1592: Something Has to Die Inside: Threshold Sorrow in Bhakti Yoga

Not all sorrow is a step backwards—sometimes, it’s the signal that real growth has begun. In this powerful Q & A episode of Wisdom of the Sages, Raghunath and Kaustubha dive deep into what one listener calls “the sorrow of losing joy in the material world.” What unfolds is a raw, insightful conversation on threshold sorrow—the strange pain of shedding old pleasures that no longer satisfy, and crossing into the unknown terrain of spiritual depth.
🎧 All Questions Answered in this Episode: • Is it normal to feel sadness when losing taste for material pleasures? • How to understand sattva guna (the mode of goodness)? • Were Lord Rāma’s exiled sons bereft of His loving affection? • How do I know if I’m doing what God intends for me to do in life?
From the bittersweet poetry of spiritual surrender to the mystery of divine separation, Raghunath and Kaustubha unpack what it means when Krishna starts cleaning out the clutter of your heart. Sometimes, enlightenment feels like heartbreak. But there’s beauty in the break.
Key Highlights: • Why “threshold sorrow” is a sign of real progress on the bhakti path • What happens when you try to relive your old joys and it just tastes like… Carvel? • Poetry can capture the bittersweet taste of spiritual growth • Why Luv and Kush weren’t spiritually shortchanged—even if their dad was Lord Rāma and they were raised by a sage in the woods • The surprising power of sattva (goodness) as more than just “calm energy” • God’s will, your purpose, and the secret of finding clarity in a confusing world
