A Woman’s Gita: Bhagavad Gita by and for Western Women is a new podcast discussing Bhagavad-Gita, the timeless classic of Eastern Wisdom reinterpreted from the perspective of two Western female teachers who are both former monastics, Nischala Joy Devi and Kamala Rose, who have dedicated their lives to the Yoga Tradition. At a time when women’s voices are finally emerging, a feminine perspective of the wartime treatise could not be more timely.


Each episode will explore the main teachings in the Bhagavad Gita from a female perspective and describe the process of bringing the Gita to a wider audience.


--- Nischala Joy Devi ---

Nischala Joy Devi is a masterful teacher, author, and healer. She spent 25 years as a monastic in the Vedic tradition, learning all aspects of Yoga from great masters worldwide. Her teaching reflects her love of Yoga and scripture, highlighting the Bhagavad Gita, considered one of the quintessential scriptures of Yoga. The Gita, previously deemed unrelatable to Western women, has inspired Devi to adapt the teaching by infusing content and commentary with feminine-based insights and parables. Now the Bhagavad Gita, like most of her teachings, reflects a heart-centered perspective of spirituality in scripture.

--- Kamala Rose ---

Kamala Rose brings over 30 years of contemplative training, a background in Sanskrit, and a lifelong immersion in the Bhagavad Gita. She studied with traditional teachers like Srivatsa Ramaswami, several academic institutions, explored interpretive lineages through the Theosophical Society, and was shaped by a father who studied the Upanishads and a mother who nurtured her feminist and academic orientation from an early age. She has dedicated her life to preserving yoga’s wisdom tradition by making it more accessible to yoga teachers.
