Bengal Dacoits and Tigers-Sunity Devi

Ivan Brodsky, The Surgeon of Souls by Victor Rousseau.Dr. Ivan Brodsky more than merely a traditional doctor. Rather than trafficking in the healing of human ailments by means of conventional medical science, Brodsky takes the cases that requires a more psychical solution to heal the human soul itself. Equipped with a vast knowledge of the supernatural, the power of hypnosis and various scientific devices that can bridge the world between the living and the dead, we witness Brodsky, through the eyes of his assistant, set free spiritual manifestations of anger and fear, fend off an animalistic poltergeist, resurrect an ancient Egyptian mummy, prevent murder committed by a wax figure of Admiral Nelson and much more!Featured on Upanishads.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

Iphigenia in Tauris (Murray Translation) by Euripides.The apparent sacrifice of Iphigenia at Aulis by her own father Agamemnon was forestalled by the godness Artemis, who by an adroit sleight of hand that fooled all participants, substituted a deer for the daughter. Wafted magically away to the “Friendless Shores” of savage Tauris and installed as chief priestess presiding over the human sacrifice of all luckless foreigners, Iphigenia broods over her “murder” by her parents and longs for some Greeks to be shipwrecked on her shores so she can wreak a vicarious vengeance on them. Little does she expect her own little brother Orestes to be one of those Greeks brought to her altar. Possibly the most beautiful of the plays of Euripides, the Iphigenia in Tauris relates the final resolution of the dark tragedy of the House of Atreides.Featured on Upanishads.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.

It ranks among the oldest Upanishads, dating to the Brahmana period of Vedic Sanskrit (before the 8th century BC). It figures as number 9 in the Muktika canon of 108 Upanishads. It is part of the Chandogya Brahmana, which has ten Prapathakas (Parts). The first two Prapathakas of the Brahmana deal with sacrifices and other forms of worship. The other eight Prapathakas and their Khandas (Chapters) constitute the Chandogya Upanishad.Featured on Upanishads.Public-domain recording courtesy of LibriVox (librivox.org).This episode includes AI-generated content.
