This is bhakti, how The Lord can become one's little child and drink breast milk from the mother. And our ācāryas say, "Yes, Nanda Mahārāja was very fortunate. He became the father of Kṛṣṇa, but Yaśodā is the most fortunate because Kṛṣṇa never left her. He was with her 24 hours a day as a child. No one was closer to Kṛṣṇa than Yaśodā." In the same section of the Bhāgavatam, we hear the admonition that was much repeated by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu and His teachings. When He went to South India, He talked to Veṅkaṭa Bhaṭṭa. Veṅkaṭa Bhaṭṭa was in the Rāmānuja-sampradāya, the Śrī-Sampradāya, and they were having a discussion—Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Veṅkaṭa Bhaṭṭa, the great ācārya there. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu was telling him, "Actually, Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, you worship as Lord Nārāyaṇa." So Veṅkaṭa wanted to know, "Well, how can you say He's the Supreme Personality of Godhead?" And Caitanya Mahāprabhu asked him, "How is it that the consort of Lord Nārāyaṇa came to Vṛndāvana and performed severe austerities to enter into the rāsa dance?" And Veṅkaṭa Bhaṭṭa said, "You please tell me." It's because the quality of devotion in Vṛndāvana is topmost. There is no more intimate relationship between Kṛṣṇa and His devotees than in Śrī Vṛndāvana, and of all the devotees, Mother Yaśodā has the most intimate connection with Kṛṣṇa in His childhood. And therefore Śukadeva Gosvāmī says: "nāyaṁ sukhāpo bhagavān dehināṁ gopikā-sutaḥ jñānināṁ cātma-bhūtānāṁ yathā bhaktimatām iha (SB 10.9.21)." And this is the verse quoted by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu to Veṅkaṭa Bhaṭṭa from the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. There are many approaches. One may try to cultivate knowledge to understand God; one may perform yoga, haṭha Yoga, aṣṭāṅga Yoga; one may be a karmī, trying to position oneself in the material world in such a way as to have the best of everything. And Śukadev says, "None of these ways will attract Kṛṣṇa. Only simple bhakti will. "Nāyaṁ sukhāpo bhagavān dehināṁ gopikā-sutaḥ jñānināṁ cātma-bhūtānāṁ yathā bhaktimatām iha." In this world, only by bhakti, following in the footsteps of the residents of Vṛndāvana,... This is later written by Rūpa Gosvāmī, the process of devotional service: "tan-nāma-rūpa-caritādi-sukīrtanānu- smṛtyoḥ krameṇa rasanā-manasī niyojya tiṣṭhan vraje tad-anurāgī-janānugāmī kālaṁ nayed akhilaṁ ity upadeśa-sāram (NOI 8)." He said, "This is the essence of all advice. One should take to the practice of hearing, chanting, and remembering, etc. Śravaṇam, kīrtanaṁ Viṣṇu, smaraṇaṁ, pāda-sevanaṁ, arcanaṁ, vandanaṁ, dāsyaṁ, sakhyaṁ, ātma-nivedanam —the nine processes of devotional service continuously. Then one will come to appreciate the devotional service of the residents of Vṛndāvana." And when one develops this appreciation for the devotion of the devotees in Vṛndāvana, one may become intrigued by that. This is the beginning of one's relationship with Kṛṣṇa in a particular mood. This cannot be artificially stimulated. It comes only by copious hearing over many lifetimes to come to this position of bhakti. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------

Timeless Conversation: Living Yoga in the Lineage of Krishnamacharya with R. Sriram

The Heart of Yoga

What happens when someone born inside the culture of Yoga meets the modern world with eyes wide open? This timeless conversation with my Gurubhai, R. Sriram, originally recorded five years ago, is as alive and necessary now as it was then. Sriram grew up in South India, surrounded by music, temples, and traditional values. He also experienced Catholic schooling, English literature, radical theater, and many layers of spiritual and political questioning. This is a deeply personal account of growing up in the very society that Krishnamacharya and Desikachar came from, while still struggling to feel at home in it. We talk about what it means to be indigenous to this tradition, and how Sriram's life became a bridge between ancient learning and modern experience. When he met Desikachar in the late 1970s, he didn't just begin to study Yoga. He entered a relationship that helped him live through the emotional and cultural complexity of his own story. Breath, practice, and shared understanding gave him a way to continue, to grow, and to teach. That path eventually took him to Germany, where he has taught since 1988 alongside his wife, the Indian classical dancer Anjali Sriram. This conversation is a reminder that the teacher-student relationship is about being seen. It is about friendship, sincerity, and learning to live with all parts of who we are. Key Takeaways A Life Inside the Tradition – Sriram shares firsthand memories of growing up in the same world that Krishnamacharya and Desikachar belonged to. Holding the Whole – His life shows how Yoga supported him through family customs, academic pressure, spiritual curiosity, and social questions. Desikachar's Openness – Sriram remembers how Desikachar welcomed real people with real conflicts and questions. Voice and Breath – Chanting became a way to connect with his roots, express devotion, and care for his inner life. Ongoing Search – This story speaks to anyone asking how to live in two worlds, and how to find peace without needing to erase anything. Yoga in a New Culture – Sriram reflects on decades of teaching in Germany, how people first reacted to Yoga, and how that has shifted over time. Where to Find Our Guest R.

Send us a textVenture into the dynamic world of crypto art and NFTs with Eli Scheinman, whose journey from skepticism to passionate advocate offers fresh perspectives on digital ownership and creativity.Eli's story begins with healthy doubt – finding NFTs both "crazy" and "absurd" – yet these very qualities sparked a curiosity that led him deep into the blockchain art ecosystem. Unlike traditional collectors with lifelong habits, Eli approached the space with fresh eyes, drawn not to collectability but to the revolutionary creative canvas blockchain technology offers artists and creators.The conversation takes a particularly meaningful turn when discussing the human element of Web3. "The best things in Web3 for me are the relationships," Eli shares, highlighting an intriguing paradox where digital objects become the connective tissue for profound real-world connections. For adults who typically struggle to form diverse new friendships, the Web3 community has facilitated connections across geographical, professional, and cultural boundaries in ways traditional social structures rarely achieve.Looking toward the future, Eli offers a measured perspective on adoption timelines, suggesting that while five years might not show dramatic shifts in the collector landscape, the 10-20 year horizon will likely reveal substantial evolution as digital-native generations gain purchasing power. His market insights cut through typical hype cycles with practical wisdom: "Demand matters more than supply," he notes, explaining why established artists can expand their output while emerging creators must be more strategic.Beyond crypto discourse, Eli's fascinating life experiences enrich the discussion – from a solo bicycle journey from Vancouver to Mexico followed by months working on a Hawaiian farm, to meaningful time spent with seed savers of heirloom rice in rural South India. These adventures have shaped his minimalist collecting philosophy, where meaningful connection trumps accumulation.Whether you're a seasoned collector, curious creator, or simply interested in how technology shapes culture and community, this episode offers valuable perspectives on the human connections forming at the intersection of art and technology.https://x.com/eli_scheinSupport the show

The first section was, 'Change the channel, change your life.'" We talked about why we are where we are now: it's because of what we've been listening to, what we've been reading—the sound that we're allowing to come into our mind and our heart. So, how do I get into this most intimate of services, a connection with a pure devotee, Śrīla Prabhupāda, under whom I've taken shelter in this Krishna Consciousness Movement? How do I do it? How? It sounds okay—maybe it's for others, maybe not me. Page by page, reading Śrīla Prabhupāda's books every day is a prerequisite for knowing him and for advancing in spiritual life. So, we actually have to make voluntary life changes. We call this the VLCs. You are human, you can decide; you make the voluntary life change because you're the agent of your own improvement. Here are the two elements that are necessary: knowledge and practice, that will move you to your destination. Remember that nobody—there's no soul that's permanently unqualified. Everyone can rise in due course of time. And remember, even if you're inept, even if you're not very good at it, at least show up, because there's magic in just being there for the reading. So here's one of the obstacles. After we've surveyed many devotees around the world and asked them, "What's the main obstacle?" The answer is, "I don't have time." Here's breaking news for those of you who may be missing it: it's not time we lack, it's taste, and we only get a taste by taking time. This unlocks and disposes off this particular obstacle that "I don't have time." We already found out we all have 24 hours, at least the ones we interviewed. It may be different in Iceland or something, but we all get the same amount of time. So, it's not time; it's taste. Why do some people read more than others? Because they have a taste for it. How do you get a taste? You have to take the time. So you have to budget some time to start. Another common thought is, "I can't understand Śrīla Prabhupāda's books." Śrīla Prabhupāda said he couldn't understand his guru when he first heard him, but he stayed. That's the reason Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta noticed him at his initiation. Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta said, "I marked him. He likes to hear. He does not go away." So if you want to be recognized, you could stay there and listen. There was a brāhmaṇa in South India that Caitanya Mahāprabhu met, who was every day reading the Bhagavad-gītā, but he couldn't read. He just did the best he could; he hacked away at it, and everyone was laughing at him. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu saw that this brāhmaṇa was crying when he was reading, and He asked him, "Why are you crying?" And he said, "My guru told me to read this every day, but I can't read." He said, "Then, why are you crying?" He said, "Because I think of Krishna when I'm doing this, that He drove the chariot for Arjuna, and He's so kind to His devotee, so I can't help but cry when I think of Krishna and holding this Gītā and trying to read it. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu took that brāhmaṇa with Him. He said, "You've actually understood the Bhagavad-gītā." You don't have to be a great scholar or a Sanskritist. You just have to have a little sincerity and try to read Prabhupāda's books. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------

Send us a textMonique Kemp's world turned upside down when her unborn son was diagnosed with an interrupted aortic arch at seven months of pregnancy. What followed was a harrowing journey through six open-heart surgeries, months of hospitalization, and the birth of something unexpected – a powerful vision for supporting other families facing similar challenges.From those early days sitting beside her newborn's hospital bed to founding Heart of Hope-Cape Town, Monique shares with raw honesty how she transformed her personal pain into purpose. Her support group, now running for 12 years, fills a critical gap she identified during those long hospital stays – medical staff trained to heal bodies, not necessarily to hold space for parents' emotional trauma.The conversation takes a dramatic turn when Monique reveals how her maternal instinct potentially saved her son's life. As Daniel entered his teen years, his complaints of pain were repeatedly dismissed as psychological by doctors who had known him since infancy. Only after switching to a new pediatrician did they discover his heart conduit had grown down into his stomach, displacing organs and causing genuine physical distress. This experience highlights a dangerous blind spot in CHD care–the critical transition period between ages 10-21 when patients are most likely to fall through the cracks.Perhaps most eye-opening is Monique's perspective on global CHD care disparities, comparing attitudes toward heart interventions between North and South India, and advocating passionately for what the CHD community needs most: to become "one voice" as prominent as the condition itself, which remains the number one birth defect worldwide.Whether you're a heart parent seeking community, a medical professional wanting deeper insight into patient experiences, or simply someone interested in how personal tragedy can transform into powerful advocacy, this conversation will leave you understanding why the CHD journey requires both medical expertise and emotional support that only other heart families can truly provide.Links Mentioned in the Episode:Top 20 Congenital Podcasts: https://podcast.feedspot.com/congenital_disorders_podcastsBaby Hearts Press: https://www.babyheartspress.comSupport the showAnna's Buzzsprout Affiliate LinkBaby Blue Sound CollectiveSocial Media Pages:Apple PodcastsFacebookInstagramMeWeTwitterYouTubeWebsite

Discover the story of the critically endangered humpback mahseer (Tor remadevii), a keystone and iconic fish species endemic to the Cauvery River and protected within the Cauvery Wildlife Sanctuary. This episode highlights the urgent need for fish conservation, biodiversity management, and sustainable engagement with river ecology in the face of rising threats to freshwater ecosystems.Founded in 1972—the same year India enacted its Wildlife Protection Act—WASI is one of Karnataka's oldest conservation organizations. While much of India's conservation history has centered on charismatic megafauna like tigers and elephants, WASI pioneered efforts to protect aquatic life, emphasizing the overlooked yet vital role of river systems. The humpback mahseer, often growing over five feet in length and weighing up to 50 kg, is not only ecologically important but holds deep cultural and mythological significance in Karnataka, with temple sanctuaries along the Cauvery River historically offering it protection.Sandeep explores how the health of the Cauvery River ecosystem is intrinsically tied to the survival of the mahseer. These fish require clean, oxygen-rich, fast-flowing waters for spawning and survival, making them a natural indicator of freshwater integrity. As dams fragment habitats and pollution disrupts flow regimes, the mahseer's survival becomes a symbol of broader freshwater conservation challenges.In this conversation, Sandeep outlines WASI's innovative three-pronged conservation strategy. The first is rigorous scientific research—including telemetry tracking, habitat mapping using drones and GIS, and an in-situ breeding program for the endangered humpback mahseer. Second, WASI physically protects stretches of the Cauvery by leasing river sections from the Fisheries Department—not for fishing, but for conservation. These stretches are patrolled to prevent poaching, dynamite fishing, and other destructive practices. Third, WASI has established a unique self-sustaining model: issuing catch-and-release angling licenses. Revenue from this ethical angling supports research, anti-poaching patrols, and community outreach, making conservation both participatory and economically viable.Importantly, this episode also touches on how catch-and-release practices are regulated with strict guidelines to minimize stress and injury to fish. From handling protocols to photographic limits and de-hooking tools, WASI's best practices ensure that angling becomes a force for conservation rather than exploitation.Listeners will also learn about the threats facing the humpback mahseer, such as declining water levels, hybridization with other mahseer species, habitat degradation, and the introduction of invasive species like grass carp. The episode details WASI's efforts to create India's first comprehensive management plans for aquatic sanctuaries—filling a critical gap in freshwater biodiversity conservation.Sandeep also emphasizes the critical role of public awareness and local engagement. From school and college volunteers conducting telemetry fieldwork to social media campaigns and community outreach with fishing communities, WASI's approach is deeply collaborative. Listeners passionate about wild Karnataka and namma Karnataka's rivers will find practical ways to get involved—whether through volunteering, spreading awareness, or supporting evidence-based river conservation.This conversation reminds us that beneath the surface of India's rivers lies an invisible world teeming with life, and that biodiversity conservation must include all species, from the tiger to the tiniest fish. Protecting the humpback mahseer is not just about saving one species; it's about restoring entire ecosystems, cultural heritage, and sustainable coexistence with nature.Watch now to understand why river biodiversity matters, and how one organization is making a big impact in the waters of South India.

What do anthropologists do when they compare, what do people do when they compare? Professor Soumhya Venkatesan shows how comparison produces meaning, including fresh ways of understanding the world and making particular projects worthwhile by way of contrast. Equally, she asks: when does comparison stop being helpful? When might greater insights be gained by staying with things? She will think through these questions ethnographically as well as synthetically, the latter mainly by focusing on decolonisation and its aspirational reach. Soumhya Venkatesan is Professor of Social Anthropology at the University of Manchester. She is the author of Decolonizing Anthropology: An Introduction (2024, Polity). She has conducted ethnographic fieldwork in South India among Muslim weavers and Hindu priests, and in England among freedom-loving Brexiteers and pub philosophers. Venkatesan's keynote lecture was recorded on June 16, 2025 in Helsinki at the conference organized by the Finnish Anthropological Society.

For the Love of Yoga with Nish the Fish

We recorded this some time back and its not as comprehensive as I would have liked it to be (lineage is such a rich and sprawling conversation, after all) so I never posted it but inspired by the conversations in the Discord this morning, I felt that this reflection would be good to have!There is some debate as to whether Macchanda, the founder of the Kaula lineage (who along with his consort and 12 children probably taught around 6-8th CE) is the same as the legendary Matsyendranatha who founded the Hatha Yoga tradition and who taught around the 12th or 13th CE. These are siddhas so they can live forever and materialize any body at any time for any reason, so dating can be a little complex! But there is no doubt that even if they are two different lineage founders that the Nath Sampradaya is included in the Kaula marga! Sri Ramakrishna inherits this lineage from both Kedarama Bhattacharyaji, who initiated him into the Kali mantra and also from Bhairavi Brahmani, who iniated him into the Kaula marga. Both Bhairavi Brahmani and also the legendary Macchanda, are said to have come from Assam. Whereas Konkanamba, by her name must have come from Maharasthra and Matsyendranath but especially Gorakshanath are perhaps from South India. By some accounts, Abhinava Gupta's guru Sambhunatha came from South India and Jnanetra Natha who founds the the Krama/Kali-Kula might have come from Jalandhara and been initiated by Kali herself in the form of the Yogini Mangala Devi in Oddiyana, in the swat valley! So what we get is a sort of Pan-Indian Kaula movement!You might enjoy Śani Deva's beautiful lineage tree which is part of the "community cheat sheet" he's working on!Support the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and Friday 10am PST and again Friday at 6pm PST.Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM

The discussion examined the indigenous evolution of cultures in peninsular India, challenging the ‘north-centric gaze' on its history. While Megaliths – large stones used to construct a structure or monument – are generally associated with the Iron Age, the exact origins of the Megalithic tradition are shrouded in mystery. Senior archaeologist Ravi Korisettar – honorary director at the Robert Bruce Foote Sangankallu Archaeological Museum – hinted during the event that its antecedents could be found in the ‘Southern Neolithic' period; an era characterised by ash-mounds, grinding and polished tools, and Black and Red Ware pottery.----more----Read full article here: https://theprint.in/opinion/south-india-is-the-missing-link-to-our-megalithic-past-and-it-shows-history-isnt-linear/2562428/

The Other Rāma (SUNY Press, 2020) presents a systematic analysis of the myth cycle of Paraśurāma ("Rāma with the Axe"), an avatára of Viṣṇu best known for decapitating his own mother and annihilating twenty-one generations of the Katriya warrior caste in an extermination campaign frequently referred to as "genocide" by modern scholars. Compared to Rāma and Ka, the other human forms of Viṣṇu, Paraśurāma has a much darker reputation, with few temples devoted to him and scant worshippers. He has also attracted far less scholarly attention. But dozens of important castes and clans across the subcontinent claim Paraśurāma as the originator of their bloodline, and his mother, Reukā, is worshipped in the form of a severed head throughout South India. Using the tools of comparative mythology and psychoanalysis, Brian Collins identifies three major motifs in the mythology of Paraśurāma: his hybrid status as a Brahmin warrior, his act of matricide, and his bloody one-man war to cleanse the earth of Katriyas. Collins considers a wide variety of representations of the myth, from its origins in the Mahābhārata to contemporary debates online. He also examines Paraśurāma alongside the Wandering Jew of European legend and Psycho's matricidal serial killer Norman Bates. He examines why mythmakers once elevated this transgressive and antisocial figure to the level of an avatāra and why he still holds such fascination for a world that continues to grapple with mass killings and violence against women.

Scene by scene, histories of holy sites, portraits that incorporate historical figures into mythic landscapes, and Tamil and Telugu inscriptions that evoke the imagined topographies of devotional poetry unfold before the mobile spectator. Body, History, Myth reconceives the relationship between art and devotion in South India by describing how the extraordinary sensory experience of a viewing body in motion unfurls a sacred narrative exquisitely designed to teach, impress, and inspire. Anna Lise Seastrand offers new insights into the arts of early modern southern India, bringing to life one of the most culturally vibrant yet least understood periods in Indian art. She shows how temple visitors become active participants in the paintings through their somatic engagement with visual stories and devotional landscapes. Seastrand highlights the significance of textuality in early modern South Asia by examining the status of professional scribes and the prominence given to authorship of religious literature and art. Her insights are presented alongside new translations of the texts that accompany mural paintings. Featuring a wealth of stunning images published here for the first time, Body, History, Myth: Early Modern Murals in South India (Princeton UP, 2024) provides a multidimensional reading of temple art that fundamentally reframes the artistic, intellectual, religious, and political histories of early modern India.
