In the 19th century, the Herzog family supplied wine to the Emperor, while the 20th ushered in the era and risks of Prohibition in America and the profound transformation of the humble grape juice. Contemporary technology has enabled the wine industry to flourish, yet the intricate halachos makes kosher wine production, a uniquely complex product   Meanwhile in the mid-1500s, Moravia was fertile ground for both the Maharal's views and the Rama's rulings of yayin stam, which resonate to this day.      Timestamps: 00:00 — Opening anecdote   00:00:36 — Intro & episode overview   00:01:12 — Listener feedback (medieval England)   00:02:02 — History: Bohemia & Moravia (1500s)   00:04:54 — Maharal: philosophy of wine   00:08:43 — Nicholsburg controversy (1600s)   00:15:00 — Prohibition & bootlegging (Bronfmans)   00:16:25 — Sacramental wine loophole & abuses   00:25:00 — 1926 regulations & grape juice debate   00:29:30 — Interview: Nathan (Yogi) Herzog   00:35:00 — Herzog: kosher production practices   00:40:00 — Kedem grape juice & market evolution   00:50:00 — Harvest logistics & mashgichim   00:51:54 — Production issues & quality control   00:52:02 — Interview: Rabbi Padva (kashrus expert)   00:53:15 — Halacha: non-Jew involvement, mevushal, transport   01:04:24 — Practical challenges (pumping/maceration)   01:06:06 — Closing & sign-off

“Being under the control of passion and lust, Rama's father, Maharaja Dasharatha, wanted to fulfill Kaikeyi's cherished desire, thus he did not go through with Rama's installation ceremony.” (Sita Devi speaking to Ravana, Valmiki Ramayana, Aranya Kand, 47.12)

“My husband Rama is famous throughout the world. He is pure, truthful, and very gentle. He is mighty-armed, has wide eyes, and is always busy working for the welfare of all living beings [sarva-bhuta-hite-ratah].” (Sita Devi speaking to Ravana, Valmiki Ramayana, Aranya Kand, 47.11)

Michelle Langstone reviews three new films, beginning with Emerald Fennell's much discussed adaptation of Wuthering Heights and its bold creative choices. She then explores the Māori gothic horror Mārama, highlighting its themes of colonial violence, spiritual lineage, and striking cinematography. Finally, she delves into If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, a dark portrait of a mother on the edge that blends sensory overload, surreal escapes, and a standout performance from Rose Byrne.Watch the trailers here:Wuthering HeightsMāramaIf I Had Legs I'd Kick YouGo to this episode on rnz.co.nz for more details

En este episodio, Juan Manuel Torreblanca conversa con Sixto Paz Wells sobre 52 años de contacto y los métodos para sostener una experiencia verificable: vencer el temor, fortalecer la voluntad y entrenar la mente mediante respiración, relajación, concentración y meditación para estimular la glándula pineal y afinar la telepatía. Se revisan casos de encuentros con prensa, la experiencia del cendra como portal dimensional y un avistamiento en Aguascalientes descrito como esferas metálicas tipo mercurio. El diálogo conecta el contactismo con la liberación de información y el encubrimiento institucional, tocando filtraciones, audiencias públicas y la tensión entre ciencia, presupuesto y narrativa, además de referencias a hallazgos arqueológicos como Göbekli Tepe y a ciclos cósmicos vinculados a cambios planetarios. Finalmente, Sixto enmarca los fenómenos paranormales como facultades humanas entrenables (clarividencia, psicometría, precognición, sueños lúcidos) y reflexiona sobre ética, coherencia personal y el riesgo de la desinformación en redes.Juan Manuel Torreblanca sits down with Sixto Paz Wells to explore 52 years of claimed contact and the practical framework behind it: consistent self-control practices, structured meditation, and intentional coordination rather than random skywatching. They revisit press-attended encounters, the cendra described as a dimensional portal, and an Aguascalientes case featuring shifting metallic spheres that behaved like liquid mercury. The conversation expands into 2026-era disclosure dynamics, discussing information release, institutional reluctance, and the social impact of leaks, media coverage, and public hearings around UAP/UFO narratives. Sixto also outlines a model of psi development in a seven-dimensional material universe, emphasizing telepathy, clairvoyance, psychometry, precognition, and lucid dreams as skills that can be cultivated, while warning about misinformation, cult-like distortions, and the importance of personal coherence and ethics.Nesta conversa, Juan Manuel Torreblanca entrevista Sixto Paz Wells sobre 52 anos de contato e o método por trás de experiências consideradas verificáveis: superar o medo, fortalecer a vontade e manter práticas de respiração, relaxamento, concentração e meditação para estimular a glândula pineal e ampliar a telepatia. Eles revisitam encontros com presença de imprensa, a cendra descrita como um portal dimensional e um caso em Aguascalientes no qual objetos se comportaram como esferas metálicas de mercúrio que se juntavam e se separavam. O tema se expande para a liberação de informação e disputas de narrativa sobre OVNIs/UAP, incluindo vazamentos, cobertura midiática e resistência institucional. Sixto ainda apresenta um panorama de desenvolvimento psíquico com clarividência, psicometria, precognição e sonhos lúcidos, reforçando a importância de ética, coerência pessoal e discernimento diante de desinformação e distorções em grupos e redes.CHAPTERS / TIMESTAMPS00:10 Aviso de contenido sensible00:29 Presentación de Sixto Paz y el tema del contacto01:20 52 años de contacto y encuentros con prensa03:31 Avistamiento en Aguascalientes: esferas metálicas tipo mercurio05:58 Cómo prepararse para el contacto: vencer el miedo y disciplina de meditación08:11 Liberación de información, “quinta columna” y contexto social09:12 Reinserción y filtraciones: información oficial, medios y encubrimiento19:51 NASA, material clasificado y la controversia del alunizaje20:49 Extracto 2009: desinformación, miedo y verificación personal27:01 Intervención “adecuada a la época” y el contacto como experiencia colectiva29:41 Fenómenos paranormales: facultades psíquicas, glándulas y entrenamiento33:41 ¿Existen “fantasmas” y seres de luz en otros mundos?35:34 Dinámica de palabras: ovni, humanidad, esperanza, Epstein, Jesús36:31 Redes y proyectos de Sixto Paz; “martes ufológicos”40:14 Caso Asturias y disolución de Rama como organización43:48 Coherencia personal, familia y ética del mensaje46:12 Próxima visita a España y salida en Almería46:19 Cierre del episodio Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Friday Juma KhutbaFebruary 13th, 2026- We are five days away from the blessed month of Ramaḍān and a slight adjustment to the ṣalāt timings will take effect from the start of the month.- The old timetable, revised in the 1990s in consultation with scholars in Toronto, used astronomical twilight for fajr, but its characteristics were closer to false dawn (al-fajr al-kāzib).- With the availability of Shī‘a-based programs from the LEWA Institute in Qum and the Institute of Geophysics at the University of Tehran, a more refined criterion is now possible.- Based on long-term observation, the LEWA Institute's standard is preferred because it aligns with what an average person can discern naturally, in line with sharī‘ah principles.- The Open Fajr Project in Birmingham used 360-degree cameras and over 25,000 images to develop an observation-based fajr timetable accepted by both Shī‘a and Sunni mosques.- For now, out of iḥtiyāṭ, LEWA's fajr time has been adopted for ṣalāt, with imsāk set five minutes earlier to ensure proper fasting.- This adjustment was shared and discussed with scholars of the GTA and reflected in the JCC Ramaḍān guide.- Moving from astronomical fajr to the eschatological fajr, the current global political disorder reflects a world where power operates without moral constraint.- In such times, believers long for the reappearance of Imām al-Mahdi (a) to establish justice and end tyranny, supported by the return of Prophet ‘Īsā (Jesus), who will pray behind him.- The du‘ā from Imām al-Mahdi (a) is divided into a general section and supplications for fifteen segments of society.- After discussing the preamble and themes related to the tongue, heart, belly, and hands, the focus shifted to lowering the gaze.- The misuse of the eyes is a breach of trust, especially in an age of technology where immorality is easily accessible.- The Qur'ānic command in Sūrat al-Nūr (24:30–31) first instructs believing men, then believing women, to lower their gaze and guard their modesty.- Despite scientific advancement, moral decline in gender relations is evident in Western societies, seen in movements like #MeToo and scandals such as the Jeffrey Epstein case.- A ḥadīth qudsī reminds that Allāh has given humans natural restraints—eyelids and lips—to help control the eyes, tongue, and desires from falling into ḥarām.Donate towards our programs today: https://jaffari.org/donate/Jaffari Community Centre (JCC Live)

It is so comforting to know that no matter what situation we are going through, help is always possible. There is nothing beyond Hashem, and salvation can always come in the blink of an eye. Sometimes what is needed is deeper, more heartfelt prayer. Sometimes what is needed is a heroic act. And sometimes it is a combination of both. We do not know what else we need to do to be zocheh to the yeshuah we are waiting for, but Hashem knows. And we are able to ask Him to please place before us the opportunity to do the deed that will merit us the salvation we are hoping for. We can also ask Hashem to help us recognize that opportunity when it comes, and to give us the strength to rise to it. Everything is possible. Even the hope and belief we place in Hashem is, in itself, a great zechut. Rabbi Yitzchak Zilberstein related the following story, as it was told to him by the person to whom it happened. A man we will call Yosef shared that his daughter got married two years ago, at the beginning of the month of Nisan. The Shabbat Sheva Berachot was scheduled to take place in a hall in Kiryat Sefer. There were ninety people attending, which meant extensive planning for meals and sleeping arrangements. Finally, Shabbat arrived. While the tables were still being set, the generator suddenly failed and the entire hall went dark. Aside from a few candles, there was complete darkness. The hot plates warming the food shut off, and the refrigerators storing the upcoming meals also stopped working. The men were praying in total darkness, and the person in charge of the hall was running around desperately trying to find a solution. He attempted to locate a non-Jew, relying on a leniency brought in the Rama in cases of great need, but he was unable to find anyone. People nearby arranged for the food to be transferred to functioning refrigerators and hot plates, while everyone worked on strengthening their emunah and accepting that this too was for the best. Suddenly, a young man approached Yosef with an idea. He explained that he lived in the building across from the hall and had a large, beautiful living room with an attached yard. He happily offered to host all ninety guests in his home. Yosef hesitated. "It's only a few days before Pesach," he said. "Your house is surely already cleaned. How can you host ninety men, women, and little children? We would need to bring over all the tables and chairs and set everything up. Your furniture would have to be moved. Things could get damaged. Children will be running around eating chametz. And your own family is about to eat their Shabbat meal. We would be disturbing you tremendously." But the man, like an angel, pleaded again and again. Yosef was still reluctant, until the man finally said, "If you come, our joy will be even greater than yours." Seeing that there was no other viable option, Yosef agreed. Very quickly, everyone pitched in and transferred everything from the hall to the man's home. What followed was an extraordinary evening, far more beautiful than it would have been in the hall. The baal habayit was unbelievably gracious. He moved his own family elsewhere to eat and gave the wedding party full use of his home. Only once during the meal did he come in, and the guests seized the opportunity to thank him and ask how they could ever repay such an incredible kindness. He answered that he had a daughter who was still waiting for a shidduch, and he asked everyone to please give her a berachah that she should find her zivug soon. The entire crowd responded with a heartfelt berachah, filled with deep gratitude. Just a few weeks later, the man called Yosef with wonderful news. His daughter had gotten engaged. The day after the Sheva Berachot, they had received a positive response from a shidduch they were hoping for, and Baruch Hashem, it worked out. They later discovered that the young man had many offers, but when he heard about how this family had taken in ninety guests for a Sheva Berachot just days before Pesach, he chose to say yes. This man performed a heroic act by opening his already Pesach-cleaned home to so many people. That act became the catalyst for the yeshuah he had been longing for, his daughter's engagement. Hashem can always bring salvation. Our role is to pray, to seek out zechuyot, and to ask Hashem to give us the opportunities we need to get them

The president of the Qatar Science and Technology Park (QSTP), discusses her unique vision for innovation in the Arab world, emphasizing the crucial need to tie technological advancement to our roots, culture, heritage, and fundamental needs. Rama Chakaki shares insights from her career, which is defined by bridging the gap between impact and financial return, and explains QSTP's role as a platform for global innovation, nurturing deep-tech companies in sectors like AI, robotics, and biotech, with a focus on impact. The discussion delves into the pervasive "brain drain" phenomenon, with Chakaki observing a "reverse brain drain" as Arabs return to Doha and the region due to safety, resource availability, and a culture of belonging. She champions a bottom-up approach to innovation and addresses common misconceptions about Arab women in tech, highlighting their high representation in tech degrees and leadership roles. Finally, Chakaki challenges the Silicon Valley "unicorn" model, advocating for a community-built "elephant" model that prioritizes the double or triple bottom line—caring for people, the environment, and financial returns.Explore Qatar Science and Technology Park

Génesis 50:2"Después mandó José a los médicos que estaban a su servicio que embalsamaran[a] a su padre, y los médicos embalsamaron a Israel”.La mayoría de nosotros quedamos sorprendidos cuando supimos que los médicos del antiguo Egipto realizaban cirugías de cerebro. Incluso lo más sorprendente es que el cráneo de sus pacientes mostraban cicatrización: ellos realizaban cirugías muy complicadas sin matar a sus pacientes. El hecho que los médicos tuvieran el conocimiento para hacer operaciones tan delicadas hace miles de años atrás desafía el punto de vista evolucionista contemporáneo de que los humanos iniciaron como seres primitivos.¿De dónde vino este conocimiento? ¿Cómo aprendió el hombre que si aliviaba la presión del líquido en el cerebro herido lo prevenía de más daños y promovía la curación? Obviamente, de acuerdo al punto de vista moderno, el primer presunto cirujano en intentar la neurocirugía no tenía idea de lo que hacía. Sin embargo, la historia pinta un retrato muy diferente. Recientemente, los arqueólogos en la China central occidental descubrieron un cráneo de alguien al que se le realizó una cirugía del cerebro hace más de 4000 años atrás. Un gran hoyo en el centro de una serie de fisuras se le había hecho cuando se raspó a través del hueso. El cráneo muestra que se produjo cicatrización luego de la cirugía, lo que indica un grado de éxito. Hay ejemplos exitosos aún más antiguos de cirugías del cerebro que también se han encontrado en Europa oriental. El fechaje creacionista pondría estos ejemplos dentro de varios siglos después del diluvio.Que el conocimiento y la habilidad de realizar cirugías del cerebro exitosas fuesen tan extendidos hace tanto tiempo sugiere que el hombre tenía este tipo de conocimiento y habilidad aún antes del diluvio. ¡Noé incluso pudo haber transmitido este conocimiento el mismo que fue transmitido él desde el mismo Adán!Oración: Gracias, Señor, por las bendiciones del conocimiento médico.

« Pour ceux qui aspirent à la plus haute félicité, le Yoga Vasistha est pareil au nectar. C'est un puits de sagesse.  » Swami Venkatesananda.A ceux qui désirent connaître le sens de la vie, on prescrit depuis la nuit des temps la lecture et l'étude des Ecritures. En se fondant sur de telles sources, ils ne sont jamais induits en erreur. Le Yoga Vasishtha décortique la conscience, notre perception du monde, sa dissolution ultime, la libération de l'âme et la création de l'univers, du point de vue du sage libéré. Parmi les grands monuments fondateurs de la pensée hindoue, il est une référence incontestée en matière d'Advaita Vedanta.Abondamment citée par les grands maîtres, cette oeuvre intemporelle fait partie de ces textes radicaux qui vont droit à l'essentiel, bousculent et répondent à toutes les questions. Attribué à Valmiki, voleur devenu sage, également auteur du Ramayana, le Yoga Vasishtha présente l'enseignement du saint Vasishtha à son élève, le prince Rama, alors en proie au doute et au découragement.Ses trente-deux mille versets dispensent la connaissance ultime, depuis la création du monde jusqu'à la transcendance absolue qu'est notre identité véritable. Ses multiples éclaircissements, ses contes révélateurs regorgeant d'analogies et ses répétitions nécessaires, tant l'ego et le mental sont retors, font de l'enseignement de Vasishtha un guide fiable.Il apaise immanquablement et le tourbillon des pensées ralentit pour laisser poindre peu à peu la quiétude. Disciple proche du grand maître de Yoga et de Vedanta, Swami Sivananda [1887-1963] de la Divine Life Society de Rishikesh, Swami Venkatesananda [1921-1982] nous offre ici la quintessence absolue du Yoga Vasishtha.Parue en anglais il y a bien longtemps, sa traduction est la version de référence. L'essentiel, autant que l'essence des trente-deux mille versets de l'oeuvre originale, s'y retrouve, inaltéré, dans toute sa pureté et sa puissance salvatrice.Quatrième section du Yoga Vasistha traitant de l'existence. Bibliographie: Le Yoga Vasistha par Swami Venkatesananda, traduction de Patrice Repusseau, éditions Inner Quest (https://www.babelio.com/livres/Venkat...) Musique: Scott Lawlor (https://scottlawlor.bandcamp.com/album/of-awareness-of-presence) Narration et réalisation: Bruno Léger Production:  Les mécènes du Vieux Sage Que règnent la paix et l'amour parmi tous les êtres de l'univers.  OM Shanti, Shanti, Shanti.

What happens to “us” when we're no longer the smartest beings on the planet?In our brand new episode, technologist and global innovation leader Akshay Chopra discusses his debut novel After Us, exploring a world transformed by SUI, a self-aware, benevolent superintelligence that questions the very definition of life and humanity.Tara and Akshay dive deep into the fascinating (and often terrifying) intersections of science and fiction, from the "Longevity Escape Velocity" that could grant us 400-year lifespans to why humans may never truly understand an AI's motives, and how Akshay conceived SUI not as an invention, but as a fallible, evolving being.The conversation goes on to explore why science fiction remains largely untapped in India, despite its wealth of technologists and storytellers, and how our fear of AI may stem from humanity's own history of driving other species to extinction. Akshay also shares his journey of publishing his novel through Jaico and his shift from a "pretentious" writing style to a simplified narrative. By stripping away the jargon, he makes the looming reality of our future impossible to ignore.If the AI takeover keeps you up at night, this episode is just for you!Books, Movies, and TV shows mentioned in the episode:Frankenstein by Mary ShelleyBlack Mirror (2011)Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind by Yuval Noah HarariHer (2013)Star Trek (2009)Children of Time by Adrian TchaikovskyThe Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin SharmaAutobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa YoganandaRubaiyat of Omar Khayyam by Omar KhayyamA Sound of Thunder by Ray BradburyChildhood's End by Arthur C.

Air Week: January 26-February 1, 2026 George Goldner, Pt. 3 – Gone & End Records It’s part 3 of our 3 part series on record man, George Goldner. He is said to have had the “golden ear” for hit records and songwriter Jerry Leiber even complimented his talent for picking hit songs by saying that Goldner had, “the musical taste of a fourteen-year-old-girl.” Born to Jewish immigrants in 1919, Goldner’s first love was Latino dance music and he began his career by opening night clubs and starting Tico Records, a Latino label in 1948. By 1953, he was interested in Rhythm & Blues and began releasing records under the Rama subsidiary. In early 1954, he set up Gee Records and scored a huge hit in early ’56 with The Teenagers, “Why Do Fools Fall In Love.” By mid-’57, due to his gambling debts, Goldner sold Tico, Rama and Gee to alleged mobster Morris Levy. This week, we will take a close look at Goldner’s last R&B labels that he would run independently: Gone & End Records. Both new labels did well with Gone scoring hits with NY vocal group, the Dubs and Goldner-arranged instrumental “7-11 (Mambo No. 5)” by the Gone All Stars featuring Buddy Lucas on tenor sax. End soon followed with million-sellers from The Chantels, The Imperials and The Flamingos. Both labels proved that Goldner still had the magic ear for picking the music teenagers wanted to hear and buy, but eventually both labels would face the same fate as Goldner’s early record companies. You’ll get the full story of Gone and End Records and the finale of George Goldner on this week’s “Juke In The Back.” LISTEN BELOW

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. This brings us to a look at some of Arthur C. Clarke's other stories, A Time Odyssey (1951), Tales From the White Hart (1957), The Nine Billion Names of God (1954), The Star (1955), Dolphin Island (1964), and A Meeting With Medusa (1971. These stories will wrap up our look at Clarke's Science Fiction and we have seen a lot of good stuff here. And as a final note, we cover CLarke's Three Laws. Arthur C. Clarke: Other Works, A Time Odyssey A collaboration between two of science fiction's best authors: what could possibly go wrong? Well, something went wrong. This series is not bad, but I hesitate to describe it as good. This series was described by Clarke as neither a prequel nor a sequel, but an “orthoquel”, a name coined from “orthogonal”, which means something roughly like “at right angles”, though it is also used in statistics to denote events that are independent and do not influence each other. And in relativity theory Time is orthogonal to Space. And in multi-dimensional geometry we can talk about axes in each dimension as orthogonal to all of the others. It is something I can't picture, being pretty much limited to three dimensions, but it can be described mathematically. It is sort of like the 2001 series, but not really. It has globes instead of monoliths. And the spheres have a circumference and volume that is related to their radius not by the usual pi, but by exactly three. Just what this means I am not sure, other than they are not sphere's in any usual sense of the word. In this story these spheres seem to be gathering people from various eras and bringing them to some other planet which gets christened “Mir”, though not in any way to the Russian Space Station. It is a Russian word that can mean “peace”, “world”, or “village”. I have seen it used a lot to refer to a village in my studies of Russian history. Anyway, the inhabitants include two hominids, a mother and daughter, a group of British Redcoats, Mongols from the Genghis Khan era, a UN Peacekeeper helicopter, a Russian space capsule, an unknown Rudyard Kipling, the army of Alexander The Great… Well at least they have lots of characters to throw around. They end up taking sides and fighting each other. In the end several of the people are returned to Earth in their own time. But the joke is on them. The beings behind the spheres are call themselves The Firstborn because they were the first to achieve sentience. They figure that best way for them to remain safe is to wipe out any other race that achieves sentience, making them to polar opposite of the beings behind the monoliths in 2001, for whom the mind is sacred. Anyway, the Firstborn have arranged for a massive solar flare that will wipe out all life on Earth and completely sterilize the planet, but conveniently it will happen in 5 years, leaving time for plot development. Of course the people of Earth will try to protect themselves. Then in the third book of the series an ominous object enters the solar system. This is of course a callback to the Rama object. It is like they wanted to take everything from the Rama series and twist it. While I love a lot of Clarke's work and some of Baxter's as well, I think this is eminently skippable. The two of them also collaborated on the final White Hart story, which isn't bad Other Works Tales from the White Hart This collection of short stories has a unity of the setting, a pub called White Hart, where a character tells outrageous stories. Other characters are thinly disguised science fiction authors, including Clarke himself. Clarke mentions that he was inspired to do this by the Jorkens stories of Lord Dunsany, which are also outrageous tall tales, but lacking the science fictions aspects of Clarke's stories. Of course this type of story has a long history, in which we would do well to mention the stories of Baron Munchausen, and of course the stories of L. Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt as found in Tales from Gavagan's Bar. And Spider Robinson would take this basic idea and turn it into a series of books about Callahan's Place. Stories of this type are at least as much Fantasy as anything, but quite enjoyable, and I think I can recommend all of these as worth the time to while away a cold winter's evening while sitting by a warm fire with a beverage of choice. The Nine Billion Names of God This short story won a retrospective Hugo in 2004 as being the best short story of 1954. The idea is that a group of Tibetan monks believe that the purpose of the universe is to identify the nine billion names of God, and once that has been done the universe will no longer have a purpose and will cease to exist. They have been identifying candidates and writing them down, but the work is very slow, so they decide that maybe with a little automation they can speed it up. So they get a computer (and in 1954, you should be picturing a room-sized mainframe), and then hire some Western programmers to develop the program to do this. The programmers don't believe the monks are on to anything here, but a paycheck is a paycheck. They finish the program and start it running, but decide they don't want to be there when the monks discover their theory doesn't work, so they take off early without telling anyone, and head down the mountain. But on the way, they see the stars go out, one by one. The Star This classic short story won the Hugo for Best Short Story in 1956. The story opens with the return of an interstellar expedition that has been studying a system where the star went nova millennia ago. But the expedition's astrophysicist, a Jesuit Priest, seems to be in a crisis of faith. And if you think it implausible that a Jesuit Priest could also be an astrophysicist, I would suggest you look into the case of the Belgian priest Georges Lemaître, who first developed the theory of the Big Bang. Anyway, in the story, they learn that this system had a planet much like Earth, and it had intelligent beings much like Earth, who were peaceful, but in a tragic turn of events they knew that their star was going to explode, but they had no capability of interstellar travel. So they created a repository on the outermost planet of the system that would survive the explosion, and left records of their civilization. And when the Jesuit astrophysicist calculated the time of the explosion and the travel time for light, he is shaken: “[O]h God, there were so many stars you could have used. What was the need to give these people to the fire, that the symbol of their passing might shine above Bethlehem?” Dolphin Island This is a good Young Adult novel about the People of the Sea, who are dolphins. They save a young boy who had stowed away on a hovership that subsequently had crashed, and because no one knew about him he was left among the wreckage when the crew takes off in the life boats. And from here it is the typical Bildungsroman you find in most Young Adult novels. The dolphins bring him to an island, where he becomes involved with a research community led by a professor who is trying to communicate with dolphins. He learns various skills there, survives dangers, and in the end has to risk his life to save the people on the island. If you have a 13 year old in your house, this is worth looking for. A Meeting With Medusa This won the 1972 Nebula Award for Best Novella. It concerns one Howard Falcon, who early in the story has an accident involving a helium-filled airship, is badly injured, and requires time and prosthetics to heal. But then he promotes an expedition to Jupiter that uses similar technology, a Hot-Hydrogen balloon-supported aircraft. This is to explore the upper reaches of Jupiter's atmosphere, which is the only feasible way to explore given the intense gravity of this giant planet. Attempting to land on the solid surface would mean being crushed by the gravity and air pressure, so that is not possible. The expedition finds there is life in the upper clouds of Jupiter. Some of it is microscopic, like a kind of “air plankton” which is bio-luminescent. But there are large creatures as well, one of which is like jellyfish, but about a mile across. This is the Medusa of the title. Another is Manta-like creature, about 100 yards across, that preys on the Medusa. But when the Medusa starts to take an interest on Falcon's craft, he decides to get out quick for safety's sake. And we learn that because of the various prosthetics implanted after the airship accident Falcon is really a cyborg with much faster reactions than ordinary humans. As we have discussed previously, Clarke loved the sea, and in this novella he is using what he knows in that realm to imagine a plausible ecology in the atmosphere of Jupiter. Of course when he wrote this novella no one knew about the truly frightening level of radiation around Jupiter, but then a clever science fiction writer could come up with a way to work around that. Clarke's Three Laws Finally, no discussion of Arthur C. Clarke can omit his famous Three Laws. Asimov had his Three Laws of Robotics, and Clarke had his Three Laws of Technology. When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong. The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. This concludes our look at Arthur C. Clarke, the second of the Big Three of the Golden Age of Science Fiction. And that means we are ready to tackle the Dean of Science Fiction, Robert A. Heinlein.

Rendezvous with Rama by Arthur C. Clarke is pure, distilled classic science fiction — wide-eyed wonder, cool-headed astronauts, and mysteries big enough to swallow a planet. This one looms large in both Tom and Tony's memories as the benchmark for hard sci-fi done right.A giant alien cylinder drifts into our solar system. Humanity pokes its nose inside. What we find is both awe-inspiring and maddeningly enigmatic. Clarke gives us a story that stops short of first contact… and somehow that makes it even better.And are there parallels to the imaginings of Clarke and the reality of 3I/Atlas, the interstellar visiter even now approaching the Earth IRL?

A simple reading of Prabhupāda's books brings us into the presence of Prabhupāda. It nourishes us, it maintains us, and it becomes an industry unto itself—that is, people come from all parts of the world just to hear because the experience is unique; just hearing Prabhupāda's voice, reading his books straight through. Oftentimes people think, 'I've already done that. I know what Prabhupāda says.' He says: "sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja," as Rādhikā Ramaṇa Prabhu pointed out one time. Prabhupāda wanted to make sure that in every purport, everyone got the full meal, just in case they only read one purport in their life. But there's something else about Prabhupāda's books which is understandable only when we go into them very deeply, and that is that they're as deep as the ocean. Every time we read, we realize that assimilating what Prabhupāda has given would require a Herculean effort. Another thought along those lines is that Prabhupāda gave a Herculean effort to write the books. It's legendary that he wrote whenever he could, and he said, 'Drops of water wear the stone away.' He sacrificed his sleep in order to translate and commentate during the night time. I thought once while reading that I cannot write like Prabhupāda wrote; I never will. However, at least I can try to put in the same effort reading Prabhupāda's books that he put into writing them. What if I tried to catch up on that level? Since Prabhupāda already said, 'You must also read my books,' it means the potency is there, and that goes for everyone. Assimilating what's in Prabhupāda's books is only realizable for those who try to read all of the books, because once you do, you see that upon completing the Bhāgavatam, you'll realize, 'Oh, I was only able to take away a fraction of this.' So, I'm eager to express enthusiasm that everyone who would like to may make it a lifetime endeavor to read all of Prabhupāda's books. Read them with your friends, read them with your family, and if you get consistent, it's amazing how you'll find that you go through each book miraculously. And what I mean by that is...(14:36) ------------------------------------------------------------ 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #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

Air Week: January 19-25, 2026 George Goldner, Pt. 2 – Gee Records It’s part 2 of our 3 part series on record man, George Goldner. He is said to have had the “golden ear” for hit records and songwriter Jerry Leiber even complimented his talent for picking hit songs by saying that Goldner had, “the musical taste of a fourteen-year-old-girl.” Born to Jewish immigrants in 1919, Goldner’s first love was Latino dance music and he began his career by opening night clubs and starting Tico Records, a Latino label in 1948. By 1953, he was interested in Rhythm & Blues and began releasing records under the Rama subsidiary. We featured Rama Records in part 1. This week, the “Juke In The Back” with Matt The Cat will take a close look at Goldner’s second R&B label, Gee Records. It’s been said that the label was named after the huge success of The Crows single, “Gee” on Rama Records, but it’s more likely that he named the Gee label after himself. Gee was very vocal group focused and we’ll hear seldom-played classic records from The Coins, The Five Crowns, The Valtones, The Debonaires and The Quintones. Goldner scored the biggest and most influential hit of his entire career on Gee with “Why Do Fools Fall In Love” by The Teenagers featuring 14 year old Frankie Lymon. The late, great Herbie Cox of The Cleftones was in Goldner’s office when the Teenagers auditioned as The Premiers and we’ll hear Herbie recall that story as well as how the Cleftones came to sign with Goldner. Next week, we’ll close the series with a spotlight on Gone and End Records, Goldner’s last 2 labels under his stewardship. LISTEN BELOW

In Episode 149, astrologers Kristina Martin and Tara Redfield kick off 2026 by analyzing the compelling synastry of New York's youngest mayor, Zohran Mamdani, and his artist wife, Rama Duwaji.   The reading begins with Zohran Mamdani's birth chart, revealing an expressive Leo Rising that showcases his theatrical public persona. However, this placement is tempered by a sobering Saturn opposition, suggesting his natural confidence is earned through struggle and extra hard work. His chart further reveals a potent Mars in Scorpio, creating dynamic tension as it squares both his Ascendant and Saturn—a configuration that explains his social media savvy and his powerful appeal to fringe groups.   Next, the analysis turns to Rama Duwaji's chart, drawing fascinating astrological parallels to Princess Diana, including a sensitive Cancer Sun and a revolutionary Jupiter in Aquarius. Her chart also reveals a Mars square, indicating she is a fighter who uses her Libra Mars to wield art as her weapon of choice, complemented by a glamorous Venus in Leo that bestows a captivating, un-ignorable beauty.   When their charts are combined, powerful compatibility is revealed: mutually positive Sun and Jupiter connections amplify and uplift their personal growth. A profound Sun-Chiron conjunction indicates major healing potential within the relationship, while a coveted Mars-Venus square points to a charged, magnetic attraction. However, the couple must navigate challenging square Moons, which can trigger insensitivity, stubbornness, and difficult domestic cohesion, alongside a transformative Pluto square Moon and a chaotic Uranus opposing the Sun. The pivotal question becomes whether this undermining energy can be successfully discharged through other harmonious aspects in their charts. Tune in to hear the detailed Venus compatibility score we award this newly exalted and politically influential power couple.   Book a Reading with us!

Air Week: January 12-18, 2026 George Goldner, Pt. 1 – Rama Records We begin a multi-part series on record man, George Goldner. He is said to have had the “golden ear” for hit records and songwriter Jerry Leiber even complimented his talent for picking hit songs by saying that Goldner had, “the musical taste of a fourteen-year-old-girl.” Born to Jewish immigrants in 1919, Goldner’s first love was Latino dance music and he began his career by opening night clubs and starting Tico Records, a Latino label in 1948. By 1953, he was interested in Rhythm & Blues and began releasing records under the Rama subsidiary. This week, we’ll take a close look at Goldner’s first R&B label, which helped put Rock n’ Roll on the musical map with the 1953 smash, “Gee,” by New York vocal group, The Crows. “Gee” crossed over to a very respectable #14 on the pop chart and just might be the first Rock n’ Roll hit by a Rock n’ Roll group. From there, Goldner signed The Wrens, The Valentines, The Joytones, The Heartbeats, The Harptones and other NY groups that are now considered vocal group royalty. His house band was led by the tenor great, Jimmy Wright, who put his sax stamp on all these classic records for Goldner’s various labels. Next week in part 2, Matt The Cat will focus on Gee Records as we continue our look into the ground-breaking labels of George Goldner.  LISTEN BELOW
