  "Menexenus" is a dialogue written by Plato in which Socrates delivers a funeral oration in honor of Athenian soldiers who have died in battle. The dialogue takes place between Socrates and Menexenus, a young man who has just returned from the funeral of his own father. In his oration, Socrates uses the occasion to criticize the way in which Athenian leaders often exploit the deaths of soldiers for their own political gain. He argues that true patriotism and heroism are not based on fame or glory, but on the love of one's country and fellow citizens. Overall, "Menexenus" is a thought-provoking exploration of rhetoric, patriotism, and political manipulation, making it a valuable addition to the philosophical literature of ancient Greece. Read in English, unabridged.

  Varnaprast The Sublime Yoga Of...

  Varṇaprastha is a stage of life in the Vedic tradition often considered as the third stage in the four stages of life (āśrama) outlined in the ancient Vedas. Varṇaprastha, which means "retiring into the woods," is characterized by a gradual withdrawal from worldly affairs and a focus on spiritual pursuits. The stage of Varṇaprastha is typically undertaken by people in their fifties or sixties after they have completed their duties as householders and raised their children. In this stage, individuals are encouraged to devote themselves to spiritual pursuits, including meditation, prayer, and the study of religious texts, and detach themselves from material possessions and desires. 
   
  During Varṇaprastha, individuals are expected to detach themselves from their families and communities gradually and to live an ascetic lifestyle. They may choose to live in seclusion in the forest or in a hermitage, or they may continue to live with their families in a more detached and spiritually-focused manner. The purpose of this stage is to prepare individuals for the final stage of life, sannyasa, in which they renounce all material possessions and dedicate themselves fully to spiritual pursuits. The stage of Varṇaprastha is considered an important part of the spiritual journey, allowing individuals to focus on their spiritual growth and prepare themselves for the eventual goal of liberation from the cycle of birth and death. 
   
  As baby boomers retire and enter their later years, many are turning to spirituality and religion as a source of comfort and guidance. Some are seeking a deeper connection to a higher power, while others are looking for a sense of community and purpose in their lives. This trend has led to an increase in the popularity of yoga, meditation, and other spiritual practices among this generation. 
   
  Narrated by author, Emmy-nominated actor, and lifelong Bhakti yogi Sripad Jagannatha Das.

  “God knows your breaking point. You simply don’t know your own strength.” 
   
  “Everything begins in the mind. If you want to see clearly, you need clear vision.” 
   
  Swami Satchidananda was the founder of Integral Yoga International. He taught the birthright of all is to realize the spiritual unity behind the diversity throughout creation and live harmoniously as members of “one universal family”. Swami was born into a loving spiritual family on December 22nd in 1914 during the month known as Margali, the Dawn of the Devas. From an early age, Swami (or Ramaswamy as he was known at the time) displayed many spiritual tendencies and a deep dedication to the truth. 
   
  Thus at the age of 28, he decided to devote himself full time to his spiritual practice. There then followed a period of seeking the wisdom and blessing of various saints and sages. Although a sannyasin Satchidananda was active in serving others and was happy to use modern technology to disseminate the teachings of yoga. Like many great Saints, Satchidananda believed all religions could lead seekers to the same goal. His interfaith motto was “Truth Is One, Paths Are Many.”
