    Ep73- Bhagavad Gita Part1

    On this episode of the Gnostic Deluge we are discussing the first two chapters of the Bhagavad Gita. Prince Arjuna finds himself on one side of a dispute for a kingdom, two great armies are lined up on the battlefield, ready to fight to settle the argument.  In order to geta closer look at the enemy army, Arjuna has Sri Krishna drive his chariot between the two armies.  It is then that Arjuna sees that the other side is more than just the enemy, they are people that he grew up with and is related to.  With this realization, Arjuna loses his desire to fight. Sri Krishna consoles Arjuna in the midst of the battlefield and begins to reveal that this battle is only a small part of the true fight that goes on in the heart of man.  The true battle is to understand and become who and what we truly are, Enjoy!

    Ep72- The Sermon on the mount

    On this episode of the Gnostic Deluge, we discuss the most famous text in Christianity- the Semon on the mount (Matthew 5-7).  In it, Jesus lays out the blueprint of how his followers are to act.  It goes much deeper than the common things that are quoted and known by most people.  Hopefully our discussion will make you think on just what attitudes one needs to cultivate to be a true follower of Christ according to His own words. Enjoy!

    Ep68-Living on 24 Hours Part2: Reflective Mind

    On this episode of the Gnostic Deluge, we are finishing what we started last episode as we cover the second half of Arnold Bennett's "How to Live on 24 Hours a day."  Arnold showed us that we have time that we don't use productively as we are wrapped up in our daily work; now it is time to take back some of that time.  We can use the reclaimed time to start to develop, control, expand and explore our mind and begin to make the most of all 24 hours a day.  Enjoy!   Link to Arnold Bennett's book: How to Live on 24 Hours a Day by Arnold Bennett - Free Ebook (gutenberg.org)
