April 15, 2023 Tales of Wisdom #1 - "The Blind Men" by Shyam Bhoraniya
This is a new series called Tales of Wisdom. Storytelling is a means to impart knowledge and wisdom. Complicated and difficult-to-understand concepts can be distilled by very simple analogies. Yogiji Maharaj, one of the Gurus of BAPS, was very fond of using stories.
In today's Tale of Wisdom, we jump straight into the truth at the core of Hinduism - the importance of a Guru.

February 20, 2023 "Breathe In, Breathe Out" by Dhira Patel
Taking a pause and dedicating time to relax or unwind is inherently incongruent with sacrificing comforts, adjusting to unexpected outcomes, and prioritizing the sole goal of success. The discrepancy is a limitation for translating "going with the flow" into our daily schema. While these difficulties are ever present in our lives, we can either let the hindrances define our decisions or choose to take a course of action that anchors our minds to our surroundings. This narration of personal experience is a reflection in staying grounded.

December 29, 2022 "Put Yourself First" by Roma Gujarathi
“With a composed mind, one should introspect every day: 'What have I come to accomplish in this world and what am I doing?'
(Satsang Diksha, Verse 145)

Self-care, or more specifically, spiritual self-care is often overlooked in our busy lives. But taking time to reflect or introspect is an important part of personal growth as well as a critical component of on one's spiritual journey. Listen how one individual has learned to incorporate introspection in her spiritual self-care regiment.
