Elios ha 35 anni, è un software architect e vive a Milano, ma è nato in Albania, nell'anno in cui il Paese passava dalla dittatura comunista alla democrazia. La sua è una famiglia di ceto medio che manda avanti un ristorante, dove i soldi seguono un rituale preciso: all'inizio di ogni mese si accantona per le tasse, per la scuola, per le spese, e ciò che resta si risparmia il più possibile. Si accumula, non si investe, perché non si sa cosa succederà domani. Sulla cultura e sull'istruzione non si risparmia; sul divertimento e sulle vacanze sì. Da quella selezione Elios eredita qualcosa di più profondo del solo modo di spendere. «Questa modalità aveva creato in me una specie di freno a mano invisibile, che nella vita mi ha sempre guidato a non superare quel confine».Quel freno lo accompagna a lungo. In Albania cambia tre aziende, ma mai per migliorare la remunerazione: solo per cercare più sicurezza. Poi arriva in Italia, per motivi personali, e accetta una posizione molto al di sotto delle sue competenze, a 25.000 euro lordi. Un anno e mezzo dopo arriva la pandemia, che va a colpire il suo punto più fragile: la stabilità che aveva cercato per tutta la vita. È lì che il freno smette di funzionare come protezione e diventa un limite, che lo blocca nel riconoscere il proprio valore anche sul piano economico. In famiglia, del resto, non si negoziava mai, nemmeno il prezzo di un acquisto. «Pur riconoscendo il valore del lavoro degli altri, si faceva fatica a vendere il proprio lavoro al prezzo giusto».A smuovere qualcosa è il confronto con la compagna, con cui il denaro diventa oggetto di conversazione aperta. È lei a dargli la frase che gli mancava. «Questo rispetto che metti verso gli altri, a un certo punto, lo devi mettere anche verso te stesso». Alle conversazioni con la compagna si affiancano conversazioni con esperti di finanza personale. «Quello che mi ha cambiato un po' il modo di relazionarmi con il denaro è stato partecipare a eventi di educazione finanziaria e, soprattutto, cercare di comprendere il più possibile l'economia». Nel giro di otto anni Elios arriva a guadagnare il 140% in più rispetto a quando è arrivato a Milano, cambiando azienda e negoziando. E, a differenza della sua famiglia d'origine, non si limita ad accumulare: inizia a investire. Non ha mai abbandonato la cultura con cui è cresciuto, ma l'ha completata. «Tra cinque anni mi piacerebbe avere una gestione economica che mi permetta di vivere meglio il presente e di guardare al futuro con più realismo».

Jay Klein lost $2 million on a gum nobody wanted. He sold the remaining stock to a pig feed company for $13,000 - then used every cent of it to launch Pur. Sixteen years later, Pur is the fastest-growing gum in North America, the #1 selling gum on Amazon, sells in over 50 countries, and does over $250 million in retail sales annually. All bootstrapped. All founder-owned. And built in a $20 billion industry controlled by fewer than ten giants who still haven't managed to take him out. In this interview, the founder of The Pur Company breaks down how he discovered his winning product insight for free at 30,000 feet, why he deliberately ignored Walmart and Tesco to win thousands of tiny independent stores first, and how he absorbed a brutal 39% tariff - without raising a dollar or passing a cent to his customers - and still grew 30% that year. What you'll learn in this interview: • How losing $2 million on his first gum brand rewired everything - and why getting back to zero was his greatest victory • The airplane focus group: how he discovered the aspartame insight for free that became the entire Pur thesis • Why he targeted independent health food stores instead of big retailers - and the "major league attitude in a minor league setting" strategy behind it • How he convinced his manufacturer to extend 30-day credit on a $250K first order with only $13K to his name • The "assemble the crumbs to make the cookie" philosophy: why Pur has never been built on a single big retail relationship • How duty free airports became his global expansion engine - and why he treated them like his version of New York City • Why he turned down the Dragon's Den deal even after it went through - and what he got out of it anyway • The 39% Swiss tariff crisis: how he absorbed the full hit rather than disrupt his retail relationships - and why scale actually amplified the problem instead of solving it • Why he keeps the lowest possible balance in his checking account on purpose - and what it does for his hunger as a founder • What he looks for now as a Dragon's Den investor: the two things that matter before any unit economics conversation If you're building a CPG or retail brand, trying to figure out how to grow without giving away equity, or looking for the real story behind what bootstrapped category-building looks like across 16 years and 50 countries, this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about distribution, resilience, and what it means to outwork the competition one crumb at a time.

  Sermon Notes: FASTING AND PRAYERS GENERATE POWER FOR A CHANGE OF STORY Preacher: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Okronipa Main Scripture: Luke 4:14 Supporting Scriptures: Luke 4:1, Esther 3, Esther 4, Isaiah 54:17 Core Theme: Activating divine empowerment through fasting and prayer to break spiritual resistance, neutralize demonic decrees, and legally enforce a supernatural change of story. 1. Introduction: The Spiritual Imperative of Fasting Fasting is About Power: Fasting is not merely about staying away from food; it is a critical spiritual exercise. When believers engage in fasting and prayer, they are actively drawing near to God to generate dynamic spiritual power. The Pattern of Jesus: Scripture records that Jesus, being full of the Holy Ghost, went into the wilderness. After fasting, He returned in the power of the Spirit. The Power Flow: Power must flow when we fast. Every major patriarch, prophet, and apostle in scripture utilized fasting as a baseline lifestyle to trigger breakthroughs and historical shifts. 2. The Blueprint of Dominion: Executive Control Genesis 1:26 "...let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." Created to Rule: God's primary purpose for humanity is dominion. Dominion is a legal term representing authority, executive power, and political appointment. The Ultimate Mandate: Man was structurally programmed to take charge, subdue the earth, and enforce God's sovereign will in this material realm. The Loss of Dominion: When a believer's life is consistently subject to patterns of loss, tragedy, or situations they do not desire, it is a sign that their dominion has been compromised and something else is illegally controlling their environment. 3. The Prophetic Case Study: Overturning a Sealed Decree The Irreversible Law: In the book of Esther, Haman utilized demonic manipulations, magicians, and astrologers to cast lots (Pur) for twelve months to select a specific day to completely annihilate the Jewish people. This decree was legally signed and sealed with the king's signet ring, making it completely irreversible by human laws. The Spiritual Counter-Attack: Recognizing that the crisis was rooted in spiritual dimensions, Queen Esther did not rely on her physical beauty or her executive position in the palace. She commanded Mordecai and all the Jews in Shushan to fast and pray for three days—neither eating nor drinking—and committed to doing the same with her maids. The Structural Shift: On the third day, after the fast concluded, Esther put on her royal robes and stood before the king. The fast had completely altered the spiritual climate. Before she could even state her request, the king granted her favor, promising her up to half of the kingdom, which ultimately led to the complete destruction of Haman and the preservation of the Jews. 4. The Six Supernatural Realities Activated by Fasting When believers engage in strategic fasting, they activate precise spiritual tools to enforce dominion over real-world situations: I. The Weapon of Prophetic Proclamations (Incantations) Fasting clarifies your spiritual senses, allowing your tongue to issue powerful, decree-level words. Continuous speaking in tongues is the believer's legal form of divine incantations. While dark forces use early morning incantations to try to control natural elements, believers must rise up in prayer to dynamically program their days and command their environments. II. The Deployment of Material Tokens and Signs God Works Through Elements: God frequently commands the use of physical tokens—such as anointing oil, communion, or specific symbolic acts—to anchor and express invisible spiritual power. The Axe-Head Floating (2 Kings 4): Elisha cut a physical piece of wood and threw it into the water where a borrowed iron axe-head had sunk, causing the heavy metal to instantly float to the top. The Altar Testimony: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Okronipa shared a testimony of a family member whose kidneys were failing and was completely unconscious in the hospital. A prophetic token was deployed where his name was written down and legally laid upon the church altar. This intercepted the sickness, and subsequent clinical scans showed his kidneys were fully and completely restored. The Power of Anointing Oil (Ororo): The Pastor referenced the raw testimonies that follow the use of anointing oil (Ororo in Yoruba). A sister who was dealing with persistent medical anomalies applied blessed oil every day for months, completely curing her body and causing financial doors to swing wide open. III. The Activation of Covenant Practices (Tithing/Giving) Giving and tithing are not simple financial transactions; they are high-level covenant activations. In places like Nigeria, even secular entities understand the spiritual force of sacrifice. Sacrificial giving releases an unstoppable voice in the spirit realm that forces resources to flow to you. IV. The Release of Prophetic Healing Wine (Communion) The Communion is a literal proclamation of life. A sister who suffered from severe, un-diagnosable asthma for years took blessed communion wine during a fast, and the condition completely vanished. When administered to her daughters, it unlocked a continuous stream of academic excellence, causing them to consistently rank first in their classes. V. The Enforcement of Territorral Ground-Sanctification Physical land can be prophetically won or cleared. In a battle over real estate contested by land guards, the Pastor prophetically sprinkled blessed sand and poured water over the landscape. This act legally locked down the territory, and despite multiple subsequent attempts by intruders, they were structurally blocked from interfering with the property. VI. The Destruction of Weaponized Demonic Schemes Scripture: Isaiah 54:17 Demonic structures can be custom-made and weaponized directly against your DNA, your business, or your health. However, the Bible guarantees that “no weapon fashioned against you shall prosper.” Fasting and prayer systematically disassemble these custom demonic operations and completely destroy their capacity to function. 5. Practical Execution & Commissioning To break negative patterns and command a permanent change of story, every believer must aggressively employ these spiritual tools: Audit Your Life's Patterns: If you notice a consistent trend of losing resources, losing health, or experiencing repeated disruptions, do not treat it as a natural phase. Write down the specific area of resistance and explicitly target it during this fast. Engage in Relentless Invocations: Use the nights of this fast to loudly stream tongues over your life, your home, and your family. Speak fine, powerful words into the atmosphere to drown out any illegal demonic voice. Deploy Your Prophetic Media and Tokens: Responsibly utilize the communion, blessed oil, and prophetic parameters given. Do not stop after a few days; be completely committed to the protocol. When mixed with faith, these tokens will force your story to completely change and bring your absolute dominion to pass!

Puntata a cura di UntimoteoCon la stagione 2 in arrivo su Disney+ dal 1 luglio, la serie animata X-Men ‘97 segna l'ingresso dei celebri mutanti nel Marvel Cinematic Universe, pur restando ai margini della continuity ufficiale. Apparentemente operazione nostalgica – richiamo diretto al celebre cartone degli anni '90 – la serie si rivela presto qualcosa di molto diverso: un prodotto maturo, intenso, capace di affrontare temi profondi come lutto, amore, identità, emarginazione e persino genocidio.Non è un revival per vecchi fan, ma un'evoluzione coerente con lo spirito originario dei fumetti. X-Men ‘97 parla ai “diversi” e agli esclusi, e lo fa con un linguaggio narrativo contemporaneo. Pur conservando l'anima corale e politica che ha sempre caratterizzato la saga. È la Marvel migliore: quella che riflette l'immaginario americano contemporaneo e, in un mondo globalizzato, dà forma alle angosce dell'Occidente intero.“Animazione” è il format del podcast di Mondoserie dedicato alle diverse scuole ed espressioni del genere, dall'Oriente alla scena europea e americana.Parte del progetto: https://www.mondoserie.it/  Iscriviti al podcast sulla tua piattaforma preferita o su: https://www.spreaker.com/show/mondoserie-podcast  Collegati a MONDOSERIE sui social:https://www.facebook.com/mondoserie https://www.instagram.com/mondoserie.it/   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwXpMjWOcPbFwdit0QJNnXQ  https://www.linkedin.com/in/mondoserie/

In quel tempo, entrato Gesù in Cafàrnao, gli venne incontro un centurione che lo scongiurava e diceva: «Signore, il mio servo è in casa, a letto, paralizzato e soffre terribilmente». Gli disse: «Verrò e lo guarirò». Ma il centurione rispose: «Signore, io non sono degno che tu entri sotto il mio tetto, ma di' soltanto una parola e il mio servo sarà guarito. Pur essendo anch'io un subalterno, ho dei soldati sotto di me e dico a uno: “Va'!”, ed egli va; e a un altro: “Vieni!”, ed egli viene; e al mio servo: “Fa' questo!”, ed egli lo fa». Ascoltandolo, Gesù si meravigliò e disse a quelli che lo seguivano: «In verità io vi dico, in Israele non ho trovato nessuno con una fede così grande! Ora io vi dico che molti verranno dall'oriente e dall'occidente e siederanno a mensa con Abramo, Isacco e Giacobbe nel regno dei cieli, mentre i figli del regno saranno cacciati fuori, nelle tenebre, dove sarà pianto e stridore di denti». E Gesù disse al centurione: «Va', avvenga per te come hai creduto». In quell'istante il suo servo fu guarito. Entrato nella casa di Pietro, Gesù vide la suocera di lui che era a letto con la febbre. Le toccò la mano e la febbre la lasciò; poi ella si alzò e lo serviva. Venuta la sera, gli portarono molti indemoniati ed egli scacciò gli spiriti con la parola e guarì tutti i malati, perché si compisse ciò che era stato detto per mezzo del profeta Isaìa: “Egli ha preso le nostre infermità e si è caricato delle malattie”.

Dal Vangelo secondo MatteoIn quel tempo, entrato Gesù in Cafàrnao, gli venne incontro un centurione che lo scongiurava e diceva: «Signore, il mio servo è in casa, a letto, paralizzato e soffre terribilmente». Gli disse: «Verrò e lo guarirò». Ma il centurione rispose: «Signore, io non sono degno che tu entri sotto il mio tetto, ma di' soltanto una parola e il mio servo sarà guarito. Pur essendo anch'io un subalterno, ho dei soldati sotto di me e dico a uno: “Va'!”, ed egli va; e a un altro: “Vieni!”, ed egli viene; e al mio servo: “Fa' questo!”, ed egli lo fa».Ascoltandolo, Gesù si meravigliò e disse a quelli che lo seguivano: «In verità io vi dico, in Israele non ho trovato nessuno con una fede così grande! Ora io vi dico che molti verranno dall'oriente e dall'occidente e siederanno a mensa con Abramo, Isacco e Giacobbe nel regno dei cieli, mentre i figli del regno saranno cacciati fuori, nelle tenebre, dove sarà pianto e stridore di denti». E Gesù disse al centurione: «Va', avvenga per te come hai creduto». In quell'istante il suo servo fu guarito.Entrato nella casa di Pietro, Gesù vide la suocera di lui che era a letto con la febbre. Le toccò la mano e la febbre la lasciò; poi ella si alzò e lo serviva.Venuta la sera, gli portarono molti indemoniati ed egli scacciò gli spiriti con la parola e guarì tutti i malati, perché si compisse ciò che era stato detto per mezzo del profeta Isaìa:“Egli ha preso le nostre infermitàe si è caricato delle malattie”.

Now in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, on the thirteenth day of the same, when the king's commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them, (though it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had rule over them that hated them;)2 The Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt: and no man could withstand them; for the fear of them fell upon all people.3 And all the rulers of the provinces, and the lieutenants, and the deputies, and officers of the king, helped the Jews; because the fear of Mordecai fell upon them.4 For Mordecai was great in the king's house, and his fame went out throughout all the provinces: for this man Mordecai waxed greater and greater.5 Thus the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, and slaughter, and destruction, and did what they would unto those that hated them.6 And in Shushan the palace the Jews slew and destroyed five hundred men.7 And Parshandatha, and Dalphon, and Aspatha,8 And Poratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,9 And Parmashta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Vajezatha,10 The ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews, slew they; but on the spoil laid they not their hand.11 On that day the number of those that were slain in Shushan the palace was brought before the king.12 And the king said unto Esther the queen, The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the palace, and the ten sons of Haman; what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? now what is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee: or what is thy request further? and it shall be done.13 Then said Esther, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews which are in Shushan to do to morrow also according unto this day's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.14 And the king commanded it so to be done: and the decree was given at Shushan; and they hanged Haman's ten sons.15 For the Jews that were in Shushan gathered themselves together on the fourteenth day also of the month Adar, and slew three hundred men at Shushan; but on the prey they laid not their hand.16 But the other Jews that were in the king's provinces gathered themselves together, and stood for their lives, and had rest from their enemies, and slew of their foes seventy and five thousand, but they laid not their hands on the prey,17 On the thirteenth day of the month Adar; and on the fourteenth day of the same rested they, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.18 But the Jews that were at Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.19 Therefore the Jews of the villages, that dwelt in the unwalled towns, made the fourteenth day of the month Adar a day of gladness and feasting, and a good day, and of sending portions one to another.20 And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters unto all the Jews that were in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, both nigh and far,21 To stablish this among them, that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly,22 As the days wherein the Jews rested from their enemies, and the month which was turned unto them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning into a good day: that they should make them days of feasting and joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor.23 And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written unto them;24 Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that is, the lot, to consume them, and to destroy them;25 But when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.26 Wherefore they called these days Purim after the name of Pur. Therefore for all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and which had come unto them,27 The Jews ordained, and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves unto them, so as it should not fail, that they would keep these two days according to their writing, and according to their appointed time every year;28 And that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and that these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memorial of them perish from their seed.29 Then Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew, wrote with all authority, to confirm this second letter of Purim.30 And he sent the letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth,31 To confirm these days of Purim in their times appointed, according as Mordecai the Jew and Esther the queen had enjoined them, and as they had decreed for themselves and for their seed, the matters of the fastings and their cry.32 And the decree of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim; and it was written in the book.

After these things did king Ahasuerus promote Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him, and set his seat above all the princes that were with him.2 And all the king's servants, that were in the king's gate, bowed, and reverenced Haman: for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence.3 Then the king's servants, which were in the king's gate, said unto Mordecai, Why transgressest thou the king's commandment?4 Now it came to pass, when they spake daily unto him, and he hearkened not unto them, that they told Haman, to see whether Mordecai's matters would stand: for he had told them that he was a Jew.5 And when Haman saw that Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence, then was Haman full of wrath.6 And he thought scorn to lay hands on Mordecai alone; for they had shewed him the people of Mordecai: wherefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews that were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, even the people of Mordecai.7 In the first month, that is, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, to the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar.8 And Haman said unto king Ahasuerus, There is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the people in all the provinces of thy kingdom; and their laws are diverse from all people; neither keep they the king's laws: therefore it is not for the king's profit to suffer them.9 If it please the king, let it be written that they may be destroyed: and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver to the hands of those that have the charge of the business, to bring it into the king's treasuries.10 And the king took his ring from his hand, and gave it unto Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the Jews' enemy.11 And the king said unto Haman, The silver is given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee.12 Then were the king's scribes called on the thirteenth day of the first month, and there was written according to all that Haman had commanded unto the king's lieutenants, and to the governors that were over every province, and to the rulers of every people of every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language; in the name of king Ahasuerus was it written, and sealed with the king's ring.13 And the letters were sent by posts into all the king's provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, even upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to take the spoil of them for a prey.14 The copy of the writing for a commandment to be given in every province was published unto all people, that they should be ready against that day.15 The posts went out, being hastened by the king's commandment, and the decree was given in Shushan the palace. And the king and Haman sat down to drink; but the city Shushan was perplexed.

Tattva means to understand 'that, because tattva is "thatness." Tat means it's a demonstrative pronoun—there's something you can point to that exists. There are categories that are distinguishable, and when one relegates—that is, puts in the proper perspective—what the material body is, what its purpose is, and to whom it belongs, then one is properly situated. One should relegate his body to the illusory world through his reason. So, using our reason, we can understand that "I have nothing to do with my body. My body is part of the Mahatattva, just as all the elements that are in the world are in this body, but I am not of that." Asaṅgo hy ayaṁ puruṣaḥ means, "I have no connection with it." It's not "part of my thing," as I used to say; "it's not my bag, man." So, relegating the body to that position, and one who has successfully done that is described in the Gītā (BG 5.8-9): naiva kiñcit karomīti yukto manyeta tattva-vit paśyañ śṛṇvan spṛśañ jighrann aśnan gacchan svapañ śvasan pralapan visṛjan gṛhṇann unmiṣan nimiṣann api indriyāṇīndriyārtheṣu vartanta iti dhārayan Such a person never considers this body and all its workings—whatever it's doing—as his own. All those words were about how the body is interacting with the material world: receiving, giving, opening, closing the eyes, evacuating. That person, naivakiñcit—not even a little bit; kiñcit means "something," and naiva kiñcit means na-eva kiñcit, "not even a tiny bit"—does he think, "Oh yeah, that's me." He thinks, "The body is acting, and I am aloof," therefore that is the proper relegation. The other relegation was expressed by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu to Sanātana Gosvāmī, who felt so unworthy of being in the presence—not just of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, but of anybody in Jagannātha Purī—because he thought, "My body with this disease is so abominable; what to speak of me in general? If anybody like a pūjārī bumps into me, then I'll be cursed, I'll commit an offense, and Mahāprabhu is embracing me out of love, but my skin is full of oozing sores." Therefore, he thought in his mind, "When the Jagannātha Ratha-yātrā starts, I'll throw myself under the wheel in the presence of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu." He didn't tell anybody; he just had that plan incubating in his mind. And then, when Mahāprabhu visited Haridāsa Ṭhākura, where Sanātana Gosvāmī was staying, He one day abruptly said, "I do not approve of your idea to commit suicide by jumping in." He said to Haridāsa Ṭhākura, "What is the character of this person? He has already surrendered his body to Me, and now he's thinking of destroying it. What do you think of that? "My Lord," Haridāsa replied, "we cannot ascertain what You intend or not unless You tell us." ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://vaisesikadasayatra.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality

Erano una voce libera e critica all'interno della cultura medievale: uomini colti e spesso irrequieti che, attraverso l'ironia, la satira e la poesia, espressero il desiderio di una vita più autentica e meno vincolata alle rigide convenzioni del loro tempo.I goliardi erano studenti, chierici e intellettuali itineranti che vissero soprattutto tra il XII e il XIII secolo nell'Europa medievale. Provenivano in genere dagli ambienti delle scuole e delle prime università e possedevano una solida formazione culturale basata sul latino, la lingua della Chiesa e della cultura del tempo. Molti di loro conducevano una vita errante, spostandosi da una città all'altra in cerca di insegnamento, protezione o sostegno economico. Pur appartenendo spesso al mondo ecclesiastico, si distinguevano per il loro atteggiamento anticonformista e critico nei confronti delle autorità religiose e della società medievale.Attraverso poesie, canzoni e componimenti satirici scritti prevalentemente in latino, i goliardi denunciavano la corruzione del clero, l'ipocrisia dei potenti e le ingiustizie sociali. Allo stesso tempo esaltavano gli aspetti più terreni dell'esistenza, celebrando il vino, l'amore, l'amicizia, il gioco e il piacere di vivere. Questa visione del mondo, spesso in contrasto con gli ideali di austerità e disciplina promossi dalla Chiesa, contribuì a renderli figure originali e talvolta controverse. Di questo ed altro Giovanni Conti parla oggi in ”Quilisma.”

Caitanya Mahāprabhu said that you should practice giving respect to all others and not accepting respect in return. The fact is, it's uplifting. The ego has a diatribe going on that if you don't assert yourself, you'll cease to exist; your reputation will not be held, your power in the world won't be held, and you'll lose out on everything. If you don't assert yourself, however—those like Mādhavendra Purī, who kept to himself and was a pure devotee of the Lord—became the most famous and sought-after, even though he didn't want anything. It's paradoxical. Practically, those who don't want anything become effective servants of the Lord, and what to speak of leaders. Prabhupāda talked about how even the pauper is proud of his penny. He said he saw an unhoused person at Howrah Station who was coveting some half-burnt firewood that he had lugged along with him, and he just noted—did Prabhupāda—that he was attached to his little domain; even though it was a paltry domain, he was proud of that, and kings are proud of theirs. Mucukunda notes that a king rides on a big elephant with a golden saddle and is surrounded by people extolling his glories. He said, “But the same kingly body is reduced to feces just after he dies. I've been in such illusion that I thought, ‘Oh, I am a king.” It's cultivation: nirmāna-moha jita-saṅga-doṣāḥ. Kṛṣṇa says to practice not being the center and sublimating the ego. kṛṣṇa-bhakta—niṣkāma, ataeva ‘śānta' bhukti-mukti-siddhi-kāmī sakali ‘aśānta' (Cc Madhya 19.149) We get no peace when we try to put ourselves in the center, but kṛṣṇa-bhakta is niṣkāma, śānta—because he doesn't want anything, niṣkāma ataev he certainly doesn't want anything; he has no personal desire, only wants to serve Kṛṣṇa. This is the only respite from the storm of the false ego that pursues us to the far ends of our lives to make sure that we assert ourselves and make sure that we're the number one in every circumstance. But devotees eschew the false ego's demands and take shelter of being the servant of the servant. I heard Prabhupāda this morning saying, “Everyone's proud.” He said it's okay to be proud that you're a servant of Kṛṣṇa. If somebody says, “What are you, anyway?” You can say, “I'm a humble servant of Kṛṣṇa. I'm a servant of the servant of the devotees.” You can be proud of that, he said, because every emotion can be used in Kṛṣṇa's service, and it's purified when one thinks in terms of: “I'm not the big person; I'm the little person who serves all the big people, and the biggest person is Kṛṣṇa.” ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://vaisesikadasayatra.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna

This talk is the fifth installment in a wellness series that takes a distinctly yogic approach to understanding life's challenges and spiritual development.Acharya das discusses the concept of "false shelter" (durashraya in Sanskrit) - the tendency to place unlimited trust in things that cannot provide genuine protection or happiness. He uses examples ranging from relationships and material possessions to modern technology and social media to illustrate how people become victims of their own poor choices rather than external circumstances. He stresses the importance of taking personal responsibility for life decisions and developing consequential thinking.Acharya das concludes with an emphasis on the importance of cultivating atma-tattva (knowledge of the soul/self) and the necessity of reconnecting with the Supreme Soul as the only genuine source of shelter and protection. He advocates for regular chanting meditation as a transformative practice that can lead to self-realization and God-realization, describing it as an immersive experience rather than a mental activity. Quotes used in the talk:For him who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends; but for one who has failed to do so, his very mind will be the greatest enemy. Bhagavad-gītā 6.6For one whose mind is unbridled, self-realization is difficult work. But he whose mind is controlled and who strives by right means is assured of success. That is My opinion. Bhagavad-gītā 6.36When a man in the material world takes more interest in the materialistic way of life than in spiritual/God consciousness, he is considered to be in a diseased condition. The normal condition is to remain an eternal servant of the Lord. This healthy condition is lost when the living entity forgets God due to being attracted by the external features of Krsna's maya energy. This world of maya is called durasraya, which means “false or bad shelter.” One who puts his faith in durasraya becomes a candidate for hoping against hope. In the material world everyone is trying to become happy, and although their material attempts are baffled in every way, due to their nescience [ignorance] they cannot understand their mistakes. People try to rectify one mistake by making another mistake. This is the way of the struggle for existence in the material world. If one in this condition is advised to take to [cultivating] God consciousness and be happy, he does not accept such instructions. – Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaPersons devoid of ātma-tattva do not inquire into the problems of life, being too attached to the fallible soldiers like the body, children and wife. Although sufficiently experienced, they still do not see their inevitable destruction. Bhāgavata Purāṇa 2.1.4“One who is not connected with the Supreme Soul can have neither transcendental intelligence nor a steady mind, without which there is no possibility of peace. And how can there be any happiness without peace?” – Bhagavad-gītā 2.66Chapters 00:00:00 Introduction to Yogic Wellness Philosophy ‎ 00:02:14 The Threefold Miseries and Realistic Expectations ‎ 00:04:35 Historical Foundation: Sanatana Goswami's Questions ‎ 00:13:32 Personal Responsibility in Relationships and Life Choices ‎ 00:19:24 The Search for Shelter and Modern Emptiness ‎ 00:26:07 Consequential Thinking and Rat Trap Happiness ‎ 00:29:17 Mind Control and Spiritual Practice ‎ 00:32:51 Modern Manipulation and Technology Addiction ‎ 00:37:34 False Shelter and Spiritual Guidance ‎ 00:42:00 Durashraya: The Nature of False Shelter ‎ 00:47:38 Fallible Soldiers and Spiritual Truth ‎ 00:50:00 True Shelter and Spiritual Connection ‎ 00:54:08 Chanting Meditation as Transformative Practice

Ventinovesima puntata dell'ottava stagione di J-TACTICS, la rubrica di radiomegliodiniente.com dedicata alla vecchia signora bianconera.Focus sul match di sabato pomeriggio andato in scena allo stadio Via del Mare tra i padroni di casa giallorossi e i bianconeri.Un lampo del redivivo Vlahovic dopo una manciata di secondi, basta e avanza, 1-0 il risultato finale.La Juventus vince a Lecce, unico risultato utile per gli uomini di Spalletti e mette un altro tassello per la qualificazione alla prossima Champions League.Ai bianconeri, come detto, basta il gol di Dusan Vlahovic dopo appena 12 secondi di gioco per battere il Lecce al Via del Mare e salire a quota 68 punti in classifica, scavalcando il Milan al terzo posto, inseguono la Roma ad un solo punto (come il Milan stesso) e il Como a 3.Pur non avendo ancora la certezza della qualificazione matematica, la vittoria in terra pugliese della squadra di Spalletti è pesantissima.Dopo il sanguinoso pareggio con il Verona già retrocesso, la Juve non poteva permettersi un altro errore.Come spesso accaduto quest'anno la vecchia signora ha vinto senza brillare, lasciando pericolosamente la partita aperta fino alla fine, prendendosi comunque pur faticosamente tre punti che possono valere una stagione.Un match, quello del Via del Mare, deciso praticamente al primo pallone giocato.Azione d'avvio della Juve, palla portata nella metà campo leccese cross di Cambiaso e il serbo Vlahovic si fa trovare pronto, controlla e poi calcia sotto la traversa.Un vantaggio fulmineo, che ha indirizzato subito la partita e costretto i padroni di casa a inseguire per tutta la serata.La Juventus ha avuto a dir la verità, anche le occasioni per chiudere prima i giochi.Nella ripresa sono stati annullati ben due gol: uno a Dusan per fuorigioco e uno a Kalulu dopo revisione al VAR, per effetto della posizione di Vlahovic stesso.Episodi che hanno tenuto aperta la partita e vivo il Lecce, costringendo i bianconeri a difendere, non senza qualche patema d'animo, fino all'ultimo un vantaggio risicato.Il Lecce coinvolto ancora nella lotta salvezza con la Cremonese, ha provato a pareggiare i conti.Alla Juve è bastato, pur con fatica e qualche brivido finale, il gol in avvio di gara.Non una vittoria brillante, come detto, ma una vittoria concreta, arrivata nella serata in cui sbagliare come con il Verona la settimana precedente sarebbe stata l'apocalisse.Con questo successo la Juventus sale a 68 punti, davanti al Milan a 67, alla Roma a 67 anch'essa e al Como a 65.La Champions non è ancora certa per gli uomini di Spalletti, ma dopo Lecce un altro passo è stato fatto.Ora testa al mai banale match con gli acerrimi rivali viola della Fiorentina tra le mura amiche dello Stadium.Di questo e altro parleremo in questa puntata!Diteci la vostra!Ecco i link dei nostri social:CANALE TELEGRAM:https://t.me/+TYOn7FZAQwet7MAtINSTAGRAM:https://instagram.com/jtactics_?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=TWITTER:https://twitter.com/RadioMDN?t=woKQltSFRUTw9qibbRZaJA&s=09

The backyard has become more than a place to grill, sit, or pass through on the way back inside. Increasingly, it is being treated as an extension of the home itself: a gathering place, a design statement, and a stage for the small rituals that bring people together. Solo Stove has leaned into that evolution, transforming fire, outdoor cooking, and even cooling into thoughtfully designed experiences that make gathering outside feel easier, warmer, and more memorable.As outdoor spaces become central to gathering, brands face a bigger challenge: creating products that shape the experience, not just serve a function. So how does Solo Stove use thoughtful product differentiation to turn backyard products into outdoor rituals people want to return to?Welcome to DisruptED. Host Ron J. Stefanski speaks with Markus Allemann, SVP of Product at Solo Stove, about how the company is building beyond its original fire pit identity into a wider portfolio of outdoor products. Their conversation looks at how differentiation shows up across Solo Stove's product experience, from durability, testing, and materials to outdoor cooking, gas fire pits, cooling products, and the design details that make backyard gatherings feel more memorable.The main topics of conversation…Differentiation is the product strategy. Allemann argues that Solo Stove's edge comes from differentiating every touchpoint, from the visuals and buying journey to unboxing, assembly, performance, materials, cleaning, and long-term durability.Small design choices create emotional loyalty. In the episode, Allemann points to details like griddle knobs, lid hinges, handles, flame patterns, airflow, and heat output as examples of product thinking that customers may not consciously analyze but feel in use.Solo Stove is expanding from heat into year-round outdoor experiences. The discussion moves from wood-burning and gas fire pits to griddles and cooling products, including an outdoor air-conditioning cooler designed to extend the brand's relevance into summer gatherings, beach days, soccer games, and other warm-weather occasions.Markus Allemann is a global product development and engineering leader with more than 30 years of experience across new product development, innovation, manufacturing, quality, operations, and scaling startups. He has developed and launched consumer and commercial products for major brands including Bosch, Dremel, SKIL, Hoover, Dirt Devil, Honeywell, Braun, Vicks, PUR, Victory, and Solo Stove. His career spans leadership roles across Europe, Asia, Australia, and the U.S., with deep expertise in product design, value engineering, sourcing, lean manufacturing, and building global teams.

Nel Medioevo il rapporto tra uomo e natura si presentava articolato e lontano dalle moderne concezioni ecologiste. Pur non esistendo una sensibilità ambientale nel senso contemporaneo del termine, erano diffuse forme di rispetto e di stretta interdipendenza con il mondo naturale.La natura, infatti, occupava un ruolo centrale nella visione spirituale dell'epoca. Fortemente influenzata dal pensiero teologico, la società medievale considerava l'universo come un grande sistema di simboli: un linguaggio figurato attraverso il quale si manifestavano le verità divine.Boschi, animali, stagioni e fenomeni naturali non venivano osservati soltanto per la loro utilità pratica, ma interpretati come segni capaci di trasmettere insegnamenti morali e religiosi. In questo quadro, l'ambiente non era separato dalla vita dell'uomo, bensì profondamente intrecciato con la dimensione religiosa e culturale del tempo.Giovanni Conti ne parla con il medievista Marco Ferrero, presidente del Centro studi medievali Ponzio di Cluny.

Thierry Janssen est un homme qui vit plusieurs vies en une seule. Est-ce parce qu'il est profondément habité par ses vies antérieures ? Lui-même ne saurait pas le dire. Son rapport avec le temps est tel que celui-ci en vient plutôt à disparaître, éclairant puissamment les questions autour de la réincarnation et du transgénérationnel. Il reconnaît que son ancrage spirituel, depuis sa toute petite enfance, l'a déjà inscrit hors du temps et de ses limites, vers l'éternité et l'infini du divin.Confronté très tôt à de douloureuxsessouffrances liées, comme il l'exprime, à la difficulté de son incarnation, Thierry Janssen a trouvé la libération par le corps et avec le corps. Médecin, chirurgien, devenu psychothérapeute, il est le fondateur de l'École de la Posture Juste créée en 2012 à Bruxelles. Écrivain, il est l'auteur de livres qui offrent une vision globale de l'être, avec une forte dimension mystique que l'on retrouve notamment dans Écouter le silence intérieur, et La solution intérieure.L'histoire de Thierry Janssen commence, très tôt, avec l'attirance aussi irrésistible qu'inattendue pour l'Égypte ancienne. De sa découverte de la civilisation égyptienne, guidée par un égyptologue reconnu, il dit avoir vécu le premier coup de foudre de sa vie.À l'âge de 22 ans, dès son premier voyage sur les bords du Nil , il a fait l'expérience immédiate d'une joie qui vibre au plus profond du corps, qui fait entièrement corps avec lui. C'était, confie t-il, comme s'il revenait à la vie. C'était aussi comme s'il était revenu chez lui.En se plongeant dans la sagesse antique égyptienne, Thierry Janssen dit être aller à la source intuitive de toute sa spiritualité. Aujourd'hui, il signe Inspirations d'Égypte, un Voyage poétique, philosophique et spirituel sur les bords du Nil. Il nous offre un ouvrage magnifique, dont la couverture reflète tout l'éclat du Soleil omniprésent à chaque page, illuminant la visite initiatique, méditative et contemplative, des monuments, des fresques, des paysages égyptiens.De ce livre lumineux et fascinant, Thierry Janssen nous offre un avant-goût hypnotique et captivant, brûlant de sa passion, de sa jeunesse, d'un amour du Vivant qui ne résiste pas aux limites spatio-temporelles.Avec Thierry Janssen, nous découvrons une civilisation à la beauté troublante et toujours mystérieuse. Une terre qui a peut-être vu l'invention l'écriture, et une sagesse essentiel dans la trasmission des connaissances des peuples premiers, dans sa connection chamanique avec toutes les autres sagesses et spiritualités qui, depuis, ruissellent sur toutes les terres habitées par les hommes et les femmes.Pour lire Inspirations d'Égypte, le nouveau livre de Thierry Janssen, cliquer ici.Pour découvrir l'École de la Posture Juste, créée par Thierry Janssen, cliquer ici. --------------     JOYEUX ANNIVERSAIRE(S)La nuit dernière, j'ai traversé deux ou trois fois mon jardin. Des amis proches, une mère et son fils, avaient eu l'idée de nous rendre visite au volant de leur camping-car. Plutôt qu'installer des couchages improbables dans le salon, la maison étant déjà pleine, ils avaient aussi choisi de dormir dans leur embarcation. Comme je m'inquiétais un peu pour leur confort, je suis allé les voir plusieurs fois pour m'assurer qu'ils ne manquaient de rien.Le froid piquait encore, en cette fin de mois d'avril. Pur et dégagé, le ciel était nappé de cristaux scintillants qui brillaient si fort là haut, comme si ils vibraient. Malgré l'heure tardive et l'appel du sommeil, à mon dernier tour, je n'ai pu m'empêcher de m'arrêter longuement. Je me suis assis sur le bord du puits du jardin, et j'ai regardé la féérie céleste.Moi qui me vante tant d'aimer les étoiles, depuis quand ne les avais-je contemplées ?  Depuis quand n'avais-je accordé un peu de mon temps, en acceptant de mordre un peu sur mes nuits, pour assister à l'un des plus beaux spectacles que nous offre le Monde ?À un moment, je crois que j'ai basculé. Je n'étais plus dans mon jardin des Bords de Rance. J'étais en Égypte, avec Thierry Janssen. Le haut de mon puits qui pointe en triangle s'était transformé en pyramide. Je cherchais l'étoile, ou la constellation à laquelle il répondait.Depuis, je ne suis pas vraiment revenu de ma nuit. Elle s'est transformée en rêve cosmogonique, sous l'influence hypnotique des paroles de Thierry que j'ai l'immense joie de diffuser sur Zeteo aujourd'hui. J'ai vu défiler les monuments, les fresques, les temples sacrés et les tombeaux secrets, les signes d'une civilisation antique exceptionnelle qui continue de nous parler et qui a beaucoup de choses essentielles à nous dire.  Avec son étonnement, son humour et un peu de sa délicieuse coquetterie, Thierry Janssen nous confie sa difficulté à entrer dans le temps, devenu pour lui un concept abstrait et secondaire. Je me suis surpris de savourer ma difficulté à me limiter à mon espace immédiat.J'étais bien sur mes terres bretonnes, et heureux d'y être. En même temps, la Rance devenait le Nil. J'étais dans les déserts d'Afrique, et j'entendais même le frémissement des hêtres de la forêt de Soignes. Celle qui prend sa naissance au pied de la maison bruxelloise de Thierry, là où j'étais venu le rencontrer il y a deux semaines. Là où elle commence à se déployer pour devenir celle qui est, m'avait dit Thierry avec une légitime fierté tant elle est belle, la plus grande d'Europe.Avec l'Égypte ancienne qu'il nous révèle avec son immense passion, le temps s'efface et l'espace parle à tout l'univers.Avant de nous quitter, Thierry m'a confié ce qui n'est peut-être pas un secret. Il allait bientôt fêter son anniversaire, le 25 avril. C'était un joli clin d'œil du temps, me disais-je. Par une piroutette, il ne disparaissait pas complètement en nous envoyant un tendre message.Le 25 avril, c'était la veille de la date qui avait été prévue pour la diffusion de cet épisode, c'est à dire aujourd'hui. Et c'était aussi quatre jours avant un autre anniversaire, le mien.Comme nous sommes nés la même année, Thierry est donc mon aîné. De très peu.Joyeux anniversaire cher Thierry, et j'espère qu'un jour, nous célébrerons ensemble nos venues dans ce monde sur ta terre égyptienne, du côté de Louxor, d'Edfou ou de Gizeh !Joyeux anniversaires à tous, et si ce n'est pas aujourd'hui, ce jour viendra,Guillaume Devoud  --------------    Pour soutenir l'effort de Zeteo, podcast sans publicité et d'accès entièrement gratuit, vous pouvez faire un don.

This is the 3rd talk in a Series on Wellness dealing with Trauma from a spiritual perspective.The two core premises presented in the discussion to help with a spiritual perspective is the Dharmic traditions understood that all pain and suffering will be somehow rooted in ignorance, and secondly, material existence and spiritual life as operating under completely different paradigms based upon the understanding (or misunderstanding) of the ‘self', who I actually am. Am I the temporary and constantly changing material body and mind, or am I an eternal spiritual being who is inhabiting the material body and mind?During the talk a previous series of seven videos was referenced, titled “Weathering a Storm”. Links to the highly recommended Series are at the end of this post.Some quoted verses:“The more one is freed from material identification, the more one can realize that the spirit soul is qualitatively as good as the Supreme Soul.” – AC Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaPersons devoid of ātma-tattva do not inquire into the problems of life, being too attached to the fallible soldiers like the body, children and wife. Although sufficiently experienced, they still do not see their inevitable destruction.

Rassegna stampa economico-finanziaria del 20 Aprile 2026, strutturata per macro-temi e basata sulle principali testate giornalistiche nazionali. Investimenti, Mercati e CrescitaTestate: Corriere della Sera / L'Economia del Corriere della Sera / Repubblica Affari&Finanza* Dfp/Mef: crescita sotto pressione, scenario macro più incerto.    Il Mef valuta più scenari nel Dfp per evitare che le stime risultino rapidamente obsolete in presenza di shock esterni. Il quadro centrale richiamato dal Corriere indica per il 2026 una crescita reale appena sopra lo 0,5%, con inflazione che potrebbe salire da meno del 2% a poco sotto il 3% o al 4% a seconda dell'evoluzione della crisi energetica. Il grafico riportato nella pagina successiva richiama inoltre le stime Fmi sull'Italia: Pil +0,5% nel 2026, inflazione 2,6%, disoccupazione 6%.Tra i numeri rilevanti: un possibile spostamento anche di 0,1 punti di Pil sul saldo di finanza pubblica può incidere sul posizionamento italiano rispetto alla procedura europea; lo spread citato è sceso fino a 97 punti base (0,97%) e poi risalito a 72.Il Pnrr viene richiamato per 194 miliardi di effetti ancora non pienamente dispiegati. * Data center: in Italia attesi 25 miliardi di investimenti entro il 2030.    Repubblica Affari&Finanza segnala un'accelerazione molto forte dell'infrastruttura digitale italiana: €25 miliardi di investimenti entro il 2030; consumi energetici potenzialmente fino a 4 volte gli attuali, oltre il 10% dei consumi europei; nel triennio 2023-2025 la capacità installata in Italia sarebbe cresciuta del 17% annuo. Il mercato italiano avrebbe già raggiunto circa €7 miliardi di investimenti, di cui il 70% nell'area di Milano. * Pirelli-Sinochem: dossier ancora aperto, ma il perimetro di controllo cinese si restringe.    L'Economia del Corriere sintetizza il nuovo assetto dopo il Golden Power: la quota Sinochem resta al 34%, ma nel nuovo board i cinesi avrebbero solo 3 consiglieri contro 12 espressi da Camfin, che tornerebbe a indicare anche il presidente oltre al ceo. L'articolo richiama anche un vincolo industriale-materiale: il mercato Usa pesa per circa il 20% dei ricavi di Pirelli nel segmento premium, e le norme statunitensi entrate in vigore da marzo 2026 sulle tecnologie connesse rendono più sensibile il tema del controllo. Segnale positivo: la partita sembra muoversi verso un riequilibrio di governance più compatibile con l'accesso ai mercati occidentali.  * Turismo: record a 237 miliardi, ma attenzione a carburanti e tensioni geopolitiche.    Secondo L'Economia del Corriere, il turismo italiano nel 2025 ha registrato 479 milioni di presenze totali, in aumento del 2,3% sul 2024, con un impatto economico di €237,4 miliardi di Pil e 3,2 milioni di posti di lavoro. Per Enit, i ricavi crescono del 25% di ebitda (€1 milione) su €45 milioni di ricavi; il fatturato si avvicina a €45 milioni e l'utile netto è indicato in circa €7,5 milioni. La prospettiva resta favorevole per il posizionamento dell'Italia come destinazione “safe”, ma i rincari dei carburanti potrebbero intaccare i flussi estivi. Indicazione positiva: il settore mostra ancora capacità di assorbire shock e di trasferire valore a monte su territori e servizi.  Industria, Infrastrutture e DigitaleTestate: Repubblica Affari&Finanza / Il Sole 24 Ore / L'Economia del Corriere della Sera* Ex Ilva: torna al centro il rischio di paralisi operativa e industriale.    Repubblica Affari&Finanza legge il dossier ex Ilva come uno dei principali punti critici della politica industriale. Il pezzo non aggiunge KPI di conto economico nuovi, ma sottolinea il rischio che lo stop alla centrale possa generare un impatto a catena sugli impianti del gruppo. Per un lettore manageriale il punto è meno politico che industriale: la continuità produttiva di asset strategici resta esposta a shock regolatori, ambientali e decisionali.  * Archivi di Stato: la digitalizzazione genera accessi e ricavi record.    Il Sole 24 Ore riporta una delle notizie più concrete sul fronte digitalizzazione pubblica. Le visite online sono cresciute di oltre il 600% in 5 anni. I ricavi da servizi aggiuntivi nel 2025 toccano €1,19 milioni, con una crescita cumulata del +55% nell'ultimo biennio. Tra 2023 e 2024 gli introiti sono saliti da €771 mila a €1,13 milioni; nel 2025 crescono ancora del +5,3%. I diritti di riproduzione delle immagini passano da €136 mila a €417 mila tra 2023 e 2024, poi si assestano a €266 mila nel 2025, comunque +43% rispetto a due anni prima.Banche e CreditoTestate: Repubblica Affari&Finanza / Corriere della Sera / Stampa* Risiko bancario: riapertura del consolidamento, con terzo polo di nuovo sul tavolo.    Repubblica Affari&Finanza parla esplicitamente di ripartenza del risiko. Nel perimetro citato emergono alcuni numeri-chiave degli azionisti: Mps 13,2%, Delfin 10,05%, Unicredit 6,68%; vengono inoltre richiamate partecipazioni rilevanti di Mps al 17,5% e Generali al 10% nel ragionamento sulle alleanze. La possibilità evocata è quella di un terzo polo tramite combinazioni tra Banco Bpm e Mps, con impatto potenziale anche sul riposizionamento di Generali e Mediobanca. Per il management finanziario il segnale è positivo: il sistema torna contendibile e questo può accelerare efficienza, scala e razionalizzazione del capitale.  * Partecipate e governance: il caso Terna/Di Foggia allarga il tema remunerazioni e fine mandato.    La rassegna raccoglie più testate sul dossier Di Foggia/Terna e sul richiamo del Mef ai limiti per le partecipate. Nei titoli emerge una “buonuscita milionaria” e una nota ministeriale sui limiti a nomine e indennità di fine mandato. Il dato di cifra puntuale non è leggibile nelle pagine esaminate, quindi il punto va tenuto come segnale di governance e non come KPI consolidato. Fisco e NormativaTestate: Il Sole 24 Ore / Corriere della Sera / Stampa / Repubblica* Residenza fiscale internazionale: attenzione ai beni che restano in Italia.    Il Sole 24 Ore ricorda che il trasferimento di residenza non elimina automaticamente gli obblighi fiscali su immobili e investimenti che restano nel Paese. Il criterio base italiano resta quello dei 183 giorni (184 negli anni bisestili) per la maggior parte del periodo d'imposta. L'articolo confronta diversi regimi esteri: in Spagna imposta sostitutiva del 24% sui redditi di fonte spagnola fino a €600 mila; nei Paesi Bassi esenzione pari al 30% della retribuzione, dal 2026 e fino a €262 mila annui, oltre i quali scatta la tassazione ordinaria; in Portogallo aliquota del 20% sul lavoro; in Bulgaria flat tax del 10%; a Malta aliquota forfettaria del 15% sui redditi di fonte estera rimessi nel Paese; in Grecia imposta sostitutiva del 7% su tutti i redditi di fonte estera.  * Casa, tasse e qualità della vita: la competitività immobiliare si decide su soglie e incentivi.    Sempre il Sole 24 Ore mette a confronto i regimi immobiliari europei. In Grecia la Golden Visa è legata all'acquisto di un immobile con soglie minime da €250 mila, che nel 2026 arrivano fino a €800 mila nelle aree più pregiate. A Lisbona, per under 35, l'esenzione su imposta di trasferimento e bollo vale per acquisti fino a circa €330 mila. In Olanda, gli under 34 non pagano l'imposta di trasferimento se l'immobile vale fino a €555 mila. A Malta, alcuni programmi richiedono almeno €375 mila di acquisto o un affitto da almeno €14 mila l'anno; per la prima casa c'è esenzione totale di bollo per i primi €200 mila di valore e un bonus mutuo di €10 mila. Energia e GeoeconomiaTestate: Corriere della Sera / Repubblica Affari&Finanza / Stampa / Il Fatto Quotidiano / Foglio Inserto* Hormuz: rischio energetico e agroalimentare, con impatto diretto su inflazione e filiere.    Le varie testate convergono sul fatto che lo Stretto di Hormuz resti il principale fattore di rischio economico globale della giornata. Il Corriere indica che da Hormuz passa circa il 20% del petrolio globale e che una sua chiusura potrebbe far salire il prezzo del greggio fino a circa $130 al barile al giorno; nello stesso box grafico si segnala 10 come livello di rischio/geotensione associato alla possibilità di un irrigidimento del confronto. Il Fatto Quotidiano parla inoltre di $50 miliardi di petrolio persi in 50 giorni. Sul piano italiano, lo shock energetico si trasmetterebbe rapidamente a trasporti, costi industriali, carburanti, agroalimentare e vacanze. Indicazione positiva: per molte imprese il contesto spinge a rimettere al centro hedging energetico, diversificazione fornitori e revisione contratti di fornitura.  * Gas russo: il tema rientra nel dibattito economico come leva di competitività, ma divide gli schieramenti.    Più testate riportano il ritorno del dibattito sul gas russo. Pur essendo una notizia ad alta componente politica, la rilevanza economica è evidente: il tema viene collegato ai prezzi dell'energia e al costo per imprese, ospedali e famiglie. Non emergono KPI nuovi leggibili nelle pagine esaminate, ma il segnale per chi decide investimenti energy-intensive è che il costo dell'energia resta un driver di scenario e non una variabile già normalizzata.  Innovazione monetaria e Finanza digitaleTestate: Repubblica Affari&Finanza* Stablecoin europee: dossier strategico per pagamenti, titoli pubblici e autonomia finanziaria.    Repubblica Affari&Finanza evidenzia il forte predominio americano nel segmento, ma anche l'opportunità per l'Europa di costruire un'infrastruttura di stablecoin in euro coordinata con l'euro digitale. Il mercato globale delle stablecoin viene stimato tra $270 e $

Rassegna stampa economico-finanziaria del 14 Aprile 2026, strutturata per macro-temi e basata sulle principali testate giornalistiche nazionali. Investimenti e MercatiTestate coinvolte: Corriere della Sera / Repubblica / Il Sole 24 Ore / Stampa / Tempo / Foglio / Riformista• Shock energia e tensione sui mercati finanziari. Le testate convergono su un quadro di rialzo delle commodity energetiche, incremento della volatilità e rischio di ulteriore riduzione dell'offerta. Il Corriere segnala esplicitamente “gas e petrolio salgono ancora” con “borse e spread in tensione”; Repubblica parla di “diesel a €2,50” e di forte impennata del gas; Il Sole 24 Ore conferma “nuovi rialzi” di petrolio e gas; Tempo invita a non drammatizzare sulla disponibilità fisica del carburante ma conferma la pressione sui prezzi. KPI espliciti emersi: diesel a €2,50/litro, 15 navi schierate dagli Usa secondo Repubblica, soglia deficit 3% richiamata nel dibattito politico-economico sui conti pubblici.  • Mercati: scenario di stress ma non ancora di shortage generalizzato.Una parte della rassegna sottolinea che l'emergenza riguarda soprattutto i prezzi e le aspettative, più che una carenza immediata di prodotto. Il messaggio di mercato è quindi doppio: nel breve termine prevale il repricing del rischio; nel medio termine resta aperta la partita sulle riserve, sulla logistica e sulle rotte alternative. Indicazione positiva: il sistema non viene descritto come in rottura immediata, ma come in una fase di forte tensione gestibile se coordinata a livello internazionale.  • Pirelli/Sinochem: tema legale e di governance da monitorare.MF segnala che Sinochem valuta la causa su Pirelli. Non emergono nel materiale visibile importi o target economici, ma il tema entra a pieno titolo nell'area investimenti/governance per i possibili riflessi su assetto proprietario, stabilità strategica e percezione del mercato.  • Consob: ritorna l'ipotesi Freni.MF riporta il ritorno dell'ipotesi Freni per la Consob. Anche in questo caso non emergono KPI economici puntuali, ma la notizia è rilevante per il mercato perché riguarda il vertice del regolatore e quindi il presidio della fiducia finanziaria e della vigilanza.  • Terna: nuova governance.Il Sole 24 Ore evidenzia che Giuseppina Di Foggia? No: il PDF riporta che Monti sarà il neo CEO e Cuzzilla indicato presidente. Sul piano di mercato, il focus è sulla continuità degli investimenti infrastrutturali di rete e sulla centralità della governance nei player strategici. Non sono indicati nel testo visibile importi di piano o capex.  Industria, Imprese e PNRRTestate coinvolte: Il Sole 24 Ore / Italia Oggi / Corriere del Mezzogiorno / MF• Patuelli lancia l'allarme sulla catena di trasmissione della crisi.Il Sole 24 Ore sintetizza una sequenza chiara: se entrano in crisi le imprese, seguono famiglie e banche. È una lettura importante per il management perché collega immediatamente costo energia, domanda, qualità del credito e stabilità del sistema. La notizia non porta numeri di bilancio, ma identifica con nettezza il rischio macro principale: una crisi che parte dai margini industriali e si propaga al credito.  • Mercato del lavoro e consumi: crescita selettiva, sfida generazionale e costi energetici.Il Sole 24 Ore richiama un mercato “tra crescita selettiva, sfide generazionali, conflitti e costi energetici”. Il dato utile per un lettore C-level è che il contesto non è descritto come recessione uniforme, ma come scenario a doppia velocità: alcuni segmenti reggono, altri subiscono la combinazione tra energia cara e indebolimento della domanda.  • PNRR: da leva straordinaria a test di continuità esecutiva.Italia Oggi definisce il PNRR un banco di prova per disegnare il futuro; il Corriere del Mezzogiorno sottolinea che il PNRR “è stato importante”, ma ora bisogna evitare di vanificare gli effetti prodotti nel Sud. Il messaggio operativo è chiaro: la fase non è più soltanto quella dell'allocazione, ma quella della messa a terra e della continuità degli impatti territoriali. Non emergono nel testo visibile importi o milestone puntuali, quindi non è corretto attribuirne.  • Leonardo/Cingolani: questione di governance e trasparenza.Italia Oggi e MF riportano il “caso Cingolani” e osservano che la sostituzione in Leonardo “merita una spiegazione dal governo”. Per l'industria della difesa e delle partecipate è un tema di stabilità decisionale e di leggibilità verso mercato e stakeholder istituzionali.  Fisco, Normativa e Conti PubbliciTestate coinvolte: Stampa / MF / Il Sole 24 Ore / Corriere della Sera• Patto di stabilità: Bruxelles non apre, il nodo resta la crescita.La Stampa riporta che l'Europa “gela l'Italia” e che il Patto di stabilità non si tocca; MF aggiunge che il Patto “si può sospendere prima della recessione”, rappresentando una linea più possibilista sul piano interpretativo. Sul fronte politico-economico interno ricorre poi il richiamo alla soglia del 3% di deficit, presentata in chiave di vincolo o, per alcuni, di ostacolo alla gestione dell'emergenza energia. KPI esplicito: 3%.  • Appalti pubblici: ANAC segnala frammentazione e minore contendibilità.Il Sole 24 Ore segnala che l'“effetto soglia” negli appalti spezza i lotti e riduce le gare. È una notizia importante perché tocca efficienza della spesa, concorrenza e velocità di esecuzione, con impatto potenziale diretto su PNRR, opere pubbliche e filiere industriali.  • Conti pubblici e caro energia: la pressione fiscale implicita passa dai prezzi.Pur senza nuove misure fiscali dettagliate nel materiale visibile, il combinato disposto tra shock energetico e vincoli europei fa emergere un rischio operativo per imprese e famiglie: meno spazio fiscale e maggior costo di approvvigionamento. È un elemento rilevante per budgeting, cash flow e pricing.   Banche e CreditoTestate coinvolte: Il Sole 24 Ore / Corriere della Sera / Repubblica• Sistema bancario: il rischio non nasce nelle banche ma nei bilanci industriali.Il passaggio più netto è quello riportato da Il Sole 24 Ore con l'allarme di Patuelli: crisi delle imprese, poi delle famiglie, poi delle banche.  • Spread sotto pressione per effetto geopolitico.Il Corriere collega direttamente il rialzo di petrolio e gas alla tensione su spread e borse. Non è riportato un livello numerico dello spread nel testo visibile, quindi il dato corretto da trattenere è la direzione, non il livello. Implicazione business: aumento del premio per il rischio Paese e irrigidimento delle condizioni finanziarie.  • Coordinamento internazionale su prezzi e riserve.Repubblica richiama l'asse FMI / Banca Mondiale / AIE per una “risposta unica su prezzi e riserve”. Segnale positivo: la governance multilaterale è attiva e questo riduce il rischio di risposte disordinate da parte dei singoli Paesi.  Energia e GeopoliticaTestate coinvolte: Corriere della Sera / Repubblica / Il Sole 24 Ore / Stampa / Il Fatto Quotidiano / Domani / Tempo / Foglio / MF / Riformista• Hormuz è il baricentro della giornata economica.La notizia è riportata in modo ampio e ripetuto da quasi tutte le testate: gli Usa bloccano i porti / alzano il blocco navale nello Stretto di Hormuz, l'Iran minaccia ritorsioni e il mercato prezza un taglio potenziale dell'offerta energetica. Repubblica parla di 15 navi schierate; Corriere e altre testate mettono in evidenza il rischio di escalation. KPI espliciti: 15 navi; diesel a €2,50; riferimento a rialzi di petrolio e gas, ma senza quotazioni numeriche leggibili nel testo disponibile.  • Offerta energetica: due letture contrapposte.Da un lato Il Sole 24 Ore parla di nuovi rialzi e minaccia alla disponibilità di offerta; dall'altro, sempre Il Sole con Tabarelli richiama una “abbondanza di petrolio e gas come non mai”. La lettura combinata è manageriale: disponibilità fisica potenzialmente ancora ampia, ma shock logistico e geopolitico sufficienti a far salire i prezzi. • Gas russo: riemerge come tema pragmatico europeo.Domani, MF, Foglio e Il Fatto Quotidiano convergono sul fatto che il gas russo torni al centro del dibattito, sia per esigenze di prezzo sia per sicurezza degli approvvigionamenti. Il punto non è un annuncio operativo, ma il ritorno del tema nella discussione industriale europea.• Autosufficienza energetica: più ruolo alle Regioni.MF evidenzia il tema del ruolo delle Regioni per l'autosufficienza energetica dell'Italia. Segnale utile per imprese energy-intensive e utility: il baricentro della politica energetica può diventare più multilivello, con impatti su autorizzazioni, pianificazione e investimenti locali.  • FAO segnala rischio crisi alimentare.Il Sole 24 Ore collega la crisi di Hormuz anche al profilo alimentare con un allarme FAO su possibile “crisi alimentare”. Per il business ciò significa possibile trasmissione secondaria ai costi logistici, agricoli e distributivi.  Lavoro, competenze e tecnologia Testate coinvolte: Il Sole 24 Ore / Corriere della Sera• AI:il tema dell'intelligenza artificiale non riguarda solo l'etica, ma soprattutto il controllo di risorse strategiche come capitale, potenza di calcolo, dati e filiere tecnologiche. Per le aziende, questo significa che la vera competitività sull'AI dipenderà dalla capacità di accedere e presidiare questi asset.• Mercato del lavoro: la crescita occupazionale sarà sempre più selettiva e condizionata da fattori esterni come costi energetici, conflitti e instabilità economica.

Thus although the subject matter is durvijñeyam, extremely difficult to understand, it becomes easy if one follows the prescribed method. Coming in touch with the Supreme Personality of Godhead is possible through pure devotional service, which begins with śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ. In this regard, Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura quotes a verse from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (2.8.5): praviṣṭaḥ karṇa-randhreṇa svānāṁ bhāva-saroruham. The process of hearing and chanting enters the core of the heart, and in this way one becomes a pure devotee. By continuing this process, one comes to the stage of transcendental love, and then he appreciates the transcendental name, form, qualities and pastimes of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In other words, a pure devotee, by devotional service, is able to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead despite many material impediments, which are all various energies of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Easily making his way through these impediments, a devotee comes directly in contact with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. After all, the material impediments described in these verses are but various energies of the Lord. When a devotee is eager to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he prays to the Lord: ayi nanda-tanuja kiṅkaraṁ patitaṁ māṁ viṣame bhavāmbudhau kṛpayā tava pāda-paṅkaja- sthita-dhūlī-sadṛśaṁ vicintaya “O son of Mahārāja Nanda [Kṛṣṇa], I am Your eternal servitor, yet somehow or other I have fallen into the ocean of birth and death. Please pick me up from this ocean of death and place me as one of the atoms at Your lotus feet.” Being pleased with the devotee, the Lord turns all his material impediments into spiritual service. In this connection Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura quotes a verse from the Viṣṇu Purāṇa: hlādinī sandhinī samvit tvayy ekā sarva-saṁsthitau hlāda-tāpa-karī miśrā tvayi no guṇa-varjite In the material world, the spiritual energy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is manifested as tāpa-karī, which means “causing miseries.” Everyone hankers for happiness, but although happiness originally comes from the pleasure potency of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, in the material world, because of material activities, the pleasure potency of the Lord becomes a source of miseries (hlāda-tāpa-karī). False happiness in the material world is the source of distress, but when one's endeavors for happiness are redirected toward the satisfaction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, this tāpa-karī element of misery is vanquished. An example given in this connection is that extracting fire from wood is certainly difficult, but when the fire comes out it burns the wood to ashes. In other words, experiencing the Supreme Personality of Godhead is extremely difficult for those devoid of devotional service, but everything becomes easier for a devotee, and thus he can very easily meet the Supreme Lord.

This is a talk on personal agency and spiritual well-being as Part 2 of a continuing series on Wellbeing.Personal agency is defined as "the individual's capacity to act intentionally, to make autonomous choices, and to influence their own circumstances and environment." But how free is our decision making process? And how autonomous are we in a world driven by Social Media and AI? Unfortunately, people don't question where their desires originate and whether they are truly self-generated.Personal agency is often associated with the terms self-determination and self-agency. Acharya das questions what personal agency means from a spiritual perspective, beginning from the concept of "self" used in the term ‘self-determination.'At the beginning of the talk Acharya das mentions another series of talks titled “Who Controls your Mind” which can be accessed via the following links:https://open.spotify.com/episode/125xZdjbMeCC1wmN4O8mPm?si=4Vw4cpZoQz6NKEPOKXxACw https://open.spotify.com/episode/5UiR00VEKV5q2HT4L4g7bC?si=2qLshURaTa2VDF0m_68kMQ https://open.spotify.com/episode/0Bb1QwUPfzJN0wIcRT1qbU?si=eu3rhEToQkGR3SYEQAXF-A https://open.spotify.com/episode/6FLoEVfJoEmQ7frixdVuCC?si=W5NVIIdbSImv31IIdPwRAQ https://acharyadas.com/series/who-controls-your-mind/ Verses quoted in this talk:“The individual is the passenger in the chariot of the material body, and intelligence is the driver. Mind is the driving instrument, and the senses are the horses. The self is thus the enjoyer or sufferer in the association of the mind and senses. So it is understood by great thinkers.” Katha Upanisad 1.3.3-4The working senses are superior to dull matter; mind is higher than the senses; intelligence is still higher than the mind; and he [the soul] is even higher than the intelligence. Bhagavad-gita 3.42A man must elevate himself by his own mind, not degrade himself. The mind is the friend of the conditioned soul, and his enemy as well. Bhagavad-gita 6.5For him who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends; but for one who has failed to do so, his very mind will be the greatest enemy. Bhagavad-gita 6.6This uncontrolled mind is the greatest enemy of the living entity. If one neglects it or gives it a chance, it will grow more and more powerful and will become victorious. Although it is not factual, it is very strong. It covers the constitutional position of the self/atma. Bhāgavata Purāṇa 5.11.17For one whose mind is unbridled, self-realization is difficult work. But he whose mind is controlled and who strives by right means is assured of success. That is My opinion. Bhagavad-gita 6.36“One who is not connected with the Supreme Soul can have neither transcendental intelligence nor a steady mind, without which there is no possibility of peace. And how can there be any happiness without peace?” – Bhagavad-gita 2.66Chapters 00:00:10 Introduction and Topic Change ‎ 00:02:16 Modern Mind Control and Social Media Manipulation ‎ 00:04:32 The Illusion of Engagement and Control ‎ 00:06:34 Defining Personal Agency ‎ 00:10:46 The Science of Advertising and Manipulation ‎ 00:13:51 Redefining Personal Agency ‎ 00:15:52 The Question of Self-Identity ‎ 00:18:14 Vedic Understanding of Self ‎ 00:25:21 The Chariot Analogy ‎ 00:28:28 The Mind as Friend and Enemy ‎ 00:30:48 Rat Trap Happiness ‎ 00:32:37 The Importance of Good Decision-Making ‎ 00:35:30 The Uncontrolled Mind as Enemy ‎ 00:36:30 The Path to Self-Realization ‎ 00:37:44 Marching to a Different Beat ‎ 00:40:20 Connection to the Supreme ‎ 00:41:54 The Role of Meditation ‎

Is your water filter giving you something even more contaminated than what's flowing from the tap? Jessica Wynn pours us some facts on Skeptical Sunday.Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Jessica Wynn!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1307On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:Most US tap water meets or exceeds federal safety standards, but those regulations were written decades ago — meaning your water may be "safe" by outdated benchmarks that don't account for emerging threats like PFAS forever chemicals, agricultural runoff, and lead from aging infrastructure.A neglected water filter can become a breeding ground for bacteria, making your water dirtier than what comes straight from the tap — if you're not replacing your Brita, Pur, or other cartridge on schedule, you're essentially cultivating a miniature ecosystem in your fridge.The bottled water industry is largely repackaged tap water sold at a massive markup — brands like Dasani and Aquafina source from municipal supplies, and the FDA regulates bottled water less strictly than the EPA regulates what flows from your faucet.Scammers and pseudoscience have infiltrated the water filter market — from dishonest salespeople using chemical reagents to fake contamination in your home, to "alkaline" and "structured water" claims that have zero scientific backing, fear is the industry's most profitable product.You can take control of your water quality with a few simple, empowering steps — request your free Consumer Confidence Report from your local utility, test your water independently, match any filter you buy to the specific contaminants found, and look for NSF or WQA certification to ensure it actually does what it claims.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

Cʹest un casse, brillant, aussi brillant que les lumières de Las Vegas Oceanʹs Eleven, un film de Steven Soderbergh sorti en 2001. Remake de lʹInconnu de Las Vegas (Oceanʹs Eleven), sorti en 1960 de Lewis Milestone avec Frank Sinatra, notre film du jour raconte lʹhistoire de Danny Ocean qui veut reconquérir sa femme, ruiner lʹamant de celle-ci en procédant au plus grand casse quʹà connu Las Vegas en volant, la même nuit, trois des plus grands casinos de la ville. Pour ce faire, il sʹentoure dʹune équipe soudée et sʹen vont faire des misères au propriétaire des casinos. Le film brille par son casting exceptionnel : ils sont toutes et tous là : Georges Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Bernie Mac, Don Cheadle, Andy García, Julia Roberts, Elliott Gould et Carl Reiner. Pur divertissement, il est emmené à bon rythme entre le film de gangster, le film dʹarnaque et le film dʹamour, avec brio, efficacité et séduction. Steven Soderbergh, réalisateur aux doigts dʹor, change complètement dʹunivers après Erin Brockovich et Traffic et propose une resucée énergique dʹun classique du cinéma de genre, cʹest-à-dire quelque chose entre lʹarnaque et le film de bande de potes. Oceanʹs Eleven est bien accueilli à sa sortie. Forcément, Soderbergh, le réalisateur, est en odeur de sainteté, et puis surtout, il y a la fine fleur dʹHollywood qui joue dedans et qui à lʹair de bien sʹamuser. Et tout le monde veut voir ça. Le film rapporte plus de 450 millions de dollars au box-office mondial. Il y aura des suites, Ocean's Twelve en 2004 et Ocean's Thirteen en 2007 où les acteurs reprennent tous plus ou moins leur rôle.

¡Claro que no eran dioses! Eran mortales los intrusos porque padecían enfermedades y era fácil matarlos. Si los araucanos de Chile del siglo dieciséis hubieran sabido esto de antemano, no habrían sido tan fácil presa de los conquistadores españoles cuando éstos arribaron a sus tierras. Ahora tendrían que entregarse a la tarea de expulsar a los invasores. Pero lo harían con gusto, movidos por el mero placer de la venganza. Los españoles los habían maltratado a tal extremo que se armó tremenda contienda entre los caciques por decidir cuál de ellos habría de comandar las tropas araucanas. De no haber sido por el sabio consejo del anciano Colocolo, allí mismo habría terminado la proyectada guerra. Esto fue lo que propuso el venerado cacique: que fuera jefe aquel que soportara más tiempo un gran madero en los hombros. Para la prueba emplearon un tronco tan pesado que les costó trabajo hacerlo rodar. Paycabí lo sostuvo en sus hombros durante seis horas. Purén y Ongolmo, a su turno, lograron sostenerlo medio día. Cuando Elicura dejó caer de sus hombros el madero a las nueve horas, lo tomó Tucapel, quien lo llevó a cuestas durante catorce. Lincoya el fornido se quitó la capa y en sus tremendas espaldas cargó el leño de sol a sol. Ya se consideraba vencedor cuando llegó el valiente Caupolicán, quien agarró el áspero y nudoso tronco como si fuera una vara y lo mantuvo firme en sus hombros durante tres días y tres noches sin dar muestras de fatiga. Cuando al tercer día lanzó lejos el tronco, los atónitos espectadores ya habían consentido descargar sobre sus robustos hombros la pesada y dura tarea que le esperaba.1 Por algo sería que, en memoria del gran Caupolicán, Rubén Darío compuso un soneto cuya primera estrofa dice: Es algo formidable que vio la vieja raza: robusto tronco de árbol al hombro de un campeón salvaje y aguerrido, cuya fornida maza blandiera el brazo de Hércules, o el brazo de Sansón.»2 Esta anécdota de Don Alonso de Ercilla trae a la memoria lo que hizo Jesucristo para librarnos del poder de nuestro enemigo común. Es cierto que Satanás es «el príncipe de este mundo»,3 pero nos ha engañado haciéndonos pensar que es más poderoso de lo que es, ¡como si fuera Dios con mayúscula y no con minúscula! Ahora los que hemos sufrido sus maltratos tenemos que hacerle frente, pero no con nuestro propio poder sino con el poder del Dios Fuerte que satisfizo los requisitos divinos para librarnos de ese yugo opresor. Es que el Padre eterno en su infinita sabiduría descargó sobre los robustos hombros de su valiente Hijo la pesada y dura tarea de expulsar al invasor y así salvar al pecador. Esto no fue lo que propuso sino lo que dispuso nuestro Cacique celestial: que el Capitán de nuestra salvación muriera sin pecado propio alguno después de cargar en sus hombros no sólo el peso del madero en el que fue clavado sino también el peso del pecado de toda la humanidad, de modo que a nosotros no nos tocara más que aceptar a ese Campeón de nuestra redención como nuestro Salvador personal.

Journée internationale de la francophonie: «Le français diminue parce que l'école est très mauvaise»

Le français est la quatrième langue la plus parlée dans le monde, selon le rapport de l'OIF publié à l'occasion de la journée mondiale de la francophonie ce vendredi 20 mars. D'après l'organisation - qui utilise une nouvelle méthode de comptage -, 396 millions de personnes le parlent dans le monde, dont 65% en Afrique. Et selon les tendances, à l'horizon 2050, neuf locuteurs sur dix vivront sur le continent africain. Le français, langue en recul, institutionnelle, dans l'ombre des algorithmes ? Pas pour Nimrod. Le poète, romancier et essayiste né au Tchad, qui vit et travaille en France, est l'invité de RFI. RFI : Pour commencer, est-ce qu'il y a un mot en particulier que vous aimez dans la langue française ? Nimrod : Le mot « douceur ». L'attaque « dou », c'est un peu sombre, comme fermé. Et ça s'ouvre à la fin « ceur », « douceur ». Il y a comme un petit cheminement très très subtil, très très délicat. Et écrire, c'est ça, c'est faire en sorte que les mots s'accordent. Est-ce que vous êtes fier d'écrire en français ? C'est une question qui tombe sous le sens. J'ai toujours estimé qu'on écrit une langue parce qu'on l'aime, parce qu'on en est vraiment passionné. C'est la plus grande maîtresse qu'on aurait jamais. Je pourrais même dire que c'est ma première langue, alors que c'est une langue apprise à partir de l'âge de six ans. Mais ça a fait toute ma vie parce que tout ce que je peux dire de subtil, de plus secret, de plus grand, dans cette langue-là, je peux assurer mon identité. Vous avez déjà dit par le passé que c'est votre passeport cette langue française ? Oui, mais oui ! Et la francophonie alors ? Est-ce que ça a un sens pour vous ? Senghor disait : On parle de francophone, mais on ne parle pas d' « anglophonie ». Il dit que la francophonie, « c'est le français tel qu'il se parle dans le monde ». « Le français, Soleil », et il écrit soleil avec grand S, « qui brille hors de l'Hexagone ». Dans cette phrase, il y a vraiment tout. D'une certaine manière, il dépossède la France et il ne reconnaît le français que pour nous autres périphériques. Et donc la francophonie, oui, très bien, mais personne ne parle le francophone. Il y a un français tchadien, un français camerounais, un français sénégalais, mais c'est toujours le français. Ce n'est pas le francophone. Comment est-ce que vous percevez dans votre pays natal, le Tchad, le recul du français ou du français tchadien, comme vous venez de le dire, au profit de l'arabe de langue maternelle ? Je crains que ce soient des choses vraiment idéologiques, pour ne parler que du Tchad. De mon temps, dans les années 1980, avec la guerre, le français était à un bon niveau et l'école aussi était à un bon niveau. Aujourd'hui, c'est complètement catastrophique. Tout est déstructuré. On parle l'arabe, mais qui parle l'arabe ? Nous parlons un dialecte. C'est vrai, nous adorons notre arabe tchadien qui est une variante de l'arabe soudanais, mais ce n'est pas le grand arabe, l'arabe littéraire, l'arabe du Coran. Non, non, le français diminue parce que l'école est très très mauvaise. L'université est très très mauvaise. Et si nous voulons que nos langues deviennent « concurrentielles » – c'est d'ailleurs un très mauvais mot – ou du moins collaborent à d'autres grandes langues impériales, mais il faudra s'en donner les moyens. Et d'ailleurs, si le français ne tient pas la route, ça vient de quoi ? Ça vient de ce qu'il n'y a pas des industries culturelles qui vont avec. J'aurais bien voulu écrire dans ma langue maternelle. Mais si je l'écris, surtout que je viens d'un peuple de 15 000 âmes sur les 20 millions de Tchadiens... Purée ! Dans son dernier rapport, l'OIF, l'Organisation de la Francophonie, indique que la francophonie se trouve à un tournant stratégique de son histoire et indique que la survie d'une langue passe désormais aussi par son adaptation aux algorithmes. Sachant que très peu de contenus en ligne sont en français, 3,5 % selon l'OIF, c'est un enjeu. Y a-t-il vraiment une question de survie, selon vous ? Pas du tout. Ceux qui nous parlent d'algorithme, ils voient leur économie tout simplement. Ce n'est pas parce que nos référencements ne dépassent pas 3 % que ça nous enlève quelque existence que ce soit. Ça fait plus de 40 ans que je vis en exil, mais quand je reviens au Tchad, c'est toujours cette diversité qui s'embrasse, qui se traduit entre elle, qui « mouvoit ». Qui a jamais référencé tout cela ? Personne. Ce sont des idéologies économiques. Mais l'économie réelle, elle se fait ailleurs.

Exploring the Connection Between Matthew 17 and the Book of Esther

Exploring the Connection Between Matthew 17 and the Book of Esther For BibleInTen.com – By DH – 14th March 2026 Welcome back to Bible in Ten. Today we come to Matthew 17, and in this series that leads us naturally to Book 17 of the Old Testament: Esther. And with an explanation of the overall pictorial contents of Matthew 17 provided in the previous episode, Matthew chapter 17 becomes much clearer and in this supplementary episode, we will see how Esther strengthens it as a supporting witness. Esther is not just a story about Jewish survival in Persia.  Esther is a book about the Lord hidden from open view, but still directing all things toward redemption. The book exists not mainly to magnify the Jews, but to show the unseen faithfulness of God in preserving them for the sake of His promises and ultimately for the sake of the Redeemer, the true subject of Scripture. The Esther Bible Study available on the Superior Word develops the following pictures: Ahasuerus pictures God, the ruler over the world. Vashti pictures disobedience and loss of access to the throne. Esther pictures the Gospel, especially in her mediating role before the king. Haman pictures Law, even law bringing wrath and death. Mordecai pictures Christ: hidden at first, then honored, then exalted, then clothed with authority, then writing with full power, then sending letters of peace and truth, and finally having his greatness recorded through all the realm. That makes Esther a strong support for what Matthew 17 is picturing. 1) “After six days” — the approach to kingdom rest Matthew 17 begins, “after six days.”  As was said this points toward the six-thousand-year course of man's time before the seventh-day rest, the millennial kingdom. Esther supports this by opening in a royal setting already marked by splendor, order, and throne-rule. Shushan is treated almost like a paradise-throne setting, and Ahasuerus is taken as picturing the divine throne-rule itself. So both chapters begin not with chaos, but with the king and the court already in view. 2) Christ revealed in glory before a select company On the mountain, Jesus is transfigured before Peter, James, and John. That is the hidden unveiling of the King before His glory is openly seen by all. Esther supports this pattern through hiddenness before manifestation. The whole book works by concealed identity, concealed movements, and God working in the background long before the reversal appears.  The Lord is not named openly in Esther, yet He is there, hidden, moving everything toward the appointed outcome. So Matthew 17's select-company glory scene sits very comfortably beside Esther's hidden-providence structure. 3) Moses and Elijah testify that all prior revelation converges on Christ Moses and Elijah appear with Jesus, but not as equals. They are witnesses. That fits Esther's Christ structure too. The whole book drives toward one central exalted figure: not Vashti, not Haman, not even Esther by herself, but finally Mordecai in exaltation. And Mordecai is clearly picturing Christ Jesus, the one advanced to authority by the king. So just as Matthew 17 narrows the law and prophets toward Christ, Esther narrows all of its movements toward the greatness of Mordecai, a picture of the greatness of Christ. 4) “Hear Him” and “Jesus only” This is the heart of Matthew 17. The Father says, “Hear Him,” and the disciples then see “Jesus only.” That fits Esther, because Esther repeatedly moves the reader away from outward structures and toward the one through whom life and deliverance actually come. Esther is a picture of the beautiful Gospel message, but Mordecai is the Christ figure who ends up invested with the king's authority and acting with the signet.  The signet granted to Mordecai pictures the authority of Christ. So if Matthew 17 says, in effect, “Hear Him”, Esther says in its own symbolic way: the decisive authority now rests with the Christ-figure who bears the king's signet. 5) Hidden glory must wait for resurrection-grounded disclosure Jesus tells them not to publicise the vision until after resurrection. Again, Esther supports this because Esther is a book of timed disclosure. Esther conceals her identity, Mordecai watches from outside, and the hidden plan only comes into the open at the appointed hour. The Lord is working behind the scenes and the book's whole structure depends on that hiddenness. So Matthew 17 and Esther both teach: that public revelation comes only when the right moment arrives. 6) Elijah / restoration and Israel's future turning Matthew 17 speaks of Elijah in two ways at once: John the Baptist has already fulfilled an Elijah-like role, but Jesus' wording also leaves a still-future restoration role in view. Esther also supports a future restoration by showing that the covenant people are threatened but not discarded. Esther is treated as a book of redemptive history in which the Jews are preserved because God's promises to them stand, and because the Messiah must come and return in connection with them. Esther strengthens the Matthew 17 reading that Israel is not finally cast off. God is not finished with Israel chiefly through Jesus' future-tense words about Elijah restoring all things, and then reinforced through the picture of Israel's healing and restored sonship later in the chapter.” Though threatened and with God's face hidden from open view, they are brought through to preservation, mourning, reversal, and future blessing 7) The afflicted boy and Israel's incurable condition The Matthew 17 explanation treats the afflicted boy as picturing Israel in its historical condition: wounded, unstable, and untreatable by human means. Esther strongly confirms that pattern. The Jews stand under a decree of destruction that has to be properly and purposefully dealt with. Haman, picturing Law, has issued a death-word, and the people are trapped unless royal intervention occurs. In Matthew 17 the boy is incurable by the disciples. IN Esther the Jews are doomed under an irreversible decree. In both: the people cannot heal or save themselves. 8) Christ alone intervenes to heal and deliver In Matthew 17, Jesus heals what the disciples could not. In Esther, the same pattern appears through the Mordecai-Christ picture and the Esther-Gospel mediation. Matthew 17 pictures Israel's future restoration, healing, and restored sonship through Christ. The book of Esther supports that pattern by showing that although the first decree of death cannot be revoked, a new decree can be issued through Mordecai's royal authority that brings life to the threatened people. The old word of death cannot simply be revoked, but another word can be issued which grants life. That second word comes through Esther and Mordecai, and the edict issued by Mordecai is explicitly treated as a picture of the New Covenant. Mordecai, picturing Christ, receives the signet, acts with royal authority, and sends out the saving word. Thus Esther is supportive of Matthew 17's portrayal of Messiah Himself being the one who intervenes. 9) The cross remains central IN Matthew 17 Jesus speaks of betrayal, death, and resurrection. A portion of the notes by CG on this from Esther chapter 10 bear repeating:   Haman pictures Law, but Christ actually died. It was Christ who was nailed to the cross, and so in type and picture, Christ became our Haman, our Man under Law, if you will. It is no different at all than Christ equating Himself with the serpent on the pole in John 3:14, or Paul saying that God made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us.    In the death of His body, the law died with Him for all who believe. For all who don't, Law, and thus the enmity, remains. This is where the marvelous symbolism of a very misunderstood passage in the book of John is explained. It says in John 20, “Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb; and he saw the linen cloths lying there, and the handkerchief that had been around His head, not lying with the linen cloths, but folded together in a place by itself.” Many fanciful explanations have been made up about this, but the truth is revealed in what happened to Haman, when he was taken to be executed... they covered his face. The Law was to die. Christ died in fulfillment of the law. When He arose, the face covering was removed, and carefully folded. It was an intentional act of the Lord showing that the shame of death through Law had been removed for those who trust in Him. The people of Israel, the Jews, even to this day, celebrate Purim, and yet they are celebrating the exact opposite of what they think they are celebrating. They curse Haman, stamp their feet, and howl wildly as his name is read, and yet, he simply pictures Law that they are still under. Until they come to Christ, Haman will continue to come after them to destroy, to be killed, and to be annihilated because of the ministry of death, meaning Law (2 Corinthians 3:7). Why do the Jews celebrate Purim? It is because of what pur signifies. It is a lot, a broken piece, and thus Purim, the plural of pur, signifies broken pieces. Pur means “to break,” “frustrate,” “make ineffectual,” “annul,” “bring to naught.” This is what Christ has done concerning our covenant with death according to Paul – For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.   19 For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.” 20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. 22 For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; 23 but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 The Jews cling to the law, but it is Christ who has defeated that enemy. The law is annulled in Christ. This is the message of Purim.   Life Application  There is also a striking present-day echo. In 2026, Purim began on the evening of March 2nd just 2 days after Israel was again in direct conflict with Iran. Just as Haman was also not himself Persian (he was Amalekite who gained influence at the heart of the palace and used imperial power against God's people).  In a similar way,  The Islamic Republic of Iran's rulers are militant usurpers who seized control of the land of Persia in 1979 and have held the nation in bondage ever since. Even the recent reports and speculation about Israeli intelligence using covert medical cover—dentists, hidden tracking, to coordinate a sudden destruction on the Supreme Leader —carry an Esther-like atmosphere.    Just for fun check out the link to a stop motion lego video about this by “Stop Motion Sam”! The deeper parallel is the same: the enemy appears secure, the plot seems advanced, yet unseen movements are already in motion, and when the appointed moment comes, the reversal is sudden.

I really want to thank Divyanāma Prabhu and Śraddhā Devī Dāsī for threading the needle, because it's not so easy to land in all these places and have a stretch of time that we've had to sit here and do bhajan. I keep resonating with the cleaning ladies who asked Ānanda Vrindāvana if we all live in one āśrama back in California, and she said, "No, we're from all over the world," but these yātrās are like living in one āśrama and having the opportunity to see what it's like. See how you like it—just hearing and chanting and going to holy places. And if you do like it, then you're really lucky, because this is life. The other part of the life is to take whatever drop we get and give it to as many people as possible. The spiritual mathematics given in the Caitanya-caritāmṛt is: the more you give it out, the more it swells in our own lives. Dear Śrīla Prabhupāda, dear Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, dear Śrīla Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya, Śrīla Rāmānanda Rāya, Śrīla Svarūpa Dāmodara, and all the residents of Jagannātha Purī who are followers of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu: If You so desire, please instill in our hearts a drop of the mercy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu—for You are His great devotees—so that we can follow in the footsteps of Lord Caitanya by following the footsteps of Śrīla Prabhupāda and his followers, and bring millions and millions of people back here to Jagannātha Purī to chant, dance, and live in one huge āśrama. Make the whole world one āśrama with everyone chanting and hearing.

The Supreme Refuge: Durgā's Transformation Into the Hindu Great Goddess (SUNY Press, 2025) provides the first comprehensive examination of the Hindu Great Goddess Durgā, one of the most significant deities in the Hindu pantheon, who is celebrated annually during the Navarātra festival, a widely observed event across the Hindu world. Drawing on textual, inscriptional, and iconographic evidence, the study traces Durgā's evolution from a minor goddess to her identification as the Mahādevī, or Great Goddess. It presents an alternative chronology for hymnic materials, aligning them more closely with early iconographic depictions and offering new insights into misidentified attributes of the goddess. The work incorporates evidence from beyond South Asia to contextualize external influences on Durgā's persona and her central myths, particularly her defeat of the buffalo demon Mahiṣa. A detailed analysis of the myths in the influential Devī Māhātmya against earlier Purāṇic accounts highlights the text's sophisticated theological approach. Its strategy places Durgā in a transcendent role while asserting her as the supreme deity and ultimate refuge, accessible to both kings and commoners in dire need of her support.

Seeing the assembly of devotees eagerly waiting to purchase the Name, Lord Nityānanda first examines each of them to test their qualification; then, He sells them the Name by bargaining for His price accordingly. Sometimes when we go out—just as we were recently, as recently as yesterday, to people in the dhāma where we just were, (first Māyāpur, then Jagannātha Purī, then Vṛndāvana) we offer people a little prasādam, a picture of Kṛṣṇa, and transcendental literature. And we give them the opportunity; we bargain with them. We say, “Please give something.” They say, “I don't have anything.” “Nothing? Give something.” Some people will give some small donation, whatever they can afford. Some people are ready to immediately give something in return, recognizing the value, and they say, “I could hardly give enough.” Other people are hesitant, but we find, especially in India, everybody has something. We met a man digging a ditch, and all he was wearing was a gamchā. And we suggested that, on behalf of Lord Nityānanda, we would accept a donation. Some of the devotees who were watching thought, “Where is he going to find a rupee?” Well, it's in the roll! When you put on a gamchā, you have to roll it. It's in there. Similarly, everyone's got something rolled up somewhere that they can offer. Lord Nityānanda goes around. He finds what can somebody give that gets them started in giving. Because, as Kṛṣṇa says in the Bhagavad-gītā (BG 3.9): yajñārthāt karmaṇo 'nyatra loko 'yaṁ karma-bandhanaḥ tad-arthaṁ karma kaunteya mukta-saṅgaḥ samācara Human life is made successful by giving. When we give, we grow and we notice that not only do we survive giving away what we're so attached to, we feel complete when we give. Paradoxically, we give away and we grow. We feel fuller, because the soul is a servant of Kṛṣṇa—and any way we can serve fills us up immediately. It is natural for the soul to feel happy and full. So Lord Nityānanda quizzes each person to see what level they can start their giving, and then He adjusts the price accordingly. Oh, my dear friends, if you really want to buy this pure Holy Name, then just come along with me, for I am now going to meet with this Nityānanda Mahājana. (Translation, verse 4) That line always gets me, because just think, if someone's going there and they say, “Hey, why don't you come along?” What a life-changing event to meet Nityānanda Prabhu, just like Raghunātha dāsa Gosvāmī, He wanted to join Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.,, ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://vaisesikadasayatra.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #

Before Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura departed for the spiritual world, he stayed in this place where he was engaged in bhajana. Nearby here is the area where Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu chased after the sand dune, considering it to be Govardhana Hill—a very sacred place here in Jagannātha Purī. Two weeks before he left, his disciple, A.C. Bhaktivedanta, had written him a letter as a householder and asked, "What can I do for your mission?" Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura asked him to preach in English. He had also told him previously, and reconfirmed: "You should print books." In fact, he said at Rādhā-kuṇḍa, "If you ever get money, print books." Our Founder-Ācārya of ISKCON, Śrīla A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda, followed those instructions with his heart, mind, and soul. To that end, he published hundreds of books that were distributed in the millions; and even today, we are increasing that number all over the world. For Bhādra Pūrṇimā 2026—the great festival that is now taken up by devotees on every continent of the world—we, in the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, have the solemn goal to distribute at least 108,000 Śrīmad-Bhāgavatams in the next several months leading up to the day of Bhādra. The full moon day, during which the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam itself says that the giving away of a Bhāgavatam on that lunar celebration qualifies one to go back home, back to Godhead. We pray to Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura, who instructed his dear disciple to spread this all over the world, that we may help by following the footsteps of Śrīla Prabhupāda. May we smash this goal together all over the world, uniting around the principle of spreading Krishna consciousness to all the poor people of the world who have no idea that the goal of life is to go back home, back to Godhead. Please, let us help them. Let us distribute the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam: 108,000 sets. Please go out and do as many as you can! ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://vaisesikadasayatra.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #pilgrimageoftheheart #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

When Caitanya Mahāprabhu was teaching about devotional service, he presented 64 items. One of them is chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa; another is associating with devotees; and others are living in a holy Dhāma, reading Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and worshiping the Deity. He said that of all the 64, these five are so potent that even if you have a little connection with them, you'll make advancement in devotional service. And so, this "coming to the Dhāma" is noticeably prominent in his Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's teachings, of course, he said you should always live in the Dhāma—but if you can't be there physically, you should be there in your mind and heart. But how will you develop such a connection unless you come here? That's why we're here. So, in great humility, we enter this holy place. I offer my respectful obeisances to His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda, who introduced this Dhāma to us, as well as all the other aspects of devotional service. Not only did he introduce it, but he keeps introducing it to us through his books and through all his lectures, teachings—and also by the example he set by inviting his whole international society to come every year. Of course, there were fewer devotees at that time, but I think the invitation still holds. He relished seeing all of his fledgling disciples from various parts of the world—some of them freezing cold, others from places where no one had ever heard "Hare Kṛṣṇa"—coming into the Dhāma together: Māyāpur, Vṛndāvana, and sometimes Purī. So, we offer our respectful obeisances to Śrīla Prabhupāda and beg his permission to be in this Dhāma for a week, and to hear and chant together. While we are here as travelers—because you've already noticed—"travel" comes from the word travail. If you follow the etymology, everyone knows travail means an extreme of discomfort, but it also traces back to an instrument of torture. But it's not torture when we know we are coming to the Dhāma. Just going through security is kind of like a preparation for leaving this world: "And what do you still have on you, buddy? We'll go through it and look." We can't hide anything in this world. It all goes through an X-ray machine and a pat-down somewhere. It is best if we dispense of the useless things that we're carrying around with us before we get to the final security checkpoint. This is a good place to do it. Not that we come here just to leave our troubles or sins, but naturally, when we come here in a mood of service, we'll find that whatever material aspirations we have can be transformed into aspirations for serving Kṛṣṇa. After all, that's what's permanent. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://vaisesikadasayatra.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritu

Caitanya Mahāprabhu got the real thing directly from the Kūrma Purāṇa. He took that and He had it copied; and then He came all the way back here to Madurai, specifically to assuage the anxiety of Rāmadāsa Vipra—his anxiety that Sītā had been stolen—and He showed him the original passage of the Kūrma Purāṇa, which definitively states what Mahāprabhu had concluded and had presented to Rāmadāsa Vipra. We can learn much from this. First of all, when there is genuine, spontaneous devotion in the heart of a devotee, Mahāprabhu is greatly appreciative; and in this case, He moved heaven and earth in order to assuage the spiritual anxiety of this pure devotee. What is also apparent from this pastime is that śāstra is of paramount importance; because Caitanya Mahāprabhu presented the truth of the situation, but He wasn't satisfied until He got the original manuscript, had it copied, and brought it back to Rāmadāsa Vipra from the Kūrma Purāṇa to show him the proof. So, every system of knowledge has to have an ultimate proof, and it has to be knowledge that proves itself. It has to be self-luminous, self-evident. That is the śāstra. So, our movement, although it's based on spontaneous devotional service—and you see that in this pastime—it's also foundationally situated in śāstra at the same time. Otherwise, Caitanya Mahāprabhu could have just appreciated the sentiment of the brāhmaṇa and left it at that, but He walked hundreds of miles to and from, found the śāstra, and found it so important to bring the original leaf back. So, think how important it is for us that we have availability to the Bhagavad-gītā, to the entire Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, to the Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu, and Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta. I was berating the so-called "glory" of technology this morning, but the upside in yukta-vairāgya is that because of modern digital capabilities, we're able to have all these śāstras at our fingertips. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #globalyouthretreat #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
