Good eating
0:30 - 1:43

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.'"

Dharma and Karma
1:50 - 3:01

From: 13 May 2015
Yoga is the eternal path to self-realization, a source of endless knowledge beyond mere postures. The universal Self, or light of God, dwells within all beings, yet we are blinded by illusion. Human life aims to return to this origin, guided by dharma and bound by karma. Education from parents teaches spiritual principles, while worldly knowledge is far from the divine light. Space and consciousness are balanced in perfect oneness through yoga. Our duty is to help others and all creatures, for harming them is harming the light within them. Purification comes through discipline, meditation, and sattvic food, awakening the dormant energies within.
"Yoga is like a forever milky cow. Every day it gives you new milk, fresh milk."
"If you see yourself in everyone, this is the first step of self-realization."

How to train our mind?
3:05 - 3:26

From: 26 Jun 2024
The mind is restless and must be tamed. A king had a horse no one could ride. Many trainers failed by forcing it. A wise trainer did not force it. He simply followed the horse everywhere, building association. He let the horse come to him. Then he rewarded it with grass and slowly introduced a blanket. Eventually, he gently climbed on while petting it. The horse accepted him. The training took over a year through patient trust.
Our mind is like that horse. Let it run; that is its nature. Do not force it. Slowly train it towards devotion. When it calms, it will return. Grace makes this training possible.
"The trainer was different. He took the horse and simply let it be."
"Slowly, slowly, train your mind towards Guru Bhakti."
