Why do so many of us get nervous when public speaking? Communication expert Lawrence Bernstein says the key to dealing with the pressure is as simple as having a casual chat. He introduces the "coffee shop test" as a way to help you overcome nerves, connect with your audience and deliver a message that truly resonates. After the talk, Modupe explains a similar approach in academia called the "Grandma test," and how public speaking can be as simple as a conversation with grandma.

Can We Reduce The Fear of Death? 28:12

9 днів тому28:12

28:12

Death is the most certain thing for any living entity and yet we know so little about it. It may come earlier or later in life but the inevitable always happens. Yet we carry out our actions and behave as if we are immortal and death does not enter our scheme of things. In a way that maybe a good thing because the fear of death may not allow us to be bold enough to do lots of things in life. Nevertheless, if we understand death then we will really understand life, and this will help us to live it fruitfully and happily and not be afraid when the end comes. Death is a very physical process and is the final shutdown of the life process leading to the exit of the “self” or memory from the body. Hence, I felt that it should be governed by physical, physiological and neurobiological laws. If we understand these laws, then I feel the fear and pain of death could be reduced. This curiosity and thinking has led to this discussion. The link to the article is here. https://nariphaltan.org/fearofdeath.pdf Will greatly your feedback…

Hawalaat - Audio Book by Jagdish Rajvanshi 7:11:21

My father late Shri. Jagdish Prasad Rajvanshi was a freedom fighter and was in Lucknow jail for 2.5 years during the 1942 freedom movement. He wrote a book on his experiences in jail during that time. It was titled “Hawalaat” and was written in Hindi and published in 1947. This is an audio version of that book created by the team at Gaatha on Air. I am extremely grateful to them for creating it. The book is out of print and there have been many requests by quite a number of readers who remembered reading it earlier on. I have digitized the book and put it on the net in 2018. nariphaltan.org/hawalaat.pdf Shri. Jagdish Rajvanshi was born on 16 November 1918 and died on 4 March 2006. In 2018 November was his birth centenary. Putting this book on the net at that time was a small tribute to this remarkable man and an unsung hero of the freedom movement. Shri. Jagdish Rajvanshi went to jail at a young age of 25 years. There were large number of such idealist youth who were inspired by Mahatma Gandhi and left their careers and future and joined the freedom movement. How I wish such a movement to come back again so that we can get rid of poverty, ignorance and hatred towards our countrymen. That will be a true independence. I have written quite a bit about my father in my many books. Readers are encouraged to read about him in my autobiography: http://nariphaltan.org/mylife.pdf I will be delighted to receive a feedback and comments on this book. Warm regards, Anil K.

Nature of Human Thought - Part 1; Thought and Memory Production 34:12

38 weeks тому34:12

34:12

In 2004 I wrote my first book entitled “Nature of Human Thought”. In it and in subsequent edition I tried to cover some ideas on how thought is formed and transmitted. The ideas were speculative in nature, but I tried my best, with the knowledge available at that time, to explain the mechanism of how thought could be formed in the brain and transmitted. The basic framework was explained but the details were missing. Since then, I have thought a little more about the subject and I present in this booklet a possible mechanism on neurobiological basis of thought production and memory formation (Part 1). And furthermore, a mechanism on how it is transmitted and its interaction with matter and gravity (Part 2). I also speculate on the unexplored possibilities which might provide a detailed mathematical foundation of the nature of individual thought. The full text of this podcast is here.…
