Welcome to the thought-provoking #RawTalks Telugu Podcast, where we dive deep into critical societal issues and engage in fearless conversations. In this episode, we explore some of the most pressing questions that stir the minds of many. Join us as we unravel the intricacies surrounding caste discrimination, the reservation system, government jobs, education, and their profound implications. Is caste discrimination the breeding ground of Naxalism? This question forms the core of our discourse. We delve into the complex interplay between social inequality, economic disparity, and the rise of Naxalism. With insights from experts and historical context, we aim to shed light on whether caste-based discrimination fuels this socio-political movement. The longevity of the reservation system sparks curiosity. How many generations will it span? This intricate query has puzzled many. Through analysis and historical context, we aim to navigate the horizon of this reservation system, exploring its evolution and potential future. The dichotomy between government jobs and education from government institutions is a paradox worth contemplating. Why is the demand for government jobs disproportionately high compared to the quality of education offered by government institutions? We dissect this phenomenon to understand its underlying factors and consequences. The 10:90 vs. 90:10 percentage ratio of the reservation system is a topic of debate. Does this system genuinely empower the marginalized, or does it inadvertently hinder efficiency and meritocracy? We delve into contrasting perspectives, dissecting the pros and cons of this approach. The allure of job security can overshadow the importance of efficiency and skills. Are we sacrificing excellence for stability? We examine how this dilemma impacts workforce dynamics and the overall progress of a society. Joining us for this enlightening conversation is Dr. RS Praveen, an Ex-IPS officer and President of BSP, Telangana. With a deep commitment to enhancing the quality of education in government schools, Dr. Praveen has left an indelible mark. His remarkable achievement is exemplified by his mentee, "Poorna," who achieved the distinction of becoming the youngest mountaineer to conquer Mount Everest. This podcast isn't just a discussion; it's an immersive journey into the heart of burning questions. Dr. Praveen's insights and experiences provide a unique lens through which we explore the multifaceted dimensions of these issues. Prepare to have your perspectives challenged, your curiosity ignited, and your understanding expanded. Keywords: caste discrimination, Naxalism, reservation system, government jobs, education, social inequality, economic disparity, efficiency, meritocracy, job security, BSP Telangana, Dr. RS Praveen, Poorna, burning questions, societal issues, perspectives, insights, fearless conversations. Tune in to this captivating episode for an adventure of the mind and soul, as we seek to unravel the mysteries that shape our society and challenge the status quo.

Typical village savior movie but most of the tropes like separate comedy track, hacking goons, making villain bakras and uniting a families and waiting for the Devudu to come save them aren't there. The movie keeps going as per story requirement. Negatives are the emotions aren't as strong. Not sure if its the writing or the villainy, but you're not as emotionally invested.

Over the Christmas period and into January I'm going to be replaying some of my quiet favourite episodes of 2022. This week's, journalist, power-lifter and body image and mental health activist, Poorna Bell, is just the tonic if you're having a January moment. This episode first aired in July.---By her own admission, today's guest, award winning journalist Poorna Bell, wasn't looking forward to 40. She feared, as society had taught her, that it might be the beginning of the end. And so, she set out to prove herself wrong. Poorna has written two memoirs about grief and mental health in the wake of her husband, Rob's death by suicide. And followed those up with Stronger, an inspiring reevaluation of women's strength interwoven with her own discovery of power lifting (I kid you not. This woman could bench press Johnny Depp - but I fear she'd have to join the queue.) It's no surprise that Poorna has become an advocate for diversity, mental health and body image. Now she's turned her hand to fiction. Her debut novel, In Case Of Emergency is a warm, funny, immensely entertaining story of friendship, sisterhood, being single in a couples world and a brown woman in a white world.Poorna joined me to talk about taking back power, finding her strength and how fitness changed her. Why she's all in favour of marriage but has no plans to get back on the relationship escalator, why ageing is her superpower, finding clarity post-40, her search for midlife role models as a brown woman and embracing being a 40something goddess.You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at Bookshop.org, including IN CASE OF EMERGENCY by Poorna Bell, and the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me!And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including transcripts of the podcast, please join The Shift community.

We explore why so many of us want to put our lives on the page. Can writing stand in for therapy? What are the ethical and moral considerations of such sharing. Julia Samuel is a psychotherapist and the author of Grief Works. Dr Lin Berwick MBE has cerebral palsy quadriplegia and became totally blind at the age of 15. She also has partial hearing loss and is a permanent wheelchair user. Now in her seventies, she has been a fierce advocate and ambassador for people with disabilities and their carers, and has written a new book On A Count of Three all about what it's like having a carer - and what she thinks carers should know. Military mums rally in protest at the decision to award former Prime Minister Tony Blair a knighthood. Hazel Hunt, whose son Richard died in Afghanistan, is considering sending back the Elizabeth Cross that her family had received as a mark of protest. Many of us will be thinking about making a change for the better now that we're in a new year. Poorna Bell, author and journalist, gives us some inspiration and talks about getting stronger, both emotionally and physically. Poorna took it literally and started weight lifting after illness and bereavement.

The personal memoir is the story of one man’s journey with mental health told by the woman who loved him. Poorna's third book, Stronger, came out last week. The part manifesto, part memoir is inspired by Poorna's journey to find physical strength following her husband's passing, after which she became a competitive powerlifter and the book aims the help lay a roadmap for how women can tap into their own physical and mental strength.

CW: brief mention of suicide.Poorna Bell (she/her) is an award-winning journalist, digital editorial expert, three-time author, mental health ambassador and badass power-lifter. This month sees the release of her fantastic new book: “Stronger: Changing Everything I Knew About Women's Strength”. Part memoir, part manifesto, this book starts a conversation about women’s strength and fitness, tapping into the reservoir of mental strength we each have, in a way that has absolutely nothing to do with weight loss. Poorna shares her own story, as well as drawing on research and telling the stories of other women who’ve forged their own path. This book is intersectional, refreshing and a necessary interrogation of the health and fitness industry, as well as the government’s role when it comes to mental health. I absolutely LOVED it.In this episode, we discuss diet culture, mental health, the government's co-opting of the mental health movement during the pandemic, the menopause, representation and more.Find Poorna on Twitter @PoornaBellFind Poorna on Instagram: @PoornaBellPre-order her book: StrongerFollow her community: @SeeMyStrongPoorna’s book recommendation: Luster by Raven LeilaniThank you to REN Clean Skincare for sponsoring this episode.

Author and scholar Usha Iyer talks to dancer Poorna Swami about the rich history of women dancing in Hindi cinema. Usha and Poorna explore the agency and power dynamics that various Indian actors and dancers had over the decades, how dancing in cinema can be seen as a continuation of various dance traditions in India, and discuss the roles played by important women like Vyjayanthimala, Helen, Madhuri Dixit and Saroj Khan. Usha Iyer is an assistant professor of film and media studies at Stanford University. She is the author of Dancing Women: Choreographing Corporeal Histories of Indian Cinema (Oxford University Press, 2020).  Usha’s research and teaching interests lie at the intersection of cinema, performance, and gender and sexuality studies, with a specific focus on film and performance histories, body cultures, and Global South cultural traffic along the vectors of race, gender, caste, and religion. Poorna Swami is an independent writer, choreographer and dancer based in Bangalore. At the age of seven, she began training in the classical Indian dance form Bharatanatyam, before extending her training to contemporary dance and post-modern techniques.  Poorna has previously hosted two episodes of BIC Talks: #28 with Rahul Rao about the politics and morality of taking down problematic statues; and #35 with Annie Zaidi about home, belonging, displacement and identity.  BIC Talks is brought to you by the Bangalore International Centre.

#20 Poornamurti: Viewing Music Therapy through an Ayurvedic Lens

The Healthy Peaceful Podcast

Welcome to this presentation by Poornamurti (Greg Stein) as he reveals the connection between Ayurveda and music therapy.  Poorna is a music therapist and teacher of Vedic astrology (Jyotish).  A passionate proponent of holistic health since his teens, he utilizes the power of music along with the depth of understanding that Vedic astrology offers to help  individuals experience greater well-being in their lives.  The ancient wisdom and science of Ayurveda leads us to discover what is conducive to our happiness and unhappiness.  We come to view music therapy (or any therapy for that matter) through an Ayurvedic lens.  In Ayurveda, we learn about the gunas – the qualities in nature that describe our experience.  The twenty gunas are composed of ten qualities and their opposites.  With the gunas, we encounter the principle of “like increases like.”  For instance, if you are feeling spacey and drink coffee which has the qualities of light and dry,  it will increase your spaciness.  The therapeutic principle of "opposites balance" may be more effective.  When you learn about the gunas, you start to view your life through “guna goggles.”   The gunas impact us through our sensory experiences – our tanmantras.  The tanmantras move from gross to subtle.  Music therapy relates to the tanmantra of sound.  For instance, heavy metal music may may have a hot quality.  When something is hot, it can agitate our nervous system.  Ayurveda is not a black or white science, our subjective experience is important and we can be creative with it.  The idea is how to create more balance in our lives thorugh music – by becoming aware of the qualities of a particular piece of music in relation to our own nature.   If a client is depressed, Ayurveda identifies the quality of slowness.  Lively, stimulating music may be effective in bringing the client out of his dullness - an example of the principle "opposites create balance."  The music therapist formulates goals for the client after completing an assessment and music is applied therapeutically to create a shift.  In yoga, we talk about personal goals or different things we want to cultivate.  Music can be used to cultivate the same qualities.  Poornamurti was inspired to share a quote by Swami Satyananda Saraswati.   “Music has a great power.  It is the greatest power that man has discovered.  You should make use of it.  Through kirtan, you can reach the highest pinnacle of spiritual experience, neither by yoga nor any other means.  By kirtan, you can have the vision of the divine, the vision of yourself, the vision of God, the vision of Christ, the vision of Mary, the vision of Krishna, the vision of Rama.  It is possible.  Music does the important groundwork by taking away the “self” (meaning ego self) from you.”  The yogis are always speaking of the importance of music.  Because of its subtle nature, they consider it to be very powerful.  When you meet the client where he or she is, there is more opportunity for progress.  Not judging and practicing unconditional positive regard – both are important - for clients and ourselves.  “Unconditional positive regard” means seeing the client at his or her best.  When you listen to rap music with teenagers, they feel accepted.  If it's a song that is reinforcing aggressive behavior, however, the first step is to help them understand if this is something they want in their lives.  While they may resist a different style of music, they may accept rap music with a more positive message.   Ultimately, they have to come to their own understanding.  Find Poornamurti at https://vedichealing108.com/

From the word go, Poorna Bell was one of my DREAM guests for the podcast  – so I was a little bit delighted when she agreed to be on series one. We recorded this episode back in February, before Covid-19 worries really hit the UK, yet our conversation will resonate for anyone learning to value their alone time right now. Poorna shares how she discovered her need for time alone, with her thoughts, after her husband, Rob, died by suicide in 2015. She describes her life-changing solo travels – which she chronicles beautifully in her book, ‘In Search of Silence’ – and we weigh up Emma's Watson's polarising ‘self-partnered’ term. We also discuss the pitfalls of workplace culture and open plan offices – rather fitting for right now, when we’re all working from home. Poorna’s sensitivity, emotional intelligence and humour are the qualities that have always drawn me to her writing – and they shine through in this episode. I hope you enjoy it! *Enjoy this episode?

My guest this week is the phenomenal Poorna Bell. Poorna is an award-winning journalist and author, and a hugely inspiring voice in the conversation around mental health. Her first book Chase The Rainbow, charts her life with her late husband Rob, who struggled with depression and addiction and died by suicide in 2015. It's a staggeringly moving, but also incredibly warm and vivid read, which offers vital insights both on mental health and grief. She has followed it up with the recently-released In Search of Silence, which chronicles her journey to rebuilding her life after bereavement. We discuss all of this, in a conversation that is both moving and inspiring. She's wonderful.

Once upon a time, there was a girl who grew up to be the most successful boxer in India’s history. Her name was Mary Kom. Mary was an energetic child who was naturally drawn towards sports. So she enrolled herself in a sports academy where she discovered her love of boxing, but her trainers thought she was too small. Still, Mary sparred until she improved her technique, showing up early and staying late to train. She was terrified her parents would stop her, but they eventually grew to be her biggest supporters. With her nation and family’s support, Mary boxed her way to the Olympic Games and inspired generations to come.Sponsored by:www.rebelgirls.co Use promocode REBELPODCAST to get 15% off your first purchase!About the Narrator:Poorna Jagannathan is an award-winning actress and producer.
