- This episode delves into profound spiritual themes, including recognising the guru and the deep lessons found in the Guru-Disciple relationship. However, the steps to perfection are not always smooth. Swami Paranthapa, a long-term disciple of Paramahamsa Vishwananda, shares insights from his journey.
Swami Paranthapa recounts significant spiritual encounters, including meetings with Hanuman, and discusses the value of friendship, the importance of taking risks for the Guru, and a recent book release. The conversation also explores Hinduism’s presence in Africa, cultural challenges, and how the Thinking Bhakti Podcast serves as a bridge between diverse cultures.

Thank you for everything you give Swami ji 🙏🏽🪷🕊️
Thank you very much !! ❤❤❤ thank you My Satgurudeva, my Absolute Lord. Thank you Swāmi Paranthapa 🙏🙏🙏🙏
What an enlightening, inspiring and touching episode, thank you Swami Parantapa for your always sincere sharing and thank you swami Revatikaanta for offering this amazing platform, it’s definitely a share🙏🏽❤️👣
Pranam and Namaskar Gurudev - from India. 🙏
It’s definitely a constant checking myself since I came across Bhakti Marga especially physically doing it “alone” as literally no one around me is on the same path.
I’ve always been a bit of an outcast and had no real connection with people as two of the reasons …I have never been a drinker and don’t eat animals. That’s considered “weird” in my world.
The more I listen to these podcasts and teachings the more noticeable it is to how everyone is running around distracting themselves ( me included ).
The ignorance to where or what their food came from is especially highlighted to me just for sensory pleasures. This is the hardest one for sure.
Thankyou so much for these talks .. I feel changes happening in a short time to the way I think and feel already.
I think the main thing for me is to try to not be so judgmental and totally withdraw from society because I know there’s so much more to learn.
Amazing podcast taking us on the journey with Guruji
How precious to listen and observe and how Guruji is with us all the time 🌻🌻🌷🌷🌷🌻💕💕💕💜💜🙏
Thank you Swami P. for sharing such pearls of wisdom. Thank you Swami R. for asking the right questions that added to our knowledge. ‘My Guru and I’ is a must read. 🌺🙏
Thank you Swamijis for this beautiful, deeply, inspiring podcast ❤
So proud of you and your work! Jai Shri Krishn!
“The flawless service I can experience is coming from Him.”
Jai Gurudev, Jai Shri Krishna
Har Har Mahadev, Jai Shree Krishna
Jai Gurudev … thanks for all the insight ❤
Jai Gurudev! Amazing❤ Thank you ❤ cant wait for the book.
Thank you Swami Revatikanta also !! 🙏🙏🙏
I've been waiting for this episode !! Haribol! Thank you...❤🙏
Hindu scriptures provide details of Hinduism all over the globe
I already love it, Jai Gurudev
Guruji lights fires on, gives full 'body blows' to privileged devotees. It goes only two ways: one gets angry, hates Him, runs away and even maligns Him (the risk He takes) or one accepts the incomprehensible fire and acts on the instruction Guruji has given.
If one accepts and obeys, Guruji takes away all the dark emotions that arise and starts to perform HUGE, HUGE miracles. Intimacy with Him is built that way.
Intimacy with Guruji is not built by jumping up and down trying to catch His attention (like a monkey, as He says). Intimacy is built by obedience to Him when He is brutal. And then He gives Himself, He gives you God :-) The sweetest Amrit that is worth being born on earth. The kind that is making Swami Paranthapa cry.
Jai to our beloved Guruji
Wow, amazkng talk, vwry inspiring.
Jai Gurudev
Beautiful conversation-so inspiring, comforting and also learned so much! Thank you both 🙏
Guys..! Good Luck WE HAVE TO SPREAD THE TRUTH TO THIS WORLD.❤
I have noticed all of them have such good deep voice
Hari Om Tat Sat 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Jai Gurudev cant wait to see u wen u come pmb
Too funny. Guruji asked Swami 'What?' when Swami said he loved Guruji in those early years. When Swami then pledged loyalty to Guruji, Guruji said, 'we'll see'. He has said that to me as well. 'We'll see' means 'When I severely test you, will you still confess love and loyalty to me?' hehe he!
Even while obeying Guruji, I thought He was a cruel bully ...until He started to show me God in very unexpected places. I can't say as yet that I love Him but I know for sure that He loves me.
did he tattoo the Vishnu Tilak? DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually it looks😂
🌹🌹❤️🙏🙏🙏 Pranam
It's a selfless love ❤
Jai Gurudev ❤

What God do the guest worship
He is just gay who feels attracted to his guru
Don't lose your salvation....
Jesus said go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation. Compare any God with Jesus, then you will know who is the true God. Krishna says Hain Karma Karo, don't worry about results.
The Bible says that we are born with Adam's sins. Jesus said repent, turn away from your sins, the kingdom of God is near.... Repent of all wrongdoings and believe in Jesus on the cross, Jesus forgave our sins.
And the Lord created us to do good and punish all wrongdoings that Jesus paid for on the cross, that is how we are freed from the cycle of karma.
Praying to a dead Jewish carpenter 😂?. No thanks I would rather pray to the Sun which sustains life on earth

The mythology of Christianity was invented by slaves of the Roman Empire to take down their masters because they extended civilization to people whose hearts were rooted in resentment which is the root of all evil slave morality at its best. Woke people are Christianity 2.0 coming to destroy their parent ideology its all karma.
