Dr. Svoboda explains our tumultuous world through the lens of Rahu, an Indian shadow planet that influences our world. This week on Living with Reality, Dr. Svoboda shares: *The confusing, multi-polar, world which we are living in *The current manifestation of Rahu (a shadow planet in Indian Astrology) *The myth of The Churning of the Ocean of Milk and Rahu’s cosmic origin *How those influenced by Rahu are highly interested in scheming, immortality, and grandiosity *The three times of Rahu in the United States (The birth of the United *States & Revolutionary War, 1895-1913, and 2015-current times) *Tremendous concentrations of wealth vs. poverty and great confusion around the truth *Navigating how to live through 8 more years of Rahu *The current U.S. president as an incarnation of Rahu *Grandiosity, spiritual inflation, and ego-driven delusions in times of Rahu *Following Ayurveda and being with Sangha as antidotes to the effects of Rahu *Putting our focus on nature, our guru, and a vision of a more peaceful future “Human beings are being strongly influenced by shadows, in particular the shadows on their screens. Yes, those are colorful shadows and they're back-lit, but they’re still shadows. They’re representations of reality that claim to be real, when in fact they’re simply shadowy images. Image more than actual reality is what Rahu is all about.” – Dr. Svoboda About Dr. Robert Svoboda: Dr. Robert Svoboda is the first Westerner ever to graduate from a college of Ayurveda and be licensed to practice Ayurveda in India.
