Register for the free classes, Continuing the Walk for Peace: An Inner Peace Toolkit: https://buddhismforeveryone.com/walk-for-peace-toolkit In this episode, we talk about your monkey. The monkey on your back.   You know the one. The brilliant, overachieving, slightly unhinged creature swinging through your mind at 2:00 a.m. reorganizing your life, replaying arguments, drafting emails you will never send.   In an old Buddhist story, a man is given a magical monkey by his spiritual teacher. The magical monkey can do anything. Grant any wish.   At first, it's amazing. The monkey builds him a palace! But then comes the problem. "Now what?" the monkey asks. "What next?" "More! More!"   Day and night, the monkey pesters him. The man can't rest. He can hardly sleep at night.   Finally, he returns to the Buddhist master and begs for his help.  The master gives him a single curly hair and says, "Have the monkey make this straight."   The monkey pulls it straight. It springs back. He pulls it again. It springs back again. The monkey sits down, completely absorbed in concentration. In mindfulness, the monkey becomes peaceful. And the man finally sleeps. That's the secret.   You don't get rid of the monkey mind. You give it something simple and steady to do. Breathe. Be present.   Enter: the breath. When your thoughts are racing, don't argue with them. Don't try to solve your entire existence before lunch. Just gently anchor your attention to one full inhale… and one full exhale.   Feel the air enter your nose. Feel the air in your body as you breathe deeply and slowly. Watch the breath leaving your nostrils.   That's it.   The breath is your curly hair. It keeps bouncing back. There's always another inhalation, another exhalation. Your mind will wander. Of course it will. That's what monkeys do. When you notice, kindly guide it back. No judgment. No spiritual performance review.   Just come home to the present moment.   The present moment is not dramatic. It's not flashy. But it is peaceful. And when you anchor yourself here, even for a few breaths, the monkey in the jungle quiets. You do not have to straighten every curly hair in your life. You just have to come home to the breath. And in that simple returning, again and again, the wild monkey becomes your ally. Your friend. "Don't run back to the past, don't anticipate the future. the future has not arrived;   and any present phenomenon you clearly discern in every case. The unfaltering, the unshakable: having known that, foster it.   Today's the day to keenly work— who knows, tomorrow may bring death! For there is no bargain to be struck with Death and his mighty horde.   One who keenly meditates like this, tireless all night and day: that's who has one fine night— so declares the peaceful sage. —Buddha, One Fine Night Sutra References and Links Buddha.

In addition to our chanting 16 rounds daily, we must all read at least one chapter of the Bhagavad-gītā. Read one chapter one day then go on to the next chapter the next day and in this way, after 18 days, we will have completed one reading. After four or five such complete reading we will know Bhagavad-gītā as it is and our questions and doubts will be answered.

Sex for secrets. In an age dominated by digital surveillance, human desire remains a vulnerability. Foreign intelligence agencies are still using intimacy as a tool for gathering information. Is there a way to protect national security secrets from sexpionage? If trained officials with security clearances can be compromised in this way, how safe are our secrets?

After a tumultuous start to his second term, President Donald Trump is looking to reset the reigning narrative about his leadership with Americans. In his first State of the Union address of his second term, the president tried to sell the country on his economic agenda, working to counter increasingly dim views of his economic stewardship. Did he succeed? And critically, will he able to convince Americans to keep Republicans' control of Congress in the midterms?

Season 6, Episode 720: Servicing the College Fence Builders Excerpt, An Age Gap Hotwife Novella, written and narrated by podcast host Ruan Willow. Blurb: In this MMMMMF, John continues to lead his wife through sharing events with work men who come to the house, and the big surprise of the day is she's helping the work men work this time! She gets a special 'uniform', which is skimpier than one would expect anyone to do work in, but that's not the biggest shocker of the day. When the workers arrive, Laney's jaw drops as she had expected one man, but it's a crew! Not just any crew, this is a band of five sexy strong male college students who build, repair, and paint fences. As John dictates the rules for the day, and for the spicy event that will be the hot delicious finale, all the men and Laney are ready to tear into the day with lusty excited hopes. They are all ecstatic about all the potential dreamy flirty pitstops along the way as they do their duty to get the fence job done, but with much more salacious edging than any of them had expected. Being the female in the group, Laney is looking forward to so many high riding peaks, her highest count ever will surely be achieved with a full beefy crew like this. John's certainly not left out of the fun though! He has outdone himself this time in delivering a scheme for one of Laney's topmost unmet fantasies, and his beaming smile tells all. He's not only overindulgent with his wife, but he's going to reap all the steamy benefits once the guys head home, and for years and years to come thereafter. He's no dummy!

התוכן נאמר במגילה על מרדכי "איש יהודי הי' בשושן הבירה": גם בשושן הבירה הכירו אותו (לא בתור "מרדכי, אלא) בתור "יהודי"! בניגוד לשיטה שצ"ל "יהודי [רק] באהליך" אבל בחוץ בין הגויים אין להבליט היותו יהודי כדי לא להרגיז אותם וכו' – נאמר במגילה שלא זהו הסדר, אלא דוקא מי שגם ב"שושון הבירה" ניכר שהוא "יהודי" מצליח לעמוד מול "שושן הבירה", עם מלך "מושל בכיפה", ושרים כמו "ממוכן זה המן" וכו'. ועד"ז בסיום המגילה נאמר "כי מרדכי היהודי משנה למלך אחשורוש וגו'": גם כאשר זה כבר לא עת צרה, אין "מרדכי" טוען שכעת ניתן וצריך להתנהג עפ"י שכל, לפי הסדר של המדינה, ואין צורך להכריז בכ"מ שהוא "יהודי" – אלא גם אז, כאשר נתמנה להיות "משנה למלך", ה"ה "מרדכי היהודי"! ואין צריך עצה אחרת להצליח ולהשאר "משנה למלך" – לא רק כי כך אומרת התורה, אלא גם "אחשורוש" מסכים שמרדכי יהי' "משנה למלך" רק מפני שרואה שהוא איש אמת ואינו מתפעל מאף א' ונשאר "יהודי".משיחת פורים ה'תשכ"ח ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=25-02-2026 Synopsis The Megillah says of Mordechai, “There was a Jewish man in Shushan the capital,” meaning that even in Shushan the capital, he was seen as a “Jewish man.” This contrasts with those who argue that one should be a “Jew [only] in your tent,” whereas one should avoid emphasizing one's Jewishness in public, so as not to provoke the gentiles etc. The Megillah makes clear that specifically one who is seen as a Jew even in Shushan the capital can stand strong against “Shushan the capital,” against a king who “rules over the entire globe” and ministers like Haman etc. Similarly, the end of the Megillah says, “For Mordechai the Jew was second to King Achashveirosh…” Meaning: even after the danger has passed and Mordechai is second to the king he doesn't say that now one should follow the norms of society and that it's no longer necessary to publicly proclaim that one is a Jew. Rather, he continues to behave as Mordechai the Jew, and he needs no other strategy to succeed and to remain second to the king. Not only is this what the Torah says, but even Achashveirosh agrees that Mordechai should be second to the king precisely because he sees that Mordechai is a man of truth who remains a Jew and isn't swayed by anyone.Excerpt from sichah of Purim 5728 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=25-02-2026

התוכן [המשך] והתורה ניתנה למטה דוקא כדי להיות "ממוצע" שמחברת את ענינים הגשמיים עם ה', שגם בהם, שהם מצ"ע תחת הזמן, יהי' ענין הנצחיות – "חרות ממלאך המות". ולכן לידת משה, שענינה – המשכת התורה שפועלת נצחיות בעולם, ""מכפרת" ומבטלת את מה שנגרם ע"י "יום המיתה" – שתפלה לא עוזרת. וענין זה, שהלידה תבטל ענין המיתה, הי' בגלוי אצל משה, שדוקא עליו נאמר "לא מת"! כי מזה שכבר בלידתו "נתמלא הבית כולו אור", מוכח שמהותו העצמי הו"ע התורה – נצחיות, ולכן (בענינו העצמי) נשאר "חי וקיים" ב"זרעו בחיים" – "סמוכים איש מפיש איש" עד למשה רבינו ובנשיאי ישראל שבכל דור. ועפי"ז מובן גם מדוע נס פורים שעי"ז "קיימו מה שקיבלו כבר" הי' דוקא בחודש אדר שבו נולד משה.משיחת פורים ה'תשי"ט ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=24-02-2026 Synopsis (Continued.) The Torah was specifically given in this world, in order to connect physical matter with Hashem and to imbue the world, which by nature is subject to time, with the quality of eternity, “freedom from the angel of death.” Therefore, the birth of Moshe (whose role is to bring Torah into the world, and thereby bring eternity in the world) “atones for” and nullifies the effect of the “day of death.” This idea that birth nullifies death was seen visibly in the case of Moshe (one of the unique individuals whom the Sages tell us “did not die”) because at the moment of his birth, “the entire house became filled with light” (the light of Torah), showing that his very essence is Torah (eternity). Therefore Moshe inherently “lives and endures” in “his offspring who are alive,” through those ordained one from the other going back to Moshe Rabbeinu and through the Nesi'im in every generation. Accordingly, we can also understand why the miracle of Purim – when “they upheld what they had already accepted” – occurred specifically in the month of Adar, the month of Moshe's birth.Excerpt from sichah of Purim 5719 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=24-02-2026 לזכות שניאור זלמן הכהן בן רוזה חנה שי' ליום ההולדת שלו ז' אדר – לשנת ברכה והצלחה, ואריכות ימים ושנים טובותנדבת אביו ר' ‏אברהם הכהן שי'‏

America needs affordable energy, and that demand sits at the crossroads of creating economic stability while balancing environmental responsibility. Green energy solutions like wind and solar farms hold promise, but there's been strong pushback over safety and land use. As the country weighs questions about infrastructure and affordability, what kind of energy future should we invest in? USA TODAY Reporter Elizabeth Weise joins USA TODAY's The Excerpt to explore those questions and to share the perspective of farmers who have grappled with the issue of land use.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of child abuse. Something was in the air in 1973 where people wanted nostalgia and con artists in their films. But while George Roy Hill teamed up with Redford and Newman for the utter perfection of the genre, Peter Bogdanovich followed up one classic film with another underrated gem. Nothing about this movie is particularly remarkable, save the outstanding performance by 9-year-old Tatum O'Neal. Instead, it's just an aggregate of everyone telling a really good story.

התוכן איתא בגמ': "כיון שנפל פור בחודש אדר שמח (המן) שמחה גדולה אמר נפל לי פור בירח שמת בו משה". זה ששמח כשהפור נפל לחודש אדר ולא לחודש מנחם-אב ש"הוכפלו בו הצרות" החל מחטא העגל ועד חורבן ביהמ"ק, הוא, כי המן ידע שבנ"י יתפללו לה' לבטל הגזירה ולכן "שמח שמחה גדולה" כשהגורל נפל לחודש אדר שבו מת משה, והתפלות הרבות שהתפלל מר"ח עד ז' אדר, לא הצליחו לבטל הגזירה. והענין שתפילה לא עוזרת מצינו רק בחודש אדר. וע"ז אומ' הגמ' "ולא הי' יודע שבז' באדר מת ובז' באדר נולד", ופרש"י "כדאי הלידה שתכפר על המיתה". וצ"ל הלא מיתה מבטלת הלידה ולא להיפך? והביאור: כבר בלידת משה "נתמלא הבית כולו אור" דהכוונה ל"אורה זו תורה", דענינה – למעלה משינויי זמן ומקום. [המשך יבוא].משיחת פורים ה'תשי"ט ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=23-02-2026 Synopsis The Gemara says, “When the lot fell on the month of Adar, [Haman] rejoiced greatly. He said: The lot has fallen for me in the month that Moshe died…” The reason he rejoiced when the lot fell on the month of Adar, rather than Menachem-Av (the month when “the troubles were doubled” including the sin of the golden calf and the destruction of the Beis Hamikdash) is as follows: Haman knew that the Jewish people were going to daven to Hashem to annul the decree. Therefore, he rejoiced when the lot fell on Adar because in Adar we find that Moshe davened at length to annul the decree (of his death on 7 Adar), yet his tefillah did not succeed. This is what the Gemara means when it says “but he did not know that on the 7th of Adar he died, and on the 7th of Adar he was born.” Rashi explains that “The birth is worthy to atone for the death,” but seemingly, the opposite is true – death undoes the effect of birth? The answer is that Moshe's birth canceled the effect of his death because when he was born, “the entire house became filled with light” – the light of Torah,” which transcends the limitations of time and space.

התוכן ברוב השנים חל ז' אדר בסמיכות לפ' תצוה. "ואתה תצוה" קאי על משה רבינו, ו"תצוה" הוא מלשון צוותא וחיבור. כלומר, להתקשר ולהתחבר עם משה. שזהו ע"י לימוד התורה, שעל ידו מתייחד האדם עם שכל התורה, "תורת משה", ובמילא עם משה. ומובן, שכאשר לומד תורה ביחד עם משה – ניתוסף בהבנה והשגה בתורה שלא בערך. ובזה ניתוסף עוד כאשר לומד תורה עם משה באופן שכתוב ב"תורת משה" עצמה – ש"כל האומר שמועה משם אומרה יהא רואה לעצמו כאילו בעל השמועה עומד כנגדו"!; יש להשתדל "להכניס" גם הזולת בלימוד התורה, ואף ה"פשוט שבפשוטים". ואדרבה – בנוגע ל"תורת משה", תורה שבכתב, השייכות לזה של ה"פשוט שבפשוטים" ש"לא ידע מאי קאמר" הוא בדיוק כמו של משה, וגם הוא חייב לברך ברכת התורה על פסוקים אלו שלומד או (עכ"פ) שומע! ומי שמנסה "לתרץ" את עצמו שצריכים תחילה ללמד את ה"פשוט שבפשוטים" אל"ף בי"ת – הרי זהו האל"ף-בי"ת שלו!משיחת אור לז' אדר ה'תשמ"ה ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=22-02-2026 Synopsis 7 Adar usually falls in proximity to parashas Ve'atah Tetzaveh, “You shall command” – a verse that addresses Moshe Rabbeinu, and connotes a connection and bond (tzavsa vechibur) with Moshe. This connection is achieved through Torah study, which unites a person with the intellect of Torah –Toras Moshe – and therefore with Moshe himself. It is understood that when one learns Torah together with Moshe, his comprehension and grasp of Torah are elevated beyond all measure, and this is heightened even more when one learns Torah in the manner described in Torah itself: “Whoever repeats a teaching in the name of the one who said it should view himself as if the one who said it is standing before him.” One must also make an effort to bring others into Torah learning, including the simplest Jews. And in fact, when it comes to the Written Torah (Toras Moshe), the connection of even the simplest Jew (who “does not know what he is saying”) is exactly the same as Moshe's; he too is obligated to recite the blessing over the Torah on the verses that he learns or (at least) hears. And someone who tries to excuse himself by saying that he must first teach this simple person the alef-beis – the truth is that this is his alef-beis.Excerpt from sichah of 7 Adar 5745 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=22-02-2026

An alchemical stew, correcting problems, and putting it all together. Sam Cohen (Apollo Sunshine, Yellowbirds) “Multi-instrumentalist Sam Cohen writes naturalist songs steeped in blissed out soul grooves and futurist guitar work. This former member of Apollo Sunshine and leader of Yellowbirds is no stranger to fuzzy psychedelia and enchanting melodies. They are presented here with the direct minimalism innate to solo work by John Lennon and Neil Young. Explosive synthesizers and earth-rattling guitar bring an otherworldliness that maintains its roots on this latest track produced with Danger Mouse."

Maryland Governor Wes Moore was taken aback when he learned that he wasn't on President Donald Trump's invite list for the White House's annual dinner for governors, a historically bipartisan event. As a leading figure in the Democratic Party a larger question looms, though: how does he think his party can prove to voters that they've figured out a way forward heading into this year's midterm elections? Gov. Wes Moore joins The Excerpt to share thoughts on all things politics.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

(this episode is an excerpt) --- Welcome to the third episode of our new series dedicated to the builders of the Farcaster ecosystem (⁠⁠⁠⁠https://farcaster.xyz⁠⁠⁠⁠). In this limited run, we are going to understand the strategies, timing, and mental models of the founders building the next generation of onchain experiences. In today's episode, we sit down with Ahn.eth (⁠⁠⁠⁠https://x.com/ahn_going⁠ and ⁠https://farcaster.xyz/ahn.eth⁠), the founder of Quidli (⁠⁠⁠https://quid.li/⁠). We are looking at the plumbing of social finance with Ahn.eth (Justin), a founder who is tackling one of the most persistent points of friction in crypto: making value transfer as intuitive as sending a direct message. We discuss: + why your social graph might be your most valuable on-chain asset, + the structural limitations of current identity systems like ENS, and + how to build a 'Yellow Pages' for the decentralized web that works across Farcaster, Telegram, and email without locking users into a single platform.It is a very useful episode for understanding how portable social graphs can abstract away complex blockchain UX to enable seamless value transfer across any platform.-- The podcasts are authored, edited and produced by Raphael Grieco (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠raphael-grieco.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠olivecapital.vc⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠).

Last week, the Trump administration announced it was repealing a 2009 determination called the endangerment finding. That finding had been the basis by which the EPA had assumed the right to regulate greenhouse gases for nearly 20 years. How will its repeal impact Americans and is the Supreme Court likely to join this heated debate? Michael Gerrard, a law professor at Columbia University, joins The Excerpt to share his insights regarding the legal, political and scientific issues at play.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.

In a decade of darker, boundary-crossing films, this week's film is just under the rader for having some of the darkest undertones of all. And that's beyond the fact that it might be one of the best portrayals of sex workers on screen, refusing to judge its subject on anything but her actual character. I mean, yes she is being stalked by a violent powerful man to get murdered, but it has nothing to do with her means of income. the problem is that this movie is just plain weird, and not for any real reason. But it's worth the price of admission for Jane Fonda giving an absolutely stunning performance. Sit back and relax and fall lin love with Bree as we watch Klute on Have a Good Movie!

Who will be the Democratic presidential nominee in 2028? What will the price of gold be at the end of the week? Who will win the World Cup? All of these are relatively benign bets you can make today. But there are other bets that maybe aren't so benign, like will Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro be removed from office by the end of January? That well-timed bet, made in the hours before the U.S. captured and extracted Maduro, netted the anonymous investor who made it $400,000. Are prediction markets democratizing information as some argue or are we monetizing reality in a way that incentivizes perverse motives?

For the first time in over half a century, there are no nuclear arms controls in place between the world's two largest nuclear powers, the US and Russia. With a rising China growing its nuclear arsenal while it continues to assert its power on the international stage, we ask, is this the beginning of a new Cold War era?

It started with the banning of the Associated Press from certain White House events over its refusal to use the term “Gulf of America” instead of “Gulf of Mexico.” Then there was a recent FBI search of a Washington Post reporter's home. And then in January two journalists, including former CNN host, Don Lemon were arrested following an immigration protest at Cities Church in St Paul, Minnesota. What's happening to freedom of the press? First Amendment scholar RonNell Andersen Jones, professor of law at the University of Utah, joins The Excerpt to dig into all of it.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.
