Mónica Garcías nos propone un crucero fluvial, partiendo desde Calcuta, con todo el sabor de la cocina y las especias indias

“True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice.” — Martin Luther King Jr.In this episode, I reflect on the many dimensions of peace; from the first time I heard the word shanti on the banks of the Ganges, to the everyday ways we can make room for peace within ourselves, in our relationships, and in our world. As always, we'll begin with a ten-minute meditation before moving into this week's reflection. Enjoy the show!

El artista argentino radicado en Sídney, Sebastián Giunta, habla sobre su primera exposición fotográfica, The Ganges: Life on the River. La muestra forma parte del Head On Photography Festival, uno de los eventos más importantes de la fotografía en Australia.

In today's episode of Around the Board:Andy kicks things off by bringing Rajas of the Ganges to the table for our Great Game Debate! Will he convince the crew it deserves more love, or will the table turn against him?Next, Kelly challenges the group to a Shelf Trade featuring three dice placement classics — Grand Austria Hotel, The Castles of Burgundy, and Kingsburg. Which one would you keep, trade, or toss?Then John takes aim at Andy's “questionable” game tastes in a fiery face-off, before Daniel wraps things up with a round of Survey Says — where only one host can win and earn two minutes to rant and rave about whatever they want!

In Infectus: Bedtime Stories of Horror, Todd C. Elliott traces one demonic contagion from the first sitar on the Ganges to Beatlemania's scream. Thirteen linked tales reveal how humanity's greatest inventions—music, empire, religion, pop culture—mutated the infection, not destroyed it. From colonial vampires to undead children, the parasite wears civilization's face. On Strange Planet, Elliott exposes the dark thread stitching history's nightmares: progress is just the curse evolving. Is mass media the final host? And if innocence is Patient Zero, what's the cure for a pandemic older than time? GUEST: Louisiana-born gothic maestro Todd C. Elliott crafts nightmares where history bleeds into myth. Author of Infectus: Bedtime Stories of Horror—a 5,000-year anthology of demonic contagion—he's compared to King, Lovecraft, and Rice, yet his humid, cinematic voice is singularly his. His nonfiction bombshells, A Rose By Many Other Names (JFK's overlooked witness) and Axes of Evil (the Ax-Man murders), unearth real conspiracies that mirror his fiction's unseen hand. Elliott doesn't scare with ghosts; he infects with the truth that civilization itself may be the monster.

Cette semaine, Alex' emmène Emi de Wander the Board et Zephiriel en Inde avec Rajas of the Ganges, un jeu de pose d'ouvriers stratégique très coloré ! Dans Rajas, il va falloir faire briller son royaume plus fort que celui des autres. Commerce, karma et dés sculptent le destin des joueuses — et il faudra composer avec prestige et profits pour esperer l'emporter ! Rajas of the Ganges Par Inka Brand & Markus Brand Illustré par Dennis Lohausen Édité par Huch! & Friends & R&r Games De 2 à 4 joueuses Pour 12 ans et + Pour 45 à 75 minutes Description : L'Inde à l'époque de l'empire moghol. Cette puissance en plein essor étend son territoire et gagne en prospérité grâce au commerce de la soie, du thé et des épices. Des monuments imposants tels que le Taj Mahal ou le Fort Rouge sont érigés. De somptueux jardins sont créés, ainsi que de nouveaux édifices et parcs, qui émerveilleront les générations futures au cours des siècles à venir. Alors que l'empire a pratiquement atteint son étendue maximale et se trouve dans une période de relative stabilité, les joueurs vont incarner des rajahs ou des ranis et s'efforcer de se montrer à la hauteur de leur rang de vénérables souverains. Pour cela, ils devront transformer leurs terres en provinces opulentes et prestigieuses. En prenant garde de veiller à leur karma, les joueurs devront se développer de façon équilibrée, en conciliant au mieux prestige et prospérité. Celui ou celle qui connaîtra la plus grande réussite accédera au statut envié de souverain légendaire de la nation.

Fluent Fiction - Hindi: Diwali Dreams: Love, Budget & Creativity by the Ganges Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hi/episode/2025-10-21-22-34-02-hi Story Transcript:Hi: गंगा किनारे बसा हुआ "चायवाला" चाय की महक और दीवाली की सजावट से सजा हुआ था।En: The "चायवाला|Chaiwala" situated by the banks of the Ganga was adorned with the fragrance of tea and the decorations of Diwali.Hi: इस अद्भुत चाय की दुकान पर, हर कोई आने वाले त्योहार की तैयारी में मग्न था।En: At this wonderful tea shop, everyone was engrossed in preparations for the upcoming festival.Hi: आरव और मीरा भी वहीं आए थे, अपने दीवाली की शॉपिंग करने के लिए।En: Aarav and Meera also came there to do their Diwali shopping.Hi: आरव ने अपनी कमाई का हिसाब लगाया।En: Aarav calculated his earnings.Hi: इस बार बजट तंग था, पर वह मीरा के लिए दीवाली को खास बनाना चाहता था।En: This time the budget was tight, but he wanted to make Diwali special for Meera.Hi: मीरा उत्साहित थी और उसने ठान लिया था कि इस बार दीवाली सजावट सबसे सुंदर होगी।En: Meera was excited and determined that this year's Diwali decorations would be the most beautiful.Hi: गंगा के किनारे से आती ठंडी हवा में, दोनों ने चाय की चुस्की के बीच खरीदारी का सफर शुरू किया।En: In the cool breeze coming from the riverbank, they started their shopping journey with sips of tea.Hi: मीरा हर दुकान को देखती, हर सजावट की तारीफ करती।En: Meera admired every shop, every decoration.Hi: लेकिन आरव के माथे पर चिंता की लकीरें साफ नजर आ रही थीं।En: But worry lines were clearly visible on Aarav's forehead.Hi: "अब क्या करें?" आरव ने सोचा। "सजावट भी लेनी है और खर्च भी न बढ़े।"En: "What to do now?" Aarav thought. "I need to buy decorations, but also keep the expenses down."Hi: मीरा ने कहा, "आरव, ये लालटेन कितनी प्यारी हैं! लेकिन हमें क्या करना चाहिए?"En: Meera said, "Aarav, these lanterns are so lovely! But what should we do?"Hi: आरव ने थोड़ी सूझ-बूझ से सोचा।En: Aarav thought with a bit of cleverness.Hi: उसने मीरा को कहा, "चलो हम कुछ अलग सोचते हैं। सुंदर और सस्ता भी होना चाहिए।"En: He told Meera, "Let's think of something different. It should be beautiful and inexpensive too."Hi: थोड़ी ही देर में, उन्होंने एक छोटी सी गली में एक सजीव स्टॉल देखा।En: Shortly thereafter, they saw a vibrant stall in a small alley.Hi: वहाँ हाथ से बनी सजावटें थीं। सुंदर और अनोखी।En: There were handmade decorations there—beautiful and unique.Hi: नारंगी मारिगोल्ड्स, दीयों से सजे माला और रंगीन कपड़े की टोकरियाँ।En: Orange marigolds, garlands adorned with lamps, and baskets made of colorful fabric.Hi: आरव और मीरा ने उस स्टॉल पर खुशनुमा सौगातों को चुना।En: Aarav and Meera chose joyful gifts from that stall.Hi: उन सजावटों में एक प्यार भरी भावना थी, जो उनके बजट में भी थी।En: Those decorations held a loving sentiment and fit within their budget.Hi: वापस आते समय, गंगा किनारे धुंधली लौ में उनकी मुस्कान और चाय की मिठास घुल गई।En: On their way back, in the faint glow near the Ganga, their smiles blended with the sweetness of tea.Hi: आरव ने सीखा कि थोड़ा सा रचनात्मकता और सोच का जादू खर्च को भी खास बना सकता है।En: Aarav learned that a little creativity and thoughtfulness can make expenses special.Hi: मीरा ने महसूस किया कि कभी-कभी कम में भी बहुत कुछ मिल सकता है, और वह व्यावहारिक दृष्टिकोन को नजरअंदाज नहीं कर सकती।En: Meera realized that sometimes you can get a lot with very little and that she couldn't ignore a practical perspective.Hi: दीवाली की रात को, उनका घर साधारण मगर दिल से सजा हुआ था।En: On the night of Diwali, their home was simple yet decorated from the heart.Hi: दोनों ने मिलकर दीप जलाए, मिठाइयों का स्वाद चखा और इस नए अनुभव का आनंद लिया।En: Together, they lit lamps, tasted sweets, and enjoyed this new experience.Hi: यह दीवाली उनके लिए हमेशा यादगार रहेगी।En: This Diwali will always be memorable for them.

This year, as they have for millennia, many people around the world will set out on pilgrimages. But these are not only journeys of personal and spiritual devotion - they are also political acts, affirmations of identity and engagements with deep-rooted historical narratives. In Holy Places: How Pilgrimage Changed the World (Profile, 2025) Professor Kathryn Hurlock follows the trail of pilgrimage through nineteen sacred sites - from the temples of Jerusalem to the banks of the Ganges, by way of Iona, Lourdes, Amritsar and Buenos Aires - revealing the many ways in which this ancient practice has shaped our religions and our world. Pilgrimages have transformed the fates of cities, anointed dynasties, provided guidance in hard times and driven progress in good. Filled with fascinating insights, Holy Places unveils the complex histories and contemporary endurance of one of our most fundamental human urges. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Today, we're sharing a conversation with Jeff Burningham—entrepreneur, former candidate for governor, and now author of a new book called The Last Book Written by a Human.This conversation begins with an unforgettable scene Jeff witnessed in India on the banks of the Ganges—a place where death, life, and the mundane all unfolded side by side. That image becomes a frame for everything we discussed: the reality of constant transformation and the deep human need for presence in the middle of it all.Jeff describes what he calls “the old game”—a life built around achievement, hustle, and doing more to be more. And then he shares what happened when that game stopped working for him, and how it led him to something new: a life of deeper being, awareness, and love.We also talked about AI—not just as a technological shift, but as what he calls a “cosmic mirror.” Jeff believes that AI is here not to replace us, but to reveal us—to help us see what's essential and ask who we want to become. The path forward, he says, will require us to do something radical: give up ego, lean into love, and return to the wisdom of the body, nature, and family.In the face of rapid change and uncertainty, Jeff invites us to return to what's most human. We're so grateful to Jeff for this book and this conversation.You can order the book from Bookshop here or from Amazon here!Get the Restore recordingsLearn more and register for REPAIR

While in Seattle in the fall of 1968, Śrīla Prabhupāda introduced for the first time this song to be sung during the evening ārati ceremony. GAURA-ĀRATI by Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura (1) jaya jaya gorācānder ārotik śobhā jāhnavī-taṭa-vane jaga-mana-lobhā (2) dakhiṇe nitāicānd, bāme gadādhara nikaṭe adwaita, śrīnivāsa chatra-dhara (3) bosiyāche gorācānd ratna-siṁhāsane ārati koren brahmā-ādi deva-gaṇe (4) narahari-ādi kori' cāmara ḍhulāya sañjaya-mukunda-bāsu-ghoṣ-ādi gāya (5) śaṅkha bāje ghaṇṭā bāje bāje karatāla madhura mṛdaṅga bāje parama rasāla (6) bahu-koti candra jini' vadana ujjvala gala-deśe bana-mālā kore jhalamala (7) śiva-śuka-nārada preme gada-gada bhakativinoda dekhe gorāra sampada (1) All glories, all glories to the beautiful ārati ceremony of Lord Caitanya! This Gaura-ārati is taking place in a grove on the banks of the Jāhnavī [Ganges] and is attracting the minds of all living entities in the universe. (2) On Lord Caitanya's right side is Lord Nityānanda, and on His left is Śrī Gadādhara. Nearby stands Śrī Advaita, and Śrīvāsa Ṭhākura is holding an umbrella over Lord Caitanya's head. (3) Lord Caitanya has sat down on a jeweled throne, and the demigods, headed by Lord Brahmā, perform the ārati ceremony. (4) Narahari Sarakāra and other associates of Lord Caitanya fan Him with cāmaras, and devotees headed by Sañjaya Paṇḍita, Mukunda Datta, and Vāsu Ghoṣa sing sweet kīrtana. (5) Conchshells, bells, and karatālas resound, and the mṛdaṅgas play very sweetly. This kīrtana music is supremely sweet and relishable to hear. (6) The brilliance of Lord Caitanya's face conquers millions upon millions of moons, and the garland of forest flowers around His neck shines. (7) Lord Śiva, Śukadeva Gosvāmī, and Nārada Muni are all there, and their voices are choked with the ecstasy of transcendental love. Thus Ṭhakura Bhaktivinoda envisions the glory of Lord Śrī Caitanya. https://vedabase.io/en/library/spl/2/ ----------------------------------------------------------- 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualsong #arti #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

When Ovid was exiled from Rome to a border town on the Black Sea, he despaired at his bleak and barbarous new surroundings. Like many Greeks and Romans, Ovid thought the outer reaches of his world was where civilization ceased to exist. Our own fascination with the Greek and Roman world has for centuries followed this perspective, shrouding cultures at the far reaches of their influence in myth. But what was it like to live on the edges of these empires, on the boundaries of the known world? In The Far Edges of the Known World (W.W. Norton & Company, 2025) ancient historian Owen Rees draws on archaeological excavations to reveal these so-called borders as thriving multicultural spaces. This is where the boundaries of “civilized” and “barbarian” began to dissipate; where traditional rules didn't always apply; where different cultures intermarried; and where nomadic tribes built their own cities. Transporting readers through historical spheres of influence, Rees journeys from the sandy caravan routes of Morocco to the freezing winters of the northern Black Sea, from the Red River valley of Vietnam to the rain-lashed forts south of Hadrian's Wall. Beyond well-remembered figures like Cleopatra and Caesar, Rees introduces us to the everyday people who called the borderlands home. We meet an enterprising sex worker in Egypt's Naucratis, gambling soldiers at Hadrian's Wall in England, a Greco-Buddhist monk hailing from the Ganges, and more. As Rees shows, exchanges of trends, ideas, even religious practices were happening all over the world. Learn more about your ad choices.

From ancient empires to modern metropolises, what do rivers tell us about the way humans build, worship, and fight for their worlds? In this episode, historian Vanessa Taylor joins host Caroline Dodds Pennock to explore the powerful role rivers have played in shaping human history, culture, and identity. Drawing from her new book, Seven Rivers, Vanessa takes us on a journey down the Nile, Danube, Niger, Mississippi, Ganges, Yangtze, and Thames to explore the empires built along their banks, the spiritual and cultural significance these waterways hold, and how they've been used — and abused — throughout history. Vanessa Taylor is a leading environmental historian and expert on the politics of water. Her book, Seven Rivers: A Journey Through the Currents of Human History, is available now.

En esta temporada no pretendemos explicarte nada de India. Porque la India simplemente; no se explica. India Se respira,  Se confunde. Te rompe. Te toca. Te atraviesa. Y eso… eso es lo que queremos provocar con esta temporada.Vamos a sumergirnos en su espiritualidad, cultura y filosofia,  no como turistas espirituales, sino como viajeras del alma. Vamos a explorar por qué la vaca es sagrada, qué representa Shiva cuando destruye, o Kali cuando saca la lengua. Por qué el Ganges purifica y por qué el caos, allá, no es algo que se quiera evitar... sino habitar.

Hacer click aquí para enviar sus comentarios a este cuento.Juan David Betancur Fernandezelnarradororal@gmail.comHabía una vez, en la era de los grandes reinos cuando los dioses aún caminaban entre los hombres y los ríos hablaban en sueños,, vivía el rey Sagara, poderoso y orgulloso. Deseando afirmar su supremacía, ordenó a sus 60,000 hijos que buscaran el caballo robado de un ritual sagrado.Este caballo había sido robado por Indra y llevado a Patala cerca de la ermita de el sabio Kapila.  Los hijos de Sagara viajaron hasta la ermita de dicho sabio y rodearon y profanaron  el santuario donde el sabio estaba meditando en silencio e ignorante de lo que estaba sucediendo Cuando Kapila abrio los ojos y vio los 60 mil hijos de Sagara alrededor Kapila, . Su mirada era fuego.“La ignorancia es la mayor ofensa,” dijo, y con un solo pensamiento, redujo a cenizas a los 60,000 hijos.Sus almas quedaron atrapadas en el mundo intermedio, sin poder ascender ni reencarnar. El linaje de Sagara quedó maldito.Generaciones después, nació Bhagiratha, último heredero de esa estirpe. No era guerrero ni conquistador, sino un hombre de profunda compasión. Al conocer el destino de sus ancestros, juró liberarlos. Bhagiratha, joven pero sabio, decidió romper el ciclo.Renunció al trono, vistió ropas de corteza, y se retiró a las montañas del Himalaya, donde el cielo toca la tierra donde el aire es delgado y los pensamientos se vuelven claros como cristal.. Allí, entre glaciares y vientos que hablan en lenguas antiguas, meditó durante mil años, inmóvil como una roca, su mente fija en la redención y alimentándose solo de luz y voluntadLos dioses lo observaron. Brahma, el creador, descendió en un rayo de luz.Los dioses lo observaron. Brahma, el creador, se conmovió por su devoción y le ofreció una solución: haría que Ganga, el río celestial que fluía entre las estrellas, descendiera a la tierra para purificar las cenizas de sus ancestros. Pero había un problema:“Si Ganga cae directamente, su fuerza destruirá la tierra. Solo Shiva, el señor de la transformación, puede contenerla.”Bhagiratha comenzó una nueva penitencia, esta vez dirigida a Shiva, el dios que habita en la frontera entre la vida y la muerte. Shiva, con su piel cenicienta y su cabello como raíces cósmicas, meditaba en el monte Kailash. Las plegarias llegaron hasta Shiva  quien . Abrió su tercer ojo, y el universo tembló.Con voz profunda y grave el dios dijo “Acepto tu suplica ”, dijo. “Que Ganga caiga sobre mí.”Y así ocurrió. Los cielos se abrieronDesde los reinos celestiales, Ganga, la diosa del río, descendió. , Ganga descendió como una serpiente de luz, una corriente de agua que brillaba con estrellas. Su cuerpo era agua luminosa, su voz era canto, su mirada era compasión. Pero también era orgullosa.“¿Por qué debo descender al mundo de los hombres?”, preguntó. Bhagiratha respondió: “Para liberar a los que sufren. Para unir cielo y tierra.”Ganga aceptó. Cayó como un torrente de estrellas. Pero justo antes de tocar la tierra, Shiva la atrapó en su cabello, enredándola en sus trenzas como quien guarda una flor de una tormenta o un relámpago en una caja de madera.La diosa se agitó, furiosa. Shiva sonrió, y con un gesto, liberó una hebra de su cabello De esa hebra nació el río Ganga, que serpenteó por las montañas, siguió a Bhagiratha por valles y desiertos, hasta llegar al lugar donde yacían las cenizas de sus ancestros. Al tocar la tierra, el agua cantó.y  Las almas de aquellos 60000 antepasados de Bhagiratha se elevaron como pájaros, libres al fin.Desde entonces, Ganges es más que un río. Es madre, es diosa, es puente e

The devotees, on the other hand, are carefree because they've already signed everything over to the Supreme Personality of Godhead but it's not tyāga, it's virakti, because as they engage in this process, 'paramayā mudāh,' of serving the Lord, they feel happiness. They feel pleasure. It's happier over on our side of the street, because we get to engage directly in chanting the holy name, or it may be happier on their side. Who knows? Because, as we heard this morning after the verse, naiṣātiduḥsahā kṣun māṁ tyaktodam api bādhate pibantaṁ tvan-mukhāmbhoja- cyutaṁ hari-kathāmṛtam (ŚB 10.1.13) Then comes 'vāsudeva-kathā-praśnaḥ puruṣāṁs trīn punāti hi vaktāraṁ pracchakaṁ śrotṝṁs tat-pāda-salilaṁ yathā' (ŚB 10.1.16). Just as the Ganges purifies the whole universe. So similarly, the sound vibration that comes from Krishna, kathā or chanting Hare Krishna, it purifies three kinds of people. The people who are chanting, they get the most credit—that's there in the commentary. The one who's speaking or chanting, they get the most credit (If you want to get extra credit). then next is the people who are listening, and third is everybody else who gets hit. As Nirākula's Mother used to say, because she had a lot of kids, and they'd fight in the backseat of the car, as she was driving, she would say to them, "If you don't settle down in a moment, I'm going to turn around and swing and I don't care who I hit, Joan." And similarly, the holy name doesn't really care who He hits. If you're out on the Avenue and you're chanting, He's going to hit you. In fact, last night, I was appreciating the dogs. I saw at least three dogs go by and, yeah, dogs are very loyal animals they stick with their masters. So they were out for a walk with their master or mistress, and as they walked along, I mean, the person just walked him by the Harinām, that's not our fault. They could have taken another route. And the dogs seemed a little taken aback by the sound vibration, but as they were going by, I was envisioning a sort of car wash where the soul goes through and the cycles unfold, and that animal, who's actually a spirit soul in a dog's body, got cleansed from hearing the sound vibration of the holy name. That's verified in the sixth canto of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. What could be more fun than that? Take your dog through the car wash. He walks by and a little dog, startled by the sound, but you know, you're pulling him through, and he comes out with the holy name in his ears, albeit dog ears. The holy name goes right to the soul. What to speak of the people who could envision fun? ------------------------------------------------------------ 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 ------------------------------------------------------------

The Ganges is a sacred river in India that supports one of the most fertile and densely populated regions on the planet and serves as a site of daily ablutions and funerary rites. When Serena Chopra travelled to India on a Fulbright fellowship, she collected a jar of water from the Ganges to help her stay connected to her ancestral homeland — while learning about her family history, intergenerational trauma, and imagining what liberation can look like. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this moving episode, Acharya Shunya speaks with Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati about her new book Come Home to Yourself — a heartfelt guide for anyone seeking inner peace and spiritual clarity. Sadhviji was a Stanford grad living a typical American life in California — until a trip to India and a dip in the Ganges changed everything. For the past 35+ years, she's lived as a renunciate by the Ganga, immersed in yoga, service, and awakening. This conversation is an invitation to question what we're chasing — and come home to who we really are.  Listen now on Apple Podcasts. #ShadowToSelf #ApplePodcasts #ComeHomeToYourself #SadhviBhagawati #HollywoodToHimalayas #ReturnToSelf #sadhvibhagawati

Kashi, the city of light, stands as a testament to creation, destruction, and ultimately, redemption. This ancient city, bathed in the sacred waters of the Ganges, has a story as old as time itself, intertwined with the divine narratives of Shiva Purana. From Lord Brahma and Vishnu's delusion to Kaal Bhairav's wrathful origin, Kashi has witnessed a play of cosmic forces that ultimately underscored Shiva's supremacy as the lord of creation, destruction, and liberation. The city houses the famed Kashi Vishwanath Jyotirlinga, a beacon of spiritual energy believed to be the embodiment of Shiva himself. It is said that death in this sacred city grants moksha, liberation from the cycle of life and death.Contact, follow and support my work - all in one place: ⁠https://linktr.ee/NamaskarIndiaBibliography:Eck, D.

Today, an episode where I walk with my guest along the paths of Greenham Common in Berkshire, England. We explore how photography, adventure, and purpose can align to become one path. Photographer Tom Warburton retired early and, rather than settle into a slower pace, decided to walk the length of the River Ganges, over 1,100 kilometres from the glacier source in the Himalayas to its confluence with the Yamuna near Prayagraj. It was a journey fuelled by curiosity, a love of walking, a desire to see life away from the main roads, and to photograph people and culture with care and respect. Tom had long held an interest in photography, but like many, life's other responsibilities often came first. So with time finally on his side, he went in search of something deeper, not just images, but understanding. The result? A slow, human journey through rural villages, pilgrimage sites, nature reserves, and towns where he was often the only outsider for miles. In today's episode, we walk and talk about what it means to truly travel with intention, to go off the beaten path, to connect with strangers, and to find portraits in moments where trust is built, not taken. This is a story of walking for photography, walking for perspective, and walking, quite simply, for the love of the road. As the walk draws to a close, Tom arrives in Prayagraj just as the Maha Kumbh Mela begins, a once-in-144-years gathering of extraordinary scale and spirit. On the biggest days, over 40 million people converge: sadhus, pilgrims, Naga ascetics, all drawn to the sacred waters where the Ganges and Yamuna meet. And there's Tom, camera in hand, somehow slipping through the crowds and into the press areas, ready to capture it all. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to Arthelper, who sponsor this show, plus our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week.

But here's the deal: we've had some special releases in between our regular shows, so while it may seem like we're flooding your feed, it's all in the name of keeping things exciting. Or so we tell ourselves. This time, we dove into a true classic that recently got a well-deserved facelift—Cyclades. Originally released in 2009, it was one of those gems we missed before board games became a staple in our lives. And wow, the production quality is nothing short of stunning. For those who picked up the deluxe components, I bet you weren't disappointed. Now, let me be honest—this game exposed my weaknesses in a way I didn't see coming. It wasn't the game's fault; it was mine. But hey, maybe that's a sign of a solid strategy game—one that lays bare where you struggle and pushes you to improve. If you were a fan of the classic and have a well-loved, slightly worn-out copy sitting on your shelf, it might be time to snag this refreshed edition and bring Cyclades back to the table in all its glory.

 How do we break out of self-sabotage? The mind is biologically programmed to be negative. Lisa continues the conversation today with renunciate monk and author Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati. Sadhvi has lived on the banks of the sacred Ganges River in Rishikesh, India, for the past 30 years. Originally from Los Angeles, and a graduate of Stanford University, she holds a Ph.D. in psychology. Sadhvi explains how we are the offspring of people who know they need to survive. Our ancestors needed to assume the worst, in order to survive. We have evolved this way. And, we know that we can now change. We can reprogram our minds. Sadhvi suggests using a mantra. It doesn't have to be in Sanskrit. It's anything that can bring you into the present moment and out of negativity. We can reason with our minds, and sometimes we need to face the negativity, but more often we can delete and end the cycle of negativity. “OM” is a very common mantra. It's very powerful. Chanting also helps. This stops the mind. She gives examples of many different mantras and prayers. The sounds help the brain go into a state of coherence. She also talks about attending the Maha Kumbh Mela where more than 670 million people came to the Ganges river recently to attend the largest gathering in the history of the world. The Maha Kumbh Mela means the great festival of the nectar of immortality. It took place on the confluence of the banks of 3 great rivers in India.  There was no conflict, no violence; it was just people coming together in love and peace. She further discusses the astrology of the moment, especially the full moons. Vedic astrology predicts that this particular planetary alignment happens only once every 144 years. With hundreds of millions of people attending the gathering, this shows that people are suffering and looking for answers. People are angry. People are frustrated. People are searching for answers. This was a way to break out of constraints and experience freedom. When asked about anger, she expressed that there are some reasons to be angry including poverty, hunger, loss of human rights, and so much more. Yet, when we are angry, we are called to be agents of change, but first we must find peace within ourselves so we can then help others. She offers breathing exercises with specific energy centers and anchoring. Whether it's other people's actions, or even the weather, we shouldn't have expectations that things will be different. We cannot control others. We must bring light to the darkness, but not from a place of anger. She notes Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, Jr, and Gandhi and how they were angry but came from a place of peace to make change.   Sadhvi is a bestselling author, a world-renowned speaker, a recipient of President Biden's Award for a Lifetime of Service, and she serves on the United Nations Advisory Council on religion. She talks further about her new book “Come Home to Yourself” and discusses how forgiveness is the key to help us reach deeper spiritual truths. It's an invitation to come home to freedom. This is Part 2 of the interview. Info: www.sadhviji.org  

The sacred isn't far away, or locked away in a temple, a ritual, or some otherworldly realm. The sacred is the invisible thread running through the entire tapestry of life—right here, right now. In this deeply reflective episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore the Vedic concept of otam-protam—the warp and weft of reality—revealing how divinity is interwoven through every moment, every element, every being. From the descent of the sacred Ganges to the subtle presence of God in all things, this episode invites you to shift your lens and recognize the divine fabric behind the visible world. Also featured is a moving tribute to Al Barile of SSD—a hardcore punk pioneer whose unexpected connection to the Bhāgavatam is a reminder that even the toughest exteriors can carry a sincere spiritual search within. Key Highlights: •⁠  ⁠What “warp and weft” teaches us about the nature of reality •⁠  ⁠C.S. Lewis on the God who walks everywhere incognito •⁠  ⁠Why seeing God in everything is the highest yoga •⁠  ⁠How the Ganga purifies not just bodies, but the mind and heart •⁠  ⁠Al Barile's surprising connection to bhakti and the search for truth Whether you're walking through a city street, sitting in nature, or standing in a mosh pit—the thread of the sacred is already there. Learn to see it.

I went from financial chaos and burnout to freedom, creativity, and consistent 5-figure launches when I aligned my business with my cosmic blueprint!

More than sacred—this is about cosmic justice, karmic cleansing, and the mysterious flow of divine grace. In this provocative conclusion to our two-part deep dive, Raghunath and Kaustubha unpack why the Ganges is revered as the purifier of sins and how its sanctity is upheld—not just by myth or ritual, but through the living presence of Krishna and His devotees. What makes a river more than water? How does mercy override karma? And how can we become a river of grace ourselves? Key Highlights: •⁠  ⁠The Ganges as a portal of divine compassion—from Vaikuntha to Earth. •⁠  ⁠How saintly souls become walking places of pilgrimage. •⁠  ⁠Grace vs. karma: why fairness isn't the highest principle in the universe. •⁠  ⁠The mystical relationship between Krishna's feet, the holy river, and the pure-hearted. •⁠  ⁠Why Bhagiratha's mission wasn't just personal—it was a multi-generational act of love. Whether you've dipped in her waters or just dreamed of the Himalayas, this episode will change the way you see rivers, saints, and the subtle forces that shape our destiny.

Can water actually wash away your karma? For thousands of years, pilgrims have journeyed to the Ganges River with unwavering faith that her sacred waters can liberate the soul. But where does that power come from? And why is it believed that even the most sinful acts can be purified through a simple bath in her current? In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore the profound story of King Bhagirath and the descent of the Ganga, as told in the pages of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. Together, they unpack ancient insights into how grace flows through sacred elements, and how divine consciousness transforms even the physical elements of this world. Key Highlights: • Why Bhagirath's mission to bring down the Ganges spanned generations • The deep Vedic symbolism of “lotus feet” and approaching the divine from the ground up • Ganga's own doubts—can she handle the sins of the world? • What makes something sacred in bhakti: form, faith, or transcendental connection? Get ready to rethink what it means to be purified, and how spiritual energy can travel through water, sound, and intention to change the destiny of a soul.

You're not locked into karma—you're being trained by it. In this illuminating Q&A episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha reveal how the law of karma is less about punishment and more about cosmic sensitivity training. But the deeper question is: Do you want to stay under karma's rule, or reconnect with the root of all existence?
