Dharma, Divine Will and Surrender
In this soul-stirring episode, we step into one of the most powerful moments of the Bhagavad Gita—the battlefield where the warrior Arjuna collapses in fear and confusion. He knows what he must do, but he’s frozen. Why? Because he’s trying to control the outcome.
Through Krishna’s divine wisdom, we discover the eternal truth that liberates us from anxiety and paralysis: our job is to do our dharma—the work itself—not to control the results.
You’ll be guided through a full emotional journey—from the heavy tension of self-doubt and control, to the deep exhale of surrender. You’ll feel the release of carrying what was never yours to hold: the outcomes, opinions, and results.
By the end of this episode, you’ll have a sacred clarity on what’s truly yours to do—and what belongs to the Divine. You’ll experience a powerful self-compassion practice to release the burden of “making it all work,” and return to peace, trust, and freedom.
You’ll discover:
The real meaning of dharma—and how to live it joyfully
Why trying to control outcomes blocks divine flow
How to act from love, not fear
A heart-centered meditation to surrender control and feel instantly lighter
