One of the most sacred dynamics in all of yoga culture - the relationship between teacher and student—has become both feared and misunderstood as it’s been transferred from India to the West. In this potent episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore how spiritual truth flows not from information alone, but from affection, humility, and mutual sincerity. What unfolds is a spirited, honest, and occasionally hilarious exploration of how and why the guru-disciple model endures—even in an age where trust is hard to come by and everyone’s got an “enlightenment moment” in their Instagram bio.

Key Highlights: •⁠ ⁠“Victim mentality kills growth.” •⁠ ⁠A lesson from Mahābhārata: If you can’t find someone better than you, you’re probably not looking hard enough •⁠ ⁠Understanding the friendliness and familiarity with a teacher •⁠ ⁠Transmission of truth is never just intellectual—it’s relational

This episode is a call to seek wisdom where it’s real, not just where it’s trending.
