Hosts and guests hunt dove and pigeons in Yuma along the border wall, contend with a surprise monsoon that floods fields and slows the birds, and share stories of canal rescues, helicopter flyovers, and late‑night pool antics.

Episode Summary This episode of the "90 Miles from Needles" podcast does a racing dive into the fascinating topic of monsoonal rainstorms in the desert, focusing on their effects and significance. With detailed insights into recent rain events in Twentynine Palms, California, Chris shares the challenges and celebrations that accompany these powerful meteorological phenomena. Amid the backdrop of a biome shaped by water scarcity, the podcast explores both the danger and the necessity of monsoon rains, sparking reflections on desert life and conservation. Clarke elaborates on how water, despite its scarcity, is the primary sculptor of desert landscapes and essential for the survival of unique flora and fauna. He details the local impact of monsoonal rains on infrastructure and wildlife, emphasizing the importance of respecting and preparing for these natural events. Key Takeaways: Monsoonal rainstorms are pivotal in shaping and maintaining the unique ecosystems of deserts. Deserts are defined by their lack of water, with meteorological events like monsoons highlighting the delicate balance between scarcity and abundance in these environments. Human safety during monsoonal rains is paramount, as flash floods pose a significant risk to life and property, underscoring the importance of mindful interaction with desert landscapes. An engaging description of the scent of wet creosote after a monsoon provides a sensory glimpse into the captivating transformations brought about by these rainstorms. Environmental advocacy and awareness are crucial for protecting desert ecosystems from threats and promoting sustainable interactions with these fragile areas. Notable Quotes: "Monsoons are a reminder that the best days in the desert are full of passionate intensity, while the worst lack all convection." "For every thousand people celebrating a monsoon, one person gets really badly damaged, sometimes through no fault of their own." "When the monsoon comes, it's hard not to celebrate." "Water is like currency in the desert. It's scarce, and therefore, it's valuable." "Desert varnish and playa, even the visual symbol of how deserts are dry, got there because there used to be water there."

'We get very angry when rain disrupts our lives and brings our cities to a halt, but by the time the elections come around, we have forgotten how angry we were. Rarely, if ever, do these urban failures or the corruption and political ineptitude that lead to them swing an election. We vote instead for caste, for religion or for some conception of national interest. Governance simply does not matter. Politicians know this. So even as we rage and vent as we have been doing over the last few weeks, they chuckle to themselves and go back to counting their money. In the old days, they would at least offer token apologies. Now they don't even bother to do that. They just announce that schools will close for two days or urge us to work from home. And we let them get away with it. So let's not blame politicians alone. Let's ask ourselves why we don't demand more accountability from them.' says Author & ThePrint Columnist Vir Sanghvi.

On a soft monsoon evening, the sky streaked with golden bands, tropical clouds drawn up from the Sea of Cortez, everything is vibrant, delirious light. No sound but the crunch of boots and dog paws in the sandy wash lined with desert willow and Mormon tea, before we climb up to the mesa and through a high-desert forest of Joshua trees and Juniper. We sit for a while, at sunset: Great Apollo blazing over western mountains.Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/desertoracleSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fluent Fiction - Hindi: A Monsoon's Paintbrush: Unveiling Art and Bonds Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hi/episode/2025-08-09-22-34-02-hi Story Transcript:Hi: बारिश की बूंदें खिड़कियों पर मद्धम संगीत बजा रही थीं, जब छात्रों का समूह नेशनल आर्ट गैलरी में दाखिल हुआ।En: The raindrops were playing a soft tune on the windows as the group of students entered the National Art Gallery.Hi: मोनसून की नमी से बचने के लिए यह जगह एक शानदार शरण थी।En: It was a splendid refuge to escape from the monsoon's dampness.Hi: गैलरी के अंदर, रंग-बिरंगी पेंटिंग्स की कतारें थीं जो गीले खिड़कियों की प्रतिकृति से जीवंत हो उठती थीं।En: Inside the gallery, there were rows of colorful paintings that came alive with the reflection of the wet windows.Hi: इस कला के संग्रहालय में, आरव ने हमेशा से एक खास चित्र को तक देखा था।En: In this art museum, Aarav had always been drawn to a particular painting.Hi: उस विशेष पेंटिंग से उसे अपने परिवार की यादें जुड़ी लगती थीं।En: It reminded him of memories with his family.Hi: वह बताना चाहता था कि वह चित्र उसके लिए कितना खास है, खासकर राखी के इस त्योहार पर जो भाई-बहन के बंधन का प्रतीक है।En: He wanted to express how special that painting was to him, especially during Raksha Bandhan, the festival symbolizing the bond between brother and sister.Hi: परन्तु उसकी मन की इस बात को साझा करने की हिम्मत अब तक नहीं जुटा पाया था।En: But he had not yet gathered the courage to share his heartfelt sentiments.Hi: आरव की बहन, काम्या, उत्साहित थी लेकिन उसे यह भी लगता था कि वह हमेशा आरव की छाया में रहती है।En: Aarav's sister, Kamya, was excited but also felt that she always remained in her brother's shadow.Hi: समूह में रोहन भी था, आरव का जिंदादिल और मस्तीखोर दोस्त, जो हमेशा मजाक करता रहता था।En: Among the group was Rohan, Aarav's lively and mischievous friend, who was always cracking jokes.Hi: लेकिन वह अपने भीतर की रचनात्मकता के बारे में असमंजस में रहता था।En: However, he was unsure about his own creativity.Hi: समूह आगे बढ़ा और आरव के दिल के करीब उस पेंटिंग के सामने रुका।En: The group moved forward and stopped in front of the painting close to Aarav's heart.Hi: उसी पल, आरव ने निर्णय लिया कि वह अपनी भावनाओं को व्यक्त करेगा।En: At that moment, Aarav decided that he would express his feelings.Hi: उसने गहरी सांस ली और सबके सामने खड़ा हो गया।En: He took a deep breath and stood before everyone.Hi: उसकी आवाज हल्की थी परंतु पूरे आत्मविश्वास के साथ, उसने पेंटिंग की कहानियाँ बता दी।En: His voice was soft but full of confidence, as he narrated the stories of the painting.Hi: "यह पेंटिंग मुझे राखी के त्योहार की याद दिलाती है," आरव ने कहा।En: "This painting reminds me of the Raksha Bandhan festival," Aarav said.Hi: "रिश्तों की अहमियत, रक्षा का भाव और वो अटूट बंधन... यह पेंटिंग मेरे लिए एक पारिवारिक धरोहर है।"En: "The importance of relationships, the emotion of protection, and that unbreakable bond... this painting is a family heritage for me."Hi: उसकी आवाज में गहराई थी जो सबके दिल तक जा पहुंची।En: His voice carried a depth that touched everyone's hearts.Hi: काम्या ने अपने भाई पर गर्व से देखा और उसकी आँखों में खुशी की चमक आ गई।En: Kamya looked at her brother with pride, and her eyes sparkled with joy.Hi: रोहन ने महसूस किया कि असली कला अपने व्यक्तिगत अनुभवों को साझा करने में है।En: Rohan realized that true art lies in sharing personal experiences.Hi: उनके लिए यह पल विशेष था, इस मोनसून के मौसम में गैलरी के भीतर का अपना संसार।En: For them, this was a special moment, their own world inside the gallery during the monsoon season.Hi: आरव ने अपनी बात कहकर न केवल अपनी भावनाओं को स्वतंत्र किया बल्कि अपने करीबी लोगों के साथ नया और गहरा जुड़ाव बनाया।En: By expressing his thoughts, Aarav not only freed his emotions but also created a new and deeper connection with his loved ones.Hi: इस अनुभव ने आरव को अपनी भावनाएं खुलकर व्यक्त करने की शक्ति दी, काम्या को अपने भाई की नई पहलु का अनुभव कराया, और रोहन को यह विश्वास दिलाया कि उसकी अपनी रचनात्मकता भी विशेष है।En: This experience gave Aarav the strength to express his emotions openly, allowed Kamya to experience a new aspect of her brother, and convinced Rohan that his own creativity was also special.Hi: जब वे गैलरी से बाहर निकले, तो उनके दिलों में बंधन और मजबूत हो चुका था, जैसे मोनसून की बारिश के बाद की ताजी हवा।En: When they stepped out of the gallery, the bonds in their hearts had grown stronger, like the fresh air after a monsoon rain.

In this episode, “Truth is a Pathless Land,” we speak with Transformative Inquiry Program faculty member Connie Jones to explore the micropolitical stakes of revolutionary spirituality through Krishnamurti's challenge to religious prescription, psychological conditioning, and egoic identification. We discuss techniqueless meditation, the primacy of awareness over truth, and the distinction between perception and cognition as a path beyond the representational mind. Our conversation engages the unknown as the ground of creativity and examines how culturally conditioned individualism is challenged by non-dual insights. We also explore Bohmian Dialogue as a transformative practice aligned with Krishnamurti's vision—an open, non-hierarchical mode of collective inquiry that suspends judgment and cultivates shared attention. Through this lens, we consider how his praxis opens onto a micro-political awareness capable of generating new forms of being and transformation beyond all systems of conditioning. Connie Jones, Ph.D., is a sociologist of religion who joined CIIS in 1994, having taught at several colleges and theology schools. Beginning with her doctoral dissertation on the caste system in India, she has pursued a long interest in the cultures and religions of the East, including the adoption of Hindu and Buddhist beliefs and practices in the West. She researches spiritual teachers as well as the evolution of new religious movements around the world. Throughout her career in higher education, she has helped establish women's studies departments and curricula in several colleges and has published research on women's status in India and feminist methods. She has been a member of a multidisciplinary team of scholars that investigates new religious movements around the world and has published articles on movements that are based on Eastern religious belief and practice. At present, Constance has a book, Krishnamurti: Self-Inquiry, Awakening, and Transformation, in press with Cambridge University Press. In this volume she outlines the life and teaching of the enigmatic 20th century philosopher and teacher J. Krishnamurti. She serves in scholarly positions with the Gurdjieff Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man (2017- present) Tbilisi, Georgia and the Publications Committee of the Krishnamurti Foundation of America (2018-present), Ojai, California.
