This is the fifth and final session in a series on Anartha Nivritti—the compassionate process of recognizing and releasing false values that distort our perception of reality. Drawing from Swami Padmanabha’s book "Evolution in Divine Love," each class explores key paradigm shifts aimed at replacing outdated beliefs with deeper, truer insights. In this final class, Swami Padmanabha and friends turn...

In this fourth class of the Anartha Nivritti series, Swami Padmanabha explores the soul’s true nature as presented in Chapter 3 of Evolution in Divine Love: Mapping the Soul’s Unbroken Potential. Through nine powerful paradigm shifts, we reflect on how the soul is not only changeless and eternal, but also ever-evolving—defined not just by what we are, but by all that we can become. Topics include...

In this ongoing lecture series, we explore the deeper meaning of anartha-nivritti—not just as the removal of obstacles, but as a courageous and ongoing recalibration of our beliefs about love, God, soul, and matter. Misconceptions subtly shape our practice and distort our experience, but by honestly confronting and dethroning false values, we make room for a more stable, dynamic, and living connec...

0:00 Introduction 5:50 Although necessary to be able to receive and give unconditional love, how can we sustainably accept that we can never actually repay unconditional love? 15:00 Can the terms "pure love" and "unconditional love" be used interchangeably? 21:05 Reflection on the nuance of diversity and loving interactions; how the extraordinary life of God can appear ordinary. 27.1 36:06 How to...

Swami Padmanabha continues to radically reframe the concept of anartha-nivritti, inviting us to see it not as a mechanical elimination of faults, but as the sacred process of unlearning false values. In this session, he explores how our misunderstandings around love, God, soul, and matter are deeply interwoven—and how even partially correct conceptions can carry significant distortions when examin...

In this 5-part journey, we’ll explore the subtle yet pervasive false beliefs that often obstruct a proper understanding of bhakti, Krishna, the soul, and even the material world. As we unlearn distorted notions and release toxic frameworks, our life and practice can grow more coherent, wholesome, and deep—and, perhaps most importantly, profoundly hopeful and inspiring.

In this inspiring class, Swami Padmanabha explores the central theme of his book Evolution in Divine Love—that love is always expanding, ever-new, and full of wonder. He reflects on how Radha and Krishna experience each other freshly in every moment, and how we, too, can enter this dynamic of rediscovery in our relationships—with the Divine, with the guru, and with one another. Through stories, Sa...
