Episode description
"We Read This Last Night" is the self explanatory title of a show where we talk about stuff that we only have surface level knowledge on, but we essentially just read about it last night. In this episode, we discuss queer themes in hindu mythology, stories that elucidate the beauty, unabashed self expression and free love that came along with ancient india, from the gender fluidity of vishnu to the gender reassignment of shikhandi. Also mentioned are historical accounts of homoeroticism, from Babur's revelations to Khilji's bestfriend (lover) but most importantly - what would Sadhguru recommend you use before engaging in non procreative sex?
