Episode 24: Geeta Girl Discusses Getting What You Deserve
2024/02/05
I deserve it! We have all had that thought before. I worked hard therefore I deserve the promotion. I studied hard so I deserve to get into that college. Maybe you thought, I messed up, so I deserve the punishment. But what do we really deserve? In the Geeta, Krishna reminds us that we only have a right to the effort and no right to the result. No one deserves anything – not the good fortune or the bad. The only thing you have a “right” to is the effort itself and not the outcome. If you can't impact the outcome, you may wonder why bother trying? Krishna says that no effort is ever wasted. No matter the outcome, you always learn, grow, and evolve from doing your best. And you deserve that. Don’t forget to subscribe to, rate, and review the Geeta Girl Podcast!

Listen to this episode and then tell Anger who’s boss. Don’t forget to subscribe to, rate, and review the Geeta Girl Podcast!

Episode 22: Geeta Girl Discusses Excuses Excuses Excuses!
2023/11/28
A good part of Chapter 1 in the Bhagavad Geeta is Arjun making excuses for why he doesn’t want to engage in battle with his ne’er-do-well cousins. He makes excuse after excuse for why he can’t do what he knows he has to do. Will it really do any good? They are my family- I can’t stand up to them! It will be bad for my karma if I do something! Sound familiar? In this podcast, we break down all the excuses we make to not do our duty. We discuss how we can stop making excuses and just do the right thing. Arjun had to take on his battles, and so do we.

Episode 18: Geeta Girl Discusses #WWKD: What would Krishna Do: A Conversation about Dharma for Teens (and Adults!)
2022/11/22
Are you teen? Do you have a teen? Were you a teen (though you may want to forget)? If so, you’re going to want to listen to this podcast. We discuss balancing competing priorities, dealing with peer pressure, managing growing responsibilities, and, of course, why does everyone’s social media life look better than mine? (Hmmm, maybe this podcast isn’t just for teens).  And to no one’s surprise, the Geeta holds some answers. Sharmila and Shaila take a backseat in this podcast and invited some very special young people to lead the discussion and share questions and examples from their own lives. If you have a teen in your life, we encourage you to listen to this podcast together.

Episode 17: Geeta Girl Discusses You Do You: Choosing and Doing Your Own Unique Dharma
2022/11/08
In this podcast, we discuss defining and following through with your own unique dharma or responsibility. That means doing the hard stuff even if you don’t want to. Standing up for what is the right (despite the naysaying). And following through with your responsibilities without worrying about the outcome. So focus on taking action and not on the results- like canvassing, writing postcards, phone banking, talking to friends, voting! And if things don’t go the way you hoped, you know what you have to do. Your dharma. Again (and again).

Episode 16: “Geeta Girl Discusses Dharma Decisions Decisions Decisions!”
2022/10/25
On this next season of the Geeta Girl Podcast, we focus on Dharma. Dharma in its most simplest definition is your duty. However, it is far more complex. It is doing the right thing at the right time given the context of your situation. In the first episode of this season, we talk about the complexities of doing your dharma and help answer the question, how do I know what my dharma is and how do I know if I am doing the right thing? Here’s the good news- Krishna wrote you a cheat sheet in the Bhagavad Geeta and we’re going to help break it down.

Episode 15: “Geeta Girl Discusses Free Your Mind and the Rest will Follow”
2022/06/06
Is this your inner dialogue while you are meditating? “OMMM…OMMM….oooh, I think I’ll order Thai tonight…okay, back to the breathing…OMMM…OMMM…oh, and I need to remember to set a reminder to buy dog food…FOCUS!”. If this sounds familiar to you, don’t worry, you are not alone. From the unique perspective of the Geeta, we discuss why meditation is tough for many of us, and why you need to stick to it anyway. We discuss why it’s an essential tool in combatting your anxiety and perhaps, most importantly, in soaking up every bit of that Geeta knowledge. Check out the last podcast in this latest season’s focus on combatting anxiety “Geeta Girl Discusses Free Your Mind and the Rest will Follow”.

Episode 14: Geeta Girl Discusses Cultivating Compassion
2022/04/11
Picture the person with whom you have the most challenging relationship. Do you have their image in your mind? (No judgment if you pictured them before you even finished reading the sentence.) Now what if you were able to make that relationship less difficult? Would your life be less stressful? In this podcast, we discuss Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT). Lavina Shamdasani, a student and teacher of CCT shares how to utilize this technique to see God in everyone. CCT is based on the belief that we are all born with innate compassion and tapping into that compassion for ourselves and others can take us one step closer to a life of happiness and less suffering. And who doesn’t want more of that. Listen to this podcast for practical tips on how to live a life with more compassion, empathy, and kindness - towards yourself and others.
