00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,400

I'm Maria and I'm Mark

00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,100

and this is Juicy magic

00:00:17,900 --> 00:00:19,666

the daily yeah

00:00:21,266 --> 00:00:22,566

we're having a blast doing this

00:00:22,566 --> 00:00:25,133

can't wait to do this every day makes our day

00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,400

thanks for tuning in how are you today

00:00:29,166 --> 00:00:33,366

let's just take a moment to relax our bodies

00:00:34,066 --> 00:00:36,233

they might have a cup of herbal tea

00:00:36,233 --> 00:00:40,233

and yesterday's podcast was about making a cup of tea

00:00:40,233 --> 00:00:43,000

and offering it with love and devotion

00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:47,266

and then savoring it you know really appreciating

00:00:50,233 --> 00:00:54,266

the anecdote to those destructive elements of greed

00:00:54,266 --> 00:00:56,900

lust and anger are really

00:00:58,466 --> 00:01:01,266

faith and hope gratitude forgiveness

00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:03,800

patience patience

00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:09,333

Lord knows I've got a lot of work to do

00:01:10,300 --> 00:01:11,266

Maria knows

00:01:11,900 --> 00:01:13,000

actually I'm really grateful

00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,633

Maria is one of the more patient people in the world

00:01:15,633 --> 00:01:18,300

and she teaches me every day

00:01:19,166 --> 00:01:20,100

yeah so patience

00:01:20,100 --> 00:01:21,833

oh today I wasn't that patient

00:01:21,833 --> 00:01:22,200

no no

00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,766

actually she was not patient today

00:01:23,766 --> 00:01:24,966

but anyway ha ha

00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,600

the great thing about um

00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,066

acknowledging your own faults

00:01:29,066 --> 00:01:30,633

and really meditating on them

00:01:30,633 --> 00:01:32,400

to some degree is that

00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,666

you don't really see the faults so much in others

00:01:34,666 --> 00:01:35,466

you really

00:01:36,466 --> 00:01:38,266

it's such a gift to

00:01:39,633 --> 00:01:45,500

slow down and appreciate life and

00:01:47,033 --> 00:01:49,600

just see the best in others

00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:52,800

yeah I was impatient with you

00:01:53,666 --> 00:01:55,766

it's a very common trait of mine

00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,633

but then he made me these wonderful cups of tea

00:01:58,633 --> 00:02:01,566

and everything was well again ha ha

00:02:03,100 --> 00:02:06,133

gotta know how to grease the wheels in a relationship

00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:06,466

no I

00:02:06,466 --> 00:02:07,500

and that's the beautiful

00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:08,966

thing about being in a relationship

00:02:08,966 --> 00:02:10,000

is that it's a

00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,233

it's an ongoing process

00:02:12,233 --> 00:02:17,433

it's a daily practice just like our Sathana Bakti yoga

00:02:17,433 --> 00:02:19,533

the practice of

00:02:19,900 --> 00:02:22,400

loving god through devotional service to him

00:02:23,666 --> 00:02:25,833

we're gonna do some elements

00:02:25,833 --> 00:02:27,500

let's start with some garong breathing

00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:30,700

we're gonna do 10 garongas garong

00:02:31,266 --> 00:02:33,966

he whose body is more beautiful than molten gold

00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:35,400

just sit comfortably

00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,233

relax your shoulders when you do this exercise at home

00:02:39,233 --> 00:02:42,466

you can shorten or lengthen the breath

00:02:42,466 --> 00:02:45,333

depending on your own capacity

00:02:45,966 --> 00:02:48,600

but just for the sake of this podcast

00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:49,800

we'll do it together

00:02:50,366 --> 00:02:51,233

it's really nice

00:02:51,233 --> 00:02:53,533

wherever two or more are gathered in my name

00:02:53,666 --> 00:02:55,200

there I am between them

00:02:55,566 --> 00:02:58,300

it's a beautiful quote from the Bible

00:02:58,300 --> 00:03:02,866

so the more senses you engage in a process

00:03:02,866 --> 00:03:05,666

the more your senses become absorbed

00:03:06,300 --> 00:03:10,600

so just take some comfort and surround in

00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:11,966

transcendental sound

00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,166

oh God

00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,300

one more time

00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,100

no it felt like some lightning struck me

00:05:49,566 --> 00:05:50,933

it was like boom

00:05:51,833 --> 00:05:53,300

oh my God sorry

00:05:53,300 --> 00:05:55,166

struck down by transcontinental sound

00:05:55,166 --> 00:05:56,266

that's pretty nice yeah

00:05:56,266 --> 00:05:58,533

sometimes that happens yeah yeah

00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,766

so what do you wanna talk about today

00:06:03,966 --> 00:06:05,433

well I thought that you know

00:06:05,433 --> 00:06:07,066

we were on this little

00:06:07,066 --> 00:06:10,566

we like to share the little habits and tips tricks

00:06:10,566 --> 00:06:11,000

hacks

00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,866

tools throughout the day that really help keep us um

00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,800

focused mindful

00:06:19,233 --> 00:06:20,100

humbled

00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,800

and um one of these things that we love to do is

00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:25,900

we love incense

00:06:26,766 --> 00:06:28,233

and after being in India we know

00:06:28,233 --> 00:06:30,500

why it's such an important part of temple worship

00:06:30,500 --> 00:06:32,900

is things are so concentrated there

00:06:32,900 --> 00:06:34,166

so intensely

00:06:34,766 --> 00:06:36,000

uh populated

00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,600

and a lot of outside noise and quite a bit of dirt

00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:40,966

and I mean there's so much

00:06:40,966 --> 00:06:42,466

so many sacred sites in India

00:06:42,466 --> 00:06:45,200

but it's also from a material standpoint

00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:46,833

can be a very overwhelming place

00:06:46,833 --> 00:06:50,800

and also you get assaulted by some intense smells

00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,900

like in the west and in other places

00:06:53,900 --> 00:06:57,400

we often have very much sanitized

00:06:57,566 --> 00:07:00,166

you know and our garbage gets whisked away

100

00:07:00,766 --> 00:07:03,300

and there when you've got garbage in the streets and

101

00:07:03,666 --> 00:07:06,566

you know it's just in the middle of the road or it

102

00:07:06,566 --> 00:07:09,166

it gets pretty intense the smell

103

00:07:09,166 --> 00:07:11,400

and everybody around is you is sweating

104

00:07:11,466 --> 00:07:13,366

and even in winter I mean

105

00:07:13,366 --> 00:07:15,066

that was summer is for us

106

00:07:15,066 --> 00:07:16,700

it's winter for them yeah

107

00:07:16,700 --> 00:07:19,233

and everybody 30 degrees and 30 Celsius

108

00:07:19,233 --> 00:07:19,766

yeah they're like

109

00:07:19,766 --> 00:07:21,833

it's winter and they're carrying coats

110

00:07:21,833 --> 00:07:24,333

but you can smell the sweat everywhere

111

00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,566

it was really challenging

112

00:07:27,766 --> 00:07:30,100

well just like we were offering our tea yesterday

113

00:07:30,100 --> 00:07:31,133

our herbal tea

114

00:07:31,966 --> 00:07:32,900

we uh

115

00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:34,366

couple times a day

116

00:07:34,366 --> 00:07:35,966

we love to take a little bit of incense

117

00:07:35,966 --> 00:07:40,233

and beautiful thing about offering in the Bhagavad Gita

118

00:07:40,233 --> 00:07:41,900

Krishna says to Arjuna

119

00:07:42,466 --> 00:07:44,866

if one offers me with love and devotion

120

00:07:44,866 --> 00:07:46,833

a leaf a fruit

121

00:07:46,833 --> 00:07:49,966

some flower or water I will accept it

122

00:07:51,300 --> 00:07:53,300

and the sort of just like a child

123

00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,900

often can bring a piece of artwork to their parent

124

00:07:56,900 --> 00:07:57,700

and

125

00:07:57,966 --> 00:08:00,300

parent doesn't care about the quality of the artwork

126

00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:02,266

often at a young age it's

127

00:08:02,266 --> 00:08:05,733

it's the act of love it's the act of sweetness

128

00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,466

so if we approach the Supreme

129

00:08:09,033 --> 00:08:11,766

and the Supreme energy and the Supreme being with

130

00:08:12,633 --> 00:08:17,100

with attempts to feel humble and grateful

131

00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:21,600

and in awe and reverence

132

00:08:22,766 --> 00:08:24,266

and this sweetness

133

00:08:25,466 --> 00:08:27,866

that I am this I am a child of god

134

00:08:27,866 --> 00:08:29,833

and this is my parents

135

00:08:29,833 --> 00:08:34,366

my ultimate source of happiness and Protection

136

00:08:35,433 --> 00:08:38,366

and beauty and wisdom

137

00:08:39,100 --> 00:08:41,666

so we often just to light some incense

138

00:08:42,066 --> 00:08:43,600

I also have a love of lighters

139

00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,933

Maria can attest to that and tell her about the lighter

140

00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:48,400

yeah

141

00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,133

no when you go through an airport

142

00:08:51,266 --> 00:08:52,966

they confiscate them

143

00:08:53,300 --> 00:08:56,266

so you always have to replenish your lighters

144

00:08:56,966 --> 00:08:58,700

and sometimes they don't find them

145

00:08:58,700 --> 00:09:01,566

but often they just take them away from you

146

00:09:01,566 --> 00:09:04,533

so if you're burning incense like we do

147

00:09:04,966 --> 00:09:06,766

we always need to get new lighters

148

00:09:08,633 --> 00:09:09,800

yes you can take the

149

00:09:10,766 --> 00:09:12,600

it's another thing you can do while you're doing

150

00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,066

after you're done your garonga

151

00:09:14,066 --> 00:09:16,166

or just before you do your garonga breathing

152

00:09:16,166 --> 00:09:20,933

you can take a a nice incense stick

153

00:09:21,866 --> 00:09:23,233

you can close your eyes

154

00:09:23,233 --> 00:09:26,066

and with a little love and devotion

155

00:09:26,066 --> 00:09:27,366

you can offer it

156

00:09:28,566 --> 00:09:31,133

offer to god offer to all of life

157

00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,766

please accept this offering

158

00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,266

then you can plant it somewhere safe

159

00:09:39,266 --> 00:09:41,266

you know I never understood that

160

00:09:41,266 --> 00:09:44,900

he always lit a incense and then he carried it outside

161

00:09:44,900 --> 00:09:45,433

and I'm like

162

00:09:45,433 --> 00:09:48,500

why are you carrying it outside and uh you know

163

00:09:48,500 --> 00:09:48,666

164

00:09:48,666 --> 00:09:51,133

that little bird that hit the window the other day

165

00:09:52,066 --> 00:09:54,600

every every living entity will smell this

166

00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,366

this is known as prishadam or the lord's mercy

167

00:09:57,900 --> 00:10:00,300

Prishadam is also usually referred to food

168

00:10:00,300 --> 00:10:02,433

offered to god and then distributed

169

00:10:02,433 --> 00:10:06,466

vegetarian food stuffs lacto vegetarian

170

00:10:06,466 --> 00:10:09,566

but it's also you know

171

00:10:11,300 --> 00:10:13,100

it's inviting others in

172

00:10:13,233 --> 00:10:15,866

but it's also so much more because every

173

00:10:15,866 --> 00:10:19,366

we're travelling a lot so we change places a lot

174

00:10:19,566 --> 00:10:22,400

sometimes we sleep in different places every day

175

00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,066

and it's unknown and it's unfamiliar

176

00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,033

so so like always when Mike lights an incense

177

00:10:31,033 --> 00:10:35,200

I I kind of start getting the sense of home yeah

178

00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,233

so it turns

179

00:10:36,233 --> 00:10:39,933

it turns every space very quickly into a home

180

00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:42,666

that's nice

181

00:10:42,666 --> 00:10:45,566

we try to share more tips about really feeling at home

182

00:10:45,566 --> 00:10:46,766

wherever you go

183

00:10:47,433 --> 00:10:51,866

simultaneously not home in this world of material life

184

00:10:51,866 --> 00:10:57,266

but at home in the spiritual world and so um

185

00:10:57,833 --> 00:10:59,300

with great love and respect

186

00:10:59,300 --> 00:11:04,900

we offer you a little incense that's been offered oh

187

00:11:04,900 --> 00:11:06,733

and one thing I Learned in India

188

00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,300

I always just stand there

189

00:11:09,300 --> 00:11:12,300

but in India I Learned I have to take it yeah

190

00:11:12,300 --> 00:11:15,533

I have to take it so you can offer this to your spouse

191

00:11:15,700 --> 00:11:18,466

you just talked to a friend yesterday's he's

192

00:11:18,466 --> 00:11:20,700

he's new newly married and also going to be

193

00:11:20,700 --> 00:11:21,566

he's a father but their

194

00:11:21,566 --> 00:11:23,500

their baby is not yet out of the womb

195

00:11:24,066 --> 00:11:25,833

and then how nice this is that you can

196

00:11:25,833 --> 00:11:29,300

offer this to your spouse or your little baby and

197

00:11:29,366 --> 00:11:30,833

you know and they get the benefit

198

00:11:30,833 --> 00:11:33,466

and you can do the same with transcranial sound

199

00:11:33,666 --> 00:11:35,600
