In this episode of Life Stories, Shara sits down with Patti Shales Lefkos, an adventurous writer, humanitarian, and former educator who proves it's never too late to follow your calling. After retiring from a 37-year career in education, Patti returned to school at 60 to study journalism and eventually began writing books about her travels and humanitarian work. Her love for Nepal led her to trek thousands of kilometers through the Himalayas and start a nonprofit helping communities rebuild after the devastating 2015 Nepal Earthquake. Through fundraising, storytelling, and partnerships with local organizations, Patti has helped build schools, rebuild homes, and support education for children in remote villages. Patti also shares stories from her incredible 800-kilometer trek on the Great Himalaya Trail at age 77, what she has learned about resilience and privilege, and why she believes anyone can make a difference by simply taking one step at a time.

His plan is not just to summit the peak of Nanda Kot, but to find proof of plutonium-powered surveillance devices - rumoured to have been planted in the mountains by the CIA some 40 years earlier.

This week, we're leafing through the pages of The Plant Review to explore a simple question: what can we learn from the wild? American plantsman Daniel J. Hinkley reflects on a lifetime of exploration that has taken him to some of the wildest places on Earth in search of plants. Yet in his article he turns his attention to a small, unassuming genus growing close to home in Washington State: Coptis. Next, David Pearce, curator of Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens, transports us to the cloud-shrouded mountains of Madeira to meet a striking architectural plant found nowhere else in the wild, and one that he's been successfully cultivating on the Dorset coast. And finally, Sacchi Parasrampuria and James Miller take us to Poon Hill in Nepal, reflecting on a recent plant observation trip and the lessons they brought back from the Himalayas.

What happens when ambition meets awakening?In this episode, we dive deep into Yevade Subramanyam?, starring Nani and Vijay Deverakonda — a powerful coming-of-age journey that questions the true meaning of success.Subramanyam (Subbu) is a sharp, materialistic IIM graduate determined to conquer the corporate world at any cost. Alongside his equally ruthless boss Pasupathi, he schemes to acquire a rival company — even manipulating people to get there. Success seems inevitable… until life interrupts his carefully structured plan.Enter Rishi — Subbu's carefree childhood friend who believes life is about experiences, not earnings. A spontaneous trip to the mystical Doodh Kasi in the Himalayas becomes the turning point that reshapes Subbu's understanding of ambition, friendship, love, and fulfillment.Through loss, guilt, travel, and self-discovery, Subbu learns a timeless truth — one that even leaders like Abraham Lincoln embodied: true greatness lies not in wealth or power, but in character and purpose.

Grace Under Fire – Free Live Series https://subscribepage.io/GraceUnderFire   It’s Time To Cross the Threshold Meet Your Power Differently and Ride the Fire Horse Does it feel like life is pushing you harder than usual? Are you being pulled in a thousand directions by the people you care about? Are you questioning who you are and where you’re going? The way you’ve been living is not sustainable. You are not burned out because you're weak. You're tired because you're carrying intensity that your old tools were never designed to hold. More is being asked of us than ever before. More responsibility. More emotional labor. More truth. More fire. And now, the temperature is rising even higher with the Fire Horse entering on February 17, 2026. Every 60 years, the Fire Horse brings transformative yang energy that either purifies or overwhelms. The last Fire Horse was 1966 – a year that brought massive cultural shifts, breakthroughs in consciousness, and radical change. Astrologically, this means that the pressure is building and it’s likely to get more intense in 2026 than it already has been. You don’t have to know a lot about astrology to see for yourself that the old strategies of numbing, pushing, or self-improvement will not work anymore to get you through this. You’re being invited to cross a threshold that will change how you meet life’s challenges.

In this episode of the Special Culinary Series, I'm joined by Chef Neha Mishra - the visionary behind Kinoya in Dubai and the woman many first knew as the “Ramen Girl” hosting intimate supper clubs before building one of the city's most celebrated restaurants. On this episode, Neha takes us across continents through flavor, philosophy and deeply personal food memories - from Tokyo's ramen counters to the Himalayas at 16,000 feet. Destination Highlights & Culinary Insights: 1. Japan - The art of perfection.   Japan, for Neha, represents devotion - to craft, to ingredients and to doing one thing exceptionally well. • Ramen culture and why simplicity equals mastery. • How to explore Japan on a budget - eating where locals eat. • Traditional Japanese breakfasts and bento spreads. • Public transport in Japan makes exploration seamless. • “Memory Lane” (Omoide Yokocho-style alleyways) for affordable eats.           https://en.shinjuku-omoide.com/ 2. India – Where food is a ‘love language'. Neha talks about the diversity of India and how every region there is its own eco system with distinct culinary identities. A trip to India is a reminder that food isn't about complexity, it's about connection. • The architecture and soul of South Bombay(South Mumbai). • South Indian cuisine as one of the most underrated global food cultures. • A transformative trip to Spiti Valley near Ladakh and mindful meals at 16,000 feet in the Himalayas. • Single-ingredient cooking. 3. Italy – Slow living and Sacred tables. • Produce-driven cooking: olives, olive oil, tomatoes. • Landscape and longevity and how environment shapes cuisine. 4. Georgia – Unexpected beauty. Beyond the food, it is the landscape and culture that linger. This is a destination where hospitality and history intertwine and is definitely a place that deserves far more global attention than it receives. 5. Vietnam, Thailand and Southeast Asia - The street food masters. Southeast Asia is where street food becomes storytelling. 6. Brazil – Best street food. • Sunday markets and neighborhood food culture. • Street discoveries that rival fine dining. 7. Mexico – Culinary immersion.

Salima Saxton on cancer, honesty, estrangement, and creative work in real life. Salima is Ben's longtime friend, and they talk about her cancer diagnosis and what she calls an unexpected new “year of undoing”, a return to herself rather than a neat reinvention story.“Be the sky, not the weather. The weather passes through.”They discuss why the language of “brave” can feel wrong, why “What can I do?” often misses the mark, and what Salima means by being a “bad patient”.The conversation turns to Salima's Substack essay “Builder Dad” on estrangement and what outsiders routinely misunderstand.“‘Blood is thicker than water' is not advice I believe in.” Salima also shares the hardest things to write in memoir: telling the whole truth, including the parts that do not flatter you.The chat then touches on anti-heroine storytelling, friendship breakups, social media's double edge, and what creative work looks like without romantic routines: write where you can, start small, “plod”, find mentors, and build community.“There's never a perfect moment. Start with something tiny and plod.”A lighter finish includes an overrated/underrated game (champagne, dressing up, height, hustle culture, social media, coconut oil), Salima's plan to audition again, and why dark humour matters when things get rough.“A sense of humour is absolutely vital. You either laugh or you crack.” Transcript and video: https://www.thendobetter.com/arts/2026/2/24/salima-saxton-cancer-bad-patient-honesty-estrangement-and-writing-without-waiting Contents:00:00 30-year friendship,  Himalayas, coconut oil01:23 Cancer diagnosis and a new “year of undoing”03:41 Returning to the 18-year-old self05:07 Illness clarifies relationships, energy is finite07:29 Why “brave” and “What can I do?” can land badly09:02 “Bad patient”: performing “good” on an overstretched NHS ward13:05 Honest female voices, dissonance, anti-heroine truth15:28 “Builder Dad”, estrangement, and searching for father figures17:57 What people get wrong about estrangement and friendship breakups21:29 Hypervigilance and the hidden inner life23:31 The hardest memoir scene: dad's death and anger at mum26:15 Writing about mum: respect, friction, truth29:44 Childhood contradictions: hippie roots, no heating, love of glamour30:37 No perfect routine: writing around kids, work, real life33:09 Ditch the artist romance: money, time, and the true cost35:00 Tiny wins: one sentence still counts36:49 Bed writing, socks, and self-trickery38:06 Overrated/underrated game41:31 Social media love/hate and quiet communities43:59 2026 as the “year of saying yes”, auditions, dark humour46:37 Advice to creatives: start small, “plod”, mentors, community50:15 Long friendships and gratitude

What if your spiritual awakening was so powerful, you thought you were being mind controlled? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati — global spiritual leader and bestselling author of Come Home to Yourself and Hollywood to the Himalayas — reveals the raw, unfiltered truth about the awakening that shattered her old identity and opened her to a universal realization: everything is connected through unconditional love. But it didn't start peacefully. At first, she thought she was losing her mind. From a science-trained skeptic to a spiritual teacher living in the Himalayas, Sadhviji shares what divinity actually feels like in the body, what happens when your attachment to your identity explodes, and why her awakening was so radical it led to the end of her marriage. Sadhviji breaks down: - Her journey through disordered eating, trauma, abandonment, and codependency before awakening - Why healing childhood wounds is essential so adult triggers stop running your life - Physical process of releasing anger, pain, and stored trauma from the body - What's really holding most of us back from spiritual experiences - How she resists physical temptations and stays grounded in spiritual discipline - Freedom that comes from “Breaking Free of the Self” - How to integrate smaller spiritual experiences (even if you haven't had a lightning-bolt awakening) - Power of holy and sacred places for us as energetic beings - How divine intelligence in nature reveals the “unexplainable” - Why coming into everything with an open heart changes your entire reality With her background in science, Sadhviji also shares her fascinating perspective on watching quantum physics slowly catch up in attempting to explain mystical truths sages have known for millennia, and what it will actually take to spark a global spiritual awakening (hint: it's not as impossible as we think) This isn't just a spiritual story. It's a blueprint for healing, awakening, and living in radical love. If you've ever questioned reality, longed for deeper truth, struggled with trauma, or wondered whether awakening is real, this conversation may change everything.

Lithium has doubled in three months. Copper is printing record highs. Silver went vertical—then collapsed. The move was fast. The reversals were faster. Volatility isn't elevated. It's systemic.  But this isn't just another commodity cycle. These metals sit at the core of the energy transition. They're embedded in batteries, EVs, transmission lines, datacenters, wind turbines, and solar modules. When they move, the entire transition complex moves with them.  So, what are we really looking at? Is this a positioning squeeze in thin markets? Or the early tremors of a structural repricing?  The divide is clear. At The Carlyle Group, Jeff Currie argues we're only “on the foothills of the Himalayas” — the early stage of a structural supercycle driven by electrification, grid build-out, and constrained supply. Ed Morse pushes back. High prices cure high prices. Capital flows. Supply responds. Markets rebalance. Cycles end the way they always have. Two very different frameworks. One structural. One cyclical.  To cut through the noise, Laurent and Gerard sit down with Matt Fernley, Managing Director at Battery Materials Review and Partner at RK Equity. They dissect what's actually driving these rallies — inventory tightness, permitting bottlenecks, capital discipline, geopolitics, demand elasticity.  They confront the supply question head-on: Can new production realistically catch up — on time, on budget, and at scale? And they explore the technologies that could reshape the curve — from the re-emergence of direct lithium extraction (DLE) to the accelerating development of sodium-ion batteries.  This isn't just about price volatility. It's about whether the energy transition is entering a new cost regime. Because if these inputs are structurally repricing, everything downstream changes. And if they aren't — the unwind could be just as violent.----Link to the report by the Volta Foundationhttps://volta.foundation/battery-report-2025/

Created in collaboration with Kinnauri filmmaker Himanshu Negi Regesoi, this piece is a meeting of old and new, bringing a sonic archive to life from the Western Himalayas. From the Pitt Rivers Museum's sound collection, a field recording of women singing in the early 1980s (recorded in Kinnaur, Himachal Pradesh, India by anthropologist Nicholas Allen) now becomes a portal for a young Indigenous filmmaker to reflect on his homeland/heritage. Through his voice a living thread emerges to celebrate a rich and dynamic culture - both ancient and modern.The original field recording inspired various textures and loops created to take the listener on a journey from the dusty archives of a museum in Oxford to the vast Himalayas, evoking landscape and opening space for exploring how we deal with the past in the present - to inspire the future. The piece includes the following text from the Royal Geographical Society online exhibition titled “Reimagining the Himalaya through the lens of diasporic indigeneity”: “Archives are not just repositories of memory and imagination, they are complex and contested sites of representation deeply shaped by histories of colonial encounters. Whose memories do we elevate, and whose do we obscure? Whose perspectives do we validate to frame our understanding of the world and whose do we suppress? The key to these questions lies in the power to represent ‘truth'. Archives, therefore, are sites of power - the power to explain the world through dominant narratives.” https://www.rgs.org/our-collections/stories-from-our-collections/online-exhibitions/reimagining-the-himalaya-through-the-lens-of-diasporic-indigeneityFootsteps on Wooden Floor.aif by ftpalad -- https://freesound.org/s/119914/ -- License: Creative Commons 0; heavy door open close outside to inside.wav by iggy1345 -- https://freesound.org/s/673236/ -- License: Creative Commons 0; Attic door opening and closing 2 by giddster -- https://freesound.org/s/805637/ -- License: Creative Commons 0With thanks to Himanshu Negi Regesoi, and to Professor Alan Macfarlane for permission to use an excerpt of his 2001 interview with Nicholas Allen.

"Fiat Lux". From the living breath of Genesis to the Kikuyu's sacred seed, from the Greek cosmic egg to the Sulawesi tale of the earth-shaking boar scratching its itch — across countless traditions, humankind has always sought to explain the origins of the cosmos. Perhaps fewer people are aware that humanity has also tried to explain the origins of technological life, with ‘technology' here meaning the discovery of activities that enabled progress: agriculture, the construction of more complex structures, brewing, and the domestication of animals. The myths, or stories, that describe how humankind, often with the help of divine or supernatural beings, came to acquire such knowledge are known as "civilisation myths".Western scholars (ethnographers, anthropologists, linguists, and archaeologists alike) were often fascinated by the collection of such stories from remote or so-called ‘exotic' places. These narratives were variously published in richly illustrated children's books or in dense and rather austere academic volumes. Among those who ventured into this field was Nicholas J. Allen, who explored both physical and conceptual terrains that were ‘new' only to Western audiences - for those who lived there, they were part of everyday life and cultural heritage.During his fieldwork in the Solukhumbu District (Nepali: सोलुखुम्बु जिल्ला [solukʰumbu]; Sherpa: ཤར་ཁུམ་བུ་རྫོང་།; Wylie: shar khum bu dzong), Allen studied the Rai, a division of the Kiranti peoples inhabiting the middle hills of eastern Nepal, and in particular the Thulung, one of more than a dozen Rai subtribes, each with its own distinct language. His attention was drawn to the peculiarities of the Thulung, which set them apart from other Rai groups. Through comparative linguistic andmythological analysis, Allen hypothesised that, although the Thulung had been influenced by Hindu immigrants, they showed virtually no trace of Tibetan or Buddhist influence and were hence the result of very ancient cultural heritage pre- dating Buddhism in Nepal. Yet, this observation was only the starting point of our own exploration, not its goal.In our work, we turned to the Jaw-Khliw cycle, a civilisation myth that culminates in a wedding. We sought to express this story through sound, following Khakcilik on his journey as he learns to build a house, prepare a swidden, and brew beer thanks to a woman called Wayelungma. His path is accompanied by the sounds of animals known to inhabit elevations between 1,400 and 2,000 m near Mukli, where the original soundscape was recorded in 1970. These include the dark-sided flycatcher, ultramarine flycatcher, Nepal fulvetta, and wild boar (the latter also mentioned in another of Allen's myths).The soundscape does not mirror the narrative point by point; instead, it employs evocative sounds to express key moments in the story, such as the Nepali gong introducing the three siblings, or the shimmering textures that evoke the magic of Wayelungma. We did not introduce one sad moment, as our intention was not to recount loss, but to dwell on the wonder of knowledge and of learning, with the aim of nourishing soul and intellect. The journey of Khakcilik and Wayelungma culminates in a marriage, for which Nicholas's 1970 recording was used. The names and lives of those who married and celebrated their love and were recorded by Nicholas may now be lost to history, but, in a romantic (and perhaps slightly naïve) gesture, we wished to honour love as one of the possible driving forces of civilisation itself — a celebration of the journey of Khakcilik and Wayelungma. Jaw and Khliw, the greater and lesser hornbill, try to kill their younger brother Khakcilik. Destroying an effigy of him, they fly off. After a quarrel the younger is eaten by an owl, then resuscitated. Meanwhile, Khakcilik, who lives by fishing, repeatedly catches a stone which he eventually deposits in his house. The stone, really a woman called Wayelungma or Nagimo, sweeps and cooks for him while he is out until one day, following advice, he hides behind a winnowing fan and captures her as his wife. Wayelungma instructs him how to build a house but in the process their first child is crushed under the central pillar. Also under her instruction and with her help he prepares a swidden, brews beer from its grain and invites, and when this fails, entices, his sisters to return home for the wedding. One comes from the north, one from the south and they contribute copper vessels as wedding gifts.Reference: TIBET AND THE THULUNG RAI: TOWARDS A COMPARATIVE MYTHOLOGY OF THE BODIC SPEAKERS Nicholas J.

Grace Under Fire – Free Live Series https://subscribepage.io/GraceUnderFire   It’s Time To Cross the Threshold Meet Your Power Differently and Ride the Fire Horse Does it feel like life is pushing you harder than usual? Are you being pulled in a thousand directions by the people you care about? Are you questioning who you are and where you’re going? The way you’ve been living is not sustainable. You are not burned out because you're weak. You're tired because you're carrying intensity that your old tools were never designed to hold. More is being asked of us than ever before. More responsibility. More emotional labor. More truth. More fire. And now, the temperature is rising even higher with the Fire Horse entering on February 17, 2026. Every 60 years, the Fire Horse brings transformative yang energy that either purifies or overwhelms. The last Fire Horse was 1966 – a year that brought massive cultural shifts, breakthroughs in consciousness, and radical change. Astrologically, this means that the pressure is building and it’s likely to get more intense in 2026 than it already has been. You don’t have to know a lot about astrology to see for yourself that the old strategies of numbing, pushing, or self-improvement will not work anymore to get you through this. You’re being invited to cross a threshold that will change how you meet life’s challenges.

What if success isn't about pushing harder but allowing yourself to be pulled toward your purpose? In this episode, Seth Streeter shares how he helps people navigate major life transitions and discover their inspired life purpose as co-founder of Mission Wealth, a wealth management firm he started 25 years ago that now manages $14 billion in assets for 4,600 families across 34 US locations. Seth has been a financial advisor for 34 years, specializing in guiding clients through major life events while helping them live more fulfilling lives through assessments across 12 dimensions of wealth. After going through divorce and the financial crisis, Seth realized he was achieving traditional success but wasn't fulfilled, leading him to spend an introspective year attending retreats, meditating, and traveling to India. In the last eight years, Seth has led purpose-driven retreats for over 2,000 people, including nine-day retreats in Bhutan where leaders trek in the Himalayas and stay with monks. Seth spoke at Davos with Deepak Chopra on conscious leadership and leads the purpose community for YPO. Seth reveals the relationship that transformed his life: Joe Bosco, owner of an Italian restaurant in Fort Collins, Colorado where Seth worked as a dishwasher through high school. When Seth was looking at colleges and his parents wanted him to attend Colorado State, Joe Bosco said "you should check out Santa Barbara, California" because he went there for horse shows. Seth had never heard of Santa Barbara but applied to UCSB because of Joe Bosco and spent 27 years there, founding Mission Wealth, having his children, serving on 10 nonprofit boards, starting sustainable future.org, and doing a TED Talk, all because Joe Bosco suggested he check out UC Santa Barbara. Seth also credits Chip Conley, founder of MEA, as a mentor who showed him how to move from his head to his heart.   [00:03:40] Led Two Nine-Day Purpose Retreats in Bhutan In Asia for most of the trip Had 25 leaders in each group trekking in Himalayas Stayed overnight at monasteries, lived with monks Contemplated purpose individually, within companies, within world at large [00:04:40] Mission Wealth: 25 Years and $14 Billion Co-founded Mission Wealth 25 years ago Independent registered investment advisory firm 34 locations across US, manages just under $14 billion in assets About 4,600 families, team of 200 advisors and professionals [00:05:20] Started Leading Retreats Eight Years Ago In last eight years started leading retreats and coaching For different companies, leaders, different groups of people Takes paid time off to do it, spends vacations leading retreats About 2,000 people have gone through in-person programs [00:06:00] The 13 Inches From Head to Heart Great quote: "furthest distance many travel in lifetime are 13 inches from head to heart" As financial guy, had heart in what he did, loved helping people solve problems This work feels more intimate, more meaningful Really helping people give themselves permission to be best version of who they want to be [00:08:00] Started in Financial Services Right Out of College Right out of college, needed a job Was in student government at UC Santa Barbara, thought he'd be entrepreneur Dad was in government, mom was teacher, brother was police officer Family said "you need a job with benefits, security, and paycheck" [00:09:00] Went Through His Own Tough Journey Went through divorce, financial crisis, bumps in life Realized success script needed to be rewritten Was working hard but wasn't fulfilled, wasn't content Achieving success in traditional way materially but didn't feel fulfilled [00:09:20] The Introspective Year That Changed Everything Decided to do whole introspective year Went to retreats, read self-help books, listened to podcasts Got into meditation, went to India, did all these "woo" things That year opened up whole new framework for living [00:10:20] Push Energy vs Pull Energy As entrepreneur, had lot of push energy: building vision, growing team, charging hill Used that in Ironman, marathons, running nonprofits After personal reflection, started to adopt pull energy approach More of allowance, trusting doors close and open for reason [00:11:20] Speaking at Davos With Deepak Chopra Was asked to speak at panel in Malibu with five people Woman from Finland asked if he'd been to Davos, offered to get him in Three months before event, confirmed: Thursday with Deepak Chopra on Conscious Leadership in Era of AI Couldn't have pushed way into that opportunity, was being open and available [00:14:40] 12 Dimensions of Wealth Talk about wealth not just in financial sense but across 12 dimensions Impact families are having, quality of relationships, physical health, intellectual growth Seeing families grow true wealth feels very rewarding Lead purpose community for all of YPO [00:15:00] The Success Script and Grind Mentality Lot of people followed success script, did what they were taught Worked hard in school, career, moved through ranks or started company Rinsed and repeated grind mentality to get ahead Now 40, 50, or 60 saying "is this all there is?"

But I started to adopt a pull energy approach, more of an allowance, trusting that when a door closes it closes for a reason, when it opens for a reason. I was being pulled to where I was supposed to be." - Seth Streeter CONNECT WITH SETH STREETER

Caleb Powell summited Aconcagua, one of the Seven Summits and the highest peak outside the Himalayas, but the real breakthrough happened long before he reached the top. He joins Alex Perry to talk about what weeks on a mountain with no distractions, no routine, and no familiar identity forced him to confront. They get honest about the danger of building your self-worth on external achievement, the freedom that comes from faith-based identity, and what it looks like to come home from an experience like this and actually try to live differently. About Our Featured Charity: This season, Alex Perry On Fire is making a monetary contribution to each guest's charity of choice. Caleb Powell's charity is Men of Nehemiah. The Men of Nehemiah is a faith-based organization dedicated to restoring the lives of men impacted by drug and alcohol addiction.

In this part, Swamiji narrates the events after Shree Krishna's departure from the world. Arjun returned from Dwarka with sorrow, describing how Krishna arranged for the Yadavas' destruction and then concluded His earthly leelas. Dwarka itself was submerged into the ocean. On hearing this, Queen Kunti departed in devotion, and Yudhishthir renounced his throne, installing Parikshit as king before retiring with the Pandavas to the Himalayas.  Swamiji explains how King Parikshit ruled righteously, ensuring prosperity and Dharma. During his inspection of the kingdom, he encountered a cow (symbolizing Mother Earth) crying and a bull (symbolizing Dharma) standing on one leg. Their dialogue revealed the decline of righteousness and the rise of sin in Kali Yuga.  Parikshit then confronted a dark figure attacking the bull — Kali personified. When challenged, Kali admitted he had to reside on Earth by divine decree. Parikshit allowed him shelter only in four places: gambling, intoxication, animal slaughter, and illicit relations. Later, as a concession, he permitted Kali to reside in gold, which became the subtle entry point for greed, corruption, and hypocrisy.  Swamiji emphasizes that this incident shows how Dharma weakens in Kali Yuga, and how even a righteous king like Parikshit was eventually influenced by Kali through the golden crown, leading to the curse of death within seven days.  This part highlights that Kali Yuga resides wherever unrighteousness, greed, and duplicity prevail. Yet, the Srimad Bhagavatam shines as the guiding light, protecting Dharma and devotion in this age of darkness.  About Swami Mukundananda:    Swami Mukundananda is a renowned spiritual leader, Vedic scholar, Bhakti saint, best‑selling author, and an international authority on the subject of mind management. He is the founder of the unique yogic system called JKYog. Swamiji holds distinguished degrees in Engineering and Management from IIT and IIM. Having taken the renounced order of life (sanyas), he is the senior disciple of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj, and has been sharing Vedic wisdom across the globe for decades.

This episode with Kerri Hummingbird is filled with timeless shamanic insight. Kerri shares how our greatest traumas and challenges are actually medicine for awakening, helping us expand our consciousness and reconnect with the Earth's intelligence. We explore the healing roles of animal and plant consciousness, the wisdom of the Andes and Himalayas, and how we can integrate these teachings into modern life.

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with visionary thought leader Raj Sisodia to discuss his provocative and deeply personal new book, "Healing Leaders: 7 Steps to Recovery of Self." Shifting away from traditional business tactics, Sisodia reveals a startling truth: most corporate suffering is "unintentional," stemming from leaders who have yet to heal their own internal wounds. Drawing from his transformative experiences with indigenous shamans in the Amazon and silent retreats in the Himalayas, Sisodia explains how a leader's "cracked open" heart is actually the key to a thriving organization. This conversation serves as a wake-up call for anyone at the top who feels the weight of stress and burnout, offering a roadmap to trade ego-driven tyranny for a leadership style rooted in love and wholeness.

First broadcast in 2024. Graihagh Jackson finds out about the little know pollutant making us sick and driving the climate crisis. It commonly comes from burning coal, diesel or wood and has a habit of getting stuck in people's lungs as well as causing glaciers to melt. In Nepal, home to some of the world's most beautiful glaciers, we meet journalist Tulsi Rauniyar, who tells us all about the impact black carbon is having on women and children. She meets Tenzing Chogyal Sherpa, a glacier expert who maps the ice losses in the Himalayas. Zerin Osho from the Institute for Governance & Sustainable Development helps us understand why black carbon is so important - but often forgotten - in the fight against climate change, and how we can change that.

Grace Under Fire – Free Live Series https://subscribepage.io/GraceUnderFire   It’s Time To Cross the Threshold Meet Your Power Differently and Ride the Fire Horse Does it feel like life is pushing you harder than usual? Are you being pulled in a thousand directions by the people you care about? Are you questioning who you are and where you’re going? The way you’ve been living is not sustainable. You are not burned out because you're weak. You're tired because you're carrying intensity that your old tools were never designed to hold. More is being asked of us than ever before. More responsibility. More emotional labor. More truth. More fire. And now, the temperature is rising even higher with the Fire Horse entering on February 17, 2026. Every 60 years, the Fire Horse brings transformative yang energy that either purifies or overwhelms. The last Fire Horse was 1966 – a year that brought massive cultural shifts, breakthroughs in consciousness, and radical change. Astrologically, this means that the pressure is building and it’s likely to get more intense in 2026 than it already has been. You don’t have to know a lot about astrology to see for yourself that the old strategies of numbing, pushing, or self-improvement will not work anymore to get you through this. You’re being invited to cross a threshold that will change how you meet life’s challenges.

In this episode, I take you along for one unforgettable day in Bhutan that perfectly captures the country's culture, spirituality, and everyday life.The day begins dressed in a traditional gho before heading high into the Himalayas for the Druk Wangyel Festival at Dochula Pass. With clear skies, snow-capped peaks in the background, and vibrant performances by the Royal Bhutan Army, this festival is one of Bhutan's most visually striking and patriotic celebrations.After the festival, we descend into the Punakha Valley, stopping for lunch before setting off on a walk through authentic Bhutanese countryside. This walk takes us through Sopsokha Village and Teopronghu Village, passing rice paddies, prayer flags, family homes, and locals going about their daily lives — offering a real glimpse into rural Bhutan away from the usual tourist trail.Check out my previous Bhutan episodesEpisode 1 Interview with Ugyen Rinzin - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/winging-it-podcast/id1559489384?i=1000743770563Episode 2 - IMMERSIVE Hiking to Tiger's Nest Monastery - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/winging-it-podcast/id1559489384?i=1000744754502Episode 3 - Days 1-3 solo episode - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/winging-it-podcast/id1559489384?i=1000745691316Episode 4 - Interview with a female monk - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/winging-it-podcast/id1559489384?i=1000747763604

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 #
