What began as "Russian Mountains" evolved across Europe, and eventually, found their way to the good ol' U.S. of A... In 1884, one man wanted to use his vast fortune--NO! Not to help anyone!--to keep a recently re-unioned American population from getting too drunk, too horny, and too gambly... So he built himself a roller coaster, and with it, he made even more money (which he did not share), but at least he gave us all the gift of post-mule speeds, and the exhilaration that comes with it! Join us to learn about the FIRST ROLLER COASTER!

Anam Thubten spoke in 2023 at the Philadelphia Shambhala Center.  He emphasized the path of the Bodhisattva.

In this episode, Ethan links a crucial set of instructions from mindfulness meditation teachers of the past regarding how we carry our posture to what it means to show up in this world at a time of chaos. He discusses the instructions on mindfulness meditation from the “warrior” tradition of enlightened society, as well as decoding the qualities of the instruction to maintain a “strong back, and a soft front.” Please support the podcast via Substack and subscribe for free or with small monthly contributions.

De laatste tijd merkte Jonas steeds vaker op dat het christendom terug populairder wordt. De afgelopen decennia trokken jonge spirituele zoekers vooral richting het Oosten maar het tij lijkt te keren. Het christendom is niet langer iets wat je afzweert. Het wordt terug iets waar je je in verdiept.Zo valt het op dat een grote hoeveelheid influencers zich de afgelopen drie jaar plots tot het christendom (be)keerden en daar honderduit over praten in hun YouTube video's en podcasts. Ayan Hirsi Ali, Candace Owens, Russell Brand, George Sanko, Elizabeth Oldfield, Paul Kingsnorth,… het zijn maar enkele namen van figuren met een groot gevolg die hun liefde voor Jezus en de Bijbel publiekelijk uit de doeken doen.Over dit alles ging Jonas dan ook verder in gesprek met theoloog en Bijbelkenner Alain Verheij. In de vorige aflevering focusten ze specifiek op Jordan Peterson. Ze bespraken wat Petersons invloed is op het publieke debat en ze analyseerden zijn jongste boek waarin hij een poging onderneemt om zijn achterban van een bijbeluitleg te voorzien. Maar Peterson is dus zeker niet de enige YouTube goeroe die steeds meer aandacht heeft voor zo'n thema's. Interessant genoeg tref je het zelfs aan onder atheïsten. Een YouTuber als Alex O'Connor is daarvan een goed voorbeeld. O'Connor is een vertegenwoordiger van hedendaags populair atheïsme, maar in tegenstelling tot de vorige generatie (zoals Dawkins, Hitchens, Harris, Dennet), doet hij diepgravende interviews met theologen en exegeten in een poging om een beter begrip te krijgen van het christendom en de Bijbel. Daarenboven is het niet louter een internetfenomeen. Ook offline herleeft de interesse in het christendom. Aan de eettafel tijdens familiefeesten hoorde Jonas enkele jongere neven vertellen over de christelijke influencers die ze volgen. En in gesprekken met vrienden kwamen de laatste maanden erg vaak verhalen aan bod over kennissen die zich terug openstellen voor de christelijke traditie.Genoeg redenen dus om even stil te staan bij de vraag of er op dit moment werkelijk sprake is van een revival van het christendom. En als dat inderdaad zo is, welke maatschappelijke dynamieken zorgen daar dan voor? Hoe moeten we ons tot die dynamieken verhouden? Kunnen we voorkomen dat de Bijbel louter op sloganeske manieren geïnterpreteerd wordt? En zijn het vooral rechtse stemmen die opgang maken of is er ook sprake van heropleving van het christendom aan de linkerkant?-------Voor meer over het werk van Alain, kan je terecht op zijn website: ⁠alainverheij.nl⁠-------'Groetjes uit Shambhala' is een productie van ⁠⁠⁠⁠Volzin⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Jordan Peterson is zonder twijfel één van de belangrijkste YouTube goeroes van net moment. Hij bouwde een enorme schare volgers uit die zijn podcasts beluisteren, de opnames van zijn lezingen bekijken en zijn boeken lezen. Die volgers werden grotendeels aangetrokken door een combinatie van zijn vereenvoudigde Jungiaanse psychologie, zijn grootse maatschappijanalyses, zijn schijnbaar filosofisch inzicht, zijn conservatieve gendervisie en zijn praktische zelfhulptips om je leven op orde te krijgen. De laatste jaren kwamen daar ook nog eens expliciete (extreem)rechtse politieke overtuigingen bij.Zijn filmpjes werden over de hele wereld miljoenen keren bekeken en op zijn lezingentours krijgt hij Ahoi in Amsterdam en Vorst Nationaal in Brussel vol. Peterson heeft dan ook een grote impact op de levenvisie en de spiritualiteit van veel jonge mensen. En toch is hij niet algemeen bekend bij het brede publiek. Het leek dan ook een goed idee om er een aflevering van Groetjes uit Shambhala aan te spenderen. Vooral ook omdat hij in zijn jongste boek (Wij die worstelen met God) zijn ideeën verwerkt in een uitvoerige Bijbeluitleg.Om het werk van Peterson wat grondiger onder de loep te nemen, klopte Jonas aan bij theoloog en Bijbelkenner Alain Verheij die zijn boek voor Nederlands Dagblad recenseerde. Hoe moeten we de man precies kaderen? Waarom heeft hij plots zo'n interesse in Bijbel en christendom? Waar komt zijn grote interesse in de Bijbel vandaan? En bevat zijn boek een zinnige interpretatie van de oude verhalen of gaat hij eerder in het wilde weg orakelen voor zijn achterban?Dit gesprek met Alain wordt in twee delen online gezet. De wijze waarop Peterson het publieke debat over religie beïnvloed en een analyse van zijn nieuwste boek staat centraal in het eerste deel. In het tweede deel gaan ze dieper in op de bredere context die van belang is om te begrijpen waarom dit boek gepubliceerd werd. Er lijkt immers sprake te zijn van een bredere revival van het christendom, want Peterson is zeker niet de enige die plots veel aandacht voor de Bijbel heeft. Zowel aan de rechter- als de linkerkant van het politieke spectrum krijgen verschillende christelijke influencers een groot gevolg. Er is dus een duidelijke interesse merkbaar bij een breed publiek, en zeker ook onder jongeren. Welke maatschappelijke dynamieken daar voor zorgen en hoe we ons tot deze tendensen kunnen verhouden is dan ook voer voor de volgende aflevering.Dit tweede deel komt er binnenkort aan. Abonneer je dus in je favoriete podcastapp om op de hoogte te blijven.-------Afbeelding: een schilderij van Frans Floris dat Kaïn en Abel weergeeft.

The Smalltown DJs, Pete Emes & Mike Grimes, arose from hip-hop block parties, DIY punk rock shows and the early days of rave they loved so much. They make bass-heavy house music, combining the spirit of Canada's outdoor electronic music festivals like Shambhala & Bass Coast, with the sound they developed running their own now legendary Hifi Club in Calgary, Alberta.

Podcast: This week on the show we feature a pre-recorded conversation with Roger Jackson, author of Saraha – Poet of Blissful Awareness, published this year by Shambhala as part of its Lives of the Masters series. Saraha, “the Archer,” was a mysterious but influential tenth-century Indian Buddhist tantric adept who expressed his spiritual realization in mystic songs (dohas) that are enlightening, shocking, and confounding by turns. Saraha's poetic verses served as a basis for the exposition, in Tibet, of mahamudra, the great-seal meditation on the nature of mind that permeates every tradition of Buddhism on the Tibetan plateau. This is the first book to attempt a thorough treatment of the context, life, works, poetics, and teachings of Saraha. Roger Jackson is Professor Emeritus of Asian Studies and Religion at Carleton College. He has nearly 50 years of experience with the study and practice of Buddhism, particularly in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. His special interests include Indian and Tibetan Buddhist philosophy, meditation, and ritual; Buddhist religious poetry; religion and society in Sri Lanka; the study of mysticism; and contemporary Buddhist thought. Roger is a highly respected and beloved scholar, Dharma teacher, and writer. He has authored many scholarly books and articles, and is a frequent contributor to Lion's Roar, Buddhadharma, and Tricycle magazines.

The life and works of the mysterious Indian yogin, Saraha, who has inspired Buddhist practitioners for over a thousand years. Saraha, “the Archer,” was a mysterious but influential tenth-century Indian Buddhist tantric adept who expressed his spiritual realization in mystic songs (dohās) that are enlightening, shocking, and confounding by turns.  Saraha: Poet of Blissful Awareness (Shambhala, 2024) is the first book to attempt a thorough treatment of the context, life, works, poetics, and teachings of Saraha. It features a search for the “historical” Saraha through evidence provided by our knowledge of the medieval Indian context in which he likely lived, the biographical legends that grew up around him in Tibet, and the works attributed to him in Indic and Tibetan text collections; a consideration of the various guises in which Saraha appears in his writings (as poet, social and religious critic, radical gnostic thinker, and more); an overview of Saraha's poetic and religious legacy in South Asia and beyond; and complete or partial translations, from Tibetan, of over two dozen works attributed to Saraha. These include nearly all his spiritual songs, from his well-known Dohā Trilogy to obscure but important expositions of mahāmudrā, as well as several previously untranslated works.

Hollow Earth – Part Two Episode Description: In Part 2 of our Hollow Earth deep dive, we move beyond the theories and history into the wildest and most mind-bending claims of all. Who (or what) is living down there? Are we talking giants, dinosaurs, or even entire civilizations with advanced technology? We explore modern claims, conspiracy theories about government suppression, and bizarre expeditions that sought to "prove" Hollow Earth is real. If you thought Part 1 was wild, Part 2 takes it to an entirely new level. Episode Highlights: Giants in Hollow Earth — Hopi legends, the Book of Enoch's Nephilim, and Native American tales of underground red-haired giants. Dinosaurs Underground? — From “The Lost World” to modern cryptid sightings, we look at theories about prehistoric creatures surviving in underground ecosystems.

The life and works of the mysterious Indian yogin, Saraha, who has inspired Buddhist practitioners for over a thousand years. Saraha, “the Archer,” was a mysterious but influential tenth-century Indian Buddhist tantric adept who expressed his spiritual realization in mystic songs (dohās) that are enlightening, shocking, and confounding by turns.  Saraha: Poet of Blissful Awareness (Shambhala, 2024) is the first book to attempt a thorough treatment of the context, life, works, poetics, and teachings of Saraha. It features a search for the “historical” Saraha through evidence provided by our knowledge of the medieval Indian context in which he likely lived, the biographical legends that grew up around him in Tibet, and the works attributed to him in Indic and Tibetan text collections; a consideration of the various guises in which Saraha appears in his writings (as poet, social and religious critic, radical gnostic thinker, and more); an overview of Saraha's poetic and religious legacy in South Asia and beyond; and complete or partial translations, from Tibetan, of over two dozen works attributed to Saraha. These include nearly all his spiritual songs, from his well-known Dohā Trilogy to obscure but important expositions of mahāmudrā, as well as several previously untranslated works.

Most of the questions I get asked while traveling revolve around my writing process or publishing journey. So, in this episode, I share my life-altering journey, explaining how a personal health challenge led me to discover Ayurveda and inspired me to write books to spread its wisdom. So, whether you dream of writing a book, are busy working on one, or are curious about the writing and publishing process, this episode is a must-listen.Join me. You may even find the spark to turn your writing ideas into reality!My Health Struggles When I was 20, I traveled to India, eager for adventure, but my health was a mess. I dealt with parasites, a weakened immune system, and gut issues and took antibiotics like Flagyl, which wrecked my digestive system. After I returned to India to seek treatment, a doctor in Mysore introduced me to the ancient Ayurvedic healing system.The Ayurvedic ExperienceI underwent Panchakarma, a powerful Ayurvedic detox that included oil rubdowns, milk pours, enemas, and a simple Kitchari diet. The experience was intense but transformative. It gave me a deeper understanding of Ayurveda and sparked my curiosity to learn more.Combining Yoga and AyurvedaI spent time teaching yoga and Ayurveda, balancing my time between India and the U.S. I started sharing simple Ayurvedic practices with my students, like tongue scraping and drinking hot water. I also noticed how confused many people were about food, so I wrote a cookbook.The Everyday Ayurveda CookbookWhen an editor from Shambhala Publications contacted me, I knew it was time to turn my ideas into a book. So, I wrote The Everyday Ayurveda Cookbook. It contains simple, seasonal recipes to help people understand how food can be medicine. The Publishing JourneyThe publishing process was not easy. It involved testing recipes, balancing the Ayurvedic philosophy, and ensuring it was user-friendly and accessible. I worked closely with a designer to create a visually appealing and informative book. The cookbook came out in 2015, and in 2025, I will release a 10th-anniversary edition of The Everyday Ayurveda Cookbook, with new recipes and a foreword by Amadeo Morning Star. Mind-Body Connection and the Second BookAs I continued working with people, I realized how much the mind influences our health and food choices. That led me to write my second book, Everyday Ayurvedic Cooking for a Calm, Clear Mind, about how Ayurveda can help us create mental calm and clarity, which supports our overall well-being.Writing in IndiaWhen in India, I have more time to write as there are fewer distractions. I get a lot of inspiration in India, especially from local food markets and healthy restaurants.The Struggles of Writing the Front MatterWriting the front matter for Calm, Clear Mind took me a year. Writing about the mind is tricky, complex, and often murky. I worked closely with my partner, Rich, who has experience with psychological work, to ensure the language was non-judgmental. Research and Inspiration from TextsI could not find many Ayurvedic resources on the mind, so I dug deep into texts like the Bhagavad Gita, which explores the connection between food and the mind. After extensive research, I also found insights from various yogic and Vedic texts that shaped my approach to writing about the mind.The Challenge of PublishingPublishing with Shambhala has been a rewarding experience for me. The vulnerability of handing over my work for the first time was a huge emotional challenge, but working with a trustworthy publisher made things easier. I published all four of my books with them because I trust their artistic vision and respect...

How can we continue to stretch our sense of loving-kindness to include all beings?In this talk, Dave Richo explores the practice of loving-kindness (metta) in Buddhism, emphasizing its expansive nature. Using an analogy from Romeo and Juliet, Dave explains that love is boundless, reaching beyond our immediate relationships to encompass all beings. He introduces the concept of concentric circles, where love radiates from ourselves to our close ones, those we are neutral toward, marginalized individuals, and even those we struggle with, eventually encompassing all beings. The core idea is that as we give love, it grows in abundance, benefiting both us and others.Dave encourages us to include in our loving-kindness practice:Self-love: Starting with extending kindness to ourselves, as we can't offer to others what we don't have.Expanding circles: Extending love outward from family and friends to neighbors, marginalized groups, and enemies.Compassion for all beings: Wishing well even to those who harm us, recognizing that everyone seeks happiness and is capable of transformation. By cultivating this mindset daily, we can contribute to a more just, peaceful, and loving world.______________David Richo, Ph.D., is a psychotherapist, writer, and workshop leader. He shares his time between Santa Barbara and San Francisco, California. Dave combines psychological and spiritual perspectives in his work. His latest book is "Ready: How to Know When to Go and When to Stay." (Shambhala, 2022).

Wir springen in dieser Folge ins Jahr 1868, als in Paris Alexandra David zur Welt kommt. Unangepasst, ausgestattet mit reichlich Wissensdurst und wenig Liebe zum bürgerlichen Leben, wird sie sich stattdessen dem Studium des Buddhismus widmen. Ihre Reiselust wird sie durch große Teile Asiens führen und ihre Hartnäckigkeit schließlich bis zum Dach der Welt. Aber nicht nur das: im Laufe ihrer beinahe 101 Jahre wird sie auch zur Feministin, Anarchistin, Opernsängerin, Tibetologin und mit über dreißig veröffentlichen Büchern erfolgreiche Autorin. //Literatur - Barbara M.
