Clean Your Inner Conflicts

0:40 - 2:09|Recorded on 1 Oct 2007
Yoga in daily life extends beyond personal health to encompass society and planetary peace. It is not merely physical exercise but a comprehensive practice. The ego claims ownership of the planet, yet we belong to it as guests. This false ownership sows seeds of conflict—over territory, family, and caste—causing global unrest. True practice requires cleansing inner dissatisfaction and conflict. External rituals like wearing stones are less potent than polishing one's own inner being, the most precious stone. The practice of mālā is an offering of the mind; its power flows from the practitioner's thoughts and feelings during repetition. Caution is needed most from oneself. Yoga must transcend selfishness to include physical, mental, social, and spiritual health for the entire planet. The story of a devoted king tested by God illustrates the severity of trials required to uphold one's word and principles for the sake of truth, demonstrating the depth of surrender beyond mere theory. "Mother Earth has enough for everyone’s needs, but never enough for greed." "Polish your stone." Filming location: Vienna, Austria DVD 383

The play of manomaya kosha

2:15 - 3:04 | From: 1 Jan 2008
Kuṇḍalinī is the one cosmic energy balancing the universe and manifesting within every body. Prāṇa is this life force, governing bodily functions and uniting the five elements. The body contains 72,000 nāḍīs, channels for Prāṇa's flow, and corresponding chakras governed by Kuṇḍalinī. These chakras range from the Earth Chakra at the feet to the Human Chakras along the spine, connected to the elements. The Ājñā Chakra at the skull's base is the seat of consciousness and wisdom, the border to divine chakras. It is clouded by vṛttis, or mental modifications, which must be purified alongside physical and pranic impurities. Prāṇa is cultivated through consumption, speech, and thought; negative thoughts and harsh words generate harmful energy. The company one keeps shapes one's habits and path: satsaṅg leads to upliftment, while kuṣaṅg leads to downfall. The mind processes impressions from the five senses, storing them in the subconscious and generating desires. Control the senses, not the mi

Give More Quality To Your Life

3:10 - 4:29 | From: 26 Apr 2013
A mantra is that which satisfies and liberates the mind. The mind is never satisfied, like a bowl made of mind that gold cannot fill. It is like a ghost that demands constant work; without a task, it becomes destructive. The mantra gives the mind a steady job, trapping it in satisfaction. It is a sentence that slowly transforms us from within, cleansing darkness, problems, and doubts. The mind becomes tranquil, and meditation arises. The mantra guides us toward our aim of reuniting with our origin, the Absolute Divine. Mantras have two parts: one expresses your wish, the other is a prayer. The essence is: "Please vanish all darkness from my being, and let your light come into me." Light is knowledge; darkness is sorrow and ignorance. Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness, a path to spirituality. Its meaning is union—the oneness of individual consciousness with the universal. Our inner thirst is to return to that endless joy. Human life is given for this self-realization. To achieve it, follow ethical and spiritual principles and maintain the body through healthy living and disciplined practice. Yoga is a scientific system for the well-being of body, mind, and soul, leading to harmony and health. It begins with gentle, daily physical practice. Discipline is essential; start now. Life is given to enjoy, not to suffer. The body needs gentle care, not force or competition. "Please vanish all darkness from my being, and let your light come into me." "Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness. It is a primary step, a philosophy, a path to spirituality." Filming location: New York, USA

Yoga is a science

4:35 - 5:54 | From: 16 Mar 2005
Yoga is the science of body, mind, consciousness, and soul, a universal principle of balance and harmony. Our subject is Kuṇḍalinī and the chakras, the hidden powers in human consciousness. The chakras are centers that receive and circulate cosmic energy through the body. We possess five bodies or layers: the physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and causal bodies. The causal body holds desires and the potential for divine bliss. The soul is a collection of karma and qualities; it does not dissolve until self-realization is attained. Chakras must be purified through mantra and practice for the Kuṇḍalinī to awaken safely. Without proper guidance, this awakening can cause imbalance and distress. Life is love, and love is God. Creating friendship and walking the path with love is essential. The world is a field of karma for development, yet one must remain detached like a lotus in muddy water. The first chakra, Mūlādhāra, is the root foundation. Its red color represents concentrated energy and the earth element. The lotus symbolizes remaining untouched by worldly temptations while fulfilling one's duty. The four petals represent the four aims of human life: dharma (duty), artha (wealth), kāma (righteous desires and progeny), and mokṣa (liberation). "Yoga without spirituality is like a body without a soul; no achievement can take place without spirituality." "If you protect your dharma, dharma will protect you." Filming location: Australia

Practising Asanas from Vep

6:00 - 6:57 | From: 24 Aug 2023
A yoga practice moves from stillness to dynamic movement, integrating precise alignment with collective rhythm. Begin in Śavāsana, lengthening the neck and stabilizing the lower back. Simple movements prepare the body, emphasizing synchronized group action over individual stretch. The practice progresses through leg lifts, spinal rolls, and postures like Śaśāṅkāsana, which calms fear and aids digestion. Dynamic sequences in Vajrāsana and variations like Uttānapṛṣṭhāsana strengthen the trunk and spine. A forearm Marjari variation mobilizes the thoracic spine. The session concludes with guided relaxation, allowing any comfortable position before rehydration. Synchrony and mindful breath are central throughout. "Śaśāṅkāsana reduces the fear in our heart, the stress and fear." "This will strengthen our whole trunk muscles. It will make the spine straight." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

We are cosmic travelers

12:15 - 12:53 | From 1 Sep 2000
The Mūlādhāra Cakra is the seat of dormant primal energy and the beginning of spiritual awakening. The red spot symbolizes the third eye of wisdom that burns all impurity. The Mūlādhāra is the foundation, containing all potential like a seed. Its awakening feels like emerging from darkness into the safety of a mother's lap. The journey of this energy to supreme consciousness is long, like a river flowing to the ocean. This chakra is depicted as a lotus, symbolizing beauty and creation while remaining detached from the worldly water. It has four petals representing the four ways life enters this world. An inverted triangle within it symbolizes creative energy; if not awakened, this energy flows downward. A mighty elephant with seven trunks represents prosperity, strength, and the earth's minerals. Within resides the Śiva Liṅgam, the pillar of consciousness, around which a snake representing time is coiled. Spiritual practice awakens this snake to rise, granting vision beyond time. The

The Guru is the only one near God and understands all. You are all brothers and sisters. God has done everything well, providing this space. The Guru is the highest and will do everything.

Organic farming in Netherlands

From 3 Aug 2023
A farm's journey from industrial production to living in harmony with nature. The operation shifted from unprofitable mass cultivation to a diverse, organic system. This includes greenhouses using rainwater and biological pest controls. A large food forest integrates vegetables, fruit trees, and nitrogen-fixing plants. The focus is on sustainability, natural cycles, and creating a resilient ecosystem. The work is driven by passion and a good feeling, valued more than financial return alone. The aim is to grow healthy food while enhancing the land for the future. "Nature can do a lot. So, if a plant is sick, then it can make itself better." "It is much more important than money: a good feeling, nice to be busy with your passion." Filming location: Netherlands
