Send us a textIn the Vedic tradition we do not seek to believe in God, we seek to know God. While religions seek to believe in God, spirituality seeks to know God. Vedic knowledge views prayer -called prarthana- as transcending mere requests for health, happiness wealth etc to the selfless form of prayer- which connects us to our inner truths and by extension, to the supreme consciousness.   It is natural for us to request divine grace and ease from the living burdens of angst, despair, disease poverty and so on. Prayer- for what we need- do help us to built faith in the unseen … but the  truest form of prayer Is recognizing that each one of us is an instrument of the divine force.  Once we acknowledge this truth, faith fortifies, it does not blame humanity, or God for our crises. Instead faith, as it grows, opens us wider to unearth deep strength within, awakening the soul from its slumber. Hardships come in our lives to force imperative  pause, it forcibly stops us in our tracks. It cleves the heart, commanding us to be still while cell, tissue snd memory get recalibrated. We may think we are the leader of our destiny and purpose but in truth we are not. The divine force that created us  is the commander of the body ship. Once we recognize this truth, we can more easily make the necessary alterations and shifts in our course. We receive guidance in the stillness that keeps us whole and in fluidity with Source. Religions all personify gods and goddesses in manifold ways - these cosmic archetypes help the individual to connect more deeply to their innate essence of faith. However, beyond the architecture of religions, there lies your truest essence- spirituality. Here we have direct access- a profoundly exquisite connection to the Divine. In the Vedas we call this connection  Nimitta Karanam, the instrument of God/Goddess. Bring a primeval instrument of the Divine rises way above the tide of discipleship. It moved us beyond mere confusion and despair to fostering devotion, self-reflection, and a shift from daily needs to spiritual awareness, fostering faith and sincerity in our effortts. How we negotiate difficulties, shows what clarity we are we receiving from the Divine Self, which messenger  appears when we are broken. During times of deep despair, we naturally transform  through the Blessings of the Broken- a cosmic vibration that  programs multiple light waves within  to purify body, mind, spirit. Ancestors are present, knowledge comes unpacked in simple covers. All we need do is to garner sufficient stillness so we can receive guidance through inner synchronization. We live to deepen this relationship with the Divine. Through culling the ultimate  devotion we recognize that the supreme is not in the sky above or on the earth below. It is within. It rides on consciousness. The more awareness we generate, the more we see that  our very presence is illumined by and carefully crafted by the Divine. Ultimately, from the informed source of your spiritual self, all prayers offered is meant for the well-being of humanity, the collective. No-one is exempt from prayers. We include those who cause us harm, enemies, and all who have disparaged the Earth. We pray for their transcendence into the light, promoting universal love. We focus on conscious growth to rise above difficulties. Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com Mothermaya@gmail.com Get Maya's New Book: I Am Shakti: https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/o-books/our-books/I-am-shakti Amazon.com Bookshop.org

Send us a textAwareness is neither a path nor a practice. It is not a‘search, because it is deeply embedded in every call and tissue of our physical, psychic and spiritual body. Simply by taking a deliberate pause, to breathe, to cull attentiveness, allowing yourself to settle into yourself, you will naturally retreat into stillness. You awaken to Awareness by simply being. As PrabhuJi says, “The sense of “I” appears to be a subject in a specific location. Yet when you begin to fully embody the ‘I' it draws closer into itself. Awareness becomes present, unfolding itself as consciousness…# You are neither the subject or object of awareness. You are awareness. You exist in the pure eternal reality of awareness. Awareness is the most intimate asset of your human design, it is within, it is without, it is pervasive and yet it exists in shunya, the cosmic void. It is beyond the stars, playing in the interstellar space. It is beyond the ocean deep in its history of trillions of years. Its poetry is so vast, it can't be objectified. You can no more grasp or grapple at it than you can grab at space. It your most immortal asset. It lives within you and survives your demise. During my bout with cancer, while my body was straddled  between the physical subtle light planes, I recall how serene my body felt, the brilliant light of my awareness zooming me through the subtle light corridors with such a blissful sense of quiet peace. My consciousness had switched to a subtler timeline. It did not require my ravished body to soar. It had touched upon a timeline of my maternal ancestors and versions of me whose faces I clearly gleaned, This parallel reality is expounded in the Vedas which describes the existence of a multiverse with an infinite number of simultaneous universes (called Brahmandas), each operating with its own distinct timeline and physical laws. Time itself is considered cyclic and relative, not linear or absolute. The rishis understood that human psyche is infinitely persistent across manifold realities, its awareness witnessing infinite variations of your own existence. Awareness is absolute. Death is not. The nature of Ananda, consciousness, is that it continually adapts, exploring infinite paths across parallel worlds.Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com Mothermaya@gmail.com Get Maya's New Book: I Am Shakti: https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/o-books/our-books/I-am-shakti Amazon.com Bookshop.org

If God is everywhere, why can't God be in an image? If devotion dissolves the self before the Beloved, what remains to draw the line between Hindu and Muslim? And can we ever find an answer to suffering that satisfies both the heart and the mind? Drawing from his acclaimed book, "The Hindu Self and Its Muslim Neighbors," Dr Barua guides us through the shared devotional languages of Bhakti and Sufi traditions. He reveals how figures like Kabir, Tagore, Nazrul Islam, and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan inhabited spaces of “creative ambiguity” that transcended rigid boundaries. This episode explores Dr Barua's journey from physics to metaphysics, delving into the theology behind “idol worship” and the intersection of quantum mechanics and religious truth. It invites us to discover profound resonances and honest tensions between two great spiritual traditions. Dr Ankur Barua is a Senior Lecturer in Hindu Studies at the Faculty of Divinity, University of Cambridge. He researches the conceptual constellations and the social structures of the Hindu traditions, both in premodern contexts in South Asia and in colonial milieus where multiple ideas of Hindu identity were configured along transnational circuits between India, Britain, Europe, and USA. In recent years, his research focus has moved to an exploration of the intersections between the idioms of bhakti, yoga, tawḥīd, and taṣawwuf on the multiply-stratified postcolonial landscapes of South Asia.Audio Chapters: 0:00 – Highlights 1:23 – From Physics to Metaphysics 12:30 – Language of Science vs Language of Religion 19:10 – Are There Revelations in Hinduism?24:50 – On Infallibility of the Vedas 28:28 – Revelation in Hinduism and Abrahamic Traditions 33:16 – Between Monotheism and Idol Worship in Hinduism 45:07 – Idol Worship and Muslims 47:15 – Why Muslim Neighbours? 55:52 – Muslims as Foreigners 1:04:45 – Bhakti and Sufi Love 1:17:01 – Quantum Mechanics and Truth of Religion 1:23:10 – Religion and Meaning for Modern Individuals 1:28:46 – Thinking Islam QuestionMentioned in This Episode: "Images of the Unimaginable God" by Dr Ankur Barua: https://renovatio.zaytuna.edu/article/images-of-the-unimaginable-god "The Hindu Self and Its Muslim Neighbors" by Dr Ankur Barua: https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/hindu-self-and-its-muslim-neighbors-9781793642585/ "Form and Essence" by Shaykh Arif: https://www.shaykharif.com/blog/impurity?categoryId=24615

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.

Vedic knowledge, is not myth. it is memory that sustains within the humanity's DNA. All that we call myth - from the  ancient domain of Africa ( which includes Egypt ), India, China, the great pyramids, Mayan civilization's UN-erasable history- the universal truth etched in our memory- memory to be remembered. A more recent Vedic aeronautic tome called the Vaimanika Shastra written by Pt. Sastry cited the intricate architectural designs implemented in ancient Vedic models for starships such as Ai Atlas and R2 Swan - the design and construction and propulsion of these ancient starships noted untra-dense metal construction and mercury vortex engines and other highly advanced  technologies.  The modern discovery of concepts like ion drives, warp drives and  anti-gravity technology align with the supreme design architecture described in this text which elaborated on ancient Vedic texts such as Ramayana and Mahabharata that noted these flying machines called Vimana, a Sanskrit term: The descriptions of Vimanas as silent hovering craft moving with aquatic grace at unfathomable speeds across great swaths of the universe navigating through known cosmic portals. Vaimanika Sastra surmised the starship's design  complied with Vedic mathematical principles that emulate the natural symmetrical  pulsation and geometrical sequence of the universe. ancient Vedic renditions of spacecraft design would have had to include a timed emission system that is synchronized  to match the pulsation of the cosmic heartbeat generating from Spanda, the primordial vibration.  Its navigation system is rooted in the cosmic code imbued into the spiral of galaxies, a concept founded  in 200BCE by the Vedic mathematician, Pingala in his work on Sanskrit prosody where he surmised the Virahanka numbers, the knowledge of what is now known as the Fibonacci sequence - the cosmic code imbued in the spiral of galaxies, in the full cycle of the DNA double helix, and in various aspects of nature.To help us understand  the impossible timeline being not only possible but holding infinite possibilities listen to the deeper vibration of truth currently resonating in every cell of your being. There is simply nothing to fear  from the arrival of interstellar starships and their Supra-conscious sojourners.Vedic cosmology describes time in vast cycles called kalpas, 4.32 billion years, for example, represent a day of Brahma followed by a night of Brahma of equal length, where the universe is created and then dissolved. This cyclical model predates present day Big Bang theories. The Vedas propose that the universe expands from a singularity and at the end of each Kalpa it collapses into dissolution therein triggering the next Big Bang. This understanding of the Kalpa principle of time offers insights into the bending and folding of cosmic time.

If we have false expectations about what we're going to get in life and don't trace it back to the way we're doing our own planting, then this is illusory. An illusory lifestyle is not very satisfying. But what is satisfying is coming to grips with how what we're planting is coming up in various ways. So, being fully aware that the seeds we plant will give us specific results, and in our lives, also, we have to be very much aware of what we're doing and how we're doing it, so we can cultivate our consciousness to the highest level. Now, that brings us to something I alluded to a few minutes ago. And in slide number five, we have this oft-repeated concept in many of the ancient literatures—the Upanishads and the Vedas, the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, Bhagavad Gītā—that human life has a very specific purpose. It's not willy-nilly. It's meant for us to cultivate something that bears a specific fruit. And therefore, we can count on the cultivation process. If we follow a system, and we're vigilant about it, we can expect something amazing. I think all plants are amazing. I'm just going to go ahead and say: I mean, how does it happen? How does it bear fruit, flowers, and come right out of the ground, and so forth? And human life can be an amazing adventure at every moment if we're invested in the cultivation process. But keeping in mind, the main point is, that's what we're meant for, according to the Śrīman Bhāgavatam, which says human life is meant to cultivate spiritual consciousness. Period. Full stop. It ends there. And if we do that, then we'll get the best fruits and flowers that will fully satisfy and nourish us. That's the implication. ------------------------------------------------------------ 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #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

In this episode, we explore one of the oldest patterns in human spiritual history: the way beings who brought wisdom, fire, and awareness to humanity were later rewritten as villains. From the Asuras of the Vedas, to the Titans and Prometheus, to the Anunnaki, the Watchers of the Book of Enoch, Lucifer, Pan, and the Christian Devil — this is the global story of how “light” became “rebellion,” and why knowledge has always been framed as a threat to centralized power.This episode breaks down: • The true origin of the word Lucifer (Light-Bringer) • How Lucifer, Satan, and “the Devil” became fused into one figure • The Watchers of Enoch and why their teachings were forbidden • The Asuras and their transformation from divine beings to demons • Prometheus and the psychological meaning of “stealing fire” • The demonization of Pan and the removal of the divine feminine • How empires rewrite myths to control spiritual access • Why personal awakening has always been treated as dangerousThis is not a theological rant — it's an examination of how consciousness, myth, and culture have been weaponized to limit human spiritual potential.If you're interested in spirituality, ancient civilizations, forbidden history, mythology, Gnosticism, occult symbolism, or breaking free from inherited belief systems, this episode is for you.

Did you know there's a legend about an ancient flying machine in India called the Vimana? These fascinating machines are mentioned in old texts like the Vedas and Ramayana, where they're described as floating palaces or chariots that could soar through the skies. Some even believe these flying wonders were powered by advanced technology, way ahead of their time. The idea has sparked debates, with some saying it's just mythology while others wonder if ancient civilizations knew more than we think. Scientists and historians are skeptical because there's no solid evidence of Vimana being real, but the descriptions in the texts are super detailed and intriguing. Learn more about your ad choices.

Spirit Realm: Angels Demons, Spirits and the Sovereignty of God (Foreword by Jordan Maxwell) https://amzn.to/31g9ydRJordan Maxwell, the godfather of western esoterics has been bringing information to the limelight about these topics for years and has since been a forerunner in UFOlogy and the study of aliens. This is most definitely because Jordan Maxwell himself has had encounters with extraterrestrial aliens and UFOs in the past. He has shared some of these stories on podcasts and interviews with Kerry Cassidy of Project Camelot. To many, Jordans stories are far fetched and downright unbelievable but one thing they do bring with them is fascination. This fascination is then backed up with Bible doctrines and texts that talk about humans having interactions with angelic beings and objects that sound eerily like UFO ships. These stories are spread wide throughout the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Stories about fire traveling through the skies at night giving protection to the Israelites and then appearing as a cloud by day speaking to and guiding them through the desert. There are so many obscure passages in the Bible that speak about what sounds to be a lot like aliens and UFOs. We can also go into other ancient texts such as the Vedas, The Book of Enki, The Bhagavad Gita and so on and find similar stories of the gods coming down to communicate with man. This has given Jordan Maxwell's work and stories a frame of reference when winning over the minds of those who study the ancient scriptures. There was one story that Jordan told that many people call him on and with this story he loses all credibility for many people. Jordan Maxwell tells a story about an experience that he had when he was a young boy. He tells of how he and his dog trapped a baby T-Rex in the corner of his yard and his dog was barking fiercely at the baby dinosaur. Yes, you read that right, a baby Tyrannosaurus Rex is what Jordan said that they had captured in his yard. Is this just a tall tale or is it ture? One thing for sure is that Jordan Maxwell has some great stories. Heck, have you ever heard the tales of the Thunderbirds that people report seeing? For those who study cryptozoology they are well aware of these Terrordactyl type creatures with reported wingspans of 10 to 15 feet wide.

The sages of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam tell us that before the creation of the material universe, everything exists in subtle potential within the consciousness of the Supreme Lord. When He glances upon material nature, His will awakens the machinery of manifestation. The universe begins to print itself into being, one layer at a time, from subtle to gross, from vibration to form, from thought into thing. This process is mirrored everywhere around us, and even within us. In the age of machines, the simplest metaphor is that of a 3D printer. The 3D printer begins not with paper or ink, but with information: invisible sequences of digital data, code, shapes, colors, ideas are sent from the mind of a creator into a mechanism that translates them into visible form. The machine does not invent the content; it merely reveals what has been conceived. The same principle governs the cosmos. The material universe is not a random explosion, but a deliberate unfolding, an act of divine printing. The Lord's glance over Prakṛti or material nature is like pressing the "Print" button. The information—the blueprints of galaxies, atoms, and souls—is already encoded in the divine mind. The material energy serves as the printer, the instrument through which that information takes on perceptible form. Just as a printer cannot produce anything unless data is supplied, nature cannot act without consciousness. The Bhāgavatam describes material nature as inert, a machine that awakens only when the glance of the Lord touches it. That glance is consciousness; that glance is will; and it brings everything to life. And Japa is the sound that prints the spiritual world. In the same way, our consciousness is constantly printing our personal reality. Each thought and desire-vibration we emit becomes a line of code in the architecture of our life. This is why the Vedas say, "manomaya prāṇa śarīra netra" "The mind is the architect of form." When we chant the Hare Krishna mantra, we are sending transcendental information into our hearts and the subtle layers of the universe. These sounds are not material; they are Śabda-Brahman, pure spiritual energy in the form of vibration. They contain within them the entire reality: Krishna, the source of everything, His names, His pastimes, and His devotees. So, just making a parallel to remember that whatever vibration we're making is forming the world around us and within us. Japa is the means through which we transform the instrument of our mind to a medium where we can see Krishna. And it requires some practice, because in the beginning, the mind is agitated by various thoughts, moving in different directions. And then talking to somebody recently who is studying the subtleties of the mind and the process of meditation, I came up with this phrase: "benign discomfort." When one practices sitting to chant the holy name of the Lord, one has to tolerate benign discomfort, as the mind might want to move here or there. We should stay in the practice of bringing the mind back to the mantra until it becomes ekāgratā, or one with the mantra. And then we can find great benefit in being fully absorbed in the mantra. So, we're printing our world as we speak and as we chant, and we have to tolerate benign discomfort. There's great fruit in staying the course. If we can achieve one-mindedness with the mantra, we can achieve absorption. And all benefits, spiritual benefits, come from that absorption. ------------------------------------------------------------ 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/ ------------------------------------------------------------

Send us a textIt is no surprise that 3i Atlas -a fleet of spacecrafts- has successfully entered Earth space using the solar signal of Surya, the Sun as their GPS navigator. Our limited knowledge of universal physics render us incapable of grasping the magnitude of the multi universe we live in.  Thousands of years ago the Vedic seers recorded numerous texts that illuminated extensive knowledge of the cosmic pathways and divine travel between different realms. Texts like the Mahabharata and Puranas depict infinite number of pathways for inter stellar travels - ways that modern science compares to wormholes. These pages illustrated the idea of divine beings instantly traversing vast distances or returning to find that centuries have passed,  using cosmic pathways as shortcuts through spacetime.  In the Mahabharata, central text of the Bhagavad Gita, Arjuna's journeyed to the realm of the gods in a divine chariot through a "pathway of stars". Vedic parables depict gods and demons alike using "celestial pathways" or "cosmic doorways" for instantaneous travel across vast distances and between different universes, These space chariots are called Vimanas, in Sanskrit.3i Atlas is creating history on planet Earth, defying what little we know about interstellar relationship and travel. NASA's emergency response team declared a code red crisis as scientists watching the eruption fled their monitoring stations, unable to explain what they were witnessing. 3iAtlas spacecraft began erupting massive jets of superheated plasma that extend over 2 million kilometers into space.

Last week, we saw some eye-opening statistics showing that while many people call themselves Christian, very few actually hold to the core biblical beliefs that define a true Christian worldview. This Sunday, we're going to dig into what's at the heart of those beliefs—the very foundation of the Christian worldview: the Bible. If someone were to ask you, “Why do you base your whole life on the Bible?” or “Why do you trust it?” you might answer, “Because it's God's Word.” But what if they pressed further and asked, “How do you know that? What makes the Bible different from the Qur'an, the Hindu Vedas, or any other religious or philosophical writings in the world?” A Hindu would say the Vedas offer the correct picture of truth and reality, while a Muslim would disagree and point to the Qur'an as the accurate one. I think most believers would probably share their personal story or testimony as proof. But people of other faiths do the same with their own experiences. So just relying on your personal experience is not enough to prove your view of Scripture—especially in a culture that's skeptical about what the Bible says. Do you really have solid reasons to believe God has spoken through the Bible and that what it says is actually true? Why should you trust the Bible above everything else? You should be able to answer that. You should be able to say, “Here's why my life depends on this Book, and here's why yours should, too.” We'll help you with a number of specific reasons. We'll talk about how we can keep building our lives on God's truth instead of just going along with opinions or what's popular in our culture and we'll get practical about what it looks like to live out a true biblical worldview, “rightly handling the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15).

Send us a textCosmic sounds heal us as we learn to harness its wise medicine within. You know that you are infinitely powerful in your frequency potential when you realize you are equipped with a powerful weapon that can restore earth equanimity and our proper alignment to her. The human voice as a divine  instrument is a powerful foundational tool for living a life of ahimsa. It is the basis of our individuality and creative expression. However, the human voice is our most misunderstood and misused possession. We take our voice for granted—using and abusing it for the most mundane, trivial and hurtful communications—forgetting to honor it as the divine instrument of harmony, sovereignty and within us.Vedic wisdom Informs the universe in a state of constant, interconnected vibration, and creation itself is emanated from a primordial sound or vibration, often represented by the mantra "Om".  This sound is central axis of the life force that flows through living beings, and practices like Vedic and other ancient chants are used to align with this cosmic vibration. First and  foremost, we are rhythmic beings, sustained in growth through our vibratory field. The greater our vibrations, the more consciousness we harness and exude. everything in the universe, including thoughts, speech and emotions, is energy vibrating at a specific frequency. In this view, when we raise personal vibration it aligns with the "cosmic vibration" and ripples out to awaken a deeper sense of awareness and wellness throughout the human tribe. Nature continually grace our energies with her healing sounds…she nourishes our vibratory fields that keeps mind body healthy … through gentle whispers, or vibrant talks she rambles and when we become tone- deaf  she shouts and rages as in terrifying winds, and storms to awaken the human connection to her infinite grace, medicine and wisdom. Her earth is always tremor-ing deep beneath the surface, her mysterious phenomenon pulses every 26 seconds a seismic"heartbeat" that has puzzled scientists for decades.  Silencing is another indicator of earth intelligence signaling humans that our alignment to her vibration is askew. The ocean's gentle giants are falling quiet - and it's sending shockwaves through the scientific community. The blue whale song intensity has dropped by nearly 40% over recent decades. These deep, low-frequency calls aren't just necessary for mating, navigation, and long-distance communication. Importantly, the ocean mammals' vibratory field sustains humanity's memory field. (Subject for another podcast)……Africa and other ancient cultures knew that oral knowledge is power. the most important knowledge such as Vedas was largely preserved by a few select and worthy custodians. In Aboriginal cultures, elders who have passed the highest levels of initiation hold the deepest levels of knowledge. This is reflected in the way their cosmic energy generated architecture as in the Egyptian pyramids, the Aboriginal initiation sites, at Stonehenge, where the perimeter of standing stones shields the centre of the ring, where the most circulation of cosmic vibration seals important aspects knowledge which are passed on through ceremony. Listen in—Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com Get Maya's New Book: I Am Shakti: https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/o-books/our-books/I-am-shakti Amazon.com Bookshop.org

That is the subject matter of Gita-govinda. The same poet, Jayadeva Gosvami, has offered this prayer, pralaya-payodhi-jale-dhrtavan asivedam. He says, “My dear Lord, when there was devastation within this universe, everything was filled with water. At that time You saved the Vedas stacked in a boat, and You held the boat from being drowned in the water in the shape of a big fish.” This fish first of all was caught in the waterpot just like a small fish. Then it enlarged, and the fish was kept in a bigger water reservoir. In this way, the fish was increasing. Then the fish informed that “Devastation is coming. You just save all the Vedas on a boat, and I shall protect it.” Jayadeva Gosvami is offering prayer, “My Lord, You saved the Vedas when there was devastation in the shape of fish.” (excerpt from Srila Prabhupada's purport to the song) 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #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

Every knowledge system requires axiomatic statements. Otherwise, you can't go anywhere. Axiomatic means they don't require investigation. They're just accepted. And if you don't have that, as Aristotle said, you get infinite regress. You can't go anywhere. It's like troops keep retreating and retreating and retreating, and they never stand and fight. And H. H. Hridayānanda Mahārāja gave the example of this: that someone says, 'What temperature is water? What, 200 degrees, or whatever it is.' I said, 'Prove it.' So then you get water, and you boil it, put a thermometer in, and then it says 200, and then it starts to boil. And you say, 'There, it's proved.' He says, 'Wait a minute, prove that's a real thermometer.' So then you go get a thermometer testing kit, whatever that is, and you test it. You say, 'Okay, it's real.' And then you go, 'Prove that that's a real thermometer testing kit.' And in that way, you keep going back and back and back. There has to be a point at which you have an axiom where this is the source—this is self-revealing. It proves itself. You don't have to investigate it. So, every system has that.

Yoga Wisdom with Acharya das
#278 Can I know God?

Yoga Wisdom with Acharya das

This is a talk from the Wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita series, exploring the possibility of knowing God from the Vedic perspective. Knowing God is indeed possible but requires a transformation of consciousness. Material consciousness is characterized by self-centeredness, whereas spiritual consciousness is a state of manifesting selflessness.In the quest to know God, one must recognize the limitations of our physical senses and mind in perceiving spiritual reality. The ancient teachers of Vedic knowledge describe that which is spiritual with the word adhokṣaja which means "that which is beyond the measurement of our senses." It was acknowledged that spiritual reality is beyond the range of worldly experimental knowledge. The Vedas, however, taught that despite the limitations of the body and mind, God is discoverable, but it requires a major change or purification of our consciousness. In the current age the transformation of consciousness necessary to know God can be achieved through meditation on spiritual sound, particularly through kirtan (congregational chanting).The quotes used in the talk:All of them-as they surrender unto Me-I reward accordingly. Everyone follows My path in all respects, O son of Pṛthā. - Bg 4.11I am never manifest to the foolish and unintelligent. For them I am covered by My eternal creative potency [yoga-māyā]; and so the deluded world knows Me not, who am unborn and infallible. - Bhagavad-gītā 7.25But you cannot see Me with your present eyes. Therefore I give you divine eyes. Behold My mystic opulence! - Bhagavad-gītā 11.8That very ancient science of the relationship with the Supreme is today told by Me to you because you are My devotee as well as My friend; therefore you can understand the transcendental mystery of this science. - Bhagavad-gītā 4.3The Supreme Lord said: My dear Arjuna, because you are never envious of Me, I shall impart to you this most secret wisdom, knowing which you shall be relieved of the miseries of material existence. - Bhagavad-gītā 9.1Because you are My very dear friend, I am speaking to you the most confidential part of knowledge. Hear this from Me, for it is for your benefit. - Bhagavad-gītā 18.64Always think of Me and become My devotee. Worship Me and offer your homage unto Me. Thus you will come to Me without fail. I promise you this because you are My very dear friend. - Bhagavad-gītā 18.65The form you are seeing with your transcendental eyes cannot be understood simply by studying the Vedas, nor by undergoing serious penances, nor by charity, nor by worship. It is not by these means that one can see Me as I am. - Bhagavad-gītā 11.53My dear Arjuna, only by undivided devotional service can I be understood as I am, standing before you, and can thus be seen directly. Only in this way can you enter into the mysteries of My understanding. - Bhagavad-gītā 11.54

If you have been instrumental in creating the world by your speech and what you're listening to, you can uncreate it. Wouldn't you like to have an undo button, like 'undo whatever you've done,' or an uncreate button? If you don't like what you've created, uncreate it. You can reverse the process. And that's what happens with transcendental sound. Instead of cohorting with the material energy—talking about it, listening to ideas about how to manipulate it, and so forth—one transfers one's hearing process to hearing from the spiritual world. tad-vāg-visargo janatāgha-viplavo yasmin prati-ślokam abaddhavaty api nāmāny anantasya yaśo 'ṅkitāni yat śṛṇvanti gāyanti gṛṇanti sādhavaḥ (SB.1.5.11) It means that there is sound that comes from another creation, and when that sound comes in, and you utilize that sound, it reverses the process of material creation and brings one back to one's original consciousness. And this idea of shpota, living being never actually mixed with the material world. 'Asaṅgo hy ayaṁ puruṣaḥ,' the Vedas say: 'You're not part of the material world. Never were. You're not right now either.' So, even Kṛṣṇa says in the Eleventh Canto of the Bhagavatam, 'There's no liberation for the soul, because he was never actually in bondage.' This is one perspective, and Kṛṣṇa is giving it to Uddhava because you never even touch the material world. You're only imagining that you're interacting with it through this facility that's created because of material sound, which is generated by your own desire. So, change it, and you can uncreate what you've done. And that's the process of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. ------------------------------------------------------------ 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #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

Each and every emotion, Is a world unto its own, That once felt and fully absorbed, The mystery of life will be shown. ☉I think the key to these times, and this will be driven into our heads and hearts for the next 20 years with Pluto going through Aquarius, is that nothing lasts forever, is forever, and the key to happiness is non-attachment. The Sabian symbol (and the Bible) states: "From dust thou came and unto dust thou shall return." We come in with nothing and go out with nothing. The Vedas speak of Maya, the great illusion of this earthly world. Each one of our feelings, when followed down to their source, whether taking us up to the highest of highs or down to the lowest of lows will bring us to Great Spirit. Great Spirit is the beginning and the end, the alpha and the omega. As we are ultimately one with that infinite spirit and have broken free to experience it/ourselves through these bodies in time and space, we are on an adventurous journey. Seen this way, we can dig more, feel more, and experience more of the intense and passionate realities this world offers us if we don't settle, come to expect, demand, depend, cling, or attach to it. All roads lead up the mountain, all roads lead to Rome, all roads return to Source. To stay in realms of light and play with the darkness and to stay connected to Source while separate is to live the paradox and dance the dance of life. We can take refuge in the fact that Spirit is always there, in all forms, shapes, sizes, types, and time. It is the great mystery of love, the shapeshifter, that ultimately is a reflection of our own ability to love. To give is to receive. So relax, know that everything is temporary and this too shall pass. Take joy in the movement, the change, and flow as the river always flows to the sea. El Farol by Santana, feel it out!  https://youtu.be/Ri4mJgYBbnc?si=cMyj4IUnKt-C56CzSo Much Love,Kaypacha☉

You can add this to your portfolio. "I was there. I chanted Hare Kṛṣṇa. I got up early, I dropped what I was doing, and I sat and chanted with the devotees, gave full attention to The Holy Name." This some people don't achieve after millions and millions of lifetimes, but all of you have this conviction: 'Vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti,' Vasudev is everything. You also have śraddhā, which means, "śraddhā-śabde-viśvāsa sudṛḍha niścaya, kṛṣṇe bhakti kaile sarva-karma kṛta haya" (CC Madhya 22.62). That if I chant Hare Kṛṣṇa and I give my full attention to the holy name, then everything else will be perfectly executed in my life. Nothing else is needed. "Vedeṣu yajñeṣu tapaḥsu caiva, dāneṣu yat puṇya-phalaṁ pradiṣṭam, atyeti tat sarvam idaṁ viditvā, yogī paraṁ sthānam upaiti cādyam" (BG 8.28). That is Kṛṣṇa, who assures us at the end of the eighth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, that if you just give yourself to Kṛṣṇa and the process of devotional service, you achieve the results of everything else you're trying to achieve in your life. This is why you're here. This is very deep. So this is no small accomplishment to be able to sit and chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. Most people can't do it. The mind is raging, there's problems to solve. "I feel depressed, I feel attracted to something else." But the fact that you show up means that you have evolved spiritually over many, many lifetimes to come to this position. So take advantage of it, that you know this, and that you know that all the Vedas are pointing to one thing—the holy name. And that is by taking part every day in chanting the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra. Finishing 16 rounds, you're following the instructions of the Ācārya, which means you're safe. So stay safe. ------------------------------------------------------------ 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 ------------------------------------------------------------ #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

In times of rising frustration over the state of nations, times of personal, ecological, societal, and planetary impasse, when cycles of senseless suffering seemingly repeat themselves over and over, and all the global upheaval still isn't bringing about change... in times when stuck energies need to move and forces that have been restrained for generations long to break free, the myths offer visions of roarers, bellowers, trumpeters, and conch-blasters. These movers and shakers do more than release pent up energy. They awaken, they transform, and they announce the transition from one world to the next. So the howling storm gods of the Vedas "move the immovable" and the Goddess herself trembles the worlds with her cosmic roaring laughter and ushers in a new age. But the roar of the goddess is not just the roar of speaking truth to external powers — it is also an internal reckoning, a moment of reconciliation that takes place within us — a recognition of all those places in us that have gone dormant and need waking and all those old patterns that need to be shaken free. As bodies try to somatically process and metabolize the times we are living in, sometimes we need a good mother roar.... and we can learn much from traditions that harness the power of uttered sound to invoke help, to guard against intrusion, to dispel negative forces, and to carry us into states of deeper connectivity. Ready yourself for roars and bellows, trumpets of judgement, announcing angels, and a deep dive into the Norse Ragnarok myth with Rune Rasmussen of the Nordic animism channel. Because sometimes you gotta go full apocalyptic to meet the energy of the times. Featuring music from (and an interview with) Sakha songstress Snow Raven, songs, yelps, bellows, and shrieks from Marya Stark and Travis Puntarelli, appropriately doomy guitar from Sunny Reinhardt, and angelic calls from Jeunae Elita, this episode is designed to MOVE STUCK ENERGY, and then ultimately to channel it in creative and life-affirming ways.

The genius of the bhakti tradition's sacred texts is how they reveal the loftiest yogic and theological truths through the sweetest intimacy. The Cosmic Source described in the Vedas and the Absolute Truth of the Vedānta Sūtra is revealed in the Bhagavatam as Krishna, a mischievous, playful child—the most adorable boy. When Mother Yaśodā peers into Krishna's mouth, she doesn't just see her son—she sees the entire universe. In this paradox of infinite divinity wrapped in childlike charm, bhakti uncovers a truth both cosmic and deeply personal.
