The Hare Krishna movement didn't start with chanting monks in airports, it began over 500 years ago with a Bengali mystic named Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. This video traces the full history of Gaudiya Vaishnavism, from its roots in 16th-century devotional Hinduism to its transformation into the global ISKCON movement, brought to the West by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada in 1965. We cover the theology of Krishna Consciousness, the bhakti tradition, and how an obscure regional sect became one of the most visible spiritual movements in modern history.Written by Anmol Kohli Co-written by Filip HolmFind me and my music here:https://linktr.ee/filipholmSupport Let's Talk Religion on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/letstalkreligion Or through a one-time donation: https://paypal.me/talkreligiondonateSources/Recommended Reading:Swami Tapasyananda, Bhakti Schools of Vedanta (Sri Ramakrishna Math Chennai,1990).o Chapter on ‘Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu: Life', pages 323-407.o Chapter on ‘Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu: Philosophy', pages 408-451.Bryant, Edwin (2004).

What makes a properly made mint julep much more complex than people expect? How did an Indian revolutionary leader end up creating one of Japan's most famous curry recipes? How did a recipe collected during a 1930s concert tour in Indonesia become the legendary Queen Mother's Cake, different from every other chocolate cake you've ever had? In this episode of the Unreserved Wine Talk podcast, I'm chatting with James Chatto, co-author of the terrific new book Acquired Tastes: The Lives and Recipes of Eight Culinary Ambassadors.

I'll choose three people randomly from those who contact me. Good luck!   Highlights What makes the mint julep tradition at Oxford both fascinating and deeply complicated? Why did a simple rum drink discovered in Cuba become one of America's most iconic cocktails? What hidden history was uncovered behind the luxurious dish Lobster Newberg? How did a Bengali revolutionary leave a lasting mark on Japanese curry culture? What made Jan Smeterlin's chocolate cake unforgettable enough to become a royal favorite? Why does James believe food is such a powerful and lasting carrier of memory? Which story in the book seemed so improbable that James doubted it until the historical evidence confirmed it? What personal objects would James choose to display in a museum about his life?   About James Chatto James Chatto read English at New College, Oxford, before becoming an actor and musician; today, he is one of Canada's best-known writers on the subjects of food and drink.

Plant Thinkers of Twentieth-Century Bengal (Oxford UP, 2024) by Sumana Roy takes an unexpected cast of writers and artists and, in studying their work as ‘plant thinkers', looks at how their stories and songs, art and films, and, of course, the idiomatic affected Bengali life and thought. Forest and garden, grass and root, weeds and magical plants—supported by a foliage of thought that allowed them to see beyond the botanical, Rabindranath Tagore, Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay, Jibanananda Das, Shakti Chattopadhyay, Satyajit Ray, and others derived their worldview, their poetics and politics, from the plant world. Jagadish Chandra Bose's scientific experiments, his research and the philosophy that propelled it, religions and rituals that involved an affective relationship with the natural world, a subterranean invocation of plant philosophy in actions and words, in living and in creative practice, and the political possibilities beyond the nation state that such thinking generated give this book its sap and flow. What might we take from these plant thinkers to rehabilitate our consciousness today?

It's 1970 in Winnipeg, and a young Bengali bride has just arrived in Canada to marry a man she's never met. But the husband waiting for her is hiding a secret, and the tight-knit immigrant community she's stepping into is holding more than a few of its own. Three couples. A doctor with a double life. A marriage frozen by grief. Two students being pulled apart by the new world around them. And one unexpected arrival who refuses to behave the way anyone needs her to. Theatre critic Glenn Sumi calls New by Pamela Mala Sinha "specific in its details but universal in its themes" and one of the best new Canadian plays in years.And if you're looking for more great plays to listen to, we highly recommend our PlayME recording of Uncle Vanya by Anton Chekhov, adapted by Liisa Reppo-Martell, featuring some truly incredible performances, including actor Ali Kazmi, who plays Qasim in this production of New.NEW features: Ali Kazmi, Lisa Ryder, Zorana Sadiq, Ellora Patnaik, Shelly Antony, Fuad Ahmed and Pamela Mala Sinha.

I'm taking a little break over the Easter holidays, but I didn't want you to miss this episode, because it's the final one in our postpartum series, part of this season on The Reality of Birth. Across this series, we've explored what life is really like after birth—the joys, the challenges, the surprises, and all the moments in between. We've talked about sleep, emotional shifts, body changes, identity, and the real realities of those first few weeks with a newborn.For this final episode, I'm revisiting a conversation I had with fellow doula Maddie McMahon, all about breastfeeding—one of the most rewarding, yet often misunderstood, parts of postpartum life. We get into the practical challenges, the emotional highs and lows, and what it really takes to navigate feeding in those early weeks.Sit back, relax, and enjoy this important discussion while I recharge over the holidays.

Jhumpa Lahiri, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning short story collection “Interpreter of Maladies,” grew up in a Bengali immigrant family in New England and fell in love with literature at a young age. That early passion led her to writing. In this episode, Lahiri talks about the trajectory of her career, including her decision to move to Rome in 2012. She also discusses how translation continues to shape her work in the classroom and on the page. Lahiri will accept the 2026 St. Louis Literary Award, presented annually by St. Louis University, at a ceremony at the Sheldon Concert Hall on April 8.

On December 31st, 1600, Queen Elizabeth I signed a charter. What she created wasn't a trading company. It was the world's first corporate empire — and everything that followed was a hostile takeover disguised as commerce.This is the history of the East India Company and the Dutch East India Company (VOC) — two corporations that rewrote the history of India, the British Empire, and modern finance in a single century. This isn't the version they taught you in school. This is how it actually worked.This is Episode 1 of Corporate Empires — the investigative documentary series that tracks how corporations became more powerful than the nations that chartered them.What You'll Discover:➤ The Charter That Transferred Sovereign Power — How a single royal document gave private merchants the right to wage war, sign treaties, and govern millions➤ The VOC's Hidden Weapon — The Dutch East India Company invented the permanent share and created the Amsterdam Stock Exchange — the template for all modern corporate finance➤ The Army Behind the Balance Sheet — How the British East India Company maintained 150,000 soldiers — more than the British Army itself — as an enforcement mechanism for profit➤ The Bengal Playbook — How Robert Clive didn't win the Battle of Plassey through superior force. He bought it. Bribed Mir Jafar. And turned a battle into a corporate acquisition of 40 million people➤ State-Backed Narco Trafficking — How Britain's addiction to Chinese tea created a silver crisis — and how the East India Company solved it by flooding China with Bengali opium, triggering the First Opium War➤ The Corruption Engine — Why corruption wasn't a flaw in the British Empire's corporate system. It was the system. Underpaid employees, private trade, and rotten boroughs in Parliament were features, not bugs➤ The Enduring Playbook — From United Fruit to IMF structural adjustment programs, the East India Company's methods didn't die in 1874. They evolved.The East India Company didn't colonize India. That word is too small. They executed the world's first hostile corporate takeover of a sovereign nation — and they wrote the playbook that corporations still use today.The history of the British Empire is inseparable from the history of corporate greed at a civilizational scale. This is that story.Same forces. Different century.
