Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Wie kann Kontemplation emotionale Muster verändern?Setz dich und sage zu dir selbst: Von dem Augenblick an, als ich aufstand, wie habe ich mich da verhalten?  Welcher Natur waren die Vibrationen, die ich ausgelöst habe? Was tat ich? Wie reagierten meine Freunde? War ich kritisch? War ich aggressiv? Hatte ich Verständnis? Hatte ich Mitgefühl?  2022-01-2706 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Was ist Maha Shakti?Die göttliche Mutter ist Maha Shakti. Maha Shakti bedeutet universelle Energie. Form und Formlosigkeit. Die Formlosigkeit umfasst das gesamte Universum.Die Formlosigkeit findet sich in den Bergen, den Flüssen, der Erde, überall im Universum. Die Sterne, der Mond, die Sonnen, all dies ist Teil der Energie der göttlichen Mutter.2022-01-2712 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Die Wichtigkeit von Toleranz und VerständnisMan muss den Menschen schon als Kinder beibringen, dass in ihnen eine Dualität existiert und dass, zum einem Zeitpunkt im Leben. der eine Aspekt der Dualität mehr Ansprüche stellen wird, als der andere.2022-01-2712 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Befreit euch selbst!Dies ist es, worum es im Leben geht: Du willst dich befreien, deine innere Kraft, deine Göttlichkeit entdecken. Dieses Drama durchlebst du, du kämpfst zwar um dein Überleben und um deine Anhaftungen - aber nichts davon, wird dir bei deiner Befreiung helfen.2022-01-2712 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Haben wir das Recht zu sterben?Ich möchte jede Chance für jedes Leben aufrechterhalten. Und ich gebe dir diesen Rat: Wenn du ein solches Kind siehst, geh zu ihm, klatsche in die Hände und sage zur Göttlichen Mutter: „Mutter, ich kann das vollständige Karma, mit dem dieses Kind geboren wurde, nicht verstehen. Bitte hilf diesem Kind. Du bist die beste Richterin, du kannst alles beurteilen. Ich bitte dich, hilf diesem Kind in Geburt und Tod." Das ist die beste Lösung für dieses Problem.2022-01-2707 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Ist das Böse eine Illusion?Ich mag es nicht, dieses Wort “Böse“ zu verwenden. Gut und schlecht sind keine intelligente Herangehensweise, um das Leben zu betrachten. Ich möchte, dass ihr die Ursache und den Effekt, den ihr auslöst, welcher positiv oder negativ ist, betrachtet. Positiv oder negativ bedeutet dann, dass ihr realisiert, was ihr tut, was die Konsequenzen für eure Taten sind. Das bedeutet, ihr realisiert, ob Liebe darin liegt, oder ob ihr andere Menschen, oder auch euch selbst, verletzt, in eurem Tun. Ich möchte, dass ihr das lernt. Jede Person muss verstehen lernen, was sie selbst in Bewegu...2022-01-2708 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Emotionale Muster vermeidenEltern glauben, dass sie alles wissen, und sie wollen aus Liebe alles tun, was im Interesse des Kindes liegt. Dies sind die Dinge, die manchmal in deinem Geist ablaufen, und dann fragt man sich, warum man diesen Kampf führen musste. Jedoch war dieser Kampf für euer Aufwachsen notwendig.2022-01-2704 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Wir sind immer verbundenIhr müsst jetzt auf euren eigenen Füssen stehen. Habt Vertrauen in euch selbst. Ihr habt das Vermögen und die Fähigkeit, genau das zu tun, was ich tue und mehr als das, wenn ihr es schafft, euch in das göttliche Bewusstsein einzuschalten. Diese Fähigkeit müsst ihr in euch selbst entdecken. Das ist es, worum es geht.2022-01-2707 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Wut durch Liebe entwaffnenLiebe ist eine höchst kraftvolle Waffe. Sie ist stärker als ein Gewehr. Mit Liebe kann man Menschen entwaffnen.2022-01-2704 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Was ist Christusbewusstsein?Christus war vergebend, Christus war voller Verständnis. Man soll andere nicht bezichtigen, dass sie etwas sind, das man selbst auch ist und realisieren, dass jeder Mensch die Möglichkeit hat befreit zu werden, in Jesus Christus. Denn Befreiung bedeutet, dass du beginnst, deinen Lebensstil zu ändern, die Energie Christi zu absorbieren, dein Herz zu einem Tempel für Jesus Christus zu machen.2021-12-2005 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Die Kosten unrechtmässiger KriegeIhr wisst, dass es den Gedanken gibt, dass man im Namen der Gerechtigkeit zur Waffe greifen kann. Aber ich kann in keinem der Kriege, die Menschen geführt haben, Gerechtigkeit erkennen. Um die Gerechtigkeit zu verteidigen, muss der Mensch seine Werte verbessern und diese verteidigen. Ich kann nicht erkennen, dass das, was irgendwo geschehen ist, gerecht wäre.2021-12-0314 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Gurus Beziehung mit der göttlichen MutterAuf diese Weise lehrt sie den Menschen erkennen, wer Gott ist, worum es auf unserer Lebensreise geht und was von uns erwartet wird. Das gilt nicht nur für mich.2021-12-0313 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Die Sadhanas von Japa Mantra, Meditation und PranayamaGott ist Liebe. Liebe ist Gott. Ihr werdet alle eure niedere Natur umwandeln, bis ihr die Liebe kennt. Liebe ist das, wonach ihr streben müsst, denn sie ist Mitgefühl. Sie ist Verständnis. Sie ist Vergebung. Sie verändert eure gesamte Natur und macht sie lieblich. Die Vergangenheit ist nicht mehr zu ändern , die Gegenwart ist präsent. Heiligt sie. 2021-12-0315 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Wahrhaftige GurusWisst ihr, es kommen eine Menge Gurus und Swamis in den Westen. Es tut mir leid das sagen zu müssen, aber sie haben keine Zeit für ihre Devotees. Sie kommen und gehen, leeren die Taschen ihrer Anhänger und reisen ins nächste Land. Und lassen ihre Devotees auf dem Trockenen sitzen.2021-11-0209 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Geistige Grenzen überwindenEs gibt keine Grenzen. Ihr transzendiert dann alle Materie, ihr transzendiert alle Grenzen und könnt mit Gott eins werden. Es gibt kein Dach auf eurem Haus. Manchmal kann das überwältigend sein für einen Menschen. Denn ihr erkennt, dass ihr euch innerhalb einer erstaunlichen Macht befindet und um euch herum existiert nichts außer ebendiese. Taucht in sie ein.  Vergesst alles und verschmelzt mit diesem Bewusstsein.2021-11-0206 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Wie man mit Meditationserfahrungen umgehtGlückseligkeit ist Liebe. Wenn ihr wahre Glückseligkeit erlebt, vergesst ihr, die Kontrolle über eure Sinne auszuüben. Die menschlichen Hemmungen sind nutzlos, wenn man in der Gegenwart Gottes ist. Du weinst und weinst und weinst. Sie werden Tränen der Glückseligkeit genannt.  Man kann sie nicht zurückhalten. Habt keine Angst.2021-11-0209 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Meistert euer Leben durch KontemplationJeder, der sich spirituell weiterentwickeln möchte, muss zunächst kontemplieren, bevor er meditiert. Wisst ihr, was Kontemplation ist? Kontemplation bedeutet, dass ihr eure Handlungen von dem Moment an, ab dem ihr aufsteht, bis zu dem Moment, indem ihr euch zur Meditation hinsetzt, betrachtet und versucht, die Ursachen und Wirkungen zu verstehen, die ihr in Bewegung gesetzt habt. Die für euch entweder hilfreich oder nicht hilfreich im Leben sind.2021-10-0815 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Guru trifft auf indianische Ahnen-HäuptlingeIch ging dort umher, und um mich herum waren all die alten Indianerhäuptlinge aus vergangenen Zeiten, um mich zu begrüssen. Sie waren sehr besorgt über das, was in ihrem Land geschieht. Ich habe sie nie vergessen. Ich bete immer für sie und ihren Erfolg.2021-10-0804 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Der Zweck der MeditationMeditieren bedeutet, die Kontrolle über sich selbst zu erlangen. Durch Meditation beherrscht ihr eure niedere Natur. Meditation reduziert eure Aggression.2021-10-0806 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaHow to deal with the loss of a parentOn the anniversary of their birthday, not their death, go to a church or a temple or place and put some flowers and say, "Thank you, this is in remembrance of you. May God grant you peace so you live on in the grace of God."2021-09-0303 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaThe importance of tolerance and understandingYou have to teach people from an early age when they are little children growing up, that there's a duality in them so sometimes one aspect of that duality will make more demands than the other.2021-09-0312 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaImmerse yourself in the DivineI know you are in a hurry to master yourself and the mind. To master the mind means you must get rid of your undigested thoughts. Why are they undigested? Because you have not spent time perfecting them or your actions. [Analyse] what you should be doing, how you should be doing it, and be aware of the causes and effects that you set in motion in your life. You have to perfect your thoughts to digest them. 2021-09-0315 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaHow can contemplation change emotional patterns?Sit down and say to yourself, "From the moment I got up what was my behaviour pattern? What were the vibrations I set in motion? What did I do? How did my friends react? Was I critical? Was I aggressive? Was I understanding? Was I acting with loving-kindness?"2021-09-0306 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaIf we are created from love how can we commit evil acts?You must be able to say to yourself, “I lost my temper. I see that, now why did I do that? I must control myself.  I must become aware and mindful, and then I am in charge of my whole being. I become depressed, I'm unhappy, I want more. Why? I am the master. I am the person who is free.”2021-09-0304 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaIs evil an illusion?I don’t like to use the word ‘evil’. ‘Good’ and ‘bad’ are very unintelligent methods of looking at life. I would like you to look at the causes and effects you set in motion, which are positive or negative. Positive or negative means you realise what you are doing and the consequences of your actions. It means that you realise what the results of your actions are.  It means that you realise whether or not there is love or whether you are hurting people, or yourself in the process. This is what I want you to study.2021-09-0308 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaConserving sexual energyReal ‘contraception’ is responsibility. Responsibility means that you choose one partner, settle down in life, and be responsible. We want to see that responsibility because [nowadays] people are using contraception as a way to enable more and more promiscuity.2021-09-0210 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaBecoming spiritually matureWhen you grow up, you throw away the things that you played with as a child. What matters then as you advance spiritually is that all the things that other people are attached to, you will soon push away. You think, “They are not for me. What satisfies me?” Why are you here? Why are you feeling within yourself a sense of satisfaction to come and have this interaction with me? Why?2021-09-0207 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaDeveloping sensitivity and awareness of everything you doWhen you sleep, sleep. When you eat, eat. When you work, work. When you play, play hard, never mind. When you laugh, laugh. You must be aware of all you set in motion in your body and your mind. You must be acutely alert then you develop your senses more and more to register the impulses from around you.2021-09-0207 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaDo we have the right to die?I want every opportunity for every life. My advice to you when you see such a child is to go to the child, clasp your hands together, and say to the Divine Mother, “Mother, I can't understand the totality of karma that this child is born with. Please help this child. I pray that you are the best judge of all this and that you will help to assist this child in birth and death.” That is the best solution to the problem.2021-09-0207 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaDisarming anger with loveLove is a most powerful weapon. You have got a weapon that is more powerful than a gun. You can disarm people with love.2021-09-0204 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaCan we progress when we feel sceptical about spirituality?I promise you anything that I have said in this room, I have applied, and I have experienced Divinity. I know what I am talking about, it is not what somebody else has handed to me on a plate.2021-09-0206 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaAvoiding relationship patternsParents believe they know it. With all their love they want to do what they believe is in the interests of their child.  Those are the things that sometimes recur in your mind and make you question why you had to have this battle, but this battle was necessary for you to grow up. 2021-09-0204 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaApplying what you learn on the spiritual pathI don't need to tell you, but I am telling you to discover your divinity.  You are divine - realise your divinity. Behave in the fashion and manner of a divine human being, and every day chip some of the old habits away. Push them away every day so that you discover your greater Self and your divinity. Then you will have great peace of mind.2021-09-0206 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaPreparing the body and mind to receive divine energyThe body is an instrument with which we work to discover the potential within ourselves, which is Divine. Your eyes, ears, voice, actions, and energies - all are but instruments with which to discover the highest embodiment within yourself.2021-09-0115 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaLiberate yourself!That is what life is about. You want to liberate yourself, to discover your inner power, and your divinity. That is the drama that you are going through. You are fighting for survival. None of your attachments will help you to become liberated.2021-09-0112 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaTreating animals as sacredWhen you have an animal or anything that is suffering say, “Come I will look after you.” Don't put yourself before an animal or life that is sacred. All life is sacred. When you begin to think like that, then you open the window of your heart for the Lord to dwell in it.2021-09-0111 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Was ist bedingungslose LiebeLiebe ist Mitgefühl, Liebe ist Verständnis. Liebe ist Vergebung, Liebe ist das sich integrieren, das eins werden mit dem anderen - und ohne diese Liebe kann nichts funktionieren.2021-08-2509 minGreat Minds - A Podcast from Frisco, TexasGreat Minds - A Podcast from Frisco, TexasFruits of the Spirit - Susan ThomasThe greatness of a man is not how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively - Quoted by Jamaican singer Bob Marley Today my guest is Susan Thomas, CEO and founder of Taking Care of Business Concierge Services.

Die Möglichkeit, sich spirituell zu entwickeln ist gegeben, wenn ihr euch diszipliniert habt und eure Aura golden ist.2021-07-0317 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Die beste Zeit zum MeditierenVersucht nicht, in der Mittagszeit zu meditieren, das ist keine gute Schwingung dafür. Findet einen Zeitraum in den frühen Morgenstunden oder am späten Abend. Ihr werdet bessere Ergebnisse erzielen, weil euch die Atmosphäre beruhigen wird.2021-06-2706 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Wie man betetEin Gebet muss von Herzen kommen und darf kein Lippenbekenntnis sein. Weg von der ganzen Förmlichkeit, hin zu dem Gefühl der Verbundenheit und Liebe.2021-06-2706 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Wie man Meditation angehtGeht nicht in den Wettbewerb mit anderen, denn das bringt euch nichts. Es wird euch frustrieren. Die Erlebnisse dieser Person gehören zu ihr und nicht zu euch. Ihr werdet eure eigenen Erfahrungen machen, haltet an ihnen fest, denn es sind eure. Seid geduldig mit euch selbst. Viele Leute kommen vielleicht zu euch und sagen: Oh, was ich für großartige Erfahrungen beim Meditieren mache“, sag dann: „Freut mich für dich!“2021-06-2711 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Freude auf dem spirituellen WegFreude! Das ist die Schwingung Gottes. Im Elend liegt kein Weg zu Gott, in der Freude liegt der Weg. Gott hat uns erschaffen, damit wir die in uns liegende Göttlichkeit verwirklichen. Wenn ihr unglücklich seid, werdet ihr niemals das Göttliche in euch verwirklichen. Beginnt den Tag mit Liebe, füllt den Tag mit Liebe, beendet den Tag mit Liebe. Wenn ihr niemanden zum Lieben habt, schaut in den Spiegel und sagt zu euch selbst: „Ich liebe Dich“2021-06-2715 minSanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Sanatana Dharma (Deutsch)Entdeckt eure GöttlichkeitIhr werdet niemals zufrieden sein, bis ihr nicht eure Göttlichkeit entdeckt habt. Bis dahin werdet ihr euch sagen: "Ja, ich habe all die Dinge, die ich wollte. Ich habe eine gute Arbeit, ich habe eine liebevolle Frau, die mich mit gutem Essen versorgt. Dennoch ist da etwas in mir, was mich unzufrieden macht." Darum seid ihr hier. Ihr wollt herausfinden, was es mit all dem auf sich hat, worüber die Leute reden, wie könnte euch Meditation weiterhelfen, wie könntet ihr die Verbindung zwischen Gott und euch entdecken….2021-06-2713 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaWhat is unconditional love?Love is compassion; love is understanding; love is forgiveness; love is to integrate — to become one — and without that love, nothing else functions.2021-04-2909 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaDiscover your divinityYou will never be satisfied until you have discovered your Divinity. You will always say to yourself, ”Yes, I have all things that I want. I have a good job and a very kind wife who makes good food for me. Yet there is something inside me that makes me irritable.” That is why you are here. You want to find out what it is that people are talking about; what is it about meditation that would help you - how can you discover the link between yourself and God.2021-04-2807 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaThe cost of unrighteous warsYou know there is a thought that in the name of righteousness you can take up arms. But I can't see any righteousness in any of the wars that man has fought. To defend righteousness, the human being must upgrade his values and defend them. I can’t see that what has happened anywhere is righteous.2021-04-2811 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaThe purpose of meditationTo meditate is to take control of yourself. Meditation masters your lower nature. Meditation reduces your aggression.2021-04-2804 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaThe best time to meditateDon't try to meditate during the midday period. it is not a good vibration. Find a time, early hours of the morning or late in the evening. You get better results because the atmosphere is slowly steadying and calming you.2021-04-2803 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaMaster your life through contemplationEverybody who wants to evolve spiritually must first contemplate before they meditate. Do you know what contemplation is? Contemplation means to go through your actions from the moment you have got up to the moment you are going to sit to meditate. To understand the causes and effects that you have set in motion that are helpful to you, or unhelpful to you in your life. 2021-04-2808 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaTranscending mental boundariesThere are no limits. You transcend all matter; you transcend all boundaries and you can become integrated with God. There is no roof to your house. Sometimes it can be very daunting for that person. Because you realise that you're in an amazing power, and nothing exists around you except that power. Immerse yourself in it. Forget everything and merge with that consciousness.2021-04-2706 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaJoyfulness on the spiritual pathJoy! That is the vibration of God. Miserableness is not a passage to God – joy is. The Lord has created us to realise the Divinity within us. Being miserable you will never realise God. Start the day with love; fill the day with love; end the day with love. If you have nobody to love, look at yourself in the mirror and say, ”I love you!"2021-04-2708 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaThe sadhanas of japa mantra, meditation and pranayamaGod is Love. Love is God. You will transform all your [lower] natures until you know love. Love is what you must aim to reach out to get, for it is compassion. It is understanding. It is forgiveness. It changes your whole nature to become sweet. The past is beyond recovery; the present is at hand. Sanctify it.2021-04-2709 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaWhat is an aura and what creates it?Where you have power, where you have discipline, your aura becomes golden. The opportunity for a person to advance spiritually is there when you have disciplined yourself and your aura is golden. 2021-04-2709 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaGuru's relationship with the Divine MotherShe educates the human being to realise who God is; what our life's journey is about, and to see for ourselves what is expected of us. This is not exclusive to me.2021-04-2708 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaTrue GurusYou know, a lot of Gurus and Swamis come to the West. I'm sorry to say, but they have no time for their devotees. They float in and float out, they pick the pockets and off they go to another country. And the poor devotees are left high and dry.2021-04-2706 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaGuru meets Native American Indian ChiefsI was walking through that place and there, surrounding me, were all the old, ancient Indian chiefs to greet me. They were very concerned [about] what was happening in the country. I have never forgotten them. I always pray for them, so that they will be successful.2021-04-2704 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaHow to approach meditationDon’t go into competition with anybody because that won’t do you any good at all. You’ll be frustrated. What that person experiences is for him and not for you. You will have your own experience and you hold on to it, that’s yours. Be patient with yourself. Lots of people will come to you and say, “Oh, in my meditation I get so many experiences,” say, “Good for you!”2021-04-2706 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaHow to deal with experiences in meditationBliss is love. When you really experience bliss you forget to control your senses. The inhibitions of the human being are of no use when you are in the presence of the Lord. You cry and you cry and you cry. They are called tears of bliss. There is no means of holding back. Don't be afraid.2021-04-2707 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaHow to prayPrayer must come from your heart, not from your lips. From all that format of formality, we have to change it to the feeling of the rapport of love.2021-04-2705 minGreat Minds - A Podcast from Frisco, TexasGreat Minds - A Podcast from Frisco, TexasHealth Desert - A View Point by Amanda ThrashToday my guest is Amanda Thrash, a Fellow in American College of Healthcare Executive and also Vice President - Operations and Support Services with Texas Health - Plano.

But She has created great power – She handed to me power to give you. If you think that this has happened just once or twice you are wrong. It has been a continuous drama for the last five years."

And he will re-enter the world bearing with him great power and a future for his own spiritual advancement."

Those angels will only again respond if the human being has truly, honestly, sincerely set sail in a spiritual path.

I understand why sometimes you are drawn to some special person of spiritual experience and content. I understand that, but that won’t liberate you. What will liberate you is your own hard work.

Do not pay any money for spiritual enlightenment. It is a sin for us to get involved in monetary remuneration. We are here to serve you." GURU SRI SUBRAMANIUM2020-07-0313 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaEmotional attachment"Whilst you have love, know that that love must be governed by the head. If not, the emotional side of the heart dominates the head. The head must control the heart." GURU SRI SUBRAMANIUM2020-07-0306 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaForm & formlessness"That incredible battle that rages in the minds of people that one is more superior to the other is a figment of ones own self-importance. Transcend all of these things! Realise that there is in the whole universe such power and energy undiscovered by the human being. Form and formlessness."

GURU SRI SUBRAMANIUM2020-07-0208 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaContemplation"Contemplation is mindfulness. Contemplation about all the causes and effects that you are setting in motion in your life. Contemplation is not only when you sit down before you meditate – it must be a recurring process in the human’s being life, enabling him to correct any mistakes that he or she is making." GURU SRI SUBRAMANIUM2020-07-0208 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaPranayama"People normally do not breathe properly. Most people are going around, opening and closing their mouth like a fish. And that encourages the body to be lethargic because the mind is not stimulated sufficiently with oxygen. The more you increase the oxygen then you will feel better and less drawn to disease."  GURU SRI SUBRAMANIUM2020-07-0212 minGreat Minds - A Podcast from Frisco, TexasGreat Minds - A Podcast from Frisco, TexasPandemic through Little EyesChatting with children is fun at the same time, it is a view that we get through their eyes. Many of us would have forgotten to look from a child's perspective. Talking to them unravels complexity in our lives and find some simple solutions to the complex problems. I talked to two elementary kids, Kuganesh from India and Negha from Frisco, Texas about their understanding of this pandemic, their future, and interests. Though they come from different countries and backgrounds, surprisingly their responses were similar. Kids are kids, I do not think they would discriminate. --- Support this podcast: https...2020-06-2808 minSanatana DharmaSanatana DharmaShiva, Shakti & SatyamThe first part of a series of discourses on mindful living and multi-faith spirituality, given in Kiental, Switzerland in 2000.2020-06-1444 minGreat Minds - A Podcast from Frisco, TexasGreat Minds - A Podcast from Frisco, TexasThe Change Seeker in the Primary CareMy guest is Dr. Guy Culpepper, a Family Medicine Specialist in Frisco, TX and has over 36 years of experience in the medical field.
