Yoga Nidra: The Yogi's Conscious Sleep
2:20 - 3:11 (51 min)
Recorded on
A guided Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) meditation session. "Yoga Nidra, the sleep of the yogi, is a deep relaxation technique... You remain completely aware, completely relaxed, yet at the same time completely conscious." "At the beginning of Yoga Nidra, you have the opportunity to make a Śaṅkalpa... Make a brief Śaṅkalpa with a short sentence." An instructor guides practitioners through a complete Yoga Nidra practice. The session begins with creating a personal resolution (Śaṅkalpa), followed by a detailed body scan for physical relaxation. The guide then leads awareness to the breath and prāṇa (energy) in the abdominal, chest, and throat areas, incorporating the mantra so'ham. The practice concludes by reaffirming the Śaṅkalpa, gently returning awareness to the room, and ending with a collective chant. Filming location: Vienna, Austria
The Inner Conflict of Śiva
3:15 - 4:10 (55 min)
Recorded on
A narrative discourse exploring the inner conflict of Lord Śiva following Satī's test of Lord Rāma. "Sometimes, to speak the truth is not easy. You hesitate to tell something; you do not want to lose face." "Therefore, God, please, you can take everything away, or may I lose everything, but not one thing: my belief, my devotion to you." The speaker recounts the mythological story where Satī, after testing Rāma by disguising herself as Sītā, lies to Śiva about her actions. Śiva, the knower of all, discovers the truth through his divine sight and is plunged into a profound inner conflict. He wrestles with a dilemma: to love Satī in her transformed state feels like a sin that would compromise his pure devotion (bhakti) to Rāma, yet he cannot reject his pure and faithful consort. The discourse uses this story to examine themes of truth, doubt, devotion, and the painful inner arguments that arise when faith is tested, concluding that only divine mercy can resolve such struggles.

Key themes include the spiritual principle of non-violence (ahiṃsā) behind vegetarianism, the subtle dangers of the Kali Yuga era, and the importance of steadfast spiritual practice, likened to receiving a protective vaccination.

An evening satsang featuring a spiritual discourse using the metaphor of a tree. "A great saint spoke of this, and Mahāprabhujī also told about it. Gurujī said to me that a big tree and humans are the same." "No one can burn me, no one can destroy me. I am eternal. As long as the earth is, I am with thee." Following bhajans, the speaker delivers a teaching on divine immanence and maternal compassion, personifying a tree as a self-giving mother who shelters all creatures, endures hardship, and provides endlessly. The talk includes a parable of a sādhu and an old tree felled by an axe, illustrating themes of impermanence and betrayal, yet culminates in the tree's declaration of its eternal, indestructible essence as a reflection of God.

A spiritual discourse weaving ancient creation myths with teachings on dharma and modern life. "Jīva jīva bhakṣate: all creatures eat other creatures. So that began to move." "Dharma is spirituality and good, not killing anyone, taking care of everyone. Adharma is the opposite." A spiritual teacher narrates a syncretic creation story, blending tales of Varāha lifting the earth, Brahmā's emergence from a lotus, and the evolutionary rise of life. He explains the primordial cycle of life consuming life (jīva jīva bhakṣate) and the subsequent establishment of dharma. The discourse shifts to contemporary lessons, advocating for non-violence, mindful consumption, self-reliance, and environmental responsibility, while cautioning against addiction.

To be independent
9:25 - 10:39 (74 min)
Recorded on
Evening satsang in the occasion of Gurudev's Birthday What means independency to you? Many people where witnessing several wars. The ambition to fight is in any human and animals too. When the human gets the ambition to fight for position, for money and creating or awakening cruel thoughts, to kill or damage properties, that means, that the animal qualities awakens in their body and intellect. That we call the animal instinct. When that awakens, then the human is blinded and focusing only on that illness. There is no remedy to cure such qualities. When the animal instinct comes into the human mind and emotions, means the ambition to fight for the position, or the money and for governing the rules, then only knowledge can give us freedom and liberation. The burning desire to get liberation, this is the independent day in the life.

Recorded on
A satsang discourse on the necessity of the guru and the goal of Advaita philosophy. "The moment you begin to think you have already heard and know everything, in that moment your free fall begins." "Understand from this that the guru is not the physical body. It is most important to understand that the guru is that Guru-Tattva, the element of the guru." A speaker leads a satsang, emphasizing the eternal student's attitude and the critical role of the embodied spiritual master (Guru-Tattva) as the essential guide. Using stories and analogies—such as the matchbox with a diamond, the friend with a boat, and the river merging into the ocean—the talk explains the guru's function and explores the ultimate goal of yoga: to transcend the cycle of rebirth and realize the Advaita (non-dual) union of the individual self with the cosmic Self.

A morning satsang on the purpose of human life and spiritual discipline. "Human life is a great blessing. There must be some reason why the Creator gave this soul a human body, human intellect, human talents. This is to attain realization, self-realization, to step out of the cycle of birth and death." "Śaṅkarācārya said in Aparokṣānubhūti: 'Vairāgya, the pure vairāgya, is that from the earth till Brahmaloka, all bhogas you should renounce like the dirt of the birds.'" Swami Avatarpuri Ji opens with greetings and feedback on the satsang stream.

He then expounds on the preciousness of human life as an opportunity for liberation, discussing karma, the importance of mercy and renouncing harsh words, and the need to master the senses. He emphasizes the vital role of proper diet, traditional yoga, and prāṇāyāma for physical and mental well-being, cautioning against commercialized yoga practices.

How to train our mind?

A spiritual discourse on taming the restless mind using a parable from Gurudeva. "Our mind is chanchal. Chanchal means very restless, and that is normal for a human mind, but you need to learn how to train and tame your mind." "In the same way, our minds are very restless, running around. We should just let it go; that is its job, to roam around and have thoughts continuously. Then, slowly, slowly, train your mind towards Guru Bhakti." A speaker recounts Gurudeva's parable of a king's untamable horse and the patient trainer who tamed it through gentle, persistent companionship and reward. The story serves as an analogy for taming the restless mind through devotion to the Guru and the path of Bhakti, rather than forceful suppression. The session concludes with the guided recitation and explanation of a Sanskrit mantra focused on meditating on the Supreme Self within the heart. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
