Some truths hit you like a lightning bolt. Others hover like clouds for years—until something cracks your heart open and lets the rain in. In this episode, Raghunath and Kaustubha explore the invisible barriers that keep spiritual truths from fully landing—the wisdom blockers that arise from fear, ego, or unresolved resistance. They unpack how knowledge matures through humility, devotion, association—and a willingness to get emotionally honest. Drawing from the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam and reflections on Henry Ward Beecher's insight, the conversation reveals how real wisdom requires more than intellect—it requires openness of heart.

The Power and the Wisdom of God // Martin Parkhotyuk by HungryGen

The Unexpected Benefits of Owning a Lamborghini

Sourcing expert Isaac Hetzroni, aka @thesourcingguy, shares tips on China, AI, factory tours, and finding top suppliers. Essential insights for smarter e-commerce strategies.   Join us as we explore the dynamic world of sourcing with Isaac Hetzroni, aka @thesourcingguy, a rising influencer known for his insightful content on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. Isaac, though lesser-known in the Amazon space, shares his extensive experience in manufacturing, having grown up in the industry with his family's apparel and electronics factories. He provides valuable insights on whether businesses should look beyond China for sourcing, and shares practical tips on understanding product costs and minimizing risks. Isaac's engaging social media presence brings these topics to life, making sourcing strategies both informative and entertaining.   We'll also examine the complexities and misconceptions surrounding sourcing from China, where advanced infrastructure and a skilled workforce have cemented its status as a manufacturing powerhouse. Despite pushes for diversification, replicating China's efficiency in other countries presents significant challenges. Apparel manufacturing emerges as a more adaptable sector for relocation, yet the transition is fraught with logistical hurdles. The discussion extends to global manufacturing trends and China's impact on the U.S. market, including the rise of Factory to Consumer strategies and the role of AI in overcoming language barriers, all of which are reshaping global trade relationships.   In this episode, we emphasize the importance of building strong business relationships, especially when dealing with Chinese suppliers. Personal connections often intertwine with professional dealings, and trade shows play a crucial role in maintaining these relationships. We explore strategies for finding the best suppliers beyond platforms like Alibaba, using tools such as Import Yeti and trade shows to discover high-quality factories. Additionally, we highlight the importance of quality control and the advantages of diversifying supply chains to new regions. Tune in to gain insights into effective sourcing strategies, quality control, and the evolving landscape of global manufacturing.

In this Morning Manna, Rick and Doc reveal how God's own wisdom formed the universe — and how that same wisdom brings security and stability to our lives. Studying Proverbs 3:19–26, they show that wisdom is more than a tool for life; it is the very force God used to establish the heavens and the earth.The lesson highlights the rewards of embracing God's wisdom: sound judgment, restful sleep, fearlessness in crisis, and protection from destruction. In contrast to the anxiety and chaos of the world, those who walk with wisdom can live in calm assurance — unafraid, unshaken, and unwavering.This message will renew your confidence that God's wisdom is not only divine but also deeply personal and practical for every challenge you face today.Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart.

Our Parsha begins with the commandment for Aaron to kindle the Menorah, the intricately embellished, seven-branched candelabra hewn out of a single block of gold. Towards the Parsha's middle, we read about the set of silver trumpets that Moshe made, again hewn out of a single block of silver. The only other item with this requirement is the set of golden cherubs perched atop the Ark's Cover. Why must these items be made in this unusual fashion? Why cant the Menorah's branches be made separately and welded together? Why cant the golden cherubs be created separately and subsequently attached to the Ark's Cover? In this fascinating podcast we propose a novel explanation that reveals the deep insight for the things that must be created by omission, and contrast it with the sukkah that has the opposite requirement: it cannot be made by hollowing out a mound of material to form the sukkah's walls and roof.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –This Parsha Podcast is dedicated in honor of our dear friend and dedicated Parsha Podcast listener Steve Horak on the occasion of his birthday this week sponsored by his children Meirav and Ahron and granddaughter Libi.

Proverbs 16:16 says, “How much better to get wisdom than gold! To get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.”In a world that chases wealth as the ultimate goal, Scripture calls us to something better—wisdom. Because without godly wisdom, even abundance can lead us astray. Today, Jim Newheiser joins us to explore why wisdom, not money, is the true measure of success in God's economy. Dr. James (Jim) Newheiser, Jr., is the Director of the Christian Counseling Program and Professor of Christian Counseling and Pastoral Theology at RTS Charlotte. He is also the author of several books on the subject of counseling, as well as Money: Seeking God's Wisdom (31-Day Devotionals for Life).Investing in What SatisfiesIsaiah 55:2 details an account where the Lord asks, “Why do you spend money for what is not bread, and your wages for what does not satisfy?” It's a poignant reminder that many of us chase things that leave us empty. How we spend our time and money reflects what we value. Yet so often, those values are shaped by a world that overpromises and underdelivers.Instead of finding fulfillment in wealth, ultimate satisfaction comes from our relationship with God and the good gifts He provides. Time spent in Scripture, prayer, and worship is far more nourishing than any financial gain. Even the principle of rest in Scripture is God's reminder that we don't need to fill every waking moment with striving.Wisdom or Wealth? A Tale of Two WomenThe book of Proverbs is interesting because in this compilation in Scripture, wisdom is personified as a noble woman worth pursuing, while folly appears as a seductive but destructive adulteress. Proverbs sets up a contrast because Lady Wisdom is like the soul's true bride. She brings joy and delight. But Madame Folly, who represents false promises like the pursuit of money for its own sake, is spiritual adultery, and she leads to misery.The point is clear: what we pursue will shape us. Chase wisdom, and you'll find joy and lasting purpose. Chase wealth, and you may find yourself grasping at the wind.Applying Wisdom in Daily LifeHow do we actually live out this pursuit of wisdom over wealth? For someone who's not used to reading Scripture regularly, it can start with just two pages a day or with a chapter of Proverbs a day. Ask God to speak to you through it.God has promised something far better than material wealth—His presence, His wisdom, and His joy.There's such a huge connection between our hearts and our money, and God is ultimately after our hearts.If you're ready to go deeper in your walk with God by rethinking your financial life through the lens of biblical wisdom, Wisdom Over Wealth is a great place to start. This new 12-lesson study from FaithFi, based on Ecclesiastes, unpacks how true joy isn't found in accumulation but in reverence, surrender, and trust.You can receive a copy of Wisdom Over Wealth when you become a FaithFi Partner.

It's a small amount. As I'm 76, I'm required to set aside a certain amount each year. I would like to give this to my son now so that those amounts can stay in the account and start accruing interest. Can I do that?We have a credit card balance of $15,000 with an interest rate of 11%. We try to pay $2,000 a month, but the balance keeps increasing. Part of the reason is that our 29-year-old daughter, who lives and works in London, has a card on our account. We initially gave her the card for emergencies and plane tickets home, but she's using it for other expenses, such as occasional Ubers and travel. We really want to pay off this card, but we can't make any progress.

5 Things That You Should ALWAYS Say!

In today's Morning Manna, Rick and Doc celebrate the unmatched blessing of gaining godly wisdom. Drawing from Proverbs 3:13–18, the discussion highlights that wisdom is not only valuable but life-giving — described as more precious than rubies, better than silver and gold, and as a tree of life to those who lay hold of her.The teaching emphasizes that wisdom is not mere intellect, but divine insight that brings length of days, riches, honor, pleasantness, peace, and eternal reward. These verses challenge us to pursue wisdom above worldly gain and to delight in her paths, knowing that all who embrace her are blessed.This message offers a hopeful and invigorating call to build your life on what truly lasts — the wisdom that flows from God Himself.Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart.

What if a single, solid piece of gold could teach us about unity? Explore the profound symbolism of the menorah in Parshas Beha'aloscha and discover how its intricate design serves as a metaphor for the unity and diversity within the Jewish people. We'll weave insights from the Midrash, Rashi, and the teachings of the Arizal to show how the menorah represents a harmonious blend of different tribes and customs, all focused towards the central light, symbolizing the Almighty. The episode offers a rich tapestry of tradition and faith, highlighting the importance of uniformity and equality, especially during Hanukkah.Imagine a world where materialism is mastered, not the master. The Talmudic prophecy of Moshiach arriving on a donkey takes on new meaning as we explore its metaphorical significance in today's material-driven society. This episode emphasizes the intrinsic value of every Jew, likening them to gold refined by trials, and underscores the connectedness of the Torah, God, and the Jewish people. We'll reframe traditional blessings as reminders of the unique responsibilities borne by the Jewish people, advocating for inclusivity and compassion over claims of superiority.Can you envision a world where everyone maximizes their unique talents and gifts? Through a moving tale of a sage who pursued his destiny against all odds, this episode highlights the essential responsibility to fulfill one's divine purpose. We'll draw from historical examples in the Talmud and stress the role of parents in nurturing their children's talents, ensuring they flourish in their unique roles. This conversation also extends to the broader societal and religious contexts, where understanding and fulfilling one's responsibilities is key to maintaining harmony and peace. Join us for an inspiring exploration of unity, diversity, and purpose, as represented by the components of the menorah._____________This episode (Ep 7.33) of the Parsha Review Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe on Parshas Beha'aloscha is dedicated in honor of our Holy Soldiers in the Battlefield and our Torah Scholars in the Study Halls who are fighting for the safety of our nation!Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharingRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on June 10, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on June 11, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Divine wisdom is FULL of MERCY. Our world often calls acts "mercy" or "compassion" as acts that aren't smart or wise... But God's word tells us that divine wisdom is "full of" mercy. Join us today as we talk about a type of wisdom that is on "the way" called mercy. Pastor Greg will be in James 3 and Matthew 5.

If "wise living" is void of divine character, then it is not divine wisdom. If wisdom is like a “way called mercy,” then good fruits is the attitude and actions that are produced on that way.Join us in our sixth week of our WISDOM series. Pastor Greg will travel throughout the scriptures, looking at wisdom that bears lasting fruit.

More and more people are waking up to the very real dangers that humanity is facing as a result of a declining honeybee population. Yet as we join the refrain, "Save the bees!" Michelle Cassandra Johnson and Amy Burtaine pose a profound and extraordinary question: What if it's the bees who are trying to save us?  In this eye-opening conversation with the coauthors of the new book The Wisdom of the Hive, Tami Simon speaks with Michelle and Amy about bees as psychopomps who come to us with guidance; the spiritual lineage of bee priestesses; sustainability and respect in bee tending; hive consciousness and the concept of the superorganism; bees as an indicator species and the consequences of colony collapse for humanity; tending bees in a way that aligns with how they want to live; experiencing the power of the hum; the healing properties of the hive; how opening a jar of honey can turn into a shamanic journey; the waggle dance; the adaptability of bees and the various roles they play over their lifespan; the queen and her brilliance; becoming less fearful of bees (and what to do when one lands on you!); bees as a model of faith and trust; the question bees have for each one of us: What is the medicine I can offer?; how bees demonstrate gratitude, contentment, and equanimity; the swarm; meaning, connection, creativity, and contribution; the polarity of the dark and the light; the gift of "a box of sweetness"; why "the more you give away, the more you have."

Membership | Donations | Spotify | YouTube | Apple PodcastsWhat the hell is going on with culture right now? The Web is running evolution in fast-forward, remixing the very substrates of identity and personhood in a molten broil of post-ironic, post-human, post-truth meme-play that reminds me of nothing more than the porous networked selfhood of bacterial in a molten wash of horizontal gene transfer. RIP the genre and all hail the hyper-real individual as institution, the self-fulfilling prophecies of [EDIT: Guy Debord's] society of the spectacle [and Baudrillard's simulation], the revenge of religion as our accelerating techno-social evolution prompts a kind of reversal as the movement of the Tao that challenges the dreams and ideals of the Enlightenment…it is a time of monsters, a rapid recombination of worlds and ways of living in them. How to make sense of it all…or is making sense even a viable strategy when rifts and ruptures are the name of the game?Amidst the chaos of pop culture and mainstream news, my friend Rina Nicolae of Incognita swims comfortably as a thoughtful commentator. Riffing philosophically on network society and its discontents, the emergent spiritual traditions of digital natives, and the posthuman bestiary of our AI- and biotech-saturated century, Rina's Substack is a handbook to the cyborg aesthetic, the imagistic/algorithmic complex of online identity, our entanglement with capital and the possession by and performance of meme-space.How do we not become caricatures of ourselves in the world-creating and -destroying flood of remix culture? How do we cultivate roughness, fractality, wildness, illegigility? How do we stay, as Cadell Last put it in the previous episode, “in the gaps and cracks” instead of becoming prey to the new monsters of the unleashed imagination? How do we *befriend* those monsters?William Irwin Thompson said noise characterizes the emergence of planetary culture — an age in which “Technology slays the victim” of the mind “resurrects it as art” in a new ecology of consciousness.

After a year at Sinai, the nation is finally on the move. Following the precise protocol of disassembly and decampment, the nation marches off from Sinai. Destination: Land of Canaan. At least that was the plan. More about that next week. In this week's podcast we explore the events surrounding the Nation's journey from Sinai. We examine Moshe's unsuccessful attempt at cajoling Jethro to remain with the nation, the strange feature of the backwards facing nuns, and the inexplicable nostalgia that the nation exhibited for Egypt. Assembled together, we learn about a fantastic superpower of the evil inclination that's stymies and stifles our ability to easily overcome difficult challenges.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

“I said in my heart, ‘Come now, I will test you with pleasure; enjoy yourself.' But behold, this also was vanity.” — Ecclesiastes 2:1What happens when someone has the power to indulge in every pleasure the world can offer? In Ecclesiastes, we find one of Scripture's boldest experiments: a search for lasting joy through earthly delights. The Preacher—often thought to be Solomon—pursues laughter, wine, work, wealth, sex, and success, all in an effort to answer one question: Can pleasure truly satisfy the human soul?A Culture Chasing the WindToday, we live in a world that echoes the Preacher's experiment. “Treat yourself.” “Follow your heart.” “Do what makes you happy.” These aren't just slogans—they're mantras for modern living. From the vacations we plan to the gadgets we unbox, we're told that happiness is just one more swipe, scroll, or splurge away.But Ecclesiastes challenges that narrative. It forces us to wrestle with a deeper question: What if pleasure doesn't lead where we think it does?The Preacher's pursuit wasn't careless. It was a deliberate, calculated test. He writes, “Whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them” (Ecclesiastes 2:10). He built houses, planted vineyards, created lush gardens, hired singers, amassed wealth, surrounded himself with comfort—even concubines.This wasn't indulgence for indulgence's sake. It was a methodical pursuit of happiness. Today, we might say: “If it looked fun, I bought it. If it felt good, I did it.” The experiment was thorough, and the results were heartbreaking.“Behold, all was vanity and a striving after wind.” — Ecclesiastes 1:14The Thrill FadesTo picture this, imagine a bag of old receipts. Each one once captured a moment of excitement—a new purchase, a fancy dinner, a spontaneous trip. But now? They're just scraps. The joy is gone.That's exactly what the Preacher realized. Pleasure was never meant to carry the weight of our deepest needs. It promises fulfillment but delivers only fleeting escape. It's like trying to hold smoke in your hands—real for a moment, then gone.The Preacher's story finds a parallel in Jesus' parable of the prodigal son. The younger son squandered his inheritance chasing worldly pleasures, only to end up broke and broken. The twist? The Preacher had everything the prodigal son dreamed of—wealth, opportunity, indulgence—and yet he ended up just as empty.Different paths. Same conclusion.A Warning That Leads to FreedomHere's the grace in all this: We don't have to repeat the experiment. The Preacher's pain can be our wisdom. He's waving us down from the road ahead, saying, “There's nothing here. Don't waste your life chasing shadows.”That's a gift. It frees us to reflect:What am I turning to when I feel tired or discouraged?What “quick fixes” do I reach for without thinking?What would it look like to seek joy in God instead?God is not against pleasure. He is the Creator of joy and the Giver of every good and perfect gift (James 1:17). But those gifts were never meant to replace Him. When we look to pleasure as the destination rather than a signpost to the Giver, we miss the point—and our hearts remain restless.So next time you reach for something to lift your spirits, ask: Is this joy, or just escape? Is this feeding my soul, or simply distracting it?A Better Way to LiveEcclesiastes doesn't just warn—it redirects. It helps us tear down the idol of pleasure and place our hope in a Person, not a product. And that Person—our God—is the only source of joy that doesn't fade.At FaithFi, we want to help you explore this truth more deeply. That's why we created Wisdom Over Wealth, a Bible study on Ecclesiastes that unpacks themes like pleasure, wealth, and contentment from a biblical lens.This month, when you support FaithFi's ministry with a gift of $35 or more, we'd love to send you a copy as our way of saying thank you.

Since I'm not very experienced with this process, are there any specific forms or steps I need to take at the closing of the sale? I recently made a claim for a new roof, and my insurance went up.

Have you ever considered the transformative power of eagerness in your spiritual journey? Join us, as we explore how alacrity can be the key to unlocking virtues that lead to a deeper connection with the divine. Inspired by Rabbi Pinchas ben Yair's teachings, we discuss how enthusiasm becomes the stepping stone to virtues like cleanliness, purity, and humility, ultimately guiding us closer to God. Through engaging anecdotes and profound insights, we uncover how this passionate energy can combat negative traits such as laziness and anger, encouraging a practice-focused approach to spirituality.Emotions can be overwhelming, but what if expressing them could strengthen your connection with God? In this episode, we emphasize the importance of vocalizing our emotions and thoughts, drawing from the wisdom of the Torah. By acknowledging Hashem's role in our lives, we can transform feelings of jealousy and find acceptance in our circumstances. As we face life's challenges, we explore how increasing our spiritual devotion through Torah, prayer, and good deeds can help us embrace hardships with love. Let's journey together towards inner peace and spiritual growth by maintaining our closeness to God, trusting in the belief that everything unfolds according to His just and loving plan._____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)Recorded from a live audience presentation in the TORCH Centre - Levin Family Studios (B) in Houston, Texas on February 10, 2025.Released as Podcast on June 10, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

It seems beyond doubt, since 9/11, that the main responsibility of intelligence and security services is to prevent ticking bombs from going off. The thing is, though, that the West has been confronted with international terrorism and domestic political violence throughout the 1970s as well. And although intelligence organizations countered terrorism, prevention did not become the name of the game. In a case study of the Netherlands, this book explores—based on unique primary sources and from a novel conceptual approach—how the threat of terrorism was looked upon and what kind of intelligence activities were carried out to contain or counter it. The book puts into focus how the rise of terrorism in the 1970s challenged the existing perceived core functions about intelligence. Based on the work of social geographer Ben Anderson, who investigates how interventions in the present are legitimated in the name of imagined (catastrophic) futures, it is analyzed how the Dutch domestic security service Binnenlandse Veiligheidsdienst (BVD) scrutinized traces of terrorism between 1968 and 1978. It confronts these insights with the post-9/11 counterterrorism efforts. By doing so, the book paints a fascinating picture of core functions of intelligence more generally. Guest: Dr. Constant Hijzen (he/him), a research fellow at Universitet Leiden. Dr. Constant Hijzen focuses on the history of intelligence and security services. He uses the intelligence and security services as a lens to study broader political, societal, and bureaucratic dynamics that are at play in this specific domain, with a special focus on cultural factors and mentalities. Host: Jenna Pittman (she/her), a Ph.D. student in the Department of History at Duke University. She studies modern European history, political economy, and Germany from 1945-1990.

In this high octane episode, Callum and Rebecca Jenkins discover how Saahil Mehta, an internationally renowned peak performance coach and author of Break Free, helps to declutter your life, lead with intention, and unlock your full leadership potential, in business and beyond. Saahil shares his three-step "Break Free" process, the mindset shifts required to let go of people pleasing, and how climbing mountains has taught him how to navigate life's biggest challenges  including those high-stakes conversations leaders often avoid. What You'll Learn: The “7 Summits” of Personal Success:  Why leaders must define their own version of success and not borrow society's. Decluttering for High Performance: How to remove emotional, physical, and mental distractions to gain clarity and momentum. From People Pleasing to Personal Power: Saahil's breakthrough moment on a retreat that changed how he shows up in life and business. The 5 Steps to Manage Difficult Conversations: How to address  conversations with empathy, understanding and clarity Boardroom Lessons from the Mountains: Why preparation beats improvisation in high-pressure situations Key Takeaways: Confidence is built by doing the hard things, and real leadership starts with self-leadership. Leaders don't rise to the level of their ambition, they fall to the level of their preparation. Conversations aren't won through force, they're earned through empathy, clarity, and courage. Saahil's Wisdom: “You don't need to react. You need to respond. That's where the breathwork, the pause, the clarity,  it all comes in.” “You may not know your full purpose today, but your soul should leave this life better than it entered.”
