Podcasts about Indra

Kṛṣṇa has already an intimate relationship with all living beings, because he's feeding them. Nityo nityānām cetanaś cetanānām eko bahūnām yo vidadhāti kāmān—He feeds everybody, and there's not one person you can find anywhere that doesn't have food available to him or her, because Krishna is all-powerful, and he's feeding every living being. But he wants more than that; not just this "supply and demand" because I'm hungry. He wants love, and he wants to extract the love that's dormant within the heart of every living being. Therefore, he sets up this elaborate ruse that he performs to demote Indra. That's just another reason that he performs the pastime. Indra became proud, and that's the death knell to bhakti. Pride comes in various forms, and one of them is entitlement. In fact, Yamunā Devī, one of the famous disciples of Śrīla Prabhupāda, preached heavily in her final days that we should beware of entitlement. That is, I think, because of my stature (whatever I may think that is), there are various ways we can get it into our head that we deserve more than others. Of course, there's etiquette, and we observe that; we're not communists. But if I have in my head that I deserve something, then it's very hard for me to appreciate anything. And this entitlement that pollutes the mind and consciousness had gotten into the mind and consciousness of Indra, and he thought, "I deserve that offering of the cowherd men." And if you've ever thought you deserve something and then you didn't get it, doesn't it cause anguish? ------------------------------------------------------------ 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #govardhanpuja #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

Repasamos las claves del cierre de la jornada con vistazo a Sacyr, Indra, Acciona Energía, Telefónica e eDreams, con Carlos Ladero, director de cliente institucional en ActivoTrade.

Las bolsas mundiales caen el miércoles a medida que se acerca la hora de la verdad para una reunión dividida de la Reserva Federal y unos resultados de empresas, los de Oracle y Broadcom, que podrían poner a prueba las altísimas valoraciones de la IA. Quieren también protagonismo la repentina caída del yen japonés y el vertiginoso ascenso de los precios de la plata. El rendimiento del bono a 10 años estadounidense vuelve al 4,20%. Ya ha subido18 puntos básicos desde principios de diciembre, lo que supone su mayor subida mensual desde mayo. El dólar se ve apoyado por ello. Lo analizamos todo con Pedro del Pozo, de Mutualidad. En Bolsa española, y dentro del Ibex35, lideran las subidas ACS, Rovi y Amadeus. Los peores son Sacyr, tras venta de acciones del fundador de Cirsa, Indra y Mapfre. Luego, Oriol Ramírez-Monsonis, de WTW, nos cuenta por qué la industria de la gestión de patrimonios duda con los mercados privados

In this episode, I talk to Indra Bartona, who is a Hollywood Film-maker/Producer, actress, show host, Meditation Teacher, Professional Speaker, Author, and Founder of The Positivity Vibe Tribe.

Los futuros de los índices estadounidenses suben ligeramente el lunes. Lo hacen ante la expectativa de que la Reserva Federal lleve a cabo esa esperada bajada de tipos esta semana. Los datos de la semana pasada mostraron que el gasto de los consumidores aumentó moderadamente, lo que da a los inversores una mayor confianza en que la Fed se centrará el miércoles en bajar tipos, lo que ayudaría a apuntalar el mercado laboral. Hasta ahora, la inflación se ha mostrado inflexible, lo que hace que la mayoría de los responsables políticos se muestren cautelosos a la hora de reducir tasas. Precisamente, el temor a que la inflación vuelva a repuntar hace que los inversores apuesten por subidas de los tipos de interés por parte de los bancos centrales de Japón, Canadá y Australia para finales de 2026. Las valoraciones de las empresas tecnológicas también estarán en el punto de mira esta semana, ya que se espera que la empresa de chips Broadcom y Oracle presenten sus resultados trimestrales. Analizamos todo con José Basagoiti, de Trading Pro. En Bolsa española, y dentro del Ibex35, lideran las subidas Indra, Sacyr y ACS. Al frente de los recortes están Puig, Cellnex e Inditex.

Repaso del día a los protagonistas Indra, Fluidra, Rovi, Telefónica, Logista y Naturgy. Con Luis Benguerel, analista independiente.

Las acciones mundiales suben el viernes, encaminándose a una segunda semana de ganancias. Están en verde a la espera de interpretar una referencia de inflación, el deflactor PCE, que se espera no impida a la Reserva Federal recortar los tipos de interés la próxima semana. Eso sobre el dólar e impulsa al oro. En Bolsas europeas destaca sector minero, espoleado por máximos históricos en precios del cobre. Esta hora hacemos balance de la semana y analizamos mercado con Antonio Castelo, de Ibroker. Warner Bros Discovery sube, ya que Netflix comprará sus estudios de televisión y cine y su unidad de streaming. Southwest Airlines cae tras recortar su previsión de beneficios por el cierre del Gobierno. JPM ve un 2026 difícil para las papeleras. En Bolsa española, y dentro del Ibex35, lideran las subidas Indra, Fluidra y Puig. Los que más caen son Logista, Naturgy y Caixabank.

El analista de Apta Negocios revisa los títulos de Inditex, Cellnex, Hugo Boss, Indra, Bayer y ASML, entre otros

Con Manuel Pinto, de XTB.

Análisis con Renta 4 Banco, en el que Iván San Félix nos comenta el sentimiento de mercado. "Hay algunos factores clave que están apoyando bastante como son los resultados y las perspectivas empresariales tanto en Europa como en Estados Unidos... el entorno de tipos, en Estados Unidos está previsto que sigan bajando en las próximas reuniones y la inflación está demostrando que está en unos niveles más controlados, y el impacto de los aranceles no está siendo tan negativo como se pensaba inicialmente". Asimismo, en el análisis con Renta 4 Banco, el experto nos comenta el sector bancario europeo después de un año muy bueno en Bolsa y si siguen siendo una oportunidad de compra. La industria enfrenta sin embargo posibles riesgos como rebajas tipos de interés, crecimiento más débil o competencia de las finanzas digitales. IAG, INDRA, ACS E INDITEX Entre los valores de la Bolsa española que analizamos con San Félix, figuran IAG y los problemas indirectos que le pueda acarrear Airbus con los fallos en los aciones A320. Además comentamos los movimientos pendulares de Indra y ACS. El experto de Renta 4 Banco nos adelanta como serán los resutlados de Inditex que publicará mañana. La carera de los 5 grandes de Renta 4 la siguen conformando IAG, Arcelor Mittal, Santander. Enagás y Cirsa.

Heart Led • Soul Fed Podcast | Hosted by Christine GoldIn this soul-expanding episode, Christine Gold welcomes world traveler, mystic, and Vedic astrologer Indra Rinzler — a seeker who has spent decades exploring consciousness, inner freedom, and the true nature of joy.Indra invites us to step away from the external search for meaning and turn inward, reminding us that the answers we chase are already inside us. With warmth, wisdom, and surprising simplicity, he breaks down the often-misunderstood world of Vedic astrology, including:✨ Why Vedic astrology uses sidereal time and how it differs from Western astrology✨ The real origin of the term “Vedic astrology”✨ Astrocartography and how your energy lines shape your experience on Earth✨ Why having a guide matters when interpreting these complex maps✨ The powerful distinction between destiny vs. purpose — and why purpose can become an ego trap✨ How true spiritual growth begins by meeting your insecurities with honestyThis episode offers a rare blend of cosmic insight and grounded self-awareness — the kind of conversation that leaves listeners thinking about life differently.A seasoned traveler of both the world and the inner realms, Indra shares the teachings that have shaped his path, culminating in his first book:

Climate summits such as the ongoing COP30 conference can often seem like a place where countries agree to disagree and little gets done. But Bill McKibben says there's one key reason for hope: the sun. New advances in panels and battery technology mean solar power will soon provide a growing share of our electricity consumption.  McKibbon is the author of the new book Here Comes the Sun: A Last Chance for the Climate and a Fresh Chance for Civilization.

Send us a textIn this raw shadow-soaked episode, Justine Lemos and Emily McConnell descend into the basement-level truths of a wild Scorpio stellium and the New Moon in Anuradha Nakshatra. With Mercury retrograde, Mars and Moon in Scorpio, and Venus smoldering in Libra, this is a conversation about secrecy, devotion, power, obsession, and the thin line between concealment and revelation.From underground raves and lotus flowers growing out of the muck, to global politics, taboo topics, and cultural shadow, the duo explores the archetypal terrain of Scorpio: sex, power, death, trauma, secrets—and transformation. Film references like Black Swan and American Beauty, along with dark, magnetic music picks (Billie Eilish, underground hip-hop), amplify the episode's sultry, dissonant, and entrancing vibe.A powerful Vedic myth of Brahma, Agni, Indra, and Vayu delivers the spiritual message of the episode: true power is not in domination, but in humility and curiosity. The blade of grass becomes the symbol of divine intelligence, reminding listeners that knowledge, not conquest, is the ultimate victory.This episode is a ritual in itself — part astrology lesson, part cultural critique, part devotional meditation, and part shadow dance.Themes: Scorpio secrets • Anuradha devotion • Power + concealment • Shadow integration • Erotic mysticism • Truth behind illusion • Knowledge as liberationSupport the show

Letnan Kolonel (Inf.) Teddy Indra Wijaya mungkin tak pernah bermimpi ada di posisinya saat ini sebagai seorang Sekretaris Kabinet Republik Indonesia, sebagaimana dirinya bertestimoni saat menjadi Asisten Ajudan Presiden Joko Widodo pada tahun 2016 silam. Sekali lagi, seorang Letnan Kolonel aktif TNI dipercaya untuk menduduki jabatan sipil tertinggi dalam koordinasi teknis kabinet, awalnya dianggap sangat ora umum dan agak laen. So, langsung aja, siapa sesungguhnya sosok yang kini telah dan sepertinya akan terus menarik perhatian ini? Lalu mengapa Presiden Prabowo memberikan kepercayaan lebih kepadanya? Dan apa makna dari penunjukan ini bagi dinamika politik-pemerintahan di masa depan?

And I shall apply all my strength to punish the inhabitants of Vrindavana.'” (Krishna, The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Volume 1, Chapter 25)

Javier Cabrera, analista de mercado, repasa las claves de la sesión, con vistazo a Telefónica, Puig, Caixabank, Unicaja, Acerinox, Mapfre e Indra.

How did Brahma create alluring women, and for what purpose? Why did the righteous King Bhangashvana choose womanhood? How did the sage Markandeya's pupil prevent his guru's wife from committing adultery? What role did Indra play in the births of Vishvamitra and Parashu Rama? How were death, diseases, desire and anger created? Why and how did the institution of kingship come about? What can one learn from the mouse who escaped the cat, the owl, the mongoose and the hunter; or the wise jackal who was betrayed by the lion king? Why did Shiva swallow Shukra, the guru of the Asuras? Embedded within the lengthy discourse on dharma in the Shanti and Anushasana Parvans of the Mahabharata are answers to a whole range of such questions-moral lessons from a dying Bhishma to King Yudhishthira, on life, death and everything in between. The Dharma of Unfaithful Wives and Faithful Jackals: Some Moral Tales From The Mahabharata is a highly entertaining selection of these tales-tangled at times, insightful at others, yet always quirky-about women, both good and bad, fathers and sons, kings, gods and kings of gods, and fables. The perceptive translations by Wendy Doniger, hailed as 'the greatest living mythologist', are a treat for anyone fascinated by the bewildering complexity of Hindu myth and lore.

Cc Madhya 18.1-66 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/18/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura gives the following information about Govinda-kuṇḍa. There is a village named Āniyora on Govardhana Hill, a little distance from the village of Paiṭha. Govinda-kuṇḍa is situated near here, and there are two temples to Govinda and Baladeva there. According to some, Queen Padmāvatī excavated this lake. In the Bhakti-ratnākara (Fifth Wave), the following statement is found: ei śrī-govinda-kuṇḍa-mahimā aneka ethā indra kaila govindera abhiṣeka “Govinda-kuṇḍa is exalted for its many spiritual activities. It was here that Indra, defeated by Lord Govinda, offered prayers to Him and bathed Him.” In the book Stavāvalī (Vraja-vilāsa-stava 74) the following verse is found: nīcaiḥ prauḍha-bhayāt svayaṁ sura-patiḥ pādau vidhṛtyeha yaiḥ  svar-gaṅgā-salilaiś cakāra surabhi-dvārābhiṣekotsavam govindasya navaṁ gavām adhipatā rājye sphuṭaṁ kautukāt  tair yat prādurabhūt sadā sphuratu tad govinda-kuṇḍaṁ dṛśoḥ “With humility caused by great fear, Indra took hold of the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa and, in the company of a surabhi cow, performed His coronation festival by bathing Him with the waters of the heavenly Ganges River. Thus Lord Kṛṣṇa's kingship over the cows became splendidly manifest. I pray that Govinda-kuṇḍa, the lake created by that ceremonial bath, may eternally appear before my eyes.” Also, in the Mathurā-khaṇḍa it is stated: yatrābhiṣikto bhagavān maghonā yadu-vairiṇā govinda-kuṇḍaṁ taj-jātaṁ snāna-mātreṇa mokṣa-dam “Simply by bathing in Govinda-kuṇḍa, one is awarded liberation. This lake was produced when Bhagavān Śrī Kṛṣṇa was bathed by Lord Indra.” (Cc Madhya 18.37, purport) 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #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

"Rajiv's books have been an important part of awareness building. And now we often get people who are activated, who have read Rajiv's books- say, Invading the Sacred or The Battle for Sanskrit or Indra's Net. Now, all of a sudden, they've been awakened to all of these different ecosystems and ideologies that have kept our civilization from tapping into our history, into our identity, in the way that we talk about ourselves and who we are has been constricted by a Western or Abrahamic framework. In some sense, it kind of becomes the entry point for anyone who's read any of Rajiv's books to want to become an activist, which, of course, is great for the Hindu American Foundation."- Suhag A.

In the epic Mahabharata, our last warrior, Yudhishthira, with his dog, enters the gates of paradise. He faces the law of the Cosmic Cage, the Demiurge, and his loyal follower, Indra. The journey to the gate was a long, slow act of severance. One by one, the world fell away from Yudhishthira. His brothers, great men who were pieces of his own heart, became frozen monuments on the path. His wife, the fire that had centered his life, was extinguished by the cold. The world stripped him bare, took his kingdom, his family, his strength, leaving him with nothing but the ache of memory and the silent, padding feet of a stray dog that had begun to follow him. The dog was the last living thing that shared his road. It was not a pet; it was a witness. Now he was standing in front of heaven, facing The Logic of a Flawed Paradise, programmed by the Demiurge's flawed, artificial, sterile mind! Will he enter like Noah? Will he hear the pain of Gilgamesh? The epic tale tells us that he did not bargain like Neo in the movie The Matrix. “It was the calmest, most absolute statement of fact the cosmos had ever heard.” More on David: https://www.davidblock.org/ Get The Occult Elvis: https://amzn.to/4jnTjE4 Virtual Alexandria Academy: https://thegodabovegod.com/virtual-alexandria-academy/ Gnostic Tarot Readings: https://thegodabovegod.com/gnostic-tarot-reading/ The Gnostic Tarot: https://www.makeplayingcards.com/sell/synkrasis Homepage: https://thegodabovegod.com/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/aeonbyte AB Prime: https://thegodabovegod.com/members/subscription-levels/ Voice Over services: https://thegodabovegod.com/voice-talent/ Support with donation: https://buy.stripe.com/00g16Q8RK8D93mw288 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
