When I started this podcast there was one guest in particular that I immediately wanted to interview, but I wanted to build up an audience before doing so. Here we are two years later and I was finally able to sit down with my spiritual teacher BV Siddhanti Maharaja.
Born in India, He has been a monk for over 30 years, in the Vaisnava tradition of Bhakti Yoga. He has personally served and cared for several of the most honored and respected gurus in this tradition and is an expert on speaking on the famous sacred text of India, the Srimad Bhagavatam. He travels all over the world speaking and sharing on spiritual topics about developing love of God, and is spreading a message of divine love through the chanting of God’s names.
We discuss:
- The meaning of Bhakti Yoga, and how it's different then what we normally think of when we think of Yoga.
- Who is a true Guru and how do we find one
- The importance and wisdom of Vedic Philosophy and practices
- Developing a personal relationship with God
- An overview of one of India's most famous texts, the Srimad Bhagavatam, AKA Bhagavat Purana
- The power of conversation
- The supreme goal of life

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
