Episode description

Rumi spoke of a field beyond right and wrong — and in Krishna's playful pastimes we discover how breaking the rules can reveal the highest good.

How can Krishna, the Supreme Good, also be a thief, a liar, a womanizer, and even a killer? Drawing on Rumi's mystical poetry and the Upanishadic vision of fullness, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore how Krishna's so-called immorality reveals truths that transcend all dualities.

Join us as we uncover the paradox of divinity, where Krishna's playful rascality leads us to the soul's true resting place: beyond the world's petty dualities, in the harmony of divine love.

Srimad Bhagavatam 10.8.25-31
