Each year, under the bright full moon of Guru Purnima, yoga practitioners and seekers around the world pause to honor the timeless presence of the Guru, the teacher who removes darkness and reveals the light that has always been within us. But what does it truly mean to walk in the light of the Guru? In the ancient yoga tradition, the Guru is far more than just a transmitter of techniques or philosophy. The Guru is the living embodiment of wisdom, a steady flame passed from teacher to student, generation after generation. The Guru: Not Just a Teacher, but a Living Embodiment Our ancient texts speak clearly about this. The Mundaka Upanishad (1.2.12) tells us: तद्विज्ञानार्थं स गुरुमेवाभिगच्छेत समित्पाणिः श्रोत्रियं ब्रह्मनिष्ठम् ॥ Tad-vijnanartham sa gurum evabhigacchet Samit-panih srotriyam brahma-nishtham "To realize that Supreme Knowledge, one must approach a Guru alone, carrying fuel in hand, who is learned in the scriptures (srotriya) and firmly established in Brahman (brahma-nistha)." These two qualities, srotriya and brahma-nistha, reveal the heart of the true Guru. Srotriya (श्रोत्रिय) comes from sruti (श्रुति), meaning "that which is heard," the revealed wisdom of the Vedas and Upanishads. Etymologically, sru means to hear and -triya means possessor of. A srotriya is one who has fully mastered the sacred teachings, the outer mastery of scripture, tradition, and precise method. Brahma-nistha (ब्रह्मनिष्ठ) brings us deeper still. Brahman is the undivided reality, the ultimate truth. Nistha means "firmly established," from nis (down, firm) and stha (to stand). A brahma-nistha is one who stands unshakably rooted in the living truth of Brahman. This is the inner realization that breathes life into the outer knowledge. Together, they remind us: Without srotriya, the teaching drifts. Without brahma-nistha, the teaching is lifeless. How the Guru Lives in Our Lineage In the Ashtanga Yoga tradition, we have seen these qualities alive in the teachers who came before us. K. Pattabhi Jois was a true srotriya, deeply rooted in Sanskrit, the Vedas, and the subtle method of Ashtanga Yoga. Yet his real power came from being brahma-nistha too: his whole life was practice, devotion, and direct living example. He did not just talk about yoga, he was yoga, every dawn, every breath, every student who came to him. Sharath Jois, Guruji's grandson, embodies this same living thread. His srotriya shines through in the precise count, the unwavering discipline, the commitment to preserve the parampara, the unbroken lineage. But what touches people most is his brahma-nistha: the quiet steadiness, the humility, the simple, living truth that shows through his presence and service to this path. A true Guru does not make you a follower. A true Guru shows you how to find the light that has always been yours. The Guru Cultivates the Inner Flame As Patanjali reminds us in the Yoga Sutra (1.20): श्रद्धावीर्यस्मृतिसमाधिप्रज्ञापूर्वक इतरेषाम् ॥ १.२० ॥ Sraddha-virya-smrti-samadhi-prajna-purvaka itaresam "For others, samadhi comes through faith (sraddha), vigor (virya), remembrance (smrti), deep absorption (samadhi), and wisdom (prajna)." These qualities are the hidden garden the Guru nourishes in us: Sraddha: faith, the quiet trust that steadies us when doubt arises. Virya: courageous effort, the strength to keep going. Smrti: remembrance of who we really are and why we practice. Samadhi: deep absorption, the merging of mind, breath, and heart. Prajna: clear insight, the wisdom that sees through illusion. The outer Guru lights this lamp. The inner Guru keeps it burning. A Prayer on Guru Purnima When we bow on Guru Purnima, we do not bow only to a person, we bow to the entire living thread that connects us to truth: our teachers, our daily practice, our inner wisdom. May our lives be our offering back, our sraddha, our virya, our willingness to stand firm in the truth when the world wavers. May we carry this flame forward, bright and steady, for all those who will come after us, seeking the same light that our Gurus kept alive for us. ॐ श्रीगुरुभ्यो नमः। Pranam to all Gurus, visible and invisible, past, present, and yet to come. Closing Thought May Guru Purnima remind you that the Guru is not far away. The true Guru lives in your daily breath, your sincere effort, and the quiet voice inside that whispers, keep going. May we keep this light alive, together. Practice LIVE with me exclusively on Omstars. Start your journey today with a 7-day trial at omstars.com.

Kids say the darndest things! Tad reveals the hysterical question his 4-year-old daughter asked after she heard him using voice to text!

On the Secret Witch Show today, our guest is Tad Hargrave. Tad is a hippy who developed a knack for marketing (and then learned how to be a hippy again). Since 2001, he's been weaving together strands of ethical marketing, Waldorf School education, a history in the performing arts, local culture work, anti-globalization activism, an interest in his ancestral, traditional cultures, community building and supporting local economies into this work of helping people create profitable businesses that are ethically grown while restoring the beauty of the marketplace. In this episode, we explore how our deepest wounds often point toward the wisdom we're here to share with the world as healers. Tad offers a refreshing lens on marketing as healing - showing how integrity, honesty, and right-relationship can become sacred acts of service. We speak about transforming our wounds into our gifts, learning to share our magic without manipulation, and reclaiming business as a soulful exchange that honours both the Witch and the world. What You'll Learn from this Episode: Coercion is everywhere - from birth to business - but healing begins when we choose integrity over manipulation We are branded by life - marked by our wounds in ways that show where our true medicine lives Our wounds show us the terrain we know best - the places we can now guide others through with humility and heart True marketing is love in action - remembering that business can be a sacred exchange, not a performance of persuasion Credibility doesn't come from certificates - it comes from 'heft': the weight of having lived, healed, walked the land and returned with wisdom to share When we turn our wounds into architecture - creating real offerings rooted in what we've healed - our work becomes medicine for the world.

Katrs ceturtais Latvijas iedzīvotājs atzīst, ka ir saskāries ar elektroierīču izraisītu negadījumu vai arī zina kādu, kas tādu ir pieredzējis. Tomēr vecas un bojātas elektroierīces turpina krāties teju katrā Latvijas mājsaimniecībā. Kā pārstāt veidot nevajadzīgu krāmu kolekciju, spriežam raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot. Vērtē AAS "Balta" risku vadības konsultants Jānis Vaivods, "AJ Power Recycling" pārstāvis Uldis Skrebs, inženieris, "Gjensidige Latvija" risku eksperts Juris Puriņš un "Latvijas zaļā punkta" vadītājs Kaspars Zakulis. "Svarīgi mājās neturēt vecu elektrotehniku vai bojātu elektrotehniku, tā var apdraudēt pašu, apkārtējos vai īpašumu," norāda Uldis Skrebs. Juris Puriņš atgādina, ka noveco ne tikai pati ierīce, bet arī vads. Pieslēdzot iekārtu elektrības tīklam, arī tam jāpievērš uzmanība. Parādās bojātās elektroinstalācijas riski. "Vienkārši notīt ar izolācijas lentu ir īslaicīgs risinājums. Elektrības pievadvads jāmaina, ja grib lietot, piemēram, veco tējkannu," atzīst Juris Puriņš. Jānis Vaivods atzīst, ka no bojātu elektroierīču radītu ugunsgrēku skaits tikai pieaug. Šobrīd jau katrs trešais ugunsgrēks ir no bojātām elektroinstalācijām vai elektroierīcēm. "Ja elektrības tīklam pieslēdz ilgstoši nelietotu elektroierīci, tas var radīt neparedzētu pārslodzi," norāda Jānis Vaivods. Iekārtās uzkrājas putekļi, metāliskās detaļas var sarūsēt. Ja elektrotīklam nav atbilstošu drošinātāju, tas var izraisīt ugunsgrēku elektroinstalācijās. Raidījuma viesi arī mudina utilizēt vecos telefonus, jo tajos ir litija jona baterijas, kuras izraisītu ugunsgrēku, ja tā sprāgst, ir neiespējami nodzēst ar ūdeni. Tad mājās jābūt ugunsdzēšamajam aparātam. Nevajag sevi pakļaut nevajadzīgam riskam. Kaspars Zakulis mudina aizdomāties jau par nākotnes riskiem. Šobrīd daudzi mājās uzstāda elektrības uzkrāšanas baterijas, kas ražoti no litija un kas varētu būt potenciāli bīstami.

"Klasikā" ienirstam sintezatoru pasaulē! Sarunājamies ar sintezatoru ražošanas uzņēmuma "Erica Synths" dibinātāju un vadītāju Ģirtu Ozoliņu un mazliet arī ar komponisti Annu Fišeri: uzzinām vairāk par "Hanzas peronā" gaidāmo sintezatoru saietu, kurā satiksies divi sintezatoru kamerorķestri. Proti, 30. novembrī plkst. 19.00 "Hanzas peronā" klausītāji aicināti pieredzēt Latvijas mūzikas dzīvē līdz šim nebijušu notikumu – elektroniskās mūzikas koncertu diviem sintezatoru kamerorķestriem. Vakara programmā – pirmatskaņojums: komponistes Annas Fišeres jaundarbs Noesis astoņiem izpildītājiem un četrpadsmit sintezatoriem, piedaloties mūziķiem no Latvijas klasiskās un elektroniskās mūzikas scēnām, savukārt pirmo reizi dzīvajā izpildījumā – Igaunijas elektroniskās mūzikas leģendas Svena Grunberga (Sven Grünberg) skaņdarbi Igaunijas Elektroniskās mūzikas savienības ansambļa (EMA) sniegumā. Signe Lagzdiņa: "Hanzas peronā" esat iecerējuši sapulcināt sintezatorus: būs veselu divu sintezatoru kamerorķestru koncerts, un Annai Fišerei, kura ir "Erica Synths" rezidences māksliniece, tapis grandiozs jaundarbs, kas šajā koncertā piedzīvos pasaules pirmatskaņojumu. Visupirms vaicāšu Annai: pastāsti par savu rezidences laiku ar "Erica Sinth" un arī to, kā tu iekļuvi šajā sintezatoru pasaulē? Anna Fišere: Mana interese par mūziku, šķiet, aizsākās tieši ar eksperimentālo mūziku: mani iedvesmoja NSRD… Bija arī brīnišķīgs projekts, kurā izmantojām dažādus sintezatorus, interese turpinājās, un man ļoti paveicās, ka Ģirts mani uzrunāja: viņa atbalstu un atsaucību izjutu jau no paša sākuma, un tā tas turpinājies visa radošā procesa laikā. Ģirts ar savu jaudu un vīziju neapšaubāmi veido būtisku pienesumu, jo šis ir ļoti ambiciozs projekts: jūtu, kā tas ietekmē manu radošo domāšanu – tas ir nozīmīgs pagrieziens, kas ietekmē arī manu nākotnes izvēli. Cik sintezatoru piedalīsies tava skaņdarba pirmatskaņojumā? Nevarētu teikt, ka visi ir sintezatori. (..) Bet kopumā būs 19 ierīces – lielākas un mazākas kastītes. Pastāsti, lūdzu, par sava darba "Noesis" konceptu – kāds tas īsti būs? Ideja balstīta Platona koncepcijā par augstāko izziņas formu kā tiešu, intuitīvu patiesības uztveri. Tas bija virzītājspēks skaņdarba komponēšanas laikā. Es gan interesējos arī par citiem Platona darbiem – mani ārkārtīgi saviļņojusi viņa "Ala". Tad nu "Noesis" interpretēju saistībā tieši ar to, domājot par īstenību un šķitumu vai ilūzijām un īstenību, un to, kā navigēt gan šajā pasaulē, gan šķituma pasaulē. Tātad klausītāji varēs doties filozofiskā pārdomu ceļojumā. Kādā video dzirdēju, kā tu saki – ka klausītājiem nevajadzētu neko gaidīt, vienkārši būt atvērtiem un nākt uz koncertu. Ko tu esi pulcinājusi, lai šo darbu atskaņotu? Mums ir astoņi mūziķi, un ļoti interesanti, ka katram no šiem mūziķiem ir pilnīgi cita veida pieredze! Dzirdēsim pianistus Rihardu Plešanovu un Edgaru Tomševiču, bet Reinis Rabenau nav no akadēmiskās mūzikas vides, bet vairāk no elektronikas mūzikas pasaules un spēlēs modulāro sintezatoru. Vēl būs Kaspars Tobis, kuram ir milzīga pieredze ar sintezatoriem, jaunā perkusioniste, Guntara Freiberga ļoti talantīgā studente Sonja Misiņa, Ansels Kaugers, kurš tikko beidzis kompozīcijas studijas, Madara Ozoliņa spēlēs ļoti interesantu elektronisko pūšaminstrumentu, un Error, kas zināms kā ambientās mūzikas pārstāvis, un to visu diriģēs Artūrs Gailis. Ģirt, kā izauga lielā ideja par sintezatoru pasauli, kurā top dažādi projekti, skan koncerti, tiek aicināti komponisti, lai rada, darbojas un pēta šo lauciņu? Ģirts Ozoliņš: Sintezators, ja paņemam nost tā [māksliniecisko] pielietojumu, ir elektronisku shēmu samudžinājums – dzelzs. Un, ja nav iesaistīti mūziķi un komponisti, kas to spēlē, tam īsti nav jēgas. Ja nebūtu mūziķu, mēs nevarētu pastāvēt. Tas būtu tāpat kā ražot kapļus valstī, kurā nav lauksaimniecības. (Smejas.) Bet jūs taču varētu silti gulēt uz sava uzņēmuma lauriem un priecāties, ka pasaulslaveni mūziķi pērk jūsu instrumentus! Tieši tāpēc izveidojām savu rezidences studiju, kurā ir daudzu un dažādu interesantu sintezatoru kolekcija – gan paštaisītu, gan mūsu ražotu; esam arī mainījušies ar citiem ražotājiem. Vēl pirms rezidences sākām projektu "Garāža", kura ietvaros aicinājām mūziķus uzstāties mūsu koncertzālē, mēs šos koncertus filmējām, un visas uzstāšanās publicētas mūsu mājaslapā: sadaļā "Garāža" ir diezgan apjomīga kolekcija ar performancēm, intervijas ar mūziķiem. Tas ir ļoti labs materiāls, kas parāda, kā mūziķi jūtas pie šiem instrumentiem. Šķita, ka Latvijā ir tik daudz talantīgu mūziķu un komponistu, ka mēs viņiem varam sniegt vairāk iespēju izmēģināt netradicionālākus sintezatorus un parādīt arī sevi plašāk pasaulē. Mums ir diezgan daudz sekotāju sociālajos tīklos, kas tam, ko mēs darām – mūziķi, komponisti un producenti ārvalstīs. Ar savām iniciatīvām popularizējam Latvijas talantus arī pasaulē. Kā īsti orientēties sintezatoru kastīšu jūklī? Ir sintezatori ar taustiņiem, un ir tādi, kuriem ir tikai vadiņi un skaļuma regulētāji... Vai viens no jūsu mērķiem nav parādīt, ka sintezators ir daudz plašāks un nozīmīgāks instruments un ka tas nav pielietojams tikai deju vai popmūzikā? Jā, tur ir tas lielais pārpratums, un varbūt nedaudz vainīga ir arī pati popmūzika. Ja mēs paskatāmies sintezatoru attīstības vēsturi, tie radās tad, kad modernās mūzikas pionieri vēlējās īstenot savas radošās ieceres, bet klasiskie instrumenti, kas viņiem bija pieejami, to neļāva. Piemēram, Karlheincs Štokhauzens 50. gadu vidū reiz ieradās savā Ķelnes studijā, kur viņš daudzus gadus rezidēja: studijas inženieri bija dabūjuši tam laikam inovatīvas elektroniskās ērģeles un teica – re, tagad varēsi eksperimentēt! Taču Štokhauzens atbildēja, ka ērģeles viņam nederot, jo taustiņu izklājums hromatiskajā gammā ierobežojot viņa radošo lidojumu. Tāpēc viņš Ķelnes studijā savāca skaņas ģeneratorus – Annas jau pieminētās zilzaļās kastītes, kas taisa troksni, pīkst: šie ģeneratori oriģināli tika izmantoti akustiskajās laboratorijās, zinātniskajos mērījumos. Taču Štokhauzens sāk šos ģeneratorus izmantot, lai veidotu savu mūziku.  Drusciņ vēlāk, 60. gadu vidū, komponists Mortons Subotniks Amerikā arī gribēja veidot savu elektronisko mūziku, bet viņam nebija, ar ko to darīt. Viņš dabūja milzīgu finansējumu no kādas universitātes, un vērsās pie inženiera Dona Buklasa, kas speciāli viņam izstrādāja sintezatoru, kuru izmantoja savā revolucionārajā skaņdarbā "Silver apples of the Moon, per nastro magnetico", kas tapis 1967. gadā. (..) Tieši komponistu ieceres, kuras viņi nevarēja realizēt ar klasiskajiem instrumentiem, aizveda pie tā, ka radās sintezatori. Ja vispārinām, atbildot uz jūsu jautājumu – sintezators ir jebkas, kas kontrolētā veidā var radīt skaņu. Respektīvi, tam ir kaut kādi kloķīši, podziņas vai kāda kontroles virsma, ar kurām manipulējot, mūziķis rada tādu skaņu, kādu viņš iecerējis. Klaviatūra sintezatoram obligāti nav nepieciešama – lai gan tieši tādus mēs parasti iedomājamies sintezatorus, kurus mēs redzam mūzikas veikalos vai mūzikas stundās. Reiz vadīju meistarklasi Igaunijā, kurā piedalījās viens šobrīd jau ievērojams igauņu komponists un mūzikas pētnieks. Viņš, ja nemaldos, Vīnes Mūzikas akadēmijā bija aizstāvējis maģistra darbu par mūzikas instrumentu interfeisiem, un manā meistarklasē viņš teica tā: "Klaviatūras domātas švakajiem." (Smejas) Tā ka sintezatori rada skaņu, bet tiem nav obligāti jābūt ierobežotiem ar kādu specifisku interfeisu jeb veidu, kā mūziķis sadarbojas ar sintezatoriem. Tas var būt arī žests. Ir vairāki uzņēmumi, kas ražo īpašus kontrolierus, kur mūziķis var uzvesties kā diriģents un vadīt sintezatoru, tam nepieskaroties.  Vairāk – audioierakstā.  

Nākamā gada budžeta pieņemšana ieiet finiša taisnē, galīgais balsojums būs nākamnedēļ. Tad arī varēs skatīties, kas notiek ar valdību. Katrā ziņā no opozīcijas puses ir izskanējis, ka būšot diezgan nopietni pārsteigumi, lai kas tie arī būtu. Bet lielāka uzmanība tomēr šonedēļ ir bijusi pievērta starptautiskajiem notikumiem pēc tam, kad parādījās tā sauktais Ukrainas miera plāns, kas faktiski paredzēja Ukrainas kapitulāciju. Skaidrs, ka ne Ukraina, ne Eiropa ar to nebija mierā un nedēļas laikā ir norisinājušās ļoti daudzas sarunas šajā sakarā. Krustpunktā aktualitātes analizē Rīgas Stradiņa universitātes docente, politoloģe Lelde Metla-Rozentāle, Latvijas TV raidījuma "Kas notiek Latvijā?" vadītājs Jānis Domburs, portāla "Delfi" žurnālists Raivis Spalvēns un portāla "TVNET" grupa galvenais redaktors Toms Ostrovskis.

Kā mainījies cilvēka organisms līdz ar kustību izmaiņām tūkstošiem gadu laikā? Kā kustība ietekmē mūsu nervu sistēmu un kā sportiskās aktivitātes maina šūnu darbību? Gaidot Latvijas Sabiedriskā medija labdarības maratonu "Dod pieci!", kurā šogad īpaša uzmanība pievērsta mazkustīgumam Latvijas sabiedrībā, raidījumā Zināmais nezināmajā par kustību nozīmi sarunājas Latvijas Universitātes Medicīnas un dzīvības zinātņu fakultātes asociētā profesore Līga Plakane, Rīgas Stradiņa universitātes docente un Antropoloģijas laboratorijas vadītāja Silvija Umbraško un Paula Stradiņa klīniskās universitātes slimnīcas neiroloģe Ramona Valante. Vai varam tā teikt, ka kustības mūža garumā ir tāda stabila, gara un kvalitatīva pensija vecumdienām? Tam, ka kustības ir atslēga, lai mēs būtu veseli un dzīvotu ilgu un laimīgu mūžu piekrīt visas trīs sarunas dalībnieces. "Kustība uzlabo gan vielmaiņu, gan asinsriti visā ķermenī, gan gan saglabā kaulu veselību, kas ir ļoti būtiski, salīdzinot jaunību ar vecumdienām," piebilst Silvija Umbraško. Ramona Valante norāda, ka ikdienas darbā  ar kustību traucējumu slimniekiem redz, ja cilvēks jaunībā nav pievērsies vairāk kustībām, arī tad, kad ir sākusies slimība, nav par vēlu sākt, lai uzturētu savu dzīves kvalitāti.  "Daudzām slimībām, it īpaši, kas ir saistītas ar kustībām, kustību traucējumiem, piemēram, neirodeģeneratīvas slimības, parkinsonisms, medikamenti ir limitējoši. Tie daudz ko uzlabo dzīves kvalitātē un ļoti daudz ko sniedz simptomu atvieglošanā, bet, ja pacients izvēlas vai kaut kādu iemeslu dēļ nespēj to inkorporēt kopā ar fizioterapiju, ar regulāru kustēšanos, tad tā ir diezgan limitējoša palīdzība," norāda Ramona Valante. Ja to spēj arī kopā ar kārtīgu fizioterapiju, to arī paši pacienti uzreiz pasaka, ka viņi jūtas kā no jauna piedzimuši, piemēram, izgājuši kaut kādu rehabilitācijas kursu." Kāpēc kustības ir tā maģiskā atslēga veselībai? "Cilvēks ir kustīga vertikāla būtne, mūsu ķermenis nav pielāgots atrasties horizontālā stāvoklī ilgstoši, izņemot pagulēt. Ja mēs ilgstoši, ko var arī redzēt slimnīcās, vai arī tad, kad cilvēks paliek aizvien mazkustīgāks, pasīvāks, mainās, un ko arī redzu, kas ļoti ietekmē dzīves kvalitāti pacientam, sirds asinsvadu darbība," skaidro Ramona Valante. "Daudziem pacientiem, arī ja iepriekš nav bijušas nopietnas slimības, bet ilgstoši ir bijis kaut kādu iemeslu dēļ gultas režīms, vai ļoti pasīvs režīms, pēc tam ir ārkārtīgi grūti atkal vertikalizēties. Rodas izmaiņas asinsspiedienā, organisms ir pielāgojies pasīvai horizontālai dzīvei, nav vajadzīga vēlme cīnīties pret gravitāciju, tad arī asinsvadu paplašināšanās un sašaurināšanās notiek stipri lēnāk. Tad sākas problēmas - es vertikalizējos, apsēžos, es neko nevaru izdarīt, man nav spēka, ir dulla galva. Cits vēl ģībst. Arī pēc ilgstošas gulēšanas slimnīcā ir grūti atkopties organismam, kamēr sākas kustēšanās un kustības. Ikdienā mēs par to neaizdomājamies, bet pilnībā pārslēdzās viss asinsspiediens, un pēc tam ir ļoti grūti, jo nevar padomāt, ir tāda dūmakaina galva, kad apsēžas, liekas, ka kritīs. Protams, nav spēka. Un vienīgais, kā to var novērst, ir kustēšanās. Ir šķidrums jāuzņem, un kustības, lai to vispār varētu normalizēt." Protams, labākais būtu regulāri kustēties, nodarboties ar kādām fiziskām aktivitātēm, bet arī neregulāras aktivitātes var palīdzēt. Piemēram, arī neregulāri vingrojot, varam novērst daudzas problēmas, kaut vai skeleta muskulatūras problēmas. Neregulāri darīt ir labāk nekā vispār nedarīt, lai stiprinātu savu ķermeni, lai lielākā vecumā būtu mazāk vai nebūtu problēmu.

Kad Ieva Treija 1993. gadā kopā ar vīru sāka biznesu, viņi kokosriekstu skaidiņas glabāja vecāku garāžā un slēpās no mafijas aiz mājas sētas. Šodien Gemoss ir viens no lielākajiem Latvijas uzņēmumiem ar 240 darbiniekiem un 41 miljonu apgrozījumu.Un tad notika 2019. gads, kuru Ieva sauc par baigo gadu. Trīs mēnešu laikā viņa zaudēja gan vīru, gan 17 gadus veco dēlu. Abās reizēs - pēkšņi un negaidīti. Esmu līdz sirds dziļumiem pateicīga Ievai, ka viņa pastāstīja, kā atrada spēku un jēgu dzīvot tālāk pēc prātam neaptverama zaudējuma.Šodien Ieva vada uzņēmumu kopā ar saviem pieaugušajiem bērniem, un viņi jau ir iekarojusi arī Lietuvas tirgu. Ieva regulāri dodas ļoti garos pārgājienos un ik gadu atbalsta trīs jauniešus ar Artūra fonda stipendijām.Šī ir saruna par to, ka bizness nav tikai par naudu. Par to, kā dzīvot tālāk, kad notikušajam nav skaidrojuma. Un par to, ka mežs, Santjago ceļš un maltītes, ar kurām dalies, var būt daļa no dziedināšanās.P.S. Ja tu esi Gemoss fans tāpat kā Laura (kas regulāri uz Šveici ved pilnus koferus ar riekstiem) - šajā sarunā tu ieraudzīsi, kāpēc Gemoss ir tāds, kāds tas ir.Ja šī vai kāda cita saruna tev noderēja vai bija interesanta, uzsauc Cilvēkjaudai virtuālo “kafiju”.

Iespējams, ka katrai saimniecei vai saimniekam ir sava bukstiņputras, gaļas sautējuma, pupu un zirņu zupas,  aukstās gaļas, aknu pastētes un karpas pagatavošanas recepte. Bet ja nav vai ir vēlme klasisko recepti dažādot, tad raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot "Ladigs gastronomija" pavārs Ingmārs Ladigs atklāj nestandarta receptes labi zināmiem ēdieniem. Silts un gards ziemas ēdiens ir cepta karpa. Ingmārs Ladigs skaidro, ka karpu pārgriež no muguras puses, jo galvas pusē ir biezāka nekā pie astes, tā pārgriežot var vienmērīgi izklāt. Kārtīgi iztīra, izmazgā un var marinēt.  Marinēšanai viņš iesaka izmantot sildošās garšvielas - muskatriekstu, ingveru. Tā zivs iegūs ambiciozāku garšu. Protams, var izmantot arī dilles, kadiķogas, ķiplokus, etiķi vai citrona sulu. "Marinētai zivij ir kulinārā vērtība," atzīst Ingmārs Ladigs. Pirms cepšanas marinādi ar salveti nosusina. Karpai patīk cepties lielā tauku daudzumā. Tad būs garšīgāka garoziņa. Fileju pietiek cept uz parastās pannas, veselu zivi - jāliek cepeškrāsnī. Ja veselu zivi liek cpeškrāsnī, pildījumam var izmanto arī cukgaļas cauraudzi. Karpu var pagatavot arī tumšā alus mērcē. Karpas fileju apvārta miltos un apcep. Tad sagatavo mērci: apcep pannā sīpolus ar sviestu, ielej glāzi tumšā alus, pieliek karoti medus, citrona sulu, mazliet sinepes. Kad alus novārās, var arī pāris karotes saldo krējumu pievienot. Apcepto zivi liek mērcē un pasutina 5-10 minūtes. Domājot par Ziemassvētku laiku, un arī siltiem ziemas ēdieniem, aktuāli ir vārītie pelēki zirņi. Ingmārs Ladigs iesaka atstāt vārītos zirņus šķidrumā, kurā vārīja, jo bez šķidruma paliek daudz sausāki. Ja nejauši pārvāra zirņus, var taisīt kroketes vai kotletes. Mērcēšanai labāk izvēlēties aukstu ūdeni, pirms vārīšanas to nomazgāt, jo zirņiem patīk rūgt. Vārot var pievienot kādu garšsakni (seleriju, pastinaku, burkānu vai sīpolu), tas bagātinās garšu. Sāli šefpavārs iesaka likt beigās. Klasiski zirņiem pievieno apceptu cauraudzīti ar sīpoliem, ja uzturā nelieto gaļu, var sīpolu ievārījumu uzlikt.

No 7. novembra zvanu centra "Sonido" atbalsta tālrunis katru piektdienu īpaši atvēlēts onkoloģijas pacientiem un cilvēkiem, kuri nonākuši krīzes situācijā. Par sociālo projektu "Parunāsim?" interesējamies raidījumā Kā labāk dzīvot. Stāsta zvanu centra "Sonido" īpašniece un sociālā projekta "Parunāsim?" izveidotāja Inga Muižniece, žurnāliste un pacientu organizācijas "Onkoalianse" pārstāve Inese Supe un kapelāne Sindija Bergmane. Inese Supe norāda, ka onkoloģijas pacientiem nav savas līnijas, kur viņus uzklausītu cilvēks, kurš saprot, ko nozīmē onkoloģija, ārstēšanās un blaknes.  "Kad es pati kļuvu par onkoloģijas pacienti, sapratu, cik svarīgi ir, ka ir otrs cilvēks ar tādu pašu diagnozi, ar kuru var pakonsultēties, jo dakterim nav laika. Tāpēc ir arī onkoloģijas pacientu atbalsta grupas," atzīst Inese Supe. "Kad šo ideju izstāstīju Ingai [Muižniecei], ka onkoloģijas pacientiem nav ar ko parunāties, jo tas ir specifiski, Inga uzreiz atbalstīja," gandarīta Inese Supe. Viņa stāsta, ka pirms tam bija vērsusies Veselības ministrijā, runājusi ar ierēdņiem, kas uzteica ideju, bet realizēja to sociālais projekts, jo tā izveidotāja saprot, cik ļoti svarīgas ir sarunas. Inese Supe pati ar prieku piedalās sarunās. "Liela daļa cilvēku zvana, kuriem ir mentālas problēmas, kuriem vienkārši gribas ar kādu parunāties. Tad mēs vienkārši runājam," pieredzē daļas Inese Supe. "Savukārt onkoloģijas pacientiem ir specifiski jautājumi, kāpēc pie daktera jāgaida tik ilgi, vai varu ieteikt kaut ko no pašas pieredzes, kādus vitamīnus vai uztura bagātinātājus var lietot ķīmijterapijas laikā, lai nebūtu tik slikti. Manuprāt, starts ir ļoti veiksmīgs un daudzsološs. Cik vien man ļaus, izmantošu piektdienas, lai parunātos ar cilvēkiem, arī publiski mēģināšu stāstīt, cik šis pakalpojums ir nepieciešams." Domājot par attīstību, Inese Supe būtu priecīga, ka ar cilvēkiem sarunātos mediķi, kuri var reālu padomu sniegt, kad beigusies garšas sajūta no ķīmijterapijas vai ir caureja vai spēcīga vemšana. Inga Muižniece stāsta, ka darbiniekiem ir specifiska atlase un arī viņiem tiek sniegta palīdzība un ir apmācības, lai varētu strādāt. "Tie ir cilvēki 50+ vecumā, cilvēki ar invaliditāti, kuri savas dzīves laikā invaliditāti ir ieguvuši, pieņēmuši, samierinājušies un spēj kvalitatīvi dzīvot tālāk. Viņiem ir personiskā pieredze," norāda Inga Muižniece. "Tas nes līdzi to, ka tu spēj pieņemt otru tādu, kāds viņš ir. Uzklausīt viņu. Ne vienmēr tas nozīmē, ka jāmetas klāt ar risinājumu. Bieži vien cilvēkam gribas izrunāt sāpi, nevis uzreiz ķerties klāt risinājumam." "Es šo līniju esmu izveidojusi, bet es nekad nevarētu strādāt par operatori," atklāj Inga Muižniece. "Jo man ir vēlme mesties uzreiz palīdzēt, dot risinājumu, bet ir jāpastāv, jānogaida un tikai pēc tam, kad cilvēks ir izrunājies, jāsaprot, vai risinājumam vispār ir vieta." "Sonido" sociālā projekta "Parunāsim?" atbalsta tālrunis ir 26564564. Zvanīt var darba dienās no pl. 11-19. Piektdienās no pl. 12-16 darbojas onkoloģijas atbalsta līnija, no pl. 16-19 - garīgais atbalsts ar kapelānu.

This week's show is with Tad Hargrave. Tad is a hippy who developed a knack for marketing (and then learned how to be a hippy again). Since 2001, he's been weaving together strands of ethical marketing, Waldorf School education, a history in the performing arts, local culture work, anti-globalization activism, an interest in his ancestral, traditional cultures, community building and supporting local economies into this work of helping people create profitable businesses that are ethically grown while restoring the beauty of the marketplace. Tad did improv comedy semi-professionally for 25 years, co-ran Edmonton's progressive community building network TheLocalGood.ca, founded streetcarshows.com and the Jams program of yesworld.org. He speaks Scottish Gaelic and helped to launch and co-facilitate the Nova Scotia Gaels Jam. He is from Edmonton, Alberta (traditionally known, in the language of the Cree, as Amiskwaciy [Beaver Hill] and later Amiskwaciwaskihegan [Beaver Hill House]) and currently lives in Duncan, BC (Quw'utsun territory). In this episode, Lian and Tad explore how living stories form culture, meaning they're more than psychological metaphors, they're teachings tied to the land and beings around us. They touch upon Tad's Waldorf childhood and the years he drifted, the Gaelic homecoming that pulled him to Scotland and an elder storyteller. They follow the thread from archetype to architecture… sun, soil, and seasons. From there the conversation turns to how stories remember what a culture must not forget, why punishment poisons, and how initiation is smuggled into folktales so boys and girls grow into people. Listen if you have ever felt imprinted by myth then somehow lost your connection to it, wondered why archetypes can feel lacking, or longed for belonging. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll learn from this episode: How Tad's own hunger for ancestral story led him from activism to Gaelic study, reawakening a lineage of belonging How old stories once carried medicine, mapping the plants, elements, and ethics that kept a people alive Why myth without land becomes psychology, and what returns when stories are rooted back in place Resources and stuff spoken about: Visit Tad's Website Tad's Ethical Marketing Starter Kit Find out more about Membership for Marketing for Hippies Join Tad on Instagram & YouTube See Tad's Upcoming Events Join UNIO, The Community for Wild Sovereign Souls: This is for the old souls in this new world… Discover your kin & unite with your soul's calling to truly live your myth.

2. decembrī svinama jaunlatviešu kustības viena no aizsācējiem, Ainažu jūrskolas dibinātāja, latviešu ekonomista, publicista un politiķa Krišjāņa Valdemāra 200. dzimšanas diena. Jāatzīstas, ka līdzās tam Krišjānim Valdemāram, kuru plakātiski zina itin visi - Ainažu jūrskolas dibinātājs, “Pēterburgas Avīžu” redaktors - viņa dzīvesstāstā ir izvēles, kuras saprast ir grūti, neiedziļinoties 19. gadsimta vēstures kontekstā. Ar vēsturniekiem Vitu Zelču un Gintu Apalu pārrunājam Krišjāņa Valdemāra dzīvesstāsta grūtāk saprotamos brīžus 19. gadsimta vēstures kontekstā. Viens no šī raidījuma mērķiem, ir vēlreiz izstāstīt Krišjāņa Valdemāra dzīvesstāstu. Tātad – dzimis viņš ir dzimis Ārlavas Vecjunkuru mājās 1825. gada 2. decembrī. Viņa tēvs Mārtiņš Valdemārs ir Vecjunkuru iegātnis, māte – Marija ir saimniekmeita. Krišjānim Valdemāram, viņa māsai, vēlāk – rakstniecei Marijai Medinskai,  brālim Indriķim, vēlāk – arhivāram un vēsturniekam, bija labas izredzes mantot saimniecību. Taču 1835. gadā, kad Krišjānim Valdemāram ir 10 gadi, viņa tēvs cieš neveiksmi saimniekošanā, ģimene spiesta mājas atstāt un pārcelties uz Sasmaku, tagadējo Valdemārpili. Valdemārpilī nokļuvis, Krišjānis Valdemārs tur uzsāk arī savas skolas gaitas, ko turpina Pūņu muižas skolā, Lubezeres draudzes skolā. Tad jau viņš ir gatavs pieņemt mājskolotāja vietu, uzdien par rakstveža palīgu Rundālē un rakstvedi Lielbērstelē. Pieminēto pirmo lauku inteliģences pulciņu “Baltijas jūras izsmelšanas biedrība” , Valdemārs nodibina strādādams par rakstvedi Ēdolē. Un ir ļoti grūti uzminēt, kāda ir bijusi ģenerālgubernatora Suvorova motivācija, apmaksājot Valdemāram mācības Liepājas Augstākajā apriņķa skolā, kas vēlāk pavēra ceļu uz universitāti. 1859. gadā, Krišjānis Valdemārs pārceļas uz Pēterburgu. Kopš 1862. gada, sākotnēji cenzē, tad kopā ar Juri Alunānu un Krišjāni Baronu rediģē "Pēterburgas Avīzes". Cita starpā iestājas pret kārkluvācietību. Kas jau Maskavas posmā, ap 1867. gadu, kad Krišjānis Valdemārs kļūst par laikraksta "Московские ведомости" līdzstrādnieku, pāraug asā nostājā pret vācu muižniecību. Pēterburgas periodā Krišjānis Valdemārs ir ierēdnis Finanšu ministrijā, 1860. - 1861. gadā lielkņaza Konstantīna uzdevumā apceļo Baltijas jūras piekrasti, iesniedz Krievijas valdībai priekšlikumus par kuģniecības attīstīšanu Baltijas jūrā. 1864. gadā ar tiešu Valdemāra līdzdalību tika izveidota Ainažu jūrskola. Vēl viens veids kā Krišjānis Valdemārs vēlējās palīdzēt nabadzīgākajiem latviešiem tikt pie turības – viņš iepirka lielākas zemju platības Novgorodas guberņā, piedāvājot latviešiem tās apsaimniekošanai. Novgorodas zemju plāns izgāžas. Atmiņās Jānim Kreicbergam Valdemārs stāstījis, ka  izputējušie latviešu zemnieki pat piketējuši Ziemas pils laukumā, kas vedis pie viņa aresta un nopratināšanas. Par Novgorodas zemju neveiksmes ķīlnieku kļūst ne tikai pats Krišjānis Valdemārs, kurš zaudē savu un arī sievas Luīzes pūra naudu. Daudz tiešākā veidā zemnieku neapmierinātībai pretim stāties nākas viņa jaunākajai māsai Marijai. Marija, pirmās laulības uzvārdā Naumane, pārdod īpašumu Sasmakā, un 1865. gadā kopā ar māti pārceļas uz Krišjāņa Valdemāra ierīkoto latviešu koloniju Novgorodas guberņā. Viņai nākas vienai gan pārdzīvot mātes nāvi tūlīt pēc pārcelšanās, gandrīz 17 gadus viņa viena pārvalda Krišjāņa Valdemāra muižu Krievijā. -- Krišjāņa Valdemāra jubileja šogad kā Latvijas nominācija tiek daudzināta UNESCO svinamo gadadienu kalendārā, nesot viņa slavu ārpus Latvijas robežām. Decembra sākumā durvis vērs Valdemāra personībai veltīta plaša izstāde Rīgas Vēstures un kuģniecības muzejā.

Tad needs help figuring out what motive Drex had when he invited him to a Falcons game! There's DEFINITELY an ulterior motive. Can you solve the mystery?

Tad innocently asked a co-worker a question out of concern. Now there's talk of HR meetings and "sensitivity training"!

Today on Word Balloon, I'm talking with two legends of Disney TV animation—Greg Weisman, the creator of Gargoyles, and Tad Stones, the mind behind Darkwing Duck. They're teaming up for the first time in decades for a brand-new crossover comic series — Gargoyles / Darkwing Duck, debuting this January from Dynamite Entertainment.We'll dig into how this unlikely mash-up came together, what it's like blending the gothic mythos of Gargoyles with the high-energy satire of Darkwing Duck, and how the characters reflect two very different eras of Disney storytelling. Beyond the comic,Greg and Tad share their memories from the golden age of Disney Afternoon syndication—what it was like building shows like DuckTales, Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers, Aladdin: The Animated Series, and of course, Gargoyles—when animation was a daily fixture for millions of kids. And we'll get real about today's landscape—how streaming has upended the business model that supported those kinds of shows, what that means for creators, and whether there's still room for original animated series to thrive outside of nostalgia.

Welcome to Episode 195 of Inside The Line: The Catskill Mountains Podcast!

We get into how this wild idea came about, what it's like to hike without shoes, and some of Ken's adventures beyond the Catskills. Plus, we check in on the saga of the immovable Adirondack moose, talk about Amendment 1 on the ballot, and—of course—recent rescues.

This week, we explore how divorce, drink-driving offences, and defamation can cripple a career or clinic if not handled properly, and why most people react far too late. My guest, Tad Nelson, a criminal defence lawyer and "Super Lawyer" from Galveston County, Texas, who brings more than three decades of courtroom experience, plus a master's degree in forensic toxicology, to our conversation. Tad has seen the best and worst of human behaviour, and his insights apply directly to business owners navigating legal, personal, or reputation challenges. Tad explains the importance of acting fast, staying calm, and getting professional help, both legal and PR,  before the fallout damages your brand, income, or family. He also shares his philosophy that a strong reputation isn't repaired after a crisis; it's built long before one happens. This episode is packed with practical advice on staying ahead of legal problems, managing perception in the age of social media, and leading with integrity under pressure. Whether you're a podiatrist, clinic owner, or entrepreneur in any field, you'll take away lessons on communication, humility, and protecting the business you've worked so hard to build.

Some authors know just how to tug at my heartstrings before I even open the book.  Listen in to see why I'm eager to read Katie Powner's latest book, When the Road Comes Around. note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.  If you're looking for books with depth, tackling tough topics with gentleness and grace, look no further.  Powner shares her heart for story in this interview.  You don't want to miss her books. They're sure to soothe the soul and point you to Jesus. When the Road Comes Around by Katie Powner Only trouble can bring about the beauty of redemption and grace. In the small town of Grady, Montana, twenty-four-year-old Tad Bungley has a reputation for trouble. When he lands a job at Come Around Ranch, however, his life seems to take a positive turn. As he develops a soft spot for Sam, the ranch owner's disabled son, and a special bond with TJ, a rescue horse with a poor reputation of his own, Tad becomes determined not to bungle it up this time. Forty-eight-year-old Anita Wilson is too young to feel so old, but rheumatoid arthritis limits her ability to work on the guest ranch she owns with her husband. It was a risk to hire Tad for the summer, but Anita is convinced he just needs a bit of encouragement to find his footing. What she doesn't anticipate is that Tad's presence at the ranch will change everything, including her relationship with her son. And when Tad finds himself in more of a mess than ever, he and Anita must learn when to hold on, when to let go, and what grace really means.
