Summary
At some point, devotion stops being a duty—and starts becoming a dialogue. In this solo Q & A episode, Kaustubha explores how spiritual life matures when it stops being mechanical and starts becoming deeply personal. With humor, clarity, and depth, he answers questions on emotional attachment, the gradations of divine love, and how to relate to God not just in theory—but in the heart.
Key Highlights:
• How to respond when someone is emotionally attached to you
• How divine love comes in different gradations of perfection
• The art of sharing bhakti without alienating others
• Moving beyond theory: when spiritual life becomes deeply personal
• Plus: a surprise Krishna miracle on a quiet dirt road
