Yoga is the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness, achieved through harmony and balance. The cosmic energy governs the universe, and this principle of union was discovered by ancient yogis. The individual soul is a spark of the divine light, present in all life. We originate from the cosmic sound and are composed of the five elements. Our journey involves many births, guided by karma, as the soul moves through forms and relations. The human body contains dormant energy centers called chakras, connected by 72,000 channels. Three primary channels—Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna—regulate energy, mind, and activity, converging at key points to form the chakras. These centers correspond to the elements and levels of consciousness, from the earthly Muladhara to the divine Sahasrara. Activating these centers through practice leads toward liberation. "Yoga means union—the union of the individual consciousness with the cosmic consciousness." "What is existing in the universe is existing in your body." Filming location: Croatia DVD 182a

The path to supreme consciousness requires strict discipline, as taught in Raja Yoga. Patañjali guides aspirants step by step, but the first condition is self-discipline. Without it, no practice leads to realization. The greatest obstacle is laziness, which must be conquered. Six inner enemies—desire, anger, pride, greed, delusion, and ego—hunt the aspirant like lions. One must not be a slave to desire. Therefore, ancient research began by controlling diet. Unnatural food creates anger, jealousy, and greed. A vegetarian diet of fruits, vegetables, nuts, and fresh milk creates a pure, healthy body. Greed must be avoided; take only what you need. These dietary practices support meditation, which is the way to inner peace. Mantra repetition, received from a true master, is essential; it purifies consciousness. Use a mala for counting mantras, and practice with love and devotion. Fasting once a week develops discipline and purifies the body. For meditation, sit in a proper posture, use a mudra, and harmonize with your environment before beginning. "Without discipline, you will not reach your point of realization." "Meditation is the way to inner peace, the way to contentment, the way to happiness." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The spiritual significance of bhajans is surrender, awakening, and union. Lay the whole burden of life in the Divine's hands. Live in the world selflessly, pure as a lotus on water. The body is a fine shawl, born with divine breath, but ignorance stains it. Through devotion, purify it. Seek shelter from anxieties and the net of maya. Repeat the name. Meeting the true Guru destroys all doubts and reveals God within the heart. The inner flame unites with the eternal. Karmas are crossed. Awake from the sleep of ignorance; human life is a precious diamond, not for outer wealth but to realize the Atma. Use the senses for the Divine: eyes to see, ears for wisdom, mouth for chanting. Release fear; the Guru offers liberation. Overcome ego and bow. The Divine seems near yet hidden, but through mercy, the seeker becomes one. Transcend identification with thoughts and body. Call upon God for help. "I am in thy shelter. Please remove my anxieties." "Then I became one with you through the mercy of my Gurudev, and there is nothing else existing."

The inner longing for joy turns one inside through Om. We are always searching for everlasting joy, safety, peace. Saints say, go inside. Mīrābāī cries out, “I cannot live without you.” Creation came out of Om. Saints know this Aum secret and abide in bliss, that consciousness. Through practice we purify the kośas and contact the higher self, eternal consciousness. From Om arise the guṇas, then māyā, the world. We are like a fish thirsty in water. Om is the highest symbol of God. Repetition of Om awakens divine light, destroying worldly sorrows. Without Aum practice is incomplete. Through Aum comes ānanda; all karmas are purified, blocked energies opened. The guru incarnates again and again to give this knowledge and practice for realization. He shows the path to independence, needing nothing. Repeat the name of God without wasting time. After many lives, longing arises and the guru finds you. Give up passion, anger, pride, greed, jealousy; nothing belongs to you. “I am like a lotus without water, or a dark night without a moon.” “Through the chanting of Aum you will cross the ocean of the world.” Filming location: Debrecen, Hungary
