A spiritual discourse and bhajan explanation focusing on the divine couple of Krishna and Rukmini. "For about seven years, they have promoted this: Rādhā, Rādhā, Rādhā. How old is Bhagavān Kṛṣṇa? That is the point." "In all books, in the four [aspects] of Kṛṣṇa, among the many, Rukmiṇī was there. And now they always say, 'Rādhā, Rādhā.' It's okay, but it is not Rukmiṇī and Rādhā. So, it is Rukmiṇī and Kṛṣṇa." The speaker, likely a swami or teacher, delivers a talk emphasizing the primacy of Krishna's marriage to Rukmini over the more popular focus on Radha within devotion. He discusses concepts of God, gurus, and draws an analogy to modern marital harmony. The session concludes with the group singing a bhajan, after which another speaker explains the song's spiritual meaning, describing it as a map of Kriya Yoga techniques and inner experiences leading to divine perception.
