This duck hunting podcast episode dives into a real, in-the-field case study on retriever steadiness, breaking, and handler discipline. Host Tyler goes “Mattless and Jeff-less” and brings back Aaron Joos of Red Cedar Retrievers (Western Wisconsin) to unpack a quick early-season goose hunt with Nala, his 4.5-year-old Labrador with a Senior Hunter title. We walk through what triggered a break on geese, what corrections worked, why geese are “kryptonite” for some dogs, and how to build steadiness in real hunting conditions—dog blinds vs. stands, using a “sit” shot call, running one shell to force control, and choosing handler-first decisions over pulling the trigger. If you run labs for ducks or geese, train for hunt tests, or just want a steady, family-friendly gun dog that turns it on in the field, this conversation is packed with practical, hunt-day fixes you can use on opening morning. We also touch on balancing field performance with off-season training, troubleshooting with other dogs in the spread, and setting up controlled reps that translate to live birds.

Go For Steadiness In Chanting First, Not Taste | HG Vaisesika Dasa | 22 Aug 2025

Following the advice of Rūpa Goswāmī and Kṛṣṇa in the Bhagavad-gītā, we can understand that we have to be consistent in chanting to begin with. We must use our intelligence. Kṛṣṇa says, "Conquer the lower self by the intelligence." So, when we're clear that this is medicinal and we have to trust that the doctor is qualified, then we can practice chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa for consistency. And here are just a few points. One is being professional. Professionals show up no matter what, not when they feel like it; otherwise, that person will be fired. So, for your japa and practice of japa, go for steadiness, not taste. Be very, very patient over the years to show up for your japa based on your intelligence and practice a lot. Those who learn to play the mṛdaṅga, who mess around, who don't take a teacher, who don't practice the rudiments, end up playing a sloppy mridanga, or concocting. I mean, if they're playing devotionally, there's no harm in it, but they end up slapping it in weird ways that disturbs the kīrtana rather than help it move along. And if we don't practice carefully—and practice means correct practice—and that means practicing again and again, even if out of 16 rounds, we can only hear one mantra, at least you hear one mantra. That can change everything. But we have to be patient. We have to practice a lot and keep showing up again and again. And we have to have determination of Rukmiṇī Devī. As I mentioned yesterday, she told Kṛṣṇa (SB 10.52.44), "yasyāṅghri-paṅkaja-rajaḥ-snapanaṁ mahānto vāñchanty umā-patir ivātma-tamo-'pahatyai yarhy ambujākṣa na labheya bhavat-prasādaṁ jahyām asūn vrata-kṛśān śata-janmabhiḥ syāt" I'm prepared to do this for hundreds of lifetimes if that's required." That is sheer determination. That's sadhana bhakti. It's not, "I'm not getting enough juice. I don't feel the bhāva. Therefore, this must not work. I quit. I'll go scroll on the internet instead." Don't do that. Be very professional. Show up for your japa. Be determined. If you don't get anything, then be prepared to give up this body and start over again in the next life and do it again. That's what Rukmiṇī says. She said, "If I can't have you as my husband in this life, I'll perform such severe austerities that I'll give up my body. In my next life, I'll do it again until you consent that you're going to marry me." So we have to be like that in sādhana-bhakti. Sādhana-bhakti is not messing around. It's very serious. So the place to be really serious is with our japa. Come as a pro. Do your work, bring your lunch box, and stay for the long term. And if you do that over many, many lifetimes, then maybe hear one mantra and realize that Kṛṣṇa and his name are not different. If we have that, then we have a joyful life dedicated to chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. ------------------------------------------------------------ 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/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------

The conversation explores how low traits manifest differently than their high counterparts, challenging the assumption that “high is better.” Using personality models like Gretchen Rubin's Four Tendencies and the Enneagram, Victoria draws rich comparisons to deepen understanding.

Without spiritual strength, we can't maintain niṣṭha or steadiness in practice. So to this end two points about practice. One is it's really hard to make it up at the last minute. Sometimes people become serious about Kṛṣṇa consciousness, but they're, of course, Khaṭvāṅga Mahārāja is an example. Even at the last minute, you can, you should try, and you can do it. But generally, if you try to pass a test at the last minute by studying the night before, it's very difficult, because it takes time to develop momentum, to have spiritual strength or acumen in any particular subject. So don't try to make it up at the last minute, because we've seen people near death, and then they say, I'd like to do it, but I don't have the yoga-balena, I don't have the spiritual strength. So remember that your practice is giving you the spiritual strength now so that you'll be prepared especially for death. Because you have to be able to be strong when you leave this body in order to attain the destination that requires niṣṭha, steadiness in the practice. And we get that through sāṅkhya-pūrvaka, which means numerical strength. So you have to be consistent and keep a certain number every day, can't fluctuate. So even if you start small, then keep that number and don't go below. And then gradually, when you feel spiritual strength, you climb the ladder, take the next steps, and take a higher number according to your qualification at that point. And then keep it. And if you stay there, and you keep that practice going, and arrange everything around that then you come to the stage of niṣṭha. And It's important also to remember that taste comes later, because oftentimes people say, I don't have any taste for this, but don't worry about that. Now worry about niṣṭha or steadiness. Now let your taste be in niṣṭha or steadiness, not in yugāyitaṁ nimeṣeṇa, that I'm feeling one moment to be like 12 years or more, where the tears are flowing from my eyes. That comes of its own accord, that comes as a descending process from Kṛṣṇa. He awards that to those who have attained niṣṭha. So have a taste for steadiness, and that comes from having a sense of duty. There's there is taste in doing one's duty that I'm doing this for a higher cause. You can get a taste from that. So get your taste in niṣṭha and duty. Don't worry about crying and rolling on the ground, or feeling like you're devastated because you're chanting the holy name that comes by Kṛṣṇa grace. Our part is to practice. We may be in the beginning, last point, we may be in the beginning feeling that I'm nowhere. I don't have any adhikārī whatsoever, but everyone can grab on somewhere (excerpt from the talk 13:45) ------------------------------------------------------------ More videos to revitalize your Japa: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkKtsBboQFvxPojUUp8O3Rc40FAtqIo0b 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://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ (USA only) https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark #chantharekrishnaandbehappy #makejapagreatagain #kttvg #mantrameditation

This year in women's tennis, the top tier took further steps to entrench themselves but the WTA retained its signature depth. Sabalenka, Swiatek, and surprise – Krejcikova – added majors to their hauls; Paolini and Zheng broke out in a big way; and Gauff managed to rewrite her season in the fall. We'll take you through the highlights, the comebacks, the ‘remember whens,' and moments both infuriating and hilarious. As usual, we also choose our WTA Award winners and do a self-assessment on our 2024 WTA breakout picks.
