Wisdom of the Sages

1729: Are We Seeking Transformation, or Just Validation?


Listen Later

The meaning we find in scripture often reveals more about our motive than the text itself. This episode explores the uncomfortable truth: that we don't just read scripture—we often recruit it. Nearly any philosophy can be bent in the direction we're already leaning. Raghunath and Kaustubha examine how two people can read the same teaching and walk away with completely opposite conclusions, why real growth begins with examining our motives rather than merely quoting sources, the difference between being transformed by sacred texts and being justified by them, and how compassion may be the clearest measure of whether a teaching has truly been understood.
