In this episode, I discuss two chapters of the book Yoga and Health, by Selvarajan Yesudian and Elisabeth Haich. I focus on respecting the body and the instincts, and how to bring the mind in harmony with the body in order to become whole and live in a higher plane of existence. I talk about the difference between real hunger and civilized appetite. I explore the great temptation, shame, and what it means to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, what it means to sin against nature, against your body, and the natural order and design. I look at free will, pleasure, the way humans turn instinct into an end of itself, and how we subordinate our intelligence to the service of our instincts. This episode is centered on food, nutrition, keeping your thoughts positive, and how to love your body and develop it to become a vehicle for the manifestation of the spirit so that we can live for the highest good.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
