================
Raghu is joined by Dr. Robert Svoboda for a conversation about karma and the Tantric traditions.
Dr. Robert Svoboda is the first Westerner ever to graduate from a college of Ayurveda and be licensed to practice Ayurveda in India. During and after his formal Ayurvedic training he was tutored in Ayurveda, Yoga, Jyotish, Tantra and other forms of classical Indian lore by his mentor, the Aghori Vimalananda. He is the author of twelve books including Prakriti: Your Ayurvedic Constitution and the Aghora series, which discusses his experiences with his mentor during the years 1975 - 1983. In the years since 1986, Dr. Svoboda has traveled extensively and often speaks on Ayurveda, Jyotish, Tantra and allied subjects in locales across the world.
Show Notes
At the Left Hand of God (Opening) - Robert introduces the Aghori sect and discusses the importance of shakti in their practice.
“The word ghora in Sanskrit means terrible, terrifying, intense, horrific and difficult to deal with in every possible way. Aghora means the opposite of that. Aghora is one of the names for Lord Shiva, Shiva, of course, is the Lord of Transformation and The God of Dead, who has transcended beyond the reality of death and he is the being who is able to provide people with a good transition between realities. So Aghora is taking things like death and all kinds of undesirable things and finding out how they can benefit us.” - Dr. Robert Svoboda
Internal Alchemy (13:10) - We hear a few stories about Robert’s mentor Vimalananda. He explains the Guru’s philosophies on Soma and other substances meant to connect us with other planes of reality.
Law of Karma (24:40) - Raghu and Robert talk about karma and navigating a world that only becomes more and more complex. Robert offers a practical understanding of karma and the ways we can better connect with our reality.
“Inevitably, karmas being what they are, each karma we experience is going to try and push us in a particular direction. So if we take a little bit of time every day to try to keep ourselves as alert and awake as possible; to reflect on what we have done and try to be awake, in the context of what sometimes are very complicated situations that don’t have immediate solutions, and keep moving forward.” - Dr. Robert Svoboda
Ram Dass explores the laws of karma on Ep. 19 of the Here and Now Podcast.
Tantra (42:00) - Robert discusses tantra and the role of the guru in tantric practice.
“If you want to become a weaver, you don’t want to try and reinvent the wheel. You want to go to a person who is a master weaver because that person has already gone through the grind and embodied the art of weaving in himself. ” - Dr. Robert Svoboda

Dr. Svoboda is awesome, i can hear him for hours. Thanks Raghu for inviting him and this wonderful youtube vdo.
I being born in India, has not met a single guru. But you both being foreigners have come from far from a different culture altogether and realised God. Namaste to you both great souls. I need your blessings for me to meet a guru
Past life Karmas and Rnanubandhas

I had the opportunity to have dinner meet and have dinner with Raghu and his son Mathew because of our late friend Romeo (Aurum Rhae) some six years ago. How lovely seeing you two together on a video, i remember mentioning The Aghora book to Raghu and he said Robert Svoboda was a dear friend and recommended another lovely book. :)
Always pleasure to listen to Robert!
Om Namah Shivaya

Awesome interview
Very good interview. Very calm and relaxed. The dance of the intellects seemed in sync, sirs.
Namaskar ! I really enjoyed the talk ! Thank you !🙏❤️🕉️
Great to watch 🙏
thanks much for the reference to Ma Narmada! you can fly to Raipur (RPR) and travel by road to Amarkantak, 227 km [141 miles] to the north
Very knowledgeable 🙏🙏🙏
Please do another interview with him
There's a couple of live ones with him and Duncan Trussel.
The Aghora triology is amazing. I bought the first book and read it travelling through India in my early 20's and it blew my mind. I even managed to get my mum to read it! She said 'those guru's are obsessed with penises and sex..' hahahaha
what do you get out of the book?
@@thothtrismegistus929 where to begin...
So how are u now?
You started any Sadhana of your own?
40:00
that’s why i m done with manifestations and give my life in a hands of god!
OM NAMAH SHIVAY..JAI SREE RAM JAI SHREE KRISHNA🙏
Thanks sir.
this is really good.
Good stuff
Hi Robert, when are you in London - I read your book and would love to meet you! Thank you 🙏
the roads have been 'tolled' for a few years now from Indore (now international) airport - making it much easier to get to the banks of Narmada in Maheshwar. i curate/produce Yoga & Yajnya spiritual and cultural experiences here to benefit SwAr Ashram's charity initiatives and highly recommend Narmada darshan anywhere from Amarkantak to Baruck. where we are - right in the middle, the heart of India (as well as the heart of Narmada) has its very special sacred sites going back to the Sivapuran as well as more recent 300 year old heritage culture revolving around a rare rulership by a beloved and highly evolved queen. we are located on the ghat at the east end of her fort.
think the first book was written in 86 did ram dass read it?
which tv show is he talking about??
See the energy of Swami Dev Murti Ji... Age 100+ and speak like 21 year young. czcams.com/video/MVBenzde8-4/video.html Few of famous lines.. जंगल की शोभा झाड़ी से, रोगी की शोभा नाड़ी से, मरद मुछ ओर दाड़ी से। तुलसी यह तन खेत है, मन वचन कर्म किसान | पुण्य पाप द्वै बीज हैं, बवे सो लवे निदान ।।-
What is god.
all there are superstitios ,all this is bulshit, better go and help the hungry in the valleys....
Why are you here if you dislike it so much ?
If all is BS, then why help the hungry? Why this superstition that it would do some good? To each his own.
In other words what you are blabbering about is law of karma in effect. Try and understand first what you are saying.
@@absax GO to the root of the Problem you moron, all this drama will distract you from real thing....Your thinking creates a division, me and They and as long as this thing is there nothing can be done, by writing bundal baaz books there is nothing there,,,,all this law of karma this and that is for advantageous classes, human made is human correctible by revolution only....
Then go help insted of crying here
😂u all suckers 😅😂
I am so happy, I met these beautiful souls here, real practitioners, Emaho! Thank you from the deep of my heart.
