A proposito di questo titolo

 The Golden Thread is a spiritual anthology podcast narrated by Harmonia, the mythic voice of balance and memory. These stories are not myths or sermons, but remembrances--real moments when something sacred touched the world. Across centuries and continents, we follow the thread of spirit as it appears in markets and monasteries, deserts and libraries. Not to preach, but to witness. Not to explain, but to honor. Listen for the glimmer.copyright Red Buoy Media Spiritualità

  • Jenkin Lloyd Jones and the Parliament of Religions

    Jenkin Lloyd Jones and the Parliament of Religions
    Feb 22 2026
    In 1893, a Welsh-born Unitarian minister named Jenkin Lloyd Jones helped build something remarkable --- a gathering where the world's religions would meet as equals for the first time on American soil. But Jones wasn't just an idealist. He was a man who knew what it felt like to stand on the outside of a door that should have been open. That experience gave his pluralism roots. In this episode, Harmonia explores how Jones came to understand that religious freedom is indivisible --- that you cannot protect it selectively without eventually losing it entirely --- and how the Parliament he helped create planted a seed whose consequences we are still living with today.

  • The Seed and the Crossing

    The Seed and the Crossing
    Feb 21 2026
    In 1893 a twenty-nine year old Jain lawyer from Gujarat faced an almost insurmountable problem --- the monks of his tradition could not cross the ocean, yet the Parliament of World Religions was calling. Virchand Gandhi spent six months preparing himself to carry an entire tradition on his shoulders, crossed the water, and introduced the Western world to ahimsa --- the ancient principle of non-violence that would quietly reshape the moral imagination of the twentieth century. From Chicago to Gandhi's Salt March to the streets of Montgomery, the seed he planted grew into a garden that changed everything. This week, as we remember Reverend Jesse Jackson, we pause to recognize the gardeners who came before and the rich soil they left behind.

  • Sisters and Brothers of America

    Sisters and Brothers of America
    Feb 20 2026
    In September 1893, a young wandering monk from Bengal stood before thousands in Chicago and spoke four words that stopped a room cold. Swami Vivekananda hadn't come to argue or convert --- he had come to share, openly and without condition, a wisdom tradition that America had never encountered as an equal. What happened next surprised everyone, including him. His thunderous reception at the Parliament of World Religions was only the beginning. What followed --- city by city, lecture hall by lecture hall --- quietly built the infrastructure through which Eastern wisdom would flow into Western life for generations to come.
