Fiorenza Palmerio Gancia"Il terzo luogo"Il mio educatore Gabriele D'AnnunzioNino Aragno Editorewww.ninoaragnoeditore.itIl Terzo Luogo è quel luogo, al di là dello spazio e del tempo, che custodiamo dentro di noi e che sperimentiamo quando, abbandonando il nostro ego, ci connettiamo con qualcosa di più grande che possiamo definire come il divino, la coscienza illimitata, Dio, il Brahman delle Upanishad, il nostro Sé superiore. Quando accediamo a questo spazio, luogo di salvezza e di guarigione, affrontiamo meglio le difficoltà della vita e troviamo una bussola che ci guida saggiamente nel nostro cammino.Fiorenza Palmerio Gancia , laureata in lingue e letterature straniere e moderne, vive e lavora a Torino nel campo dei gioielli e delle pietre preziose. È appassionata di Gabriele d'Annunzio. Partendo da Gabriele d'Annunzio come maestro di vita, amante della bellezza, della natura, della poesia, dell'arte e degli antichi testi indiani, Fiorenza Palmerio Gancia in un momento difficile della sua vita, dopo aver perso la sua adorata sorella Alessia, ritrova la forza nelle poesie del poeta, nei disegni e nei dipinti di Leonardo da Vinci, tra le pagine eterne della Divina Commedia e delle antiche Upanishad fino ad arrivare ai simboli contemporanei creati da Michelangelo Pistoletto. Quando raggiungiamo questo stato di elevata coscienza, quello che Dante avrebbe definito con il termine “Trasumanar”, sviluppiamo un'intelligenza spirituale, o creativa, quell'unione tra mente e cuore, che rappresenta il massimo grado di intelligenza che l'uomo possa raggiungere e che oggi più che mai ha il compito di preservare.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Is this true based on the Hindu sacred texts (Kena Upanishad here), or has this been an interpolation over the centuries?Sections: 4:33 Brahman and Agni8:38 Brahman and Vayu10:41 Brahman and Indra12:27 Brahman Unveils14:47 Brahman Reveals19:16 ConclusionDownload MP3 and PDF: https://tinyurl.com/5n99wvrvLinks: Podcast (apple): https://goo.gl/CM4TmV Podcast (android): https://goo.gl/ovLmps Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/bridgingbeliefs Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BridgingBeliefs9 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bridgingbeliefs9/ X: https://x.com/BridgingBeliefs The Official Bahá'í site: http://www.bahai.org/Support the show

Maharishikaa reveals to Anand one mystery of sexual mastery, as he finds himself fighting lust. He asks, how to overcome lust and if he should give in and experience it till it gets out of his system, or should he learn to master these urges? How can he approach one woman without offending another? Maharishikaa says it's rather normal for Anand to have these feelings of lust based on his age, and he must also experience it without guilt. However, it is essential to not be a victim, but rather a master of this sexual energy. She illustrates the different faces of sexuality in the various realms of consciousness, exemplifying it as love in the emotional. As this potent sexual energy is transmuted, it changes its expression. Maharishikaa speaks about the practices of energy transmutation and how to transmute sexual energy, which can be learned, if he's serious and willing to invest time, effort, and energy into it. In the meanwhile, Maharishikaa shows him how he can start by simply observing and becoming aware of this sexual energy, which resides in and below the genital area, and try to feel this frothing pool of energy that is within his body. Addressing his dilemma of which woman to approach, in fear of offending another – Maharishikaa speaks to the underlying problem. She shows him that if he's present and centered, whoever he approaches, he will not offend the others, as it comes from a space of decisiveness. Appreciating his wish to not hurt the women he encounters, Maharishikaa warns him to protect himself from the curses of heartbroken women. The only way is by learning to center himself and acting from a space of Truth. To his question on whether he should connect with those with similar ethnicity as himself, Maharishikaa clearly states that the more transformed an individual, the less they are impacted by the genetic makeup of another, and are able to be around people of all ethnicities. #Maharishikaa #FightingLust #SexualEnergy #Sexuality Aaryaa Maharishikaa Preeti Maiyaa, is a revolutionary female mystic who fearlessly dares to demystify spirituality in her unrelenting call to realize Self, and act from Source.

In this profound episode of The Brand Called You, Swami Mukundananda—spiritual luminary and bestselling author—dives deep into the Isha Vasyopanishad. From reconciling materialism and spirituality to redefining karma, detachment, and contentment, Swamiji reminds us: true fulfillment begins when we realize… we have enough.00:29- About Swami MukundanandaSwami Mukundananda is a world-renowned teacher of Spirituality, Yoga, and Meditation.He completed engineering and management from two world-renowned institutes: Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) and Indian Institute of Management (IIM). He is the founder of the yogic system called JKYog also known as Yoga for the Body, Mind, and Soul. He is also an author of a book titled Ishavasya Upanishad.
In this masterpiece, Maharishikaa deconstructs traditional approaches to neo advaita, non duality, spiritual awakening, and surrender, bringing clarity to Christina and Peter as they grapple with their respective dilemmas. While Christina struggles with the contradiction between surrender and the premise “I am the Soul,” Peter seeks to understand the connection between surrender and karma (action). Guiding Christina through the logical flaws inherent in a spiritual practice dominated by the statement, “I am That,” Maharishikaa explains that the very act of making such a declaration proves the existence and role of the body. She attributes identification with cosmic Soul—‘That'—to transcendental experiences that arose during the post-Vedic spiritual explorations of the cosmos, which influenced the philosophy of enlightenment and led seekers to experience a loss of personal identity. Ushering in a groundbreaking perspective, Maharishikaa unveils a radically new practice, revealing that the future of spirituality lies in This-ness. She explains that this practice begins by acknowledging, “I am This,” and embracing everything the body is and does. The ‘I,' now rooted in grounded identity, surrenders to the Soul within. Maharishikaa brilliantly illustrates the duality in surrender through the Leela—the divine dance—between Radha and Krishna (the seeker and the sought), where one surrenders to the other. This sacred play would cease to exist under the premise, “I am the Soul.” She invites Christina to reflect: if she identifies with the Soul, how does surrender come into play, and what is the purpose of embodiment? Compassionately addressing Christina's realization that her prior concepts and practices no longer align, Maharishikaa guides her toward true surrender, which ultimately leads to discovering the Soul within. Addressing Peter's perception of surrender as non-action, Maharishikaa explains that surrender is rooted in action. Peter, as the ‘I,' actively bends in surrender to the Soul, especially in moments when the ego seeks control. The more he acts based on the Soul's Impulse, the more joy he experiences; the more he resists the Truth, the more suffering he experiences. Maharishikaa unmasks the origin of the pride Peter frequently experiences—uncertainty stemming from fear. She propounds that fear dissipates when one is connected with the Truth. She urges him to take up this practice of surrender and discernment, approaching it with love, yearning for Truth, and the intent to be its instrument. Maharishikaa assures him that as he surrenders to the Truth, he will experience profound joy. #Maharishikaa #NeoAdvaita #NonDuality #Enlightenment #Philosophy #IAmThis Aaryaa Maharishikaa Preeti Maiyaa, is a revolutionary female mystic who fearlessly dares to demystify spirituality in her unrelenting call to realize Self, and act from Source.

Quando accediamo a questo spazio, luogo di salvezza e di guarigione, affrontiamo meglio le difficoltà della vita e troviamo una bussola che ci guida saggiamente nel nostro cammino.Fiorenza Palmerio Gancia , laureata in lingue e letterature straniere e moderne, vive e lavora a Torino nel campo dei gioielli e delle pietre preziose. È appassionata di Gabriele d'Annunzio. Partendo da Gabriele d'Annunzio come maestro di vita, amante della bellezza, della natura, della poesia, dell'arte e degli antichi testi indiani, Fiorenza Palmerio Gancia in un momento difficile della sua vita, dopo aver perso la sua adorata sorella Alessia, ritrova la forza nelle poesie del poeta, nei disegni e nei dipinti di Leonardo da Vinci, tra le pagine eterne della Divina Commedia e delle antiche Upanishad fino ad arrivare ai simboli contemporanei creati da Michelangelo Pistoletto. Quando raggiungiamo questo stato di elevata coscienza, quello che Dante avrebbe definito con il termine “Trasumanar”, sviluppiamo un'intelligenza spirituale, o creativa, quell'unione tra mente e cuore, che rappresenta il massimo grado di intelligenza che l'uomo possa raggiungere e che oggi più che mai ha il compito di preservare.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Last week we gave this lecture comparing two seemingly different views, the Vedantic claim that “you are not the body nor is the body yours” and the Tantrik position that the “body is a sacred site in which the universe occurs”. At first glance, these seem like contradictory views: transcendence vs immanence. But in actuality, they are complimentary. A better formulation would be this: “you are not just this limited and transient body; you are actually the entire universe embodied!”Having thoroughly proved this point using two texts, the Tattīriya Upanishad from the Vedantic tradition and the Virupaksha Pancashika from the Tantrik tradition, it is now time to take the discussion further and paint with some finer brush strokes:As promised last week, we will take tonight's lecture to discuss the cakras, nādis, kundalinīand how to harness and channelize prāna…all that fun Tantrik stuff!At the end of the talk, we suggest 5 Tantrik embodiment practices that you can take up right away!Support the Show.
Today is a very sacred day: Nāga Panchami, the Day of the Serpents! Vishnu reposes on a serpent couch named Ananta. Ananta means "un-ending", i.e Infinite. In the Taittīriya Upanishad, Brahman, the Absolute Reality is described as सत्यम् ज्ञानम् अनन्तम् ब्रह्म "satyam jñānam anantam Brahma": that which is Existence, Consciousness and Infinity. Now you might have heard a different formulation of Brahman: Sat-Cid-Ānanda, Existence-Consciousness-Bliss. Notice how Infinity is synonymous with Bliss? As we learn in the Chandogya Upanishad, यो वै भूमा तत्सुखं नाल्पे सुखमस्ति "yo vai bhūmi tat sukham, nalpe sukham asti!": Joy is vast-nes, joy is Infinity!! There is no joy in limitation!Now, taking all of this from the perspective of Shaiva Tantra: this Infinitely Free Awareness which is Innately Blissful is Śiva! God is Vimarśa-Śakti, Śiva's self-reflexivivity, i.e Awareness Reposing in Itself. This is why Vishnu (i.e, God, I.e Vimarśa) "reposes" in his serpent couch, who is called the Infinite (Consciousness). In a Shaiva sense, he is in a state of svātmaviśrantih: self-respose. This is liberation!Patañjali, the founder of Yoga philosophy is considered by our tradition to be the incarnation of the Ananta, Vishnu's serpent couch and so he is the perfect yogi, reposing in his svabhāva, his essence nature and from that arises his profound teachings on Yoga, Grammar and Medicine. Abhinavaguptapada, is known as the "new" (abhinava) serpent (guptapada) because building upon the foundations of Yoga and Samkhya, he takes the Shaiva tradition to whole new heights with his unique presentation of the Trika doctrine! Lakshmana, Rāma's brother and Rāmanūja, the founder of Viśishtadvaita Vada are also both seen as incarnations of Ananta, this Great Serpent. On a personal note, my kula devi on my Mother's side is Nageshwarī, a form of Mariamman (Kālī) to whom my grandfather was deeply devoted. He was a lifelong practitioner of Shakta Tantra who took mahāsamādhi (i.e kicked the bucket!) in the sanctum sanctorum of our family snake temple. योगेन चित्तस्य पदेन वाचां । मलं शरीरस्य च वैद्यकेन ॥ योऽपाकरोत्तमं प्रवरं मुनीनां । पतञ्जलिं प्राञ्जलिरानतोऽस्मि ॥ आबहु पुरुषाकारं। शङ्खचक्रासि धारिणं॥ सहस्र शीरसं श्वेतं। प्रनमामि पतञ्जलिम्॥ yogena cittasya padena vācāṁ । malaṁ śarīrasya ca vaidyakena ॥ yo'pākarottamaṁ pravaraṁ munīnāṁ । patañjaliṁ prāñjalirānato'smi ॥ ābahu puruṣākāraṁ śaṅkha cakrāsi dhāriṇaṁ sahasra śīrasaṁ śvetaṁ pranamāmi patañjalim Yoga, for the mind Grammar, for the speech, Medicine for the impurities of the body, I bow to that great sage Patañjali who has given all these! Pure spirit incarnate in form, Holding the conch, discuss and sword I bow to Patanjali, that thousand headed white (cobra)!अनंतं वासुकीं शेषं पद्मनाभं च कंबलम् शंखपालं धृतराष्ट्रं च तक्षकं कालियं तथा एतानि नव नामानि नागानाम् च महात्मन: सायंकाले पठेन्नित्यं प्रात:काले विशेषत: तस्य विषभयं नास्ति सर्वत्र विजयी भवेत् anaṃtaṃ vāsukīṃ śeṣaṃ padmanābhaṃ ca kaṃbalam śaṃkhapālaṃ dhṛtarāṣṭraṃ ca takṣakaṃ kāliyaṃ tathā etāni nava nāmāni nāgānām ca mahātmanah: sāyaṃkāle paṭhennityaṃ prātakāle viśeṣatah: tasya viṣabhayaṃ nāsti sarvatra vijayī bhavet Ananta, Vāsukī, Śesha, Padmanābha and Kambala Śankhapāla, Drstarāshtra, Takshaka and Kāliya: These are the 9 great Serpents: I bow to them all! If (this mantra) is recited always, especially at dusk and at dawn, all poisons and fear will be destroyed and one becomes victorious everywhere!Support the Show.
This body inevitably grows old, becomes sick and dies. But do I die with the death of the body? In what sense is this body really "me"? In what sense is it really "mine"? In almost every spiritual tradition in the world, the answer to those questions is "no! You do not die with the death of the body. You are an eternal spirit, One with God, and in no sense are you the body nor is the body yours!" What a liberating teaching! If I know this about myself, then, I know this about others too and so I will no longer mourn the death of the body as the death of my loved ones! This is of course Krishna's opening philosophical teaching to Arjuna in the beginning of Chapter II of the Gītā. To prove that you are not the body nor is the body yours, we gave no less than 19 arguments to demonstrate this fact for you, right now, right here, in the light of your own experience:https://youtu.be/7b7g9mDWnLMBut you know, if this teaching is not properly understood, it can easily lead to a kind of repression or a sort of dissociation. So to distinguish genuine spiritual realization (and the freedom that arises therefrom), from an unhealthy dissociation/spiritual by-passing, we gave this lecture:https://youtu.be/ClXyxXccBssNow, those of you who have been studying the Tantrik tradition probably know that the body is emphasized as a sacred site of spiritual opportunity. In Tantra, the body is seen as a microcosm representing the macrocosm. Nay, the body IS the macrocosm in which the entire universe appears. How then do you resolve the seeming contradiction between these more "transcendalist" notions that "you are not the body/the body is not yours" vs the more "immanent" Tantrik claims that you are embodied as the whole Universe?In this lecture, we review some of the material from the previous lectures we gave on this subject (links above) and then present two models of embodiment, a Vedantic one from the Taittīriya Upanishad and a Tantrik one from the Virupaksha Pancashika to make the case that "you are not THIS body that you take yourself to be; you are in fact, the entire Universe embodied!" Finally, we offer 4 yoga practices to help you transcend this limited embodiment in favor of a more genuine one!This lecture is for Jaanam, who requested it! I hope you enjoyed it Mā!Jai MāLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST, Friday 10am PST and again Friday 6pm PST. There's Q&A right after the lectre. It is free and open to the public.

I have a favorite Upanishad that tells the story of two birds, two sweet friends, who dwell in the same self tree. This teachings reminds us that we are both, the one that is busy partaking in all the fruits of life (bitter and sweet) and the witness to all that is actually our higher Self.
Swami Sarvapriyananda teaches the Mundaka Upanishad which one of the major Upanishads belonging to the Atharva Veda. Mundaka means ''shaved'' like a shaved head.
