In this episode of 'Rise', Radhanath Swami expresses the importance of understanding our true self and connecting to a higher consciousness in order to be free from the effects of the flickering nature of the world.

Despite decades of advancement in science and technology, we are somehow facing increasingly complex problems to solve -- both individual and collective -- even in the most affluent nations: identity issues, high divorce rates, unexpected violence, high school dropouts, teenage pregnancy, environmental crisis, energy shortage, unemployment rates, unstable economy, rising healthcare costs, etc. Why and where is the disconnect?

As Radhanath Swami puts it, "If our fulfilment, our pleasure and meaning in life is deep then whatever happens in this ever-changing world cannot really disturb what we have achieved, within ourselves".
