The Bhagavad Gita comes alive in Shubhraji’s live streaming sessions. As a 14-year student I can say that Shubhraji’s online presentation is as dynamic as she is in person. It feels like she’s here in the room with me and I am receiving a personal class!

The online sessions are very powerful and the fact that we have the audio files of each session makes it possible to listen to them many times. Also the continuity at one’s own convenience is invaluable. The clarity and simplicity and depth of Shubhraji’s teaching is very unique.
—Kiran Mahendroo, Ridgewood, NJ
 
 
Shubhraji deciphered the complexities of the text with such ease and mastery of the subject. The cryptic explanation available in most current translations was replaced by a fresh, more modern approach which, for me personally, culminated in a lot of ‘aha’ moments when the meaning behind some verses suddenly became amazingly clear.
