1628: The Mind Is the Altar: Mental Worship, Bhakti Yoga & Inner Transformation

What matters most in yoga isn’t the ritual—it’s the transformation of the mind and heart.

In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore the practice of manasa pūjā (mental worship) through the story of Vasudeva mentally offering charity while imprisoned. They unpack why internal devotion is not only valid—but often more powerful than external performance. Whether you’re on a yoga mat or stuck in traffic, your inner world is where the real yoga happens.

🎯 Takeaways: •⁠  ⁠Why the mind is the true altar in bhakti yoga •⁠  ⁠How to avoid spiritual burnout by going beyond mechanical practice •⁠  ⁠A bizarre story of mental sweet rice—and a very real burn •⁠  ⁠Tips for making your worship alive, even when life gets in the way

Tune in to explore the inner essence of yoga—and why even your thoughts can be an offering.
