About this episode
When devotion turns into performance, honesty becomes the new yoga. In this powerful conversation with Jiva G, Raghunath explores how 12-Step recovery principles blend seamlessly with bhakti yoga to heal the heart. Together they unpack spiritual bypassing, codependency, trauma, and the courage to drop the mask. It's raw, funny, and deeply transformative—showing that real bhakti isn't about perfection, it's about honesty, humility, and doing the inner work that makes love real.
