A spiritual discourse exploring the nature of self and practice through contemplative inquiry. "All that is moving is not you; it is that." "We are human. But what does it mean to be human? It is important to see what we are and what we are not." A speaker leads a satsang, questioning the identity of the practitioner within yoga and life. Using a stream-of-consciousness style, they contemplate the names of yoga postures, the elements composing the body, and phenomena like airplanes and light to point toward a transcendent Self. The talk oscillates between deconstructing the doer and advocating a yogic lifestyle, concluding with blessings for oneness and enjoyment. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

He emphasizes the spiritual path through a lengthy parable about a married couple whose 50-year resentment stems from miscommunication over sharing bread, illustrating how small, unspoken issues can define a life.

A discourse on the mythological story of Prahlāda and Narasiṁha, explaining the origins of the Holi festival. "There is a God, whether one believes or one doesn't believe. God incarnates, and there are two kinds of God's presence." "The story we are discussing is from several million years ago. Long ago, there was a king who went to the forest to perform austerities to realize God." The speaker narrates the tale of the demon king Hiraṇyakaśipu, who obtained a powerful boon and declared himself the only god. His son, Prahlāda, remained a devoted devotee of Lord Viṣṇu despite the king's violent attempts to kill him. The story details Prahlāda's miraculous survivals and culminates in the appearance of the Narasiṁha Avatāra from a pillar to kill the king at twilight, fulfilling the conditions of the boon. The discourse connects this to the celebration of Holi, marking the burning of the king's sister, Holikā. Filming location: USA

A spiritual lecture on the nāḍīs, cakras, and the foundational Mūlādhāra Cakra. "The Mūlādhāra Cakra is at the bottom of the spinal column. It is a border between animal and human consciousness." "Destiny was created first, and destiny is created individually. We should blame no one. We are ourselves responsible for our destiny." The speaker continues a discourse from the previous day, focusing on the Mūlādhāra Cakra as the seat of destiny (prārabdha) and divine energy. He explains how this foundational energy influences life and can be purified through the threefold practice of svādhyāya (self-study), manana (contemplation), and abhyāsa (persistent practice), which remove the obstacles of impurity, distraction, and veils. The talk connects these concepts to Kuṇḍalinī Śakti, the role of Kriyā Yoga, and concludes with a symbolic discussion of the tilak mark. Filming location: Umag, Croatia

"In this Kali Yuga, yoga is coming more and more to bring light and peace." "Mahāprabhujī said, 'A man should not drink tea and coffee. Coffee is bad for both male and female liver, and tea, for men, will make it difficult to have a child.'" Swami Vishwaguruji addresses a global audience, recounting the recent eight-month Anushthana at the Sattva ashram in Střílky. He discusses the ashram's holy history, the importance of satsang, and shares traditional teachings from Mahāprabhujī and his own Guru on diet, health, and disciplined living. He contrasts modern habits with a purer past, advocating for simple food, periodic fasting, and a return to family and home.

"In Ātmā, in the self, there are no dualities; there is only oneness. So where there is heaven and hell, there is life and death... that's what we want to come out of, to become one with the highest, with our Self." Swami Anand Arun delivers an extensive teaching, exploring the journey beyond dualities like life/death and divine/demonic energies.

But with this different energy inside, just try to be aware of this thing: in which way are we addressing other people?" "You get from an object only as much as you respect it... If your mālā has some value for you, you will keep it in a safe place... Because of that, you will, from your mālā, get energy when you need it." A speaker leads a satsang, emphasizing the profound impact of words, gestures, and intention. He discusses how language shapes reality, using examples from addressing others to serving food and respecting spiritual objects like a mala.
