66 The Dharma Path – Rama's Teachings on Leadership in the Ramayana (Part 2)

In the Ramayana Rama gives advice for leaders. I go through that list & see if his advice is still relevant in this 2 part video series. Live 10.7.2023.

0:00 – Intro to discussing Lord Rama's advice on how rulers should lead as based on Vedic principles, Valmiki's "Ramayana" Book 2 Chapter 100 (See this link https://valmikiramayan.net/utf8/ayodhya/sarga100/ayodhya_100_frame.htm)
2:33 – Sharing my new mystery novel "Soundtrack for a Murder in Maine" available on my website aaronjoyauthor.weebly.com
4:55 – Is Rama's advice good or have they been proven wrong, is Rama's good advice being done today
7:45 – Reading verses 37-39, misjudging enemies, unintelligent materialistic advisors
10:50 – Reading verses 40-48, supporting agriculture & farms, socialism
15:05 – Reading verse 49, Vedic/Hindu traditional view of women (To clarify: when I say "women going off to work" I meant women going off to an office job, or travelling for work away from the home, or working overtime at a job, etc., not women just doing work outside the home which they have always done; also it should be noted that today a woman might find herself in a job surrounded by all men, such on a construction site, and this is very different than the traditional role of a woman doing laundry with other women.)
18:18 – Reading verses 50-55, press conferences, disrespect by government staff, functioning government
22:15 – Reading verses 56-59, fair justice, false accusations, Trump guilt determined by media not from court rulings vis a vis public opinion as law
28:34 – Reading verses 60-64, respect to elderly & children, materialistic interests disrupting virtue
32:20 – Reading verses 65-67, avoiding 14 failings of leaders
35:50 – Reading verses 68-70, avoiding 10 evils of leaders
42:27 – Reading verses 71-76, virtuous leadership
44:01 – Ancient Vedic wisdom is still relevant to modern society

For seekers who’ve outgrown spiritual fluff.
This isn’t about trends, vibes, or blind devotion. This is real talk for real seekers.

🎙️ Each episode is part of a larger journey. This isn’t random content—it’s a structured path into deeper truth, not easy comfort.

I’m Premanand Das Bhagat (Aaron Joy), in Portland, Maine, USA.
I followed the so-called spiritual path—believed everything and anything, joined a cult, and ran in circles. Through honest effort, deep unlearning, and painful self-awareness, I found clarity in Sanatana Dharma (Hinduism).

Now, I speak to those who feel the same disillusionment.
If you believe in asking questions, rejecting lazy universalism, and using logic and scripture together to navigate this chaotic world—you’re in the right place.

🕉️ I'm a Integral Vedic Counselor, Certified Spiritual Life Coach and Ayurveda Specialist. I'm a student of Dr. David Frawley and devotee of Sri Dharma Pravartaka Acharya, following the non-Advaita, non-Universalist Vaishnava lineage of Ramanuja. My spiritual name was a gift from Dr. Chaturbhai Babaria (Swaminarayan Gurukul USA).
