The Sole Necessity of Guru's Grace
11:10 - 11:57
|
From: 6 Sep 2021
A spiritual discourse on the absolute necessity of the Guru's grace, illustrated with parables and observations on life.
"Without the grace of the Guru, nothing can be. We may think we can do without it and believe we are okay, but that is not how it is."
"Guru kṛpā hi kevalam. Guru’s grace... When Gurudeva’s blessing is there, then everything is possible."
The speaker, likely a swami, delivers a satsang emphasizing that all spiritual progress and worldly harmony depend solely on the Guru's grace. He expands the concept of Guru to include parents and the supportive community of village life, using anecdotes about street dogs and a detailed parable about a devoted disciple, his wife, and a test of sacrifice to illustrate the depth of true devotion and the singular source of blessing.

The Soul's Journey
12:05 - 12:58
|
From: 10 Sep 2012
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.

Evening satsang from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. There are many beautiful apples, but some of them are rotten because a wasp infected them. When a person is spoiled, the wisdom that he got is lost. In the shelter of Gurudev, if the faith is not strong enough, some problems immediately come. A story about Kabir Das and the butcher. Those who are doing, will get the karma. The story of a man who wants to make problems for someone. Children have truth in their heart. We have to give a good message to the world. The fruit will show the condition of the tree. Karuna from Czech Republic speaks about Yoga in Daily Life helping biathlon athletes.

From: 25 Mar 2018
A spiritual discourse using the water cycle as a metaphor for the soul's journey.
"This jīvā, the soul, is on the journey of the eternal."
"When this drop falls into the ocean, the Jīva becomes the Ātmā. This drop becomes the ocean."
The lecturer gives a satsang, explaining the soul's separation from and longing to return to the divine source through an extended analogy of evaporation and rainfall. He emphasizes the purifying role of satsang and the Guru, shares anecdotes about introducing mantra in Eastern Europe and criticizes modern chemical pollution and vanity as spiritual impediments, concluding with a call for natural living and collective chanting.
