Why does it feel like no matter how much we achieve, heal, learn, or improve ourselves, something still feels missing?
In this episode of Gita in Action, we explore a powerful teaching from Bhagavad Gita 9.12–9.13, where Krishna explains why even sincere effort — including spiritual effort — can leave us feeling unfulfilled when God isn’t at the center, and how a different orientation of the heart leads to steadiness and clarity.
We talk about the “square peg problem”: how we try to fill the heart with careers, relationships, self-help, success, and even spirituality, only to discover that none of them quite fit. Not because they’re bad or meaningless — but because they’re not meant to replace the source of love and fulfillment.
Through practical examples, personal stories, and reflections on devotion, surrender, and the nature of great souls (mahatmas), this episode shows how the endless search finally comes to rest — not through repression or denial, but through real connection with Krishna, the inexhaustible source of joy.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re running hard but still not arriving, this conversation offers clarity, hope, and a gentler way forward.
