It's one of the oldest questions in philosophy \u2014 and the Srimad Bhagavatam answers it through the R\u0101sa L\u012bl\u0101. A full cup doesn't drink. It overflows. Krishna doesn't enjoy with the gop\u012bs the way we pursue romance \u2014 trying to fill something missing. He's imparting what's already overflowing. We're different. When we try to enjoy others, we're trying to enjoy what was never ours. Raghunath and Kaustubha explore that distinction alongside one of the deepest questions in Vedic thought \u2014 and the answer that only bhakti can give.  Srimad Bhagavatam 10.30.32-34  ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST? WE ARE COMMUNITY SUPPORTED AND WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO JOIN!
