1803: Everything Is Nothing | George Harrison and the Krishna Mantra
About this episode
You need people who have everything to show you that everything is nothing. George Harrison had wealth, fame, mansions, cars — everything material desire could want. And he said just sitting down and chanting the Hare Krishna mantra gives more happiness than all of it. "The response that comes from chanting is bliss — a much higher taste than any happiness found in the material world." Raghunath and Kaustubha explore that alongside the Yugala Gīta — where the gopīs at the highest perfectional stage are doing exactly what George did on a boat with John Lennon sailing through the Greek islands. Glorifying Krishna. In bhakti, the means and the end are the same thing.
Srimad Bhagavatam 10.35.20-26
