In this episode I am joined by Stuart Camps, a 30 year devotee of the American spiritual teacher Adi Da, long time curator of Adi Da's zoo, the “Fear No More Zoo”, and author of “Lightning Thunder Cows”, a memoir of Stuart's life with his guru. Stuart recalls his upbringing in Papa New Guinea, his later struggles to reintegrate into Australian society, and his lifelong connection with animals. Stuart describes his approach to Adi Da and their first meeting, how he became a devotee and zoo keeper, and details his master's teachings about animals and natural contemplation. Stuart shares many anecdotes of his personal interactions with Adi Da, reflects on the teacher's controversial behaviours and claims, and considers whether Adi Da was trapped by his own spiritual community. … Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 01:00 - 30 years with Adi Da 04:16 - Lightning Thunder Cows 05:56 - Natural contemplation 07:31 - Are animals inferior to humans 11:15 - Childhood in Papa New Guinea 12:53 - Explaining Adi Da's use of the term “non-humans” 13:47 - Life in Papa New Guinea 15:36 - Childhood mystical experiences 17:45 - Reading habit 18:49 - Difficulties adjusting to Australian life 20:45 - Connection with animals 22:43 - The Eating Gorilla Comes In Peace 25:35 - Approaching Adi Da 26:56 - Trying to escape 31:47 - The need to grow up 35:25 - “Come to me when you're already happy” 38:44 - Preparing to work with Adi Da 42:39 - Powerful first meeting with Adi Da 48:58 - Stuart's unique relationship with Adi Da 53:04 - Adi Da on animals 58:27 - Direct relationship rather than religion 58:55 - Stuart's evolving understanding of Adi Da and his controversial behaviour 01:04:31 - Adi Da's sannyasin period 01:07:40 - What was it like to be around Adi Da? 01:08:24 - Reflecting on Adi Da's claims to superlative spiritual realisation 01:12:03 - Why did Adi Da incarnate? 01:16:02 - More of Adi Da on animals 01:21:18 - Adi Da's roar when a camel died 01:25:48 - Human congestion and thought 01:30:14 - Energetic conductivity and premodern peoples 01:35:27 - The role of spiritual practitioners 01:37:06 - Australian aborigines 01:40:08 - What it takes to be in relationship with a guru like Adi Da 01:49:59 - Problems with the community 01:50:45 - Was Adi Da trapped by his own community? 01:53:10 - Adi Da's sacred theatre activities 01:56:30 - Why Stuart left Adidam 01:57:56 - Adi Da's death 02:02:40 - Life after Adidam 02:06:54 - Sadness at how Adi Da is perceived in the world 02:08:23 - Exhortation to consider Adi Da's teachings … To find our more about Stuart Camps, visit: - https://fearnomore.vision/ - https://www.amazon.com/stores/Stuart-Camps/author/B0CKQ9PFVJ?

Quick test: how do you deal with your neediness? If you just cringed, you found your enemy emotion. (Want a taste of what Front Row Dads is actually like? Come sit in on a live Brotherhood Experience. It's 60 minutes on Zoom with Jon and a few other dads, free, and it's the easiest way to find out whether a room like this is for you. You don't have to share, and you don't have to prepare. Dates and sign up at frontrowdads.com/experience) Psychiatrist Dr. Laura Dabney has spent her career working with successful men who buried three feelings so deep they stopped recognizing them: neediness, anger, and sadness. In this Deep Cut from the vault (recorded in 2019), she maps what each one turns into when it goes underground: neediness becomes compulsive giving, sadness becomes relentless positivity and joking, and anger becomes the blowup you swore you'd never have. Jon goes first: the punched wall, the need for validation he'd been dressing up as contribution, the positivity that was really sadness-avoidance. Then Dabney lays out the way back: accept the feeling, catch yourself invalidating it, journal with a purpose, and start with you before you manage everyone else's reaction. It ends with the story of a patient who couldn't ask a woman on a date and now sends her postcards of his four kids. IN THIS EPISODE: The cringe test for finding your enemy emotion What buried neediness, anger, and sadness each turn into "Winning, but you don't realize the price you're paying on the flip side" Why being sad in front of people isn't selfish, and why that word is a trap Journaling with a purpose: practicing the right thing instead of rehearsing the wrong one The turnaround story: from suicidal and stuck at home to married with four kids WANT THE BOOKS? The book list we mention in this episode: over 100 books Front Row Dads recommends, the ones that changed how these guys operate at home and at work.

Send us Fan MailChasing happiness is the fastest way to miss your life. In this episode, we unpack why so many of us keep entering new jobs, new relationships, and new purchases expecting them to finally fix us, and why that pattern quietly repeats for years without ever getting named. Bianca opens with a client conversation that required real candor, and Emilia takes it back to first principles: what happiness actually is by definition, why we have been sold the idea that it is the best thing to feel, and what it costs us to treat a passing emotion as a permanent state.We get into the if-then narratives running underneath our decisions, the arrival fallacy, and the law of trade-offs. Emilia shares openly about a recent six-figure purchase and the values-based decision making behind it, and Bianca names the baseline sadness she has stopped apologizing for and started building her work on. The takeaway is not that you will never be happy. It is that grit, distress tolerance, and fulfillment are what actually build a life worth living, and happiness shows up as a byproduct along the way.Here's a related episode that builds on today's conversation: #428 | How to Create a Joy-Filled Life by Design, Not by Default - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/evolve-ventures/id1511831621?i=1000722917711Learn more about:
Everyone knows you're supposed to be b'simcha. Almost nobody is told what to do with the sadness that's still standing there.Rebbe Nachman opens Torah 23 Tinyana with a mashal: a circle of Yidden dancing, and one person standing outside, and the ones inside grab him and drag him in against his will until he's dancing with them. And then he tells us the circle is inside you. When you feel simcha, the marah shechora steps aside on its own — it can't coexist with joy. But that's the small thing. The Rebbe wants more: chase it. Run after the sadness, snatch it, force it into the simcha — until the marah shechora itself turns into simcha and becomes part of your inventory of joy.This is the second shiur on the Torah, and it's mostly questions. That's deliberate — the point isn't to collect answers, it's to live in the kasha until the Rebbe answers you himself.What we go through:• Why the Rebbe opens b'inyan hasimcha — a phrase he uses nowhere else — and then says not one word about simcha before handing us a mashal• Al pi mashal, not l'mashal — and the strangeness of a mashal for simcha that is itself simcha• The chart: sasson, simcha, hasimcha, sameach, chedva, kedusha on one side — yagon va'anacha, atzvus, marah shechora, yisurim, daagos, sitra achra on the other• Sasson is external, simcha is internal; yagon is the ache, anacha is the krechtz• One thought at a time — but many feelings at once, and which feelings cannot coexist• Sasson v'simcha yasigu — a new pshat: not that you attain the simcha, but that the simcha reaches your yagon• The yagon va'anacha of the sitra achra that refuses to be a merkava — and why it has to be forced• Chotfin · machnisin · umachrichin — three stages of b'al korcho, and what state the person is in at each one• Imahem gam kein — the diyuk that carries the whole Torah: I was outside the circle too. I have the same pulls. I just found something, and it isn't my light, it's ours• The white dots and the black dots• how do you actually do this? — and the answer: hisbodedus, and not hatzileini hoshieini• Mesaper lefanav kol libo — not what you did, what you're feeling. Our relationships are transactional; ego talks to ego. "What are you feeling right now?" opens the door for the real you• V'ha'arev na, k'ish echad b'lev echad, and why v'ahavta l'reiacha kamocha is literal• Why Ponevezh was the day I stopped learningWomen's shiur. Part of an ongoing series on Torah 23 Tinyana — there are 125 questions on this Torah, and we're not going to answer all of them.#Breslov #RebNachman #LikuteiMoharan #Simcha #Chassidus #Hisbodedus #Emunah #TorahShiur #JewishWomen

At 24 years old, Niall Donnan has built his work around something remarkably simple: human connection. From asking strangers for hugs to using social media to support people who need help, his mission begins with the belief that a small act of genuine connection can matter far more than we realise.But that mission was born from loss.During COVID restrictions, Niall visited his granny to deliver cigarettes she had asked him to collect. He sanitised the packet, left it outside and spoke to her from a distance rather than going inside. As he returned to his car, she told him she loved him. Niall drove away.She died suddenly the following evening.It meant that an interaction defined by distance, sanitisation and a hurried goodbye became the final time he ever saw somebody with whom he had shared so much of his childhood.That experience gave Niall a question he continues to ask himself and others:What would you do if you had one hour left to live?Most people do not describe achievement, status or possessions. They imagine sitting beside somebody they love.So if that is where we would choose to spend our final hour, why don't we spend more of our ordinary hours doing the same?We explore Niall's journey from feeling directionless at 18, through periods of sadness and anxiety, to finding purpose through service. We discuss the difference between having followers and having influence, why Niall chooses to use social media to create something positive, the stories of people he has met through his work and why strangers can sometimes reveal their humanity to one another in extraordinary ways.Those with ears, let them hear.Always love,RyanConnect with Niall Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/niall.donnan/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/niall.donnan.3/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nialldonnanGo Fund Me Page: https://www.gofundme.com/u/c7ec636f-94a3-43c9-b87a-566ebdae807bConnect with Always Better Than YesterdayWebsite: https://abty.co.uk/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alwaysbetterthanyesterdayuk/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/abty/Join our mailing list: https://abty.co.uk/contactExplore ABTY coaching: https://abty.co.uk/coachingPlease email questions and reflections to: podcast@abty.co.ukChapters:00:00 – Meet Niall Donnan01:56 – Finding Purpose Through the Path02:48 – Life Without a Dream at 1804:46 – The Experience That Changed Everything05:30 – Niall's Final Visit to His Granny08:11 – What If You Had One Hour Left?09:00 – Ryan Reflects on Losing His Nan10:00 – Grief, Sadness and Finding Direction12:49 – Using Social Media for Good13:03 – What Do You Influence?14:03 – The People Behind the Videos16:46 – Why Niall Hugs Strangers18:01 – Escaping the Need to Conform20:00 – Loving People Without Controlling Them24:07 – The Privilege of Being Seen and Heard25:01 – When People Have Nobody27:02 – Has Convenience Made Us Disconnected?30:05 – We Connect at the Edges32:03 – Challenging the Stories We Inherit35:04 – Turning Attention Into Help36:01 – Helping Susie and Bob38:02 – You Don't Need Enormous Resources39:07 – Rebuilding Community Through Love41:04 – Getting Support to Grow the Mission43:44 – What Would Niall's Granny Say Now?44:11 – What Did Her Hug Feel Like?45:05 – Signs, Synchronicity and Stoke City47:12 – The Heartprint of a Hug47:57 – Return to the Final-Hour Question49:00 – Simplicity Wins51:11 – Football and Finding Joy in the Moment52:08 – Connect With Niall52:54 – Your Action: Send the Message#NiallDonnan #HumanConnection #GoFundMe
Have you ever wondered why your porn cravings can feel so intensely sexual—even when you just had sex, genuinely want to quit porn, or know that acting on the craving will hurt you?One of the most important things I've learned in porn addiction recovery is that many cravings aren't really about sex at all.They're emotional.Pressure. Loneliness. Shame. Fear. Inadequacy. Sadness. Anger. Disconnection. Sometimes what my brain labels as “I need porn” is actually an emotional or relational need that I haven't learned how to recognize, feel, and respond to yet.In this episode, I'm diving deep into the connection between porn cravings, emotional triggers, and emotional regulation—and why learning to work with your emotions can become one of the most powerful tools for overcoming pornography addiction.I'll also walk you through the principles behind The RAIL Method™, the emotional mindfulness process I use to help men stop treating cravings and painful emotions like enemies and begin responding to them with acceptance, compassion, and leadership.Because recovery isn't just learning how to resist an urge.It's learning how to understand what that urge is trying to tell you.One of the central ideas I want you to walk away with is this:Your cravings are signals, not commands.You don't have to blindly obey them, and you don't have to hate them either.You can learn to slow down, become present, understand what is happening inside of you, and choose a response that actually serves the man you're becoming.Practice Emotional Mindfulness With UsDuring the month of August, the No More Desire Brotherhood is practicing emotional mindfulness together through our monthly challenge.

In this episode, Maggie writes… “When I lost my joy, my generous friends were there. It can be so hard to accept help from others, especially if you pride yourself on being self-sufficient, but I took them up on their offers of meals, and company, and advice. And I'm so glad I did, because these things were all lifesaving. All of these things, in their own ways, helped me close some wounds.

I interviewed Négar Motevalymeidanshah & Gwenaelle Clauwaert about Less Than 5gr of Saffron on Saturday, August 30, 2025 at Venice Immersive in Venice, Italy. Here is the story synopsis for Less Than 5gr of Saffron: "Golnaz is a young Iranian immigrant trying to adjust to her new life in Germany. One evening, returning from her job (as an assistant at a migrant reception centre in the Berlin suburbs), she is starving, and her refrigerator is empty. She decides to go to the nearest supermarket. The supermarket has just received a new product: saffron. Even though it is very expensive for her, she cannot resist: she buys a packet of saffron. Emotions overwhelm her. She feels the need to cook a home-cooked meal to help her overcome her homesickness. She prepares rice and adds saffron, a comfort food from her past. But she never expected that this moment would plunge her back into the most traumatic events of her life. Most notably, three years ago, she survived a tragic drowning that took her family while traveling illegally by boat." Here are the contextual domains that are explored: Exile and being a refugee [12]. Takes place in a new [4] home far from home [9] whose memory of family who died [8] all brought back through the embodied experience of food and saffron [1]. "The project evokes our capacity to identify profoundly with a survivor by placing her in a universally familiar-preparing a meal." Here is the Elemental Center of Gravity: 1st Center of Gravity of Earth Element / Environmental and Embodied Presence: Quinitessential and paradigmatic example of spatial storytelling taking through a variety of immersive and spatial contexts with seamless transitions and edits. Also switches between 3rd person and 1st person POV2nd Center of Gravity of Water Element / Emotional Presence: Like living within a Lucid Dream, very dynamic, poetic. It's cut to music, and so it very much has a music video type pacing and rhythm. Some really elegant spatial transitions, and powerful moments that use metaphors that were just extremely visceral and moving. The piece very much relies upon flashbacks and memories of traumatic moments of escaping authoritarian contexts. So you start off in the mudance context of a kitchen from a first-person POV, but then upon smelling the saffron spice, then it immediately transports you into these violent memories of being an exiled refugee. It's also farily brief, and so short and sweet.3rd Center of Gravity of Air Element / Mental and Social Presence: No words, Poetic Dream Logic. Meaning is discerned through the poetic interpretations of the juxtaposition of a visual and spatial storytelling lanuage. Very powerfully done.4th Center of Gravity of Fire Element / Active Presence: No narrative agency or any embodied Interactions Archetypal Themes and Character Explored: Connections to flavors and smells of food to memory. Sadness, harshness, limitations, constraint. Sudden and unexpected trauma -- "she never expected that this moment would plunge her back into the most traumatic events of her life" Artist Statement: "Less than 5 Gr of Saffron tackles a subject we think we've already seen too much of: the often tragic circumstances under which many migrants flee their home countries in search of a better future. A hundred times, stories of shipwrecks and the numbers of those drowned have filled our screens, anonymous people who disappear from our memories with a snap of the fingers. The project evokes our capacity to identify profoundly with a survivor by placing her in a universally familiar-preparing a meal. In today's extremely violent context, this empathetic experience helps to rekindle within us a common humanity, whether we have experienced such trauma firsthand or not." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7VtxTHx_H0 This is a listener-supported podcast through the Voices of VR Patreon.

Old.O-L-D.Why are we so afraid of saying the word?In this episode of Souloist, I want to unwrap the idea of getting old — not as something we must pretend is wonderful, and certainly not as something we can completely control, but asanother part of this strange, difficult, funny and beautiful experience we call life.I share some of what ageing has taught me: to look for the small things that bring lightness; to know what is inside my own “toolbox” of joy; to laugh whenever laughter arrives; to sing when a word suddenly brings a song into my head; and perhaps most importantly, to allow life to come as it comes.Sadness belongs too. So does fear. So does grief.There is no light without darkness, and no joy without sadness. Growing older has not removed these things from my life. But perhaps it has taught me to stop fighting quite so much with what arrives at my door.And old age brings gifts of its own:caring less about what other people think, having more freedom to be yourself, discovering parts of yourself you didn't know existed, walking more slowly, doing things at your own pace — and allowing yourself simply to be.So, my friends — young, old and somewhere in between — if you possibly can: I highly recommend getting old.And I'd love to know: what is your relationship with getting older? Do you celebrate it, fear it, resist it — or perhaps a little of all three?Stay connected with SouloistFollow or subscribe to Souloist wherever you listen to your podcasts, so we can meet again when the next episode is released.And if an episode speaks to you, please share it with a friend — or with someone you feel might enjoy it, need it, or simply appreciate the conversation.You can also find Souloist – Life Between the Notes on FaceBook,Instagram ,YouTube,LinkedinSupport the podcastIf you enjoy Souloist and would like to support the podcast, you're warmly invited to make a donation through PayPal:http://bit.ly/PayPal-SouloistThank you for listening, for sharing, for being here, and for your generosity. ❤️

Storyteller: Venerable Miao GuangAlthough many disciples have attained liberation, the Buddha appears deeply troubled. Ananda asks what weighs upon his heart, and receives an unexpected answer.佛陀的憂喜儘管許多弟子已證得聖果,佛陀卻顯得憂心忡忡。阿難請問其中原因,卻聽見一個出乎意料的答案……
Most of us spend a lot of time trying to be happy and avoiding sadness whenever we can. But what if sadness isn't something to fear or eliminate? What if it's one of the most important emotions we have? Why do we cry when we're grieving—but also when we're overwhelmed with joy? Why does listening to sad music often make us feel better instead of worse? And when does a good cry actually help us recover, while other times it only leaves us feeling stuck? According to David Huron, sadness isn't simply an unpleasant emotion we have to endure. It serves important psychological and biological purposes that help us cope with loss, strengthen relationships, and even prepare us for the future. Understanding how sadness works can change the way you experience difficult moments and help you recognize the difference between healthy sadness and harmful rumination. David Huron is Professor Emeritus at Ohio State University and author of The Science of Sadness: A New Understanding of Emotion.

We begin learning Likutei Moharan Torah 23 Tinyana b'iyun — one of the Rebbe's shortest Torahs, and one of the deepest. Rebbe Nachman opens with a mashal everyone knows: people are dancing at a simcha, and they grab the one standing outside the circle — the one in sadness, in marah shechorah — and pull him in against his will, until he too is dancing. Then the Rebbe reveals the nimshal: you can do the same thing with your own emotions. When a moment of simcha comes, don't just enjoy it — chase down your worry, your ache, your sadness, drag it into the circle, and watch it convert into joy itself. In this first class we build the map of the Torah and learn how to ask questions on every word: • The mashal and the nimshal: forcing the marah shechorah into the simcha • "Sason v'simcha yasigu, v'nasu yagon va'anacha" — chasing the sadness that flees from joy • Why simcha and atzvus cannot exist in the same moment • The Sitra Achra: where yagon va'anacha really comes from • The biggest words in the Torah: HaSimcha means Kedusha • Three leshonos — hasimcha, sameach, besimcha — and why every word is medayek • The Arizal's secret: b'simcha is the same letters as machshavah — joy lives in the mind • Moach shalit al halev: you can control your feelings, because thought comes before emotion • The black dot and the white page: why we focus on the one thing wrong instead of the thousands of things right • A sneak preview of milsa d'shtusa — the Rebbe's advice to do something silly Bring a notebook — write down your questions, share the Torah with a friend, and learn it b'chavrusa. The tachlis is not to learn the Torah but to live it. #LikuteiMoharan #RebbeNachman #Breslov #Simcha #Torah23 #WomensShiur #Joy #Emunah #TorahStudy

Pain. Sadness. Regret. Charlie Sheen.
Every screening tool used in OB-GYN and pediatric offices across the United States is designed to catch postpartum depression. Sadness. Hopelessness. Difficulty bonding. None of them screen for postpartum psychosis — a condition that involves hallucinations, command voices, delusions, and a complete break from reality. It affects one to two women in every thousand births. And the person going through it almost never knows it is happening.Lindsay Clancy was a labor and delivery nurse who sought help from every corner of the medical system after the birth of her third child. She went to her providers. She called crisis lines. She checked herself into McLean Hospital. She was prescribed nine medications over four months. She told her doctors she was having intrusive thoughts. Her civil lawsuit alleges those were auditory hallucinations — voices she could not distinguish from reality — and that her providers treated them as anxiety without ever asking the question that would have changed the diagnosis.A forensic psychiatrist later diagnosed her with Bipolar Disorder I with postpartum onset — meaning the antidepressants her doctors prescribed may have triggered the psychotic episodes they kept failing to identify. Her husband Patrick told a friend that Lindsay seemed overmedicated and was acting like a zombie. An outside hospital flagged overmedication and misdiagnosis. According to the lawsuit, the response from her nurse practitioner never came.Tony Brueski explains the condition at the center of Lindsay Clancy's murder trial — what it is, what it is not, and what every person with a new mother in their life needs to understand.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

But forget standard, brain-dead zombies—this virus mutates the brain's empathy centres, turning everyday citizens into sadistic, bloodthirsty sadomasochists who act on their absolute worst, most depraved impulses with a big, terrifying smile.Is this a masterful, adrenaline-fueled masterpiece of modern body horror, or did the relentless, mean-spirited depravity finally push the boys past their breaking point?Plus, we play a special survival game: Can Marc actually survive a zombie apocalypse in The Sadness universe? Knowing these zombies aren't just hungry, but deeply, aggressively sadistic... things are going to get ugly.We'll also dive into a fresh batch of listener voicemails, drop some production facts, and check out 3 Word ReviewWARNING: This episode contains discussion of a highly extreme horror film featuring themes of sexual violence and extreme gore, alongside our usual strong language and unfiltered insults.

Your thoughts create your feelings and there is tremendous opportunity to bring gentle thoughts into your vulnerable feelings as a mother. It's likely we will all feel sad in the fleeting time of motherhood when we observe the growing faces and personalities of our children. What we choose to do with that vulnerable feeling is what we will absolutely love or deeply regret. You can feel sad and love the reason why you feel sad. You can feel sad and love what you do next- jumping up and running through the sprinklers with your kids because you realize this is the time you get to do this!To get details of the mastermind with me, email connect@momset.com with details of who you want to become.

Walking home late one night, he saw a pale girl standing near the road, crying into her hands.He stopped to ask if she needed help. Instead of answering, she looked up in shock and ran into the thick brush near a creek.When he followed, there was nowhere she could have gone. A steep muddy embankment, barbed wire, and blackberry vines blocked the way. No footsteps. No movement. No sound.The girl had simply vanished.Years later, what haunts him most isn't just what he saw on the road. It's the feeling that followed him home afterward—a cold, lingering sadness he still can't fully explain.#RealGhostStories #ParanormalPodcast #GhostStory #RoadsideGhost #UnexplainedMysteries #HauntedRoad #TrueGhostStory #ParanormalEncounter #GhostlyEncounter #SupernaturalStories Love real ghost stories?
