Steven Puri has produced Academy Award-winning visual effects on films like Independence Day, Braveheart, and Se7en, climbed the executive ladder at DreamWorks and 20th Century Fox, and built three tech companies — two of which failed. Out of those failures came a powerful question: why do some people sustain high performance without burning out, while others grind themselves into the ground?In this episode, Jeff and Steven break down what flow actually is, what your brain is doing when you're in it, how to trigger it consistently, and why most founders are unknowingly working against their own neurology every single day.Key Takeaways[0:00] — Multitasking is a myth. Your brain context switches — and every switch costs you.[4:10] — Steven's origin: bet on proximity to greatness. From Virginia to USC to an Academy Award for Independence Day.[14:55] — What Hollywood taught him: single-minded determination is what separates good from legendary.[22:25] — The Fox wake-up call: he was just the guy in the chair. So he left to build something of his own.[38:55] — The accidental flow state: a Wi-Fi outage on a 2.5-hour flight produced his best work ever — and he didn't even notice time passing.[48:20] — What flow actually feels like: time disappears, distractions drop, self-consciousness fades, and you finish feeling energized — not drained.[51:20] — The neuroscience: fMRI scans show prefrontal cortex activity drops in flow. You stop editing yourself and just work.[55:30] — The 15–23 minute rule: that's how long it takes to drop into flow. One interruption resets the clock.[1:01:00] — Ron Bass's rule: no family talk until he'd written for hours. "When I start talking, I can no longer hear the voices in my head."Tweetable Quotes"Our brains don't multitask. They context switch — and every switch costs you energy you could have spent going deep." — Steven Puri"It takes 15 to 23 minutes to drop into flow. One Slack ping resets the clock to zero. That's not costing you a minute — it's costing you a whole session." — Jeff Mains"You can have results or excuses. Can't have both." — Steven Puri"When I start talking to my family, I can no longer hear the voices in my head. And that's what I get paid for." — Ron Bass (via Steven Puri)"The companies with the biggest incentive for your distraction don't want you to write the book, start the company, or open the restaurant. Your graveyard is their business model." — Steven Puri"Americans overestimate what they can do in a day and underestimate what they can do in a year." — Steven Puri"Why use your brain poorly? You wouldn't type on your keyboard upside down." — Steven Puri"Even if it's just one hour a day, make that hour have the power of two." — Steven Puri"Think of the one thing you could do today that would move your life forward. Don't go to sleep until it's done." — Steven Puri"Build a business of significance while living an epic, adventurous life — that is the whole game." — Jeff MainsSaaS Leadership Lessons1. Proximity to Greatness Is a Strategy Steven's career accelerated every time he put himself in rooms with top performers — from mopping floors near Michael Jordan (metaphorically) to working under Fincher and Cameron. For SaaS founders: deliberately seek mentors, communities, and masterminds where the standard is higher than your current one. You absorb more than you realize.2. The Chair Doesn't Define the Mission Steven hit a wall as a studio executive — well-paid, high-profile, but not his. He was "babysitting Die Hard 5." Many SaaS founders face this inside larger orgs or even their own companies as they scale — doing the job instead of building the vision. Define what you are building, not just what the role requires.3. Protect Your Peak Hours Like Revenue Just as Ron Bass refused to speak to his family until he'd written for hours, the highest-output founders treat their cognitive peak hours as non-negotiable protected time. For most people this is morning. Block it. Turn off Slack. Tell your team. That hour generates disproportionate value — protect it before the reactive demands of leadership consume it.4. Flow State Is a Competitive Advantage — Not a Luxury The research shows flow produces output up to 5x greater per hour. For a SaaS founder juggling product, team, and go-to-market, the difference between 1 hour of deep flow work and 1 hour of fragmented distraction is compounding. Learning to trigger flow is not a wellness exercise — it is a business efficiency investment.5. Monotasking and Time-Boxing Are Table Stakes Multitasking is scientifically false. Context switching burns cognitive resources. The most productive founders pick one thing, finish it, then move to the next. Pair this with Parkinson's Law: time-box every task. Estimates train your brain, create urgency, and prevent the endless stretch that kills output. These two habits alone will outperform most productivity systems.6. One Thing Per Day Compounds Into a Different Life Steven's simplest and most powerful habit: before touching the phone each morning, identify the one thing that would move your life forward today. Not five things. One. Do it before the day's noise sets in. Thirty days of this looks like progress. A year of this looks like a different company.Guest Resourceswww.thesukha.co/mediaSteven@TheSukha.cowww.TheSukha.cohttps://www.linkedin.com/in/steven-puri/Episode SponsorThe Futureproof Series - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfkXKUPZ5xuOqMPR7_gzGybncTtavyR1NThe Captain's KeysSmall Fish, Big Pond – https://smallfishbigpond.com/ Use the promo code ‘SaaSFuel'Champion Leadership Group – https://championleadership.com/https://jeffmains.com/books/SaaS Fuel ResourcesWebsite - https://championleadership.com/Jeff Mains on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffkmains/Twitter - https://twitter.com/jeffkmainsFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/thesaasguy/Instagram - https://instagram.com/jeffkmains

How to drop into flow: Charles Limb, look at brains of jazz musicians, prefrontal cortex stops when they drop in to the music. Music, 60-90 beats per minutes, d minor, non vocal, lulling, long melodical passages, (not love or hate it) Film composers binaural beats in headphones stimulates the brain to pay attention in a different way. Rain triggers it too. What kind of sound works for you the best to reach that flow state? Are you going to get that book out of you in this lifetime?

The healdines of the day by The Indian Express

You use the word every week — juggernaut: an unstoppable, crushing force. It comes from Jagannātha, "Lord of the Universe," whose chariot festival rolls through Puri, Odisha, today.For centuries, traveler and missionary accounts — from the 1300s through the British era — claimed devotees threw themselves under the massive chariot wheels, and that image hardened into the English word. Historians read those deaths as accidents in immense crowds, not a rite. And the word erased the festival's real meaning: Rath Yatra is the one day of the year the deity leaves the sanctum to come out to everyone — the chariot rope is for any hand that reaches for it.A scholar's quick decode of how one festival became one of English's most misunderstood words.Chapters0:00 The word you already know0:12 Jagannātha and the chariot0:52 What the accounts got wrong1:17 The wheels and the welcomeSources: European traveler accounts (Odoric of Pordenone, 14th c.), British-era missionary writings, and modern scholarship on the Jagannātha tradition.

VOV1 - Trong nỗ lực giảm phụ thuộc vào dầu thô nhập khẩu và thúc đẩy chuyển đổi năng lượng, Ấn Độ đang thúc đẩy sản xuất các dòng xe sử dụng nhiên liệu linh hoạt (flex-fuel), có khả năng vận hành với hỗn hợp xăng sinh học pha trộn ethanol với tỷ lệ lên tới 85%.Phát biểu tại lễ ra mắt các mẫu xe máy nhiên liệu linh hoạt (flex-fuel) đầu tiên của Hero MotoCorp ở thủ đô New Delhi, Bộ trưởng Dầu khí Ấn Độ Hardeep Singh Puri cho rằng xe nhiên liệu linh hoạt là giải pháp thiết thực để giảm nhập khẩu dầu thô, thúc đẩy giao thông phát thải thấp và tăng cường sức sống cho kinh tế nông thôn.Ông Puri mô tả sự kiện ra mắt 2 mẫu xe máy nhiên liệu linh hoạt (Splendor+ và HF Deluxe Flex Fuel) là “một chương mới trong lịch sử năng lượng của Ấn Độ”, đánh dấu bước tiến của nước này vào thị trường xe nhiên liệu linh hoạt đại chúng. Các mẫu xe mới này có thể sử dụng mọi loại hỗn hợp xăng - ethanol từ E20 đến E85.Theo Bộ trưởng, Ấn Độ hiện sở hữu hơn 300 triệu xe hai bánh đang lưu hành, một trong những hệ sinh thái xe máy lớn nhất thế giới. Điều này tạo điều kiện để công nghệ nhiên liệu linh hoạt được triển khai trên quy mô lớn.“Bây giờ, tôi xin đưa ra một vài con số tính toán cơ bản. Về chiếc xe chạy bằng nhiên liệu E85 vừa ra mắt hôm nay và nếu xăng E85 được đưa vào sử dụng và được cung cấp tại các trạm bơm xăng được chỉ định, tôi có thể chia sẻ với qu‎ vị xăng E85 sẽ rẻ hơn đáng kể so với nhiên liệu thông thường. Và nếu 1% doanh số bán xe xăng hàng năm ở Ấn Độ được thay thế bằng E85, thì điều này tạo ra nhu cầu hơn 40 triệu lít ethanol. Ước tính sẽ có gần 2,6 tỷ Rupee – khoảng 30 triệu USD, được thanh toán cho các nhà máy chưng cất ethanol. Chúng ta sẽ tiết kiệm được khoảng 1,95 tỷ Rupee tiền ngoại tệ; giảm được khoảng 28.000 tấn dầu thô nhập khẩu. Lượng giảm phát thải CO2 ròng lên tới gần 86.000 tấn và gần 1,6 tỷ Rupee sẽ chảy trực tiếp vào túi người nông dân.”Ông Puri cho rằng nhiên liệu E85 có nhiều lợi thế so với các giải pháp thay thế khác, bao gồm chi phí sản xuất phương tiện thấp hơn, yêu cầu đầu tư hạ tầng thấp và tốc độ triển khai nhanh hơn đáng kể so với mạng lưới xe điện. Trong khi đó, xe điện vẫn phụ thuộc đáng kể vào chuỗi cung ứng pin và linh kiện nhập khẩu.Theo Bộ trưởng Dầu khí Ấn Độ, phương tiện sử dụng nhiên liệu sinh học linh hoạt sản xuất trong nước giúp giảm phụ thuộc vào năng lượng nhập khẩu và tạo đầu ra ổn định cho nông sản dùng làm nguyên liệu sản xuất ethanol. Ông cũng cho biết Chính phủ đang xem xét các chính sách hỗ trợ, bao gồm trợ giá nhiên liệu E85 và các ưu đãi có mục tiêu nhằm đẩy nhanh việc phổ cập công nghệ này. E85 dự kiến sẽ có giá thấp hơn đáng kể so với xăng thông thường để tạo động lực cho người tiêu dùng chuyển đổi sang phương tiện nhiên liệu linh hoạt.Cùng tham dự sự kiện, Bộ trưởng Giao thông Đường bộ và Cao tốc Nitin Gadkari nhận định Ấn Độ, với vị thế là thị trường xe hai bánh lớn nhất thế giới, có nhiều điều kiện để trở thành quốc gia đi đầu trong lĩnh vực giao thông sử dụng nhiên liệu linh hoạt. Theo ông, công nghệ này có thể giúp giảm tới 77% lượng phát thải so với nhiên liệu hóa thạch truyền thống./.Đình Nam/VOV Ấn ĐộBộ trưởng Dầu khí Ấn Độ Hardeep Singh Puri (trái) và Bộ trưởng Giao thông Đường bộ và Cao tốc Nitin Gadkari (phải) tại lễ ra mắt.

In this episode of the AI Agent & Copilot Podcast, Giuseppe Ianni, podcast host and industry interviewer, is joined for a second time by Nandita Puri, PhD Researcher at Georgia Tech working at the intersection of bioinformatics and biochemistry. The conversation explores how AI is transforming drug discovery, accelerating hypothesis generation, reducing experimental costs, improving success rates, enabling rare disease research, and paving the way for virtual cell simulation. Key Takeaways AI Is Creating a New Drug Discovery Workflow: Puri describes a major transition from traditional laboratory-first research toward a hybrid approach combining computational and experimental science. Researchers can now use AI, machine learning, and pattern recognition to analyze massive biological datasets before conducting expensive laboratory work. According to Puri, "I see a healthy combination of 50% dry lab and wet-lab validation becoming the emerging standard." This shift allows scientists to move beyond manual analysis and leverage computational intelligence to generate stronger hypotheses, identify promising targets faster, and focus laboratory resources on the most promising opportunities. Higher Success Rates Mean Lower Costs and Less Waste: One of the most immediate benefits of AI in drug discovery is improved experimental efficiency. Puri notes that individual experiments can cost "$10,000-$12,000" and historically have carried significant failure risk. By consolidating fragmented datasets and identifying meaningful biological signals, AI helps researchers prioritize stronger hypotheses before entering the laboratory. Puri explained that some AI-assisted binder-development efforts achieved "40% 50% of success rate," compared with previous rates of "10% 5%." These improvements reduce wasted resources, shorten research timelines, and allow scientific teams to evaluate more potential treatments with the same budget. AI Is Unlocking Opportunities for Rare Disease Research: Rare diseases have historically faced funding and development challenges due to limited patient populations and expensive clinical validation requirements. Puri explains that AI is helping overcome these barriers by generating synthetic datasets, identifying hidden biological relationships, and revealing common signaling pathways between diseases. She notes that "AI is really, really helping rare disease industry to go forward." Visit Cloud Wars for more.

In this episode of the AI Agent & Copilot Podcast, Giuseppe Ianni, AI Practice Lead and industry thought leader, is joined by Nandita Puri, PhD Candidate at Georgia Tech and founder of Illumia.bio. Puri discusses how AI is transforming drug discovery by creating massive therapeutic libraries, connecting fragmented biomedical knowledge, and dramatically accelerating research timelines. Their conversation explores the convergence of AI, structural biology, and life sciences. Key Takeaways AI Expands the Search Space for New Therapeutics: Traditional drug discovery focuses on identifying a single drug for a single target, but Puri argues that diseases are complex biological systems requiring broader approaches. Her team is building an AI-generated library of more than 10 billion molecules across multiple therapeutic modalities. By treating drug discovery as a combinatorics problem, researchers can explore vastly larger therapeutic possibilities. Connecting Fragmented Scientific Knowledge Accelerates Discovery: One of the biggest bottlenecks in pharmaceutical research is the fragmented nature of scientific information. Researchers often spend years reviewing hundreds of papers before forming a hypothesis. Puri describes how her team is integrating 60 to 70 public databases into a connected knowledge platform that links diseases, genes, proteins, pathways, and drug candidates. As she notes, "When we type a disease, we know exactly the gene, we exactly know the protein." This consolidation dramatically reduces research time and enables scientists to make more informed decisions earlier in the discovery process. AI Creates New Opportunities for Rare Disease Research: Rare diseases have historically been underserved because of the high costs and long timelines associated with traditional drug development. Puri says that bringing a drug to market can require "$1 billion and about 10 years." By shortening research cycles from years to months, AI lowers the barriers to investigating diseases that pharmaceutical companies may have previously avoided. This acceleration enables smaller teams to pursue treatments for conditions affecting fewer patients while increasing the likelihood that promising therapies can move forward to validation and clinical testing.

Send us Fan MailLast week we brought back Part 1 of our Ruchir Puri masterclass. This is the episode that completes it.If Part 1 was about how AI works — agentic loops, inference scaling, the death of prompt engineering — Part 2 is about where AI is going. Ruchir takes on the biggest questions in the industry: Is Jensen Huang right that AGI arrives by 2029? What does IBM's bet on open models actually mean for the enterprise? And what does it take to build AI with not just intelligence, but reasoning and judgment?His framework — AGI as IQ + EQ + RQ — is one of the clearest mental models we've heard for cutting through the noise around artificial general intelligence. The RQ, he argues, is the piece nobody's solved yet. And until they do, enterprise AI has to be built differently.This one stands alone if you're new.

On our political radar this week… Pam Bondi joins Meat Loaf, Joan Rivers, Dennis Rodman, Sinbad, Dionne Warwick, Andrew Dice Clay, Omarosa … and Kristi Noem: “You’re fired!” VIDEO: Bye Bye Bondi (A Tribute) Senator Elissa Slotkin – speaking in Iowa – confirms what we've been saying for weeks: she's open to running for President. Two more special elections this week, two more sharp turns to Democrats: –In Wisconsin, liberal candidate Chris Taylor cruised to an easy victory over her conservative opponent in the state Supreme Court race with 60 percent of the vote, expanding the liberal majority on the court to 5-2. – Georgia, Democrat Shawn Harris lost by about 12 percentage points in the race to replace Marjorie Taylor Green, but he shifted the district 25 points to the left. Trump won the district by 37 percentage points in 2024. A national Republican group said Monday it's dumping $45 million into Michigan's open U.S. Senate race as an initial investment to help presumptive GOP nominee Mike Rogers flip the seat from Democratic control. The operative word is “initial”, meaning even more millions will flow into Michigan Republican sources. Trump is calling on Congress to give Pete Hegseth a staggering $1.7-trillion dollars over the next year. To fund it, Trump wants to cut virtually every other federal program including a 23% cut for NASA even as four astronauts take a first-ever-for-humans trip to the far side of the moon. One item calling for a major increase: White House repairs and renovations. Trump wants to spend 377-million dollars on fixing up the place, an 860 percent increase. Two more major league grifts from Trump: –The Justice Department has settled for roughly $1.2 million a lawsuit from Michael Flynn, the former national security adviser to President Donald Trump who pleaded guilty during Trump’s first term to lying to the FBI about his conversations with a top Russian diplomat and was later pardoned. Bottom line: if Trump likes you, taxpayers will pay you to lie to the FBI. –Semafor is reporting that Trump has directed the State Department to send $1.25 billion – without any Congressional appropriation or authorization to do so – to Trump's Board of Peace. The transfer effectively places the money directly in the hands of Trump, the board’s chairman. Trump and the board’s executives control funding for the Board of Peace — and Trump selects the executive board — and the president will continue to do so even after his second term ends in January 2029. In the race for Governor – John James is ducking still another candidate debate, this one set for the end of the month in vote-rich Oakland County. James has seen his once overwhelming lead for the GOP gubernatorial nomination shrink as septuagenarian Perry “Quality Guru” Johnson dumps millions into an effort to spend his way into office. Governor Whitmer says she will not endorse a candidate for U.S. Senate or Secretary of State. She earlier ruled out an endorsement in the race for the gubernatorial nomination. It's pretty easy for Democrats to be critics of Donald Trump, his policies and his corruption. More important to most people is answering the question: “so what are you going to do?” State House Democrats have answered, releasing their Vision for a Brighter Michigan. We're joined by House Democratic Leader Ranjeev Puri who led development of the plan. The son of Indian immigrants, Leader Puri made history in 2020 as the first person of color to represent his Canton Michigan district and the first Sikh-American in Michigan's legislative history. In his second term he served as majority whip, making him the highest-ranking South Asian in state government nationwide. Remarkably, he is one of two first-generation Indian-Americans in top legislative leadership: Senate Majority Floor Leader Sam Singh is also the son of Indian immigrants. Leader Puri's leadership has earned national recognition, including being named to the Council of State Government's “20 Under 40” Leadership Award Class of 2023 and receiving the MIRS Legislator of the Year Award in 2024.His leadership has earned national recognition, including being named to the Council of State Government's “20 Under 40” Leadership Award Class of 2023 and receiving the MIRS Legislator of the Year Award in 2024. (Jeff) First question! A personal note from producer/co-host Walt Sorg April is Michigan Donate Life month, a recognition of the state's organ donation program. Four years ago I was the recipient of a donated kidney. It changed my life … and probably saved my life. A part of you can live on after death through the simple act of saying “yes, I want to pay it forward.” And you can go a step beyond through a living donation of a kidney, or portion of your liver. My donor was my brother and he's just as healthy today with one kidney as he was before the surgery. The Michigan Organ Donor Registry is a confidential database that documents an individual's decision to become an organ, tissue and eye donor. Joining the registry is simple and secure. Michiganders can add their name online at Michigan.gov/OrganDonation, at any Secretary of State branch office or self-service station, or on your state income tax return. And while you're at it … the donation of blood through the Red Cross is an easy way to save another life. Last spring, donated blood saved my life. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

“The Bisara of Pooree”: Set in 1891 British India, Major John Churton is riding a streak of bad luck — a robbery, the death of his horse, a rejected invention — when he becomes engaged to the woman of his dreams, Millicent Hollis. His old friend Tom Futon recognizes the source of the trouble: a small silver box called the Bissara of Puri, containing a tiny eyeless wooden fish, which Churton unknowingly purchased in a bazaar. According to legend, the Bissara brings ruin to those who buy it — but grants the heart's desire to those who steal it. When the odious Captain Pack secretly steals the box and uses its power to bewitch Millicent into accepting his marriage proposal, Churton must arrange to steal it back before he loses everything. | #RetroRadio #WeirdDarkness | EP0620CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:30.028 = CBS Radio Mystery Theater, “The Bisara of Pooree” (July 18, 1977) ***WD00:48:08.906 = X Minus One, “Protective Mimicry” (October 03, 1956)01:15:03.627 = ABC Mystery Time, “No One Will Ever Know (1956) ***WD01:39:04.515 = Strange Adventure, “Border Incident” (March 22, 1955) ***WD01:42:14.889 = BBC Radio 4 / Radio 7 Ghost Story, “The Revenant” (late 1980s) ***WD01:56:29.875 = Beyond The Green Door, “George Davis' Freak Show” (1966)02:00:27.972 = Black Book, “Different Readings, Part 1” (November 21, 1951) ***WD02:17:15.269 = Black Book, “Different Readings, Part 2” (November 21, 1951) ***WD02:25:37.134 = All Star Western Theater, “Ghost In Little Dear Canyon” (November 29, 1947) ***WD02:54:07.170 = Box 13, “Suicide or Murder” (October 31, 1948)03:20:35.465 = CBC Mystery Theater, “The Tell-Tale Heart” (October 31, 1974) ***WD03:46:24.408 = Chet Chetter's Tales From The Morgue, “It Came From Video” (1990-1992) ***WD04:14:20.171 = The Clock, “The One-Eyed Cat” (November 01, 1955)04:38:34.068 = The Crime Club, “Fish For Entree” (September 11, 1947)05:08:30.369 = Show Close(ADU) = Air Date Unknown(LQ) = Low Quality***WD = Remastered, edited, or cleaned up by Weird Darkness to make the episode more listenable.

To put on a yajña takes a lot of work—any kind of yajña—and to take it down takes a lot of work. The middle portion is often very short. Again, in a fire yajña, there's only a few spoon fulls that go in, but getting all the ingredients (especially if you have to grow them yourself) and then cleaning up afterwards is the heavy lifting. But the combustion—spiritual combustion—happens in the middle, and this is one of the five most important practices according to Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu. I feel like we had that combustion because of the hard work of Śraddhā Devī Dāsī ,team members, and Divyanāma Prabhu—working, all of them, constantly. I'm in on weekly meetings for planning, and then I hear Śraddhā with her team. I see Divyanāma Prabhu constantly planning also for his team. And this is a confluence of different teams coming together; it's just been really nice. I hear Nirākulā in the other room on meetings, and the detail that Śraddhā goes into to plan these is astounding to me, and many of you mentioned those types of things. I don't know if you could hear out there, Śraddhā, but a lot of people were appreciating that you had a motherly presence and you were attentive to every detail. Really, it's your tenacity and your very deep devotion that shows up in the way that you lean into your service completely. I couldn't be more grateful, and all of us feel that way too. So thank you very, very much for giving such sacrifice so that we can achieve this yajña that is irreplaceable in our lives, in our sojourn, in our journey back to Godhead. Thank you very much. Divyanāma Prabhu, Vṛndārikā Ramāi, and their team—they have dedicated their lives, or a good portion of them, to putting on Yātrās. And just in the way things have come together over the years, we have now three Yātrās a year. They've just evolved. But they didn't just evolve, just like the material world and all the species didn't just evolve—there's an intelligence behind it. Divyanāma and Vṛndārikā Ramāi are attached to the dhāma. They have spent a lot of time in the dhāma, and it was good fortune that they ran into Mukhāravinda in the Istanbul airport distributing books one day. Believe it or not, they were in transit, and that's—without all the details—how we met. Then one thing led to another, with a ride from their house to the airport about starting the Youth Yātrā. I had always wanted to do it; didn't know how it would ever happen, but then Kṛṣṇa sent them and they said, ‘We'll do it.' Now there's been a merging of Yātrās, and we have added on in October to the wonderful UK devotees coming together, and I get to spend time going around with that other Yātrā, and now these Yātrās are coming together. Kṛṣṇa has definitely got a plan, and we're really grateful to you and Vṛndārikā Ramāi. Thank you very much for the tireless service you do. Back at ISV years ago, we used to have Devotee Appreciation Day, and we would come together once a year, I think, to try to appreciate the devotees. Every time driving home, I would look at Nirākulā and say, ‘Why am I so exhausted?' It was really hard, because we all have this feeling—I'm hearing it from everyone—you want to try to mention everybody. It's like seeing all the preparations that were just offered to Lord Jagannātha and then thinking you can eat them all. It's impossible to glorify the devotees enough or appreciate them enough. And I always walked away feeling like, ‘Oh, I could have done more.' And that's exactly how I feel now—for all of you, that we came together to render service and create this environment. It's a miracle. It's a spiritual miracle that will be imprinted in our hearts forever.

This transcendental body is the playground for the continuous expression of variegated moods and ecstatic symptoms, that carry His consciousness to the realm where He is no longer aware of that transcendental body. By only a particle of His mercy he has delivered the three worlds. 2) I salute the Son of Mother Saci, Whose heart is in a state of rapture, transformed by feelings of intense love. In His pastime of loud roaring, before the mischievous and malicious rascals, He removes all fear of the vast ocean of material existence, by the effect of His unlimited compassion. 3) He is wearing garments the color of the eastern sky during the dawn, and His lovely cheeks shine with the same radiance. The nails of His hands and feet have the same pleasing effect of the moon, shining in the sky. His pleasure diversion consists in discussions and glorification of His own wonderful qualities and names. I offer my obeisances to the Son of Mother Saci. 4) His lotus eyes are always wet with tears. His ornaments are the new and ever fresh transformations of ecstatic love that decorate His transcendental form. His gait is slow and majestic, yet His dancing is a wonderful pastime of enjoyment. I bow down before the Son of Mother Saci. 5) The movement of His lovely, yet restless, lotus feet captivates the mind, and His ankle bracelets sweeten that charming scene all the more. His face, which defeats the beauty of the moon, is very cooling and pleasant. I offer my salutations to the Son of Mother Saci. 6) He wears a cord around His waist and carries in His hands a water pot and staff. His divine appearance is complemented by His shaved head. The sins of the wicked are annulled by the rod of chastisement that he carries. I salute the Son of Mother Saci. 7) His ornaments are the dust on His body and His radiant tilak, prepared with sandalwood. The beautiful sight of His trembling reddish lips brings delight to the mind and heart. I offer my obeisances to the Son of Mother Saci. 8) His lotus eyes defeat the color of pink lotuses. His two lotus hands are very long, reaching down almost to His knees. He appears to be a mere adolescent, dressed as He is, ready to dance. I prostrate myself before the Son of Mother Saci.

Over the past 160 episodes, two themes that have appeared repeatedly feel as relevant and urgent as ever are 1) the pros and dehumanizing cons of technology and 2) approaching suffering in the human experience. In this episode, we are excited to bring back a panel of notable past guests to discuss the interplay between medicine, suffering, technology, and the human experience. We are joined by historian Christine Rosen, PhD, philosopher Mikolaj Slawkowski-Rode, PhD, and palliative care physician Sunita Puri, MD. Rosen is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute whose work is focused on American history, society and culture, technology and culture, and feminism. Slawkowski-Rode is an assistant professor of philosophy at the University of Warsaw and research fellow at the University of Oxford with a current emphasis on the philosophy of science and religion. Dr. Puri is a palliative care physician, associate professor at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, and author of the critically acclaimed book That Good Night (2019). As a panel, we consider a prominent aspect of the unwritten curriculum of medicine: how medicine often considers suffering and sorrow to be fixable and their eradication to be a metric of medical success. We explore ways digital technology can make our lives easier without making them better, and the pressing need to define and defend the (non-digital) human experience. We propose that the goal is not to eradicate all suffering, but to reduce needless suffering without denying the forms that accompany love, growth, and moral responsibility. When suffering is treated as an intolerable defect, we can become preoccupied with self-protection and less available to one another. The first and most important gift a caregiver can give is their undivided attention and the biggest mistake we can make in medicine is turning away from suffering. Finally, we ponder if for both patients and physicians, life, in the end, is meant to be a mystery.In this episode, you'll hear about: 6:37 – Unlearning preconceived perspectives on suffering, technology, and human experience. 13:08 – Engaging with digital technology critically instead of presuming that technological progress is inherently good.19:28 – Suffering as an irradicable and sometimes necessary element of the human condition.27:50 – Helping young terminal patients grapple with their diagnosis as a palliative care doctor. 36:36 – How the pursuit of immortality can lead to moral sickness.47:08 – How digital technologies are inciting a collective disembodiment from reality.53:15 – Practices that will positively impact the modern lived experience.Explore our guests' past episodes on The Doctor's Art: Human Experience in A Digital World | Christine Rosen, PhDA Philosophy of Grief | Mikolaj Slawkowski-Rode, PhDThe Beauty of Impermanence | Sunita Puri, MDIf you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show wherever you get your podcasts.
