Podcast ONE: 12 de diciembre de 2025 Podast ONE: Cierre de año en One Digital: apagones, continuidad digital, dudas reales sobre IA, The Game Awards y la ruta a CES y al Mundial 2026.#PodcastONE #one_digital #onedigital #OneDigital #tecnología #inteligenciaartificial #gaming #CES #TheGameAwards #Mundial2026 Escucha aquí el Podcast ONE: 12 de diciembre de 2025 YouTube Live One Digital cierra 2025 con apagones resiliencia digital IA y gaming rumbo a CES y el Mundial 2026 Panorama general del episodio El episodio del viernes 12 de diciembre de 2025 funciona como cierre de ciclo: repasa lo vivido durante el año y aterriza temas prácticos de vida digital, consumo tecnológico, videojuegos, movilidad rumbo al Mundial 2026 y dudas crecientes sobre el uso real de la inteligencia artificial en empresas. Inicio de programa y cierre de año Una despedida con enfoque tecnológico El programa abre con un tono de despedida de año: “cerrar ventanas” para abrir lo nuevo y reconocer que 2025 fue intenso en tendencias, consumo y cambios en la forma de publicar y operar en la era digital. Semana cargada de temas Se anticipa que la semana estuvo marcada por noticias de inteligencia artificial, temporada de compras (Cyber Monday, El Buen Fin, Black Friday) y un ambiente de fin de año que influye en decisiones de consumo tecnológico. Apagón en São Paulo y fragilidad de la vida digital Treinta y seis horas sin luz Se narra una “patoaventura” en São Paulo: un periodo prolongado sin electricidad obligó a improvisar para trabajar, publicar y mantener comunicación, pasando por no-break, laptop, tableta y teléfono, hasta quedarse sin energía disponible. Cuando se va la luz también se cae el mundo La experiencia se usa para mostrar un punto básico: sin electricidad, la conectividad se vuelve incierta; y sin conectividad, incluso acciones simples (comunicarse o publicar) se complican. Clima extremo y ciudad no preparada Se menciona la presencia de vientos muy intensos y la caída de árboles como detonante del apagón, con una lectura crítica: las ciudades que no han modernizado infraestructura (por ejemplo, cableado expuesto) quedan más vulnerables ante eventos climáticos fuertes. Guía práctica de continuidad en casa No-break y protección de equipos Se explica por qué un no-break no solo sirve para “seguir trabajando un rato”, sino para proteger equipos cuando el voltaje regresa de forma irregular. Powerbanks con lógica de capacidad Se propone comprar baterías portátiles con base en la capacidad del celular: si un teléfono tiene alrededor de 5,000 mAh, una batería de 10,000 mAh puede dar margen para una o más recargas según pérdidas y uso. Preparación doméstica para contingencias El episodio sugiere adoptar hábitos de preparación: tener energía de respaldo mínima, contemplar necesidades de varias personas en casa y evitar depender de un solo dispositivo. Publicación móvil y herramientas: lo que sí funciona y lo que estorba El celular como herramienta editorial Se subraya que hoy el teléfono puede resolver tareas periodísticas y de publicación, pero se reconocen límites cuando el flujo requiere edición, inserción de elementos y trabajo fino en WordPress. Modo escritorio en Android y fricciones con tableta Se comenta el uso de funciones tipo “modo escritorio” en Android para operar como si fuera una computadora y la diferencia de experiencia al trabajar en un iPad, donde cambian atajos y hábitos. Almacenamiento saturado: la crisis silenciosa de la productividad Quedarse sin espacio en Google y perder control Se relata el problema de saturación de almacenamiento y su impacto en correo, edición de video y ritmo de trabajo: cuando el espacio se termina, incluso recibir mensajes puede volverse incierto. Video y peso real de los archivos Se habla de la tensión entre grabar en 4K y mantener un flujo sostenible: editar y respaldar consume espacio rápido, y la falta de almacenamiento obliga a bajar calidad o depurar material. Discos duros y salto de costos Se comenta la búsqueda de discos externos de alta capacidad y cómo los precios suben cuando se pasa de capacidades comunes a opciones mayores. Alternativas de respaldo y orden digital NAS como nube personal Se presenta la idea de un NAS como alternativa para quienes quieren una “nube propia”, con almacenamiento local escalable y control sobre el respaldo. Servicios gratuitos con límites Se mencionan opciones de nube gratuita y su costo real: anuncios, limitaciones de descarga o calidad y velocidades variables. Depuración de Drive correo y mensajería Se recomienda revisar archivos compartidos vinculados a cuentas, borrar material repetido y no subestimar el peso de historiales de mensajería, especialmente cuando se acumulan imágenes y videos. Telegram como “bodega” informal Se menciona un uso común: enviarse archivos a uno mismo en Telegram como solución práctica para mover o resguardar material cuando urge liberar espacio. Puebla: gastronomía turismo y producción de contenido Visita al Hotel Cartesiano Se cuenta un viaje a Puebla para conocer restaurantes del Hotel Cartesiano y probar menú de temporada, con enfoque en experiencia gastronómica y atención del equipo en Comedor 360 y el restaurante Custodia del chef Alan Sánchez. Producción visual y fotografía nocturna Se describe la toma de fotografías en el centro, la búsqueda de escenas “instagrameables”, y el uso de aplicaciones para ajustar sombras o profundidad en imágenes. Sonoterapia y experiencia auditiva Se narra una sesión con cuencos y la percepción del sonido como algo envolvente, conectándolo con referencias de audio inmersivo y pruebas de audífonos. Efecto de audio tipo “Torbellino”. Mundial 2026: movilidad en Ciudad de México y efectos en turismo Nuevas rutas y transporte dedicado Se menciona un circuito de trolebús con carril exclusivo para conectar zonas de alta concentración (como Chapultepec) con el Estadio Azteca, con el objetivo de reducir tráfico y facilitar traslados masivos. Tren ligero y alternativas Se comenta la ampliación del tren ligero en el corredor Tasqueña–Estadio Azteca y el crecimiento de opciones como teleféricos urbanos en distintos puntos, como parte de un ajuste gradual de movilidad. Seguridad vial y desorden de micromovilidad Se critica el caos en calles y ciclovías: bicicletas y motos invadiendo espacios, conductas irresponsables y riesgos de infraestructura (como coladeras peligrosas) que pueden causar accidentes. Guía de compra: televisiones para el mundial Por qué se disparan las ventas Se plantea que un Mundial empuja el consumo de televisiones y que el mercado empuja tamaños cada vez mayores con precios más accesibles que años atrás. Antes de comprar: espacio y montaje Se recomienda definir dónde irá la televisión, cómo se montará, cómo se ocultarán cables y si el peso y el transporte son viables. Conexiones mínimas para uso real Se sugiere revisar puertos HDMI y USB para conectar consola, receptor o dispositivos adicionales, incluyendo equipos antiguos si el hogar todavía los usa. Android TV y asistentes Se describe el valor de televisiones con Android TV para instalar aplicaciones y reproducir contenido dentro de la misma red, además de asistentes que permiten acciones simples por voz. Dispositivos externos Se menciona que algunas personas prefieren usar equipos externos (como Roku o Apple TV) aun teniendo televisión inteligente, para mantener control y consistencia de aplicaciones. The Game Awards 2025: ganadores anuncios y lectura del evento Desvelo y presión de publicación Se relata la cobertura del evento en horarios complicados, y el reto de publicar rápido sin sacrificar verificación. El gran ganador de la noche En la conversación se afirma que “Clair Obscur: Expedition 33” fue el juego más premiado, llevándose juego del año y varias categorías relevantes, y se comenta el tono “espectáculo” del evento. Categorías y señales de industria Se mencionan categorías como adaptación, juegos con impacto social, accesibilidad y deportes electrónicos, como prueba de que el evento ya es una vitrina industrial, no solo una premiación. Anuncios y marketing Se comentan anuncios como Lego Batman y la conversación alrededor de juegos muy anticipados, mostrando cómo el evento se usa para lanzar avances y reforzar expectativas. Consolas PC y propiedad del juego Qué comprar: consola o computadora Se discute el dilema de regalos: una consola híbrida como Switch 2 puede ser atractiva por portabilidad, pero una computadora puede dar acceso más amplio a catálogo, precios y flexibilidad. Exclusivos y cruce entre plataformas Se plantea que la exclusividad se ha debilitado y que cada vez más títulos terminan llegando a múltiples plataformas, empujando el juego cruzado. Licencias y el “juego rentado” Se critica que en algunos ecosistemas la compra funciona más como una licencia condicionada que como una propiedad permanente, lo que abre el debate sobre acceso a futuro. Inteligencia artificial: avance real y frustración cotidiana Una semana de pelea contra la herramienta Se describe una experiencia de trabajo donde la IA entrega respuestas incompletas, se distrae del encargo o “alucina”, obligando a corregir y repetir instrucciones en vez de ahorrar tiempo. Adopción en empresas y resultados dudosos Se menciona que muchas organizaciones pagan por herramientas de IA sin lograr uso constante en su plantilla y sin poder demostrar beneficios claros en resultados. Riesgo de burbuja y exageración comercial Se comentan lecturas y cifras circulando sobre inversiones y deuda alrededor de infraestructura de IA, con cautela explícita: no se afirma como hecho cerrado, se plantea como tendencia que requiere confirmación en fuentes confiables. Privacidad visas y control de datos Redes sociales y vida digital como requisito Se cuestiona la posibilidad de que trámites migratorios exijan revisar redes sociales y rastros digitales, y se discute el choque con la idea de privacidad y derecho al olvido. Bancos y trazabilidad Se comenta que bancos y gobiernos pueden reconstruir hábitos de vida a partir de movimientos financieros, y se relatan procesos de validación bancaria que piden datos detallados para mantener cuentas activas. Reacciones internacionales pendientes Se señala que una parte clave es cómo reaccionan gobiernos y reguladores, especialmente fuera de Estados Unidos, ante medidas percibidas como intrusivas. Consumo conectividad y notas de industria Buen Fin 2025 y peso de publicidad Se mencionan cifras de comportamiento de compra y el papel de anuncios y redes sociales en decisiones, además de comparaciones entre compras en línea y en tienda. Telmex y Hyper Wi-Fi 7 de Infinitum Se menciona el anuncio de Hyper Wi‑Fi 7 como promesa de mayor capacidad, menor latencia y soporte para muchos dispositivos, con banda de 6 GHz, a la espera de conocer precios y despliegue real. Supercómputo y ciencia aplicada Se comenta una nota sobre una supercomputadora de HPE y usos científicos como simulación, modelos climáticos y análisis de proteínas, como parte del bloque informativo de la semana. Rumbo a CES y forma de cubrir tecnología Adelantos con embargo Se anticipa cobertura desde CES y se menciona que hay productos vistos previamente de marcas como Motorola y Lenovo, pero que algunos detalles no pueden publicarse por embargo. Velocidad contra calidad Se plantea el dilema editorial: publicar rápido frente a producir piezas bien armadas, verificadas y editadas, evitando transmisiones improvisadas con poca información.

ŚB 5.19.16-19In the tract of land known as Bhārata-varṣa, as in Ilāvṛta-varṣa, there are many mountains and rivers. Some of the mountains are known as Malaya, Maṅgala-prastha, Maināka, Trikūṭa, Ṛṣabha, Kūṭaka, Kollaka, Sahya, Devagiri, Ṛṣyamūka, Śrī-śaila, Veṅkaṭa, Mahendra, Vāridhāra, Vindhya, Śuktimān, Ṛkṣagiri, Pāriyātra, Droṇa, Citrakūṭa, Govardhana, Raivataka, Kakubha, Nīla, Gokāmukha, Indrakīla and Kāmagiri. Besides these, there are many other hills, with many large and small rivers flowing from their slopes. Two of the rivers – the Brahmaputra and the Śoṇa – are called nadas, or main rivers. These are other great rivers that are very prominent: Candravasā, Tāmraparṇī, Avaṭodā, Kṛtamālā, Vaihāyasī, Kāverī, Veṇī, Payasvinī, Śarkarāvartā, Tuṅgabhadrā, Kṛṣṇāveṇyā, Bhīmarathī, Godāvarī, Nirvindhyā, Payoṣṇī, Tāpī, Revā, Surasā, Narmadā, Carmaṇvatī, Mahānadī, Vedasmṛti, Ṛṣikulyā, Trisāmā, Kauśikī, Mandākinī, Yamunā, Sarasvatī, Dṛṣadvatī, Gomatī, Sarayū, Rodhasvatī, Saptavatī, Suṣomā, Śatadrū, Candrabhāgā, Marudvṛdhā, Vitastā, Asiknī and Viśvā. The inhabitants of Bhārata-varṣa are purified because they always remember these rivers. Sometimes they chant the names of these rivers as mantras, and sometimes they go directly to the rivers to touch them and bathe in them. Thus the inhabitants of Bhārata-varṣa become purified. The people who take birth in this tract of land are divided according to the qualities of material nature – the modes of goodness [sattva-guṇa], passion [rajo-guṇa], and ignorance [tamo-guṇa]. Some of them are born as exalted personalities, some are ordinary human beings, and some are extremely abominable, for in Bhārata-varṣa one takes birth exactly according to one's past karma. If one's position is ascertained by a bona fide spiritual master and one is properly trained to engage in the service of Lord Viṣṇu according to the four social divisions [brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya and śūdra] and the four spiritual divisions [brahmacārī, gṛhastha, vānaprastha and sannyāsa], one's life becomes perfect.Please feel free to join our Kṛṣṇa Consciousness Telegram group chat (for both prabhujīs and mātājīs): ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://t.me/iskmnews

Kṛṣṇa has this inclination: He is ready to pour out mercy unlimitedly to any personality. We find the key here in Prahlāda Mahārāja, that if one imbibes this mood of service for service, then that's the moment we feel satisfied, but that's also the moment Kṛṣṇa takes notice of us and unleashes an ocean of mercy into our lives. For devotees who realize that this is our eternal relationship, they can't do enough at every second to give to Kṛṣṇa, because ātmānaṁ akhilātmanāṁ—the principle is, He's the soul of our soul. So, it's a practical realization in the end to know the science: sarvopādhi-vinirmuktaṁ tat-paratvena nirmalam hṛṣīkeṇa hṛṣīkeśa- sevanaṁ bhaktir ucyate This is called devotional service (bhakti) when you realize that my senses actually belong to Kṛṣṇa, and everything else belongs to Kṛṣṇa, and therefore I'll use everything in His service. And in the process, we purify our senses. Also, Kṛṣṇa gives us His unlimited mercy, and it never stops; it keeps increasing. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss Samsung's new Galaxy Z TriFold smartphone and how it could compare to Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone. Samsung this week introduced the Galaxy Z TriFold, its first smartphone with two folding sections instead of one. When unfolded, the device presents a 10-inch screen, while the cover display measures 6.5 inches. Samsung says it has minimized visible creasing across the panels. The Galaxy Z TriFold uses an inward-folding design intended to protect the main display. The folding mechanism has been engineered with an alert system that notifies users if the device is being folded incorrectly. Samsung is using a titanium Armor FlexHinge with two differently sized hinges joined by a dual-rail structure. According to the company, this enables a smoother and more stable fold despite uneven panel weight distribution, and increases durability thanks to a thin metal reinforcement that protects the hinge assembly. A third of the unfolded display measures 3.9mm thick, increasing slightly around the triple-lens camera module. The center display section is 4.2mm thick, while the segment containing the side button is 4mm. The device includes a reinforced overcoat atop a shock-absorbing display layer for impact resistance, and an aluminum frame prevents the screens from coming into contact when closed. Samsung has equipped the Galaxy Z TriFold with a 5,600 mAh three-cell battery, with one cell behind each display panel. The company says this is the largest battery it has ever used in a smartphone. The rear camera system includes a 200-megapixel wide camera, a 12-megapixel ultra wide camera, and a 10-megapixel telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. Two 10-megapixel selfie cameras are integrated into the cover display and the main display. The Galaxy Z TriFold supports three portrait-layout apps running side-by-side, multi-window resizing, full-screen video viewing, and a vertical reading mode. Samsung has also added standalone Samsung DeX, enabling up to four workspaces with five apps active simultaneously. Samsung apps have been optimized for the triple-panel layout, and Google's Gemini Live has been optimized as well. The Galaxy Z TriFold launches in Korea on December 12, followed by China, Taiwan, Singapore, and the UAE. It will arrive in the United States in the first quarter of 2026. Pricing has not yet been announced. Meanwhile, recent rumors suggest that Apple's first foldable ‌iPhone‌ will feature an industry-first 24-megapixel under-display camera for the inner display, as well as a Samsung-supplied OLED panel, virtually no crease, a hybrid titanium and aluminum frame, and a 5,400–5,800 mAh battery. Analyst estimates currently place pricing at around $2,400. The device is only expected to include two rear cameras, unlike the TriFold and all of Samsung's book-style foldables. Apple will likely use a wide and an ultra-wide camera, similar to the iPhone 17, while reserving a telephoto camera for the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max. Early information also suggests it will also not be as thin as Samsung's Galaxy Fold 7. We discuss the importance of rear camera set ups on foldables, the rumored price point of Apple's version, and the risk of it falling victim to some of the same pitfalls as the iPhone Air.

El iPhone Air registra una depreciación inusual en pocas semanas. Varios mercados rechazan el formato ultradelgado por limitar batería, cámaras y funciones que sí ofrecen modelos recientes  Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo  El iPhone Air se convirtió en un problema para Apple. En solo diez semanas perdió más valor que cualquier otro iPhone reciente, según el análisis de SellCell. Los compradores están prefiriendo modelos con más batería y cámaras completas. Este comportamiento también llevó a varias marcas en China a detener proyectos de móviles ultradelgados.  La reacción del mercado plantea una duda clara: ¿vale la pena sacrificar funciones por un diseño tan delgado? El diseño ultradelgado complica funciones clave que la gente usa a diario  El iPhone Air nació como un esfuerzo por reducir al máximo el grosor. Su cuerpo de 5,6 mm parecía un avance estético fuerte, pero sus primeras semanas en el mercado mostraron otra realidad. SellCell midió una caída promedio de 44,3 % en su valor. Los modelos de 256 GB y de 1 TB concentran las cifras más marcadas, con depreciaciones superiores a 40 %.  Los iPhone 17, en cambio, pierden menos valor. Los Pro y Pro Max tienen mejor batería, mejor gestión térmica y sistemas de cámara más completos, elementos que los compradores buscan. En esa categoría, el iPhone 17 Pro Max de 256 GB cayó 26,1 %, una cifra mucho menor y estable.  Mientras las curvas de depreciación de los iPhone 17 se estabilizan, la del Air sigue bajando, lo que indica poco interés de reventa y poca demanda sostenida.  El Air compromete funciones importantes para mantener su cuerpo delgado. La batería de 3.149 mAh es menor que la de los modelos recientes, y el sistema de cámara se reduce a un único sensor trasero. También carece de ranura para SIM física y tiene un solo parlante. Estos recortes afectan el uso diario y aumentan la sensación de limitación frente al precio de venta.  Ese precio fue un obstáculo en varios países. En Indonesia, la versión de 256 GB ronda los 1.400 dólares. Los modelos de mayor capacidad se acercan al precio de un iPhone 17 Pro, que ofrece cámara triple y mayor batería. Para muchos compradores, la comparación dejó al Air en desventaja.  En China, el panorama es similar. El teléfono es una herramienta central para pagos y servicios digitales. Allí, marcas como Xiaomi, Oppo y Vivo cancelaron o aplazaron sus propios modelos ultradelgados. Foxconn desmontó líneas de producción del Air y Luxshare dejó de ensamblarlo.  Huawei mantuvo su apuesta con el Mate 70 Air, que logra un balance distinto. Tiene 6,6 mm de grosor, pero conserva batería grande, carga rápida y triple cámara. Para varios analistas, esa combinación muestra que un diseño delgado puede funcionar si no afecta funciones esenciales.  En el resto del mercado, el mensaje es claro. Cuando un teléfono recorta capacidades para verse más delgado, pierde atractivo. Las personas valoran cámaras completas, buena batería, carga rápida y estabilidad en el uso diario. Ese equilibrio mantiene el valor de reventa.  Apple sigue trabajando en un posible Air 2. Las expectativas giran alrededor de cómo va a ajustar el diseño para evitar otra caída de valor. También hay interés por lo que traerá el iPhone 18, que podría reorganizar la familia de modelos. De momento, la gente busca teléfonos equilibrados y eso marca el rumbo de los fabricantes para 2026.  BibliografíaPhoneArenaDigital TrendsMacRumorsCreative BloqDao InsightsQoo Media Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/flash-diario-de-el-siglo-21-es-hoy--5835407/support.Apoya el Flash Diario y escúchalo sin publicidad en el Club de Supporters. 

The whole world has this kind of madness because of krodha or cynicism, and it's self-protective. It's hard for people to entertain the idea that there may be some truth. So Prahlāda Mahārāja here gives what may be the antidote to that. First of all, he describes: "sa tvaṁ hi nitya-vijitātma-guṇaḥ sva-dhāmnā." He's describing the mechanism of the material world. And he's saying that it has various elements that are countable. Then he points back to the cause of all of it, which is the Supreme Independent Person. Prabhupāda puts this parenthetically to show what the purpose of all this analysis is: to come back to the Supreme Independent Person, who, through His external energy, has created the material mind, which is the cause of all suffering in the material world. He describes his experience in this process, or being in the material world, as being crushed—"niṣpīḍyamānam," "I'm being crushed by the Wheel of Time." And then he comes to the ultimate conclusion, which is that now I surrender to you. This is kind of the vulnerability of the person who comes to the conclusion that I'm not the supreme controller. What's more, I'm being crushed by the Wheel of Time, and therefore, Kṛṣṇa, please save me! ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

Fall 122 des Shūmon Kattōshū knüpft mit diesem Ausspruch Buddhas an die Legende zu seiner Geburt an. Dabei wies Buddha selbst immer wieder darauf hin, dass er ein Mensch sei und keine überirdische Gestalt. Er hatte besondere Einsichten, doch diese sind nicht exklusiv. Auch wir können diesen Weg gehen. Im vorliegenden Koan reagiert Zen-Meister Ummon dann auch entsprechend drastisch: Hätte er diesen Moment miterlebt, hätte er Buddha mit einem Stock erschlagen. Auch im Diamant-Sutra heißt es: Wer Buddha in Form oder Stimme sucht, wird ihn nicht finden. Denn äußere Merkmale sind letztlich Täuschungen. Wer aber die zeichenlose Natur der Zeichen erkennt, dem begegnet der Tathāgata. Denn die Wirklichkeit wird nicht in isolierten Formen, sondern im Zusammenhang aller Dinge erkannt. Darauf weist auch das berühmte Koan Mumonkan 6 hin, in dem Buddha eine Blume hochhält. Während die meisten nur eine Blume sehen, erkennen Buddha und Mahākāśyapa, dass diese Blume das ganze Universum enthält. Kompost, Sonne, Regen, Wind, Erde, Zeit – alles wirkt in ihr zusammen. Zu erkennen, dass eine Blume aus Nicht-Blumen-Elementen besteht, bedeutet, die Täuschung getrennter Zeichen zu durchbrechen. Dieses tiefe Schauen ermöglicht es uns, die Begrenztheit unserer Wahrnehmung zu überwinden. Wir erkennen, dass Menschen – selbst Konfliktpartner oder Feinde – Teil desselben Zusammenhangs sind. So kann aus Ablehnung Mitgefühl entstehen. Buddha wird also weder im Körper noch im Mythos gefunden, sondern in uns selbst und in unserem direkten Kontakt mit der Wirklichkeit.

In this episode I am once again joined by Alex W, long term practitioner of Zen, Pragmatic Dharma, and Western Occultism. Alex lays out his ideal curriculum of practices to achieve awakening including a full technique sequence, explanation of the signs of success at each stage, and the various post-awakening paths that are available.

(note: to read the original a calm presence Substack posting click here)It's Thursday November 27th, 2025, at about 10pm. I'm sitting by a fireplace at our cottage in Duhamel Québec and I want to tell you a story called 4%.  When I turned 50 on December 3rd, 2009, I decided to take 50 days off from my work, which was not easy at the time. My goal was to sort through the many boxes of stuff in our basement: letters, sketches, notes, articles, posters, booklets and so on.  At the end of the 50 days I wrote a Facts and Arguments article, ‘I took 50 days of when I turned 50' that published in the Globe and Mail on February 18, 2010 about how and why I got rid of 80% of my archives during those 50 days off. Here are two excerpts from that article: I dug a hole in the snow and spent the next three hours burning the documents, page by page. Sometimes I would hesitate over an item but decided to see the process through. As paper transformed into ash, I internalized the voices and messages frozen in those documents. They will now die with me. I thanked the authors and my collaborators. This felt good and right. I smelled like a forest fire. I started composing music when I was 12 in North Bay and have been active in a number of cultural fields since, including music, arts administration, programming and event production. Like many people, I kept records of my work - photos, recordings, scores, correspondence, programs and essays. I'm not quite sure why I kept it all, but I figured one day I would know. Perhaps it was vanity, but more likely an act of self-preservation.It's 16 years later now and I have no regrets. In fact, as I turn 66 in a few days I'm about to get rid of another 80% or so of the remaining 20% of my archives which leaves me with about 4% of my original belongings and that feels just about right. Why did I do it?  Mostly it's because I don't want to leave a mess for my family when I die but there's another reason…I'm currently taking a course called Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet(ZASP), which is a learning journey to nurture insight, compassion, community, and mindful action in service of the Earth, based on the work of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh and has been developed by the monks at Plum Village in France. One of the course's many teachings refers to the Diamond Sutra, a 9th century Mahāyāna Buddhist text that focuses on concepts of emptiness, reality and wisdom. What caught my attention during the course, and made me think about my archives, was how the Diamond Sutra questions the notions of self (separation), of what it means to be human, of our relations with all living beings and of one's life span. As I processed these teachings, I felt it was a good time to let go of non-essential things. So, what did I get rid of and why? Gone are my cassette and DAT tape collection of field recordings from the 1980's and 1990's. Many of these sounds are in my compositions but the rest have no value. I threw out some back in 2010 but it's now time to let them all go as the tapes fall apart. I create a little ritual to thank the voices recorded before letting them go.  Gone are piles and piles of articles and essays about acoustic ecology, climate change, environmental art and so on. I don't think I'll ever get around to reading them, so I gave away those that had value and burned the rest. Gone are documents and minutes from organizations that I helped to incorporate like the WFAE, CASE, SCALE and so on. I trust that my colleagues in those organizations have kept key documents in their corporate archives so my files are now redundant.I've streamlined my digital footprint on the internet, for example, I removed all 80 of my a calm presence Substack postings, which I now publish one at a time, this posting being the latest, which replaces erasure and so on. This lightens things up and keep me more anchored in the present. I love books but gave away most of my books in the ‘take one - leave one' community library in front of our house and trust that they will find their way to the right people.  I also gave away unused clothing and objects around the house are no longer required but that others might be able to use.  I'm telling you this because you might go through a similar process at some point in your life. It's good to think about what we leave behind and in what kind of order. So, what did I keep? A few binders, organized chronologically, with original manuscripts, photos, letters, certificates, etc. and an SSD drive with my digital originals (essays, podcasts, my Substack, electroacoustic compositions, etc.). I also kept a few t-shirts but that's about it. It all fits in a medium sized box. That's it. I plan to continue learning and engaging with issues I care about, of course, but it's a bit of fresh start. I'll be going to the library more. I might even buy a new book or audio book once in a while, but the idea now is to keep knowledge flowing in the present – to read listen to things as they come out - and to keep the archives very light.   *END NOTES FOR ALL EPISODESHey conscient listeners, I've been producing the conscient podcast as a learning and unlearning journey since May 2020 on un-ceded Anishinaabe Algonquin territory (Ottawa). It's my way to give back.In parallel with the production of the conscient podcast and its francophone counterpart, balado conscient, I I publish a free ‘a calm presence' monthly Substack see https://acalmpresence.substack.com.Your feedback is always welcome at claude@conscient.ca and/or on social media: Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, Threads, BlueSky, Mastodon, Tik Tok, YouTube and Substack.Share what you like, etcI am grateful and accountable to the earth and the human labour that provided me with the privilege of producing this podcast, including the toxic materials and extractive processes behind the computers, recorders, transportation systems and infrastructure that made this production possible.

英語と日本語、「はっきり」の根本的な違い「英語は、単語同士を滑らかにつないで発音する（リンキング）のが良い」と聞いたことがあるかもしれません。しかし、「一語一句はっきりと発音した方が丁寧で通じやすいのでは？」と疑問に思いませんか？実は、英語の「はっきり」と日本語の「はっきり」は、根本的に方向性が異なります。

Rūpa Goswāmī explains that we understand the hierarchy of The Lord's manifestations in terms of His qualities. And one of His qualities is that He plays a flute. Think about that: He is a musician. Once, when somebody asked Prabhupāda why Kṛṣṇa (God) plays a flute, Girirāj Mahārāj told us, Prabhupāda said it means that He is all play and no work. In the 1960s, way before you guys were born, here in the Bay Area, you could have a sighting of a certain kind of creature called the hippie. And lots of hippies played flutes. They also had bare feet, just like Kṛṣṇa is bare feet, and they had long hair, just like Kṛṣṇa has long hair. They played their flute, and they'd sit on the sidewalk. They had an idea also that they would be all play and no work. But it didn't work out, because then the '70s came, and then the '80s, and everything was finished, because everyone went back to business school and forgot about being hippies. They had to work hard, and most of them died early. So utopia, or the land of eternal happiness, is there in this association with Kṛṣṇa. And it comes down through sound when Kṛṣṇa plays His flute. Brahmā, the first living being in the universe, hears it. Then he realizes the Absolute Truth through the flute sound. That same sound can be transferred from one devotee to the next. Prabhupāda gives a statement, which we should not overlook, in his purport to a verse in the Madhya Līlā, in which he says that same flute sound that Brahmā heard at the beginning of creation, which endowed upon him enlightenment, is fully present now in the form of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahāmantra.So, we should listen for that sound. Our purpose in life is to organize in such a way that we can hear the sound of the spiritual world. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

Which is the best path to freedom? Joseph Goldstein is a cofounder of the Insight Meditation Society and the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies, both in Barre, Massachusetts. He is the author of many books including, most recently, Dreamscapes of the Mind.  Sam Harris is a neuroscientist, author, podcaster and the proprietor of the Waking Up app.  This episode is the first installment of a new series on the Eightfold Path.

In this episode we talk about: What the term "non-duality" means — and why it matters to ordinary meditators. The multiple meanings of non-duality across Buddhist traditions (Theravāda, Mahāyāna, Vajrayāna). How different traditions (and even different teachers within them) define samsara and nirvana. The non-duality of the observer and observed — and how that insight can alleviate suffering. Whether understanding non-duality is practically relevant for reducing stress and emotional reactivity. The evolution of Buddhist teachings over time and how interpretations differ across countries. Sam's argument that the non-dual view can be directly experienced in everyday consciousness — and that realizing it ends unnecessary suffering. Joseph's emphasis on non-duality as one path among many toward the ultimate goal: the end of suffering. How metaphysics and direct experience intersect, and whether doctrinal differences are "self-confirming." The concept of "non-clinging" as the real heart of Buddhist practice — and how it relates to non-dual awareness.   Related Episodes: How To Suffer Less: Joseph Goldstein, Sam Harris, and Dan Harris on the Buddha's Eightfold Path   Join Dan's online community here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel   Additional Resources:  For a 30-day free trial to the Waking Up app, go to wakingup.com/tenpercent   Tickets are now on sale for a special live taping of the 10% Happier Podcast with guest Pete Holmes!

When Durvāsā Muni tried to vanquish Ambarīṣa Mahārāja for a slight offense, which had to do with status, Durvāsā thought, "I carry a water pot; therefore, I'm a sādhu." He didn't understand that external trappings have nothing to do with it, because Ambarīṣa Mahārāja was a pure devotee in his heart of hearts, even though he was a king. He's glorified by all the ācāryas, who say, "Look, he's living only for Kṛṣṇa, and he's using everything for Kṛṣṇa." He had performed a severe austerity. He broke the fast before Durvāsā Muni to please Kṛṣṇa, and he did it in such a way that it should have been a non-issue, but Durvāsā Muni made it an issue. He tried to kill him, and then the Sudarśana-cakra chased after him. He went to many places to take shelter. Everyone said, "Sorry." Even then, he went to Lord Viṣṇu, who uttered this verse: "sādhavo hṛdayaṁ tu aham: The pure devotees are in My heart. I only consider them. That's My only consideration. And therefore, you have to go back to Ambarīṣa Mahārāja and beg forgiveness." So the consideration of the Bhāgavatam is that first, we worship the Vaiṣṇavas, or we worship the Vaiṣṇavas and we become servants of the servant. Evidence of this is in Prahlāda's prayers.We find that...

Cc Madhya 24.334-355 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/24/advanced-view/ ------------------------------------------------------------ As soon as I wake up, the first thing I do is I say Prabhupāda's praṇāma mantra: namo om viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale śrīmate bhaktivedānta-svāmin iti nāmine namas te sārasvate deve gaura-vāṇī-pracāriṇe nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi-pāścātya-deśa-tāriṇe Following that, I chant the Pañca-tattva Mahā-mantra: Jaya Śrī-kṛṣṇa-caitanya Prabhu Nityānanda, Śrī-Advaita Gadādhara Śrīvāsādi-gaura-bhakta-vṛnda. Then, I chant the Hare Kṛṣṇa Mahā-mantra: Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare; Hare Rāma, Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare. The verse from the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (SB 10.90.48): jayati jana-nivāso devakī-janma-vādo yadu-vara-pariṣat svair dorbhir asyann adharmam sthira-cara-vṛjina-ghnaḥ su-smita-śrī-mukhena vraja-pura-vanitānāṁ vardhayan kāma-devam I say all those before I swing my legs out of the bed. Then, before I put my right foot on the floor, I say, "Oh, Mother Bhūmi, please forgive me for stepping on your surface." Then as soon as I have two feet on the floor, I say, "Thank you, Śrīla Prabhupāda." And then whoever I feel gratitude for at that time, I start saying thank you to them. It's usually God brothers, or whomever happens to be fresh in my mind when I take a moment of gratitude before I stand up. That prayer, Jayati jana-nivāso, has a history to it, but it's in the paddhati as one of the prayers that one may say upon waking up. So is asking Mother Bhūmi for forgiveness for stepping on her surface. It adds something special: a reminder of how good she is to us and how abundant the world is—that Mother Bhūmi, "Please forgive me for stepping on your surface"—and also treading lightly, being careful wherever we go. So those are what I say when I wake up in the morning (28:53).

Cc Madhya 24.327-331 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/24/advanced-view/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Transcendental necessities really have to do with being able to remove the doubts of a disciple. It's the main point, and it's an intuitive process, because for a disciple, Kṛṣṇa comes in the form of a particular spiritual master locally. As Prabhupāda said, "Spiritual master means a post and also means a person." And the way one ascertains, and does ascertain, that one is getting one's spiritual necessities is by hearing. Generally, people are in a bewildered state in this world, and they're also depressed, and they're also unlucky, and they're also always disturbed. But by hearing from a bona fide spiritual master, one starts to feel lucky again. One comes out of depression. One feels optimistic, and it's that upliftment that generally informs a person or inspires a person to say, "Oh, I'm feeling improved by listening here." And whether it's the Dīkṣā-guru or śikṣā-guru, it's like, "I'm getting enlivened by this. This is the good old spiritual influence that I've always been looking for, and that I've maybe had before. Now I'm feeling it again," whatever it may be. But it's visceral, and it's internalized by a person, by hearing, and all necessities are fulfilled by hearing. I mean, even on a material platform, as Prabhupāda points out in the Third Canto of the Bhāgavatam, what to speak of spiritually. So if the quality of the person is coming through in their talks, in their speech, and the person is feeling uplifted, then that fulfills that requirement—that should be able to deliver the necessities, to remove the doubts. If you look carefully at this passage about the Mahā-bhāgavata, you'll be surprised. In fact, it's used as a counter to those who opine that the way of becoming a guru requires such a lofty conception that only Nityānanda Prabhu or maybe Queen Kuntī could possibly initiate anybody or be involved in the process. But listen what Prabhupāda says here (Cc Madhya 24.330).

Cc Madhya 24.278-326 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/24/ ------------------------------------------------------------ I read in the Śrī Bhaktisiddhānta Vaibhava that when devotees got a windfall, Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta liked them to spend the money on preaching. He didn't like them to get fat and have lots of money. He wanted them to feel that "we have to depend on Kṛṣṇa." That's why it's nice to spend all your money on books and then distribute them all and start over. It gives that feeling of full dependence on Kṛṣṇa. When Caitanya Mahāprabhu, in the Caitanya Bhāgavata, had taken sannyās and He goes out wandering, He brings His followers with Him. As they began the journey, He turned to them and said, "Did you bring anything?" And they said, "Oh, my Lord, You didn't tell us to bring anything." He said, "Very good, because I want you to observe that although the universe is filled up with food and money, people get only what they deserve, and that Kṛṣṇa is sustaining us wherever we go." Once I interviewed Mahātma Prabhu about the early days of preaching, and he said, once Prabhupāda put out an edict that "anybody who goes out preaching and traveling to preach who doesn't care for personal maintenance, then, I guarantee they'll go back to Godhead." I forget what the exact benediction was, but it was something extremely lofty. And he said, "We all just jumped in the van in the middle of winter and took off for the North." He tells the whole story about how they got to some tiny, little town. It was in Canada. It was blizzard conditions, and there was some drunk guy. The only guy on the street was drunk. He ended up buying a book. And then they wondered where to stay, and they were looking around, and they just happened to find a door with a sign on it. They went in there, and it was full facility. Everywhere they went, they found that kind of facility. That Prabhupāda's mood, sort of as Svarūpa Dāmodara said, after Lord Caitanya took sannyās, he said, "I became mad." So Prabhupāda had that kind of spiritual madness, too. I heard he brought a little bag of oats or something, in case there was nothing to eat.

Cc Madhya 24.221-277 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/24/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Question: How to fully forgive those who insult us or obstruct our seva when we are still unable to overcome feelings of pain and anger. Excerpt from the answer: You could take Mahātmā Prabhu's seminar on how to forgive. Lots of people have spoken about forgiveness. Mahātmā Prabhu, in the devotee context talks about it. But one thing is, forgiving doesn't mean that you condone what people have done; forgiving is for you to let it go so that you can move on. Prabhupāda gave an instruction to Peter Burwash. He was a businessman who ran Peter Burwash International. It was a big, huge tennis company; it taught people how to play tennis. He was a devotee, but he never got initiated. In Hawaii, he got a lot of association with Prabhupāda. He signed up as a life member one afternoon, and the next morning, he found out that the devotee he gave his money to had absconded. He became so disturbed and angry, and he went to talk to Prabhupāda about it. Prabhupāda gave him this instruction that he kept for the rest of his life. He used to give seminars and he would always start with this instruction that Prabhupāda said, "Don't be angry with the instrument of your karma." And he took it to heart. So if one takes whatever happens—it doesn't mean, of course, you don't do due diligence. If somebody has abused you or is bullying you, you have to do your due diligence. It doesn't mean to become a doormat to forgive, but internally, one can become highly philosophical and think that 'whatever comes to me, it's by Kṛṣṇa's arrangement. Perhaps I'm paying back a debt from my last life,' and Kṛṣṇa gives this permission, or the śāstra does, to take it as a lesson and just let it go. So it takes a little practice and some philosophical underpinning.

The other thing that Asita Kṛṣṇa Mahārāja said that I've been thinking about a lot lately, is some of the devotees who say Śrīla Prabhupāda only gave us the ABCs. It hurts my heart. I was here for three weeks. We read the Madhya-līlā, of the Caitanya-caritāmṛta. And if anyone has read that, or read the purports that Śrīla Prabhupāda wrote, they could never, ever say such an offensive thing. Prabhupāda gave us everything, and it's up to us to purify our hearts so that we can understand it. When you read the pastimes in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Kṛṣṇa dāsa Kavirāja speaks about it, "according to the level of the devotees who participated in the pastimes, they could understand or they could see." So Prabhupāda said, and I believe that, and I now believe it even more firmly: 'I have given you everything. Everything is in my books,' if we have faith in that, and we read Śrīla Prabhupāda's books, and we read them together. That was the other nice thing about being here. During those readings, we discuss, we ask questions, we unpack, and it's so helpful for for me, as you know, as as an individual, pretty dull-headed, to hear the realizations and the questions that the others bring up. It's absolutely wonderful! If you have facility in your communities to start reading groups, if you don't already have them, I fully support that, because it really helps us to come close to Prabhupāda, to understand Śrīla Prabhupāda, what he has done for us by taking the time. He didn't sleep much, he traveled the world, and still he gave us these purports, translated these books, managed a movement—a fledgling movement of teenagers and twenty-something-year-olds who had come with no Vedic training, no training at all, pretty much, you know, as we heard about the apple or the date. We didn't, we didn't have the basic training. But everything I have, everything I am, it's Śrīla Prabhupāda's mercy. And I know that many, or all of you feel the same way. My whole life, Śrīla Prabhupāda gave me. So I'm grateful. I have so much gratitude, and I'm working to have even more gratitude, because it's unfathomable what Śrīla Prabhupāda has given me. When I was young..

There is a section in the Third Canto of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, in which Vidura asked some questions to Uddhava. And Uddhava, before he can answer, has to pull himself away from the spiritual world. He is standing on this earth, but he has to pull himself away consciously from the spiritual world to be able to answer Vidura. This is something that the ācāryas note: that when one becomes perfect in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, although we may be walking on this earthly planet, still, our consciousness is fully engaged in Kṛṣṇa's pastimes in the spiritual world. So this was Uddhava, who is very, very dear to Lord Kṛṣṇa, who carried the message for Kṛṣṇa, who discovered the greatest devotees and commemorated it by his prayers that he wrote glorifying the gopīs of Vṛndāvana. And here we are, Uddhava Kuṇḍa. We can also pray that somehow or other, we can get the dust of the feet of the great devotees. When we were driving in the rickshaw, somehow we took a shortcut. We drove across a dusty road, and I could hear that Sudhīr Mādhava was joking in the front seat about how we were getting a rajo-'bhiṣekam. Do you know what that is? It's a dust bath. And that's my final point: what is most recommended for advancement in devotional service? rahūgaṇaitat tapasā na yāti na cejyayā nirvapaṇād gṛhād vā This comes from the story in Fifth Canto with Mahārāja Rahūgaṇa and Jaḍa Bharata (SB 5.12.12), who says that you can't make advancement in this world by simply performing severe austerities. Some Yogīs, they sit in cold water up to their neck, or they sit around hot fire in the summertime, or they decide not to eat for long periods of time—whatever austerity somebody takes up, he said, "This is not how you make spiritual advancement." He says, "Until you get the rajo-'bhiṣeka, the dust bath from the feet of a pure devotee, that's when you make advancement." On a very practical level, this means to take up some service in the guru-pranāli-paramparā, become the servant of the servant of the servant of the servant. This is the method by which we can go back home, back to Godhead, following the mood of Śrī Uddhava: that let me be insignificant in service, not be insignificant, but to feel insignificant, and then become significant by taking the dust from the feet of the great devotees, meaning that I absorb myself in their mood and method for practicing Kṛṣṇa consciousness and spreading it all over the world. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

The means for making advancement towards the spiritual world are mentioned in the 10th Canto of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam (SB 10.2.30): tvayy ambujākṣākhila-sattva-dhāmni samādhināveśita-cetasaike tvat-pāda-potena mahat-kṛtena kurvanti govatsa-padaṁ bhavābdhim Say the demigods, meditating on Lord Kṛṣṇa, praying to Him within the womb that one should have one-pointed attention on Kṛṣṇa (samādhināveśita-cetasaike)." And then they say, "We can achieve that by following Kṛṣṇa's and his representative's instructions: tvat-pāda-potena mahat-kṛtena." The Mahat, those who are great souls, Mahātmanas tu māṁ Pārtha (Kṛṣṇa says), "They are following My process," and that means we should respect the process that's passed down to us. That includes the vows we're taking, and always keep those as your life and soul. You'll be taking vows today, so keep those as your mainstay in life. The way that you are able to maintain your life airs is by following your vows: chanting at least 16 rounds, avoiding the four prohibited activities, and being diligent in chanting your Gāyatrī mantras and so forth. And if we can do that, follow the simple process strictly, says Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākur. He quotes from śāstra in the Bhajana Rahasya: "Take the simple path. You don't have to invent anything else; nothing fancy needed. Just follow the simple path. But do it very strictly, and don't deviate from that. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

CC Madhya 19.118-154 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/19/advanced-view/ ------------------------------------------------------------ I had long conversations with Rādhikā Ramaṇa Prabhu when we stayed with him the year Sādhu Saṅga was in Utah. Rādhikā was saying it's the glory of a person, and it makes them more glorified when those after them first of all choose to write about the materials following that luminary. He gave the example of Shakespeare. How many thesis papers have there been in the humanities department about any of Shakespeare's works or his life in general? Millions. And did that eclipse Shakespeare's writings? No. On the contrary, it's a light shining on them saying, "Wow, so many people were writing about him and, you know, taking points from his writings that he must be like the super guy," and he is in literary history. So his point was, after every ācārya, there are always thousands of commentaries. We only see a few of them, but there are thousands of writings about any luminary, any of the mahātmās who have written, and so forth, and it glorifies them, because, of course, that person made a stir, they hit a nerve. They actually had something potent to say, and therefore there's a lot more to say about it and a lot more to churn within what they said. Therefore his opinion was and is, that it's the glory of Prabhupāda that more people write about what he said and what he brought to bear—the whole canon of Vedic literatures—and how we can bring it into the modern light so that people can take advantage of it. That shows Prabhupāda's potency. And case in point was the Bṛhad Bhāgavatāmṛta, because Joseph T. O'Connell, who at the time was the preeminent expert on Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇavism in the academic world, if you read his foreword to the book, he says that very thing: that nobody in the world up to this point, after hundreds of years, has been able to do what Gopīparāṇadhana Prabhu has done, which is to effectively translate what Sanātana Gosvāmī wrote as prose, as commentary, he wrote in Sanskrit, and nobody had been able to take it and put it into a natural flow of language that people could read and understand. And He said it's perfectly done. He said, "This points to the greatness of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedānta Swami Prabhupāda, that he could attract and then train disciples who could do that." What to speak of how the devotees headed by Hṛdayānanda Mahārāja were able to finish the Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth Cantos of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, which sometimes people say, "Oh, you don't read those. They're not Prabhupāda's books." But my opinion is, they're as much Prabhupāda's books as before that, because who trained them to talk like that and have a perfect grasp of the siddhānta and to be able to present it in the same mood that comes through the disciplic succession? It shines a light on the greatness of Prabhupāda that somebody was able to be there and continue that, as Prabhupāda asked them to do.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for October 20, 2025 is: etymology • eh-tuh-MAH-luh-jee • noun An etymology is an explanation of a word's history—that is, where the word came from and how it developed. // As a word nerd, I'm always eager to learn a word's etymology and trace it back to its earliest known origins. See the entry > Examples: “A recent Vogue bride, Nicole Amarise, changed her name—as did her husband. ‘Together we opted to create a new one for our new life together,' she says. ‘We gave ChatGPT information about the etymology of our old surnames, and guided it to generate surname options for us that could relate to our heritages and cultures.'” — Shelby Wax, Vogue, 16 Aug. 2025 Did you know? The etymology of etymology itself is relatively straightforward, so we won't bug you with a lengthy explanation. Etymology ultimately comes from the Greek word etymon, meaning “literal meaning of a word according to its origin.” Etymon in turn comes from etymos, which means “true.” Be careful not to confuse etymology with the similar sounding entomology. Entomon means “insect” in Greek, and entomology is a branch of zoology that deals with insects.

Cc Madhya 15.40-127 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/17/advanced-view/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Tapan Miśra was a scholar. He read too many books, and he got confused. And then he met Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu was traveling in East Bengal, and he asked him, "What should I do?" He had had a dream that he would meet an effulgent personality. And so, by the Lord's arrangement, he met Caitanya Mahāprabhu as Nimāi Paṇḍit. He had traveled with his students. He amassed wealth. He went and taught everybody, and dominated all the debates, and became famous in East Bengal. And then along the way, he met Tapana Miśra, and Tapana Miśra submitted his sad story: that he was confused. He had just read everything. One should not, Rūpa Gosvāmī says, become a bookworm and read all kinds of books just to have some scriptural advantage over others—to defeat them with your extra special verses that nobody has ever heard of. So Mahāprabhu told him, "You should chant Hare Kṛṣṇa." He took him into his fold. And then, inexplicably, He sent him to Banaras. And everyone said, "What? You got a new bhakta, and you're going to send him to Banaras?" Little did they know that Mahāprabhu was going to circle back there, and He would meet him there and have a big part in his līlā. But that's the way He works. That's the Tapana Miśra story. Audience: I can just imagine Tapana Miśra just there in Banaras, and then Caitanya Mahāprabhu just appears there in this scene. It must have been life-changing. HG Vaisesika Dasa: That's the life-changing nature of surrendering to Mahāprabhu. He takes us on a magical mystery journey, I won't say tour, and it's all His mercy.

Cc Madhya 15.170-277 Once you are facing Māyā, then you feel fear and you're disoriented, Budha. But if you're intelligent, ābhajet taṁ bhaktyaikayeśaṁ guru-devatātmā—you should turn back towards Kṛṣṇa through the medium of the spiritual master, who you should consider to be your worshipful deity and your very life and soul. The verse says so. The implication is that one becomes free from that sense of fear that arises from illusion. Like animals are afraid because they're in this existential state of feeling they could be killed at any minute—because they're in illusion. They think they're their body. Dvitīya means the living being thinks he's his body, there's something separate from Kṛṣṇa. So that fear is allayed by taking shelter of the spiritual master and giving one's full attention to Kṛṣṇa. But we discussed last time about the other kind of fear. In the prayers Prahlāda Mahārāja offers to Lord Narasiṁhadev, he says, "trasto 'smy ahaṁ kṛpaṇa-vatsala duḥsahogra-saṁsāra-cakra-kadanād grasatāṁ praṇītaḥ," that I'm not afraid of You, Lord Narasiṁha, like everybody else, but I am afraid of Your Māyā, and that I could fall back into it. So one should be afraid of that. And there's a lot of commentary about that in the Tenth Canto, Second Chapter, because it's mentioned that Devakī was afraid. And then Viśvanātha Cakravartī said, "Very good. You should be afraid.

Why are they offering flowers with no scent? or whatever thing I can find. And I remember Puṇḍarīka Vidyānidhi. You know, the last story in the Caitanya-bhāgavata, Puṇḍarīka Vidyānidhi, who's a paramahaṁsa, he goes to Odana Ṣaṣṭhī, where the Lord gets new clothes. So the pujārīs had put new clothes on Him, but they're still starched, which means they were off the shelf. They just took them off the shelf and offered them to the Lord directly. And he was watching, and he became disgusted, "How dare these pujārīs dress the Lord with the starched garments that are off the shelf!" That night, Puṇḍarīka Vidyānidhi had a dream that Lord Balarāma and Lord Jagannātha came to him, and they said, "How dare you criticize our pujārīs?" And in the dream, they started slapping his face back and forth. The next day, his face was swollen from being smacked. I remember that sometimes when I think, "Didn't they get the memo? It doesn't go there; it goes here." And I think, like, "Hey, these guys have a million times more devotion than you do. Don't try to second-guess who they are." But the reason I ask also is because if you're in a position to find fault, like if you're a temple president, you're free to find fault with—of course, you have to administer your advice systematically in such a way it doesn't disturb people's minds—but it's your duty to walk around and say, "How come there's a crack there?" Like Śivarāma Mahārāja, if you see him in Hungary, he walks around with a white glove, and he'll sweep his hand across a door top or whatever, and say, "Hey, clean this!" So you have to find fault in those cases, but you have to just fine-pick your battles. Like what you said in the beginning, it was one of the Gauḍīya ācāryas had once said. This is in recent times. He said, when asked by an outsider, "What is your religion?" He said, "My religion is to find fault with myself, find my own faults, and to rectify them." So that's a project.

Cc Madhya 15.1-41 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/15/advanced-view/ ------------------------------------------------------------ There's the discussion that takes place when Caitanya Mahāprabhu can understand the mind of Sanātana Goswāmī. Sanātana Goswāmī was thinking of killing himself because he had sores on his body, and he was going to jump in front of the Jagannātha cart in the presence of Caitanya Mahāprabhu. He didn't tell anybody, but Mahāprabhu, one day at the house of Haridāsa Ṭhākura, said to Sanātana Goswāmī, 'I don't approve of this.' He said, 'If I could have achieved Kṛṣṇa by dying, I would have done it millions of times already.

Cc Madhya 14.1-18 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/14/advanced-view/ ------------------------------------------------------------ I think it's in contention for the best purport. We should have every year the 'Best Purport Awards.' This is what I'm going to enter. (HG Vaisesika Dasa) Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja Gosvāmī wants to point out that nothing could compare to the Lord's mercy toward Mahārāja Pratāparudra; therefore he uses the word dekha (“just see”) and caitanyera kṛpā-mahābala (“how powerful is the mercy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu”). This is also confirmed by Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī: yat-kāruṇya-kaṭākṣa-vaibhava-vatām (Caitanya-candrāmṛta 5). Even a little of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's mercy serves as a great asset for spiritual advancement. Therefore the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement must be spread through the mercy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. When Rūpa Gosvāmī experienced the mercy and magnanimity of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, he said: namo mahā-vadānyāya kṛṣṇa-prema-pradāya te kṛṣṇāya kṛṣṇa-caitanya- nāmne gaura-tviṣe namaḥ “I offer my respectful obeisances unto the Supreme Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya, who is more magnanimous than any other avatāra, even Kṛṣṇa Himself, because He is bestowing freely what no one else has ever given — pure love of Kṛṣṇa.” Śrīla Locana dāsa Ṭhākura has also sung, parama karuṇa, pahuṅ dui jana, nitāi-gauracandra: “The two brothers Nitāi and Gaura are so kind that no one can compare to Them.” Similarly, Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura has sung: vrajendra-nandana yei, śacī-suta haila sei, balarāma ha-ila nitāi, dīna-hīna yata chila, hari-nāme uddhārila, tā'ra sākṣī jagāi-mādhāi “Just to deliver all the sinful persons of this age by propagating the chanting of the holy name, Lord Kṛṣṇa and Lord Balarāma have advented as Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Nityānanda Prabhu. Jagāi and Mādhāi are evidence of Their success.” Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's special mission is the deliverance of all fallen souls in Kali-yuga. Devotees of Kṛṣṇa must persistently seek the favor and mercy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu to become fit to return home, back to Godhead.

Cc Madhya 14.17-100 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/14/ ------------------------------------------------------------ The greatest achievement for a devotee is to become a servant of the servants of the Lord. Actually, no one should desire to become the direct servant of the Lord. That is not a very good idea. When Prahlāda Mahārāja was offered a benediction by Nṛsiṁhadeva, Prahlāda rejected all kinds of material benedictions, but he prayed to become the servant of the servants of the Lord. When Dhruva Mahārāja was offered a benediction by Kuvera, the treasurer of the demigods, Dhruva could have asked for unlimited material opulence, but he simply asked for the benediction of becoming the servant of the servants of the Lord. Kholāvecā Śrīdhara was a very poor man, but when Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu wanted to give him a benediction, he also prayed to the Lord to be allowed to remain a servant of the servants of the Lord. The conclusion is that being the servant of the servants of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the highest benediction one can desire.

Cc Madhya 14.174-257 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/14/advanced-view/ Dressing himself as a Vaiṣṇava, Mahārāja Pratāparudra entered the garden at Balagaṇḍi alone and began reciting verses from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. He then took the opportunity to massage the lotus feet of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. The Lord, in His ecstatic love for Kṛṣṇa, immediately embraced the King and thus bestowed mercy upon him. When there was an offering of prasādam in the garden, Lord Caitanya also partook of it. After this, when Lord Jagannātha's ratha car stopped moving, King Pratāparudra called for many elephants to pull it, but they were unsuccessful. Seeing this, Lord Caitanya began to push the car from behind with His head, and the car began moving. Then the devotees began pulling the car with ropes. Near the Guṇḍicā temple is a place known as Āiṭoṭā. This place was fixed up for Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu to rest in. When Lord Jagannātha was seated at Sundarācala, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu saw it as Vṛndāvana. He performed sporting pastimes in the water of the lake known as Indradyumna. For nine continuous days during Ratha-yātrā, the Lord remained at Sundarācala, and on the fifth day He and Svarūpa Dāmodara observed the pastimes of Lakṣmī, the goddess of fortune. During that time, there was much talk about the pastimes of the gopīs. When the ratha was again being drawn and the chanting resumed, two devotees from Kulīna-grāma — Rāmānanda Vasu and Satyarāja Khān — were requested to bring silk ropes every year for the Ratha-yātrā ceremony.

Cc Madhya 13.66-137 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/13/advanced-view/ ------------------------------------------------------------ In his Anubhāṣya, Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura describes the ecstasy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu as follows. After giving up the company of the gopīs in Vṛndāvana, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the son of Mahārāja Nanda, engaged in His pastimes at Dvārakā. When Kṛṣṇa went to Kurukṣetra with His brother and sister and others from Dvārakā, He again met the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu is rādhā-bhāva-dyuti-suvalita, that is, Kṛṣṇa Himself assuming the part of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī in order to understand Kṛṣṇa. Lord Jagannātha-deva is Kṛṣṇa, and Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu is Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī. Caitanya Mahāprabhu's leading Lord Jagannātha toward the Guṇḍicā temple corresponded to Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī's leading Kṛṣṇa toward Vṛndāvana. Śrī Kṣetra, Jagannātha Purī, was taken as the kingdom of Dvārakā, the place where Kṛṣṇa enjoys supreme opulence. But He was being led by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu to Vṛndāvana, the simple village where all the inhabitants are filled with ecstatic love for Kṛṣṇa. Śrī Kṣetra is a place of aiśvarya-līlā, just as Vṛndāvana is the place of mādhurya-līlā. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's following at the rear of the ratha indicated that Lord Jagannātha, Kṛṣṇa, was forgetting the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana. Although Kṛṣṇa neglected the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana, He could not forget them. Thus in His opulent Ratha-yātrā, He was returning to Vṛndāvana. In the role of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu was examining whether the Lord still remembered the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana.

Cc Madhya 10.10-108 https://vedabase.io/en/library/cc/madhya/10/advanced-view/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Physical proximity isn't necessarily the thing that helps, because you can be in somebody's physical proximity, and your mind can be elsewhere. For instance, who's in a better position? Somebody who lives in Delhi, has to work there, has to stay there, and is always thinking about living in Vṛndāvana and hankering for Vṛndāvana? Or someone who moved to Vṛndāvana, but they're thinking, "I wish I could go to Delhi, because I want to go to Haldirām's, have a snack, and watch a football match"? I mean, who's in a better position? Physical proximity? One's in Vṛndāvana, the other one's in Delhi. So your point about, okay, he (Kālā Kṛṣṇa Dāsa) was close to Caitanya Mahāprabhu—but if your mind isn't engaged, then you could be far away and not taking advantage of Mahāprabhu's mercy. The sun is there, but if you cover yourself from it, then you're not able to take advantage of it. Just like with chanting—you can chant and not even be aware that you're chanting. Then that's one of the offenses. You're chanting, and Kṛṣṇa is directly present before you as the avatāra, but then you are thinking about something else—so you are not really there.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for October 12, 2025 is: imprimatur • im-pruh-MAH-toor • noun Imprimatur is a formal word that refers to explicit approval or permission. // Though not an official project of the theater, the drama festival has its imprimatur. See the entry > Examples: “It is not overstating to say that [Frederick] Douglass was a baseball man. He attended games, supported his sons' involvement, and even played catch with his grandchildren. Douglass's support gave Black baseball an imprimatur of race approval as an activity that uplifted the race. It was not frivolous for Black men to pursue this sport as an avocation, or even as a vocation.” — Gerald Early, Play Harder: The Triumph of Black Baseball in America, 2025 Did you know? Imprimatur means “let it be printed” in New Latin (the Latin used since the end of the medieval period especially in science). It comes from Latin imprimere, meaning “to imprint or impress.” In the 1600s, the word appeared in the front matter of books, accompanied by the name of an official authorizing the book's printing. In time, English speakers began using imprimatur in the general sense of “official approval.”

Every knowledge system requires axiomatic statements. Otherwise, you can't go anywhere. Axiomatic means they don't require investigation. They're just accepted. And if you don't have that, as Aristotle said, you get infinite regress. You can't go anywhere. It's like troops keep retreating and retreating and retreating, and they never stand and fight. And H. H. Hridayānanda Mahārāja gave the example of this: that someone says, 'What temperature is water? What, 200 degrees, or whatever it is.' I said, 'Prove it.' So then you get water, and you boil it, put a thermometer in, and then it says 200, and then it starts to boil. And you say, 'There, it's proved.' He says, 'Wait a minute, prove that's a real thermometer.' So then you go get a thermometer testing kit, whatever that is, and you test it. You say, 'Okay, it's real.' And then you go, 'Prove that that's a real thermometer testing kit.' And in that way, you keep going back and back and back. There has to be a point at which you have an axiom where this is the source—this is self-revealing. It proves itself. You don't have to investigate it. So, every system has that. In our system of epistemology, the Vedas are apauruṣeya. They're not from a human source. They come directly from the Divine. In fact, they're co-eternal with Kṛṣṇa, and they prove themselves. And of course, Prabhupāda goes into some detail on this in the beginning of the Śrī Īśopaniṣad in this lecture in Albert Hall. He gave this as a premise to say how to understand this philosophy.

There is a long passage on that in the Bṛhat Bhagavatamṛta, and there, Sanātana Goswāmī gives ample evidence about how the primary process in Kali Yuga is the chanting of the holy names. Jīva Goswāmī also concludes that there are, other processes that we engage in. For instance, arcanam is there in the nine, but he says there that because in this age, the prime method is chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa, even with arcanam, it has to be preceded by chanting of the Mahāmantra and followed by chanting the Mahāmantra in order for it to be successful. And that emphasis is there throughout the teachings of the Goswāmīs: that chanting is the primary process. Caitanya Mahāprabhu said it himself when asked, 'Of all the different processes, which completes them all?' And it's the chanting of the holy name of The Lord. As to why it's because it's especially recommended. Because, as an example, the Bhagavatam itself begins by mentioning chanting the holy names and ends with mentioning chanting of the holy names as the means for success. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

There has to be a point at which you have an axiom where this is the source—this is self-revealing. It proves itself. You don't have to investigate it. So, every system has that. In our system of epistemology, the Vedas are apauruṣeya. They're not from a human source. They come directly from the Divine. In fact, they're co-eternal with Kṛṣṇa, and they prove themselves. And of course, Prabhupāda goes into some detail on this in the beginning of the Śrī Īśopaniṣad in this lecture in Albert Hall. He gave this as a premise to say how to understand this philosophy.
