Guests in Londinium, 92 AD: Gaius and Germanicus. The Ritual of Combat and Modern Delusions. Germanicusargues that for the Romans, war and ceremony were inextricably linked, using triumphs and gladiatorial spectacles to forge a shared identity between the people and the military. These rituals were "incarnations of the spirit of Rome" triumphing over "barbaric" enemies, providing a form of "ecstatic participatory" fulfillment. He notes a parallel in modern America, which uses "ecstatic vicarity" through high-tech war footage and video games to maintain a similar bond. However, he warns that the U.S. dangerously underestimates adversaries like Iran by viewing them as "barbarians" rather than a sophisticated, 2,500-year-old culture. He laments the loss of the "sobriety" that guided Cold War leadership—where the stakes of nuclear confrontation were understood—noting that current American policy reflects a "gods of war" complex born from the easy successes of the early 1990s. Gaius adds that this technological display creates a "fog of war" where the enemy's own capabilities and "vote" in the conflict are often ignored. (1)

What keeps a body of knowledge alive across thousands of years without losing its purity? In this first part of a two-part series, Thom traces the Guru Parampara, the lineage of the Shankaracharya tradition, from Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and Guru Deva back through Vyasa, Shankara, and the ancient masters who carried Vedic knowledge forward. Along the way, he explores why preserving the purity of the teaching matters just as much as sharing it. This series also serves as a fitting prelude to upcoming Guru Purnima celebrations for 2026.

In this episode of the Observatory Podcast, Scott and LaRae Wright sit down with Nathan Chase Plummer and Zaid Plummer to explore the story behind Guardian Mansion — a bold cross-country move, a historic restoration, and a shared vision rooted in partnership, creativity, and purpose.Together, they reflect on how a simple dream of restoring historic spaces evolved into a life-changing journey.

For the past year, a group of students has been sitting with these teachings and letting them ask hard questions. Come be part of the ceremony that honors their practice.
Prime Minister Hon. Philip J. Pierre encouraged Cadet Corps members to embrace discipline, resilience, leadership and strong moral character, urging them to serve as positive role models capable of creating meaningful change within their communities.

There are lots of ways to get our music ready for the holidays. Yes, I know it's only July and we have months to prepare, but that's actually the point. You could wait until the week before your first Christmas gig in December to practice your music, and I have to say that there were times in the past that was my strategy. As you might imagine, it isn't a course of action I'd recommend. Or you could try the standard Christmas in July method. You learn your holiday music in the summer and then try to hang onto it until the holidays eventually come around. Granted, it's a much better plan than waiting until December, but as a preparation strategy it leaves a lot to be desired. If you've learned your music by the time summer ends, what do you do with it for the next three months? Naturally, there are a lot of different approaches you could take, and some of those are going to feel more natural to you than others, just based on your personal practice preferences. There are external influences that might play a role as well. For instance, perhaps this is the year that you have ben asked to play Britten's Ceremony of Carols for the first time. The difficulty and scope of this piece will require a more focused approach than standard church or party holiday music. While I used to be fairly undisciplined in my approach to my own holiday repertoire preparation - and believe me, I paid the price for it more than once - I am unwilling to let my students suffer the same way. So I have a few "always" ground rules and a couple of "never" caveats that I try to share with them. These have their roots in my own learning the hard way. However, I also have a system that seems to work pretty well for most of my students. The odd thing is that I haven't really told any of them about it. We've used the system but I've never given it a name before. So here it is, making its official debut: my 5-4-4-3 plan for holiday music preparation. My students will recognize it, or at least most of it, and I hope this will organize more clearly what we have talked about already. If you haven't studied with me, I'm happy to share this with you for the first time ever.

This episode covers the next part of chapter 34 from: “As I remained silent in awe, my guide made a sweeping gesture…” to “...Put your hand there and receive whatever food you desire.” This episode continues Lahiri Mahasaya's experience with Babaji's materialised palace. We examine how Babaji manifested a jewelled palace from cosmic rays to fulfil Lahiri's past life desire for a golden palace, with detailed discussions about the philosophical implications of what constitutes matter and reality. We explored Paramahansa Yogananda's commentary on karma, particularly the four definitions of karma from Bhagavad Gita, and how Lahiri's experience fit into these categories. The conversation covered the palace's purpose as a testing ground for Lahiri's initiation into Kriya Yoga, the mystical nature of the initiation ceremony, and the eventual dematerialisation of the palace when Lahiri's desire was fulfilled. 00:00 Introduction; 0:40 Prior Episode; 1:15 Transitoriness; 16:20 Desire extinguished; 26:50 Kriya Initiation; 46:15 Dematerialised; 56:55 Looking Ahead.

Ah, 2002. What a year! Especially when it comes to the Salt Lake City Olympics. An Olympics so historic, particularly for Australia, that we often remember it through rose-coloured glasses. But what about the Opening Ceremony? How does it hold up after all these years? Well today, you're about to find out as we head back to the era of Bush, trains and plenty of bright ski jackets to revisit the first Winter Olympic Opening Ceremony of the new millennium! Does the fact it was held in a school stadium hold it back? What about having trains going down the aisles that two of our three hosts rightfully love? How about calling everyone Mitt? And now that the US men have finally won Olympic gold in ice hockey again for the first time since 1980, do we look at the Miracle on Ice team lighting the cauldron differently? And could that mean the 2026 gold medallists are a lock to do the same when the Games return to Salt Lake City? There's plenty to unpack and a lot of fun to be had as we bring you our latest Opening Ceremony review in style!

A Michelin-trained chef has criticised the Michelin Guide after Tuesday night's inaugural awards ceremony in a post on social media. Jack Crosti, who has worked for Michelin-starred kitchens across the UK and Europe, voiced his support for Michelin coming to New Zealand, but described the ceremony as a 'joke' and questioned the selection process. He says this was a 'once-in-a-lifetime' event for chefs and operators and it wasn't delivered properly. "It felt very disconnected...some restaurants were left out, some others were included, there's no consistency, really." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Observatory Podcast, Scott and LaRae Wright sit down with Bob Coleman, with Wendy Wilde joining the conversation, to explore what it means to retire on your own terms and rethink your relationship with money. Bob, a non-traditional financial and investment advisor and author of Retire on Your Terms, shares why many people feel stuck inside the traditional financial “industry matrix” and how curiosity, access, and education can open up new possibilities around retirement planning, investing, prosperity, and abundance.Together, they discuss inherited money stories, scarcity conditioning, financial safety, the difference between retail and wholesale thinking, Blue Ocean Strategy, the Prosperity Code, work becoming optional, and why money does not have to be separate from spirituality, healing, or personal growth. This conversation invites listeners to question the old voices in their heads, get curious about new options, and imagine a more aligned relationship with money, retirement, and freedom.Timestamps:[00:00:18] Introducing Bob Coleman, Wendy Wilde, and Retire on Your Terms[00:04:02] Non-traditional financial advising and the “Industry Matrix”[00:05:23] Relationship with money, abundance, and asking better questions[00:13:03] The traditional advisor box and how financial products are packaged[00:16:22] Breaking old money rules and creating open architecture[00:20:49] Questioning money conditioning, programming, and safety[00:24:47] “Whose voice is in your head?” and inherited money stories[00:26:16] The Prosperity Code and access to new possibilities[00:28:49] Curiosity as the doorway to a different financial path[00:40:57] Blue Ocean Strategy and moving out of financial competition[00:48:56] Retire on Your Terms, Money is My Friend, and redefining success[00:55:53] Why Bob gives the book away and invites curiosity at any age[01:00:15] Energetic exchange, love, and abundance beyond money[01:06:42] Aligning money, spirituality, healing, and financial well-being[01:10:20] Enlightenment, poverty, and closing thoughtsNotable Quotes:“And most people don't know that they have options and choices that are out of the traditional advisor and industry created box.” - Bob Coleman [00:05:02]“What if we think about it differently and say, what if we recreate the rule?

With the 160th observance of Juneteenth, the United States enters the two-week corridor between the largest Black liberation ritual directly connected to global rituals of African self-determination and the country's nativist Semi-quincentennial Fourth of July celebration ritual. In a country entangled in a war of choice, this week marked a gauche white nationalist White House lawn brawlfest, the opening of the Obama Presidential Center, the continuing celebrations and tensions surrounding soccer's North America-hosted World Cup, and the multinational New York Knicks Basketball Championship Parade and Ceremony. Alongside these rituals, a proliferation of Juneteenth Emancipation Day/Jubilee commemorative events is taking place. This unique convergence raises questions of Governance, Cultural Meaning-Making and Movement and Memory in the context of US and global Social Structures on the brink of renegotiations. Ritual moments are public narratives that reveal various values while often threatening to flatten looming realities. The space between Juneteenth and July 4 allows us to also consider spaces between facts and wishes, remembrances and aspirations.Are you a member of Knarrative?

In this episode of the Observatory Podcast, Scott and LaRae Wright explore primitive skills gatherings—family-friendly, community-centered events where people learn ancestral skills like fire-making, basket weaving, pottery, herbalism, animal processing, drum making, flute playing, and nature awareness. Scott shares his experience with Fire to Fire, Elkhorn, and Rabbit Stick, and how these gatherings helped reconnect him to music, nature, community, and the deeper traditions carried through human history.Together, they discuss why these spaces are about more than survival skills. They are places of learning, wellness, creativity, barter, storytelling, and connection back to the land and each other. Whether you are curious about wilderness skills, ancestral technology, natural medicine, family camping, or simply finding a more grounded community, this conversation is an invitation to step out of everyday noise and into something older, simpler, and deeply human.Timestamps:[00:00:03] Welcome to The Observatory Podcast[00:00:20] Introducing primitive skills gatherings and why they matter[00:01:20] Fire to Fire, Elkhorn, and Rabbit Stick[00:03:21] Why people seek community and family-friendly learning spaces[00:04:35] Fire-making, basketry, plants, pottery, and ancestral skills[00:07:02] Learning as beginners and the joy of community[00:11:20] Reconnecting with nature, ancestors, and older technologies[00:12:27] Camping, primitive living, and stepping into a time capsule[00:13:11] Scott's transformative first experience with drumming and fire[00:14:20] Mercantile tents, handmade goods, and barter fair traditions[00:19:00] Why the education and experience are so valuable[00:20:15] Camp Mom, newcomer support, and feeling safe in community[00:23:07] Elders, younger teachers, and keeping traditions alive[00:27:00] Presence in nature, owl eyes, and meditative awareness[00:28:22] Upcoming gatherings and how listeners can get involvedNotable Quotes:“They've been very transformational in my life and I've watched it transform other people's lives as well.” - Scott Wright [00:40]“And you're learning in a community of people that everyone's a learner.” - LaRae Wright [07:02]“They come from all over and it's a great way to again build this community, build this sense of connection back to nature, connection back to you know, our ancestors in many ways and what they may have experienced or what they were doing and have a real sense of appreciation for the technology they lived with and the technology that we live with and how to find balance between the two.” - Scott Wright [11:20]“And it's connecting back to those, those ancestral roots that we all have encoded in our DNA somewhere.” - LaRae Wright [11:48]“I mean, you can't even put a price on the kind of education that you're going to receive at those.” - Scott Wright [19:04]“You can feel the difference because it's like checking out of all of those, those day to day things that we experience like traffic and being on your phone and social media and the news and it's just an opportunity to check out of all that stuff and take a break.” - LaRae Wright [21:26]Relevant Links:Subscribe to the podcast: Apple PodcastProduced by NC Productions
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has reportedly been left feeling increasingly isolated after being excluded entirely from this year's Order of the Garter ceremony at Windsor Castle. Andrew had participated in the event in previous years and attended its private pre-ceremony lunch as recently as last year, but his removal from the order meant he was absent from every part of the 2026 observance. A source described the occasion as a painful reminder of everything Andrew has lost, particularly because senior members of his family—including King Charles, Queen Camilla and Prince William—continued with the ceremony without him.His exclusion followed the loss of his remaining royal titles and honors as controversy over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein continued to engulf him. Andrew was also absent from Trooping the Colour and is now living in Norfolk while police investigate allegations of misconduct in public office; he was arrested on suspicion of that offense in February and later released under investigation. Andrew has consistently denied wrongdoing, but his complete disappearance from major royal occasions shows how thoroughly the monarchy has distanced itself from him and how far he has fallen from his former position within the institution.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
