معنای مانترای "اُم""اُم" در واقع ترکیبی از سه صدای "A" (آ)، "U" (او) و "M" (م) است که با هم ترکیب می‌شوند و یک ارتعاش خاص ایجاد می‌کنند: "A" (آ): نماد آگاهی بیدار، آغاز خلقت، انرژی فعال و جسم فیزیکی. "U" (او): نماد آگاهی رویا، انرژی درونی، ناخودآگاه و ذهن. "M" (م): نماد آگاهی عمیق، سکوت، آرامش مطلق و یگانگی با هستی.این سه صدا با هم نشان‌دهنده چرخه زندگی شامل تولد، رشد و مرگ یا بیداری، خواب و سکوت عمیق هستند.

Send us a textSaraswati Published by Serpent's TailIt's hard to talk about Gurnaik Johal's debut novel without using the word epic. Saraswati is transcontinental, multi-generational and led by a broad cast of characters - if you're a fan of fiction on the scale of a book like Martin MacInnes' In Ascension, then Saraswati is for you.Beginning with the re-emergence of a supposedly mythical river, Saraswati follows the descendants of a lone couple Sejal and Jugaad, pursuing familial tributaries that run across borders and time. Weaving in themes of climate change, resurgent nationalism and ancient religious texts, it is a novel brimming with images that live long in the memory. Huge crowds mass at river banks, cities flood, mountains beckon and a single piece of cloth links characters around the world. More than anything, Saraswati continually returns to  the power of story telling. The stories we tell to understand ourselves, the stories we are told by those in power and the stories we leave for those that follow.‘A surging, roaring deluge of a novel.' Jon McGregor‘Immersive, intimate and epic.' Preti Taneja‘A bold, intriguing tapestry that pulses with frenetic energy.'Aube Rey@fieldzine www.fieldzine.comwww.patreon.com/fieldzine

Hãy cùng chúng tôi tham gia một hành trình có một không hai đến Prayagraj, vùng đất linh thiêng nơi ba dòng sông thiêng, sông Hằng, sông Yamuna và sông Saraswati huyền thoại, giao nhau.

In this episode, we explore Brahma Granthi, the energetic knot associated with fear, guilt, and shame, which binds us to concerns of survival, safety, and belonging. Rooted in the wisdom of the Upanishads, Granthis are psycho-emotional and energetic blockages that hinder spiritual liberation. Through yoga asana, pranayama, bandhas, and mantra...specifically the bija AIM, invoking Saraswati's wisdom...we work to untie these knots and cultivate trust, grounding, and self-awareness. This practice invites us to recognise and release limiting beliefs, restoring balance and deepening our connection to our true essence. Notice how this experience unfolds within you beyond the mat.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here. To support Zephyr Yoga Podcast, donate here. Hosted on Acast.

You're not locked into karma—you're being trained by it. In this illuminating Q&A episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha reveal how the law of karma is less about punishment and more about cosmic sensitivity training. But the deeper question is: Do you want to stay under karma's rule, or reconnect with the root of all existence?

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura Appearance Day - Chaitanya Charan by Exploring mindfulness, yoga and spirituality

La ciudad india de Prayag (también conocida como Prayagraj o por su antiguo nombre musulmán, Allahabad) es destino durante estos días de la mayor peregrinación del planeta, la mayor reunión de personas de la historia de la humanidad. Atraídos por la confluencia de los ríos Ganges, Yamuna y el mítico Saraswati, cuatrocientos millones de individuos se movilizan desde todos los rincones del país y del mundo. Su objetivo es bañarse en unas aguas que, según la creencia hindú, procuran la inmortalidad. Para comprender este apabullante fenómeno que se repite en ciclos de 12 años, caminamos junto a Javier Hernández Sinde, autor del libro 'Kumbha Mela, peregrinación a la inmortalidad' (Universo de Letras). Nos acompañan también el escritor, periodista y profesor Narén Herrero, autor de 'Kumbha Mela, la celebración espiritual más grande del mundo' (Kairós), y el sacerdote Juan Carlos Ramchandani (Krishna Kripa Dasa), presidente de la Federación Hindú de España. Con todos ellos esbozamos un retrato de este "festival de la jarra", que se articula en torno al Triveni Sangam, la triple convergencia de cauces sagrados en esta localidad del estado de Uttar Pradesh. Contamos además con la mirada de dos fotógrafos: Gabriel Brau, que recogió con su cámara la cita de 2013, y Alberto Díaz Calvo, inmerso en la presente edición de 2025. Nadie quiere perderse las procesiones del baño, protagonizadas por los llamativos naga babas, ascetas desnudos cubiertos de ceniza. No menos espectacular es el desafío de alojar a los cientos de millones de peregrinos que pasarán por Prayag hasta finales de febrero, para lo que se ha levantado una descomunal ciudad efímera de 40 kilómetros cuadrados conocida como Kumbh Nagri.Escuchar audio

The Hindu festival of Kumbh Mela is currently underway in India. As part of the event, millions of pilgrims will take a cleansing dip in the confluence of the Ganges, Yamuna and the mythical Saraswati. Inspired by this headline, we splash into a whole bathtub of stories about the science of cleaning. We find out why it's so important to prevent contamination of other planets and moons, and how space scientists keep things clean. Next up, we discover how our brains clear out harmful toxins while we snooze.And is there any truth in the saying, ‘tidy house, tidy mind'?Finally, Marnie ponders whether it's possible to be too clean, or if being a bit grubby is okay.

This week's episode features an archival conversation from about four years ago during the pandemic with J. Brown, host of the Yoga Talks podcast. J. Brown has been practicing yoga for over 25 years and is widely known as a writer and industry-leading podcaster. His signature offering is a deeply breath-centered, therapeutic yoga practice inspired by the TKV Desikachar tradition, aimed at fostering well-being and reducing pain. J. Brown's journey into yoga began as a way to process his mother's death, seeking freedom from the grief and disillusionment that accompanied it. Starting with Ashtanga and Iyengar styles, J. eventually found his way to a therapeutic approach through the teachings of Swami P. Saraswati and the Krishnamacharya tradition. He teaches that yoga is not a linear progression but a practice of learning how to care for oneself. In this conversation, we explore the evolving dynamics of yoga practice and the teacher-student relationship. The discussion covers themes such as balancing devotion and discernment, the challenges of navigating modern spirituality, and common misconceptions about awakening. It highlights the importance of aligning one's practice, goals, and philosophical view to bring clarity to the spiritual path, offering valuable insights into the role of teachers and the transformative power of yoga.Discover a treasure trove of guided meditations, teachings, and courses at tantrailluminated.org.

The spiritual festival, held every 12 years, attracts millions of devotees who gather to bathe at the sacred Triveni Sangam, where the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati rivers converge.
