Nature, humility, and spiritual vision can still the spinning of the mind and burn away the karmic illusion that we're the center of it all. From redwood awe to the Annapurna skyline, this episode explores how moments of stillness awaken spiritual clarity—and how the same truth unfolds on a cosmic scale when Lord Brahmā stands dumbstruck before Krishna's countless Viṣṇu forms (Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 10.13). Along the way, Raghunath and Kaustubha unpack some of the philosophical differences between Bhaktivedānta and Advaita Vedānta—divine personality and impersonal oneness. ********************************************************************* LOVE THE PODCAST?

Bṛhad-bhāgavatāmṛta Part 2 Chapter 2 Text 193 tat sukhaṁ vardhate 'bhīkṣṇam anantaṁ paramaṁ mahat na tu brahma-sukhaṁ muktau vardhate sīmavad yataḥ TRANSLATION That happiness increases endlessly.

“When King Indra ordered the samvartaka and companion clouds to go to Vrindavana, the clouds were afraid of the assignment. But King Indra assured them, ‘You go ahead, and I will also go, riding on my elephant, accompanied by great storms. And I shall apply all my strength to punish the inhabitants of Vrindavana.'” (Krishna, The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Volume 1, Chapter 25)

It looks like you might be looking for a song related to Lord Krishna's flute (Bansuri), and the name Rupa might refer to a few possibilities in this context.Based on the search results, the most likely connection involves Rupa Goswami, a significant spiritual figure, whose work "Sri Padyavali" contains verses describing the mesmerizing effect of Krishna's flute music on the Gopis (cowherd girls).There are also references to musical releases associated with the name Sona Rupa or featuring artists named Rakesh Chaurasia (a flutist) and Hemant Mattani (producer/composer) that focus on Krishna's flute music.To give you the best answer, could you clarify which "Rupa" you are referring to? * Rupa Goswami (The classical devotional poet)? * A singer or composer named Rupa? * A specific music label or series like Sona Rupa?Would you like me to search specifically for songs by a singer named Rupa about Krishna's flute?
In this moving episode, we revisit a lesser-known but deeply powerful story from the Mahabharata — a story that shows the compassion hidden within divine destiny.As preparations for the Kurukshetra war began, elephants were used to clear the forest to create the battlefield. In this destruction, a mother bird and her two tiny chicks lost their home when their nest fell from a tree. Helpless and frightened, the mother bird flew to Krishna, who was surveying the battlefield with Arjuna. She pleaded for her children's lives.Krishna gently explained that fate cannot be altered — if they were destined to perish, they would. But the little bird, filled with pure devotion, surrendered the life of her children at Krishna's feet, trusting Him completely. Krishna remained silent, and the bird flew away with faith.On the eve of the great battle, Krishna did something unexpected: He asked Arjuna for his bow and arrow. Though Krishna had promised not to fight in the war, Arjuna handed it over. Krishna shot an arrow at an elephant — but instead of striking the animal, it hit only the bell on the elephant's neck, knocking it down. Arjuna thought it was a miss, and the moment passed.Eighteen days later, after the war ended, the battlefield was filled with the fallen — men, animals, and shattered weapons. Krishna asked Arjuna to lift a bell lying on the ground. When Arjuna picked it up, he discovered the mother bird and her four chicks alive beneath it. Krishna's single action — shooting down the bell — had formed a shield that protected the family throughout the entire war

Krishna arrived in the U.S. from Haiti just over 2 years ago full of hope, wonder and promise. With a temporary protected status she finally felt safe and ready to take on new goals and challenges to make a life and career for herself. Leaving behind her aunt, brother, and cousin in Haiti, and her mother living in Suriname, she saw a future ahead of her full of opportunity and safety. She ached for their touch and to see them in person but thankfully technology bridged the distance and inspired her to persist while providing strength on her darkest days. In the U.S. she has created a life full of education, hard work, and friendship. Her first initiative was to learn English so she immediately registered for classes and attended adult education knowing this was as essential key to create independence. While going to classes 4 days a week, she also worked full time at a local grocery store. She was committed to her goals and deeply grateful to the many opportunities she was able to take advantage of. Adult education classes offered English, but also helped create a new community of friends along with a network of teachers and administrators who supported her along the way. She successfully graduated from that program in June 2025. She knew learning English was just the start to build her future, but simultaneously she felt called to a career in healthcare. Krishna enrolled in a Certified Nurse Aide certification course at a local community college where she engaged in lectures, labs, ESL class for medical curriculum support, and clinicals providing experience at the hospital and a local nursing home. After much hard work and study, she successfully passed the exam and is now certified. While continuing to look for a position at a nursing home, she is grateful for her work and the opportunities to improve her communication skills. With Krishna's internal motivation to succeed there is no doubt she will continue to persevere and keep moving forward wherever she may live. She is committed to her personal and professional goals and despite the challenges she remains faithful and positive about her future.

I’ll make a way through and wind the depth perception into a close taught brick wall, taut and locked kriss kross a loss
For as long as space endures And for as long as living beings remain Until then may I too abide To dispel the misery of the world. ―Shantideva Compassion and generosity are the hallmarks of the most elevated souls, fully manifested within beings like Buddha, Jesus, Krishna, Moses, and all the prophets. The amazing fact is that such beings were once like us: filled with greed, envy, resentment, and all of the psychological contaminations and defects that make us suffer. What is also empowering is that we have the potential to become like these enlightened masters, whom in the east are known as bodhisattvas: "the essence or incarnation of wisdom," the latter word indicating Prajna in Sanskrit, or "vis-dom: the power of vision / perception." The equivalent Hebrew term is Chokmah חָכמָה, signifying Christ in the mystical Kabbalah. The essence of genuine spirituality is kindness, selfless service, and comprehension of the root nature of all existence: the unsurpassed wisdom of emptiness, Prajna, Śūnyatā, or uncreated light of the Kabbalists, denominated in Gnostic terms as Khristos, Christ. Christ is not a human person, but the intense, primordial root energy of boundless compassion for suffering beings trapped within cyclic or manifested existence. This divine force, the emptiness of enlightened cognizance, sustains all of the universe and sacrifices itself by entering within those practitioners who are properly cultivated and prepared through the great perfections or paramitas, the trainings, principles, or qualities of awakened consciousness within Tibetan Buddhism. Learn about the path of enlightenment through a gnostic exegesis of Shantideva's seminal Mahayana text, The Way of the Bodhisattva, and how the enlightened mind / heart of wisdom, bodhichitta, can be developed within the practitioner of any denomination, religion, or tradition. This lecture introduces Shantideva's text, the purpose and contexts of its composition, and its practical application within the art and science of meditation. The lecturer also explains how the mystical kabbalah and the gnostic tradition of Samael Aun Weor can elucidate the esoteric nature of this scripture.

“One time, that wicked king of the Daityas saw his son of lotus-like face and beautiful eyes, surrounded by women, having returned from the home of the guru. In his hand, that boy was holding a slate which had the mark of a chakra at the top and the name of Krishna written with great adoration.” (Narasimha Purana, 41.35-36)
Tulsi is regarded as a divine plant in ayurveda. It is loaded with medicinal properties, particularly for the physical and vibrational heart, the skin, and the lungs, as attested in the Charak Samhita, the millennia-old Sanskrit text that Vaidya reads and translates during the session. It is also a mandatory feature in any Krishna temple, in India and across the world, where live Tulsi plants are grown in dedicated areas of the temple. This lecture by Vaidya Ramakant Mishra is part of the video seminar "Dravya Guna - Ayurvedic Pharmacopeia", a once-in-a-lifetime series of conferences held at the Prana Center over a three-month span in 2009. The whole collection of lectures totals 45 hours of tutorials, available as streaming videos at www.VaidyaMishra.com.

“I have in the past addressed You as ‘O Krishna,' ‘O Yadava,' ‘O my friend,' without knowing Your glories. Please forgive whatever I may have done in madness or in love. I have dishonored You many times while relaxing or while lying on the same bed or eating together, sometimes alone and sometimes in front of many friends. Please excuse me for all my offenses.” (Arjuna, Bhagavad-gita, 11.41-42)

Can every action truly be traced back to an inevitable reaction, or is karma something that we can eventually transcend? This episode promises an enlightening exploration into the intricate web of karma, drawing wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita and ancient tales of devotion. Our conversation touches on spiritual paths advocating for minimal harm, inviting seekers and the curious alike to ponder their spiritual journey.The intersection of spirituality and compassion takes centre stage as we dive into the principles of Bhakti.

As we navigate these themes, the challenge of accepting one's karma and the broader spiritual journey opens up rich discussions and insights.This episode serves as a hopeful guide, encouraging listeners to recognise life's attachments and embrace a more fulfilling path of spiritual surrender, ultimately opening the heart to the divine's gentle knock.(00:00) - Exploring the Concept of Karma(13:10) - Understanding and Embracing Karma(27:06) - The Promise to Krishna(31:45) - Navigating Attachment and Surrender to KarmaWant to connect further?Instagram: www.instagram.com/radhika_dasa/Facebook: www.facebook.com/radhikadasmusicYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/RadhikaDasWebsite: www.radhikadas.comPatreon: www.patreon.com/radhikadasLinktree: linktr.ee/radhika_dasa
Doesn't matter how much yoga you practice. Doesn't matter how detached you are, how mindful you are of the world; you may even achieve the point of equanimity. Has anybody here achieved complete equanimity, even when the monkey jumps on your head? No problem! So, even if you've achieved that state, it won't help you unless you have Acyuta-bhāva; you have to have that awakening that comes from Madana-Mohan. It stimulates the heart. It could come from the scent of the Tulasī leaf mixed with saffron. It could come from that one last Kīrtan, and we've seen it before. One young devotee came to the New York Ratha-yātrā. Complete equilibrium in life, because he grew up in a devotee family, and in one Kīrtan, the devotees were jumping up off the ground, and then he started jumping off the ground. After that, he said, "I'm in all the way." Changed. His heart changed. We know another devotee who came to Jagannāth Purī, and he saw the lotus eyes of Toṭā Gopināth, and he said, "That's it. I'm convinced. I'm in." Kṛṣṇa touches our heart. naiṣkarmyam apy acyuta-bhāva-varjitaṁ na śobhate jñānam (SB 1.5.12) Nothing else is enough in this world, through any process, except for bhakti, represented by Madana-Mohan. And that's what this temple is. It's what we should build in our heart. A monument in the heart that says nothing else but Kṛṣṇa only: the worshiping of Kṛṣṇa's lotus feet, chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. No other demigod, no other movie star, no other sports guy—unless you see them in relationship to Kṛṣṇa. When we have that experience of "I'm attracted to Kṛṣṇa, and all I want is Kṛṣṇa," it doesn't matter externally how entangled we are. Once that decision is there within the heart, due to this transformation from Madana-Mohan, then we're going back to Godhead. ------------------------------------------------------------ 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

How could we enter into Vrindāvan? How could we have a relationship with Kṛṣṇa? Revive our original relationship with Kṛṣṇa? The way that Yaśodā and all the residents of Vṛndāvan did. Isn't that what everybody here wants to know? Isn't this why you came to Brahmāṇḍa Ghāṭ today? This was what Rāmānanda Rāya said, and Lord Caitanya accepted. He said: jñāne prayāsam udapāsya namanta eva jīvanti san-mukharitāṁ bhavadīya-vārtām sthāne sthitāḥ śruti-gatāṁ tanu-vāṅ-manobhir ye prāyaśo 'jita jito 'py asi tais tri-lokyām (SB 10.14.3) Brahmā said, "Throw away as far as you can throw it, any idea of figuring out Kṛṣṇa with your intellect. Make no attempt by your intellect to try to understand Kṛṣṇa, because if you could understand Kṛṣṇa by your intellect, he wouldn't be Kṛṣṇa. He would be some ordinary person. jñāne prayāsam udapāsya namanta eva jīvanti san-mukharitāṁ bhavadīya-vārtām He recommended something that all of you are doing. Do you want to know what he recommended that you're already doing and what you're doing right now? He recommended dedicating one's life to hearing about Kṛṣṇa. Why did you come on this Yātrā? You just wanted to hear about Kṛṣṇa. Admit it. I want you to admit it. All you wanted to do was hear about Kṛṣṇa, right? So he said, "Jīvanti" means "just live for this." If all you do is live, stay alive somehow or other, so that you can hear about Kṛṣṇa in the next class, your life is perfect. All you need is a little khicaḍī and some ācār and maybe a pāpaḍam, but definitely some lime or lemon. Lime is better. That's all you want, so you can stay alive, a little something to feed the fire in the belly. Then all you want is a little place to lie down. It has to be clean. Maybe a mat, a straw mat. Is that good enough? A little straw mat, maybe six and a half feet? Is that good enough? Okay, so all you need is a little khicaḍī, some ācār, maybe pāpaḍam, lime, and a mat to lie down on, so that you can stay alive. You wake up and you think, "Okay, I'm still alive, right?" And then you say, "What do I do now?" Nothing else to do but hear about Kṛṣṇa. So Brahmā said, "Make this your life," or he said, "If it is your life, that's the perfect life.

“And a small child will lead them.” ~Isaiah 11:6What if the child promised in scripture isn't just one person — but all of us, humanity itself?In this talk, we explore the mystical idea that humanity itself is the “promised one” spoken of across traditions — a species destined to embody divine love, peace, and innocence... and to help others across the cosmos. Drawing from Christian mysticism, Emanuel Swedenborg, and other spiritual traditions, this reflection considers how Christ consciousness is emerging through our shared awakening. As the world changes through technology, conflict, and confusion, we are invited to remember our unity with God — within all beings, within all creation. This talk closes with a gentle meditative practice in compassion and awareness, helping us rediscover that divine freedom already living within.✨ Topics Covered: – The “child promised” of scripture and humanity's cosmic purpose – Emanuel Swedenborg's vision of divine life across the universe – Christ and Krishna consciousness as unity teachings – Letting go of judgment to live from divine compassion – A closing meditation on love, awareness, and freedom
