A satsang discourse on the importance of sāttvic food, strong digestive fire (agni), and the karmic effects of our actions. "In yoga, it is very important to know cooking.

"That is such a great lesson to us, that we, like a Yogī, should have such a kind of digesting fire, that kind of agni, jāṭharāgni, to be able to dissolve everything." Swami Vivek Puri and another speaker lead a satsang, emphasizing the spiritual and practical importance of cooking and consuming sāttvic, vegetarian food prepared with good intent.

A spiritual lecture on the Mūlādhāra chakra and the nature of haṭha yoga. "Haṭha means that you try very hard; you use willpower. We must have the willpower to achieve something. Don't give up. Try, try, try." "Therefore it is: renounce and enjoy. If you want to be happy, if you want to enjoy life, then renounce." A teacher explains the foundational Mūlādhāra chakra as the root of energy and the seat of the dormant Kuṇḍalinī. He details the three primary nāḍīs (Iḍā, Piṅgalā, Suṣumṇā) and defines true haṭha yoga as the forceful application of willpower for spiritual union, distinct from common physical practice. Through stories—including an ant's perseverance and a Haṭha Yogī who renounces even Śiva's offer—he emphasizes themes of relentless practice, renunciation of desire, and the ultimate goal of awakening energy to unite with divine consciousness.

This is the place of kriya shakti and iccha shakti. If we purify this chakra, half way to our final goal is behind us. Manipura is the powerhouse of our body. Anahat is the place of our feelings. Vishuddhi is the door to the astral world.
