Discover Bhakti, the timeless wisdom of the self, love, and the means to achieve lasting happiness and inner fulfillment.

At Exploring Bhakti we uncover the ancient teachings of Bhakti yoga — the yoga of divine love -- and uncover what Bhagavad Gita and Srimad Bhagavatam say about the true self, the nature of consciousness, the world, self-realization, peace, sacred love and how to reconnect with the Sweet Absolute in the joy of mutual loving exchanges, which brings the highest bliss.

For beginners and seasoned seekers alike, we explore yoga philosophy in a practical way that’s inspiring and easy to connect with and can transform your life. We maintain the richness of the yoga tradition while presenting it in a simple, authentic, and accessible way.

I’m Pranada Comtois. I’ve been living, studying, and teaching Bhakti for over 50 years, and have authored 3 award-winning books on it. Welcome.

  • 1a Heartbreak as Your Doorway to Something Deeper: Turning Pain into a Path to Our Divine Friend
    Apr 23 2026

    What do we do when life doesn’t go the way we planned—when we feel overwhelmed, heartbroken, or quietly lost despite doing everything “right”? This reflection explores how life’s challenges can become a doorway into something deeper. Through the lens of Bhakti, we begin to shift from control into relationship, from resistance into offering, and from isolation into connection with Krishna as our Divine Friend. This is a gentle, practical path for turning pain into something meaningful, personal, and transformative.

  • 35: Srimad Bhagavatam: The Heart of Bhakti Yoga & Divine Love
    Apr 16 2026

    There comes a point in the spiritual journey where doing more, learning more, and even healing more no longer satisfies the deeper ache within the heart. This episode invites you into the world of the Srimad Bhagavatam—a sacred text that doesn’t just explain reality, but reveals how to enter into a living, loving relationship with it. Moving beyond self-improvement and into devotion, we explore Bhakti as a path of connection, intimacy, and divine love—one that meets you exactly where you are and gently calls you home.

    Discover the Bhagavad Gita as a living conversation between the soul and the Divine. In this complete overview, we’ll explore its essential teachings on the self (ātma), karma, time, the yoga paths, and the awakening of the heart through bhakti, the yoga of love and relationship.

    If you’ve sensed that success or self-improvement alone can’t quiet the restlessness within, the Gita offers timeless clarity — a way to move from confusion to connection, from anxiety to anchored devotion.
