Shakti is everywhere
The unity of Śiva and Śakti is the non-dual foundation of creation and spiritual practice. The entire world is one family under one divine source. Śiva is Svayaṃbhu, the self-manifested source from the five elements, and the author of yoga. Śakti is the universal power or energy present in all things, not a gender. Every person contains this essence. Two fundamental powers exist from creation: Daivī Śakti, the divine power of protection and love, and Āsurī Śakti, the power of ignorance, hate, and cruelty. Darkness is removed by igniting the inner light of knowledge. All dualities in the body, like the two hemispheres of the brain or the two eyes, reflect this united energy. Through consistent practice and willpower, one cultivates the divine power to heal and achieve enlightenment.
"Śiva is the one who is called Svayaṃbhu. Svayaṃbhū means no one has created him—neither mother nor father."
"Darkness will not go, but we just make a little light within, in no time, darkness is gone."

Advice for practicing pranayama
True sādhanā is devotion from the heart, not mere ritual or fleeting emotion. The Pāṇḍavas failed to invite a ṛṣi for their yajña by citing their lack of performed sacrifices. Draupadī succeeded by declaring that each barefoot step taken toward a sage is itself a hundred yajñas, demonstrating the power of sincere reverence. Similarly, an unlearned brother who held only to God's name could walk on water through devotion, while his scholarly brother could not. Success comes from inner feeling, not external knowledge. Even the science of breath, prāṇāyāma, must be understood and practiced correctly from the heart, not just mechanically. Its purpose is to connect with the universal prāṇa that sustains all life.
"Each and every step taken toward sādhus or ṛṣis is equivalent to one hundred yajñas."
"Your mantras have no power, but you... you have this power that exists nowhere else in the world."

Yoga is for the whole Earth
A story illustrates human kindness and the universal essence of yoga. A medical situation in India prompted an immediate and coordinated response from contacts in Austria, arranging care and transport. This demonstrated a system where care is provided without discrimination, solely based on shared humanity. The event highlights a principle: we must take care of humans. The current age, Kali Yuga, is marked by division and the ego's declaration of "I am the best." Yoga is the means to cleanse the mind, and it is for all life, not any single country or religion. Yogic postures are inspired by nature—trees and animals. We cannot correct others, only ourselves. The correction begins by affirming "I am human" and recognizing our connection to all.
"Yoga is life, for the whole earth."
"There was no one word, religion, in Satyuga, Dvāparayuga, Tretāyuga."

Prayer for peace
A silent prayer for global peace was offered. This practice is Mauna Yoga, an inner prayer conducted in mental silence. Governments have advised quiet in places of gathering. The prayer is directed inwardly to the divine for all beings worldwide. This is a time for universal brotherhood and collective prayer for peace. Practitioners should maintain personal care and positive thought. The global community of practitioners continues through online connection. Service is provided selflessly, as all sustenance comes from the divine. Therefore, one should act without fear or anger, sustained by faith.
"All religions should join together. We all should pray to God that all humans, all animals, and this whole globe remain in a very clear, peaceful atmosphere."
"Yoga is for harmony, peace, and understanding. One should not think negatively of a person."
