The Krishna Das Pilgrim Heart Hour features Krishna Das’ no-nonsense take on everyday struggles for finding balance on the spiritual path. Through the honesty, humility and humor of his own personal experiences, he points to the possibility of navigating life’s trials with a true inner yearning for truth. His own practice of kirtan or chant is the well stone of his ability to share from his spiritual heart. As KD says, “Love is a disease - we catch it from those who have it.”

Westerners are booking flights to India—not for sightseeing, but to chant Sanskrit mantras in rice fields, live in ashrams, and rise before dawn for kirtan. What’s really going on here?
In this eye-opening episode, Raghunath speaks with anthropology PhD student Keli Lalita to explore a growing phenomenon: Westerners adopting spiritual practices rooted in ancient India. A yoga class in Brooklyn often leads to a pilgrimage in Vrindavan—and a deeper search for meaning beyond material life.
Together, they unpack the global remix of yoga culture, the anthropology of spiritual longing, and why Bhakti Yoga is drawing seekers from all walks of life.
Key Topics Include: • Why yoga retreats can feel more authentic than everyday life • How modern yoga became a cross-cultural conversation • The Hare Krishna movement and its Western embrace • Family, food, and spiritual structure through the lens of anthropology • What people are really seeking when they go to India
🎧 Subscribe now and discover why a growing number of Western seekers are trading their passports for prayer beads.
