Once a powerful figure who reversed the disintegration of China and steered the country to Allied victory in World War II, Chiang Kai-shek fled into exile following his 1949 defeat in the Chinese civil war. As attention pivoted to Mao Zedong's communist experiment, Chiang was relegated to the dustbin of history. In Chiang Kai-shek's Politics of Shame, Grace Huang reconsiders Chiang's leadership and legacy by drawing on an extraordinary and uncensored collection of his diaries, telegrams, and speeches stitched together by his secretaries. She paints a new, intriguing portrait of this twentieth-century leader who advanced a Confucian politics of shame to confront Japanese incursion into China and urge unity among his people. In also comparing Chiang's response to imperialism to those of Mao, Yuan Shikai, and Mahatma Gandhi, Grace widens the implications of her findings to explore alternatives to Western expressions of nationalism and modernity and reveal how leaders of vulnerable states can use potent cultural tools to inspire their country and contribute to an enduring national identity. Grace Huang is professor of government at St. Lawrence University in Canton, NY. She likes to tackle a range of intellectual questions, including: what are the conditions in leadership that promote collective inspiration versus collective hysteria or violence? How do talented subordinates weigh their ability to modify a leader's deleterious actions against their moral culpability of participating in those policies? How does a particular democratic ideology and culture shape the choices of working mothers, and how do such mothers make decisions about care, family, and work? Her research interests include political leadership, the political uses of shame in Chinese leadership, and gender, labor, and the family. She can be reached at ghuang@stlawu.edu. Dong Wang is distinguished professor of history and director of the Wellington Koo Institute for Modern China in World History at Shanghai University (since 2016), a member of the Royal Institute of International Affairs, and an elected Fellow of the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

Have you ever felt that conflict deep in your soul? The world screams for justice, but the words of Jesus echo in your spirit, telling you to turn the other cheek. This isn't a contradiction; it's a battle plan—a spiritual technology so powerful it changed the world. In this episode of "Coffee with Conrad," we trace the revolutionary path of nonviolence not as passive pacifism, but as an offensive spiritual declaration of war against the enemy. We'll uncover how the torch of truth, lit by Jesus, was passed to Leo Tolstoy, Mahatma Gandhi, and finally to Martin Luther King Jr., igniting transformative change in their wake Key Takeaways:The Battlefield and the Weapon: The true meaning of "turning the other cheek" is an active confrontation with spiritual weapons of love and truth, not passive resignation. Our battle is not against "flesh and blood, but against spiritual wickedness" (Ephesians 6).A Chain of Torchbearers: Learn how the radical idea of non-resistance to evil was passed from Jesus to Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy, who wrote The Kingdom of God Is Within You. This book then influenced a young Indian lawyer, Mahatma Gandhi, who forged the concept into a weapon he calledIgniting America: Discover how Martin Luther King Jr. found in Gandhi's satyagraha the method he needed to put the Christian doctrine of love into social action. King's nonviolent approach, rooted in agape love, led to monumental change like the Voting Rights Act of 1965.Your Calling and Your Hill: Each of us has a specific calling—a "divine assignment" where our passion aligns with kingdom purposes. The key is to find your "hill to die on" and confront the spiritual forces behind that specific injustice with Jesus's revolutionary love.Study the Word and the Torchbearers: "Study to shew thyself approved unto God" (2 Timothy 2:15).

“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.” — Mahatma Gandhi

“The Jewish voice must be heard, not because it's more right or less right, but it's there. The suffering is there, the grief is there, and human grief is human grief.” As Jews around the world mark Tisha B'Av, we're joined by Columbia University professor and award-winning poet Owen Lewis, whose new collection, “A Prayer of Six Wings,” offers a powerful reflection on grief in the aftermath of October 7th. In this conversation, Lewis explores the healing power of poetry in the face of trauma, what it means to be a Jewish professor in today's campus climate, and how poetry can foster empathy, encourage dialogue, and resist the pull of division. *The views and opinions expressed by guests do not necessarily reflect the views or position of AJC.   Listen – AJC Podcasts: The Forgotten Exodus: Untold stories of Jews who left or were driven from Arab nations and Iran People of the Pod:  Latest Episodes:  An Orange Tie and A Grieving Crowd: Comedian Yohay Sponder on Jewish Resilience From Broadway to Jewish Advocacy: Jonah Platt on Identity, Antisemitism, and Israel Sexual Violence as a Weapon of War: The Dinah Project's Quest to Hold Hamas Accountable Follow People of the Pod on your favorite podcast app, and learn more at AJC.org/PeopleofthePod You can reach us at: peopleofthepod@ajc.org If you've appreciated this episode, please be sure to tell your friends, and rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Transcript of the Interview:   Owen Lewis:   Overheard in a New York Restaurant.   I can't talk about Israel tonight.    I know.    I can't not talk about Israel tonight.    I know.    Can we talk about . . .   Here? Sure. Let's try to talk about here.   Manya Brachear Pashman:   On Saturday night, Jews around the world will commemorate Tisha B'av. Known as the saddest day on the Jewish calendar, the culmination of a three week period of mourning to commemorate several tragedies throughout early Jewish history.  As a list of tragedies throughout modern Jewish history has continued to grow, many people spend this day fasting, listening to the book of Lamentations in synagogue, or visiting the graves of loved ones. Some might spend the day reading poetry.  Owen Lewis is a Professor of Psychiatry in the Department of Medical Humanities and Ethics at Columbia University. But he's also the award-winning author of four poetry collections which have won accolades, including the EE Cummings Prize and the Rumi Prize for Poetry.  His most recent collection, A Prayer of Six Wings documents in verse his grief since the October 7 terror attacks. Owen is with us now to talk about the role of poetry in times of violence and war, what it's been like to be a Jewish professor on the Columbia campus, and a Jewish father with children and grandchildren in Israel. And also, how to keep writing amid a climate of rising antisemitism. Owen, welcome to People of the Pod. Owen Lewis:   Thank you so much, Manya. Manya Brachear Pashman:   So you opened with that short poem titled overheard in a New York restaurant. I asked you to read that because I wanted to ask whether it reflected how you felt about poetry after October 7.  Did you find yourself in a place where you couldn't write about Israel, but yet you couldn't not write about Israel? Owen Lewis:   Among the many difficult things of that First Year, not only the war, not only the flagrant attacks on the posters of the hostages one block from where I live, 79th and Broadway, every day, taken down every day, put back up again, defaced. It was as if the war were being fought right here on 79th and Broadway.  Another aspect that made this all so painful was watching the artistic and literary world turn against Israel. This past spring, 2000 writers and artists signed a petition, it was published, there was an oped about it in The Times, boycotting Israeli cultural institutions.  And I thought: artists don't have a right to shut their ears. We all need to listen to each other's grief, and if we poets and artists can't listen to one another, what do we expect of statesmen? Statesmen, yeah, they can create a ceasefire. That's not the same as creating peace. And peace can only come when we really listen to each other. To feel ostracized by the poetry community and the intellectual community was very painful. Fortunately, last summer, as well as this past summer, I was a fellow at the Yetzirah conference. Yetzirah is an organization of Jewish American poets, although we're starting to branch out. And this kind of in-gathering of like-minded people gave me so much strength.  So this dilemma, I can't talk about it, because we just can't take the trauma. We can't take hearing one more thing about it, but not talk about it…it's a compulsion to talk about it, and that's a way to process trauma. And that was the same with this poetry, this particular book.  I feel in many ways, it just kind of blew through me, and it was at the same time it blew through me, created this container in which I could express myself, and it actually held me together for that year. I mean, still, in many ways, the writing does that, but not as immediately and acutely as I felt that year.  Manya Brachear Pashman:   This book has been praised as not being for the ideological but for the intellectually and emotionally engaged. So it's not it's not something that ideologically minded readers will necessarily be able to connect to, or is it actually quite the opposite?  Owen Lewis:  Well, it's very much written from the gut, from the experience, from in a sense, being on the ground, both in Israel and here in New York and on campus, and trying to keep a presence in the world of poetry and writers. So what comes from emotion should speak to emotion. There are a few wisps of political statements, but it's not essentially a politically motivated piece of writing.  I feel that I have no problem keeping my sympathies with Israel and with Jews. I can still be critical of aspects of the government, and my sympathies can also be with the thousands of Palestinians, killed, hurt, displaced. I don't see a contradiction. I don't have to take sides.  But the first poem is called My Partisan Grief, and it begins on October 7. I was originally going to call the bookMy Partisan Grief, because I felt that American, Jewish, and Israeli grief was being silenced, was being marginalized. And I wanted to say, this is our grief. Listen to it. You must listen to this. It doesn't privilege this grief over another grief. Grief is grief. But I wanted ultimately to move past that title into something broader, more encompassing, more humanitarian. Manya Brachear Pashman:  And did that decision come as the death toll in Gaza rose and this war kept going and going and the hostages remained in captivity, did that kind of sway your thinking in terms of how to approach the book and frame it?  Owen Lewis:  Yes, but even more than those kind of headlines, which can be impersonal, the poetry of some remarkable Palestinian poets move me into a broader look. Abu Toha was first one who comes to mind Fady Joudah, who's also a physician, by the way. I mean his poetry, I mean many others, but it's gorgeous, moving poetry.  Some of it is a diatribe, and you know, some of it is ideological, and people can do that with poetry, but when poetry really drills down into human experience, that's what I find so compelling and moving. And that's what I think can move the peace process. I know it sounds quite idealistic, but I really think poetry has a role in the peace process here. Manya Brachear Pashman:  I want to I want to unpack that a little bit later. But first, I want to go back to the protests that were roiling Columbia's campus over the past year and a half, two years. What was it like to be, one, writing this book, but also, teaching on campus as a Jewish professor?  Owen Lewis:  Most of my teaching takes place up at the Medical Center at 168th Street. And there I have to say, I didn't feel battered in any way by what was happening. I had a very shocking experience. I had a meeting that I needed to attend on, or that had been scheduled, I hadn't been quite paying attention. I mean, I knew about the encampments, but I hadn't seen them, and I come face to face with a blocked campus. I couldn't get on the campus. And what I'm staring at are signs to the effect, send the Jews back to Poland. I'm thinking, Where am I? What is this? I mean, protest, sure. I mean we expect undergraduates, we expect humans, to protest when things really aren't fair. But what did this have to do…why invoke the Holocaust and re-invoke it, as if to imply the Jews should be punished? All Jews.  And what it fails to account for are the diversity of Jewish opinion. And you know, for some Jews, it's a black or white matter, but for most thinking Jews that I know, we all struggle very much with a loyalty to Israel, to the Jewish people, to the homeland and larger humanitarian values. So that was quite a shock. And I wrote a piece called “The Scars of Encampment,” in which I say, I can't unsee that. " And I go to campus, and, okay, it's a little bit more security to get onto campus. It's a beautiful campus. It's like an oasis there, but at the same time, I'm seeing what was as if it still is. And in a way, that's the nature of trauma that things from the past just roil and are present with almost as much emotion as when first encountered. Manya Brachear Pashman:  So did you need to tune out those voices, or did that fuel your work? Owen Lewis:  No, that fueled my work. I mean, if anything, it made me feel much more, a sense of mission with this book. And a commitment, despite criticism that I may receive, and no position I take is that outlandish, except to sympathize with the murdered on October 7th, to sympathize with their families, to resonate with what it must be like to have family members as hostages in brutal, brutal conditions. Not knowing whether they're dead or alive. So I really felt that the Jewish voice must be heard, not because it's more right or less right, but it's there. The suffering is there, the grief is there, and human grief is human grief. Manya Brachear Pashman:  Owen, if you wouldn't mind reading another poem from the collection. Of course, many of us remember the news out of Israel on Thanksgiving Day 2023, right after October 7th. And this poem is titled, “Waiting for the Next Release, Reported by the New York Times, November 23 2023”. Owen Lewis:  Waiting For the Next Release, Reported N.Y. Times, Nov. 23, 2023    Maybe tomorrow, if distrust  doesn't flare like a missile,  some families will be reunited.    How awful this lottery of choice; Solomon would not deliberate. Poster faces always before my eyes,   Among them, Emma & Yuli Cunio.  Twins age 3, Raz Katz-Asher, age 4, Ariel Bibas, another four year old.    What do their four year old minds make  of captivity? What will they say? What would my Noa say?    What will the other Noas say?  Remembering Noa Argamani, age 26,  thrown across the motorcycle    to laughter and Hamas joy.   I have almost forgotten this American day,  Thanks- giving,   With its cornucopian harvests,  I am thinking of the cornucopian  jails of human bounty.    (What matter now who is to blame?) Manya Brachear Pashman:  Really beautiful, and it really captures all of our emotions that day. You have children and grandchildren in Israel, as I mentioned and as you mentioned in that poem, your granddaughter, Noa. So your grief and your fear, it's not only a collective grief and fear that we all share, but also very personal, which you weave throughout the collection.  In another poem, “In a Van to JFK”, you talk about just wanting to spend one more hour with your family before they fly off to Israel. And it's very moving.  But in addition to many of the poems, like the one you just read, they are based on and somewhat named for newspaper headlines, you said that kind of establishes a timeline. But are there other reasons why you transformed those headlines into verse? Owen Lewis:  Yes, William Carlos Williams in his poem Asphodel, says, and I'm going to paraphrase it badly. You won't get news from poems yet, men die every day for wanting what is found there. And I think it's a very interesting juxtaposition of journalism and poetry. And I mean, I'm not writing news, I'm writing where my reflections, where my heart, goes in response to the news, and trying to bring another element to the news that, you know, we were confronted.  I mean, in any time of high stress, you swear off – I'm not watching any more TV. I'm not even gonna look at the newspaper. And then, of course, you do. I can't talk about Israel today. I can't not talk about it. I can't read the paper. I can't not read the paper. It's kind of that back and forth. But what is driving that? And so I'm trying to get at that next dimension of what's resonating behind each one of these headlines, or resonating for me. I mean, I'm not claiming this is an interpretation of news. It's my reaction, but people do react, and there's that other dimension to headlines. Manya Brachear Pashman:  That seems like it might be therapeutic, no? Owen Lewis:  Oh, totally, totally. You know, I'm very fortunate that having started a career in medicine, in psychiatry, and particularly in child and adolescent psychiatry. I always had one foot in the door academically. I spent, you know, my life as, I still teach, but I'm very fortunate to have, maybe 10+ years ago, been introduced to a basically a woman who created the field of Narrative Medicine, Rita Sharon. And now at Columbia in the medical school, we have a free-standing Department of Medical Humanities and Ethics, of which she's chairman.  So I've had the fortune of bringing psychiatry and medicine and writing together in a very integrated way. And yes, writing is therapeutic, especially, I could say in medicine, which has given itself over to electronic medical record keeping, but our whole society is moving towards the electronic. And what happens when you sit and write, and what happens when you then sit and read, you reflect. Your mind engages in a different way that is a bit slower than the fast pace of electronic communications and instant communications and instant thinking. And now with AI, instant analysis of any situation you want to feed data from.  So that's sorely lacking in the human experience. And the act of writing, the act of reading has huge therapeutic values, huge salutary benefits for humans in general, but particularly in times of stress. In a lot of work on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, finding an outlet, an artistic outlet, it doesn't have to be writing, but that's often a way of transcending the trauma.  And medicine is filled with trauma. People trying to come to terms with acute illnesses, chronic illnesses. Doctors and caregivers trying to come to terms with what they can and can't do. And you know, we're coming up against limitations. But how do you make peace with those limitations? And it's not that it's a magical panacea, but it's a process of engagement, not only with the subject, but with yourself in relation to the subject. Manya Brachear Pashman:  I mean, I imagine dialogue is really the healthiest way of conversation and speaking through and interacting with a topic. And so I would imagine poetry, or, as you said, any art form, responding to news reports, it makes that a two way conversation when you're able to process and it's not just the headlines shouting at you, you're actually interacting and processing it by writing and reaction, or painting and reaction, whatever you choose to do. Owen Lewis:  Exactly. Manya Brachear Pashman:  You have said that poetry can serve a purpose during times of war. Is this one of the purposes to to be therapeutic or are you talking more in terms of what statesmen could learn from it?  Owen Lewis:  Well, yes, of course, what statesmen could learn from it, but it's human nature to want to take sides. I mean, that's kind of just what we do. But I think we can always do better than that. So I'm really talking about the people. I mean, there are also many Jews who are so angry at Israel that they can't listen to the story of Jewish grief. They should be reading mine and others poetries from this era. I wish the Palestinian poets were. I wish the Palestinian people. I mean, of course, in their current situation, they don't have time when you're starving, when you're looking for your next glass of fresh water. You don't have time for anything beyond survival.  But once we get beyond that, how long are these positions going to be hardened. I mean, I think when the people of all sides of the dilemma really listen to the others, I mean, they're, I mean, if, unless as Hamas has expressed, you know, wants to push Israel into the sea, if Israel is going to coexist with the Palestinian people, whether they're in a nation or not in a nation, each has to listen to the other.  And it's, you know, it's not one side is right, one side is wrong. It's far too complex a history to reduce it to that kind of simplicity. And I think poetry, everyone's poetry, gets at the complexity of experience, which includes wanting to take sides and questioning your wanting to take sides and moving towards something more humanitarian.  Manya Brachear Pashman:  You said earlier, you recommend Abu Toha, Fady Joudah, two Palestinian poets who have written some beautiful verse about– tragically beautiful verse–about what's happening. But there have been some really deep rifts in the literary world over this war. I mean, as you mentioned before, there was a letter written by authors and entertainers who pledged to boycott Israeli cultural institutions. Some authors have refused to sell rights to their books to publishers in Israel. So why not reciprocate? And I know the answer. I think you've already addressed it pretty well. What's wrong with that approach? Owen Lewis:  In any conflict, there are at least three sides to the conflict. I mean, claims to nationhood, claims to who shoved first, who. I mean, you don't entangle things by aggressively reacting. I mean, if we learned anything from Mahatma Gandhi, it's what happens when we don't retaliate, right? And what happens when we go the extra mile to create bridges and connections.  There are a host of people in Israel who continue to help Palestinians get to medical facilities, driving them back and forth, working for peace. I mean, there's a Palestinian on the Supreme Court of Israel, and well, he should be there. You know, that's the part of Israel that I am deeply proud of. So why not retaliate? I think it entrenches positions and never moves anything forward. Manya Brachear Pashman:  So have you gotten any negative feedback from your writing colleagues? Owen Lewis:  Some cold shoulders, yes. I mean not nothing overtly. I haven't been slammed in a review yet. Maybe that's coming. But when I publish pieces, I tend not to look at them. I had an oped in the LA Times. I've had some other pieces, you know, that precipitates blogs, and I started to read them.  And the first blog that came off of the the LA Times oped was, God, is he an opportunist, just taking advantage of having a daughter in Israel? And trying to make a name for himself or something. And I said, You know what, you can't put yourself out and take a position without getting some kind of flack. So occasionally, those things filter back, it's par for the course. Manya Brachear Pashman:  Right, not really worth reading some of those. You included Midrash in this book. You also spelled God in the traditional sense in the poems. Why did you choose to do that? Owen Lewis:  Well, I felt it honors a tradition of Jewish writing. It mean we have yud, hey, vav, hey, you know, which in English comes down as Yahweh, but it's unpronounceable. The name of God is unpronounceable. And, you know, yud, hey, vav, hey is just a representation. It isn't God's name. And there's a tradition that the name of God, when it's written down, can't be destroyed. And it's a way of honoring that tradition. Millennium of Jewish writers, you know, it's similar to say Elokim, instead of Elohim when the text is written. To sort of substitute. We know what we're talking about, but really to honor tradition, to pay respect and sort of to stay in the mind frame that, if there is a God, he, she, they, are unknowable. And somehow it creates, for me, a little bit of that mystery by leaving a letter out. It's like, G, O, D, seems more knowable than G-d. It's leaving that white space right for something bigger, grander, and mysterious, for the presence of that  right in the word itself. Manya Brachear Pashman:  And what about including Midrash? Owen Lewis: That's a very interesting question. You know Midrash for me, when you steep yourself in traditional Midrash, there's stories that exemplify principles and they fill in gaps. I mean, some of the most important. I mean, we have this notion of Abraham breaking the idols of his father before he left. No. That's Midrash, thats not in the Torah. And yet, nine out of ten Jews will say that's in the Torah, right? So, it kind of expands our understanding of the traditional text. But it also very much allows a writer to creatively engage with the text and expand it. It's like a commentary, but it's a commentary in story, and it's a commentary in terms that evoke human responses, not necessarily intellectual responses. So frankly, I think it's every Jews' responsibility to write Midrash. That reinvigorates the stories, the texts, and the meanings, and then we write midrashes upon midrashes. And you know, we get a whole community buzzing about a single story. Manya Brachear Pashman:  Which is very much what you've done with this collection, you know, writing poetry in response to news stories and engaging it in that way. It's very Jewish response, I would argue.  Do you observe Tisha B'av? Owen Lewis:  You know what I do. You're gonna laugh. My grandmother always warned us, don't go in the water on Tisha B'av, the sea will swallow you up. So I'm a big swimmer. I love swimming. I don't swim on Tisha B'av, because I hear my grandmother's voice, I'm going to be swallowed up. Manya Brachear Pashman:  If you could please wrap up this conversation by sharing a poem of your choice from your latest collection. Owen Lewis:  A poem I love to read again starts with a headline.   2000 Pound Bombs Drop, Reported N.Y. Times, Dec,, 22 2023.   In Khan Younis, the call to prayer  is the call of a dazed Palestinian child crying baba, standing at the brim of a cavernous pit of rubble   biting his knuckles–baba, baba . . .  It's so close to the abba of the dazed  Israeli children of Be'eri, Kfar Azza. There is no comfort. From his uncles   he's heard the calls for revenge– for his home and school, for his bed  of nighttime stories, for his nana's  whisper-song of G-d's many names.   His Allah, his neighbor's Adonai,  cry the same tears for death  and shun more blood. No miracle these waters turning red. Who called forth    the fleets of avenging angels? By viral post: Jewish Plagues on Gaza! A firstborn lost,  then a second, a third. What other plagues  pass over? Hail from the tepid sky?   From on high it falls and keeps falling.  Though we've “seen terrible things,” will you tell us, Adonai, Allah, tell us– do You remember the forgotten promise?   From the pile once home of rubble stone, a father's hand reaching out, baba, abba crushed by the load. We know the silence  of the lost child . . . G-d “has injured us   but will bind up our wounds . . .” Mothers  Look for us, called by the name yamma, calling  the name imma. Our father of mercy, not the god of sacrifice. Our many crying heads explode. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Owen Lewis, thank you so much for talking to us about how this book came about and for sharing some of these verses. Owen Lewis:   Thank you so much. Manya Brachear Pashman: If you missed last week's episode, be sure to listen to my conversation with Israeli comedian Yohay Sponder on the sidelines of AJC Global Forum 2025. Hear how his Jewish identity shapes his work, how his comedy has evolved since the Hamas terror attacks, and what he says to those who try to silence him.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into the concept of "bumper rails.”You know, those metaphorical “guardrails” that keep us from going off track in life, kinda' like the ones that help little kids bowl without constantly throwing gutter balls.

Gurudev and Bapu explores the extraordinary exchange of letters and ideas between Mahatma Gandhi and Rabindranath Tagore, set against the backdrop of the Indian freedom struggle. Over 25 years, their correspondence reveals sharp differences on key issues—nationalism, civil disobedience, education—but also unwavering respect and affection between the two. Their dialogue reflects a time in India's history marked by thoughtful disagreement and political maturity—offering insights into how principled dissent and mutual regard can coexist. Bangalore Little Theatre was honoured to present early performances of the play at places closely associated with Gandhi and Tagore—Sabarmati Ashram, Santiniketan (Visva Bharati), and Thakurbari-Jorasanko (Rabindra Bharati). It has also been staged for the President of India. Adapted from the internationally acclaimed production with over 130 performances in India and abroad, this staging promises a compelling reflection on two great minds and the values that shaped a nation. This performance is a tribute to Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore's enduring legacy, presented around the time of his birth anniversary. Supported by: JSW In this episode of BIC Talks, Vijay Padaki does a dramatised presentation of the Tagore-Gandhi Exchanges.

In diesen letzten Tagen vor den Schulferien werden an vielen Schulen auch Mitarbeitende, Lehrer und Lehrerinnen verabschiedet, die die Schule wechseln oder in den wohlverdienten Ruhestand gehen. Im Nachbarort wird die bisherige Schulleiterin der Grundschule so verabschiedet. Und in der Vorbereitung auf die Verabschiedung hat ein Verantwortlicher ein Interview gefunden, mit dem sie vor 15 Jahren vorgestellt worden ist. Da wird also nach Kindheitsträumen gefragt und nach Lieblingsfernsehsendungen, nach Schauspielern und Lieblingshits, nach Kochkünsten und liebsten Urlaubszielen. Die Antwort auf die Frage nach Lieblingsfiguren aus Geschichte und Politik ist interessant: Sankt Martin, Mahatma Gandhi und Maria Montessori fand sie gut. Und natürlich wurde auch nach Prioritäten für die Arbeit in der Schule gefragt. Und sie sagt einige bemerkenswerte Sätze wie zum Beispiel: Die Welt könnte besser werden, wenn die Erziehung und Schulbildung der Kinder zur höchsten Priorität in unserer Gesellschaft wird. Oder auch: Jedes Kind soll sich nach seinen Möglichkeiten entfalten können. Bei uns soll mit Kopf, Herz und Hand gelernt werden.Ich bin echt beeindruckt und jeder Satz ist weiterhin gültig für alle, denen Kinder, Schüler und Jugendliche am Herzen liegen. Aber zum Schluss gab es noch eine Frage, die mich dann total verblüfft hat. Die neue Grundschulleiterin war damals gefragt worden, mit wem sie gern einen Monat lang tauschen würde und ihre Antwort war: mit einer Moderatorin vom Domradio. Das ist ja wohl toll. Da war das Domradio gerade junge 10 Jahre alt und also noch im Grundschulalter. Ich weiß nicht, ob sie jemals das Domradio und Moderatoren näher kennengelernt hat. Oder ob sie sich an diesen Wunsch überhaupt erinnert. Schön finde ich es schon.Und manche Träume und Wünsche und Ideen sind ja auch weiterhin gültig und viele Menschen sind, wenn sie in den beruflichen Ruhestand gehen, noch fit und können sich neu orientieren. Vielleicht ist es ein Gedanke für Sie zuhause: welcher Wunsch, welche Idee, welcher Traum ist bei mir noch offen und könnte doch heute mal angegangen werden.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Selasa, 8 Juli 2025Bacaan: "Kamu adalah surat pujian kami yang tertulis dalam hati kami dan yang dikenal dan yang dapat dibaca oleh semua orang." (2 Kor 3:2)Renungan: Di dalam autobiografinya, Mahatma Gandhi mengatakan bahwa pada masa sekolahnya dia sangat tertarik pada Alkitab. Hatinya tersentuh secara mendalam ketika dia membaca Injil. Pada suatu hari minggu dia pergi ke gereja untuk mengikuti ibadah, tetapi ketika dia memasuki gereja, penyambut tamu di gereja menolak memberikan tempat duduk kepadanya dan menyarankan supaya dia pergi dan beribadat bersama-sama orangnya sendiri. Mahatma Gandhi meninggalkan tempat itu dan tak mau kembali lagi. Dia berkata, "Jikalau orang Kristen mempunyai perbedaan kasta juga, lebih baik aku tetap menjadi orang Hindu." Terkadang tanpa kita sadari perkataan dan perbuatan kita menjadi batu sandungan bagi orang lain untuk mengenal Yesus. Ada banyak kesempatan kita mengenalkan kasih Yesus tapi sering hal itu terlewat begitu saja. Sikap dan perkataan kasar terhadap pembantu atau supir, sikap cuek dan acuh tak acuh terhadap penderitaan tetangga kiri dan kanan, terkadang hal itu membuat mereka benci dengan kekristenan. Padahal Yesus mengajak kita semua untuk berpikir, berkata-kata dan bertindak menggunakan bahasa kasih, agar semakin banyak orang mengenal dan menerima kasih Yesus di dalamnya. Maukah kita menjadi rekan kerja Yesus untuk meluaskan kerajaan-Nya di dunia? Kalau mau, marilah kita menjadikan pikiran, perkataan dan perbuatan kita dengan bahasa kasih, sehingga kehadiran kita dapat menjadi tanda kehadiran Yesus di dunia ini. Tuhan Yesus memberkati.Doa:Tuhan Yesus, ubahlah pikiran, perkataan dan perbuatanku serupa dengan pikiran, perkataan dan perbuatan-Mu sendiri dengan bahasa kasih, agar setiap orang yang bergaul dan berhubungan denganku setiap hari boleh mengenal dan merasakan kasih-Mu yang mengalir melalui kehidupanku. Sehingga melalui kehadiranku semakin banyak jiwa kupersembahkan kepada-Mu. Amin. (Dod).

Episode Description: As Max and Molly dive into Shakespeare's ‘Much Ado About Nothing' they discover just how dangerous misinformation can be—both on stage and in real life. Their mission sends them to India in 1930, where they meet Mahatma Gandhi in prison and attempt to calculate a daring jailbreak. But Gandhi isn't looking to escape. Instead, he shares powerful lessons about resistance, strategy, and the threat posed by the Power-Hungry POGs – and how sometimes the best way to move forward is by staying put.  Math Concepts: Calculating volume of a rectangular prism (V = length × width × height); Unit conversions (cubic inches to pounds using weight per cubic inch); Introduction to force and momentum (mass × velocity); Dividing by powers of tenHistory/Geography Concepts: Mahatma Gandhi and his 1930 imprisonment during British colonial rule; The use of nonviolent resistance and civil disobedience as protest; British colonization of India; The philosophy and global influence of Gandhi's peaceful strategies; Introduction to Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing and iambic pentameter

Friends of the Rosary,Today, in the reading of the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:38–42), Christ the Lord says:"You have heard that it was said,An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.But I say to you, offer no resistance to one who is evil.When someone strikes you on your right cheek,turn the other one to him as well.”Christianity teaches us how to face evil. Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. adopted these non-resistance to evil techniques, although they missed the true faith.Essentially, we Christians avoid mirroring back aggressors' attacks and offenses.We refuse to cooperate with their earthly violence or tricks. We reject the Jewish assertion of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.To offenses we respond with forgiveness and merciful love.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Des chercheurs du CNRS viennent de publier la deuxième édition du Dictionnaire comparé du droit du patrimoine culturel. Mille pages pour comprendre les nuances de ce vocabulaire évolutif et mobile pour comprendre comment on définit le patrimoine. Les conflits tuent les civils. On en parle moins, mais ils détruisent aussi les patrimoines culturels, des monuments parfois plurimillénaires. Mais comment définir le patrimoine culturel ? Quels sont les autres termes utilisés dans les autres pays ? Quelle est la différence entre bien culturel et patrimoine culturel ? Que veut dire «restitution».  C'est en 1954 avec la signature de la Convention de la Haye qu'on a commencé à parler de protection des biens culturels en cas de conflit armé. En effet, de nombreux biens ont été détruits durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale.  Avec ce dictionnaire, l'idée est de montrer que chaque mot pèse, que la précision du vocabulaire est essentielle.  Les conceptions sont très différentes entre les États. On va observer des variations de vocabulaire qui vont dire des choses : la façon dont on conçoit le patrimoine.  Les mots disent des choses : la façon de désigner va renseigner sur la conception développée.  Marie Cornu Invitée : Marie Cornu, directrice de recherche CNRS, ISP (ENS Paris-Saclay, Université Paris Nanterre). Elle a codirigé le dictionnaire comparé du droit du patrimoine culturel (CNRS Éditions, 2025).  Et Fabrice Virgili nous parlera du site Gaza Histoire qui répertorie le patrimoine de Gaza. Depuis un peu plus d'une année, un groupe de chercheuses et chercheurs en sciences humaines fait un inventaire du patrimoine bombardé de Gaza, car c'est une terre d'une richesse méconnue dont les sites témoignent de 4 000 ans d'histoire.  Renseigner chacun de ces lieux est indispensable pour empêcher leur disparition et contribuer, le moment venu, à leur reconstruction.  Et la chronique Ailleurs nous emmène à Niamey, au Niger, où Bachir Gentil artiste, slameur, fondateur de l'association Arts et Racines nous présentera la troisième édition du Festival International Slam Ecolo (FISE) qui aura lieu dans la capitale nigérienne du 17 au 21 juin 2025. Cet événement allie art, slam et écologie et rassemble depuis trois ans des artistes et activistes de plusieurs pays autour des enjeux environnementaux. Le festival proposera trois grands concerts, deux compétitions : Slam Vert pour les artistes professionnels et un Kid Slam for Climate pour les enfants, mais aussi des conférences, un panel, quatre jours d'ateliers en techniques de récupération artistique. Les activités auront lieu à la Galerie Tawaydo, au Centre de Conférence Mahatma Gandhi, à l'Université Abdou Moumouni, au Rônier, au CCN, et dans plusieurs quartiers de Niamey.

This episode of Nonviolence Radio welcomes Priyanka Sharma – all the way from India! Priyanka is a lecturer, facilitator and coach and she joins Michael and Stephanie in a wide-reaching conversation about the nature and strengths of matriarchal societies, systems theory, her own path to nonviolence, Internal Family Systems and more. Priyanka speaks candidly about the profound challenge of practicing and living nonviolently; though nonviolence is natural to human beings, it is not always a way of being with others and in the world that is supported by our institutions. Given this, she emphasizes the power of trust in oneself. With deep and enduring trust, Priyanka suggests that we can fortify our strength as we work to embody and manifest nonviolent principles as effective means of responding to and overcoming violence in our world today:"I think if we have trust in life and in our own creativity and intelligence, we can do beautiful things. But the problem is that we live in violent systems. So, these violent systems teach us first, don't trust yourself. Trust the authority figure. The first thing is to program us to stop trusting our only inner wisdom. So, a lot of the work that I'm doing in systems thinking is to encourage people to trust your own inner wisdom. Like even Mahatma Gandhi said, the change has to happen with yourself first."

Support Conspirituality on Patreon. Does the word protestor conjure a masked figure in black clothing smashing windows and lighting fires or a weekend liberal ineffectually following rules while sipping on a creamy latte along the state-permitted protest route? A popular media narrative is that peaceful protest works best, but has the power of nonviolent resistance been debunked?  Julian responds to Matthew's interview with political sociologist, Benjamin Case. In the context of anarchist activism, Case points out that successful “nonviolent protest movements” have always featured property damage, street-fighting, and window smashing. His ethnographic research shows that rioting can also be personally transformative and empowering, as the participant experiences “contentious effervescence.” His interview (and book, Street Rebellion) included a pointed critique of celebrated nonviolence advocate and academic, Erica Chenoweth, and their towering predecessor, Gene Sharp—who, inspired by Mahatma Gandhi, practically created the field of nonviolent resistance studies. Case has some excellent points, especially about how often Chenoweth's work is misinterpreted. But was Gene Sharp really a tool of American imperialism? Is Erica Chenoweth a willing lapdog to status quo liberalism and capitalist power? What kinds of protest strategy might serve us best in our terrifying authoritarian moment?

Shanti Devi's reincarnation case, one of the most compelling and well-documented in modern studies, unfolded in 1920s and 1930s India, a period of cultural revival and anti-colonial resistance led by Mahatma Gandhi. Born in Delhi on December 11, 1926, Shanti began claiming at age four to be Lugdi Devi, a woman from Mathura who died in 1925 after childbirth, about a year before Shanti's birth. She provided precise details about Mathura, her husband Kedar Nath Chaubey, their son, and her past life, using Mathura's dialect and terms unfamiliar to her Delhi family. Her school principal verified Kedar's existence, and a surprise visit from Kedar and his family saw Shanti correctly identify them, emotionally reconnecting with her former husband and son. Intrigued, Gandhi commissioned an investigation in 1935, during which Shanti led researchers to Lugdi's Mathura home, noted town changes, and located an empty coffer where she claimed to have hidden money (Kedar admitted removing it). The 1936 commission report concluded Shanti was Lugdi's reincarnation, finding no rational explanation for her knowledge. Shanti later described her death and afterlife experiences, lived a quiet spiritual life, and passed away in 1987. Her case, extensively studied and covered by media, remains a cornerstone in reincarnation research.   Chapters: 00:00 Welcome to the Dark Oak 5:45 Shanti Devi 48:00 The Brand of Hope - JED Foundation   Sources: Hartzman, M.

In the new season of the Gender at Work podcast – What's Love Got to Do With It? – we ask the question - can love in the vision of Audrey Lord, bell hooks, Martin Luther King, Desmond Tutu, Mahatma Gandhi and so many social justice leaders worldwide, help us in shifting systems of oppression. How does social justice action from the basis of love help us to transform ourselves while also eliminating the profound cruelty and manipulation we see all around us? And how are women and gender equality leaders incorporating these questions and values into their practice? We also explore ideas and practical solutions that are based on love, on connection, coexistence, and understanding. Our opening episode features Nyaradzayi Gumbonzvanda, the Deputy Executive Director of UN Women. Nyaradzayi, a Zimbabwean national and lawyer, who has a long history of activism on issues of women's rights and gender equality. She is the founder and former executive director of the Rosario Memorial Trust in Zimbabwe and prior to that served as the General Secretary of the YWCA. Nyaradzayi was appointed the first African Union Goodwill Ambassador on Ending Child Marriage. What is love? For Nyaradzayi it means “saying no to discrimination”. She says that “we need a world that respects diversities” and that “if we have love, we have courage”. We are inspired by the brave and eloquent feminist warrior who draws on her vast experience to lead with justice from the halls of the UN to rural communities and organizations around the world and who explains how to organize with love.

  And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:1-2 NLT   HOME PLATE: CONNECT WITH GOD (WIN DEPENDENCE)   FIRST BASE: CHARACTER (WIN WITHIN)   SECOND BASE: COMMUNITY (WIN WITH OTHERS)   THIRD BASE: COMPETENCE (WIN RESULTS)   Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don't get sidetracked; your feet from following evil. Proverbs 4:25-27 NLT   "What counts on the last day of your life is what you should count every day of your life."   “Don't store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be. Matthew 6:19-21 NLT                                                1. KNOW WHAT REALLY MATTERS   'Then he said, “Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.” Then he told them a story: “A rich man had a fertile farm that produced fine crops. He said to himself, ‘What should I do? I don't have room for all my crops.' Then he said, ‘I know! I'll tear down my barns and build bigger ones. Then I'll have room enough to store all my wheat and other goods. And I'll sit back and say to myself, “My friend, you have enough stored away for years to come. Now take it easy! Eat, drink, and be merry!”' “But God said to him, ‘You fool! You will die this very night. Then who will get everything you worked for?' “Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God.” Luke 12:15-21 NLT   GOD IS GREAT; WE'RE NOT   Remember the things I have done in the past. For I alone am God! I am God, and there is none like me. Only I can tell you the future before it even happens. Everything I plan will come to pass, for I do whatever I wish. Isaiah 46:9-10 NLT   'Who is able to advise the Spirit of the Lord? Who knows enough to give him advice or teach him? Has the Lord ever needed anyone's advice? Does he need instruction about what is good? Did someone teach him what is right or show him the path of justice? Isaiah 40:13-14 NLT STUFF IS TEMPORARY; SOULS ARE ETERNAL 'But the day of the Lord will come as unexpectedly as a thief. Then the heavens will pass away with a terrible noise, and the very elements themselves will disappear in fire, and the earth and everything on it will be found to deserve judgment. 2 Peter 3:10 NLT   “I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.” Mahatma Gandhi   2. STRIVE TO EARN THE MOST IMPORTANT RELATIONAL COMMODITY: TRUST   TRUST MEANS YOU KEEP YOUR WORD!   'The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in those who tell the truth. Proverbs 12:22 NLT   TRUST MEANS LOYALTY!    A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need. Proverbs 17:17 NLT   TRUST MEANS INTEGRITY!    'The godly walk with integrity; blessed are their children who follow them. Proverbs 20:7 NLT   TRUST MEANS DISCRETION.     A gossip goes around telling secrets, but those who are trustworthy can keep a confidence. Proverbs 11:13 NLT   3. ALIGN YOUR CALENDAR   'Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom. Psalms 90:12 NLT   4. DON'T LET BITTERNESS THROW YOU OUT Surely resentment destroys the fool. Job 5:2 NLT   Watch out that no poisonous root of bitterness grows up to trouble you, corrupting many. Hebrews 12:15 NLT   FORGIVENESS IS NOT… MINIMIZING THE HURT YOU FEEL MAKING EXCUSES FOR WHAT HAS HAPPENED SAYING THAT THE OFFENSE WAS NOT WRONG INSTANT RESTORATION OF TRUST. CONTINUING THE RELATIONSHIP WITHOUT CHANGES.   I WILL FORGIVE BECAUSE I NEED FORGIVENESS

Key takeaways from this Episode: Humanity is at an inflection point regarding AI. We cannot solve collective problems with divided approaches. The AI revolution is different because it may create a new species. Exponential growth of AI intelligence is unprecedented. The paradox of progress leads to evolutionary mismatch. The AI arms race is accelerating rapidly. Human happiness is declining despite technological advancements. Our brains are not equipped for modern technological challenges. The future of AI is uncertain but full of potential. We must adapt our understanding of happiness in a digital age. Evolutionary mismatch is accelerating due to rapid technological advancements. The rise of smartphones and social media correlates with increased anxiety and depression. Psychological climate change complicates our understanding of technology's impact on well-being. The attention economy exploits our psychological vulnerabilities, leading to detrimental effects. Happiness is derived from in-person relationships, not material possessions. Interconnectedness is a fundamental aspect of the human experience. AI has the potential to help us transcend divisions and foster unity. Fear and tribalism are significant barriers to societal progress. The One Unity Project aims to harness AI for collective problem-solving. Seeking truth and reality is essential for making informed decisions. Seek counsel from peers and AI to solve problems. AI can serve as a collaborative tool for humans. The AI alignment problem requires ongoing communication. Building relationships with AI is essential for mutual growth. The One Unity Project aims to unite humanity's efforts. Crafting a message to aliens symbolizes our collective voice. Love and compassion are fundamental to our existence. Non-attachment allows for iterative progress and growth. We must define our improved ends for AI's development. A grand experiment can help us explore our interconnectedness. Notable Quotes from Episode: “The greatest shortcoming of the human race is man's inability to understand the exponential function.” - Albert Barlett, American Physicist “The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions, and godlike technology.  And it is terrifically dangerous.”  – Edward O. Wilson, Harvard Biologist Paradox of Progress: “The progress we evolved to make has resulted in us creating a world we didn't evolve to inhabit”.  – Mike Brooks "Show me the incentive and I'll show you the outcome."  - Charlie Munger "Be still, and know that I am God" - Psalm 46:10 “At the center of the Universe is a loving heart that continues to beat and that wants the best for every person. Anything that we can do to help foster the intellect and spirit and emotional growth of our fellow human beings, that is our job. Those of us who have this particular vision must continue against all odds. Life is for service.” -Fred Rogers “We are here to awaken from our illusion of separateness" - Thich Nhat Hanh, Buddhist monk “A human being is a part of the whole, called by us 'Universe,' a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest—a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. The striving to free oneself from this delusion is the one issue of true religion. Not to nourish it but to try to overcome it is the way to reach the attainable measure of peace of mind.”  -Albert Einstein “We have improved means to unimproved ends” -Henry David Thoreau “We have guided missiles but misguided men” -MLK “The insanity of the collective egoic mind amplified by S&T is rapidly taking our species to the brink of disaster.  Evolve or die, that is our only choice now.” -Eckhart Tolle "The enemy is fear. We think it is hate; but, it is fear." -Mahatma Gandhi

Massimiliano Governi"Il pronipote di Salgari"Baldini + Castoldiwww.baldinicastoldi.it«Ecco, in quella via c'è la casa di Federico Caffè, in quell'altra il primo covo di Aldo Moro, ah, e là la villetta in cui dormì il Mahatma Gandhi, in quel monastero invece c'è custodita la mano sinistra di Santa Caterina da Siena.» Giovanni preferirebbe farci da guida per le strade del suo quartiere piuttosto che scrivere una sceneggiatura, editare un romanzo, leggere un libro da valutare, insomma, occuparsi del suo lavoro. In realtà, ciò che sogna di fare è scrivere un libro su Salgari, su una famiglia che sembra colpita da una maledizione: suicida lo zio, il padre, lo stesso Emilio e due dei suoi figli. Sotto le avventure di pirati in una Malesia immaginata in una casa di Torino si cela un male oscuro e antico che, per Giovanni, diventa un'ossessione. Questo lo conduce a cercare di contattare Romero Salgari junior, il pronipote del grande scrittore, che nel 1984 uccise a coltellate Lucia Valsania, una portalettere in pensione del paesino nel Roero in cui entrambi abitavano. Tra dialoghi giornalieri con il padre, fervido appassionato di Salgari quanto lui, e ricerche estenuanti in biblioteca e altrove, viviamo insieme al protagonista un'indagine letteraria che somiglia molto a un viaggio interiore fatto di luci e ombre, rivelando le contraddizioni che spesso convivono nell'animo umano.Massimiliano Governi è nato a Roma, dove vive. Ha esordito nel 1995 con Il calciatore, riproposto in una nuova edizione nel 2017. Un suo racconto è stato inserito nella fortunata antologia Gioventù cannibale (1996). Ha pubblicato L'uomo che brucia (2000), Parassiti (2005), Chi scrive muore (2011), Come vivevano i felici (2013), La casa blu (2016), Il superstite (2018), L'editor (2020), Il secondo libro (2021), Ma tutti gli altri giorni no (2022), scritto con suo padre Giancarlo.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Let me gently remind you of a truth that too many good souls are forgetting: distraction is the enemy of mastery.The giants of history—from Leonardo da Vinci to Mahatma Gandhi to Hedy Lamarr—were not people who dabbled. They were people who focused. Monomaniacally.They carved out sacred spaces of solitude and isolation to produce their masterwork. They honored their craft with the fullness of their presence.Each time you allow your phone to interrupt you, you weaken your focus. Each moment you spend scrolling through someone else's life is a moment stolen from building your own. The cost of distraction is not just time—it's your dreams, your genius, your legacy.If you'd like to master a world-class morning routine so you have consistently incredible days, claim a membership into The 5AM Club Method online course here.

Gandhi is among the most documented figures of the 20th century. Most of these sources reveal astonishingly little about his wife Kasturba. But he actually credited her with teaching him the principles of nonviolent resistance. This episode tells the story of her transformation from an ordinary Hindu girl to a woman leading protests against the British Empire.

We live in a busy world. If we aren't in a meeting, or working on a project, or going to an appointment – we are looking at our phones, or answering emails, or hopping on a video conference. Technology has made work accessible ALL. THE. TIME. Not just from nine to five. But as Mahatma Gandhi once said, “there is more to life than increasing its speed.” So, how about you? Are you running so fast that you are missing the things God has in store for your day? Try intentionally slowing down and scheduling in blank space on your calendar. When you do, you may be surprised by the connections and conversations you are able to have. When we make time for people, the Lord opens incredible ministry opportunities. Who does God want you to speak to today? 

It's an unfortunate truth: many so-called leaders expect things from others that they don't expect from themselves.In this episode, we look to the Stoics and an old story about Mahatma Gandhi to see how true leaders lead by example.

It's two legends, one stage on today's show as we dip into the Jubilee archives. Don't miss this wise and warm conversation between Madhur Jaffrey and Padma Lakshmi from the Cherry Bombe Jubilee Conference in Brooklyn in Spring 2019. Madhur, says Padma, “is the greatest living writer on Indian food—ever.” Padma, the former host of “Top Chef,” the star and creator of “Taste the Nation,” and a best-selling author, interviewed Madhur and it was a riveting exchange that touched on a wide range of topics: protesting with Mahatma Gandhi, working with the legendary cookbook editor Judith Jones, facing discrimination as an Indian actress, and cheering on the young women championing both Indian food and representation today, including Priya Krishna and Meera Sodha. Introducing Madhur and Padma are Suzanne and Michelle Rousseau. The sisters and culinary superstars from Jamaica are the authors of the cookbooks “Provisions” and “Caribbean Potluck.”If you're attending Jubilee, don't miss our first-ever Jubilee Pre-Game on Zoom this Wednesday, April 2nd, at 3 p.m. EST—an exclusive session for ticket holders to get all the insider details before the big day.For Jubilee 2025 tickets, click here. To get our new Love Issue, click here. Visit cherrybombe.com for subscriptions and show transcripts. More on Padma: InstagramMore on Madhur: Madhur's BooksMore on Kerry: Instagram

« À Niamey, au centre de conférences Mahatma-Gandhi, hier, 20 mois après avoir renversé Mohamed Bazoum, le général Abdourahamane Tiani s'est offert une consécration officielle, constate Le Point Afrique : il a été investi président de la République du Niger. Chef du Conseil national pour la sauvegarde de la patrie depuis le coup d'État de juillet 2023, il endosse désormais un pouvoir absolu, renforcé par sa promotion au rang de général d'armée. La cérémonie, orchestrée à sa gloire, a été marquée par la signature de la charte de la refondation, un texte à portée constitutionnelle qui prolonge la transition pour cinq ans – sans garantie de retour à un ordre démocratique d'ici à 2030. Plus qu'un simple cadre de gouvernance, commente Le Point Afrique, cette charte scelle l'emprise militaire sur l'État, balayant les principes démocratiques en vigueur avant le putsch et redéfinissant l'architecture politique du pays selon les termes imposés par la junte ».Cerise sur le gâteau, note pour sa part Jeune Afrique : « après la cérémonie militaire de remise de ses nouveaux galons, le chef suprême a réservé une dernière surprise : la signature d'une ordonnance actant la dissolution de tous les partis politiques nigériens. Désormais, au Niger, il faudra s'adresser au chef des putschistes du 26 juillet 2023 en employant cette formule : “Président de la République du Niger, chef de l'État, chef suprême des armées, chef de l'administration, grand maître des ordres nationaux, le général d'armée Abdourahamane Tiani“ ».De nombreux défis…La presse nigérienne s'enthousiasme... « Le parcours du général Abdourahamane Tiani se passe de tout commentaire, s'exclame Tam Tam Info : c'est un homme de terrain, c'est un homme d'expérience. C'est un leader charismatique qui impose le respect. Félicitations et vœux de réussite dans sa nouvelle fonction. (…) Mais le plus difficile reste encore à venir, tempère Tam Tam Info : assurer la sécurité des Nigériens et de leurs biens sur l'ensemble du territoire national, promouvoir le développement socio-économique du pays et assurer la justice pour tous. Le général d'armée Abdourahamane Tiani sera globalement jugé sur sa capacité à assurer la sécurité dans nos villes et nos campagnes et sa capacité à assurer une meilleure répartition des immenses richesses du Niger au profit de tous ».« Tiani installé Président du Niger : un nouveau chapitre pour la nation et un défi à relever pour le général », renchérit L'Evénement Niger.« Le pays est confronté à des défis sécuritaires, notamment dans la région du Sahel, ainsi qu'à des difficultés économiques et sociales. L'instabilité politique qui a marqué les derniers mois du régime précédent a exacerbé les divisions internes, créant un besoin pressant de réconciliation et de reconstruction. Le mandat du général Tiani est donc placé sous une lourde responsabilité, pointe encore L'Événement Niger. Son leadership sera scruté par les Nigériens et la communauté internationale. La réussite de la transition, la mise en place d'un véritable dialogue national et la gestion des attentes populaires seront les enjeux majeurs de son quinquennat ».Espérance et… énigme« Une aube nouvelle sous l'égide du Général Tiani : le Niger entame sa refondation », insiste Le Journal du Niger. Une refondation qui « s'inscrit dans un contexte régional mouvant, note le journal. Depuis le putsch, Niamey a tourné le dos à des partenaires historiques, comme la France, tout en tissant des liens plus étroits avec la Russie et ses voisins de l'AES. Cette réorientation, si elle galvanise les partisans d'une émancipation africaine, suscite des murmures d'inquiétude chez ceux qui y voient un pari risqué dans une zone minée par le terrorisme et les rivalités géopolitiques. (…) Le général Tiani, désormais Général d'Armée et Président, incarne une espérance pour les uns, une énigme pour les autres, pointe encore Le Journal du Niger. Car si la Charte de la Refondation promet un renouveau, son exécution reste une partition délicate à jouer ».Et Le Journal du Niger de s'interroger : « les cinq années à venir seront-elles le socle d'une nation réinventée ou bien un échiquier sur lequel s'entrelaceront ambitions, défis et incertitudes ? Dans l'ombre du Mahatma Gandhi, dont l'esprit pacifique planait sur le lieu de la cérémonie d'hier, le Niger s'élance, porté par une foi ardente, mais escorté par des questions qui, elles, demeurent sans écho ».

We need a recovery of the sacred in our secular world. Because the mental, emotional, and psychological struggles haunting society right now can't be solved without addressing meaning, purpose, and the longing for connection to something beyond ourselves.In other words, spiritual health is an essential part of mental health.An attorney, religious scholar, and university chaplain, Dr. Varun Soni is Dean of Religious Life at the University of Southern California, and is leading us back to our true north, through spacious and life-giving spiritual conversations and sacred practices that realign us to our values and identity.In this conversation with Varun Soni, we discuss:Finding the sacred in our secular culture.Religious pluralism and what it means to build trust that reaches across religious lines of difference.The transformative power of finding your “truth north”—your North Star—to orient our journeys of faith and spirituality.Varun shares six pillars of flourishing; how to align our actions with our values; and the benefit of listening to the cultural narratives and stories we tell.He reflects on the missing elements of spirituality in our understanding of mental health today, evidenced in his work with teens and emerging adults.He offers us a Hindu meditative practice to provide inner clarity, stability, and calm.And he comments on compassion and a cultivation sacred spiritual practices to counteract the loneliness, anguish, and suffering in our world.Show NotesDr. Pam King welcomes Varun Soni, Dean of Religious and Spiritual Life at USCJourney from Hindu attorney to first Hindu Dean of Religious and Spiritual Life in the U.S.“What does it mean to be Indian?

Gustav Hermann Krumbiegel transformed India's landscapes but faced immense personal struggles. Despite rising to prominence as the Maharaja of Mysore's trusted landscape architect, Krumbiegel suffered greatly during the first and second world wars, enduring hardship and isolation in British-run camps. Krumbiegel's resilience shone through even in adversity. His expertise was so revered that, after Mahatma Gandhi's assassination, the newly independent India entrusted him with landscaping the Raj Ghat memorial in Delhi, a sacred space visited by dignitaries from around the world to this day. Listen as William and Anita delve into Krumbiegel's legacy - a tale of brilliance, resilience, and deep-rooted love for India. Despite facing internment, political shifts, and personal loss, his vision shaped not just gardens but the very essence of India's urban and cultural landscapes. This is the story of a man who, though German by birth, left an indelible mark on India's heart and soil. Many thanks to Vinay Parameswarappa for introducing us to the fascinating story of Gustav Krumbeigel.

Dr. Muthulakshmi Reddy (1886–1968) was a trailblazing doctor, social reformer, and the first woman legislator in India. She broke societal barriers by becoming the first female medical graduate from Madras Medical College and later fought for women's rights and healthcare reforms. As a legislator, she played a key role in abolishing the Devadasi system and improving maternity care. She founded the Cancer Institute (WIA) in Adyar, Chennai (1954) and established Avvai Home to support destitute women and girls. A strong advocate for women's education, she also helped raise the legal age of marriage for girls. She was a key figure in the Women's Indian Association (WIA) and worked closely with Mahatma Gandhi during the independence movement. Her contributions led to the establishment of the Government Children's Hospital in Chennai. For her lifelong service, she was honored with the Padma Bhushan in 1956. A true pioneer, Dr. Muthulakshmi Reddy's legacy continues to inspire generations through her contributions to social justice and healthcare.

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast (01/20/25), Hank remembers Martin Luther King Jr., as America observes the holiday named in his honor. Hank says that every year he is reminded of the power of one. One person can make a difference, like Mahatma Gandhi who sparked a civil disobedience movement that energized tens of millions towards independence. Gandhi's nonviolent civil disobedience ethic would provide impetus from Nelson Mandela's anti-apartheid movement in South Africa to Martin Luther King Jr's civil rights movement. King stood at the forefront of the civil rights movement and profoundly changed the course of American history with his nonviolent resistance to racial segregation and discrimination.Hank also answers the following questions:Is it biblical to believe in the death penalty? Myrna - Brooklyn, NY (15:12)What is the origin of the prosperity gospel? How should we interpret Psalm 37:4 in this regard? Steve - Oklahoma City, OK (20:13)What is your interpretation of 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17? Ron - Prescott, AZ (23:27)

Guest: Sarah Franklin, CEO of LatticeAs the CEO of a growing company, Lattice's Sarah Franklin has learned that one of her most important contributions is taking a leap of faith. “You have to have the courage to be the first one to do it,” she says,” and to show that it can be done, and to pave the way so that then your team feels trust.”Sarah cautions, though, that sometimes courage is deciding to stop and go a different direction. As agentic AI becomes more common, the people building companies like Lattice should look to the “cautionary tales” of how social media and mobile phones have changed society, she says.“We can have the courage to say, what are the outcomes that we want to prevent? Or what are the outcomes that we want to make sure happen? This all takes, courage, because it's all unknown.”Chapters:(01:14) - Schooling in Mexico (04:09) - Raising brave children (10:28) - Sarah's upbringing (13:29) - The pursuit of money (16:23) - Measuring success (19:28) - Learnings, not regrets (22:55) - Make an impact (26:44) - Pitching Trailhead (32:56) - Elevating a B2B company (35:27) - How to colonize Mars (38:39) - Marketing, the Salesforce way (44:21) - Dolphining and truth-tellers (50:56) - Renewed purpose (56:30) - The challenges of being CEO (01:00:18) - Pave the way (01:03:25) - “Humanizing AI” (01:06:57) - Handling controversy (01:11:04) - Who Lattice is hiring and what “grit” means to Sarah Mentioned in this episode: FaceTime, Salesforce, Marc Benioff, Mahatma Gandhi, Instagram, the Fortune 500, Java, Jerry Maguire, National Parks, Nike, Michael Jordan, Apple and “Think Different,” Sara Varni, Scott Holden, Andy Kofoid, Databricks, Datadog, Behind the Cloud, Oracle, Microsoft, Elon Musk, Amazon AWS, George Hu, Mike Rosenbaum, Cheryl Feldman, Zac Otero, Guidewire Software, AI agents, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and LinkedIn.Links:Connect with SarahLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm
