Morning Yoga practice from the international Yoga retreat Umag, Croatia on 29th of September 2010.

A spiritual discourse on the journey of the soul through birth, death, and karma. "Our soul—not the Ātmā, but the soul... the soul is individual, not universal." "Only two will follow us: our good or bad karmas. And that becomes destiny. And against destiny we have no power." A spiritual teacher explains the nature of the individual soul (Jīvātmā) as a wave of the universal resonance. He describes its journey through time, bound by karma, its entry into a physical body, and the rare opportunity of human birth. He emphasizes the inescapable law of karma governed by body, mind, speech, and wealth, and concludes that liberation comes through spiritual practice and the Guru's grace, which dissolves the soul back into the Supreme.

A spiritual discourse reflecting on the Kumbh Mela and warning against false spiritual powers. "If you bathe during that constellation, the nectar still has an effect on you—meaning it cleans your karmas and blesses you with immortality." "There is no austerity more than truth. To follow the truth is the biggest austerity, tapasyā—and no greater sin than to lie." Swami Avatarpuri begins by describing his profound experience at the Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, taking a sacred bath for all devotees. He then shifts to a cautionary theme, recounting stories of Holy Guruji exposing fraudulent fortune tellers and so-called healers. He warns devotees against those who claim siddhis (powers) like seeing auras or predicting futures, arguing these are obstacles to true spiritual progress. He advises focusing on genuine devotion and practice, sharing a personal story where Mahaprabhuji counseled him to be like a steadfast banyan tree, free from expectation.
