  America's First Guru The Message...

  Sripad Jaganantha Das

  "Always try to represent yourself as happy. Initially, it becomes your look, gradually it becomes your habit and finally it becomes your personality." 
   
  "Comfort is no test of truth. Truth is often far from being comfortable." 
   
  "Desire, ignorance, and inequality – this is the trinity of bondage." 
   
   
  In a teeming, often-suspect ocean of gurus, mystics, fakirs, yogis, perfect masters, and various other self-proclaimed incarnations of the godhead who have stepped foot on American soil over the years in pursuance of their spiritual ambitions, Swami Vivekananda was arguably the first, finest, and resolutely most authentic. A simple, austere man, he was a mountain of spiritual power made more impressive by his innate kindness, humility, and compassion toward all. 
   
  In this impossibly rare collection, the great master speaks for himself via a long-lost recording based on the philosophical, esoteric, and transcendent teachings of his beloved Hindu faith, or Sanatan Dharma (everlasting truth). Further, there is featured a profound collection of some of the swami’s finest thoughts on life and the spiritual path narrated by Sripad Jagannatha Das. 
   
  All in all, here is an intriguing, inspirational, historic audio biography of one of the most famous but yet, oddly, least known of the spiritual titans of his time and beyond. An absolute must for all serious yoga practitioners and devotees of truth. A true, unexpected spiritual treasure.

  Is it possible to end the thousand yesterdays? - 13 November 1968 
  • Living together amicably, creatively, in complete relationship with one another 
  – if that is what is essential then we need not only a different kind of mind but 
  also a different quality of affection, love. 
  • What is the function of a religious mind? 
  • Our struggle in life is dualistic: good and bad, right and wrong, holy and unholy, 
  the ideal and the fact. There is only the fact, not the ideal. 
  • Is it possible to look at life as though you are looking for the first time? 
  • What is the content of the unconscious? It is the racial residue, the traditional, 
  the family, the personal. It is as trivial as the conscious mind. 
  • Q: It seems to me that the ‘I’, the ego only exists in relation to other things. 
  Could you comment on this? 
  • The impossible becomes possible only when you discard the impossibility of it. 
  To find out anything you must go beyond the impossible. 
  • Q: What do you mean by meditation? 
  • There is no ‘how’.

  Did you know that Egyptians mummified beef ribs for their dearly departed to enjoy in the afterlife? That Roman gladiators were relegated to a vegan diet of grains and beans? That the fast-food hamburger was a result of a postwar, high-efficiency work ethic? This is not a cookbook; instead, How Would You Like Your Mammoth? is a chronological journey through the culinary history of humankind, with fifty short, snackable essays packed to the brim with juicy tidbits and cultural insights. With author Uta Seeburg as your guide, you'll learn not only which dishes are linked to key cultural moments, but also how each represents the social hierarchy and values of the civilization that invented it. 
   
  Discover how and why: the Columbian exchange gave Indian curry its spicy kick; roasted swan became the centerpiece of choice in spectacle-loving 1650s high society; a Portuguese princess helped popularize tea in England; the first dish ever to be prepared live on television was an omelet; and much more. 
   
  Foodies and history buffs alike will savor every amusing yet educational historical snapshot, from one of the oldest recorded recipes (lamb stew with barley and onions) to out-of-this-world food fit for astronauts (dehydrated chicken soup just like mom used to make).
