kirtaniyah sada hari: The effect of good news
http://theaspiringchanter.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-effect-of-good-news.html
Sister site: everyday gita (redirect). Tuesday, October 21, 2014. The effect of good news. Hearing good news about others affects people in different ways. Personally, the feelings it evokes within me serves as a barometer of how emotionally healthy I am and my relationship with the individual. Feelings of joy and "they totally deserve it" are what I aim for. However, in instances where it dredges up not so pleasant emotions, I realize I have internal work to do. Not soon after, he came back and immediat...

kirtaniyah sada hari: June 2012
http://theaspiringchanter.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Sister site: everyday gita (redirect). Saturday, June 23, 2012. Have you ever felt like you had certain gifts to offer the world, but something was holding you back? If so, you're in good company. For a few years now I've been feeling that way. In many ways I feel that Krsna has blessed me with different talents, to the extent that it makes me feel confused. In fact, I often look at those who have one specific talent that they are exceptional at doing and think, "I wish I was like that." Why? Recently I'...

Living In Zoe's World: Road Trip to Cincinnati
http://livinginzoesworld.blogspot.com/2011/03/road-trip-to-cincinnati.html
Living In Zoe's World. Monday, March 21, 2011. Road Trip to Cincinnati. It has just been such a busy couple of weeks with dental and doctor appointments for myself.not Zoe. She's tolerated me not feeling well and finally getting my life back to normal and getting to go out for our usual evening walk in the rain or snow. While making our way through the neighborhood we found this establishment and as you all know I just had to hang out of the car window and take a picture. Sunday, August 14th, 2016.

kirtaniyah sada hari: May 2012
http://theaspiringchanter.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Sister site: everyday gita (redirect). Thursday, May 31, 2012. Facebook Validation, Anyone? I don't go on cnn.com very often, but two days when I was randomly glancing at various articles on the website, one caught my attention. It was an opinion piece titled "Facebook threatens to 'Zuck up' the human race.". Now, I think most of us need this validation to varying extents, with or without Facebook. Memories of high school anyone? Then you too have been bitten by the bug of needing social media validation...

kirtaniyah sada hari: February 2013
http://theaspiringchanter.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Sister site: everyday gita (redirect). Sunday, February 10, 2013. As some of you may know, I've taken on the challenge of writing on a verse of the Gita daily (www.gitaasitis.com). That's why I haven't been writing as regularly as I would like to here. That being said, today I wrote some reflections on Chapter 2, Verse 10 of the Bhagavad-gita and thought I'd share it here. On the surface, this verse seems pretty astonishing. Krsna is smiling at Arjuna's grief? What kind of God is this? Our problem is tha...

kirtaniyah sada hari: my inspiration for today
http://theaspiringchanter.blogspot.com/2012/12/my-inspiration-for-today.html
Sister site: everyday gita (redirect). Tuesday, December 25, 2012. My inspiration for today. 8220;Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? I remember the way I felt the first time I heard this, "Wow, that's totally applicable to me and everyone I know! The need to be seen. Im not...

http://theaspiringchanter.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Sister site: everyday gita (redirect). Friday, January 4, 2013. Last week as I was sitting down to chant my noon gayatri I realized something. I was trying to chant all the mantras really quickly as though I had some place to get to immediately. Truth was, the only thing I had lined up afterwards was checking my email! So why the need to rush? Similarly, as I hit fast forward in almost everything I do, I'm starting to realize the only person I'm short changing is myself. As aspiring bhakti yogis one ...

kirtaniyah sada hari: September 2012
http://theaspiringchanter.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Sister site: everyday gita (redirect). Tuesday, September 11, 2012. Last week pretty much anything that could irritate or annoy me became irresistibly attracted me. Whether it be a person who had just finished smoking sitting next to me on the bus (when there were clearly other available seats) to my least favourite exercise instructor (who thinks screeching is a form of encouragement) subbing in for my favourite one- the list goes on and on. But it was more than that. What is it that I'm defending?
