The Taming of the Hungry Wolf

8:05 - 9:05|Recorded on 22 Jul 2026
Life is tiring. An idle brain gets bored. Boredom feeds the dark wolf inside. The dark wolf is hungrier. It seeks an adrenaline rush through greed. The five inner enemies are kāma, krodha, mada, lobha, ahaṅkāra. Reduce them using viveka. Choose buddhi over buddhū. The fight between heart and brain often lacks viveka. A pure heart emits purity. Impurity reflects back. Words pass through the subconscious. Talk with awareness, listen with patience. Without awareness, we are agyānī jīva. Trust in the guru’s boat. The guru bears the torch, showing the path. Four kṛpās exist: Deva, Śāstra, Guru, and Khud kī kṛpā. The mind is a drunk monkey bitten by a scorpion. Viveka aligns us with dharma. The past is gone, the future unknown. Be the best version of yourself. Awareness tames the monkey. Saṃskāras are given by parents and guru. We need treats like grace. Inner enemies increase desire, decreasing spirituality. Tame them like a horse. An ego trip fuels the fire. Spirituality has no comparison. Purity in devotion matters more than quantity. Evaluate thoughts: useless ones go. Fix yourself first. Clear vision removes mental trash. Use Viveka Cloud. Words reflect inner stink. Gurudev takes us across māyā. Ask who am I. The Ātmā changes bodies. Having a guru proves this is the last life. Mahāpuruṣas incarnate for us. Pray for Śakti, Bhakti, Vairāgya. Detachment means not being possessed by possessions. Walk the guru’s path. Satsaṅg is positive talk. Viveka determines your job’s nature. Change comes from yourself. Guru Tattva remains always. A sādhu’s life is a living flame. "One bad word which comes out of the mouth destroys ten rounds of mālā." "The possessions which you possess should not possess you one day." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The Harmony of Yoga and Āyurveda

9:10 - 10:14 | From: 25 Mar 2017
Yoga and Āyurveda are two wings for the soul's flight. This is a lifelong work of discipline. The first happiness is a healthy body, called niroga. A healthy family is the foundation; parents must remain together with children for harmony. Husband and wife require mutual understanding. Obedient children learn from parents who do not quarrel. Good neighbors are the fifth happiness. The sixth is having a milking animal and a kitchen garden. Āyurveda teaches that every plant has value, as shown in the story of Charaka. Discipline is essential: for medicine like chyavanprāś, follow strict dietary rules. Yoga begins with discipline; Āyurveda medicine begins with discipline. The cause of disease is eating constantly, which disrupts the digestive fire, Jāṭharāgni. Seek advice only from a trained Āyurvedic doctor who understands pulse diagnosis. These sciences make us healthy, grant long life, and aid spiritual achievement. The soul departs with speed, guided only by karma and spirituality. "The first happiness is a healthy body." "Yoga and Āyurveda will make us very healthy, happy, and give us a long life and spiritual achievement." Filming location: Rijeka, Croatia

Sanskrit names are important

10:20 - 11:02 | From: 18 Aug 2017
Āsana is a term with deep meaning in the yogic system, which is connected to the Sanskrit language. The word signifies a seat, a dwelling place, or a posture. One's yoga mat is a yoga āsana. The place one sleeps is an āsana. The specific postures, like Bhujaṅgāsana, are also called āsana. The term's meaning depends entirely on context. Yoga is a vast science greater than allopathic medicine, and its proper terminology carries inherent knowledge. Similarly, prāṇāyāma fundamentally consists of inhalation, retention, and exhalation. The Sanskrit alphabet resonates with the body's energy centers, and the language balances the mind. True communication begins with the heart's touch. "Wherever you sit, that is your āsana." "Prāṇāyāma is only three: pūraka (inhalation), kumbhaka (retention), and recaka (exhalation)." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The Guru Gītā and the Path of the Disciple

11:10 - 12:09 | From: 26 Jul 2026
The Guru Gītā and the Path of the Disciple The Guru Gītā is the foundation of morning sādhanā and the disciple's relationship to the Guru. The Guru Gītā comes from the Skandapurāṇa. Western mentality demands clear specification, only one true guru, and fears the wrong guru leads to hell. Advaita Vedānta sees all fires as real fire, just as all gurus manifest the Guru Tattva. Kangaroos jump from system to system with strong Mūlādhāra and oily New Age ideas. The Guru is the ship and the bridge across the ocean of māyā. Oils, gemstones, and rudrākṣa do not save; only practice saves. No one can practice for another. The real guru is your guru, with respect for all gurus. Vyāsa means compiler, not inventor; knowledge began with Śiva as consciousness. The Guru Gītā exists in versions of 182, 216, and 352 verses. Swāmījī removed unnecessary verses about āsana benefits and directions. Trust in Gurudev removes fear of planets, evil eye, and black magic. Doubt and depression are normal in discipleship. Transformation is painful, like the wasp and the worm. The wasp is the Guru; initiation is the sting; satsaṅg is the repeated sound. Secret knowledge means only the brave who dive deep can see the ocean floor. Pārvatī asks Śiva on Kailāśa to explain the Guru, and the Guru Gītā begins. "Real guru for you is your guru. And you have respect for all other gurus." "Only those who are able to hear that knowledge will hear that knowledge." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

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
