What happens when an ancient devotional practice like Kirtan moves from intimate spaces to concert halls and huge audiences?

In this episode of For Soul’s Sake, Radhika Das, Stine, and Nama explore the balance between Kirtan, performance, devotion, and accessibility. Radhika reflects on his journey from small gatherings to thousands of people, and whether Kirtan can remain a sincere offering to Krishna while being shared on a larger scale.

They discuss the importance of intention, humility, music, and consciousness, the relationship between Kirtan and Japa, and what it means to enter a Kirtan space not simply to attend, but to serve.

When we think of spirituality, we often think of meditation, prayer, or pilgrimage - but what if one of the most transformative spiritual practices begins in the kitchen?

In this talk, we explore the Bhagavad Gita's profound teaching that food is more than nutrition. The consciousness, intention, and devotion behind how it's prepared can shape our own consciousness. Discover why offering food to Krishna is central to the Bhakti tradition, why prasadam is far more than a vegetarian meal, and how every meal can become an act of remembrance and devotion.

Why do we get angry, even when we're trying to live a spiritual life? In this roundtable conversation, Radhika, Nama and Stine explore the nature of anger through the lens of Bhakti, discussing its deeper causes, the role of therapy alongside spiritual practice, and how self-awareness can transform our reactions.
