Discovering Tapas & DanaWelcome to a heartfelt exploration of Tapas & Dana, two vital concepts from Bhagavad Gita Chapter 17 that promise to transform your daily life. Tapas & Dana define how we refine ourselves while lifting others, offering a roadmap to authentic spiritual growth. From bodily discipline and thoughtful speech to pure-hearted generosity, Tapas & Dana show how every action can bring you closer to your higher purpose.Picture the simple power of Tapas & Dana in daily routines. By rising just 15 minutes earlier for meditation or stretching (a reflection of Tapas), you can ignite a sense of vitality and mental clarity. By choosing to share a portion of your breakfast with someone in need (a small but sincere act of Dana), you plant the seeds of compassion and empathy. Tapas & Dana merge the practical with the profound, proving that a single moment of self-restraint or selflessness can shift the trajectory of your entire day.The Bhagavad Gita divides Tapas (austerity) and Dana (charity) into three categories: Sattvic, Rajasic, and Tamasic. Sattvic Tapas & Dana flow from a spirit of purity, sincerity, and service. Rajasic Tapas & Dana, however, often seek praise or material benefit, making them less stable. Tamasic Tapas & Dana can arise from misguided actions or even harmful motivations. By discovering where your personal acts of discipline and charity fit within these modes, you can consciously move toward a life shaped by Sattvic qualities.One of the most captivating tales linked to Tapas & Dana features King Yudhisthira's grand Rājasūya Yajña, followed by a startling encounter with a half-golden mongoose. Despite the grandeur of the king's ceremony, the mongoose declared that a humble family's meager yet selfless gift surpassed all lavish donations. This story from the Mahābhārata highlights how true Tapas & Dana reside in the purity of one's heart rather than the scale of external performance.Anyone can integrate Tapas & Dana into modern life. Set a goal for gentle communication that avoids harmful words (verbal austerity) or commit to mindful eating (bodily austerity). Offer a helping hand or resources to someone who cannot repay you (selfless Dana) and experience how this giving uplifts your perspective. With each step, you will notice a deepening connection to the wisdom of Bhagavad Gita, and you will see just how Tapas & Dana provide a blueprint for moral strength, emotional well-being, and heightened spiritual awareness.Learn more about Tapas & Dana through real-life success stories and detailed breakdowns in this podcast. By the end, you will feel inspired to apply these principles wholeheartedly, empowering your personal growth and nurturing a more compassionate world.krsnadaasa (Servant of Krishna)
The Journey Beyond FoodWelcome to a deep dive into the Three Types of Food and Charity, a teaching embedded in Bhagavad Gita's verse 17.7 to 17.13. This episode unveils how Shri Krishna classifies not only our food choices but also the ways we give back—revealing profound insights on what nourishes both body and soul.Sattvic diet for spiritual clarity emerges as a central theme in these verses. Think of fresh, wholesome meals cooked with care and positive intention. These foods uplift your mood, steady your mind, and create an environment ripe for inner growth. Meanwhile, Rajasic food and mental restlessness highlight those spicy, over-stimulating dishes that rev the senses and can intensify agitation or anxiety. Finally, we touch upon Tamasic diet and inertia, where stale, tasteless, or impure fare leads to lethargy, confusion, or deeper disconnection.But our conversation doesn't stop at diet. Krishna's powerful instructions also illuminate charitable action in Gita's three modes, showing how the intention behind our giving can mirror the same Sattvic, Rajasic, and Tamasic qualities.We'll take a close look at what these verses mean for day-to-day life. How do you align your meal choices with spirituality, especially in a fast-paced, modern setting? Is it possible to follow a Gita-based approach to dietary harmony while juggling a hectic job, family obligations, and limited cooking time? The answer is a resounding yes. Even small habit shifts—such as opting for fresher ingredients, offering a short prayer of gratitude before meals, or being mindful while eating—can make a profound difference.Krishna's guidance on sacrifice and giving also plays a pivotal role. We discuss how giving from a place of genuine compassion (Sattvic giving) enriches both giver and receiver, whereas giving for accolades (Rajasic) or out of neglectful compulsion (Tamasic) diminishes the inherent joy and purity of charity.Throughout the episode, we'll interweave real-life anecdotes and spiritual insights, revealing how the Three Types of Food and Charity can transform your everyday actions into opportunities for growth. By understanding Sattva Rajas Tamas explained in a modern context, you'll see how seemingly mundane decisions—like choosing what to eat for lunch or how to help someone in need—can become profound expressions of your deeper spiritual path.If you've ever felt that the act of eating or giving could carry more significance, you won't want to miss this. Join us as we unravel the layers behind verse 17.7 to 17.13 and discover how aligning food choices with spirituality can elevate the mind, heart, and soul. After all, when we attune our daily habits to sacred principles, we plant seeds for inner transformation and societal upliftment.– krsnadaasa (Servant of Krishna)

The digestion of food and the digestion of life are intimately connected. If we're consuming food and activities that don't have prana or life force, the flow of our energy decreases. For example, if we consume heavily processed food regularly, it will affect our digestion and our mental capacity for life. It becomes a unhealthful cycle.Agni on a cellular level, allows us to process, transform and make good use of what we consume. When we consume things that have life force and sattvic qualities, agni can build tissue, make ojas strong and the mind stable.Join Myra Lewin, Founder of Hale Pule Ayurveda and Yoga, and Ericka, one of our Ayurvedic Health Counselors, as they discuss the important role agni has in maintaining mental health.

Title: Performing Actions with Sattvic Shraddha17th Chapter: verses 26, 27, 28; recapitulation of 17th chapterIt is difficult for normal human beings to perform their spiritual practices with perfection. With the utterance of “Om Tat Sat”, when we perform any act - Yajna, dana and tapah – they become purified. When we offer our activity to the all-pervading reality that is present in everyone and everything, the activity is purified. They become auspicious and spiritually meritorious.26th verse: “Sat indicates the Absolute Reality which is all-pervading, immortal, good for humanity and which sustains us. Sat means sat-bhāve “with the intention of essential goodness and nobility”, sādhu-bhāve “with auspicious intention” and praśhaste karmaṇi “Inspired by the an inner call and the Atman within”.27th verse: “With great steadiness, when we perform Yajna, dana and tapah, it is called Sat. Any activity done for the sake of Tat, which is the all-pervading divine reality, is also Sat.”Yajna refers to any noble, unselfish deed that is done with a sense of sanctity and sacredness and as an offering to God. Dana refers to any act of compassion, kindness and charity meant to help others. Tapah means austerity, activities that we do with the mind and senses focused on a single purpose with a sense of sanctity and sacredness.When we perform anything thinking of the all-pervading divine reality, then it becomes worship in the form of action, and it brings an element of steadiness to the activity. Steadiness comes from the Absolute Reality which is eternal and unchanging.28th verse: “Performing Yajna, dana and tapah with a sattvic attitude and a sense of dedication to the divine is Sat. Its opposite is called Asat. Performing hutam (sacrifice), dattam (charity), tapaḥ (austerity) or kṛitam (any other activity), without sattvic shraddha is Asat.”Shraddha cannot be properly translated in English. Shraddha refers to a sense of sanctity and sacredness that helps us preserve higher values. It can also mean faith in scriptures, God, teacher, and a sense of integrity. The shraddha of human beings is three-fold – Sattvika, Rajasika and Tamasika. Yajna, dana and tapah should be performed with sattvic shraddha.When we perform charity there is a possibility that we may get the opposite of gratitude from the recipient. That can hurt us unless we are guided by a higher spiritual ideal in the act of charity. Sattvic shraddha turns any activity into a spiritual activity.The following is a recapitulation of the 17th chapter:The 17th chapter starts with a question from Arjuna: “Those who have a high degree of shraddha but do not know how to follow shastram, what happens to them?”Shraddha is of three types - Sattvika, Rajasika and Tamasika. Sattvika is the highest and most sublime. It manifests itself as wisdom and serenity. If a person is very active and makes a show of his wealth and power, his attitude is Rajasika. Tamasika attitude manifests itself as laziness and delusion.In a rajarshi (philosopher king) – the philosophical aspect comes from sattva guna and the kingly aspect comes from rajo guna. His rajo guna is dominated and regulated by sattva guna.Shraddha is based on our inherent natural tendencies, which is based on our samskaras. Every action leaves a residual effect (vritti) in our mental system. Many identical vrittis – from similar, repeated actions – solidify a distinct memory block called Samskara.In Patanajali Yoga Sutra, Vyasa says: “The river of the human mind flows in two directions. One is of a positive nature and takes us towards higher spiritual fulfillment. The other is of a negative nature and takes us away from our cherished aspirations.” The mind may not act as our friend when it is not ready. For example, when we want to meditate (positive flow of the river), the mind may procrastinate (negative flow of the river).Vyasa also says that we can turn the mind into a friend with a refining process. The refining process starts with doing some noble, unselfish deeds. Such deeds increase the store house of positive samskaras and negate the negative samskaras. The mind then begins to evolve. When we perform our activities with sattvic shraddha, we improve the proportion of positive flow in the river of mind.The following discussions took place in the question-answer section of the class:The translation of Sanskrit words, such as Samskara, are limited in scope in the dictionary meaning. They can only be explained by giving examples. An example of past samskaras is a child prodigy in music, whose family has no background in music.We should put our ego to good work. When we perform an activity as Swadharma and as an offering to the divine, the ego is sublimated to a sattvic level.Creation moves in cycles – from creation to sustenance to dissolution to re-emergence.
Fire is one of the most powerful of the elements. When we tap into its energy, we bring alive transformation within ourselves. Fire has always been used in most rituals especially in Yoga traditions. Some of the oldest Deities worshiped were Agni, the God of Fire. Indra, the God of Storms. And Soma, the God of the Moon. As time passed these Gods fell in to the shadows as others became more popular. However, the basic fire, water and nourishment as a blessing is always there. In rituals they would offer seeds, flowers, gee and incense to feed the fire. In this practice we will begin to offer our inner fire 3 things that bring us joy, to symbolically feed the fire and direct the heat, to what our heart desires. Your personal intention for this practice. What does your heart burn for? Greater health, wealth, purpose, contentment, resolve, love, connection?Agni evolved to be associated with the action of transformation. When our inner flames are stoked, fire provides energy for the body in loads of ways:Digestive Fire, helping transform food into energyVital Fire, helping transform energy to fuel actions, motivate us Intelligence Fire, power of cognition Mental Fire, helping drive ideas into action Compassion Fire, helping warm to ourselves and our actions with empathy, tenderness and kindnessLaw of Nature of Fire is Heat in the form of your temperature, metabolism, phyical-digestive-mental power as well as your creative energy. This gives us our drive, determination, confidence, charisma, hunger, courage and energy to direct us to fulfil our purpose. We feel this at our solar plexus, solar – sun, or called Manipura Chakra. We know when our fire is balanced, that Sattvic affect expresses itself through inner strength, vital fuel, the energy to motivate us to a more purposeful, disciplined and spontaneous life. Hasta Mudra – Agni MudraBija – RAMThe sense organ is Sight, to See, to have Visions. What do you see in your future? What visions of your future do you want to create? Let's build and direct this Fire to give this practice more meaning and purpose as you connect to what brings you JOY and what your heart burns for.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here.

2023-05-20 ISV - Cultivating Sattvic Qualities - HG Vaisesika Dasa by Vaisesika Dasa
Ayurveda is based on understanding 3 thingsYour Prakruti which is the nature of an individuals personal constitution Make-UpYour Vikruti which is the nature of your imbalanceYour bespoked Medicine in the form of Yoga, Pranayama, Mediations, foods, herbs, vitimans and other life style choices to bring you into harmony, optimising your health and well-beingThis is ideally pointing us to the middle path of being Sattvic in Nature, however imbalance happens, we categorise it as either going too much into Rajasic or Tamasic territory. Over the next three sessions we will look at the Doshas individually, relating to the Dosha when it is in harmony or out of balance. VATA DOSHA is said to be connected directly to the nervous system and what motivates the other Doshas to move. Vata is the expression of life energy, Prana, which works through the element of Wind and Space which is the active energy in nature, stimulating all things in motion. Vata has a typical type of body that is said to be the weakest build, delicate bone structure, thin, lean, light and small in frame, they don't carry much weight, hyper-mobile, cold, skin tends to be thin, transparent dry and rough and have fine hair, Character Traits of Vata are; being lively, fun, kind-hearted, easily enthused, high in energy, always on the go. You see them running around on their tip toes, limbs expressing their hyper-active and erratic energy. Mentally they are exceptionally creative, love chatting and they are always brimming with ideas, very imaginative. They have the greatest capacity for change and adaptation to life as they are very agile and responsive. They are quick to learn as well as quick to forget as they tend to be multitaskers and get easily distracted by something new.The exercise that Vata natured people tend to be drawn to, are solitary sports likerunning, cycling, swimming, walking, dancing and even Yoga but prefer doing them by themselves as this is time for them to get lost in their head while moving.The best diet for a balanced Vata is to eat warm, earthing foods, likes soups, cooked foods which are soft, sweet, sour and salty. As Vata is a combination Wind and Space aggravated Vata shows up in the body in a few ways where one gets DRIED UP & SPUN OUT. The first way is dehydration in the joints, tissues and dry, rough skin. They have poor circulation, cold hands and feet and highly sensitive to the cold. So stiffness and cracking of the joints that is present. They are on the go so much where they have irregular appetites and eating patterns. This imbalance in the wind element tends to make digestion sensitive to bloating, discomfort and constipation. They should avoid raw, dry, bitter and cold foods. If a woman, they have irregular periods. When they get ill it usually goes to the lungs.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here. To support Zephyr Yoga Podcast, donate here. Hosted on Acast.

Fire, Agni in Sanskrit, is one of the most powerful of the elements. When we tap into its energy, we bring alive a transformation within ourselves.Fire has always been used in most rituals especially in Yoga traditions. Some of the oldest Deities worshiped were Agni, the God of Fire. Indra, the God of Storms and Soma, the God of the Moon. As time passed these Gods fell in to the shadows as others became more popular, however, the basic fire, water and nourishment as a blessing is always there in rituals. During a fire ritual, called a Puja, they would offer nourishment to feed the fire in the form of seeds, flowers, gee and incense.In this ritual practice of Yoga, we will feed our inner fire by offering it 3 things that bring us joy, to symbolically build that fire and direct the heat, to what our heart desires. We will then connect to a personal intention for this practice to create that heat for positive change, Tapas. Does your heart burn for greater health, wealth, purpose, contentment, resolve, love, connection? Ask what do you need from this practice to create inner harmony, balance and serenity to move forward in your life?Agni, over time, evolved to be associated with the action of transformation. When our inner flames are stoked, fire provides energy for the body in loads of ways:Digestive Fire, helping transform food into energyVital Fire, helping transform energy to fuel actions, motivate us Intelligence Fire, power of cognitionMental Fire, helping drive ideas into action Compassion Fire, helping warm to ourselves and our actions with empathy, tenderness and kindnessLaw of Nature of fire is heat in the form of your temperature, metabolism, phyical-digestive-mental power and your creative energy. This gives you drive, determination, confidence, charisma, hunger, courage and energy to take action to fulfil your purpose.You will feel this at your solar plexus, solar – sun, Manipura Chakra. This centre is the energetic hub and connects you to your Ego. Too much fire here you become Rajasic – arrogant, dominating, controlling, aggressiveness, reactive, inflamed, irritable and angry. Too little fire here you become Tamasic – fear, shame, guilt, poor self-esteem, passivity, weak in will and drive. You know when your fire is balanced, that Sattvic effect expresses itself as – boundless energy, inner strength, vital fuel, being purposeful, disciplined, spontaneous, independent and motivated.We will layer our practice with:Hasta Mudra – Agni MudraBija Mantra – RAMThe sense organ of Sight, to See, to have VisionsAs we build and direct the heat to the attachments or bondages you want to burn through that don't serve you any longer. Identify what your soul longs for, that burning heart's desires and the vision of your future you want to create. Let's build and direct this fire to give this practice more meaning and purpose.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here. To support Zephyr Yoga Podcast, donate here.

17th verse: “Extremely conceited, haughty, filled with pride and intoxication of wealth, they perform all sacrifices with great ostentation disregarding all ordinances.” This is the literal translation. The meaning of the verse is that such people do things in an improper manner without any consideration for propriety.Kama refers to desire – the mind wants to go after worldly desire all the time. Dambha refers to religious or spiritual pride and superiority. Māna means they think they deserve more honor than others. Mada means delusion, an over estimation of one's abilities. These are characteristics of people who become conceited and indulge in showmanship.Sri Ramakrishna refers to three types of devotees – Sattvic, who are serene and contemplative. Rajasic who are externally expressive. And Tamasic who worship in a careless manner.18th verse: “Filled with egotism, power, insolence, lust and anger, such people hate Me. They do not recognize the presence of the divine spark in themselves and in others.”There are two types of strengths. In the first type, one has wealth, power, status but he is self-restraint. He does not have aversion towards anyone. In the second type, the power is accompanied by extreme likes and dislikes.It is important to combine any kind of power with humility and self-restraint. If a wealthy or powerful person is humble, it is a blessing to society.Ramanuja says in his commentary on the 18th verse: “The very idea of Viveka (discrimination) and Vairagya (renunciation) never comes to them because they have no genuine devotion to God. Their mind remains impure, and they always criticize. They think of someone who exercises self-restraint as weak. They think of knowledge without showmanship as ignorance.”19th verse: The literal meaning is: “These people – who are proud, malicious, cruel and born of evil qualities – I hurl them perpetually in the wombs of the demons.” The interpretation is: “Those who deliberately do sinful deeds, they fall into perpetual demonic state.”There is no eternal damnation in Hinduism. Only Madhvacharya talked about it. The majority do not accept this view. God is not the arbitrator.Gita says that we should build our own spiritual destiny. We reap according to the types of seeds we sow. According to our own actions, we create heaven or hell like conditions in our life.If we take refuge in God's grace, our destiny will change. But we have to make ourselves graceworthy with our own self effort. Such refuge requires complete self-surrender. If we do so, it will be difficult for us to do anything wrong.Prapati is the highest state of a devotee of God. Prapati means complete surrender and is composed of the following characteristics. (1) Always having a positive outlook in life, full of sattvic qualities such as serenity, wisdom, compassion, and broad mindedness. (2) Rejecting all the opposing qualities such as skepticism and self-doubt. (3) Strong faith that God will protect me. (4) Total self-surrender.One of the Brahma Sutras says: “God is taking care of everything. Everything happens according to our previous deeds.”Though everything comes from God, God is not responsible for what we do. We act according to our own samskaras. Just professing a belief in God will not change our life. Prapati or complete self-surrender will have an immediate effect.20th verse: “Those who hate others and reinforce their own evil character, they continue to rotate in this cycle of samsara.”21st verse: “There are three gates to a hellish life – hellish conditions created from our own actions. These three gates are lust, anger and greed (kamah, krodhah, lobhah). These three should be abandoned.”Every wrong action has desire or lust as its source. Once we have a desire, we direct our senses and energy to fulfill that desire. Not all desires are fulfilled. When the desire remains unfulfilled, we become angry. And then there is endless greed.Patanjali prescribes five yamas (important) and five niyamas (auxiliary) in Yoga Sutras. When we practice yamas and niyamas, these three gates are closed.The five yamas are: ahimsa (non-violence, satya (truthfulness), asteya (non-stealing), brahmacharya (right use of energy) and aparigraha (non-hoarding). The five niyamas are: saucha (cleanliness), santosha (contentment), tapas (austerity), svadhyaya (study of scriptures) and Isvara Pranidhana (surrender to God).In terms of inquiry, there are two types of seekers. (1) Those who are humble, straightforward and inquisitive. Once they are convinced of the truth, they become champions of that truth. Swami Vivekananda was such as seeker. (2) Those who ask questions without any seriousness. They pretend to be convinced, but they keep asking the same questions again.A spiritual seeker should practice friendliness (Maitri) towards fellow spiritual seekers, practice compassion (Karuna) towards those who are less evolved, practice happiness (Mudita) towards those who are more evolved, and practice a filtering attitude (Upeksha) towards those who may shake his faith.
Verse 5.14 - 5.17We think we are the doers, but we are not There's an old Indian parable about a puppet show. The puppets in the show dance and act based on the strings controlled by the puppeteer. To an observer, it might seem like the puppets are performing the actions, but in reality, it's the puppeteer controlling them. Similarly, we, as individuals, might feel that we are in control of our actions and their outcomes. However, Shri Krishna reminds us that there's a greater cosmic play at work, influenced by the modes of material nature. Just as the puppets are not the real "doers" of their actions, we too are influenced by the gunas of nature. Krishna has said that we should not have a sense of ownership or doership. When it comes to ownership, we know for sure that God is the ultimate owner of everything in the universe. When it comes to doership, the question arises who is the doer? Is God the actual cause of everything that happens in the world? Imagine God was the doer of everything, meaning He is responsible for all our actions. If that was the case, then there would be no possibility of bad actions or imperfect actions because God is perfect. Isn't it? If God was the doer and responsible for all our actions then we would never have to read about dharma, adharma, etc and Krishna would not have felt the need to impart the knowledge of Bhagavad Gita to humankind. Shri Krishna explains that the actual cause of various actions is our guṇas. These are Sattvic (goodness), Rajasic (passion) and Tamasic (ignorance/ badness). Krishna will talk a lot more in detail about the gunas in chapter 14. For now, let us understand that the body is constituted of these gunas, and all actions are performed by these modes of nature. But out of ignorance, we identify with our bodies and think that the body is the doer of actions, which are in fact done by material nature. The Supreme Lord doesn't dictate our actions or decisions. Instead, it's our innate nature, similar to instincts in animals, that drives most of our behaviors. Just as animals are driven by their natural instincts, humans too are influenced by this inherent nature. This nature isn't just external; it's deeply embedded within us, guiding our basic actions like eating, drinking, and forming families. It's not God directing us to act in certain ways; it's this intrinsic nature that's a part of us. Ok, so we are not the doer and God is not the doer. Then who is?

Then clarifying Arjuna's doubts on faith, Krishna continued. “Faith is intrinsic to human beings, which are Sattvic, Rajasic, and Tamasic in nature. People are what their faith is. Accordingly, those in goodness mode worship celestial Gods, the passionate, Yakshas and Rakshasas, and the ignorant worship spirits. Further, people should perform austerities only as ordained by scriptures and not for desire or egotism. Simply tormenting the body and Me, the dweller therein, through attachment-driven austerities exhibit only demonic nature. And same is the case with food, sacrifice, and charity. The virtuous consume juicy, nourishing, and naturally tasty foods that enhance life span, virtue, and heath. However, the passionate like hot, spicy, or sour food that gives only disease and pain, whereas the ignorant consume impure or stale items. Likewise, sacrifices done with conviction and no-expectation are of goodness; those done for material benefits are of passion-mode, while those performed contrary to scriptural principles with no Mantras or offerings are of ignorant mode. Similarly, when people worship the Lord and the revered with cleanliness, celibacy, and non-violence, that becomes the austerity of the body; when words spoken are truthful and kind, it is the austerity of speech; and thoughts, serene and pure, become the austerity of the mind. When practiced by the devout with faith and no expectations of rewards, these become the austerities of goodness. But the one performed for ostentation and public consumption is the austerity of passion that is transitory, whereas the austerity involving harming the self and others is ignorant. Similarly, charity to the worthy at the right time and place, without any consideration, is goodness. However, a reluctantly done charity with expectation is of passion mode, while that made to the unworthy is the charity of ignorance. Further, the term ‘Om Tat Sat' represents the Absolute Truth. Hence people begin all sacred activities like sacrifice by uttering ‘Om,' while the non-seekers of material rewards utter ‘Tat.' And ‘Sat' means goodness and eternity that describes all auspicious and noble activities like charity. But such acts performed without faith become ‘Asat,' worthless for this world and the other.” If you would like to find out more about your chart or have a question about astrology you would love the answer to, please do connect with us at www.astroved.com Follow AstroVed on IG, Twitter, and FB @AstroVed

Join me as I interview Dilek Koksal. Raised in Turkey, Dilek has been a student of Ayurveda since 2015 and is currently a teaching assistant at Maharishi University where she is also a student in the Master's program in Ayurveda. Dilek works in software and has degrees in computer science, finance, and computing. She formerly founded a dance company in San Diego, teaching Middle Eastern dance. She turned to yoga to help heal injuries from dance as well as extend the life of her dance career. She is currently enrolled in an advanced program in Ayurvedic herbology, essentially plant medicine, with Arya Ayruveda, India. Dilek shares: How her family's health conditions impacted her experience of Ayurveda. How Ayurveda and the Transcendental Meditation (TM) technique can help us grieve the loss of close family members. How ancestral karma brought her to her life's purpose, her dharma: to bring health and healing through Ayurvedic herbology.How we can transcend our karma through the regular practice of meditation. The importance of her Ayurvedic teachers and mentors to her journey. How others can more quickly discover their dharma and what it takes to manifest your dreams. How her teachers have opened her to the creative flow of the Universe while teaching her how discipline, action, and hard work are necessary ingredients for accomplishment. The significance of her website www.warriorgoddessayurveda.com - invoking the strength, power and courage of the divine feminine. How it is essential for the Ayurvedic Practitioner to live a life of balance in order for the channel of healing to remain open.

This is a lovely conversation! We're pleased to introduce our dear friend from North England—our Yorkie friend Nicola Nixon! Nicola is finance executive who, very like everyone's favourite adoptive mom, Mrs. Garrett (from the Facts of Life), is a Certified Nutritionist! There is something terribly reassuring for Jo, and Blair, Natalie, and Tootie that the one woman in their life who they can turn to is the lady that manages their diet. When you think about it… it's so incredibly wholesome. Diet is something that every yoga practitioner is passionate about. Whether you're vegetarian, vegan, eating fish or meat, Keto, Paleo, following a Mediterranean Diet, Sattvic, Rajasic, or Tamasic we're obsessed about how we're feeding our bodies to help our health and advance our yoga practice. Nicola Nixon is a mom of two, Yoga Teacher & Ashtangi, Nutritionist (MSc) (ANutr), Yorkshire Gardener, Finance Exec (FCA), and Cancer Survivor. Today we're talking about how diet can heal your body. How important is the microbiome is and how rheumatoid arthritis and cancer, along with a whole host of other disorders, can be influenced for good or ill through dietary choices. We're also talking about some of the themes related to our diet as yoga practitioners as well. What's very special about this episode is that Nicola is speaking not only from an educated point of view, but also from her personal experience. She and her husband made a life long effort to stabilize, if not cure, his rheumatoid arthritis. It's a fascinating story and we believe you will enjoy sitting with us and and learning from Nicola as much as we did!

Depuis 2013, Manuela accompagne des hommes et des femmes sur leur chemin de guérison par l'Ayurvéda. Elle facilite l'accès aux traditions indiennes, plus concrètement au traitement ayurvédique, en travaillant avec plusieurs cliniques dans le Kerala, l'Inde du sud. Chacune des cliniques est choisie avec soin pour s'assurer que la cure corresponde à vos besoins, et que votre expérience soit la plus agréable possible. Dans le contexte actuel de Covid, les voyages ne sont pas forcément évidents, mais pour les personnes qui ont besoin de suivre un panchakarma, il est toujours possible de se rendre un Inde avec un visa médical, pour lequel le médecin ayurvédique envoie un certificat.

These recordings are from live Satsangs at Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi Centre in Melbourne, Australia. Satsang is a Sanskrit term derived from two roots: sat meaning "true'"and sangha meaning community, company or association. It can be translated as "associating with good people" or simply "being in the company of truth," and refers to the act of gathering with Sattvic-minded, uplifting beings, especially spiritual seekers. Satsang is different to any course or lecture because the energy field in it allows for clarity, stillness, and expanded awareness to be experienced by those who seek it. Whenever something increases your awareness of the Truth, it opens your Heart and quiets your mind. Satsang is one of the most effective means of transcending your mind and staying in egoless state which can be called enlightenment, liberation, freedom, moksha, nirvana or simply abiding in Self. We call our satsang lovingly as Bhagavan Satsang as they are all due to his grace, Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi. According to Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi Satsang means only Atma Sang(Association with Self). Those who are trying to be in Self can come in the company of realized beings/Sadhus/Saints/Sages and that is also Satsang. Those who come in the company of Jivanmuktas also become Jivanmuktas. Bhagavan explained the importance of Satsang by quoting Tayumanuvar, Suta Samhita, and Kaivalya Navanitam. Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi is widely thought of as one of the most outstanding Indian spiritual teachers of recent times. Having attained enlightenment at the age of 16, he was drawn to the holy mountain of Arunachala in southern India and remained there for the rest of his life. Arunachala mountain itself is considered to be self manifested Lingam, incarnation of Lord Shiva. Just by looking at it with reverence liberation will happen. Attracted by his stillness, quietness, and teachings, thousands sought his guidance on issues ranging from the nature of God to daily life. The philosophy of Advaita or Non-Duality has become, along with Buddhism, one of the most popular spiritual paths being pursued by those interested in enlightenment today. During the past three decades, Advaita has become more widely recognized in the West through the ever-growing popularity of Ramana Maharshi. His point of view has for its aim Self-realization. The central path taught in this philosophy is the inquiry into the nature of Self, the content of the notional 'I-thought'. Carl Jung wrote of Ramana: “Sri Ramana is a true son of the Indian earth. He is genuine and, in addition to that, something quite phenomenal. In India, he is the whitest spot in a white space. What we find in the life and teachings of Sri Ramana is the purest of India; with its breath of world-liberated and liberating humanity, it is a chant of millenniums.” Om Peace Peace Peace.

This discourse is a continuation from Part 1 of Attaining Mantra Siddhi. Om Swami says the more comfortable the surroundings are in Sadhana, the more the mind will wander. And if you do Sadhana in a difficult environment, your mind will concentrate better. In the Dakṣiṇācāra (Right-hand path), which is the Sattvic path. In this path, it is rather impossible for a man to attain Siddhi, but It's possible for a woman. This is because women have feelings of love. If they are in love, they can sit anywhere and chant and meditate. However, this is not possible for men. If a person is really serious about attaining Siddhi, the truth is that they are not going to get it by sitting at home or an ashram. The probability is very less. You'll mostly only attain it from the place where it belongs. We'll get the learning from the place of origin. This is a truth that is indisputable. Everything will go back to its source. Video Timeline: 0:11 Connection between sadhana and environment 03:19 Story from lord shiv's wedding 05:48 Sounds in OM 8:08 Sadhana and the importance of source Intro and outro animation: Sushree Svadha Om Piano music: Adi Sharma "If there's one thing everyone must gift themselves in their lives, in my humble opinion, is a stint of Himalayan solitude. It is transformational. And until you can do that, just sit in any quiet corner, close your eyes and allow yourself to flow. No thoughts, no thinking, no reflection, just flow like a mountain stream, a gentle breeze, like the murmuring ganges. It's only in that flow that you will discover the source of eternal happiness: silence of the mind." https://os.me/himalayan-silence/ BREATHE / SMILE / LET GO ----------------------- SUBSCRIBE to Om Swami channel for a weekly dose of positive and practical thoughts on life, meditation, spirituality, relationships & more! - https://www.youtube.com/user/omswamitv ----------------------- Want to connect & explore more.
