In this deep and heartfelt episode of A Women’s Gita, Nischala Joy Devi and Kamala Rose take us into the heart of Chapter 2 of the Bhagavad Gita, exploring verses 62–64—a section rich with psychological insight and practical wisdom.

Together, they examine how desire leads to attachment, how attachment breeds anger and delusion, and how yogic practices—especially the cultivation of neutrality and tapas—help us navigate our inner and outer worlds with grace.

Key topics in this episode include:

• The chain reaction from desire to suffering in the Gita
• The modern relevance of sense objects and attachment
• Neutrality vs. detachment—what’s the difference?
• The concept of tapas as inner heat and transformation
• Practical ways to stay centered in an overstimulated world
• Navigating female competition through yogic sisterhood
• The cost of anger—from heart health to spiritual clarity

Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or new to these teachings, this episode offers timely reflections on how to be in the world, but not of it.
