1799: Give Me a God That Sings and Dance...

RAGHUNATH CAPPO & KAUSTUBHA DAS
About this episode

"I would believe only in a God who knows how to dance." Nietzsche didn't reject God — he rejected a God who was solemn, heavy and joyless. What he wanted was a God with joy in him. He had no idea that on the other side of the world, thousands of years before he was born, that God had already been described. Raghunath and Kaustubha explore George Harrison's idea that everybody is looking for Krishna – some just don't know it yet.
Srimad Bhagavatam 10.34.20-32
