In this episode respected geologist and geographer Patrick Nunn shares insights into his ground-breaking research into ancient indigenous cultures and their oral traditions. Nunn's work shows that these pre-literate societies' verbally transmitted myths and legends actually encode truthful information about ancient catastrophic sea level rise and the resultant land loss and trauma. Astonishing cross-correlations between geographical and geological evidence and such stories dating back as much as 13,000 years have been established, validating ancient stories that were once dismissed as fable and imaginative fabrication. Nunn's work supports the idea that while mainstream culture makes humanity look like a species with amnesia, many indigenous cultures have succeeded in remembering at least some of their roots—roots reaching back thousands of years. Special Guest: Patrick Nunn.

A JOURNEY THROUGH LIFETIMES with DENA MERRIAM   “To make steel, you have to go through fire.” – author Dena Merriam, on growth through challenges   “The foundation of the Universe is love.” – author Dena Merriam       Episode Summary:   Today we talk about past lives, past lives, and past lives!   Dena Merriam is an author, storyteller and founder of the Global Peace Initiative for Women -- bringing spiritual resources to address critical global challenges, such as conflict, social justice, and ecological scarring of the earth.   Her first book “Journey Through Time, a Spiritual Memoir of Life, Death and Rebirth” takes us on a journey back through seven consecutive lives, revealing the intricate patterns that emerge as one life leads into another. Her second book, “The Untold Stories of Sita, an Empowering Tale for Our Time” takes us back to a much earlier age, several thousand years BCE to a pre-patriarchal era when humanity had not fully separated itself from the natural world. Her third book, “When the Bright Moon Rises: The Awakening of Ancient Memories”, is currently out. She has a fourth book in the works.     Listen in to hear how Dena came to know all of her previous lives and the tapestry of interconnectedness between them.         Topics We Discuss: [3:55]  Dena's spontaneous recollection of 7 previous and interconnected lives, and her investigation in today's world to validate her memories. Recalling pre-war Russia and WW2 in Europe while trying to navigate her current life. Being skeptical at first, Dena traveled to those locations to confirm that her memories were valid.   [7:18] How patterns, aspirations and desires emerged like a beautiful mandala interweaving lives.   [8:10] there's no set timeframe on how long you have to wait to come back into a new incarnation. The flexibility of time in non-[physical dimensions. When the conditions are right, we “take life”.   [9:55] How people and places stimulate her ancient memories.   [11:20] Visiting a temple in India caused spontaneous recollection of a painful experience of love lost. A time without warfare. A time of simple pleasures and peaceful, joyful life.   [14:52] Recalling a life in China, the wisdom of the Tao, and a great spiritual depth.   [16:21] Spiritual lessons, knowledge, wisdom, awakenings. How her experiences changed her relationship with death, which she calls the next frontier of science. Along with acknowledging other dimensional beings – beings we don't see. Understanding consciousness separate from the material form, separate from the body.   [18:52] An exercise: take down the highlights of this life – the best and the worst of it.   [19:40] The foundation of the universe is love. The mind boggling patience and love that is poured from these other realms.   [20:56] The alignment for Dena to found the Global Peace Initiative for Women with lessons from previous lives. Recollections from previous pre-patriarchal times. The contribution to create more gender balance.   [27:31] Future life memories, or life blueprints, or likely scenarios, or potentialities. How we can tap into and create our future.   [30:50] Exercise: what is left undone for you?   [32:06] Most people are creating unconsciously; reacting to circumstances vs consciously creating.   [32:38] The two reasons to reincarnate: karma, or service. (Reference “Life, Death and the Space Between” episode #231 “Being Ram Dass”.)   [35:46] The complexity of karma. Process of learning, awakening, rectifying imbalances. Our own thought and behavior habits/patterns. Western misunderstanding of the concept of karma.   [38:44] Dena's biggest takeaways... The power of love from the great teachers and the guidance we receive. The overwhelming outpouring of love from beings that we cannot see.   [41:01] Dena's most significant lifetimes. The biggest moments of transformation.   [42:33] A fully awakened person remembers all their lifetimes and history. Akashic records.   [43:51] Many people have glimpses of past lives. Self-reflection plus meditation is a path toward remembering. We just need ask for help. [44:30] Dena answers Amy's speed round questions.   FOLLOW Dena Merriam   You can find Dena Merriam's writings wherever books are sold.   You can find out more about the Global Peace Initiative for Women here: Website     SUPPORT DR.

Dena Merriam, the founder of the Global Peace Initiative of Women, shares her third book, When the Bright Moon Rises: The Awakening of Ancient Memories. Dena shares a rich and extensive story of her past lives that begins in Vedic India around the 9th century B.C.E. A sweeping story of love and compassion and living with grace and inner peace.

Dena is a long-time meditation practitioner in the lineage of Kriya Yoga. She came in contact with her guru Paramhansa Yogananda at the age of 20, long after he had left his physical form, and devoted many years to practicing his teachings and studying the texts of the ancient Vedic tradition. During her years of meditation, many vivid memories of past births began to emerge, revealing an intricate and subtle patten of cause and effect, the law of karmic unfolding. These memories became the subject of her books. The purpose of sharing these intimate stories was to help people see the long arch of their life, whether they retain memories or not, to help overcome fear and anxiety about death, to understand more fully the workings of cause and effect and to know that each one of us, moment to moment, is creating the blueprint for our future. Her first book My Journey through Time: A Spiritual Memoir of Life, Death and Rebirth takes Dena on a journey back through seven consecutive lives, revealing the intricate patterns that emerge as one life leads into another, picking up and furthering themes initiated at an earlier time. Her second book The Untold Story of Sita: An Empowering Tale for our Time takes the reader back to a much earlier age, several thousand years b.c.e. to a pre-patriarchal era when humanity had not fully separated itself from the natural world. There are many messages from that time that are particularly relevant today. A third book called When the Bright Moon Rises: Awakening Ancient Memories will be released in the fall of 2020. A fourth book is also in the works: The Seeds of Satya Yuga recounts memories of a life in a far higher age and how events in that life effected subsequent births, carving a path for the soul's awakening. Dena's story is the story of each one of us, of course with much variation. The history of each one of us is filled with patterns and interweavings, that unfolding of so many events, the birth and fulfillment of desires and aspirations, loss and gain, all of which have made us who we are today. While on her own spiritual journey of awakening, Dena has been active in the public sphere. Having founded the non-profit organization The Global Peace Initiative of Women in 2002, she has worked to bring spiritual voices to address global challenges. She has spoken in many forums on the need for a shift in consciousness if we are to address successfully ecological decline, economic and gender imbalance, climate instability, violence and other critical issues. Before writing about her own spiritual experiences, Dena wrote about art and spirituality, publishing a number of books on contemporary artists and for some years editing the magazine Sculpture Review. She received her Master's Degree from Columbia University, has served on numerous boards and in 2014 received the Niwano Peace Prize for her international work.

What if you could track your deepest soul mate love relationship through your incarnational cycle? That is exactly what Dena Merriam's latest book When the Bright Moon Rises: The Awakening of Ancient Memories is all about. . It is a love story between the sages and the cosmic forces known as the deities and love between two individuals seeking to express this universal force of love that exists within us all. It is also a study of karma, the cosmic law of cause and effect. There is so much wisdom to be gained by not only understanding the nature of love between human partners, but also how this is a reflection of the divine love that is available to all of us.

His career spans over four decades and he was a distinguished disciple of the late legendary maestro Ustad Ali Akbar Khan. Rajeev has received many honors including India's highest government award in the arts, the esteemed Sangeet Natak Akademi Award in 2000.

Some people experience past life memories through past life regression. Dena's memories returned spontaneously in conjunction with her meditation practice.Dena says the memory of her past lives was so vivid she would enter a location and then realize it was familiar and that would trigger vivid scenery and other images of that past incarnation. When the Bright Moon Rises: The Awakening of Ancient Memories is Dena's third book about her past life memories. She writes in novel form about a love story that spans 10,000 years and she includes the between life time encounters with a spirit guide who offers support and coaching in the interim. The locations are India and China. We learn through the characters about the history of the eras and what it might be like to experience knowing the purpose of each incarnation and knowing death is not final.Past life awareness can sometimes offer healing in the present incarnation. Dena's memories from this past life saga have reconnected her to a love of poetry. And now the poems have begun to flow again. ---   Bio: Dena is a long-time meditation practitioner in the lineage of Kriya Yoga.

Antes de ayer, jueves, 24 de septiembre, TOMA UNO cumplía exactamente 47 años desde su primer programa. Y esta vez lo celebramos ya comenzada la temporada número 48. Y lo queremos hacer rodeados de amigos. Nos encanta celebrar aniversarios. Estamos muy orgullosos de cumplir años haciendo lo de siempre: radio. Es un privilegio. Además, es una de las mejores maneras de manifestar públicamente el respeto y el agradecimiento hacia quienes estáis a nuestro lado. Tener memoria siempre es bueno. Y pensamos conservarla y compartirla. "Era mucho mayor entonces. Soy más joven ahora". Así podíamos escuchar en “My Back Pages”, una canción grabada en la primavera de 1964 por Bob Dylan para su álbum de aquel mismo año Another Side Of Bob Dylan. Lo hizo con el título provisional de “Ancient Memories” y acompañándose exclusivamente de su guitarra con una melodía original muy parecida a "The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll" de su disco anterior. Para abrir nuestro programa de hoy hemos querido recordarla en directo durante 1992 en la conmemoración de los primeros 30 años de la carrera del bardo. Una versión en la que intervenían por orden de aparición: Roger McGuinn, Tom Petty, Neil Young, Eric Clapton, el propio Dylan y George Harrison. Pura Americana. Lloyd Green y Jay Dee Maness, dos de los más grandes instrumentistas de steel guitar, intervinieron en distintas canciones de un álbum de los Byrds titulado Sweetheart of the Rodeo, convertido en la quinta esencia del country rock en 1968. Cuando se cumplió el medio siglo de su publicación, los dos resucitaron conjuntamente aquel disco seminal bajo el nombre de Journey to the Beginning: A Steel Guitar Tribute to the Byrds, una recreación instrumental canción a canción de las 11 que formaron Sweetheart of the Rodeo… pero con un añadido; y es que su tema de cierre fue esta versión del que fuera tema de apertura "You Ain’t Goin 'Nowhere", la legendaria composición de Bob Dylan. Para la ocasión contaron con las voces de Jim Lauderdale, Jeff Hanna de la Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Richie Furay de Buffalo Springfield y Poco, y Herb Pedersen de la Desert Rose Band, además de la mandolina de Sam Bush. El día en que se cumplió el primer aniversario de la muerte de “el Beatle tranquilo” tenía lugar en el Royal Albert Hall de Londres un concierto homenaje a su figura y su música dirigido por uno de sus grandes amigos, Eric Clapton. Al año siguiente veía la luz Concert for George: A Celebration of the Life and Music of George Harrison donde Tom Petty, viejo compañero de George Harrison en los Travelling Wilburys, recordaba “I Need You”, un corte de Help!, el quinto álbum en la discografía de los Beatles. En la versión original de "I Need You" Harrison se desperezaba como compositor y aparecía incluso como cantante solista, además de demostrar sus habilidades como guitarrista. En 1994, dentro del proyecto Red Hot + Country para luchar contra el SIDA, Suzy Bogguss, Alison Krauss y Kathy Mattea unieron sus voces con las de Crosby, Stills & Nash para realizar esta versión antológica de un clásico tan significativo como “Teach Your Children”, que había sido grabado a finales de Octubre de 1969 por aquel supergrupo nacido en las colinas de Laurel Canyon, con la incorporación de Neil Young, para que formara parte del álbum Déjà Vu. Una canción pacifista creada por Graham Nash a la que Stephen Stills incorporó un medio tiempo de country con el añadido del steel guitar de Jerry Garcia, líder de Grateful Dead. Con la introducción original de voz y guitarra de su creador, Kris Kristofferson, y el impecable arrope instrumental de Byron House, Sam Bush, Jon Randall y Randy Scruggs, Emmylou Harris cantaba “The Pilgrim (Chapter 33)” del veterano e influyente cantante y compositor, además de actor. Formó parte de The Silver Tongued Devil And I, el segundo álbum del tejano publicado en 1971. Garth Brooks tuvo una especial significación en la década de los 90, rompiendo casi todas las barreras que la country music había tenido hasta entonces. Criticado hasta la extenuación por los defensores de la supuesta pureza, se retiró de la primera línea durante demasiados años, aunque nunca abandonó del todo. Su regreso oficial no le ha devuelto la popularidad de entonces, pero sigue dejando momentos muy brillantes. Hace siete años lanzó la caja de ocho discos Blame it All on My Roots: Five Decades of Influences. Además de dos CDS recopilando sus éxitos, un DVD con 33 de sus vídeos y otro con su show de Las Vegas que llamó The Ultimate Hits, incluía cuatro CDs con sus canciones favoritas entre las que encontramos “Amie”, un clásico imperdible de la Pure Prairie League, que formó parte de Bustin' Out, un año antes de que comenzara TOMA UNO, y se editó en single en 1975 a instancias de Lenny Kaye, guitarrista de Patti Smith. En 1970, la Nitty Gritty Dirt Band lanzó el álbum Uncle Charlie & His Dog Teddy, una mezcla serena y reposada de country con el folk de California, donde aparecía una luminosa versión del clásico de Jerry Jeff Walker "Mr. Bojangles". Cuando se cumplieron 38 años de aquella grabación, el grupo resucitó el tema con la incorporación de dos artistas compañeros de sello discográfico: Keith Urban y Dierks Bentley. Seguimos con canciones que son fundamentales en la historia de la música. Siempre, con la ayuda de los amigos… Por eso hemos recordado que han pasado 50 años desde que James Taylor publicara su segundo álbum en solitario Sweet Baby James, el que definitivamente impulsó su carrera y determinó un futuro como contador de historias que le ha convertido en un puntal de la Americana. La brillantez de James Taylor se pone de manifiesto en cada uno de sus trabajos, aunque casi todos vienen a coincidir en que Sweet Baby James es el que mejor describe sus formas estilísticas, una vez se hubo afincado en California. Pero no olvidemos que su debut en solitario llegó en 1969 con un álbum homónimo grabado para Apple Records con el apoyo de los propios Beatles. El, por ejemplo, los recordó en directo en este curiosa versión de “With A Little Help From My Friends”, que llevó a su propio terreno desde aquel Sgt. Pepper seminal de 1967. La pandemia ha provocado el aislamiento de muchos, pero han sido muchos artistas de Americana los que han procurado mantener el contacto con su gente gracias a las redes sociales. La familia Nelson ha sido de las más activas. Lukas, por ejemplo, ha instaurado sus Quarantunes Evening Session. La semana pasada, colgaba en su canal de YouTube una versión entrañable de “September Song” con The Promise Of The Real, donde milita su hermano Micah, y contando con su padre, Willie, tocando su inseparable Trigger. “September Song” es un estándar de los años 30 debido a la inspiración de Kurt Weill y Maxwell Anderson convertido en uno de los favoritos de Willie Nelson y que este incluyó en su álbum Stardust. En 1959 los Four Flickers dieron a conocer “Long Tall Texan”, una canción de Henry Strzelecki, uno de los miembros de este grupo de Birmingham, en Alabama, que se inició en el country y pasó al doo-woop de. Por eso no resulta extraño que los Beach Boys la incorporarán a su álbum Beach Boys Concert en el 64. Lo que resultó más sorprendente es que la eligieran 32 años más tarde para interpretarla en Stars and Stripes, Vol. 1, un disco que grabaron con artistas cercanos a Nashville. Así lo hicieron junto a Doug Supernaw, un tejano de Houston que se trasladó a la Music City a finales de los 80, debutando en 1993 con el álbum Red And Rio Grande, un disco equilibrado entre canciones propias y algunas otras de los compositores básicos de aquellos años. Arkie Shibley and His Mountain Dew Boys grabaron en 1950 “Hot Rod Race”, un tema que cinco años después se convertiría en “Hot Rod Lincoln”, cuando Charley Ryan & The Livingston Bros la editaron en Souvenir Records. Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen, una formación favorita desde los comienzos de TOMA UNO, la grabó en el 71 para su álbum Lost In The Ozone y Asleep At The Wheel la enmarcaron en Western Standard Time, otro de esos discos imprescindibles para viajar por carretera. Pero hoy hemos recurrido a 1993 cuando el actor Jim Varney, un nativo de Lexington, en Kentucky, y Ricky Skaggs la actualizaron para la banda sonora de la película The Beverly Hillbilies, que llevó al cine la serie televisiva. Varney, que murió en 2000, hizo el papel de Jed Clampett. Tras la ruptura de los Eagles, se había comentado que Don Henley y Glenn Frey habían vuelto a trabajar juntos para rescatar algunas canciones inéditas de la formación de cara a un enésimo disco de éxitos y que, incluso, se podría hablar de un regreso del grupo. Esos rumores no pasaron de ahí. En pleno 1993, 20 años después de comenzar TOMA UNO, Don Henley e Irving Azoff, presidente de Giant Records, se pusieron a trabajar en un antiguo proyecto del batería. Consistía en que algunos de los artistas de country más populares por entonces se reunieran en un álbum interpretando versiones de los éxitos de los Eagles. El 40% de los royalties estarían destinados al proyecto Walden Woods, que Henley estableció en 1990 para proteger la tierra alrededor de Concord, en Massachusetts, donde Henry David Thoreau escribió el clásico Walden. El resultado fue Common Thread: The Songs Of The Eagles, un disco imprescindible que fue premiado por la CMA como álbum del año. En diciembre se estrenaba un video protagonizado por Travis Tritt en el que se reunía con la banda al completo para una nueva versión de "Take It Easy". Así se inició oficialmente su reunión. Así cerramos esta vez nuestra celebración de un aniversario más. Pensamos seguir contando. Escuchar audio
