Maneesha Deckha is a law professor at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada. Her work initially spanned human rights, injustice, feminist theory, post-colonial & decolonial theory and later, inter-species justice and its links and intersectionality with human social justice. Maneesha founded and directs the Animals & Society Research Initiative at Victoria University. She is the author of the book “Animals as Legal Beings”. In Sentientist Conversations we talk about the most important questions: “what's real?”, “who matters?” and "how can we make a better world?"

Hi Friends, This is an informative yet playful short podcast, but also empowering. Life is a thril filled with creativity, unconditional realms of infinite love and light, yet we get so caught up in ................. The podcast was spired by conscious co-creators that posed some questions directly to Ganesh, so here is his response.

Welcome back! In this episode I share a very personal story about Lord Ganesh, the Hindu god of obstacles, and how he wove his way into my life over the last year without my realizing it until just yesterday. I share the sequence of events of this story as well as a detailed account of a Quantum Healing Session that I had with Luna Belle Young, powerful healer and soul sister (find her @lunabelleyoung on Instagram). It's a story about helping my teenage self reclaim her freedom and sovereignty that will inspire you to keep doing the deep work and to never give up on your path to self-actualization. It's a reminder that the universe is always conspiring in your favor, and it always delivers what you need at the exact moment that you need it.

Our perceptions are always shifting, expanding, dissolving as we open up to grow, blossom and bloom. Earth itself is infinite, knowing how to self seed, energise and thrive, in essence there are infinite earths. We have the ability to tune into any earthly realm as we let go, surrender limiting belief systems, so Lord Shiva, Ganesh, Parvati, Lakshmi, Hanuman and others came together to create an Ayurveda course and not only this one but others globally, to share the manifestation ability within Ahimsa, and all the elementals of the 8 limbs of Yoga. In this podcast we simply share an overview, introducing some constructs that are evolving in the exquisite tapestries of light made manifest within the infinite earth, how that can shift every cell in our human form as it creates, evolves itself, shifting limited ‘definitions' into constant expansions moment to moment within equanimity of playfulness, joy, fun and flow. Vibrations are an everyday reality flow, how we attune to this transforms our journey infinitely everyday in so many ways. It is up to us as individuals and as a collective, however each moment reveals infinite potential ready to be self realised. Being aware of what you truly desire, not what you ‘think' you desire but are in resonance with creates the effortless manifestation. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/simplyblooming/message

Hi Friends, This satsang Om Sound Meditation by Lord Ganesh shares insights with Om Sound Frequency Vibration through what was the original context within a Veda. The sounds Lord Ganesh is making seems quite short and very faint almost barely there, however they are the primordial waves of light emanating from direct source. Your interconnection as source is very intimate, each will have your own personal story of self that rises up and blooms as the lotus of light. Om Guru, Shanti, Shanti, Shanti that is truly the being that simply is, YOU. xoxoxo Lord Ganesh

Hi Friends, As shared in previous podcasts, we share the first of a series of specific meditation flows with Lord Ganesh, if you are open to allowing him to be present with you as you listen you experience is the very OM of existence but unique to your own grand adventure. Starting with air - breath - light - love - shanti - peace - presence. Enjoy♥️ xoxoxoxo --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/simplyblooming/message

Hi Friends, In this podcast we begin to manifest - ground elements of topics, and future podcasts we will be co-creating. Ganesh shares and invites you to begin your integrated direct connection within a moving meditation. We are all about being self-empowered, open-hearted and kind to self and others, 'Ahimsa do no harm,' this moving meditation is the being that you are, integrated within your daily flow. I will be sharing, throughout podcast flows what it is in directly communicating on different frequencies of our vital life force with nature. We have also opened up our photography website simplyblooming.com.au which will share many expressions of nature each with its beautiful light vibrations, with so much exploring, and photographing to come. I am planning a thru hike in the later part of the year, which will be shared as we traverse different terrain, and communicate with nature and other indigenous beings of light. Happy co-creating xoxox

Hi Friends, In preparation for our next collaborative share podcast, Lord Ganesh decided to create this podcast on Care - What is it to be in care of self.' This an inspiring share, and one that we ask as always to relax into your non-breath, or as some of you know it you unique rhythm in breath, and have some water before you listen to this podcast, about mid-way through this will truly benefit you, but please be open to what your inner realm in harmony of self shares with you in your own readiness, life is not on a clock that dictates to you, but rather it is the energy that creates effortless manifestation in harmony of all that is you. Namaste from the Simplyblooming Team xoxox

Podcast by Lakshmi Sai Mayukha of 1B on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi.

Hi Friends, We flow into this podcast as a prelude to an up-and-coming share with a professor from the UK who specializes in 'linguistics' and so much more. Communication through calibrating and oscillating sound, frequency, and vibrations shifts nanosecond by nanosecond, however, there are stages in life where a completely different calibration of the primordial YOU manifests. Lao Tse, Kwan Yin, Lord Ganesh, Isis, Lord Shiva, and many others show up to commune and dive a little deeper into a resonance that births, and restores, different light experiences in, of, within Gaia- Earth. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/simplyblooming/message

On the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi, I am singing this simple, joyous, popular Hindi bhajan which is infused with loving devotion. The elephant-headed God of auspicious beginnings is fondly invited to enter our homes and bring along other beloved gods with Him, including the Trinity of Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh as also Sita, Ram and Lakshman. Lord Ganesh is asked to bless the home, remove all obstacles and shower his blessings on all its inhabitants.

On the one hand, there is massive propaganda from the west, ably supported by native sepoys, that India is on the verge of some genocide of Muslims. On the other hand, last month, the Speaker of the Kerala Assembly, a Muslim, said that Lord Ganesh was “a myth”. Instead of censuring him for hurting the sentiments of Hindus, the ruling communists of Kerala supported him.This month, Udayanidhi Stalin, a minister, who is also the son of the DMK Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu M K Stalin, said Sanatana Dharma is like dengue, and needs to be eradicated. A former Union Minister, A Raja, compared Hinduism to HIV. Thus there is de facto discrimination and hate speech against Hindus, and Stalin Jr's call, for all practical purposes, is an invitation to genocide of Hindus. Several bigwigs in politics, including the DMK's allies such as the Congress, instead of censuring Stalin Jr for calling for crimes against humanity, have instead supported him.Then there is de jure discrimination against Hindus as well. The Constitution through Articles 25-30 appears to give protection to non-Hindus (based on some strange idea that Hindus would oppress them), which has been interpreted by the courts as giving extraordinary privileges to non-Hindus in all sorts of ways. The same is true of governments as well: in fact there are Kerala government job postings reserved exclusively for converts to Christianity, not to mention the pilgrimage concessions given to Muslims and Christians, but not to Hindus. The Supreme Court, on its own accord, forcefully chided Nupur Sharma merely for quoting correctly a verse from an Islamic source, and claimed she was causing fissures in society. But the Supreme Court has not bothered with any suo moto comments on Stalin Jr or A Raja. This is apartheid, a classic oppression of majority populations to benefit minorities. Anand Ranganathan's recent book goes into detail in this, and I am sure it is worth a read. An apartheid state is unsustainable and needs to be reformed. The fact of the matter is that there are several religions intent on world conquest, Christianity, Islam and their modern-day variants Communism and Wokeism. All of them view Hindus as targets and as sacrificial lambs for their glory.Unfortunately, this is not even new. Here's a letter to the editor published in the Hindu newspaper, apparently in the 1940s. This is a public episode.

In this episode, we narrate the story of how Tulsi got smitten by Lord Ganesh's diving form and wanted to marry him.

Hello everyone! Happy new moon in the sidereal Capricorn! Capricorn is the sign of the government, finances, and economy. Globally, this new moon may bring more a focus, changes, or shifts in regards to these areas of life! The Sun represents leaders of all kinds. Being in the Saturn-Ruled-Sign of Capricorn, as well as it's current position in the sky, leaders may also be under some pressure! On a personal level, for the past 2.5 - 3 years, there has been a huge focus on the sign of Capricorn in our personal lives as Saturn sat heavy in this sign. This new moon offers us an opportunity to reflect on themes, changes, wins, or challenges for the past few years and integrate any of the major lessons learned during this period of time. Uttara Ashadha literally relates to being "victorious" or "undefeatable". The god associated with Uttara Ashadha is Lord Ganesh, the remover of obstacles. In this segment, we take some time philosophizing on success, defeat, and how the shift in perception could change what obstacles mean to us. Listen to the full segment to hear more and sign up for patreon - patreon.com/astrologynowpodcast to learn how these shifts will impact you.

Chamika Lit Candles To Lord Ganesh Not Lord Buddha

India Policy Watch #1: Ganesh Ji & Lakshmi Ji To The Rescue  Insights on domestic policy issues — RSJSometime last week, this newsletter marked three years of its existence. A blink of an eye in the larger scheme of things. Yet, it feels nice to have reached this milestone. Consistency might be the virtue of an ass, but it is a virtue nevertheless. In these three years, we have stayed somewhat true to our purpose in every edition we have sent out. We have analysed policies intending to anticipate their unintended consequences. We have debated about what's good in the long term for India since we care for it. And we have tried to influence or perhaps shape the demand side of the political equation by increasing awareness about public policy among our readers. This is a marathon, and we are in it for the long run. No effort is too small. We cannot thank you enough for the generosity of your time in reading us. Anyway, returning to one of the things we care for deeply. India's future prospects. No amount of thinking about it could have brought us to the conclusion that Arvind Kejriwal reached last week about this vexing issue. The leader of AAP addressed a press conference where he asked the PM for a critical policy intervention:"I appeal to PM Modi that the Indian currency has the picture of Gandhi ji on one side, it should remain like that. But on the other side, there should be a picture of Ganesh ji and Laxmi ji. We need efforts to make the Indian economy stronger, but we also need the blessings of gods and goddesses," he said.While Laxmi is the goddess of prosperity, Lord Ganesh is believed to solve all our 'vighnas' (problems), Kejriwal said."We are not asking for printing fresh currency, but all the new currency that gets printed, this should be implemented. Eventually, the circulation of these notes will increase," he said.As the yesteryear villain Ajit (“the loin”) would say: smart boy.Soon another AAP leader, Atishi, took the battle to the BJP camp:“BJP leaders can hate Mr. Kejriwal but why hate Hindu deities Lakshmi and Ganesh? Do you not want the blessings of our gods to be with the people of the country? I humbly request leaders of the BJP not to oppose this noble proposal. It is not just a proposal from Arvind Kejriwal, but is the proposal of 130-crore citizens of this country.”I don't remember when I (among them aforementioned 130-crore citizenry) signed up for this proposal, as Atishi suggested. There's something to be said about how times change people. A person whose last name ‘Marlena' was derived from her family's belief in the Marxist-Leninist strand of godless communism is now asking for deities to be put on currency notes as a policy measure. I guess this is how things roll in politics. Keeping an open mind, I looked around for evidence correlating having Lakshmi Ji and Ganesh Ji on currency notes with economic growth anywhere in the world. I didn't make much headway. No developed nation has ever had them on its notes. Indonesia did issue 20,000 Rupiah notes from 1998-2005 with Ganesh Ji on them, but it was discontinued in 2008. The Indonesian economic growth during those intervening years was nothing to write about. I also came across a few Devdutt Pattnaik videos on Lakshmi Ji and yajman and how the yajman must make sure she doesn't leave them. Very compelling stuff. Considering he was with the Future group during those days and it has since gone into bankruptcy, I'm not sure it helped much there too. The bottom line, there isn't a lot of academic literature out there to help with the Kejriwal thesis.The AAP move has spawned numerous opinion pieces, of course. Some have accused them of soft Hindutva (a unique Indian term like ‘mild lathicharge') and being a ‘B team' of the BJP. Others have lamented the loss of idealism in politics. And then some think it is the pragmatic way for Kejriwal to turn the tables on the BJP and nothing more should be read into it. Well, who knows? I think it is helpful to examine this in the context of public choice theory. There are three conclusions one can draw from this, which I will elaborate here.Firstly, we must acknowledge that any political system, particularly a democracy, rewards a politician who appears to be doing the right things. Now, what's the ‘right thing' is defined by the moral standards prevailing at a particular time in that society. Most politicians will try to do what is considered good by the people. But moral standards aren't constant. They change with time. An astute politician, therefore, needs to be morally flexible to change according to what's considered good at a point in time in society. Moral rigidity might be good for philosophers and idealists but not for politicians. There's no incentive for a politician to question the prevailing moral standards. A rare politician who does that is playing a high stake game. They often lose. And a politician who loses is worthless. The conventional moral standard prevailing now in India allows Kejriwal to make a statement like this. Anyone in India can now position their bad-faith actions or beliefs in a way that they fit this conventional standard. Politicians are power-hungry. Their incentives are aligned that way. A singular pursuit of these incentives separates a good politician from the bad one. It makes them sociopaths, but that's an unfortunate side effect they learn to live with over time. The question in India today shouldn't be why Kejriwal is making such bizarre demands. The real question is what does it say about our society that politicians can make such demands in the garb of what is good or right for the society. Secondly, there's this belief that democracy, with its periodic elections, changes in the mood of the people and a system of checks and balances can temper this power lust of the politicians and channel it for the good of society. In this view, Kejriwal (or any another politician, really) is making these statements to do well in some elections (Gujarat?), but once he's in power, his true moral self will be back, and that will be good for the society. He's got to play the game, you see. There are two problems I see with this thesis. One, it assumes that the conventional moral standards of society are permanent and any number of such statements don't change them. Once the gains from such a statement are realised, society, like some kind of a memory foam, will remember its original shape and go back to demanding what's right for it. This is optimistic and isn't borne out by history. Two, it also assumes that a politician who gets positive returns from this approach will not continue doing so in an ever-spiraling escalation down this path. That will be an illogical option for any power-hungry politician who doesn't like to lose. He would like to keep doing more of the same if the returns don't diminish. This isn't about what's right. It is about ensuring he gets the power to do what he thinks is right in the larger scheme of things. Politicians are plain old opportunists. This is why I don't understand how any logical mind can have ‘tribal loyalty' to a particular political party.Thirdly, some of you may ask this. On the one hand, we advocate free markets, where we believe that individual incentives come together spontaneously for everyone to benefit. On the other, I'm making a case that in the political marketplace, individual incentives don't work for the overall good. How do I square this? Well, for one, there is a fundamental difference between a businessman (to use a gendered term) and a politician. The businessman has the belief and the incentives (long and short term) to maximise profit. He might couch it with good intentions in his public statements because of his bias for social desirability. This bias won't change his actions, though, because he's a rational actor. He might say something against his conviction but he will do exactly what will maximise his incentives. In the case of a politician, this might play out differently. The social desirability bias can, and often does, change their immediate actions in a manner that's different from their long-term incentives. Not only will he speak against his conviction to be more accepted, he might also act in the same manner. The Kejriwal statement is a good example of this. Also, history has shown that voters are different from consumers. Voters get swayed by emotions, tribal loyalties, affiliations and demagoguery. Consumers might be swayed temporarily, but soon rationality takes over. A good example of this distinction is evident in the film business in India. Over the past few years, the incentive to make films that portray some glorious Hindu heritage without historical basis was quite high. This led to a steady pipeline of films with ever-increasing religious jingoism and ramping up of Hindu ethno-nationalist pride. Yet, within a relatively short period, the consumers have seen through this ‘formula', and the recent box office rejection of these films bears testimony to this. Free markets have corrections built in because the assumption of rational actors largely holds. That doesn't work for the political marketplace.At a broader political level, Kejriwal's statement is an interesting reflection of how the political class is reading society now. Conceptually, there are two possible approaches to contend with the formidable politics of Hindutva. One option is to counter it with the diversity of thoughts and iconographies within Hinduism to deny a monolithic, Abrahamic version of the religion that Hindutva desires to apply to all its adherents. This diversity or internal divisions that often cancelled each other out in electoral politics was considered a societal default position. There wasn't much to do to change it, except to get the electoral arithmetic right and capture power. That default is changed now and you could try to bring that back. That's one play in the current political landscape. The other option is to join the Hindutva politics bandwagon, raise new issues, however bizarre and peddle those optics to the public. The goal isn't to outdo the original Hindutva masters. Pursuing that would be folly. The idea is to make the Hindutva plank par for the electoral course in a manner that voters no longer find it necessary enough to make it a part of their voting calculus. If everyone is on to it, it no longer is a differentiator. It is clear now that the political class is giving up on the first option. There will be greater convergence on the second option. The underlying belief among them seems to be that one can retrace the steps back after having used the second option opportunistically. That's what those supporting Kejriwal believe. I'm not so sanguine.   Postscript: Pratap Bhanu Mehta articulates the fundamental fallacy of an either/or formulation in making these choices in his excellent column in the Indian Express: ‘Why it's wrong to say that Hinduism is a product of colonialism'. He writes:If the Hindutva project is to homogenise and centralise Hinduism, the answer to that cannot be the historically ill-founded and philosophically inept strategy of denying the historical existence of Hinduism altogether. Or worse, to imagine that pre-modern Hinduism is simply an endless proliferation of sects, walled up, with few interconnections and not dependent on a shared cosmology, social system, or even intellectual concerns. It is to reduce Hinduism to simply an aesthetic heteroglossia, and not take seriously any of its imaginative constructions, intellectual endeavours or practices. If Hindutva uses identity to erase diversity, it is also important to avoid the opposite fallacy: To use diversity to deny the fact that the diverse parts may also be parasitic on referencing a larger whole, and common canons of contestation.     India Policy Watch #2: The Tyranny of Context in Electoral SystemsInsights on domestic policy issues — Pranay KotasthaneIsrael voted for the fifth time in four years earlier this week. The former PM Benjamin Netanyahu is set to come back once the arduous coalition-building talks reach another precarious consensus. Opinion pieces routinely refer to this process of coalition stitching in Israel as “horse-trading”. Meanwhile, the vote share of the extreme right-wing party Religious Zionists has more than doubled, and they will now demand their pound of flesh in the government formation talks. One aspect of the Israeli political system should interest many Indians. Unlike India, Israel follows the List Proportional Representation (PR) system. This system optimises for the proportional conversion of vote share into equivalent seat share. People vote for a party, not a candidate. All parties with a vote count above a minimum threshold (3.25% currently) are sure to have their representatives in the Knesset. India follows the First Past the Post (FPTP) system. Voters vote for a candidate. The one who polls the most votes wins. The parties fielding the losing candidates get zero seats, even if they poll just one vote lesser than the winning candidate's party in every constituency. The disproportionality between the vote share and seat share is a feature of this system, not a bug. So a party with a 30 per cent vote share might be able to win a majority of seats and form a government. Now, one is sure to come across this statement in casual conversations about elections in India: “the root cause of unfair electoral representation is that India follows the primitive FPTP. We should instead move on to a ‘fairer' Proportional Representation (PR) system, one in which the legislature represents the true vote shares.” But the lived experiences of Israel's (and earlier, Italy's) PR system show it's riddled with problems too. In this article, I explain why PR is an overrated solution to India's problems with electoral representation.Issue 1: The Purpose of an Electoral SystemA PR system can be perfectly representative and yet utterly dysfunctional. The proponents of the PR system are right when they say that it is fairer than FPTP in translating vote shares into seat shares. By design, it will have another positive effect of having representation of many more political parties in the legislature. At the same time, another inescapable feature of the PR system is post-election coalition-building, in which many fringe parties hold all the aces. Israel's recent electoral struggles are a case in point. Many smaller extremist parties are openly demanding specific ministerial posts as a precondition for their support to Netanyahu. In a democracy that is 120 times bigger than Israel, this problem of unstable and unworkable coalitions could get amplified. A government would be formed by a coalition of 20-30 parties, and the smaller partners will have disproportional leverage. Fewer governments will complete their full term. Israel has had 25 elections to the Knesset thus far, and only on nine occasions has the government completed or come closer to completing the four-year term. Confronting the trade-off between fairness in translating vote shares to seat shares and effectiveness in creating governments that can perform is inevitable. And I'm not sure if the PR system in India can strike the right balance. I spoke with a friend who understands India's polity much better than me. In his view, the fundamental goal of an electoral system is not necessarily proportional representation but to render a government legitimate. And on that count, Indian governments elected using the FPTP system have been broadly accepted by the Indian electorate after the elections. The current government is testing the limits of this acceptance, but its legitimacy to govern is not under serious question yet.Issue 2: The Party vs the LegislatorIn a PR system, the legislator is virtually a rubber stamp, as candidates vote for parties, not specific candidates. The political party is at the front and centre of the system, unlike in an FPTP system where people vote for individuals to represent them. In the Indian context, political parties are an already unhealthily powerful institution which has accreted more power through instruments such as the anti-defection law and opaque electoral bonds. Switching to a PR system would break even the modicum of connection between legislators and the electorate. Issue 3: The Fringe as the CentreIn a divided polity such as India's, successful political parties have no option but to cater to a broad section of the electorate to win the 30-40 per cent vote share. In a PR system, parties have no incentive to appeal to a broad section of the electorate. As long as they can win the votes of a narrow group, they are assured of seats, which would be enough to make them “king-makers”. Moreover, as the Israel experience has repeatedly shown, a PR system can legitimise small, extremist parties, a result India definitely doesn't need at this time.These three issues highlight that the PR system might make us worse off. Of course, this debate between PR and FPTP is not new. Some countries, such as Germany, have tried a mixed-member system in which voters cast one vote for their legislator (who has to qualify through FPTP) and another for a party list (which then translates to seats on a proportional basis). But one thing's for sure. Every alternative is path-dependent and not without drawbacks. The unthinking support for shifting to PR at the margins is a specific case of a general phenomenon I call the ‘tyranny of context'. The existing familiar system appears unworkable in this phenomenon because we know its pitfalls too well. On the other hand, a reform from another context appears attractive because we don't understand it at all.Changing to a PR system is unlikely to result in better governance outcomes. On some parameters, it might make things worse. Ambedkar had famously warned: “However good a Constitution may be, if those who are implementing it are not good, it will prove to be bad. However bad a Constitution may be, if those implementing it are good, it will prove to be good.”What he said of the Constitution also seems to apply to the electoral system. It's better to look for solutions within the constraints of the FPTP system, perhaps. What do you reckon?PolicyWTF: Abnormal Bovine MovementThis section looks at egregious public policies. Policies that make you go: WTF, Did that really happen? - Pranay KotasthaneThis headline in the Deccan Herald caught my attention: Online pass permit to be mandatory for cattle transport in Karnataka: The new cattle pass permit system will include transport certificate, ownership document and veterinary first-aid equipment.Let that sink in. If you own a cow and want to transport it to another place 15 km or more away, you need to first get appropriate blessings from the Animal Husbandry Veterinary Services Department manifested as an online cattle pass permit. Never to miss a revenue opportunity, the owner of the transporting vehicle also has to pay a fee to obtain the permit. Plus GST. There's a backstory to these absurd rules. In January 2021, the state government passed the Karnataka Prevention of Slaughter and Preservation of Cattle Act, imposing a blanket ban on cattle slaughter. One of the sections of the Act prohibited the transport of cattle for slaughter. But, of course, cattle need to be transported for reasons other than slaughter. And hence, the online permit will now ascertain that the movement is for a bonafide reason.That Act also gives the Police the power to search and seize if they have reason to believe any violations have occurred. It would be funny if it weren't so tragic that precious state capacity is being expended on bovine transport controls in one of the country's best states.

In this episode, we narrate the story of how Lord Ganesh incarnated in the form of Vighnaharta Avataar to end the atrocities of Mamtasur.  Once Goddess Parvati laughed out loud while sitting with her friends. From this laughter, there was a human born whom she named Mamtasur.  Goddess Parvati taught him to pray to Lord Ganesha to fulfill all his desires. Mamtasur went to a forest where he met some demons and became friends with them. He did severe penance and finally, when Lord Ganesha appeared in front of him, he asked for his blessings to remove all obstacles in his way during the war. After this, he was declared demon king and was also married to a demon princess. Then Mamtasur waged a terrible war against the gods and Lord Ganesh has to intervene to stop him.

I have sung a medley of some of my favourite sacred Sanskrit Mantras invoking the Divine. Starting with the popular prayer to Lord Ganesh, remover of obstacles, who allows all tasks to be accomplished, the medley includes selected mantras for blessings, universal well-being and protection addressed to the Mother Goddess, the powerful Gayatri Mantra praying for the Divine Light to illuminate our minds and souls, the Karpoorgauram Mantra invoking Lord Shiv which especially releases the devotee from the fear of Death, and the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra also invoking Lord Shiv as He who bestows health and well-being, grants victory over Death and liberation from suffering.

In the twelfth story of this podcast, we narrate the story of how Lord Ganesh incarnated in the form of Vakratund to end the atrocities of demon Matsrasur.  There was a demon named Matsrasur who was a devotte of Lord Shiva and did hard penance to get a boon from Lord Shiva. After that, he was declared the Kind of Demons, and then Matsrasur attacked the three kingdoms and started to rule over them. When demi-gods were upset, they were asked by Sage Dattatrey to worship the Vakratund form of Lord Ganesh. And in this form, Lord Ganesh stepped in to end the unjust rule of the demon Matsrasur.

Still Waiting is a story about searching for understanding.

In the fifth story of this podcast, we narrate the story of how Lord Ganesha lost one of his tooth and came to be known as Ek Dant Ganesh. One day, Lord Parshuram visited Kailash Parvat in order to meet Lord Shiva and seek his blessings. Lord Ganesh was watching over the palace and didn't allow him to enter in as per Mahadev's orders as he was resting. This led to a massive fight between the two and when Lord Parshuram used Mahadev's axe, Ganesh took the blow on one of his tooths and ended up losing it. Since then, he is called as Ek Dant Ganesh.

In the fourth story of this podcast, we narrate the story of how Lord Ganesha went on to become the first revered god. One day, all the gods started fighting as to who should be the first revered god by humans. In this, they ended up seeking inputs from Lord Shiva who set up a competition in which the first person to circumvent the Earth and be back will be the winner. While all the other gods went literally to take a circle of the world, Lord Ganesh took a circle around his parents and told everyone that his parents are his entire world. He has thus crowned the winner and given the title of first revered god.

In the second story of this podcast, we narrate the story of how Ganesh got the elephant face. The day after Lord Ganesh's birth, Goddess Parvati decided to take a rest and asked Ganesh to guard the palace. When Lord Shiva tried to enter, he was stopped by Ganesh. What followed was a big fight involving all the gods and goddesses, till at last Lord Shiva himself stepped forward to fight and severed Ganesh's head. When Goddess Parvati challenged his bravery for fighting with a child, Lord Shiva realized his mistake and asked for a new head to be brought. His devotees brought the head of an elephant which was then put on Ganesh to bring him back to life.

In the first story of this podcast, we narrate how Lord Ganesh was born.  Once, when Goddess Parvati was upset that no one on Kailash parvat valued her orders the most, she was advised by two of her confidantes, Jaya and Vijaya, to build a boy from herself and then bring it to life. That boy when he came alive, turned out to be Lord Ganesh, a devoted son of Mata Parvati.   If you like the show, support us by becoming a patron on this link: https://www.patreon.com/chimesradio  Visit our website to know more:  https://chimesradio.com   Download FREE Chimes Radio mobile app:  http://onelink.to/8uzr4g   Connect to us on our social handles to get all content updates: https://www.instagram.com/vrchimesradio/   https://www.facebook.com/chimesradio/   Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/chimesradio See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we continue our journey into mantra with Day 3 of Deva Premal & Miten's 21-Day Mantra Meditation Journey. This week we'll explore Lord Ganesha, one of the most loved Gods in Hinduism. In most households in India, a new task begins with a prayer to Lord Ganesh. His name has become synonymous with […] The post New Beginnings first appeared on New World Kirtan > Calming Chants for a Crazy World.

Lord Ganesh has always been there for me to steady my mind and open the proper doors as I evolved and progressed. He never ever failed me. He was always there for me when I needed Him. I have to just think of His form to contact His ever-present mind. He was listening, though He would never speak back but always took into His vast mind my prayer and slowly worked it out. I chanted these Mantras before Beginning a Journey, a New Job, or before Entering into any New Contract or Business, before starting any New Healing, all impediments were removed and my endeavors were crowned with success.

In this episode we discuss how to read tarot or oracle cards. Tarot card reading is a form of divination with a long and storied past. Once belonging to carnival side shows it has reemerged in recent years as a useful tool for those on the spiritual path. However, as with all forms of divination it is not without its perils. The cards most tarot readings will range from the random, useful, to the misleading. The accuracy and usefulness of the cards will depend on the clarity of the one doing the reading. It is also important to have a good deck that has positively oriented and useful guidance. The two main tools in tarot reading are the intuition of the reader and the deck. Intuition is something that is cultivated over time through effective spiritual practices. It also becomes stronger with use. So, using tarot cards may be a useful way to develop your intuitive abilities. During a tarot reading a metaphysical web of connection is formed between the reader, the deck, the querent, and the possibility probability vortexes of the future. The deck serves as an interface in the web of connection that can be used to gain information and clarity. Clearing the Deck When working with tarot or oracle cards it is first important to select a deck, then energetically clear it and yourself before the reading. I invoke the violet flame to purify the deck and myself before a reading. You may also find it useful to burn incense such as sage or palo santo. This helps reduce interference and creates a blank canvas for the reading. Connect with Spirit The next step is to connect with spirit. This is the most important step in the process because the success of the reading depends on the strength of the reader's connection with spirit. With awareness focused at the third eye I usually invoke Lord Ganesh and ask that he clear the path to my higher self. When I connect with my higher self I ask for divine assistance to protect my connection with spirit during the reading. If the connection to spirit is unstable or not protected then the reading will be random at best and misleading at worst. This is when bad tarot reading can do more harm than good. Pulling the Cards Once connected to spirit you may shuffle the deck and ask spirit your query. It is useful to have a layout in mind before asking for cards. Using a layout will usually give you a more focused and accurate reading. Every tarot deck includes suggested layouts. Use one that resonates and keep it in mind as you do your reading. As you shuffle the cards remain connected to spirit and ask for the first card which might be the issue at play or a representation of the querent. As you shuffle the cards you may find your hands have a mind of their own, and you may find that one or more cards have more energy or “heat” around them. This sort of sensitivity comes with practice and cannot be rushed. Until you have this level of sensitivity your results are likely to be quite random. After pulling a card that is speaking to you confirm with spirit this is the card you were asking for. Over time you should be able to get at least a “yes” or “no” from spirit and will likely get more information as you continue to develop your intuition. Once you have selected a card put it down, shuffle the deck and pull the next card in the layout repeating the process. Interpreting the Reading The meaning of each card will be relative to its position in whatever layout you use. Read the meaning of each card in the guide that comes with the tarot deck and note whatever stands out. I like to make notes in a notebook for each card and contemplate the cards before sitting down and writing out an interpretation.   A good tarot deck will give useful guidance even if the cards are relatively random. However, as you refine your intuition you will become more accurate and less random with your readings. Over time you will develop confidence and faith in your ability to use this divination method. But don't let divination become a crutch. The cards and stars may help us gain clarity but are no substitute for our own discernment. These things are but tools to assist us with accessing the wisdom of our own being. When the information is in it is up to us to decide how you use it. #tarot #intuition #practicalmysticism

In every nano second we have the opportunity to dissolve, expand and simply flow unhindered, beyond the limited mind and into the cosmic consciousness always. In this podcast Lord Ganesh and the simply blooming team in Budai share a constant flow in transforming the molecular structures that are happening through source energy - cosmic conscious always. In this Gaia is transforming its molecular structure and to those of us who are consciously communicating to nature as nature interconnecting with a flow in any given nano second elevating the sound vibration in frequencies of light the 'kanyini - connectedness' is focused and clarifying and as the journey continues, details simply align and contribute to the state of wellbeing, dissolve constantly to allow a continued state of elevating and connectivity to simply 'BE' For myself, I simply LOVE nature and all it embodies, but most of all I love the communicative nature that senses my sound, connects me to the vastness of what nature IS within pure presence, the kindness but also the depths that keeps simply continues to deepen as I grow. Communicating directly with plants is beyond calling it a name ( and yes when sharing what plant identification, name calling is often served in some way), however when I have sat at the base of the oldest tree and felt the embodied energy engulf me and become one then all simply IS. There are many indigenous people and in this context the term 'indigenous' relates to all who are the kanyini - connectedness who can consciously communicate to Gaia - nature, whilst others are still finding there way, opening up to what is possible then check out the following if you so feel the resonance: Link Shares: www.monicagagliano.com https://youtu.be/xk0-yebNA_o Thank you for listening but most of all thank you for being present.

Be the change that you want to be is allowing your resonance to rise and shine. In this podcast Ganesh navigates our neural pathwaves to awaken our already conscious awareness of the muladhara flow in being able to manifest what we desire as earthed cosmic beings. We are so capable in manifesting, yet we forgot how vast and creative we truly are in harmonic flow. 2021 is an amazing opportunity for realignment of a flow that is connected to nature, aligned with infinite harmonic soundless to sound frequency vibrations. In the coming year Lord Ganesh and others will be rising and radiating through the dance of the elements beyond what is currently understood within the gamma frequency, so allow the clearing of what was and is no longer relevant, freeing up 'space' in your flow to grow, grow, grow.

→ English Ganesha - God of New Beginnings, Success and Wisdom Lord Ganesha is one of the most popular Gods in our Hindu culture. He is known to be the destroyer of obstacles and devotees worship him at the onset of any important work. He is one of the most distinctive Gods with an elephant head and a human body. Ganesha is the son of Shiva and Parvati and is the brother of Kartikeya and Ashok Sundari. He is also the God of prosperity and fortune. There are several stories in regards to his birth. In one of the stories he is born from Shiva and Parvati in a forest. Parvati was elated after her son's birth. She invited all the Gods to come and see the child's face but forgot to call Lord Shani. That is why Shani's evil eye fell on him and his head was burnt. This is when Lord Shiva replaces his head with an elephant head. In the second story Shiva and Pravati visit a forest and happen to see an elephant couple joyfully playing with each other. Lord Shiva and Parvati also take forms of elephant and decide to stay in the forest for a while. During their stay in the forest Lord Ganesh is born. This story is the most popular story about Ganesha's birth. Once Goddess Parvati and her friends Jaya and Vijaya were bathing in her apartment. Parvati had asked Nandi to stand outside the house and guard it. She told him not to allow anyone to enter until they finished bathing. However Shiva came unexpectedly at the door. Poor Nandi requested Shiva not to enter the house but Shiva did not listen. He entered the house. Parvati was furious after that. She wanted a personal guard now who will not let anyone enter the house without her permission not even Shiva. This is when she created Ganesha out of the dirt she rubbed off during her bath. She created a very handsome boy and gasped in joy looking at her son. Ganesha asked what shall he do for his mother. Parvati asked him to be a guard and stand at the entrance. She told him not to allow anyone. Shiva again turned up unexpectedly and wanted to enter the house. Lord Ganesha didn't let him. Shiva did not know then that he was created by Parvati and thought him to be some random person. Lord Ganesh also didn't know that Shiva was Parvati's husband. He did not allow Shiva to enter the house. Shiva turned angry and the fire from his third eye burnt Ganesha's head. When Parvati saw this she turned furious. Her rage and anger started burning the whole Universe. To calm her down and restore balance in the Universe Lord Shiva makes Ganesha alive again by replacing his head with an elephant's head. Lord Shiva was guilty and apologized for his anger. He then declared Ganesha as the chief of all Gods. He announced that all the worship and rituals should only begin by praying to Lord Ganesha first. Only after worshipping him the prayers would reach other Gods. Ganesha is also known as the God of intellect. Once Ganesha and Kartikeyan argued who will marry first. This is when their parents Shiva and Parvati decided to conduct a competition among them. They told both of them that whoever goes around the entire world and reaches Kailasha first will be the first one to marry. Lord Kartikeyan immediately left Kailasha with the aim of covering the Universe first. However Lord Ganesha just circled his parents 7 times and said he has won the race. When Parvati and Shiva asked he said that it was written in Shastras that circling your parents 7 times is as good as moving through the whole world. Lord Shiva was impressed with his intellect and he won the race. Hence he was married to two beautiful sisters Buddhi (embodiment of Wisdom and intellect) and Siddhi (Embodiment of spiritual growth and success). He later had two sons from them Kshema (prosperity) from Siddhi and Labha (Fortune) from Buddhi. Lord Ganesha is portrayed as a half Elephant and half-human god. He is shown to have a pot belly which indicates that he is fond of eating. Modak is his favorite sweet and is offered to him during his worship. He s shown riding his divine vehicle Rat which signifies swiftness. However Ganesha is shown having only one tusk. There are different stories on this as well. Let us discuss a few. In one of the stories Ganesha defeats a demon named Gajamukh and loses his tusk while fighting him. Gajamukh had become invincible after taking boon from Shiva. He started misusing his powers. That is when Shiva asked Ganesha to fight him. Ganesha won the battle however lost one of his tusks during the fight. Ganesha is also the one who wrote the famous Hindu epic Mahabharata. Rishi Ved Vyas approached Ganesha requesting him to write Mahabharata on his behalf while he recites it to him. Ganesha agreed however gave him one condition that he should not stop even for a second while reciting. Vyasa agreed however he also put a condition that Ganesha needs to understand first whatever he is writing and then move ahead to the next stanza. Ganesha also agreed. Vyasa started reciting and didn't stop even once. He was so fast that Ganesha's pen broke while penning down the story. Ganesha realized his mistake that he underestimated the sage's intellect. To apologise Ganesha broke one of his tusks, and started writing with that as a gesture of respect. Ganesha Chaturthi or Vinayaka Chaturthi is one of the most celebrated festivals in India and is celebrated with full passion and vigor. It is celebrated as Ganesha's birthday. → Hindi गणेश - नई शुरुआत, सफलता और ज्ञान के देवता भगवान गणेश हमारी हिंदू संस्कृति में सबसे लोकप्रिय भगवानों में से एक हैं। उन्हें बाधाओं का नाश करने वाला माना जाता है और भक्त किसी भी महत्वपूर्ण कार्य की शुरुआत में उनकी पूजा करते हैं। वह हाथी के सिर और मानव शरीर के साथ सबसे विशिष्ट देवताओं में से एक है। गणेश शिव और पार्वती के पुत्र हैं और कार्तिकेय और अशोक सुंदरी के भाई हैं। वह समृद्धि और भाग्य के देवता भी हैं। उनके जन्म के संबंध में कई कहानियां हैं। एक कहानी में वह एक जंगल में शिव और पार्वती से पैदा हुए हैं। पार्वती को उनके पुत्र के जन्म के बाद समाप्त कर दिया गया था। उसने सभी देवताओं को आमंत्रित किया कि वे बच्चे का चेहरा देखें और भगवान शनि को बुलाना न भूलें। इसी कारण शनिदेव की बुरी नजर उन पर पड़ी और उनका सिर जल गया। यह तब है जब भगवान शिव अपने सिर को हाथी के सिर के साथ बदलते हैं। दूसरी कहानी में शिव और प्रावती एक जंगल में जाते हैं और एक हाथी जोड़े को खुशी-खुशी एक दूसरे के साथ खेलते हुए देखते हैं। भगवान शिव और पार्वती भी हाथी का रूप लेते हैं और थोड़ी देर के लिए जंगल में रहने का फैसला करते हैं। उनके वन में रहने के दौरान भगवान गणेश का जन्म हुआ है। यह कहानी गणेश के जन्म के बारे में सबसे लोकप्रिय कहानी है। एक बार देवी पार्वती और उनके दोस्त जया और विजया अपने अपार्टमेंट में स्नान कर रहे थे। पार्वती ने नंदी को घर के बाहर खड़े होकर पहरा देने को कहा था। उसने उससे कहा कि जब तक वे स्नान समाप्त नहीं कर लेते, तब तक किसी को भी प्रवेश नहीं करने दिया जाएगा। हालांकि शिव अप्रत्याशित रूप से दरवाजे पर आए। बेचारी नंदी ने शिव से घर में प्रवेश न करने का अनुरोध किया लेकिन शिव ने बात नहीं मानी। वह घर में घुस गया। इसके बाद पार्वती उग्र हो गईं। वह अब एक निजी रक्षक चाहती थी जो किसी को भी शिव की अनुमति के बिना घर में प्रवेश नहीं करने देगा। यह तब है जब उसने अपने स्नान के दौरान गंदगी से गणेश को बनाया था। उसने एक बहुत सुंदर लड़का बनाया और अपने बेटे को देखकर खुशी में झूम उठी। गणेश ने पूछा कि वह अपनी मां के लिए क्या करेंगे। पार्वती ने उन्हें एक गार्ड बनने और प्रवेश द्वार पर खड़े होने के लिए कहा। उसने उसे किसी को भी अनुमति नहीं देने के लिए कहा था। शिव फिर से अप्रत्याशित रूप से बदल गए और घर में प्रवेश करना चाहते थे। भगवान गणेश ने उन्हें जाने नहीं दिया। शिव को तब पता नहीं था कि वह पार्वती द्वारा बनाए गए थे और उन्हें कुछ यादृच्छिक व्यक्ति मानते थे। भगवान गणेश भी नहीं जानते थे कि शिव पार्वती के पति थे। उन्होंने शिव को घर में प्रवेश नहीं करने दिया। शिव क्रोधित हो गए और उनकी तीसरी आंख से आग ने गणेश के सिर को जला दिया। जब पार्वती ने देखा तो वह उग्र हो गईं। उसके गुस्से और गुस्से ने पूरे ब्रह्मांड को जलाना शुरू कर दिया। ब्रह्मांड को शांत करने और संतुलन बहाल करने के लिए भगवान शिव ने अपने सिर को हाथी के सिर से बदलकर गणेश को फिर से जीवित कर दिया। भगवान शिव दोषी थे और अपने गुस्से के लिए माफी मांगी। उन्होंने तब गणेश को सभी देवताओं के प्रमुख के रूप में घोषित किया। उन्होंने घोषणा की कि सभी पूजा और अनुष्ठान केवल भगवान गणेश से प्रार्थना करके शुरू होने चाहिए। उसकी पूजा करने के बाद ही प्रार्थना अन्य देवताओं तक पहुँचती थी। गणेश को बुद्धि के देवता के रूप में भी जाना जाता है। एक बार गणेश और कार्तिकेयन ने तर्क दिया कि कौन पहली शादी करेगा। यह तब है जब उनके माता-पिता शिव और पार्वती ने उनके बीच एक प्रतियोगिता आयोजित करने का फैसला किया। उन्होंने उन दोनों से कहा कि जो कोई भी पूरी दुनिया में घूमता है और कैलाशा पहुंचता है वह शादी करने वाला पहला व्यक्ति होगा। लॉर्ड कार्तिकेयन ने पहले यूनिवर्स को कवर करने के उद्देश्य से कैलाश को तुरंत छोड़ दिया। हालाँकि भगवान गणेश ने सिर्फ 7 बार अपने माता-पिता की परिक्रमा की और कहा कि उन्होंने दौड़ जीत ली है। जब पार्वती और शिव ने पूछा तो उन्होंने कहा कि शास्त्रों में लिखा है कि अपने माता-पिता का 7 बार परिक्रमा करना पूरी दुनिया में घूमने जितना ही अच्छा है। भगवान शिव उनकी बुद्धि से प्रभावित हुए और उन्होंने दौड़ जीत ली। इसलिए उन्होंने दो सुंदर बहनों बुद्धी (बुद्धि और बुद्धि का अवतार) और सिद्धि (आध्यात्मिक विकास और सफलता का अवतार) से शादी की थी। बाद में उनके पास सिद्धि और क्षा (समृद्धि) से दो बेटे हुए। भगवान गणेश को आधे हाथी और आधे मानव भगवान के रूप में चित्रित किया गया है। उसे एक पॉट पेट दिखाया गया है जो दर्शाता है कि वह खाने का शौकीन है। मोदक उनकी पसंदीदा मिठाई है और उनकी पूजा के दौरान उन्हें अर्पित किया जाता है। उन्होंने अपने दिव्य वाहन चूहे की सवारी करते हुए दिखाया जो तेज़ी को दर्शाता है। हालांकि गणेश को केवल एक ही भुजा वाला दिखाया गया है। इस पर भी अलग-अलग कहानियां हैं। आइए हम कुछ चर्चा करें। एक कहानी में गणेश गजमुख नाम के एक राक्षस को हराते हैं और उससे लड़ते हुए अपना टस्क खो देते हैं। शिव से वरदान लेने के बाद गजमुख अजेय हो गया था। उसने अपनी शक्तियों का दुरुपयोग करना शुरू कर दिया। तभी शिव ने गणेश जी से युद्ध करने के लिए कहा। गणेश ने लड़ाई जीत ली, लेकिन लड़ाई के दौरान अपना एक टस्क खो दिया। गणेश वही हैं जिन्होंने प्रसिद्ध हिंदू महाकाव्य महाभारत लिखा था। ऋषि वेद व्यास ने गणेश से संपर्क किया और उनसे महाभारत लिखने का अनुरोध किया, जबकि उन्होंने उसे सुनाया। गणेश ने सहमति व्यक्त की लेकिन उन्हें एक शर्त दी कि वह पाठ करते समय एक सेकंड के लिए भी नहीं रुकें। व्यास ने सहमति व्यक्त की लेकिन उन्होंने यह भी शर्त रखी कि गणेश को जो कुछ भी लिखना है उसे पहले समझना होगा और फिर अगले श्लोक के आगे बढ़ना होगा। गणेश भी सहमत हो गए। व्यास ने सुनाना शुरू किया और एक बार भी नहीं रुके। वह बहुत तेज था

Do you remember your parents/grandparents narrating Ramayana and Mahabharata as a kid? I vividly remember my experience. My dad was very into Mythology and would narrate these tales to me as bedtime stories, and he would always end the stories in creative ways like, 'Well Ram is walking through the forest now, it will take him sometime so lets continue tomorrow'. I'm not sure if it's this curiosity about Indian Mythology that got me excited to talk to Siddharth Naidu who just happened to write a unique article about his take on Lord Ganesh's origin story! Siddharth Naidu is the CEO of an up-and-coming Media House called Voxspace, but more importantly he is an amazing writer and a storyteller. So naturally I was excited to talk to him about story trends in current age cinema and also his take on Indian Mythology. I'm very excited for you guys to listen to this episode!

Hi everyone, thank you so much for tuning into you!! You are all awesome in every sound wave!!!! This audio was brought to you by Lord Ganesh here he circumnavigates a way to tap into the beautiful ‘SPACE’ within your being that allows for total alignment, continually present yet so often we can feel wobbly, unsure, insecure about our choices and often forget to simply BREATHE! Thank you for your comments, thank you for all your shares, we love to feel the flow of PRESENCE ITSELF. Budai Hub Team xox Kindness is YOU.

The latest terminology on yogic flow is ‘supernatural’ over the eons different words, teachers, evolutionist and people generally have conveyed the same messages. We are a symphony of soundless to sound frequency vibrations that have the ability to simply create in any way. Yet so often we get caught up in a state of density even for those that experience samadhi, moksha, bliss that state of conscious awareness always seems to dissipate and so the quest starts again to achieve that state over and over again until it simply Is. Here we traverse only glimpses of what that is, ganesh touches on obstacles that rise up along the pathway, persistently consistent with a true intention to surrender limitations patterning, surrendering past hurts, slights, expressions that limit, letting go of the monkey mind patterning and sheep mentality that is more often than not fear based. But also acknowledging that it is a choice and that what ever your choice is it will always be simply that. Happy journeying. Lord Ganesh

Welcome to our world of playfulness where every moment is unfolding as in many ways a new beginning. This is a brief share instigated by Lord Ganesh, sharing his story on new beginnings, relaxing in your flow, moving through changes in playfulness allowing the stress, apprehension of sharing openly who and what you are that is often kept hidden for fear of .......... Allow the shining light that you are be present as in life it is truly a life that is for you.

Well this podcast is where we have attempted in some small way to answer questions sent to us via email about Budai, the team, sentient beings, Paramahansa Yogananda becomes a presence sharing that he will be co-creating on our patron Budaiblooms community about vastu shastra lightly touch on his take energetically regarding astrology with Lord Ganesh particularly about Jupiter - an energy that is diverse in creativity. Biomimicry, the designs we will share (basic in tools we use in the sketches to begin with) but rich in vibrational triggering, bimonthly we will release different drawings and every other month a series of light videos. We share ever so briefly a snippet of the Desert Sturt Pea Pod Design Series project how in the Riverina earth bag build we utilise the lunar and sun rays that naturally create different light tapestries where in the epicentre so we are incorporating a slitted style glass panel, visualise the eyes of a frog and it hopefully will be in alignment of the shape of the beautiful eye seen in the Queensland green frongs Transcending within biomimicry, lightly glazed over that topic sowing seeds of subsequent podcasts along the unfolding of 20/20. If you resonate with the above then we have so much more that we will dissect in order to go deeper into the energetics of building design, the natural building biology when utilising the patterns that not only nature shares but also what human embodied energy co-creates. As a vast energetic team of collaborators where many stories and organisations were grounded when we were in a more dense frequency, this may or may not be something that you will benefit from, as we come in this now, expressing in the here and now and sharing from right now and flowing onwards. :) Happy travelling.

Now, this has many vibrational flows within this one sentence ‘ Physical Fitness - Aligned Flow In Resonance’. Physical fitness has many tributaries and all are valid, valuable for each person who has their unique defined moments in any particular flow. This podcast was sparked by an experience in Ganesh with and as Lord Ganesh who simply desired to share one flow within one experience, we in no way are defining what physical fitness is, but more about what happens when we are focused, aligned with expressing through creativity. For those who are and have a devoted understanding about the subject of physical fitness, this podcast probably may not be of service to you, however if you resonate with the fun flow of energetic experiences and how it expresses itself within form, constantly changing, accepting, surrendering, allowing and so on. It is one expression through a funny expression within Lord Ganesh being his playful self experiencing density, surrendering and reverting to his all that is.

It was Lord Ganesh, that came up with the theme for this podcast ‘New Beginnings’ not surprising really since it is one of the many things he is know for. This podcast starts with a experience we had and are still moving through right now, leading us to share with Lord Ganesh his take on the very essence of ‘New Beginnings.' He is always presence itself, but when you allow the tuning in to his OM Vibration, his witty sense of humour using a lyrical nature at times will have you laughing at your own sense of seriousness, only to surrender areas of your patterns that just may be holding you back from recognising the beautifully insightful journey you are co-creating. Lots of love in light Isis Buda and Lord Ganesh

Thank you for finding us here in this moment, because it too has now passed. Lord Shiva asked me to do this podcast and I have to say I was a little reluctant to post it, not because it isn’t amazing in it’s humour and ability to laugh within self, but because he titled it YOGA and in a world that often has very set beliefs around the meaning of Yoga, I was more comfortable simply enjoying the expression in an intimate way without posting. But as life is shifting and so too is my work here in Budai, this as Lord Ganesh shared was all part of the flow in the direction I too am journeying and that those who resonate in this will simply be present. So as I got started with Lord Ganesh nestling within my lap having a giggle, Lord Shiva’ s presence flowed standing tall, trident in hand and there it began, as they both flowed the discourse, Ganesh meeting and greeting when the request to connect within the muladhara arose and so it all flowed. This is how the whole podcast unfolded, as Lord Shiva is BIG on going direct connecting one on one to any who desires to be in soundless to sound frequency vibration within the yoga flow. So if this resonates then allow the flow to simply be, as even though you will hear a voice, it will be something altogether that is uniquely for you that will unfold, however in order to receive the most in this podcast, you are required to truly connect directly in source energy. Happy Buddha Is You Namaste Lord Shiva, Ganesh and Isis.

Yoga means union but within that union are infinite tributaries, and this is where this introduction into Yoga with Lord Shiva and family presides. We have created a course based within the Ayurveda Flow of knowledge, wisdom and constantly evolving existence, with exquisite energies such as Lord Shiva, Parvati, Skanda, Ganesh, Hanuman, Krisha and there are more. Ganesh desired a section to be devoted to the art of the Yogi, so Lord Shiva and Parvati along with Skanda came forth and said they too desired to share the joy, wonderment of the energetic flow deep within the cosmic consciousness that could be integrated intimately into daily life. So in this very short and diversified intro we share the ‘jumble’ of concepts and have truly only touched very lightly on what content is yet to be revealed and shared as the journey of the ayurveda yogi unfolds. It is very much about being directly connected consciously, where the students as part of the course create the SPACE to connect with Ganesh, Parvati, Shiva and in their readiness Skanda along with Hanuman and Krishna so we can intertwine their experiences and tailor the course in the required flow from student to cosmic teacher, in this the adventure is enriching, unique to each student yet able to be share by any who pass through along their wondrous grand adventure. If you are interested check out this link for more information on the Lord Ganesh’s course, he is funny, witty, playful, yet focused in everyday. Happy journeying! Budai Team

This podcast is simply a conversation that was sparked between Lord Ganesh and Isis about the constant requirement to ‘label’ & categorise everything until we choose to simply allow the self to ‘BE’. No matter what we choose to participate in life there is always something to simply have a giggle about. Here we share experiences that we ourselves have had along the infinite journey, the playfulness with Ganesh and the primordial OM. Sharing the ‘presence’ and ‘comfort’ each of us can experience when we come home to our self from within, letting go of the worry about what others think or say, but also what limits we place on ourselves. Be in resonance of YOU. Happy journeying. xox

This podcast is insightful, playfully focused on the ‘Dance Of The Elements’ in daily flow self realising how we allow the energy to flow through our human form, the connection to nature, the blockages we can release as we dive deeper into our transparency of existence. Connecting to nature as nature, releasing the fears on all levels of scarcity, threading seamlessly the dispersion of Air, Ether, Fire, Water, Earth naturally as we undulate through daily creations. This podcast is diverse in embodied soundless to sound frequencies Lord Ganesh anchors the wisdom within the vibrations of soundwave dispersions as the journey unfolds. Let’s DANCE! Love In Light Budai Bliss xox

Ayurveda being the science of life in the context of this podcast created in siva within Lord Ganesh and Isis shares the deepening flow of Ayurveda, dissolving belief systems around what is considered to be the ‘human form’ and simply stream within soundless to sound frequencies. A light hearted share designed as preparation for courses run in shiva by Lord shiva and the Budai Team streaming from the soundless. A gentle releasing of locked in belief systems of the ‘what is possible’ only to self realise that their are infinite possibilities and many are in playfulness right now. Sharing the millennial flow that is timeless recognise beyond the need to constantly ‘label’ experiences rather than seeing the label as simply a way to share one expression but able to release the term and simply experience the energetic flow. Here Isis touches base with Egyptian pyramids and the light language that is often called hieroglyphics and briefly shares a small but significant insight as to unlocking the meanings that will only reveal the self in saucha.
