The Thirsty Horse and the Path of Spirituality

8:20 - 9:12|Recorded on 19 Aug 2018
The human soul seeks direction amidst universal stress, which persists from childhood through old age despite our efforts. We are like a thirsty horse frightened by the noise of a water pump; to drink, we must accept the noise. Our spiritual thirst must be quenched within the world's clamor. Time is an unstoppable reality, and individual karma is an inescapable truth that guides our journey. Good and bad actions create impressions upon the soul. The mind and its desires bind us, as illustrated by the transformations of Vālmīki and Tulsīdās. Liberation requires dedicated practice without proclaiming spiritual attainments, for such claims dissipate power. We must walk the path with humility, performing our duties while maintaining spiritual focus. "Time will not wait for us. It does not matter who is who." "Karma goes with us like the shadow of our body." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Navabda Bhakti I

9:20 - 10:13 | From: 1 Aug 2008
Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Vep, Hungary. A new education is needed to awaken universal love and spiritual consciousness for world peace. This education must be free, not one-sided, teaching respect for all religions, cultures, and laws. Humans are born for spirituality; it alone saves the world and awakens consciousness. The difference from other creatures is improving spirituality for God Realization. Spiritual consciousness creates sustainability and protects the planet. It begins with educating children and awakening through bhakti, which is love. The tree gives fruit even to one who throws a stone, embodying oneness without dualities. Inner peace is required for world peace. The heart beats only for the one Self; there is no two, only one God, one truth, one love in many forms. One must accept all spiritual paths. Spiritual growth, not economic growth, solves global problems. This is cultivated through practices like satsaṅg and the ninefold path of devotion, which includes un

Be the tool

10:20 - 11:04 | From: 10 Jul 2024
The spiritual path requires surrendering the ego's claim of being the doer to become a tool of divine grace. A dog pulling a chariot mistakenly believes it carries the entire load itself. Similarly, Hanuman once thought his great deeds were his own doing. Rama then sent him on a difficult journey to deliver a ring to a sage. The sage threw the ring into a vessel filled with identical rings from every divine incarnation, revealing that countless servants have come before. The practitioner must pray to be an instrument, allowing divine energy to flow through selfless service. All actions, like leading a yoga class, become energized when performed with the attitude of "I am not the doer." Spiritual work must be done invisibly, without seeking recognition, as showing off one's fasting or prayers feeds the ego. The guru's guidance acts as medicine that may stir up inner impurities, which is necessary for purification. Life is like entering a cold, testing ground; the aim is to emerge with one's inner purity intact. By focusing on personal cleansing through practice, one naturally illuminates the surroundings. "Only what is important for us is to understand and to pray to be the tool." "Always be aware of Hanumānjī when he realized that a lot, and so many, was before him and so much will be after him, and only pray for grace, for great luck, to get the opportunity to be the tool."

Good eating

11:10 - 12:23 | From: 3 Jul 2018
Our food choices, from potatoes to meat, are entangled with health, karma, and the difficulty of living purely in this age. Potatoes are often unhealthy due to pesticides and chemicals absorbed into the earth, which can take over a decade to purify. Many oils, like refined or cottonseed oil, are harmful and contribute to disease. Modern wheat has excessive gluten. The widespread consumption of meat creates collective sin and karma, stemming from the breeding, selling, and torturing of animals. In this Kali Yuga, we are often forced or tricked into consuming animal products unknowingly, through items like bread or oil. Our weakness and greed, along with market forces making meat cheap, drive this. The solution is to seek organic, local produce like good olive oil, and to diversify our diet with grains, beans, and preserved vegetables instead of relying on potatoes and junk food. We must relearn ancestral preservation methods. Ultimately, some advanced beings show it is possible to live beyond physical food, drawing energy directly from the sun or divine sources. "Sin is that which creatures, beautiful creatures, are there... torturing them, what they call halal, is a pain; the pain is the sin." "When we innocently eat something, and then God will say, 'You also ate,' and I will say, 'No.'" Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Merging into light

12:30 - 13:20 | From: 29 Jul 2014
Truly, there is no inherently bad day; only unfortunate events occur. All creation holds beauty that requires care, from plants to furniture. When something cherished is lost, sadness arises. Objects touched by a holy one carry value because of that personality, not money. Negative thinking alone is bad; before judging, negativity already dwells within. The wise do not grieve because the soul is immortal. Without knowledge of the soul, attachment to form causes sorrow. A saint’s passing is a merging into Brahman, not cause for sadness. The sixteenth day is marked by Sorsi Bandhara, a feast with gifts and pusp anjali. This offering of flowers connects to the sixteen siddhis of attainment. The moon’s sixteen kalas influence plant growth and immunity. Planting during the waxing moon yields stronger, pest-resistant plants. Devpuriji possessed such light that he could appear in multiple places simultaneously. He once appeared to Holi Guruji, saying he was going to Europe to help. Immortal saints are present wherever remembered; they never leave. Yet the physical heart still feels longing, for love is boundless. “Anything that has touched your Gurudev, keep it, for one day he or she will no longer be here. But you will treasure that it was her or his blessing.” “I am going to Mahesh… to Europe… but on the way, I saw you sitting here, so I stopped just to bless you.” Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Gurudev is a goldsmith

18:30 - 19:09 | From 1 Aug 2005
Welcome to the spiritual home. Its atmosphere is a blessing of presence. You have entered the Ashram, which is a Paras-stone. Contact transforms your substance, like iron to gold, but three qualities remain: sharpness, form, and danger. The Satguru, as a goldsmith, can break these with the hammer of knowledge. This process is a beautiful pain. We are here for lectures on Nāda-Yoga and practice. Questions can be submitted for public or private answer. Prayer and singing happen daily. Prasāda, a blessed offering, is distributed. It grants Satbuddhi—good intellect and thoughts—which leads to world peace. It brings Siddhi: health, joy, and prosperity. The divine itself seeks blessing. True value is understood through devotion, not transaction. Distribute prasāda intuitively, not by counting. We also celebrate birthdays and offer collective prayers for specific intentions. Heartfelt good wishes are a powerful blessing. "An iron knife is united with the Paras. What happens? The knife turns into gold." "Prasāda means blessing. Blessing means Prasāda." Filming location: Strelka Ashram, Europe DVD 224

The infinite love and blessing of Vishwaguruji

From 1 Dec 2024
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.

I do nothing; you do everything. The knowledge spoken here is the same as in the Bhagavad Gītā, leading to the Supreme God. "I am not the Guru; Swāmījī is the Guru." "I have given you everything. May you get everything that you want." Filming location: Slovenska Vas, Slovenia

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
