This week on Mindrolling, Raghu and Nina chat about:

  • Moderating our consumption and doing our best to heal the earth

  • Nina’s work in preserving wilderness areas

  • Wisely receiving gifts from Mother Earth while preserving uncorrupted lands

  • The unconditional love and presence that resonates through Maharaj-ji

  • The reciprocal relationship we have with the divine

  • When Nina met Siddhi Ma, and seeing her as merged with Maharaj-ji

  • The first time Nina chanted for Siddhi Ma

  • Satsang: connecting with Maharaj-ji through community

  • Prayers to the Goddess in Nina’s new album, Bhumi Devi

“The way in which this happens is Satsang. I was with Siddhi Ma one time, and someone said, ‘How can we get closer to Maharaj-ji?’ She said, “Get together, have food, and sing the Chalisa.’” –Raghu Markus
