Summary

Could ancient yogis have tapped into a science we still don’t understand? Mystical experiences—like hearing divine messages within the heart—may sound like fantasy today, but 300 years ago a FaceTime call would’ve seemed like wizardry.

Arthur C. Clarke famously said, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore how imagination and humility may be the keys to rediscovering spiritual truths often mistaken for myth.

Highlights include:
•⁠  ⁠Why Einstein called imagination more important than knowledge
•⁠  ⁠Yoga maya vs. Maha maya: illusion that either binds or liberates
•⁠  ⁠Why Krishna never incarnates alone—and who He brings with Him
•⁠  ⁠Debunking the debunkers: why unseen doesn’t mean unreal
•⁠  ⁠Raghunath’s mantra for spiritual openness: “Could be.”

Tune in as ancient stories, modern minds, and timeless truths come together in the pages of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam.

1:52.2

why not stretch our imagination a little bit and just because our tiny little sphere of experience
