Chakras are energy centers where consciousness resides, defining character and problems. Your destiny (prārabdha) is created by past karma before your body forms. You control your present karma through action, speech, thought, and influence, but once acted upon, deeds become destiny governing future life and all current problems. The Mūlādhāra Chakra is the root foundation of consciousness based on that karma. It is the earth element, colored red for energy and Mother Consciousness. Its awakening brings safety, wisdom, and pleasurable energy, not physical sensations. The chakra's symbols include a four-petaled lotus representing the four ways life enters the world, an elephant symbolizing wisdom and prosperity, an inverted triangle for energy flow, and a coiled snake representing past, present, and future karmas—the dormant Kuṇḍalinī Śakti. Śiva (consciousness) and Śakti (nature) seek union here. Exercises like Bhujaṅgāsana and Śalabhāsana activate this chakra, strengthening the back and influencing the root center for physical and mental balance. "As long as you are not doing anything, it is still under your control." "The awakening of the Kuṇḍalinī means wisdom. You become very wise, you become self-confident."

The jīva, or soul, seeks everlasting happiness, paramānanda, beyond fleeting pleasures. There are temporary happinesses that vanish and cause suffering. The jīva is eternal, indestructible, and cannot be perceived by physical means. It enters and leaves the body freely, untouched by fire, water, or any obstacle. Every being carries this divine light, driven to attain pleasure and remove all pain. Through the five elements, the jīva manifests the ten senses and is sustained by the life forces. Happiness and sorrow reside in the jīva, not in the body. Seeking joy in material objects yields disappointment because the world is impermanent. Disappointment itself is a process of change and growth. Attachment binds the jīva, like a caged bird prevented from flying. Renunciation requires constant movement to avoid forming attachments. The worldly life is inherently a place of disappointment, even for the Creator. Clinging to relationships brings suffering, for all are transient. Temporary pleasures inevitably turn into pain. Therefore, one must seek paramānanda, the supreme, undying bliss. The jīva is like a drop suspended over the ocean of ātmā; upon merging, individuality dissolves, and it becomes Śiva. All spiritual practices aim for this union, where the jīva finds true peace. "Each and every entity carries the light of God, and that light of God is not for this body only but for that soul, and that soul is life." "This jīva is like a drop of water on the whole of our palm, held over the ocean. This drop is jīva, and the ocean is ātmā." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Life is a flowing river of change, not a fixed circumstance. Each religious path defines its own virtues and sins, creating specific karma for its adherents. Historical interpretations of practice, like the use of wine, are often shaped by climate and later commerce, not original intent. Substances like alcohol are universally dangerous, causing immense suffering, yet are promoted in an age where commerce reigns. When faced with another's wrongdoing, remember that karma delivers consequences; one's duty is to spiritual practice or to depart the situation. Public fears are often magnified for commercial gain, overlooking nature's cycles. Anger over an unlived life is a common crisis, but the entire journey has not passed. One can still act, yet the ultimate preparation is for the next life. Existence is a train ride with a changing view; do not become attached to any single scene. Without spiritual focus, life is incomplete. "Life is like water, which is constantly flowing. When water is flowing, it remains clean. When water is stuck, it becomes spoiled." "Without the name of God, this life is incomplete and not good." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 248

The grandeur of bhajans and divine remembrance fills the gathering. The session was intentionally brief, yet it overflowed with spiritual potency. A request was made to Puṣpā, and one bhajan was offered with the possibility of another if it pleased the divine. The sisters sang with exceptional devotion and skill; their voices became vessels for the sacred and their singing pleased greatly. Such bhajans are not ordinary songs; they are pathways to divine remembrance. An introduction to the deeper significance of these bhajans will be given. This teaching will manifest tomorrow or the day after, illuminating the essence of devotional singing for all seekers. Life presents dualities like heat and cold, comfort and discomfort. Both sides of experience are embraced without resistance, and blessings are extended to all with the words ‘all the best’. The bhajans were very nice, and today is alright. The closing chant invoked holy names—Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān, Devpurījī, Mādhavānandajī—with reverence. Satya Sanātana Dharma was proclaimed as the eternal truth. The core teaching of non-doership arose: Nāhaṃ Kartā, the self is not the doer. Prabhudīp Kartā, Mahāprabhudīp Kartā, the divine alone acts. Only That Kevalam exists. Hari Om. Victory to Viśvarānandajī Gurudeva. "Today’s session was brief; I did not intend to do only a little, but the magnificent bhajans from our sisters were truly great." "Hari Om, Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān, Devpurījī Mahārāja Devakī, Mādhavānandajī Bhagavānakī, Satya Sanātana Dharmakī, Nāhaṃ Kartā Prabhudīp Kartā Mahāprabhudīp Kartā He Kevalam, Hari Om."
