Summer bounties are hitting our dinner, picnic and BBQ tables, and farmers are busy gearing up for another fall harvest season. But have you ever considered how much of the food we produce in Canada never even makes it to your plate? Or how much goes into the green bin?This year on Disruptors, an RBC Podcast, we tackled the challenge of food waste in a special series called “The Growing Challenge: How Canada Can Lead the Next Green Revolution in Agriculture.” We're showing good progress on limiting food spoilage and waste, but we can – and need to do – more.Listen in as host John Stackhouse hears from a variety of experts including Meeru Dhalwala, author, chef, and the co-owner of Vij's and Rangoli restaurants in Vancouver; Randy Huffman, the Chief Food Safety and Sustainability Officer at Maple Leaf Foods; Kevin Groh, Senior Vice President of Corporate Affairs at Loblaw Companies Limited; and Jeremy Lang, the founder and Vice-President of Sustainability at Pela Earth, the creator of a smart composting system called Lomi.
Thiruppavai is chanted during Dhanur masam or month/margazhi month. "Worship of Lord Vishnu during the morning hours in Dhanurmasam is considered highly auspicious. Vishnu Sahasranama is chanted during the period. Other important mantras chanted are those dedicated to Goddess Lakshmi." You can learn more here: https://www.hindu-blog.com/2009/12/importance-of-dhanurmasa-holiness-of.html I personally believe in worshiping during early morning hours in this month. The question I ask myself every year is " How can I be self motivated to get up early in the morning?" A couple of years back the answer was "Lalitha just make one new Rangoli or kolam a day and listen to the auspicious tiruppavai and Tiruvembavai chanting." I did that. It truly raised my self esteem and helped me with a consistent flow of "feel good hormones" like Dopamine, Serotonin, Endorphins and Oxytocin, you name it ( LOL). Here is an article for you to read https://www.health.harvard.edu/mind-and-mood/feel-good-hormones-how-they-affect-your-mind-mood-and-body#:~:text=What%20are%20the%20four%20feel,your%20mood%20in%20the%20process. I could feel that I am contributing to my overall well-being, peace and prosperity. Last year when I asked the same question, the answer was "Lalitha, you just take your listeners and readers on a Virtual tour to the temple while you are watching the rituals associated with chanting Tiruppavai in the morning . That is a good deed and would be a HIME ( High Impact Minimal Effort) activity. It will impact lives world-wide. This year I asked the same question The answer is "Lalitha, learn one pasuram a day, boldly record a slow chanting of your voice and just let it go." I honored that and I just googled "Slow chanting of Tiruppavai" I got several links. I chose a video with Tamil script that struck the chords of my inspiration to learn on the spot. No judging and no paralysis by analysis. Here is the final product. Pasuram 1 of Tiruppavai. Thank you for listening and being a part of my 30 Day Tiruppavai Pasurams learning journey. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lalitha289/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lalitha289/support
It's an issue that's estimated to cost Canada more than $21 billion per year -- nevermind the environmental impacts. But how much thought have you really given to the problem of food waste and spoilage, and how it could be hampering our country's effort to reduce emissions? Whenever wasted or spoiled food ends up buried in a landfill instead of decomposing while exposed to air, it generates methane — a potent greenhouse gas with 86 times the warming power of carbon dioxide. And it just so happens that Canada is one of the worst countries on the planet when it comes to wasted food. So what can be done about it?On this episode of Disruptors, an RBC podcast, co-hosts John Stackhouse and Trinh Theresa Do wrap up their special, three-part series called “The Growing Challenge”, with an in-depth examination of how both food waste and spoilage represent a huge and often overlooked obstacle to our nation's sustainability efforts. They'll also discuss new technologies and tactics helping food producers to address the issue — as well as how we as consumers all need to change our attitudes when it comes to things like best before dates, portion sizes, and so-called “rescued food.” In addition to some familiar voices from earlier episodes in the series like Sonya Hoo, Evan Fraser, and Kristjan Hebert, John and Theresa will also hear from Meeru Dhalwala, author, chef, and the co-owner of Vij's and Rangoli restaurants in Vancouver; Randy Huffman, the Chief Food Safety and Sustainability Officer at Maple Leaf Foods; Kevin Groh, Senior Vice President of Corporate Affairs at Loblaw Companies Limited; as well as Jeremy Lang, the founder and Vice-President of Sustainability at Pela Earth, which makes a smart, countertop-based composting system called Lomi. To learn more about Meeru Dhalwala you can visit her Wikipedia page or follow her on Instagram at @meerudhalwala. Maple Leaf Foods has much more information about its sustainability goals on its website. Loblaw Companies Limited has details on its efforts to reduce waste in both the textiles and food industries.

It is the start of Diwali, the major festival of light celebrating the triumph of good over evil, knowledge over ignorance, light over dark. It is one of the most popular celebrations for Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and Buddhists. During the festival, one common decoration one might come across is rangoli. Rangoli is more than just a pretty design. It is traditionally believed to be a harbinger of luck. The tradition of creating rangoli on floors and tabletops is passed down through generations largely unchanged, but there are variations of the practice in different areas. Rangoli designs began in India, Nepal and Bangladesh. The distribution of colors has a spiritual connotation often utilizing radial symmetry and a yin yang type of even balance that is not only visually satisfying but also considered to be a symbol of luck, growth, and prosperity. Rangoli are traditionally placed at the main entrance or a courtyard as a way of extending a warm welcome to the Goddess Lakshmi The word rangoli comes from the Sanskrit word “rangavalli” for a creative expression of art by means of color. Those colors traditionally are created using colored rice, sands, flowers, or paints. Today some people incorporate other materials for embellishments such as glitter or even stickers. It is a design that is handmade and open to a lot of creative embellishments. Along with variations on the designs, there are also many names for the designs people in the west often refer to under the umbrella term “rangoli” India has many regions and many languages, so the tradition may look a little different and goes by different names such as Kolam, Mandana, Chowkpurana, Alpana, and Jhoti. Each of these is a little different springing from different regions, but generally, they are all used to mark celebrations and bring good luck. During Diwali, rangoli designs are often decorated with lit diyas making them even more stunning as they bring light and color in such beautiful balance to look upon them is a meditative experience.
Every ausoicious occassion,we decorate our house with lights,and rangoli with various parrerns .we often celebrate festivals and specially on sankranthi festival we know every indian and specially telugu people often compete in making rangoli and how big and huge it can be made.we relive everysecond performing our interest as celebration of happiness,i derrive it as vibration of happiness that is spread to eachother by this way of rangoli.Let us recollect the significance of making rangoli infront and inside house is to welcome all spirit of success happiness and prosperity.
India is a land of festivals. Holi is approaching, and Rangbharni Ekadashai marks the beginning of Holi celebrations by making Rangoli, and throwing Gulal. Holi is a gala which is celebrated with vibrancy across the whole country. Gala is a noun which means a social ocassion with special entertainment. www.chimesradio.com http://onelink.to/8uzr4g https://www.facebook.com/chimesradio/ https://www.instagram.com/vrchimesradio/ Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/chimesradioSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The festival of Dhanteras falls in the month of Kartik (Oct-Nov) on the thirteenth day of the dark fortnight. On the day of Dhanteras, business premises are renovated and decorated. Entrances are made colorful with lanterns and traditional motifs of Rangoli designs to welcome the Goddess of Wealth and Prosperity .On Dhanteras Hindus consider it auspicious to purchase gold or silver articles or at least one or two new utensils. It is believed that new "Dhan" or some form of precious metal is a sign of good luck. Dhanteras is celebrated with gusto and enthusiasm. "Lakshmi Puja" is performed in the evenings when tiny diyas of clay are lit to drive away the shadows of evil spirits. Bhajans, devotional songs in praise of Goddess Laxmi, are sung and "Naivedya" of traditional sweets is offered to the Goddess.#News18.com In association with Fever 104 | Photo: Reuters
Tihar is one of my favorite festivals to see in Nepal. Each day of the festival either an animal, a Goddess or a brother/sister relationship are honored. The biggest night, Lakshmi Puja, is the most important night of the festival when houses and businesses are cleaned, decorated with Rangoli art(flower, colored sand) and candles. Prayers are also performed in hopes that the Goddess of Wealth, Lakshmi, will pay a visit and bless your family or business with a prosperous year. While walking around the streets of Thamel and the rest of Kathmandu you'll notice many people, especially women, are dressed in their best outfits, many purchased to celebrate this special night.Thamel, the tourist section of town is one of the best places to hangout and watch the festivities. With the highest concentrations of shops, restaurants and businesses it’s one of the liveliest parts of Kathmandu during the festival with impromptu dancing, singing and traditional gatherings.India's version of the Hindu Festival of Lights, Diwali, will seem like a much more robust celebration with a multitude of fireworks lighting the sky and echoing through the streets, and elaborate light and sign displays in front of jewellry shops, especially in places like Jaipur. I enjoy both celebrations but I have an iffinity for the charm of Tihar, with the emphasis on dancing and singing in the streets and the more earthy candle lit alleys of Thamel and Kathmandu.In this episode of Far East Adventure Travel Podcast, highlights from the latest Tihar Festival in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Rangoli is the art of drawing on floors and walls with colored powders to create a welcome for Laxmi, the goddess of wealth, and to ward off the evil spirits. Although rangoli has its origins in Maharashtra, it is practiced everywhere in India today.
