1718: 3 Ferraris, Zero Peace: The Higher Taste Effect (Bhakti & Spiritual Psychology)
from Wisdom of the Sages · host Raghunath Cappo and Kaustubha Das
A higher spiritual taste doesn't negotiate with desire—it demotes it. From Govardhan Ecovillage in Maharashtra, Raghunath and Kaustubha riff on William James (father of modern psychology), the bhakti renaissance in India, and the strange way spiritual culture can make renunciation feel effortless: not by suppression, but by a new attraction taking the center of the heart. Along the way: kirtan "clubbing," deep-rooted devotion that suddenly shoots up like bamboo, and a reminder from the Bhāgavatam that when Krishna's touches the soul, even heaven, power, siddhis, and liberation start to look like broken glass next to the real thing. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?
