Beatrice continues to lead Dante toward contrition, pointing out both the purposes of her body (or corpse) and the ways he has failed to followed her lofty beauty.She finishes her second salvo at the pilgrim with a rhetorical flourish, showing the reader (and Dante) that she is a master of rhetoric, someone who commands a high, elevated style of poetry--that is, a fusion of the literal and the metaphoric that will become increasingly necessary to describe the PARADISO experience.Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we look at the conclusion of Beatrice's second run at the pilgrim Dante and find the ways that she is directing both him and his poetry.To support the work of this podcast with a small monthly stipend or a one-time gift, please visit this PayPal link right here.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:09] My English translation of PURGATORIO, Canto XXXI, Lines 49 - 63.

In the 11th Canto of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (11.5.36), Karabhājana Muni gives us the essence of advice about yajña. He says: kalim sabhājayanty āryā guṇa-jñā sāra-bhāginaḥ yatra saṅkīrtanenaiva sarva-svārtho 'bhilapyate He says, in the Kali-yuga age, people who are intelligent understand the purpose of life. Kalim—in Kali (check your watch and see if it's Kali-yuga; they have that on the new Apple Watch, you can push a button and see what yuga it is!). Kalim sabhājayanti āryāḥ—the āryas, those who are high thinkers, they understand a principle that you can apply today. They are sāra-bhāginaḥ. They know what the nectar, or the essence of life, is; they know how to extract the value of this life. Don't be tricked by false promises in the material world. We cannot be successful by material adjustment; it only creates more anxiety. But we can be successful through spiritual knowledge and technology. So, in Kali-yuga—check and see—kalim sabhājayanti sāra-bhāginaḥ yatra saṅkīrtanena sarva-svārtho 'bhilapyate. Sarva means "all" and artha means "all your necessities, all your desires." Abhilapyate—they can all be perfectly fulfilled. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu showed by example how to have a successful life. And He was here recently in geological time; He was here only "five seconds" ago. "Here" means right here in Madurai. He came here twice, and He showed how to be a successful human being, a sukhi nara. Everyone say: sukhi nara. It sounds Japanese, but actually it is sanskrit! Sukhi nara means "happy human." Who wants to be a sukhi nara? Okay, only half said yes! Then Karabhājana Muni reveals Lord Caitanya's purpose in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam even before Lord Caitanya appeared, and that is to use this life for sacrifice (yajña). Someone may say, "Well, how should I perform the sacrifice? Should I get lots of ghee and grains and build a yajña-śālā that will light up the sky and pour all the ghee and grains into the fire? Shall I go to the Himalayas and find a cave in which I can meditate? Shall I build a gigantic temple made of stone with 400 spires on top?" Karabhājana Muni says, "Perform this sacrifice." Check and see: is it still Kali-yuga? If it is Kali-yuga, then he says: perform saṅkīrtana. It means to congregationally chant the names of God. Caitanya Mahāprabhu learned this from His spiritual master: harer nāma harer nāma harer nāmaiva kevalam kalau nāsty eva nāsty eva nāsty eva gatir anyathā Just take shelter of the process of saṅkīrtana, and give everyone else an opportunity to take this process. Chant Hare Kṛṣṇa and teach it to everybody. By way of spreading the saṅkīrtana, we should also distribute transcendental literature, because it is "written kīrtana" that will transform the world. When we are engaged in the yajña for the age fully, we can overcome the inconveniences and the troubles of the Kali-yuga age. We can also attain the goal of life .------------------------------------------------------------ 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 #

On the Mystery of Mystery: A Ra-Contact Conversation

Summary: "Mystery" — Tim's Ra Contact Night Opening Doug offered an invocation acknowledging the group as the One Infinite Creator experiencing itself, emphasizing that living life through intention becomes the gift returned to the Creator—"giving back the glory." Core Teaching: The Nature of Mystery Tim structured his presentation around Ra's statement that "all begins and ends in mystery" (28.1), weaving together personal testimonies, Ra quotations, and contemplative reflection. The Paradox of Third Density Tim opened with a central paradox: Third density is explicitly not the density of understanding, yet we are compelled to seek understanding. Ra states: "We are those who are of the Law of One. In our vibration the polarities are harmonized, the complexities are simplified, the paradoxes have a solution. We are one. That is our nature and our purpose." (Ra, 1.1) Yet for third-density beings, paradox remains unresolved—and this is by design. As Tim noted, "Seeking for understanding while we do not pass go, collect $200... somehow, we have to find mystery and flow with it while living life." Personal Encounters with Mystery Members shared formative experiences of touching mystery: Tim — At age 11, watching snow fall through a lamplight window in Utah. "What I felt was not conceptual... just pure experience. Almost just experiencing mystery or the stillness." Russell — A canoe trip in the Boundary Waters under starlight, feeling something supernatural was about to happen. "Was I about to be revealed in mystery, and I said no?" Troy — Age 5–7, experiencing the strangeness of being: "It's so strange to be me." He had to reassure himself: "You are you, and that's all there is to it." He identified this as touching "the infinite mystery of beingness." Doug — His UFO encounter in first grade. Ra speaks of the Confederation using sightings "to evoke mystery" and call the viewer "into a deeper mystery" (53.3). Beyond this, Doug noted a chronic existential mystery: "Who am I in this situation?" Nathan — A precognitive dream of a green-painted iron stake that manifested the same morning—an impossible puzzle piece that "rattled around my whole life until I found the Law of One." Clara — As a child running to her parents' room during storms, she would see a picture of an angel with two children on a bridge. Years later, her mother insisted no such picture ever existed. "Somewhere I knew I was protected." Ra's Teaching on Mystery and the Archetypical Mind (Sessions 96–97) Tim traced Don Elkins's attempts to "purify" the tarot by removing corrupted additions. Ra cooperated but then offered this correction: "It is not possible to offer what you may call a pure deck... The removal of all distortion is unlikely, and to a great extent, unimportant." (96.4) Tim identified this as one of the most liberating teachings in the material. Don's desire to "figure things out" mirrors our own seeking—yet Ra gently redirects: "May we ask the student to look up from inward working and behold the glory, the might, the majesty, mystery, and the peace of oneness." (97.9) The archetypical mind, Ra explains, "does not resolve any paradox or bring all into unity. This is not the property of any resource which is of the third density" (97.9). The tarot, the mind complex, conceptual frameworks—none can deliver final resolution. What they can do is develop "the faculty of faith and of the will." Mystery as Self-Recognition Troy's childhood experience became the interpretive key. Tim observed: "Ra makes it very clear that the mystery is our encounter with our true nature. It's us learning and turning to see ourselves and kind of surprising ourselves." The One Infinite Creator knows itself through infinite perspectives. What we touch externally as "mystery"—snowfall, starlight, a strange dream—is actually recognition of something within. We are the mystery. Ra states: "The rhythms are clothed in mystery, for they are being itself" (97.9). Doug's earlier writing captured this: "We ARE the mystery... the wholeness of the sacred universe whose form is structured by sacred geometry exists inside of you and me." Mystery and the Limits of Understanding Tim quoted a Talmudic saying: "Ain mazal l'Yisrael" — "For Israel, there is no fate." Despite all astrological and karmic factors, we possess agency. The stars do not control our destiny; we can "play with the mystery however we want to manifest it." Ra's teaching reinforces this. While the veil creates conditions of not-knowing, we retain the capacity for choice. The mystery is not obstacle but invitation. Integration: Love, Light, and the Mystery Doug offered a framework for understanding mystery's relationship to love and light: Mystery — Not something we cannot know, but something we can know infinitely without ever exhausting. Each new route to truth "enlightens and enlivens the core." Love — The energy to explore mystery. "The seeking, the luring... the hounds of heaven constantly barking to keep going further." Light — The consciousness, the gnosis, the "Eureka" of a moment where mystery unfolds. Then it "collapses back down into the next rung of the ladder, where we are now beckoned to explore the mystery in more complex ways." DeMarcus's Synthesis DeMarcus connected Hindu cosmology to Ra's teaching: "There's an ancient Vedic scripture that says not even the gods and goddesses are able to understand the nature of Brahman." He noted that even sixth-density entities experience mystery, and eighth-density remains incomprehensible to those in fifth. "Mystery seems to be the great attractor... almost the reason for experience. It all begins in mystery, it's what starts the creation, it all ends in mystery." Closing Reflection: Sri Aurobindo's Savitri Tim concluded with verses from Sri Aurobindo's epic poem (Book 9, Canto 1): Because thou hast chosen to share earth's struggle and fate, And leaned in pity over earthbound men, And turned aside to help and yearned to save, I bind by thy heart's passion thy heart to mine. Now will I do in thee my marvelous works. When all thy work in human time is done, In the heart of my creation's mystery, I will enact the drama of thy soul, Inscribe the long romance of thee and me. Troy responded: "One of the most beautiful bits of interaction with God and soul that I've ever heard." Closing Prayer (Troy) "Holy One, Beyond all knowing, You stir the depths where words cannot reach. In stillness, we bow before your mystery—not to solve, but to adore. Open our hearts to wonder, that in all we cannot grasp, we may find you waiting. Amen." Community Notes Doug proposed that next week's gathering include personal introductions—each member sharing who they are and what brings them to Building 4th. Tim emphasized that mystery unites us across time and culture, citing a 700-year-old Zen poem by Musō Soseki describing the same bone-chilling stillness he experienced as a child in Utah. The evening modeled the community's practice: weaving Ra Material, contemplative poetry, and lived experience into collective seeking.

The pilgrim has found the perfect perch to see the full scope and length of the parade of allegories at the top of the Mount Purgatory in the garden of Eden.After the griffin and its chariot come seven merry women and seven more somber men. They are complex allegories that have inspired much debate.More than that, they are also an atemporal moment, something outside of chronological time, the way revelation most often happens.Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we look more closely at the end of the (first half of the) apocalyptic parade our pilgrim witnesses from across the river Lethe.If you'd like to help with the many costs of this podcast, please consider a very small monthly stipend or a one-time gift, using this PayPal link right here.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:13] My English translation of PURGATORIO, Canto XXIX, Lines 121 - 154.

Naviga in totale sicurezza con ⁠⁠⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠ #adv In questo episodio speciale di Natale, The Bull cambia tono e formato per raccontare una storia. “Il Canto dei Mercati” è una fiaba finanziaria ispirata a Dickens, pensata per chi ha sempre rimandato l'idea di investire. Attraverso il viaggio di Massimo Sul Conto e l'incontro con i fantasmi dei mercati passati, presenti e futuri, l'episodio affronta in modo narrativo e accessibile i grandi temi della finanza personale: inflazione, rischio, investimento, immobiliare, ETF, tempo e rimpianto. È una storia che parla di paura, immobilismo e illusioni di sicurezza, ma anche di consapevolezza, pianificazione e libertà. Perché non investire non è una scelta neutrale: è una decisione che ha un costo, spesso invisibile per anni, ma enorme nel lungo periodo. Un episodio da ascoltare (o far ascoltare) a chi pensa che “la finanza non faccia per lui”, ma vuole capire davvero cosa significa costruire il proprio futuro. Prodotto e distribuito da Corax.

The lady across the stream continues her answer to the pilgrim Dante's question about the breeze and the water. In this case, she explains the ecology of Eden, offers an understanding of global botany, and finally layers the meaning thick over the rivers of Eden, one of which is the poet's utter invention.The landscape itself is becoming allegorical, moral, theological, even anagogical, all while remaining true to its pastoral form (and roots).Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we delve deeper into the lady's capacious answers and the poet's ever-widening imagination.If you'd like the help defray the many costs and fees associated with this website, please consider a one-time donation or a small monthly stipend through this PayPal link right here.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:31] My English translation of PURGATORIO, Canto XXVIII, lines 109 - 133.

The lady in Eden says she's come to answer the pilgrim's questions. And he's got one. It just might not be the first question on our minds.But it's one that reveals the hall of mirrors that the poet has created in COMEDY, in which the poem itself justifies its own fictional if scientific answers to questions that lead the fictional pilgrim (and the very real reader) to a position of faith, based on the imagined landscape.Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we work through the first of the lady's speech with our pilgrim (as well as Virgil and Statius) in the Garden of Eden at the top of Mount Purgatory.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:27] My English translation of PURGATORIO, Canto XXVIII, lines 85 - 108.

Our pilgrim, Dante, calls the solitary lady over to him.

Our pilgrim has been set free--crowned and mitered, in fact--and can wander at will through the dense, thick wood that tops Mount Purgatory.The opening lines of Canto XXVIII are fully from the pilgrim's point of view. They offer us a wealth of naturalistic detail that looks simple on first blush but that will get layered with sedimentary meaning over the next five and a half cantos.This place is unprecedented in all of COMEDY.
