The Krishna Das Pilgrim Heart Hour features Krishna Das’ no-nonsense take on everyday struggles for finding balance on the spiritual path. Through the honesty, humility and humor of his own personal experiences, he points to the possibility of navigating life’s trials with a true inner yearning for truth.

1593: Desire & Despair: A Vedic Case Study in Heartbreak
Manage episode 480745024 series 2602123
Content provided by David Ramella, Raghunath Cappo, and Kaustubha Das.

When the object of our desire becomes the center of our universe, and our dignity becomes the cost of the chase. In this brutally honest and strangely hilarious episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha dissect the story of King Pururava and Urvashi—a psychological case study from the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam that shows what happens when infatuation clouds the intelligence and the fantasy of love eclipses reality.
Key Highlights:
• “Desire is never far from despair” • When romance becomes a shortcut to self-worth, things get weird… fast. • Toxic masculinity? For sure. But let’s talk toxic femininity too. • The ancient Vedas meet Youth of Today lyrics and Bob Dylan—because of course they do. • “Romance keeps us in Maya”—and other unsexy truths we all need to hear • And yes, Raghunath actually has a “house axe” for intruders. Don’t ask.
This episode hits the theme head-on: that heartbreak, that confusion, that desperation we feel when we lose ourselves in the fantasy of love—and how the Bhakti path calls us to something real.
🎧 Subscribe for daily wisdom rooted in timeless texts, and walk the path of Bhakti with clarity (and a little comedy).
