‘Wij zijn hier omdat jullie daar waren.' De Nederlandse geschiedenis van kolonisatie is onlosmakelijk verbonden met het Nederland van nu. Aan de hand van de geschiedenis van Hindostaanse contractarbeiders gaan we in gesprek over hoe ons nationale verhaal verandert als we ons koloniale verleden en onze migratiegeschiedenis serieus nemen.Wie mag zich eigenlijk echt ‘Nederlander' noemen? Waar de ene migrantengemeenschap tot zondebok wordt gemaakt, gaan andere groepen schijnbaar geruisloos in de massa op. Met Hindostanen, een van de grootste Surinaams-Nederlandse gemeenschappen in ons land, gebeurde dat laatste. Daardoor bleef een belangrijk deel van onze Nederlandse geschiedenis lang ongehoord: hoe contractarbeiders na de afschaffing van de slavernij werden uitgebuit op de plantages in Suriname. Ragna Indra Heidweiller beschrijft deze geschiedenis in haar boek Wij zijn hier door jullie (De Correspondent). Tijdens deze avond gaan we in gesprek over die geschiedenis, hoe ons nationale verhaal verandert als we het koloniale verleden en de migratiegeschiedenis serieus meenemen en wie we zien als ‘echte Nederlanders' in een land dat door en door een migratieland is.Over de sprekersRagna Indra Heidweiller schrijft over identiteit, inclusie en relaties.

Haar als stro na de zomer? Dat hoeft niet! In deze aflvering kijken we naar wat haar eigenlijk is, hoe de ayurveda ernaar kijkt en wat de zomer precies met je haar doet. We delen ayurvedische rituelen én praktische tips — van oliemassages en amla (huh wat? Nog meer reden om te luisteren) tot koelende voeding en slimme zwemgewoontes — zodat jij stralend uit het seizoen komt. En als je wast: gebruik een milde, sulfaatvrije shampoo. Sulfaten zijn agressieve reinigingsmiddelen die de cuticula beschadigen en het haar uitdrogen. Zeker in de zomer wil je zo mild mogelijk wassen. Wij zijn fan van deze van Lakshmi!

What keeps the digital world running safely behind the scenes, and why are so many organizations only now discovering that one of their most important security foundations is becoming increasingly difficult to manage? In this episode, I sit down with Lakshmi Hanspal, Chief Trust Officer at DigiCert, to demystify Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and explain why it quietly powers almost every secure digital interaction we rely on each day. From online banking and cloud services to connected devices, APIs and AI systems, PKI is the technology that verifies identities, protects communications and helps ensure the information we exchange can be trusted. Our conversation is inspired by DigiCert's latest PKI Modernization research, which surveyed senior IT and security leaders to understand how organisations are managing digital trust in an increasingly connected world. The findings reveal a growing gap between awareness and execution. While most leaders recognize the importance of digital trust, only 34% report having full visibility into their digital certificates, leaving many vulnerable to outages, operational disruptions, and unnecessary risk. Lakshmi explains why certificate management has become so fragmented over the years, how machine identities now outnumber human identities by a significant margin, and why AI is adding another layer of complexity as autonomous systems communicate at unprecedented scale. We discuss why spreadsheets and disconnected management tools are no longer sufficient, and why many organizations are moving towards centralized PKI management with greater automation and policy enforcement. We also look ahead to two challenges that are rapidly moving up the boardroom agenda. The first is establishing trust in AI-generated content through stronger verification, digital signatures, and cryptographic provenance. The second is preparing for a future in which quantum computing could eventually undermine today's encryption standards, making cryptographic agility an important business capability rather than simply a technical consideration. If you've ever wondered what lies behind the secure websites, applications, and digital services you use every day, this conversation offers a practical introduction to one of the internet's most important foundations while explaining why modernizing digital trust has become a business priority rather than simply an IT project. How prepared is your organization for the next generation of digital trust? I'd love to hear your thoughts and whether PKI modernization is already part of your security strategy.

What does real success look like? Bollywood actor Bijay J Anand rejected 22 Bollywood film offers at the peak of his career to pursue Kundalini Yoga and spirituality — and in this conversation with Gaurav Arora on the xMonks Drive Podcast, he explains exactly why, and what he found on the other side.Bijay J Anand is one of India's most extraordinary voices on spirituality, wellness, and conscious living. A working Bollywood actor, international Kundalini Yoga teacher, author, art consultant, and founder of Anahata Retreats Mumbai, Bijay has taught Kundalini Yoga and chakra healing across more than 30 countries, headlined international yoga festivals worldwide, and trained under legendary Kundalini Yoga teacher Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa in Los Angeles. He is the author of The Prosperity Code: The Spiritual Science of Wealth, Success and Power.In this episode Bijay reveals why he knows people worth $8 billion who have attempted to end their lives multiple times — and what that tells us about the real meaning of prosperity, success, and happiness. He breaks down the four stages of enlightenment, why the Anahata chakra is the easiest and most important chakra to open, what most people get completely wrong about Kundalini awakening and tapasya, and why going after Saraswati is the only real path to Lakshmi.He also shares his personal journey — from selling soaps on Mumbai local trains to becoming a Bollywood actor, a globally recognised Kundalini Yoga guru, and the author of The Prosperity Code — and why he believes you don't need a guru, a temple, a mosque, or a church to find God. Aham Brahmasmi. The divinity already exists within you.Released on International Yoga Day, this episode is one of the most honest and thought-provoking conversations on Kundalini Yoga, Indian spirituality, chakra healing, karma, Vedanta, and what it truly means to live a prosperous, awakened, and fulfilling life.---⏱️ CHAPTERS00:00 Chasing Wisdom Not Wealth00:21 Leaving Bollywood Behind02:41 Returning as King Janak04:14 Redefining Prosperity06:54 Anahata and Love09:22 Goals Versus Flow12:06 Warrior Sage Balance14:32 Self Work Attracts Lakshmi18:41 Kundalini and Miracles19:36 Be Honest Be Humble21:12 Rich Happy Blissful Enlightened21:41 You Are Your Own Guru22:44 Closing Gratitude---

This episode originally aired in 2025 and, as one of our most-loved conversations, we're sharing it again with you today."Before you speak, ask yourself: “Is it honest? Is it kind? Is it necessary? Is it the right time? Does it improve the silence?” - Sathya Sai Baba  Today, Erin and Sasha explore the 5th Chakra of speech, poetically named Vishuddha, meaning “purification of poison.” Vishuddha Chakra represents the Ether element, and the ability to turn poison into nectar - the process of purification. It is located in the throat, and is the seat of the power of the word. It brings Prana to the respiratory system.   “The more silence behind your word, the greater the impact.” You may find, upon personal practice, that the simple elegance of Silence can be prescribed to most internal challenges. This chakra represents the quality of honest communication, turning ignorance into awareness, transmutation, choice, alchemy, infinity, receptivity, sensitivity, self-expression, “finding one's voice,” the ability to speak from the heart, and the ability to listen from the heart. Used properly, Vishuddha makes our words nectar, not poison. All poison becomes nectar when Vishuddha is strong and stable, developed and activated.   Our words create reality, and since they originate from thought, our thoughts create our reality. Therefore, words are not only descriptive, but creative. When Vishuddha is activated, everywhere you go, becomes better as a result of you being there. If too much noise is there, too much talking or too much thinking, Vishuddha cannot be stabilized, because the element it represents is Ether (spaciousness, emptiness).   The bija mantra for Vishuddha is “Hum,” which means “I am.” Because on a micro-level, we are God: the creator, preserver, and destroyer. Which brings me to the story of Samudra Manthan, the churning of the ocean. Once upon a time, the devas (gods) and asuras (demons) were on a quest to retrieve Amrita, the sacred nectar of immortality. In doing so, they had to churn the ocean using Mount Mandara as the churning rod, and Vasuki (the serpent King) as their rope. As they churned in what appears to be the original tug of war, Divine gifts emerged, like Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, and the celestial cow Kamadhenu. However, before the Amrita appeared, a deadly poison called Halahala surfaced, threatening to destroy all of existence. Terrified, the devas and asuras turned to Lord Shiva for help, and in an act of supreme selflessness, he took the poison to his mouth to prevent it from harming creation. But instead of swallowing it or spitting it out, he held it in his throat, where it turned his skin blue, earning him the name of Neelkantha (the Blue throated one).   This moment of holding and transforming toxicity without allowing it to spread, is the symbolic origin of the Vishuddha Chakra. Just as Lord Shiva purified the deadly poison without letting it harm him, Vishuddha governs the purification of thought, word, and energy. Shiva's restraint symbolizes conscious speech, wisdom, and the power of truth.   The throat chakra teaches that life contains both poison (negativity, challenges) and nectar (divine wisdom). It is our ability to process, hold, and transmute energy that determines our spiritual growth. This chakra represents self-mastery, communication, and purification. Like Shiva, we must learn to hold challenges with grace, not letting toxicity consume us but instead transforming it into wisdom. When our Vishuddha Chakra is balanced, we speak with clarity, authenticity, and purpose, just as Shiva's act saved creation. Send us Fan MailThis episode is brought to you by Ojas Oasis Ayurveda, Sasha's private clinical practice.

This episode originally aired in 2025 and, as one of our most-loved conversations, we're sharing it again with you today.Today, Erin and Sasha continue our Chakra series with Anahata, meaning “eternal unstruck sound.” Anahata is the fourth chakra, located at the heart, which is the seat of love and compassion. It is also the location of Vishnu Granthi (the knot of Vishnu). Its element is air, color is green, planet is Venus, and Ishta Devata is Lakshmi. Having neurons and brain cells, the heart holds the highest level of electromagnetic energy, inspiration, devotion, timelessness, and joy without reason. When Anahata is in a knot, there is attachment, neediness, longing, co-dependency, and a “me and mine” mentality. Vishnu Granthi converts once Anahata is developed and stable, and then there is an energy of immense clairvoyance, deep compassion, transcendence of fear, greater kundalini rising, experience of pleasure, and authentic connection. Lakshmi lives here, the goddess of Abundance and Prosperity. Abundance is a state, and in this state, all lack disappears. Anahata's base value of Peace (Shanti) converts to Bliss (Ananda) and then into Compassion, which is really just pain held in love. The feeling of Grace, or knowing you are held in Love, only arises when Anahata is open and online. It is not only about having an abundance mindset of gratitude, but an abundant heart, and with the help of a strong spine; an open, ever softening heart. So even when we experience personal pain, grief, sorrow, and despair, it makes us better people. When we go into deeper states within our heart, pain is not our enemy. It becomes maturity and compassion. Sensitivity is not weakness, it is our superpower. We must train it, not suppress it. Let the tears come, let them flow, and be grateful for them. This allows the heart to stay safe as it expands. And remember, where there is gratitude, there is Lakshmi, abundance and prosperity. Send us Fan MailThis episode is brought to you by Ojas Oasis Ayurveda, Sasha's private clinical practice.

27th May 2026In this Satsnag, Sanjay spoke about Eid al-Adha, discussing the concept of sacrifice as surrendering the ego and achieving self-realization through recognizing one's true nature as pure awareness. He explained that when people understand "I am only awareness," they can experience the same bliss and peace in waking life as in deep sleep, describing this as entering a state of Samadhi while remaining active. Lakshmi asked about handling noisy family members and maintaining inner peace, to which Sanjay advised keeping quiet, having compassion, and not trying to change others, suggesting that the desire for more solitude might be a sign of spiritual progress. Sanjay also discussed how egoless awareness affects relationships, explaining that without ego, one becomes insensitive to others' egoistic behavior and simply witnesses whatever happens without trying to fix or change situations.These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

6th May 2026In this Satsang, Sanjay delivered a spiritual teaching on the futility of searching for permanent happiness and immortality in the external world. Drawing on a story from Buddha's time about a warrior seeking a physical place where no one dies, he explained that true immortality and eternal bliss (Satchitananda) can only be found by turning inward and realizing the unchanging, formless Self. He highlighted how the mind constantly divides and creates "fake news" of discrimination, urging seekers to treat all worldly projections like an illusory movie and to abide instead in the unified silence of the heart. The session beautifully concluded with a guest speaker, Lakshmi from Nepal, who shared her transformative journey from practicing Vipassana to discovering profound inner silence through Ramana Maharshi's teachings via Conscious Circle, culminating in her writing a book and devoting her life to solitude. Sanjay celebrated her dedication, discussed the idea of an inclusive spiritual center, and announced upcoming Hindi Satsangs for the community. These are teachings and pointers from ongoing NDA(Non-duality awareness)/Advaitic Satsangs held at Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia.

Why Isn't Everyone Becoming a Fulfillionaire? with JP Newman What if your relationship to money has nothing to do with how much you have, and everything to do with the frequency you're operating from? In this episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily Fletcher sits down with investor, entrepreneur, and Fulfillionaire founder JP Newman for a conversation that will permanently shift how you think about financial freedom. JP has spent decades working with high net worth individuals who achieve their financial goals and still feel empty, and he's built a framework that addresses why. The Fulfillionaire approach goes beyond net worth. JP maps out four dimensions of wealth, People, Purpose, Play, and Presence, and shows how clarity in each of these areas is what actually dissolves the scarcity loop. He introduces the concept of the freedom number (or the "plenty number"), explains how passive income works in practice, and walks through why most people are unconsciously running a strategy he calls "hope and pray." Emily shares her own story of how a single week of nervous system work with Kate Northrup helped her team identify $1.1 million in cuttable expenses, not through grinding harder, but through changing her energetic relationship to money first. This episode bridges Vedic wisdom, Judeo-Christian mystical tradition, and practical financial literacy, making it one of the most grounded and spiritually resonant money conversations in the show's history. In this episode, they explore: – The four P's of multidimensional wealth and why financial planning without them creates one-dimensional success – How to find your freedom number and stop the "hope and pray" strategy – The Vedic teaching on Lakshmi and why money wants somewhere to go – Why scarcity persists even in billionaires, and what the data on Warren Buffett's Giving Pledge reveals – The eight levels of giving according to mystical tradition, and which one creates the cleanest spiritual transaction – How Emily's energy shift produced $1.1 million in discovered savings in one week – A practical parenting strategy for teaching kids financial empowerment starting at age six – Why JP turned Fulfillionaire into a nonprofit Key Moments: 00:00 – The moment money stops being something you chase 04:30 – JP's origin story 09:00 – Why no one teaches us what winning actually looks like 14:00 – The four dimensions of Fulfillionaire wealth 21:00 – Hope and pray strategy and speculative risk 26:30 – Active vs. passive income explained 32:00 – What passive cash flow looks like in practice 39:00 – The scarcity paradox and the Giving Pledge 46:00 – Lakshmi and the Vedic view of abundance 51:00 – Emily's $1.1 million discovery 57:00 – The identity shift from scarcity to stewardship 01:04:00 – The eight levels of giving 01:11:00 – Why Fulfillionaire became a nonprofit 01:17:00 – Teaching kids about money at age six 01:24:00 – Why isn't everyone becoming a Fulfillionaire?

En nepalesisk pige på 13 år bor i bjergene med sin familie, der i desperation må sende hende hjemmefra for at arbejde. Optimismen er stor, da Lakshmi rejser til Indien, indtil hun opdager sin skæbne: Her bliver hun solgt til prostitution... Det er plottet i den mest forbudte bog i USA i 2025, 'Sold' af Patricia McCormick. Vi undersøger dens kontroversielle karakter. Og så ser vi nærmere på den algeriske forfatter, Kamel Daoud, der efter eget udsagn er idømt 3 års fængsel in absentia for en anden roman, der her har vakt furore i Algeriet. På programmet er også Københavns boldklubs omdiskuterede jubilæum og 'looksmaxxing' på højrefløjen. Medvirkende: Mia Rendix, ph.d. og litteraturforsker ved hhv. Københavns og Stockholms Universitet. Nanna Mogensen, vært P1-programmet Skønlitteratur. Rasmus Alenius Boserup, tidligere seniorforsker ved DIIS. David Turner, kulturjournalist, fodboldfan og producer på K-Live.

“The Deities of Radha and Krishna, Lakshmi and Narayana, and Rama and Sita are very attractive to devotees, so much so that when they see the statue decorated in the temple of the Lord they become fully absorbed in thought of the Lord. That is the state of liberation.” (Shrila Prabhupada, Shrimad Bhagavatam, 3.25.36 Purport)

In my interview with SŪNNA (Listen) writer and director Radha Mehta, she shared her journey from being a civil engineer, to artist and filmmaker, and how this short about Lakshmi (Aaliya Mehta) a young traditional Indian musician losing her hearing, is inspired by Rahda's own lived experiences and journey.SŪNNA also stars award-winning stage performer and musician Anisha Nagarajan as Lakshmi's mother, Savita.Visit https://www.radhamehta.com/ to see some of Radha's art work and information about her other short films.Find me on Social Media at: @CarrieCnh12To donate to my work, fund can be given through paypal.com/paypalme/carolynhinds0525My Social Media hashtags are: #CarolynTalks #DramasWithCarrie #SaturdayNightSciFi #SHWH #KCrushVisit Authory.com/CarolynHinds to find links to all of my published film festival coverage, writing, YouTube and other podcasts So Here's What Happened!, and Beyond The Romance.

Many people first came to know Padma Lakshmi during her 19-season tenure as host of Top Chef, but now she's returning to the world of competition cooking shows as the the host, creator, and executive producer of America's Culinary Cup. The new CBS series features some of the biggest names in the food industry and boasts the largest monetary prize awarded in culinary competition show history. Today on Nice Talk, Lakshmi discusses how the one-million-dollar prize pot came to be, what it's like to create a show from scratch, and how she approaches getting dressed for on-screen appearances. Plus, she shares her dinner party hosting tips and her favorite restaurants in New York.

I've been broke. Sharing-a-can-of-tuna-with-my-cat broke. So I'm not coming at this from some high horse — I've been in it. But here's what I've learned since then: most of the time, we're not actually broke. We just feel broke. And that feeling? It's running the whole show. In this episode I'm talking about how your energy and your frequency around money shape what comes to you, what a craps table in Vegas taught me about choosing the right vibe, and a stat about income that might genuinely change the way you carry yourself today. We're also doing a guided meditation together calling on Lakshmi, the goddess of abundance — because sometimes you just need to sit still and remember what you already have.

Eighty years after Indian independence, the economic fingerprint of British colonial rule is still visible at the district level. Two institutions in particular left scars: whether a district was governed directly by British administrators or by one of India's roughly 680 Indian princes, and what kind of land tax arrangement the British put in place. For example, by 1991, directly ruled districts had nine percentage points fewer middle schools and a 20-percentage-point lower probability of having a road than areas under indirect rule. The question was whether those gaps would eventually close.Lakshmi Iyer of the University of Notre Dame tells Tim Phillips that by 2011 infrastructure gaps had closed completely. Targeted post-independence programmes, including the Minimum Needs Program of the 1970s and the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan of 2001, pushed schools, health centres, and roads towards underserved districts. The picture for land tenure is mixed. Areas that historically had landlord-based systems are still 17% behind non-landlord areas in wheat yields, and the gap in fertiliser use has widened rather than narrowed. One reason, the policy response was a universal subsidy rather than being specifically aimed at places that had fallen behind.So colonial legacies can be erased, but only by policies designed to reach the places that were left behind. When policies have equalisation built in, historical gaps disappear. When they do not, the gaps persist.The research behind this episode:Iyer, Lakshmi and Coleson Weir. 2025.

I met Sadhvi Saraswati at Mindvalley in Amsterdam this summer and I knew I had to bring her on the podcast. She grew up in Hollywood, went to Stanford, was in the middle of a PhD program and then one moment on the banks of the Ganga in Rishikesh changed everything. She never went back.   Now she is the co-founder of the Ganga Aarti, the largest daily spiritual ritual on the sacred Ganges River, she speaks at the UN about women's rights and spirituality, and she is one of the most grounded and luminous teachers I have ever sat with.   This conversation went everywhere. From what Sanatana Dharma actually is and why it is for all of us, to cultural appropriation, to the very real and very personal question of how do we keep our hearts open to sacred love in a world that feels so hard to love in right now.   In this episode we explore:

In this episode of 10X Growth Strategies, host Arthi Vijayaraghavan sits down with Lakshmi Nair — drug development scientist and genetic engineering researcher — to unpack the science, promise, and responsibility behind CRISPR and gene editing. Drawing from her journey across academia and biomedical research, Lakshmi explains how CRISPR transformed genetic engineering from slow, uncertain experimentation into precise DNA editing — and why that leap could reshape medicine, cancer treatment, and hereditary disease forever. From transgenic models and drug development to the realities of scientific failure and perseverance, the conversation reveals what modern biomedical innovation truly looks like behind the scenes. The episode explores the ethical frontier of gene editing — germline modification, designer traits, disability vs identity, and who gets to decide what should be “fixed” in humans. The discussion also connects CRISPR with AI-driven research, data-intensive clinical trials, and the global scientific ecosystem that turns basic research into life-saving therapies. From biohacking and scientific curiosity to regulation, responsibility, and the future of humanity, this is a thoughtful, deeply grounded conversation on what it means to hold the power to rewrite life itself. A fascinating listen for technologists, policymakers, investors, and anyone curious about where biology, AI, and human evolution intersect. ⸻ 00:00 – Introduction & Lakshmi's Background 02:00 – Why CRISPR Changed Genetic Engineering 06:00 – Scientific Journeys, Curiosity & Upbringing 12:00 – CRISPR Explained for Non-Biologists 18:30 – Medical Applications: Cancer & Genetic Disease 23:30 – Scientific Collaboration & Peer Review 26:30 – Biohacking & Democratizing Biology 30:00 – Gene Editing Ethics & Germline Debate 36:00 – Identity, Disability & Human Choice 40:00 – From Lab Research to Drug Development 45:00 – AI in Clinical Trials & Biomedical Data 50:00 – Future of Gene Editing & Responsibility 54:00 – Closing Reflections

Lakshmi, usually seen as wealth of diamonds, gold, and pearls is also the riches of the Earth - minerals, metals, food, wood, and clay. She is our home. She is all our resources, and she is resourceful. She is the wealth of love that enriches our lives, and also the inner wealth of virtues and good character. She is all things we treasure.  She is in you. She is in me. She is in the world we see. Lakshmi is in the potency by which we make things happen, our efficiency in action, our ease that comes with experience. But mostly, we see her in our acts of charity and altruism. She is also the sparkle of contentment, carefreeness, security and happiness in our eyes. We are constantly looking for wealth, maybe forgetting how much of it we already have.   

Lakshmi is a long time homeopath and a forever student, exploring all the ways that we can go deeper into ourselves and what this means for healing.  In this podcast, Sarah and lakshmi discuss deep spiritual practices alongside the role of homeopathy and with a wealth of learning and spiritual adventures, Lakshmi is an excellent practitioner to help others navigate this space.   Lakshmi is a practitioner in Sarah's clinic in Australia and also a coach and guide to many clients. https://thefamilyapothecary.com.au/about/#consultants-and-feeshttps://pranaforyou.com.au/

Today, Theresa and Jennifer are discussing the Year of the Fire Horse and what that might mean for how we move through the year. First, what are we hearing and feeling about the Fire Horse? High-energy, sometimes chaotic, transformation, bold changes, breaking old patterns... It's an excellent time for self care and community care and maybe incorporating some white or blue into your life to balance the fiery red.How may we choose to show up in a big collective community care way? Protesting, activism, nonviolence. Erica Chenoweth is someone Theresa refers to when thinking about countering the violence with non-violence. We discuss what makes a successful nonviolent movement: 1. the ability to organize large scale participation and build momentum, 2. ability to illicit loyaltyships in key pillars of support. 3. maintain resilience even under violence. 4. innovate beyond street demonstrations.Playbook of every successful non-violent struggle.Jennifer think about the different roles we might play when engaged in a movement as outlined in the Social Change Ecosystem Map. And is inspired by the wisdom shared by Valerie Kaur  and her philosophy on Revolutionary Love: Three Different Tenets to it.

In this episode, we tell the story of the Rani of the Jhansi Regiment, the first all-female combat unit in modern Indian history, formed in Singapore during World War II and led by Dr Lakshmi Sahgal, known as Captain Lakshmi.Most of its members were teenage Tamil girls from plantation communities in Malaya and Burma, many with little formal education, who left estate life to train as soldiers in the Indian National Army. We trace how they were recruited, trained, deployed to the Burma front, and forced into retreat as the war turned against Japan and the INA.Although the regiment never fought a major battle, its legacy reshaped ideas about women's roles in anti-colonial struggle and military service. Drawing on historical research and oral histories, this episode explores how nationalism, class, gender, and war collided in Southeast Asia, and how ordinary young women briefly became part of a global conflict and a revolutionary movement.Hosted by Agas Ramirez.Full script and bonus episodes available on Patreon.All links available here.Audio ClipsWildFilmsIndia - Laxmi Sehgal of the INA on The Forgotten Army ExpeditionDoordarshan National - Speech of Netaji Subhas Chandra BoseInterkast - शुभ सुख चैन की/Subh Sukh Chain Ki - With Auspicious Happiness | Anthem of Free IndiaYouTube Free Audio ClipsTheme Music - Goddess of War - Unicorn HeadsJourney Home - Chris Haugen

In this episode, we're diving deep into how your spirit guides are actually assigned to you, and it's completely in alignment with your Divine Plan. Your spirit guides aren't just floating in and out of your life, they're here with a sacred purpose. Some have been with you for lifetimes. Others arrive during soul activations, spiritual initiations, or major life shifts. And yes… you chose many of them in collaboration with your higher self and Council of Light before you incarnated. In this session, I'll walk you through how spirit guides are selected based on your soul blueprint, purpose, and karmic lessons. We explore primary guides, phase-based guides, ancestral support, and even “divine plan adjusters” who step in when life takes a detour (or quantum leap!). What We Cover Understand how spirit guides are assigned pre-birth in collaboration with your Council of Light to support your soul mission and karmic lessons. Learn the difference between primary guides (who stay with you for life) and phase-based guides who appear during key soul shifts and activations. Discover why your soul chooses your personality, path, and gifts, before incarnation, and how your guides are matched accordingly. Explore the roles of ancestral guides, angelic beings, cosmic support, and divine deities like Isis or Lakshmi in your spiritual team. Find out what happens when you deviate from your soul path, and how “divine plan adjuster” guides intervene to realign you. Get clear on the impact of free will on your soul plan and why asking for divine interference can quantum leap you back into alignment. Learn how to consciously choose and call in guides to support your next level of expansion, healing, or service. ✨ Whether you've felt disconnected from your spiritual team or you're ready to deepen your relationship with them, this episode will help you understand how supported you truly are, and how to consciously call in more guidance, love, and alignment.

Kamau Bell.

Sita, the heroine of the Hindu epic Ramayana and a divine feminine avatar of Lakshmi, is often misunderstood. She is praised for her patience, remembered for her suffering, but rarely honored for her sovereign choices, her hidden fire, her radical return to Self. In this extraordinary episode, Acharya Shunya brings together the creators of Sitayana—a groundbreaking audio retelling of the Ramayana through Sita's eyes. Together with producer Michael Sternfeld, devotional artist Nina Rao, mystic Mirabai Starr, and author Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, she explores exile, dharma, silence, devotion, and the moment when Sita says no… and returns to the Earth. Includes a stirring passage from "Sita Returns to Mother Earth" and a devotional song offered by Nina Rao to invoke her presence through sacred sound.

We unpack prosperity as a measurable shift in frequency that shapes choices, timing, and the opportunities that appear when your inner field steadies. Drawing from our new book, Sacred Sound Formulas to Awaken the Modern Mind, we walk through Lakshmi's grace-filled current, Kubera's protective wealth codes, and a practical method for clearing scarcity at its roots. If you've felt stuck—undercharging, hesitating to ask, or cycling through feast and famine—this conversation gives you tools that work in the real world.We explore Lakshmi beyond the bank account: harmony in health, relationships, and the mood of the home. You'll hear how simple rituals—light, flowers, Friday practice—train attention toward order and beauty, creating conditions for flow. Then we get specific. Om Shrim Maha Lakshmiyai Namaha builds a steady base of abundance, Om Suvarna Daye Namaha invites “golden” cash momentum, and Om Shrim Kleem Namah Shivaya blends Shiva consciousness with Shakti magnetism for career pivots and bold moves. For rapid traction and client flow, we add Kubera codes: Hasaka La I La Rim and Om Sham Kuberaya Namaha—precision practices people use to clear invoices, fill calendars, and stabilize revenue.This isn't superstition; it's a system. Pair daily chanting with wealth hygiene: a 40-day commitment, 108 repetitions, clear pricing, clean offers, and weekly money dates. We also address mindset repair—therapy or coaching where needed—so your nervous system can actually receive. Expect grounded stories, practical steps, and a reminder that generosity and gratitude are part of lasting prosperity.
