A spiritual discourse reflecting on the Kumbh Mela and warning against false spiritual powers. "If you bathe during that constellation, the nectar still has an effect on you—meaning it cleans your karmas and blesses you with immortality." "There is no austerity more than truth. To follow the truth is the biggest austerity, tapasyā—and no greater sin than to lie." The lecturer begins by describing his profound experience at the Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, taking a sacred bath for all devotees. He then shifts to a cautionary theme, recounting stories of Holy Guruji exposing fraudulent fortune tellers and so-called healers. He warns devotees against those who claim siddhis (powers) like seeing auras or predicting futures, arguing these are obstacles to true spiritual progress. He advises focusing on genuine devotion and practice, sharing a personal story where Mahaprabhuji counseled him to be like a steadfast banyan tree, free from expectation.

A spiritual discourse on the nature of divine beings, the soul, and the law of karma. "Devas means goddesses. Here, goddess means those Devas who performed good karma, meditation, pūjā, ceremonies, and helped all other creatures." "Karma hi deva hai. So, either it liberates you or it doesn't liberate you. It is punishing you or liberating you, it is your karma." The lecturer explains the Vedic concepts of Devas (celestial beings) and the soul, asserting the soul's genderless nature and criticizing beliefs that deny women a soul. He describes karma as a governing divine principle, using analogies like water and gold to illustrate the singular divine presence in all forms. The talk emphasizes the importance of conscious action, positive thinking, and avoiding negative speech, which attracts negative karma to oneself. He concludes with a parable about a master and a scorpion to illustrate unwavering compassionate nature. Filming location: Vienna, A. DVD 243

A spiritual discourse on divine grace and the Guru-disciple relationship. "I am not the Guru; Swāmījī is the Guru. He is our Swāmījī—he is the same." "I do not do anything; you do everything. All of you, thank you to all. Everything is very good." The speaker, in a state of devotional surrender, addresses a gathering, shifting between speaking as a humble devotee and as a channel for divine blessings. They emphasize that true guidance comes from Swāmījī and God, who resides within everyone, and repeatedly offers blessings for happiness, knowledge, and fulfillment to all present, concluding with a reference to the teachings of the Bhagavad Gītā.

A tour of an organic farm and food forest, detailing its transition and methods. We operate a biological farm and shop, growing without pesticides or artificial fertilizers. Our best-selling products are our own: peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, and lettuce. We also produce sauces and deliver to wholesalers. The business began with conventional tomato farming but shifted to a profitable organic niche market, which introduced more passion and challenge. We now cultivate diverse crops in three hectares of greenhouses using biological pest control and rainwater collection. A key practice is using numbered rows and a pest app with a biologist to manage issues naturally, alongside ducks that eat slugs. We also established a four-and-a-half-hectare food forest featuring vegetable plots, a permaculture tree garden, and a nut garden for future harvests. This approach fosters sustainability and a deep connection with nature, making the work feel purposeful rather than just a job. The entire system is our paradise, focused on good feeling and passion over mere profit. "Before, it was just plastic. Everything was very sterile, very clean. And now we just have it; it just grows in the ground. We live with nature." "It’s not that other people don’t do it well, but for us, this feels very nice. So that’s why it’s much more important than money: a good feeling, nice to be busy with your passion." Filming location: Netherlands
