Wisdom of the Sages 1601: Where Your Mind Goes, You Go: Bhakti Yoga, Thought Power & the Inner Algorithm
Your mind is like an algorithm. Click on lust, fear, or resentment—and guess what shows up on your mental feed? In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore Yoga is a way to reset the algorithm, and explore the mind as both a garden and a walled city with guarded gates.
Drawing from James Allen’s classic As a Man Thinketh and the final verses of King Yayāti’s transformation in the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, they unpack how thought is causal, attention is destiny, and bhakti is the ultimate reprogramming of the heart.
🔑 Key Highlights:
• James Allen meets the Bhagavatam: “Plant good seeds or get weeds. Period.” • Guard the gates of the senses like your mental Wi-Fi password • Why you should probably skip that luxury cruise and chant instead • When kitchen gossip gets karmic—Mara’s chef-side sādhanā • “Shoot the messenger,” “Relinquish your imaginary positions,” and other questionable t-shirt ideas
Whether you’re dealing with asparagus beds or mental breakdowns, this episode brings it all back to one thing: where your mind goes, you go.
