  • A renewing experience

    Listening to Raghu's discussions is a renewing and battery recharging experience. When he interviewed on my own podcast, Raghu brought that same great spirit and energy that he brings forth here.

  • Didn’t listen to guest

    I found this podcast by searching the name of the guest because other interviews with her were really profound. I understand that the host and guest have some shared history, but the host was just interested in promoted his agenda and he kept glazing over her comments and ignoring the fact that the guest’s new book is a really incredible contribution to the world. Disappointing.

  • Episode 573: Post-Truth World

    Longtime fan of yours and the network. Attended Ram Dass’s memorial service in Maui. This was my first episode after not listening for a while. This was the most depressing, resentment-filled, and politically biased thing I have ever heard from BHN. Guest did not come off as a spiritually aware person in the least. Appreciated your attempt to bring some levity. Hoping this was just a fluke. “Wrong Story” indeed.

  • Ep.# 571 Musical Inspirers

    This was a very enjoyable episode with interesting give and take between the participants. I remember clearly Ram Dass’ mentioning in his writings intending to attend a Moody Blues Concert. They too were ever in search of the Lost Chord.
