14. The Ego Trap in Bhakti: Insights from the Ishavasya Upanishad
Description
In this episode, Swamiji explores the subtle yet profound danger of spiritual pride, drawing transformative insights from the Ishavasya Upanishad. Through the divine story of Shree Krishna and Hanumanji, listeners will discover how even the most devoted seekers—like Satyabhama, Garud, and Sudarshan Chakra—can fall prey to ego, and how the Lord’s grace gently dismantles this illusion to restore humility and devotion.
Building upon our previous episode about the harmony between effort and spirituality, this discussion deepens your understanding of how hidden pride can derail spiritual progress, and why true bhakti demands surrender, sincerity, and an undivided heart. Tune in to enrich your journey into the philosophical depths of the Upanishads and elevate your quest for truth, devotion, and enlightenment.
