1590: Dark Corners of Our Cities, Dark Corners of Our Minds

from Wisdom of the Sages · host Raghunath Cappo and Kaustubha das

This episode blends sacred aesthetics, urban design, dharmic leadership, and bhakti wisdom into one compelling conversation. A perfect listen for seekers, city dwellers, and anyone wondering why the world feels off—and how to realign it. Raghunath and Kaustubha explore a luminous vision of divine-centered living from the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam—where elephants spray perfume, love flows between citizens and leaders, and the architecture reflects a sacred inner life. But this isn't just some mythic utopia. It's a blueprint. Key Highlights: * Simone Weil's insight: "To be rooted is perhaps the most important and least recognized need of the human soul." * What Ayodhya, Delhi and the Cross Bronx Expressway tell us about spiritual disconnection * The loop of degradation—and how to break it * Lessons from Christian cathedrals, Hindu temples 🎧 Tune in now and rediscover what society looks like when it's built around the sacred root. #Bhagavatam #UrbanSpirituality #Ayodhya #DivineCenteredLife #BhaktiYoga #SpiritualArchitecture #SimoneWeil #WisdomOfTheSages #SacredCityDesign ********************************************************************* LOVE THE PODCAST?
