Send us a texthttps://jilljardineastrology.com/shop/  book your reading and Sanskrit Mantra transmission session.Ever wondered why your manifestation efforts haven't yielded the abundance you desire? The answer lies in an ancient sound technology that modern manifestation methods often overlook.While visualization and "feeling as if" techniques dominate today's law of attraction landscape, they primarily engage only your mental and emotional bodies. What about the subconscious mind—that powerful force controlling 95% of your thoughts and behaviors? This is where Sanskrit mantras shine as transformative tools for manifestation, working directly to clear subconscious blocks while simultaneously raising your vibrational frequency.When properly chanted, these sacred sound formulas activate Shakti (divine life force), clear karmic patterns, and attune your entire being to the frequency of abundance. Whether you seek financial prosperity, vibrant health, fulfilling relationships, or simply more time to enjoy life, these mantras create the energetic conditions for manifestation.In this episode, I share five powerful Sanskrit mantras for abundance from my authentic Sanskrit Mantra lineage. Each mantra is taught with proper pronunciation and explanation of its energetic effects, with recommendations to chant 108 times daily for maximum benefit.Ready to transform your manifestation practice with these ancient vibrational technologies? The mantras shared in this episode have been carefully transmitted through an authentic guru lineage, ensuring their potency and purity. As my teacher wisely says: "Mantras are powerful, they are formidable, they work." Experience their transformative effects as you chant your way to prosperity and abundance. This grouping of mantras is specific to bringing more prosperity into your life.  The mantras invoke the Goddess of Prosperity, Lakshmi, in Vedic teachings.  Chanting to  Lakshmi,  and Kubera, the celestial treasure, will bring in more abundance in the form of money, good luck, helpful people, fortuitous circumstances, blessings and boons.Chant these powerful mantras 108 X to bring more abundance into your life.1) Shrim (Shreem):  This is the bija mantra for the Lakshmi principle of abundance. This means all kinds of abundance, which can show up as material prosperity, spiritual abundance, peace as wealth, health as wealth, and more. 2) Klim (Kleem):  Seed principle for attraction.  This sound is commonly combined with other mantras to attract the object of desire.  To powerfully attract wealth it can be combined with the Lakshmi seed, Shrim, and added to a Lakshmi mantra.3) Om Shrim Klim Maha Lakshmiyei Namaha (Ohm Shreem Kleem Ma-ha Laksh-me-yei Na-ma-ha):  This is a prosperity mantra which combines the "shrim" seed for abundance with the "klim" seed for attraction with the Lakshmi foundation mantra.4)  Ha Sa Ka La E I La Hrim- Ha Sa Ka La E I La Hrim (Hreem)This is a seed mantra for abundance to increase prosperity.  This mantra consists of seed or "bija" mantras which activates chakras (energy centers).  "Hrim" is the seed sound for the sacred heart.  This mantra gives attunement to the celestial treasurer, Kubera.  Lakshmi and Kubera work together to bring in more prosperity.5) Om Eim Klim Sau Sau Klim Eim: (Ohm I'm Kleem Saw Saw Kleem I'm)Brings in universal consciousness and the Saraswati principle of feminine spiritual wisdom to activate "shakti" (or the divine lifeforce energy) to attract desires including happiness, prosperity, love and liberation).*The information in this podcast is the intellectual property of Jill Jardine, and can not be replicated or useSupport the show

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

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.

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

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.
