Open Heart Conversations: Bhakti Yoga with Radhanath Swami @ United Palace
May 19 @ 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm
Open Heart Conversations: Bhakti Yoga with Radhanath Swami @ United Palace

Join Rev. Arda Itez and Rev. Dr. Jose Roman for a very special Open Heart Conversation to explore the path of Bhakti-yoga with one of its most beloved spiritual leaders and NY Times best-selling author, his holiness Radhanath Swami, with music by Jahnavi Harrison and friends.

Introduced to the West as The International Society For Krishna Consciousness in 1966 by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Bhakti-yoga has traceable roots to the 1st millennium, BCE. What came to be known as the “Hare Krishna Movement” developed into one of the most influential and important spiritual and social reformations in US history.

Sometimes referred to as “love for love’s sake,” Bhakti is one of the four yogic paths to enlightenment and the essence of spiritual perfection, which is to awaken ecstatic love for God.

What was it about the Bhakti tradition that inspired so many people to embrace it as their own?

Who are the Hare Krishnas?

What are the Bhakti tenets, spiritual practices and beliefs?

Discover the beauty behind one of the oldest, most well-known and often misunderstood spiritual traditions, and what led to his life of devotion directly from Radhanath Swami himself.
