What creates diplomacy, and why does it seem so absent when societies need it most? Thom explores Dhanur Veda, the Vedic body of knowledge concerned with governance, diplomacy, defense, and the awakening of collective potential. He explains why the Vedic approach is diagnostic rather than prescriptive, and why lasting change begins not with controlling behavior, but with raising consciousness. Listen to or watch this episode for a deeper look at how individual dharma shapes leadership, community, and society.Episode Highlights[00:45] Four Vedas and Their Branches[03:07] The Bow as Consciousness[04:47] Governance Begins With Dharma[07:23] Diplomacy Follows Receptivity[09:27] Defense, Not War[10:52] From Family to Society[13:12] Sanskrit Flow and the Sandhi Rule[14:47] Q - Has this been tried before?[15:01] A - Diagnostic, Not Prescriptive[19:40] The Vedas Measure Alignment[21:10] Q - Is this true of architecture as well?[21:14] A - Shaping Space Shapes Consciousness[26:10] Ayurveda Works the Same Way[28:34] Q - What restores diplomatic skill?[29:04] A - Begin With Your Own Example[30:45] Leadership Mirrors the Collective[33:57] Confusion Breeds Corruption[37:03] Change Society by ExampleUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Why would a naked yogi be received as a blessing, and why would a great master decline a title others might revere? In this second part of the two-part Masters of the Tradition series (watch or listen to Part 1 here), Thom answers questions about Shukadeva, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the place of women in the tradition, and the meaning behind Guru Deva's throne and parasol. Along the way, he opens a wider view of the Shankaracharya tradition, its stages of life, its hidden maternal lineage, and the cultural world from which these symbols emerge. Listen to or watch this episode to explore the stories, symbolism, and living context behind the tradition.Episode Highlights[00:45] Q - Who is the blue-skinned master with no robes?[00:56] A - Shukadeva and the Demigods[05:00] Unity Consciousness and Fearlessness[09:19] A Naked Yogi as Blessing[11:52] Q - Why did Maharishi Mahesh Yogi not become a Mahamandaleshwar?[11:56] A - The Four Stages of Life[16:07] Maharishi as a Forest Dweller[18:47] Accepting the Mahamandaleshwar Title[19:53] Q - What role do women hold here?[20:03] A - Paralakshmi's Injunction[24:14] Saraswati and the Hidden Lineage[26:20] Q - What is Guru Deva's throne?[26:34] A - The Throne of Jyotir Math[31:24] A Badge of RankUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Velkommen til siste episoden av Bak Fasaden – Sommer best of.Noen historier blir værende hos oss lenge etter at samtalen er over. Historier som utfordrer oss, berører oss og minner oss på hvor mye et menneske kan bære.I denne episoden får du høre utdrag fra to samtaler som har gjort sterkt inntrykk. Først møter du Kirsti, mammaen til Mina og Mille fra episode 215, som deler den hjerteskjærende historien om døtrenes liv, tapet av dem begge altfor tidlig, og hvordan hun har forsøkt å finne en vei videre gjennom en sorg ingen foreldre skal måtte oppleve.Deretter får du høre Marius fra episode 74, som forteller om en barndom preget av alvorlige overgrep og vold fra sin egen far. Han deler hvordan det han ble utsatt for har satt spor, og om motet som krevdes for å bryte stillheten og fortelle sin historie.Dette er to sterke og krevende samtaler, men også historier om kjærlighet, overlevelse og menneskelig styrke. For noen kan innholdet oppleves vanskelig eller triggende, så husk å ta vare på deg selv mens du lytter, og ta pauser om det trengs.Takk for at du er med på å gi disse historiene plass, og for at du fortsetter å lytte til Bak Fasaden også i sommer ☀️Episoden er sponset av TM klinikken og TM legetjenester i Fredrikstad.

Dr. Cristine Hull is an integrative mental health practitioner, author, and developer of the Zero Point Meridian technique. With a Master's in Psychology and a Ph.D. in Natural Medicine, she brings over two decades of experience as a substance abuse counselor, school psychologist, and private practitioner. Drawing from her own journey through depression, anxiety, addiction, and a profound spiritual awakening, Cristine works at the intersection of brain chemistry, energy medicine, and the quantum field. She is the creator of the Four Bodies model and trains practitioners in tools that address the physical, vital, mental, and quantum levels of healing. Based in northern Utah, she continues to teach, write, and guide people toward deeper wholeness through her work at Health, Healing & Wholeness.In this episode, Cristine and I cover a wide-ranging conversation that moves from brain chemistry and addiction into spiritual awakening, energy medicine, and what real healing actually requires.Cristine shares her personal journey through severe depression, anxiety, and substance use, and how those experiences led her into decades of work as a counselor and integrative practitioner. She introduces her Four Bodies model (physical, vital, mental, and quantum) and explains why most lasting change has to address more than just the physical level. The conversation explores sugar as part of the narcotic continuum, the difference between dopamine and endorphin addiction, the spiral of recovery she developed while teaching in a jail, and the powerful spiritual experience she had on Yom Kippur that shifted everything. We also dig into entities and generational energy, the development of her Zero Point Meridian technique, the “neutral game” for quieting the mental body, and why conventional mental health often falls short with personality disorders and chronic pain. Cristine closes by pointing back to the deeper truth underneath the endorphin chase: capital-L Love.Timestamps0:00 – Elevator pitch / “junkyard love” framing and four bodies intro1:30 – Four Bodies for Medicines ebook and physical vs. vital/mental/quantum3:00 – Wind analogy for spirit/effects on the physical body4:30 – Personal history: chemical imbalance, depression, anxiety, substances6:30 – First career in substance-abuse counseling; self-medication insight8:00 – Serotonin, carbs, Potatoes Not Prozac, wheat sensitivity discovery9:30 – Endorphins as “inner orphan” / morphine parallel; sugar as narcotic continuum11:00 – Dopamine vs. endorphins; cocaine, bipolar diagnosis, mastering the middle path13:00 – Love addiction, romantic craving, spiral model (abstinence → moderation → attainment)15:00 – Jail curriculum development; 20 years clean vs. relationship patterns still unresolved16:30 – Yom Kippur night/boyfriend breakup; Day of Atonement context18:00 – Light shaft experience through the crown/spine; “whole and complete through divine connection”19:30 – Kundalini as vital-body tool (chakras, meridians, aura)21:00 – Growing up Christian, leaving religion, seeking freedom from guilt and pain22:30 – Cocaine phase; friend returning from overdose funeral; entity/attachment theory24:30 – “Perverse energy” (Quantum University language); generational clearing26:00 – First Kundalini session clearing grandfather's heavy emotion27:30 – EFT training (2002–2003, Gary Craig); shift to private practice29:00 – Zero Point Meridian (ZPM) development; claimed superiority data vs. EMDR31:00 – Mental body chaos of positive/negative thinking; neutrality / “neutral game”34:00 – Yoga entry via client accountability + Baron Baptiste Journey into Power36:00 – Gap between stimulus and response; mind-body necessity of yoga37:30 – TM interest; Vipassana documentary (Doing Time, Doing Vipassana)39:00 – Mahasati movement meditation; fear that stillness = non-existence / black hole41:00 – Moving through zero; zero-point field → unified field; John Hagelin / Frank Kinslow52:00 – Limits of conventional mental health on personality disorders (narcissism, borderline, ego structures)54:00 – Spiritual/quantum solution as transformative where pills and talk therapy fall short56:00 – Quantum Solutions Masterclass / ego-structure component57:30 – Chronic pain and the pain body (Eckhart Tolle); noticing pain-free body parts as anchors59:00 – Endorphins at quantum level = capital-L Love; closing gratitudeKEYWORDS:Four bodies model, Zero Point Meridian, ZPM technique, quantum body, vital body, endorphin continuum, sugar addiction recovery, love addiction spiral, attainment model, perverse energy, generational clearing, Yom Kippur awakening, Kundalini vital body, neutral game mindfulness, Quantum Wholeness Meditation, Love Solve Method, Frequency Formulas, personality disorder spiritual solution, pain body Eckhart Tolle, brain chemistry natural balance, EFT to ZPM evolution, Cache Valley healer, integrative mental health Utah.Checkout more Cristine here! :Website: Cristine HullYoutube - Health, Healing, & Wholeness - YouTubeInstagram - Author Cristine Hull (@cristine.author)LinkedIn - Cristine Hull PhD LinkedinFaceBook - Author Cristine Hull • FacebookQuotes from Cristine in the episode:“Love is an answer.

The trick was to realize when I was down, there was some work to do…”“Really, all that matters is that you are whole and complete through a divine connection. And you bring your whole self to it.”“I believe the person who overdosed came with her and walked through the door… this entity… attached to me.”“If we try to use the mind to correct the mind, we can get just a lot of chaos… the solution… is neutrality.”“There's not a lot in mental health and psychology to solve personality disorders… the problem is because there's not really a spiritual solution in the mental health field.”“Notice where you're not in pain - tune into even if it's your hair… their hair doesn't hurt, the tip of their nose probably doesn't hurt…”“What people are looking for in the endorphin experience is love.

In this "Community Spotlight Edition" of "Ask the Expert," Landy Thomas of SRNA spoke with Cindy Ranii about living with transverse myelitis (TM). Cindy described her diagnostic journey, rehabilitation, accessibility, and financial challenges [00:53]. She discussed returning to work briefly before retiring, emphasizing the importance of support, love, and community [08:51]. Cindy shared her path from wheelchair tennis to international wheelchair table tennis, and her pursuit of Paralympic qualification through point-based global competition [13:17]. She also discussed writing and self-publishing her book, Parakeet Races and Other Stories, inspired by family memories and her experience with TM [31:58].Cindy Ranii is a 79-year-old retired educator who lives with her wife Shelly and service dog Hollis in Santa Cruz, California. In 2005, her life changed drastically when she was diagnosed with transverse myelitis (TM). Within four days, she went from golfing, playing tennis, and working vigorously as the Superintendent of a local high school district to being a paraplegic (T-3 complete).Six months after her diagnosis she was back at work, using a wheelchair fulltime. Eighteen months later she decided to retire to have enough energy to enjoy her family (four children and 13 grandchildren) and to rebuild an active lifestyle. She competed in wheelchair tennis and then pursued table tennis with her eyes on the Paralympics. Currently she is training to compete in the 2028 LA Paralympics in wheelchair table tennis, saying, “My quest is to be the oldest Paralympian in history. It's a long shot; but why not!”Cindy has written numerous articles regarding living with a disability for New Mobility Magazine and authored a memoir, Parakeet Races and Other Stories, which is available through Amazon: https://rebrand.ly/cindy-ranii 00:00 Welcome00:53 Cindy's Diagnosis Overview01:37 Early Symptoms and ER Rush06:07 Hospital Transfer and TM Diagnosis08:51 Rehab Reality and New Life11:27 Accessibility Costs and Support13:17 Paralympic Table Tennis Quest17:52 Disability Community and Pride20:25 Finding Resilience Through Sport22:34 Mentors and New Athletic Path28:27 Work Return Then Retirement31:58 Writing Her Memoir37:09 Closing Reflections

What keeps a body of knowledge alive across thousands of years without losing its purity? In this first part of a two-part series, Thom traces the Guru Parampara, the lineage of the Shankaracharya tradition, from Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and Guru Deva back through Vyasa, Shankara, and the ancient masters who carried Vedic knowledge forward. Along the way, he explores why preserving the purity of the teaching matters just as much as sharing it. This series also serves as a fitting prelude to upcoming Guru Purnima celebrations for 2026. You can find out more about Guru Purnima events near you by following this link: https://thomknoles.com/guru-purnima-2026/ Listen to or watch this episode to explore the tradition, the terminology, and the living provenance behind Vedic Meditation. Episode Highlights[00:45] How This Knowledge Arrived Here[04:02] Reading the Lineage in Stone[05:56] Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and Guru Deva[08:39] From Gaudapadacharya to Vyasa[10:57] The Meaning of 1008[13:00] The Lineage Before Vyasa[16:08] What Guru Parampara Means[18:47] Becoming an Initiator[20:51] Why Thom Wears a Silk Dhoti[23:55] The Meaning of Jai Guru Deva[27:36] Why Guru Purnima Matters[29:46] The Ceremony of GratitudeUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Debora MastersonTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Debora Masterson. Debora is an author who just released her debut novel! 'Freedom Quest: A Love Story' follows the story of Grace and Michael who fall in love in the mid 1960s, break up, get back together, and some bits of the incredible life that happens to them during the space between. This book is roughly 85% true according to the author. The character of Grace is Debora, and the character of Michael is Craig. Debora's real life soul mate Craig Ingraham was a musical phenom and a prolific songwriter. He also lost his way, fell into some rough circumstances, and even unwittingly joined a cult! This book is a wild ride. There are drugs, mayhem, love, loss, cults, music, dancing, and even some famous people. Available wherever you get books, 'Freedom Quest: A Love Story' is also in the process of being turned into an audiobook. There is also a companion Spotify playlist which has songs from the actual band Freedom Quest, recorded back in the early 1970s. In this episode, Debora shares some of her personal reasons for writing this book, some of the fun times between her and her soul mate, and some of the stuff that didn't quite make the book. We also take a bit of a dive into her experiences with transcendental meditation (TM), and even a local historical landmark that she helped save. Buy the book, listen to the playlist, and check out the short documentary that she & Craig made to honor their fallen friend in Vietnam.

There's never any shortage of characters on the world stage who demonstrate what appear to be anti-evolutionary behaviors, but what if the very forces that seem to obstruct life are part of what drives its evolution? In this follow-up episode on Ravana, the essential villain (you can find the first episode here), Thom responds to listener questions about adversity, the severity of rishis when creating consequences, the relevance of mythos for householders, the symbolic meaning of Ravana's 10 heads, and how to honestly evaluate our own Ravana-like actions. Along the way, he offers a Vedic view of resistance, showing how disruption, challenge, and even apparent destruction can serve the larger movement of growth and awakening. Listen or watch to explore how this perspective can change the way you meet the pressures of everyday life.Episode Highlights[00:45] Questions From Part One[01:11] Q - Is adversity needed for growth?[01:25] A - Evolution Requires Disruption[04:34] Near Extinction Drives Adaptation[06:57] Why Adversity Creates Rigor[10:37] Destroyers Get Destroyed[11:27] Q - Why are rishis so severe?[11:44] A - Resistance Can Look Extreme[15:25] Michelangelo And The Marble[18:53] Q - How is mythos relevant to householders?[19:15] A - Householder Life Meets Ravana[21:45] Elevational Theater In Life[24:20] Great Stories Reveal The Pattern[25:21] Pattern Recognition Makes Us Human[27:48] Humanity And Self-Destruction[29:08] Q - What do Ravana's 10 heads mean?[29:17] A - Formidability Through Many Forms[31:52] Ten Heads And Twenty Arms[33:26] A Different Form For Each Observer[34:27] Q - What's the best way for a new meditator to engage with mythos?[34:32] A - Enjoy The Story First[38:06] Learn The Deeper Meaning In Satsang[41:02] Q - How should we think about ourselves if we have served the Ravana function?[41:15] A - Evolution Includes A Lesser Past[43:53] Growth Comes From A Smaller Self Useful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

What if the villain is not outside evolution, but part of what gives it shape? In this first episode of a two-part exploration, Thom uses the characters of Ravana and Rama, from the epic Ramayana, to unpack Vedic mythos, dharma, and the surprising role of the antagonist in the unfoldment of consciousness. Along the way, he reframes mythology not as fantasy or fallacy, but as a way profound knowledge becomes relatable and alive. Listen or watch to explore why, in the Vedic worldview, even destructive forces may have a place in the larger movement of evolution. You can also watch this episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/3sGz4FP6LTwEpisode Highlights[00:45] What Mythos Really Means[05:32] Valmiki and the Ramayana[07:54] Conditions for an Avatar[10:18] Ravana Enters the Story[13:06] Ravana's Origin in Vaikuntha[16:52] What Is a Rakshasa?[19:12] Dharma and the Flow of Life[23:31] Villainy Gives Shape to Heroes[24:59] Nothing Is Anti-EvolutionaryUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

There are many voices in the drinks industry. A cacophony of opinion, thought, and ego fill our earwaves with things they want us to know. Many voices carry weight, others carry the aural equivalent of a sluice gate being opened into our front rooms. But now is not the time for more of this, no. Now IS the time for questions to be asked, truths to be faced, and trousers to be let out. Ferg and Lee have finally, and under much duress, opened their mailboxes and inbags, and read, perused, and utterly ignored the millions of letters that have been flooding in.   It's been quite the task to whittle these questions down, but our hosts have intrepidly sought out the letters that pose the most interesting and challenging thought experiments. Their will be some expected correspondents, and some truly surprising ones. Here we don't tell you what we want you to hear, we're not narcissistic enough for that. No, we answer YOUR questions.   So, sit in the big black chair, sit only in the spotlight, and your time starts on Thursday morning when TM&TM: Oat Milk hits the podocean.

Have we met before? Is it possible to be over apologetic? And if Cosmic Consciousness is so special, then what's the function of God Consciousness and Unity Consciousness? In this Ask Thom Anything episode, Thom responds to guest questions on when an apology is appropriate, how Cosmic Consciousness differs from God Consciousness and Unity Consciousness, and whether past-life connections continue into this life. He explores responsibility without sorrow, the refinement of perception through higher states of consciousness, and the braided nature of lifetimes. Listen or watch to understand the grounded Vedic perspective on relationship, enlightenment, and continuity across lives. Episode Highlights[00:45] Q - How should we apologize?[01:08] A - Only Apologize if You're Sorry[02:15] Responsibility vs Sorrow[04:55] Q - How does Cosmic Consciousness Compare with God and Unity Consciousnesses?[05:08] A - Understanding What Is Relevant[07:13] Senses Refine Beyond Cosmic Consciousness[09:01] From Almost Self to Self[10:48] Love Is Recognition of Self[13:50] Q - Do past lives reconnect in this life?[14:05] A - Lifetimes Follow Braided Threads Useful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Does Nature really need us to organize forest floors? And do we all suffer from obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) to some extent? We often think of OCD as being a personal affliction, but as Thom explains in this episode, it's much broader than that, reflecting a general lack of trust in Nature's organizing power. Thom explores OCD through the lenses of entropy, control, addiction, and inner order, and how we can collectively display OCD-like traits.  Thom explains how Vedic Meditation can complement existing treatments by helping the brain settle into a more orderly state., and he also shares a simple coming-to-your-senses technique that can help quiet obsessive momentum in the moment. Listen or watch to learn how a deeper experience of inner order can change the way we relate to the world around us. Episode Highlights[00:45] The Search for Order[04:32] Heat Reveals Perceived Disorder[09:24] Nature Orders the Forest[12:50] When Order Turns Dysfunctional[16:22] Meditation Restores Inner Order[20:21] Q - What quiets obsessive compulsive thoughts?[20:36] A - Nature Knows Best How to Organize[22:50] Do Less, Accomplish More[25:53] Come to Your Senses[28:31] Q - Is OCD similar to addiction?[28:42] A - Addiction and External Control[33:11] Growing Field Independence You can also watch this episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/PjWnIbONr3I Useful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

She was 13. A girl she trusted convinced her she had a gift. She stood up and sang in front of 200 people and only found out afterward that everyone was laughing. That moment didn't just embarrass her. It rewrote her entire script: be whoever you have to be to belong. What followed was a decade of bulimia, drugs, self-hatred, and disappearing into everyone else's version of acceptable. What came after that is why she's on this show. Jennifer K. Hill is an entrepreneur, executive coach, and connector of extraordinary humans and this conversation goes far deeper than business. George and Jennifer unpack the real cost of losing yourself, what it actually takes to come back, and the daily practices that make self-love something you live, not just talk about. Raw, spiritual, and deeply human. What You'll Learn In This Episode: How a single moment of public humiliation can rewrite a person's entire identity What it took Jennifer to go from chronic self-destruction to genuine self-love The Golden Triangle of Connection and why self-connection must come first How to hear God's voice and tell it apart from your ego The Heart Focus Breathing technique you can use anywhere, anytime Why most "self-love" content is actually sophisticated distraction How to empirically test your intuition and trust it more Key Takeaways: ✔️The script "be whoever you have to be to belong" is written young and costs decades to rewrite. ✔️Connection to self is the foundation. Without it, connection to others and to purpose collapses like a house of cards. ✔️The ego yells. God whispers. Stillness is how you hear the difference. ✔️Hug yourself daily. Tell yourself you are loved, cherished, and enough. Science supports it. So does 20+ years of Jennifer's client work. ✔️Heart Focus Breathing (HeartMath) can shift you out of fight-or-flight and into compassion in minutes and it's accessible anywhere. ✔️Your higher brain cannot function until your lower brain first feels safe. All deep work starts there. ✔️Test your intuition empirically. Ask questions you can validate. The more you check, the more you trust. ✔️Self-love isn't soft.

Dr. Judy Morgan - integrative veterinarian, author of nine books, and one of the leading voices in holistic pet health - joins Dr. Will Cole to pull back the curtain on what conventional veterinary medicine has been getting catastrophically wrong. They cover what's actually in commercial kibble (including why it may legally contain euthanasia solution), why annual vaccinations are largely unnecessary when titer testing exists, why spaying and neutering before six months is the hormonal equivalent of making your puppy postmenopausal overnight, and what flea and tick pesticides are actually doing inside your pet's nervous system. Dr. Morgan also explains traditional Chinese veterinary medicine food therapy, the five element constitutions for pets, the supplements worth knowing about, and the raw food movement that has the big pet food companies very nervous.
