Any person in any part of the world can take up this simple process of chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa and using resources to help expand the Saṅkīrtana movement; and Prabhupāda showed how successful that can be. Caitanya Mahāprabhu also taught that it's important to avoid offenses while chanting, and one of the ways to avoid offenses is to take shelter of Lord Nityānanda and Lord Caitanya, because Lord Nityānanda is adoṣa-darśī—He doesn't see anybody's faults. Do you know anybody like that? It's pretty rare. But there's a description by Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura in the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam about different classes of people in this world who find faults. He says that some people are professional fault-finders.They're so expert at finding faults in others that even when there are no faults in somebody, they're able to find one and bring it up. That's a professional fault-finder. If you ask somebody what they do for a profession, they could say, 'I'm a professional fault-finder.' I said something about, 'Don't find faults in others,' and somebody wrote something back saying, 'This is a faulty conclusion; you should try to find fault with people.' Then he talks about someone who is adoṣa-darśī—that even when there is an obvious fault, the person doesn't see any fault. Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura gave an example: He said if somebody is very charitable, then the person who is a fault-finder might say, "Oh yes, he's charitable, but he's going to become very puffed up because he's giving charity. Actually, probably then people will start giving him money too and making him famous, and then he'll accept it all, and then he'll fall down—so it doesn't amount to much." Then he gave an example of somebody who doesn't find faults. He mentioned a householder. One night a burglar came in, and when the residents of the house woke up, the burglar had a weapon and said, "Give me all your riches." So they started handing over the riches. When he left, the householder said, "Oh, he's very pious! First of all, he really needed the money, because otherwise, why would he even come in here? And second of all, he had a weapon and he didn't harm any of us. Such a pious, nice person." Anyway, he gave these examples, but Lord Nityānanda is exactly like that. The śāstra says He is adoṣa-darśī; He doesn't find any fault. Sometimes we're the worst fault-finders of ourselves because, although we're trying to make advancement on the path of devotional service, we may compare ourselves to others and imagine that everyone else is doing okay except for me—and then we may discourage ourselves from advancing in devotional service. We definitely need Lord Nityānanda's help.

A higher spiritual taste doesn't negotiate with desire—it demotes it. From Govardhan Ecovillage in Maharashtra, Raghunath and Kaustubha riff on William James (father of modern psychology), the bhakti renaissance in India, and the strange way spiritual culture can make renunciation feel effortless: not by suppression, but by a new attraction taking the center of the heart. Along the way: kirtan "clubbing," deep-rooted devotion that suddenly shoots up like bamboo, and a reminder from the Bhāgavatam that when Krishna's touches the soul, even heaven, power, siddhis, and liberation start to look like broken glass next to the real thing. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

Six years ago we hit "record" with shaky internet and big dreams—then a lucky break, and a global lockdown helped turn Wisdom of the Sages into a daily lifeline for thousands of listeners. In this special 6-Year Anniversary episode—recorded live from Govardhan Ecovillage, India—listeners step up to share how daily Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, bhakti-yoga, kirtan, and satsang pulled them out of anxiety, addiction, trauma, and spiritual confusion—and into something steady, practical, and strangely joyful. From Berlin to Manhattan to Asheville, you'll hear how the "sages in the pages" become real when the teachings move from information to transformation.
It's mentioned in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta by Kavirāj Goswāmī that the mode in which Chaitanya Mahāprabhu conducted himself at Kūramkṣetra was the same as he did everywhere. In a village near here, he met a very well-to-do person named Kūrma. He was a Brāhmana and a gṛhasta. He was also the leader of his community. When he saw Srī Chaitanya Mahāprabhu, as you might expect, Mahāprabhu was so attractive, Kūrma said to Lord Chaitanya that, "I will just go with you. Please, let me travel with you." Chaitanya Mahāprabhu didn't stay long in one place—sometimes just one day. Chaitanya Mahāprabhu replied to Kūrma, "Never speak like this again." This is the instruction that Chaitanya Mahāprabhu gave to Kūrma that Kavirāj Goswāmī says was consistent everywhere he went. He gave several instructions to Kūrma. One is, he said, "You should stay here and chant Hare Kṛṣṇa." This was the primary reason that Chaitanya Mahāprabhu traveled everywhere: to teach everyone the process of chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahāmantra together. He said, "Stay in your home and stay in your village, and organize people so they can chant Hare Kṛṣṇa." The second instruction he gave him was, "You should teach this to other people." He said, "If you do these two things, there's no reason to leave home." Prabhupāda, in his purport to this instruction, explained that if somebody is engaged in chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, hearing from Srīmad Bhāgavatam, and teaching others, that person will be protected from Māyā, and one is enveloped by the spiritual energy—so much so that Chaitanya Mahā[prabhu didn't recommend that Kūrma leave home. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #globalyouthretreat #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
One of the great joys of book distribution is distributing a book, and then a moment later, watching somebody pensively reading it. Have you ever seen that? Has anybody ever seen that? How many have really seen it? Raise your hand. It's nice right?. In the airport where we distributed books, sometimes person would buy a book, and then they'd sit down on the bench because they're waiting for a plane, and they would open the book, start reading it. I would sneak behind them and look to see what they're reading, because I was thinking, what are they getting out of this? Where are they reading from that book? So this is the impetus. HH Gopāl Kṛṣṇa Mahārāja in the very beginning of his promoting book distribution, thought to open a display at a bookstore, and he made a great arrangement for it. It was a campaign for a month that was advertised, money was spent, and afterwards he went to Prabhupāda and reported that it wasn't very successful. Prabhupāda said that is because books are distributed by the enthusiasm of my disciples, enthusiasm, joy—mudā, that sense of 'I'm so happy, I want to give this to other people.' In fact, there's no technique for book distribution, so don't even ask me, because the only technique is to be happy. If you feel happy, then people are going to want what you have. If they look at you and they say, you know, this person looks happy, then they'll say, "Well, what do you have? What can you give me?" In fact, I had a stint in Chicago O'Hare Airport. It was the second most busy airport on the planet during the years that I was able to distribute books inside that airport. Number one was Hatfield in Atlanta. I don't know what was happening in Delhi, but not as much as now, and definitely not Dum Dum. But in any case, I remember being so happy. Having maṅgala-ārati in the temple, the kīrtans were such that everyone was dancing. And then we would have japa, Bhāgavatam class. Then we would all sit together and take prasāda. Then we would pile into a van and they let us out. It was like we were shot from a cannon, and the only technique I remember is just being so happy that I would actually get a running start, and then I would stop, skid into people, and say, "You look great." Then I would hand them a book, is say, "These are books about pure love for God, and it's meant to wake up pure love for God within your heart. And today, we just ask for a donation to help spread love for God." That was it. That's all he told people. It was just happiness, expressing happiness, distributing happiness, and being fully aware that if somebody was able to give something, a little attention to the book, take it home, give a donation which will make them have more attention to the book, then it was a big success. That's the life of the person who has the greatest opportunity to follow in Śrīla Prabhupāda's footsteps, to go out into the great unknown, just like catching in the Jaladūta. Just put yourself in that mindset that you are catching the Jaladūta. What would it feel like, the exhilaration to get on the boat, to fulfill the order of your spiritual master. Books in hand. Not a care in the world about not having facility, knowing that Kṛṣṇa will support you. Are you feeling it?

In case you didn't already know, 2025 marks 10 years since we started the B&H Photography Podcast, making today's show our tenth annual Photo Gear of the Year episode! A lot of cameras have come down the pike since that first recap, along with a veritable roller coaster of marketing strategies and photographic trends. To follow up on a trend discussed last year, we start out with a nod to point-and-shoots, a craze that, according to Kevin, has "become fever pitch." To expand on this theme, we look back in time to when digital point-and-shoots were losing ground to the ubiquitous camera phone, leading to Mike's theory that the current digicam trend is "real nostalgia for mid-aughts frivolity." We also point to a multi-tiered strategy among manufacturers, allowing them to cater to different user bases—from vloggers to professionals to hybrid shooters to the all-important enthusiast market. This lighthearted banter leads into our main course, focused on new releases from Canon, FUJIFILM, Godox, Hasselblad, Leica, Nikon, OM SYSTEM, Panasonic, Peak Design, Ricoh Pentax, Sigma, and Sony. Finally, in addition to predictions for 2026, we wrap things up with Kevin's picks for travel-friendly photo accessories to catch his eye this year. Stay to the end to learn about Peak Design's latest travel bags and tripods, plus the innovative modular design behind a new flash system from Godox.

Trump announces Hamas must lay down its weapons. Trump ag fógairt ar Hamas a gcuid arm a chur de láimh. US President Donald Trump has warned Hamas in Gaza to immediately hand over their weapons – or they will pay dearly, he said. Tá fógra tugtha ag Uachtarán na Stát Aontaithe Donald Trump do Hamas in Gaza a gcuid arm a chur de láimh gan mhoill – é sin nó íocfaidh siad go daor as, arsa sé. Trump claimed that the Israelis had fulfilled their promises so far regarding the ceasefire in Gaza and said that it was now up to Hamas to do the same. Mhaígh Trump go raibh a gcuid gealltanas comhlíonta ag na hIosraelaigh go dtí seo maidir leis an sos comhraic in Gaza agus dúirt gur ar Hamas a bhí sé anois déanamh amhlaidh. Trump was speaking at a press conference in Florida after a meeting he had with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu there yesterday. Ag labhairt ag preasócáid in Florida a bhí Trump tar éis cruinniú a bhí aige le Príomh-Aire Iosrael Benjamin Netanyahu ansin inné. Hamas had said earlier yesterday that they had no intention of handing over their weapons. Bhí sé ráite ag Hamas níos túisce inné nach raibh lá rúin acu a gcuid arm a chur de láimh. Trump is said to be excited about implementing the next part of his own plan for what’s to come for Gaza, which is to install a “technocratic” Palestinian government there with the support of an international military force. Deirtear go bhfuil Trump ar bís leis an gcéad chuid eile dá phlean féin maidir lena bhfuil i ndán do Gaza a chur i bhfeidhm, is é sin rialtas “teicnealathach” Palaistíneach a chur i gcumhacht ann le tacaíocht ó fhórsa míleata idirnáisiúnta. At the same press conference, with Netanyahu at his side, Trump said he would thwart any new attempt by Iran to develop nuclear power or produce ballistic missiles. Ag an bpreasócáid chéanna, agus Netanyahu lena thaobh, dúirt Trump go gcuirfeadh sé ó mhaith aon iarracht as an nua a dhéanfadh an Iaráin cumhacht núicléach a fhorbairt nó diúracáin bhalaistíocha a tháirgeadh. Nuclear facilities in Iran were severely damaged by bombing attacks carried out by the Americans and Israelis at the beginning of the summer. Rinneadh damáiste mór d’ionaid núicléacha san Iaráin de bharr ionsaithe buamála a rinne na Meiriceánaigh agus na hIosraelaigh orthu i dtús an tsamhraidh.

Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam says every time the sun rises and sets, it takes away our āyu. We get a prescribed number of days along with our birth—thrown in for free—but it is expiring day by day when the sun comes up and goes down. Poetically it says ( SB 2.3.17): āyur harati vai puṁsām udyann astaṁ ca yann asau The sun is speaking to us as it goes overhead, saying, " I am taking away our life. Another day is gone. You never get it back. Except for one who is engaged in discussing Kṛṣṇa and Kṛṣṇa consciousness." It is a nice practice to greet the sun whenever you can and just meditate on its infinite power as one of Kṛṣṇa's representatives here in the universe where you can become aware of them. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
A Nerveless não nasceu na garagem.Nasceu no feed, na mistura e na coragem de testar.Nesse episódio do Balcão 360, a gente senta com Fred Buzetti (bateria), Kim Saisse (vocal), Cezar Tortorelli (guitarra) e Guilherme “Beto” Bettini (baixo) pra uma resenha do jeito que a gente gosta: sem pose, com ideia, com ruído e com música.É papo sobre como uma “banda EAD” saiu do TikTok, transformou versões improváveis em virais e começou a construir um som autoral de metal moderno. Rola estratégia, roleta criativa, técnica x feeling, guitarra, IA, idioma, mercado e aquela pergunta que nunca morre: o metal acabou ou só mudou de forma?Gravado antes do primeiro show da banda em BH, o episódio ainda flerta com a tensão do “antes e depois”, quando a Nerveless pisa no palco do Nova Aurora Festival e sente o peso do mundo real — dividindo a noite com Pense e Odeon.Se você acha que o metal morreu, senta aí.Esse papo pode mudar sua ideia.

A French poet once observed that we often meet our destiny on the very road we take to avoid it—and history seems to agree. Using Napoleon's failed attempt to conquer Russia as a striking example, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore the deeper logic of karma: why running from discomfort rarely works, how unprocessed lessons repeat themselves, and what the Bhāgavatam offers as a radically different strategy. Instead of fleeing fate, this episode invites us to welcome what comes, stop wasting energy on avoidance, and experience how spiritual growth begins not with escape—but with acceptance and service. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

Let's say you've set a 108-year goal, and you only live to 107—and I wish that you may live in great health until you're 108—but let's just say you make it to 107. Then, in your next life, Kṛṣṇa will remind you. asau guṇamayair bhāvair bhūta-sūkṣmendriyātmabhiḥ sva-nirmiteṣu nirviṣṭo bhuṅkte bhūteṣu tad-guṇān (Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 1.2.33) In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Sūta Gosvāmī says (First Canto, Second Chapter) that even after the whole universe is destroyed and everybody is remanifest from Mahāviṣṇu into the material world again, at that time, the Lord reminds each soul where they were in the last life so they can take up where they left off. It's kind of like a little pause button; all of a sudden, it just turns back on again. So, yeah, you could take it up. Whatever desire you have, you can manifest in your life by taking time systematically. Your Krishna-conscious goals—or any goals for that matter—Kṛṣṇa will remind you of. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

Bhakti-yoga doesn't ask us to escape the world—it shows us how to set it right by placing love at the center. This episode begins with a "zoomed-out" perspective on human conflict and confusion, then pivots to a vision of reality grounded in three distinct expressions of divine love. Through a sequence of luminous verses, the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam reveals a theology in which the soul of the universe is present and personal, reciprocating heart-melting love through the songs of His friends, the shy glances of the girls of Vṛndāvana, and the protective, affectionate care of His mothers. As Raghunath and Kaustubha explore these verses, a deeper pattern emerges: when life lacks a spiritual center, even small grievances grow large and divisions harden.

Bhakti-yoga doesn't ask us to escape the world—it shows us how to set it right by placing love at the center. This episode begins with a "zoomed-out" perspective on human conflict and confusion, then pivots to a vision of reality grounded in three distinct expressions of divine love. Through a sequence of luminous verses, the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam reveals a theology in which the soul of the universe is present and personal, reciprocating heart-melting love through the songs of His friends, the shy glances of the girls of Vṛndāvana, and the protective, affectionate care of His mothers. As Raghunath and Kaustubha explore these verses, a deeper pattern emerges: when life lacks a spiritual center, even small grievances grow large and divisions harden. When consciousness is centered on bhakti, the heart softens, perspective widens, and love becomes the organizing principle of life. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

Bhí cruinnithe ar siúl i Miami, Florida ag an deireadh seachtaine idir ionadaithe ó na Stáit Aontaithe agus an Rúis agus iad i mbun cainteanna le theacht ar chomhaontú deireadh a chur leis an chogadh san Úcráin.
Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an fichiú lá de mhí na Nollag. Is mise Eoin Ó Seachnasaigh.Maraíodh cúig dhuine dhéag, paiste deich mbliana d'aois san áireamh, in ionsaí sceimhlitheoireachta ar Thrá Bondi in Sydney na hAstráile Dé Domhnaigh seo caite. Is iad an bheirt atá ainmnithe leis an sléacht Sajid Akram, a bhí 50 bliain d'aois, agus a mhac Naveed Akram, 24 bliain d'aois. Maraíodh an Akram ba shine ar an láthair agus gortaíodh an mac go dona sular tugadh chun ospidéil é. Scaoil an bheirt acu urchair ar shlua a bhí bailithe ar an trá chun ceiliúradh a dhéanamh ar fhéile mhór na nGiúdach, Hanukkah. D'éirigh le fear darb ainm Ahmed al-Ahmed an t-arm a bhaint ó dhuine de na gunnadóirí, agus dúirt príomh-aire New South Wales gur mhair go leor daoine mar thoradh ar an gcrógacht a léirigh sé.I ráiteas a d'eisigh Pobal Giúdach na hÉireann, chuir siad a gcomhbhrón in iúl dá ngaolta agus dá gcairde thar lear san Astráil atá ag fulaingt mar gheall ar na hionsaithe. Dúirt Coimisinéir na nGardaí, Justin Kelly, go dtabharfaí tacaíocht agus cosaint bhreise don phobal Giúdach in Éirinn. Bhí agóid i Londain oíche Dé Céadaoin, lasmuigh d'Aireacht Dlí agus Cirt na Breataine, i gcoinne an diúltaithe cead a thabhairt do stailceoirí ocrais dul go hospidéal. Bhí an teannas idir na póilíní agus na hagóideoirí le brath agus breis is míle duine bailithe chun tacaíocht a léiriú do Qesser Zuhrah, 20 bliain d'aois, agus Amy Gardiner-Gibson, 30 bliain d'aois, atá ar stailc ocrais anois le breis is daichead a sé lá agus ag fulaingt go dona. Gabhadh beirt ar an láthair agus baineadh frith-agóideoir amháin amach as an slua. I mí Iúil, d'fhógair Rialtas na Breataine go raibh cosc i bhfeidhm ar an ngrúpa Palestine Action. Ó shin i leith, tá beagnach 2,500 duine gafa ag na póilíní agus tá seisear priosúnach ar stailc ocrais anois mar agóid i gcoinne mí-úsáid chumhachta an stáit. Faoi dheireadh, tar éis iarrachtaí fada ó bhaill den phobal agus ó pholaiteoirí ar nós Zarah Sultana agus Jeremy Corbyn, a chuir brú ar na húdaráis, thug otharcarr Zuhrah go dtí an t-ospidéal chun cúram éigeandála a fháil. Tá an tAire Dlí agus Cirt, David Lammy, fós ag diúltiú labhairt le teaghlaigh na stailceoirí.Tá sceideal cuimsitheach fógartha ag TG4 don Nollaig agus réimse leathan de scannáin, de chláir faisnéise agus de chláir cheoil acu, chomh maith le rogha mhór mhillteach d'ábhar do pháistí, buíochas le Cúla4. Beidh lucht leanúna an cheoil thraidisiúnta ag tnúth go mór le Geantraí na Nollag 2025, a chraolfar ag 7pm Lá Nollag, agus le roinnt clár dírithe ar Oireachtas na Samhna, a chraolfar le linn an deireadh seachtaine i ndiaidh na Nollag. I measc na mbuaicphointí eile, ó thaobh cláir faisnéise de, beidh George Best i gCorcaigh le feiceáil Lá Fhéile Stiofáin ag 8.15pm, ag insint scéal na tréimhse gairide a chaith an peileadóir cáiliúil thíos i gCúige Mumhan caoga bliain ó shin. Idir an dá linn, bainfidh daoine beaga sult as an scannán beochana Nollaí, scéal lách faoi fhia óg, atá ar fáil ar an seinnteoir anois. Is féidir an sceideal iomlán a fháil ag tg4.ie.Agus sin nuacht na Nollag. Feicfimid go luath sibh, ach go dtí sin, Nollaig mhór mhaith daoibh uilig ó chuile dhuine anseo ar Nuacht Mhall.*
In the Bhāgavatam, it said that the universe is working in a uniform way, which means that everything works perfectly because it's all under the guidance of Kṛṣṇa and His energies. So if something happens to you because of somebody else, we can see it as the universe working in a uniform way, and I'll give you an example. Peter Burwash was a friend of mine. He was a businessman. Passed away a few years ago. Used to be a professional athlete, and then he started a company called Peter Burwash International. He knew Prabhupāda well because he lived in Hawaii and Prabhupāda used to live there and write. And it was Peter Burwash's headquarters. He took a lot of advice from Prabhupāda, and when he was just getting his business started and he got interested in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he gave a donation to the temple, and he handed it to the local temple commander to start his life membership. About an hour later, the person who accepted the money absconded, which means they ran away with the money. Peter Burwash was very angry and he went to Prabhupāda to complain directly to him because Prabhupāda lived just right upstairs. And when Prabhupāda heard his case, the first thing he said was: “Don't become angry with the instrument of your karma.” Peter Burwash lectured all over the world, and that was what he always started with when he gave talks—that he learned this from his spiritual teacher. He would say: “Don't become angry with the instrument of your karma.” So there are philosophical ways of dealing with it. They're very practical tools that you can use to get through all these sticky situations to make sure that you don't make it worse than it was before. But you don't have to just accept it and move on or just hold it in. There are ways to deal with it.

Bhí cruinniú iontach tairbheach ag toscaireacht Chomhairle Contae Dhún na nGall, a chas le Bonneagar Iompair Éireann i mBaile Átha Cliath tráthnóna inné, a dúirt an Comhairleoir Contae John Shéamuis Ó Fearraigh le hAodh Máirtín Ó Fearraigh.
When devotion becomes a transaction, spiritual life starts to thin out. In this episode of Wisdom of the Sages, Raghunath and special co-host Pranapriya Devi Dasi explore how bhakti deepens not through bigger offerings or louder effort, but through listening, responsibility, and presence. Drawing from the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, stories of karma and mercy, and everyday struggles with anxiety, chanting, and family life, the conversation points to a quieter truth: spiritual growth begins when we stop managing outcomes and start showing up with sincerity. A grounded, humorous, and sobering reminder that bhakti isn't about getting more—it's about giving attention. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

Ag amharc siar ar an bhliain a bhí, is fíor go raibh an Ghaeilge thuas seal thíos seal. Bhí sí faoin spotsolas go minic le linn na bliana agus bhí neart ceannlíntí a thug ardú croí do Ghaeilgeoirí. Le Ros na Rún ag ceiliúradh 30 bliana ar an fhód, méadú as cuimse ar úsáid na Gaeilge ar Tik Tok agus méadú suntasach ar líon na mac léinn Gaeilge in Ollscoil na Banríona, bhí go leor le bheith bródúil as i 2025. Ach i measc na scéalta a thug ardú meanma do na Gaeil, bhí scéalta ann a laghdaigh misneach fosta, go háirithe sa chóras oideachais agus díolúintí ó stáidéar ar an nGaeilge ag an leibhéal is airde riamh. Mar sin de, agus deireadh na bliana ag teannadh linn, cén rath a bhí ar ár dteanga dhúchasach i 2025? Ar Seachtain labhair Tessa Fleming le Storm Eaton-Kilgallen faoi na ‘top-picks' atá aici féin don bhliain seo.

Uma vez, anos atrás, eu fui numa peça de teatro sem conhecer o grupo e sem saber muito do tema. Foi uma decisão completamente no escuro, guiada por um aspecto objetivo: eu queria assistir alguma coisa e essa sessão tinha ingresso.Horas depois, eu entrei no carro para voltar para casa com uma sensação estranha no corpo e uma pergunta: o que acabou de acontecer? Hoje, eu tenho essa resposta: eu tinha acabado de presenciar as fases do desconforto que antecedem as boas mudança. E é sobre elas que eu falo nesse episódio. Cê vem?

Bhakti moves like a river between union and separation, carrying the devotee through remembrance, longing, and love. In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore spiritual experience as it naturally unfolds in devotional life—through divine arrangements, moments of ecstasy, and the quiet ways sacred places awaken the heart. As the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam describes Vṛndāvana, Kṛṣṇa's footprints are said to make the land auspicious, showing how even a trace can hold both presence and absence at once. Here, Vedānta appears in its most beautiful and poetic expression, where bees, breezes, forests, and dust don't explain truth so much as embody it—and Vṛndāvana becomes something the devotee learns to carry wherever they go. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

Netflix has a price, but what's the cost of what it does to you? Raghunath and Kaustubha riff on Oscar Wilde's brutal truth—people know the price of everything and the value of nothing—and trace how modern consumption can quietly make the mind coarse, restless, and spiritually numb. They then turn to the 10th Canto of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, reading radiant verses of Kṛṣṇa's Vṛndāvan pastimes—scripture meant to purify the heart and elevate consciousness from crude appetite to the highest spiritual taste. Drawing from Bhagavad-gītā 2.57 and Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura's explanation of Dhenukāsura as the ass-like mentality of gross sensuality—overcome by Balarāma as guru-tattva—they show why the greatest wealth in life is finding guidance that reveals the true value of spiritual life, and seeking it with real intensity. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

A new season starts off with the same stale storylines...vague details about Kyle's relationship confusion, Dorit's frustrations with PK, Erika's continued indifference to Tom's fate, his wake of devastation, and her ongoing legal troubles, and Boz's unexplained eagerness to be Dorit's bestie. The season will include two new housewives, with Rachel Zoe resurrecting her successful BravoTV career and starting strong by catching us up on her life, family, businesses, and the reasoning behind her recent separation. Fellow RH newbie, Amanda Frances, will make her debit in episode two. Throughout, remnants of the Fox Force Five clique seem to find pleasure in Sutton's misfortunes, bringing up the loss of Garcelle and Avi several times before Erika also body shames her. It wasn't a season premier that left a feeling of excitement or anticipation, quite the opposite, but in that way it was certainly memorable. BONUS: Why recent backstage Bravocon info from former BH housewife, Crystal Kung Minkoff, is as bad for Bravo as it is my rage.All opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.

In this Age of Kali, hari-kīrtana is very, very important. The importance of chanting the holy name of the Lord is stated in the following verses from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (12.3.51-52): kaler doṣa-nidhe rājann asti hy eko mahān guṇaḥ kīrtanād eva kṛṣṇasya mukta-saṅgaḥ paraṁ vrajet kṛte yad dhyāyato viṣṇuṁ tretāyāṁ yajato makhaiḥ dvāpare paricaryāyāṁ kalau tad dhari-kīrtanāt “The most important factor in this Age of Kali, which is an ocean of faults, is that one can be free from all contamination and become eligible to enter the kingdom of God simply by chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra. The self-realization that was achieved in the Satya millennium by meditation, in the Tretā millennium by the performance of different sacrifices, and in the Dvāpara millennium by worship of Lord Kṛṣṇa can be achieved in the Age of Kali simply by chanting the holy names, Hare Kṛṣṇa.” (Cc Madhya 6.242) ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #mantramusic #spiritualmusic #kirtan #mantra #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

Toda vez que eu me vejo tentando ocupar cada segundo de silêncio do meu dia, eu me sinto como se estivesse dentro de uma casa onde chegam cada vez mais móveis. No começo, fica tudo muito bonito, mas depois eles começam a se sobrepor. Um em cima do outro. E isso acaba tapando as janelas, deixando a casa mais quente, mais apertada e menos confortável também.Então no auge do desconforto, eu lembro que eu posso sair dessa casa. E eu faço isso, largando o celular na sala, desligando a tv, a música, o livro, tudo. Fico no mais completo silêncio, só ouvindo o barulho da água tocando o prato, enquanto lavo a louça. Só o barulho do chuveiro ligado. Só os garfos do meu vizinho sendo colocados na mesa. E aí é como se alguém fosse tirando os móveis empilhados dessa casa, fosse liberando as janelas, deixando o ar correr mais livremente. E é nesse lugar livre que a intuição me encontra. É por aí que vai o episódio dessa semana. Cê vem?

Is a monk living in a temple necessarily deeper than someone living an ordinary life in the world—or could it be the other way around? In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore that question through Brother Lawrence's realization that you don't have to leave ordinary life to find God—you only have to bring God into ordinary life. That insight opens directly into the stunning conclusion of Krishna's childhood pastimes in the Tenth Canto of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, where after humbling Brahmā with cosmic revelation, Krishna returns to the simplest childhood games, revealing that the deepest exchange of love doesn't require grandeur at all. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

"How could this happen to me? I'm so powerful. I have everything." This is one of the inevitable, startling moments in the life of every soul in this world who identifies with the body and thinks, "I've got it made. I went to the best school," or not, whatever it may be. "Everything's lined up." And then the crocodile comes. And then there's this reckoning point in Gajendra's struggle with the crocodile, which I've mentioned many times: that he realizes, "I can't win and I'm helpless." Then he prays. There is a way in which the Bhāgavatam shows us: if you feel delight when you walk in the underbrush crackles under your feet, if you feel leisurely happy, the happy of the leisure you have gotten by your material advancement, watch out! Because Padam Padaṁ yad vipadam na teṣām... When we hear that story, where else are you going to hear it? Well, of course, you hear it every day—people coming into mishaps. But there's a sense of, "Well, at least it wasn't me." And, of course, people have empathy. They feel sorry, try to help out in some way. But ultimately, the Bhāgavatam frames this in such a way that it instills in our heart a sense of, "Let's not get comfortable here in the material world and think that 'I've got it made' and everything's going to be okay." Better to preemptively take the mood of Gajendra after the crocodile gets on his leg. Better to preemptively, says the intelligent person who hears these stories, take the position of Citraketu after he surrendered and took the mantra and began to chant sincerely. This instills in us both a sense of detachment from the material world, sufferings of which are categorically applied, even to the richest people, the most advantaged people with the most advantageous situations, as well as poor people; everyone. It's an equal opportunity — suffering agent, this material world. And then one comes to this sense of, "Let me surrender to Kṛṣṇa," removing from our heart, by hearing story after story, this sense of rāga or intense attachment to the material world. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

Is a monk living in a temple necessarily deeper than someone living an ordinary life in the world—or could it be the other way around? In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore that question through Brother Lawrence's realization that you don't have to leave ordinary life to find God—you only have to bring God into ordinary life. That insight opens directly into the stunning conclusion of Krishna's childhood pastimes in the Tenth Canto of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, where after humbling Brahmā with cosmic revelation, Krishna returns to the simplest childhood games, revealing that the deepest exchange of love doesn't require grandeur at all. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

RHOBH is BACK! Vanessa and I talk the premiere of Real housewives of Beverly Hills. The cheesy intros we love. the opulence and friendships that only show up with cameras. and the fashion statements made while talking ca$h Sh!t about your co-workers...or friends. The BH girlies are back and back to their roots of wealth and delusion and with a new wife in tow---Rachel ZOE! Thoughts on her ushering in as a housewife now and not the titular talent of a Bravo show as she once was.Over in UTAH we wrap up the SLOMW season with more questions and big complaints about that sorry reunion. Could it be that only Bravo and Andy know how to reunite a cast and get some results? Or were there simply too many men present? Are we still excited for season 4? Vanessa always comes with the kiki and the tea so jump into The Mix with us!Vanessa- @realitea_recap (IG & Threads)Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@realitearecap2876Mani- @mixingwithmani (IG & Threads)TMWM Visuals and Ad-Free Eps- Patreon.com/mixingwithmani
Psychedelics can shoot you to the summit, but they can't make you a mountain climber. You may get a glimpse of the view, but the glimpse doesn't change you — you didn't build the muscles, you didn't shed the weight, and you didn't face the inner terrain that actually transforms a person. In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore the difference between quick-hit "insight" culture and the steady, muscle-building path of Bhakti, drawing powerful lessons from Lord Brahmā's humility in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. It's an honest, humorous dive into why real growth means doing the inner work — not looking for shortcuts. From psychedelic detours to Facebook flame wars, from ego trips to genuine surrender, this episode blends ancient wisdom with modern mischief in the signature WOTS style. Key Highlights * Raghunath's mushroom story is back. * Brahmā: four heads, cosmic mastery, still doing the uncomfortable inner work… one apology at a time. * Why psychedelics may give you the view — but Bhakti builds the muscles to actually live there.
Simone Weil's razor-sharp insight cracks open this episode: we glamorize imaginary evil and underestimate how powerful real goodness actually is. Raghunath and Kaustubha reflect on goth culture, mob movies, Nagababas, and kirtan festivals as they contrast the "cool darkness" our minds romanticize with the deep, surprising joy of a life given to Krishna. Along the way, Lord Brahmā's prayers in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.14 expose how our homes, families, and attachments can either imprison us—or become our path to liberation. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?

The limits of material analysis end long before the limits of the Absolute. In this landmark episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore Lord Brahma's profound realization in the Tenth Canto of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam—where even the universe's greatest intellect confronts the impossibility of measuring Krishna's limitless nature. Weaving insights from contemporary voices like Alex O'Connor, Dawkins, Hawking, Planck, and Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, they reflect on why science can dissect the universe yet still miss the Person behind it, how pride blinds us to the divine, and how humility, devotion, and sincere acceptance of life's challenges reveal the immeasurable beauty of Bhakti. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?
