What happens when punk rock meets modern faith trends? In this episode, the hosts dive deep into the cultural and spiritual dynamics shaping contemporary Christianity. From the consumer-driven "revival" narrative—marked by increased Bible sales and app downloads—to the troubling intersections of faith and political ideologies like Christian nationalism, they explore what genuine spiritual renewal really looks like. Highlighting the concept of cruciformity, they discuss how the church's role in society should reflect Jesus' teachings of love, justice, and humility, rather than power and control. Through thoughtful conversation, they unpack the transformative power of prayer, emphasizing honesty over performance and exploring how trusting in a good and generous Father reshapes our understanding of faith. Drawing parallels to cultural icons like the Ramones, the episode also touches on how creative expressions and subcultures can challenge the status quo, much like the radical message of Jesus. Join the discussion as the hosts navigate the tension between cultural issues and the theology of the Kingdom of God. What does it mean to live out a faith rooted in service and sacrifice in a world driven by consumption and division? We encourage you to engage in the conversation—share your thoughts in the comments or connect with us on social media as we continue to wrestle with these big questions together.

Who's Rupa Goswami? We're known as Rūpānugas, followers of Rūpa Goswāmī. In the spiritual world. He has an intimate connection with Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa as a mañjarī. He's known as Rūpa Mañjarī, but here in this world, he shows very practically how we can perform the nine items of devotional service and water the seed of devotion, just as Lord Caitanya had taught, and we can have success in this life. To achieve that end, Caitanya Mahāprabhu, who is his spiritual master and preceptor, taught him all about how to worship the Deity. And you'll find in Caitanya-caritāmṛta that Lord Caitanya gives instruction to Sanātana Goswāmī exactly how to establish a Deity, how to worship the Deity. He asked Sanātana Goswāmī, who is the brother of Rūpa Goswāmī, to write the entire chapter on Deity worship, and who teaches it? Kṛṣṇa. He tells about the different forms of the Deity you can worship. There are Deities from metal, wood, stone, jewels, paint, and in your mind. You can make a deity out of earth, and so forth. And then he tells the exact process, and that process has been passed down also through great sages like Nārada. Because of Nārada, we have the Nārada Pañcarātra, and we have the Pāñcarātrikī vidhi, which is the rules and regulations of how to worship Kṛṣṇa in the Deity form. So this was part of the process of bhakti-yoga, to worship the Deity, and Rūpa Goswāmī worshiped Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Govinda according to the instructions of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. And here in Jaipur, they still follow that system. So it's part of our Gauḍīya family tradition to come here and see Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Govinda and remember Rūpa Goswāmī. ------------------------------------------------------------ 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #kartikimmersionretreat #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

Are we living in Satan's Little Season? Revelation 20 speaks of the dragon bound for a thousand years and then loosed “for a little season.” Some believe this prophetic mystery may already be unfolding. Has the Millennium already happened? Did history itself get rewritten to hide Yahusha's reign? In this teaching, we explore: Revelation 20:1–10 — Satan bound, loosed, and final judgment Yahusha's promise of “coming quickly” to His first-century hearers The Millennium: history, early church fathers, and competing views The “timeline reset” theory (700–1,000 years missing from history) Strange evidence: palaces with no bathrooms, mud floods, and “old world” architecture How this relates to the Gog & Magog deception at the end of the age We'll draw from Scripture, history (Josephus, Tacitus, Augustine), and modern questions about prophecy and history. Stick around to the end for a biblical conclusion: hope in Yahushas' victory, even in days of deception.

In this episode, Swamiji concludes his exploration of Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, Verse 6, by addressing a deeply personal and universal theme: why human relationships often fail. Listeners will discover how Shree Krishna contrasts fleeting worldly attachments with the soul's eternal bond with the Divine, offering a path to lasting fulfillment through spiritual love. Swamiji explains that human love, rooted in expectation and impermanence, inevitably leads to disappointment. But divine love—anchored in selflessness and surrender—transcends time and transforms the heart. This episode invites seekers to reframe their emotional experiences and redirect their longing toward the only relationship that never breaks: the soul's connection with God. Building upon our previous episodes on divine timing and the purpose of creation, this discussion deepens your understanding of love as a spiritual force and reveals how the Gita gently guides us from heartbreak to wholeness. Tune in to enrich your journey through the Gita and elevate your quest for eternal love, clarity, and divine fulfillment. About Swami Mukundananda: Swami Mukundananda is a world-renowned spiritual teacher, author, and founder of the Jagadguru Kripaluji Yog (JKYog) organization. A unique blend of intellect and devotion, Swamiji holds degrees from IIT Delhi and IIM Calcutta, yet renounced a corporate career to pursue God-realization. His teachings integrate ancient Vedic wisdom with practical guidance for modern life, making spirituality accessible and transformative for seekers across the globe.

Chez Filippini and Dr. Luke Arredondo continue their Catholic Social Teaching series by discussing Pope Pius XI's 1931 encyclical "Quadragesimo Anno", a follow-up to Pope Leo XIII's "Rerum Novarum". They explore the document's key themes, including subsidiarity, labor relations, wages, and critiques of both capitalism and socialism. The encyclical emphasizes the need for a moral approach to economic life, condemns the excesses of individualist capitalism and socialist ideologies, and calls for a return to gospel principles.
Don't ignore satan - answer him. When Satan sends thoughts our way, many times we ignore them instead of answering with the Word. The enemy's thoughts and temptations don't simply disappear by ignoring them. They continue to build until the enemy traps us. It is vital to answer the enemy with the Word until we get the victory.

Maayaa is illusion. Moha is delusion. A magician doing card tricks is a master of illusion. To believe their illusions are real is delusion. Energy manifests as matter. This means matter isn't really solid. You could call it an illusion. Some meditative traditions base their teachings on this principle. Kashmiri Shaivism says the illusion is real.

#379 In this podcast episode, Guy welcomed Geoffrey Hoppe, a multidimensional communications researcher known for his unique journey from aviation business to channelling entities like Tobias and St. Germain. The conversation explored themes such as spiritual awakening, the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in human consciousness, and the concept of global consciousness splitting. Geoffrey shared his personal experiences and insights into the evolving relationship between technology and spirituality, highlighting the transformative potential of AI in accelerating human enlightenment and fostering deep metaphysical connections. About Geoffrey: The early spiritual curiosity of a young man was all but forgotten as he served a few years in the US Army as a Public Information Specialist at the NASA Ames Research Center (Mountain View, California), and then stepped into the business world. After finding his way to senior management positions in several advertising agencies, Geoffrey started his own marketing company in Dallas, Texas at the ripe old age of 28. Later on, he co-founded an aviation telecommunications company (provider of Internet services for business jets and commercial airlines, now known as Gogo), serving as Vice President of Sales and Marketing until 2001. In a stroke of ironic prescience, Geoffrey holds three patents for multidimensional telecommunications technologies, as well as numerous trademarks and copyrights.

(Group Learning Program) - Guided Breathing Mindfulness Meditation and Student QuestionsBreathing Mindfulness Meditation was the primary form of meditation employed by The Buddha to attain Enlightenment. There are many aspects of The Path to Enlightenment that one would need to learn and practice with guidance from a Teacher, however, Breathing Mindfulness Meditation should be among the top priorities for any Practitioner aspiring to attain Enlightenment.The goal of Breathing Mindfulness Meditation is to develop “Right Mindfulness”, “Right Concentration”, and to eliminate the unwholesome root of craving/desire/attachment.All discontentedness is caused by craving/desire/attachment so it is important to train the mind to not have craving/desire/attachment as part of "Developing Your Life Practice”.In this Podcast, David will guide you in a Breathing Mindfulness Meditation session and will accept questions from Students to help you develop your meditation practice and progress forward on The Path to Enlightenment.——-Daily Wisdom - Walking The Path with The BuddhaDedicated to the education of Gotama Buddha's Teachings to attain Enlightenment.https://www.BuddhaDailyWisdom.com(See our website for online learning, courses, and retreats.)Group Learning Program - LIVE Interactive Online Classes, Book, Audiobook, Videos, Podcast and Personal Guidancehttps://bit.ly/GroupLearningProgram|The Words of The Buddha - Pali Canon in English Study Grouphttps://bit.ly/PaliCanonStudyGroupFREE Book - Developing a Life Practice: The Path That Leads to Enlightenmenthttps://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/freebuddhabooksFacebook: https://bit.ly/DailyWisdom-FacebookYouTube: https://bit.ly/DailyWisdom-YoutubePodcast: https://bit.ly/DailyWisdom-PodcastSupport our efforts to share The Teachings of Gotama Buddha with you and worldwide for all people using this link.https://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/supportbuddha#buddhism #learnbuddhism #buddhismclass #buddhismcourse #enlightenment #awakening #dhamma #dharma #buddha #meditation #meditationretreat #meditationcourse #meditationclass

In this week's show Lian is joined once again by Mike Bais. Mike is Lian's own Kabbalah teacher, a physiotherapist, counsellor, university lecturer and author, also having had his own practice for many years. He is a trained priest in the esoteric christian tradition, which lead him to follow the mystical side of this lineage called the A.S.A. (Apostolic Succession of Arimathea). He believes that the Teachings of Christ are universal and should not be limited to a religious structure. His esoteric training comes from the western mystery tradition and the Toledano Kabbalah. Living in the Netherlands (Utrecht) he extensively worked with teachers and groups in the UK. After some decades of study and practice in the western esoteric tradition, the inner work came together in these three streams or disciplines that make up the Circle of Avalon. Mike sees it as his life's work to teach these traditions to whomever wishes to receive them. He is a mystic and teacher by nature and through his groups, individual sessions, workshops and writing, transmits them in the most pure and true way he knows. Mike is the author of 3 books: Paths on the Tree of Wisdom – A course in 21st Century Kabbalah, A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 1 and A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 2. In this episode, Lian and Mike look at manifestation through its deeper metaphysical roots. They touch on how morality shapes what we bring into being, the psyche as the passage between the unseen and the physical, and the limits of trying to manifest from the surface of the mind alone. Together they reflect on how unconscious manifestation plays out all the time and why consciousness changes everything. They look at what actually helps: focus that holds steady in a distracted world, alignment across mind, body, and soul, and devotion to a principle that keeps us centred when life pulls us apart. Listen if you've ever questioned why vision boards only go so far, wondered what really makes manifestation work, or felt the tension between your desires and what serves something greater. 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 the psyche acts as a filter for manifestation, shaping not just what we want but why we want it Why alignment across body, psyche, and soul is the difference between scattered wishing and true creation What happens when focus and devotion become your North Star in a culture set up to scatter attention Resources and stuff spoken about: Mike's websites: http://www.circleofavalon.nl http://www.kabbalahmysticalschool.com Join UNIO, the Academy of the Soul: This is for the old souls in this new world… Discover your kin & unite with your soul's calling to truly live your myth.

Listeners will discover how these energies interact to form the fabric of existence and how the soul, though bound by matter, remains eternally connected to the Divine. Swamiji explains that while the material body is governed by lower nature, the soul belongs to Krishna's superior energy and is meant to transcend worldly limitations.

Swamiji explains that while many paths exist—meditation, knowledge, rituals—only the bhakta, the loving devotee, truly establishes a relationship with the Divine. Through heartfelt examples and scriptural clarity, this episode unveils Krishna's assurance: that those who practice devotion with sincerity and faith are dearest to Him.
