What does John Travolta strutting through Brooklyn with two slices of pizza have to do with the Ṛg Veda’s yajña-puruṣa, the divine person behind the cosmos? In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha show how Travolta’s swagger reflects Krishna’s playful personhood in Vṛndāvana.
We explore how the Bhāgavatam reveals God “off duty”—laughing, eating with his friends, and personally searching for lost calves—while also guiding us toward fearlessness, community, and deeper spiritual focus.
Key themes include: * Travolta’s swagger as reflection of Krishna’s divine personhood * God Off Duty: yajña-puruṣa as a barefoot boy in Vṛndāvana * Why the devas were stunned by Krishna’s picnic * Fearlessness through friendship with Krishna * Sage Groups vs. Netflix rabbit holes * Prabhupāda’s final purports from Vrindāvana
