1563: Brad Pitt on Desperation and Loneliness

There’s a deep existential void that often accompanies material success. When Hollywood A-listers and rock legends echo the same ancient truths as the yogic sages of old, it’s giving them a listen. In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha dissect a powerful quote from Brad Pitt—spoken at the peak of his fame—revealing the desperation hidden behind luxury, the spiritual failures of sensual indulgence, and the timeless Bhakti wisdom found in the story of the mystic sage Śaubharī Muni. Key Highlights: •⁠  ⁠Why achieving the pinnacle of material success often leads to loneliness and inner collapse •⁠  ⁠The simple but profound shift from self-mastery to spiritual surrender •⁠  ⁠What Bono, Mick Jagger, and a sage meditating underwater all have in common •⁠  ⁠Watching or society descend into Super Bowl rap battle disrespect Discover why Bhakti yoga cuts through the illusion of external success and points us to the only thing that truly satisfies: unmotivated love. 🎧 Tune in, reflect deep, and pivot toward the real treasure. #BradPittQuote #BhaktiWisdom #FameAndEmptiness #MaterialSuccess #SrimadBhagavatam #SpiritualPodcast #WisdomOfTheSages #ModernYogis #MickJagger #Bono #DesireAndDetachment #SaubhariMuni #BhaktiYogaTruths #VedantaForToday SB 9.6.45-48 ********************************************************************* LOVE THE PODCAST?
