A satsang on the mission of human life and spiritual education. "To be born, eat, drink, sleep, and procreate is not the sole aim of human life; other creatures are also expert at this." "Rahiman dhāgā prem kā, mat todo chitkāya, toḍā phir jūḍe nahīṁ, jūḍe gāṁṭ paḍ jāya. (The thread of love, do not break it out of some doubt or anger. Once broken, it cannot be joined again. If joined, there will be a knot.)" Swami Maheshwarananda welcomes parents and attendees, dedicating the gathering to supporting a disciple's new yoga center. He explores the unique purpose of human life, emphasizing the cultivation of kindness, forgiveness, and understanding. The discourse outlines three essential forms of education: from parents and family, from school for intellectual development, and spiritual knowledge (parā vidyā). He stresses that the ultimate human mission is to realize God and unity, advocating for a life of selfless service, maintaining loving relationships, and building a legacy of good deeds.

A spiritual discourse on the Viśuddhi chakra, happiness, and internal purification. "Happiness is within ourselves. Peace is within ourselves. And unhappiness is from outside." "It is said that in life, when we walk... beside you is walking your death. You can see it is like the shadow, the shadow of your body." Swami Anand Arun leads an evening satsang, exploring the sources of happiness and unhappiness through analogies and stories. He uses the parable of a couple's 50-year misunderstanding over a piece of bread to illustrate how unspoken resentments act as a poison, stored in the Viśuddhi (purification) chakra. The talk connects this to the myth of Shiva consuming the cosmic poison, advocating for forgiveness, clear communication, and daily pranayama to purify this negative energy and prevent physical and emotional ailments.
