1663: Not Me, Not Mine: Walt Whitman & the Yogis Agree—Our Bodies Are On Loan


Listen Later

Walt Whitman's startling line—"every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you"—meets the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, where Nārada Muni confronts two proud sons of Kubera and forces them to consider: who really owns the body? From Whitman's atoms to the yogic teaching "not me, not mine," we uncover the liberating truth that the body is a vehicle on loan, entrusted for a higher purpose. Along the way we also explore how sages wield the power to curse—and why those curses are often hidden blessings.

Srimad Bhagavatam 10.10.1-12
