Discover the 20 Virtues for Acquiring Divine Knowledge Through Krishna’s Grace as we explore Krishna's teachings in the Bhagavad Gita, specifically verses 13.13 to 13.19.

These virtues, He explains, are vital for those seeking to understand Brahman, the infinite reality beyond form and perception. This episode highlights Krishna’s emphasis on bhakti (devotion) and the grace needed to truly comprehend divine wisdom. Knowledge alone is not enough; it is through the grace of Krishna that seekers can gain insight into the mysteries of existence and reach the ultimate state of realization.
