Have you ever felt like you're doing everything right—controlling your anger, resisting temptation, checking all the spiritual boxes—but still not finding the peace or progress you're seeking?

In this episode of The Gita in Action, we explore Bhagavad Gita 5.26 and look at why willpower alone isn’t enough to overcome the forces of desire and anger. These aren't just bad habits—they're rooted in our conditioning and ego. But Krishna doesn’t leave us hanging. He gives us a clear path forward: not by trying harder, but by surrendering deeper.
