1580: Ravana vs. Hanuman: How to Approach the Divine Feminine & Not Get Smoked
Manage episode 478263171 series 2602123
The Ramayana doesn’t just tell an ancient story—it reveals eternal truths. In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore one of the most profound contrasts in the epic: how Ravana and Hanuman each approach Sita.
What unfolds is not just mythological drama—it’s a powerful spiritual teaching. Sita is the personification of good fortune herself. In bhakti wisdom, how we approach her—whether with reverence and devotion or with a mood of exploitation—determines the auspiciousness or inauspiciousness that flows though our lives.
This isn’t just about Sita and Ravana. It’s about all of us and the world around us.
And yes, the Pope gets a shout-out. So do monkeys with torches.
Key Highlights: * Ravana, Hanuman, and the spiritual do’s and don’ts of divine energy * Why auspiciousness isn’t random—it’s relational * The Pope, Easter, and holy humility * Monkeys vs. modern weapons: Why the jungle army wins * The arc of the moral universe is long—but don’t worry, zoom out * Why Sita’s curse beat Ravana’s black magic
🎧 Tune in for timeless wisdom, epic storytelling, and spiritual depth—with just enough monkey mischief to keep it fun.
