A Prayer for the Immortal Soul
0:45 - 1:27 (42 min)
Destiny is a mysterious and inescapable force. Humans cannot know the past or future, for such knowledge would bring unbearable tension. What unfolds is a play of fate, created individually yet often unavoidable. The story of Oedipus illustrates how one may try to flee destiny only to fulfill it. All must face the end of the body; death is inevitable. Yet through spiritual practice, one can transcend fear and attachment. When consciousness widens, past and future become clear, and one may realize the supreme Self beyond all suffering. Even the enlightened must relinquish the body, but a self-realized being digests time itself. We pray for the departed soul to dissolve into the cosmic light.
"Humans are very intelligent and intellectual beings, but God has not given them this one ability: to know the past and to know the future."
"Finally, the car will be the winner. It means death."

We are never old for yoga
1:37 - 1:50 (13 min)
This weekend provided a spiritual vaccination against the subtle influences of Kali Yuga. The age's decay enters through small compromises, like a mouse, creating spiritual inflation. We must learn to firmly say no to ourselves, for the gentle approach of this era ends with us caught unaware. A yogi, like aged ghee, improves with time; one is never too old for sādhana. This injection strengthens our immunity, but ongoing practice is essential. We must carry this light home and arrive at the coming opening in a state of spiritual readiness, not merely physical. Our perspective on food, practice, and community must grasp the deeper principle of non-harm.
"To know how to say 'No' to ourselves."
"We are never too old for our sādhana."

The Path of Yoga for Universal Peace
2:15 - 2:38 (23 min)
Yoga is the universal manual for achieving peace. It is far more than physical flexibility; it is the interconnection of body, mind, and spirit, extending from the individual to all humanity and nature. Lasting peace has not been found through material wealth or political philosophies alone. Yoga, founded on non-violence, provides the path. It is a way of life that harmonizes all faiths by directing one inward to know the self. Transforming the world begins with transforming oneself. This practice requires no money and can be started immediately. By investing in yoga education and making personal practice a priority, individuals become ambassadors of peace. The collective action of many yogis can change the world.
"Yoga is the only practice that gives peace to everyone without harm, judgment, or discrimination."
"To fix the world, you must fix your mind."

Dreams are your reality
2:45 - 3:20 (35 min)
Dreams reveal your inner reality. The Supreme, though unseen, dwells within your heart as a spark of light. Realizing this requires cultivating spiritual qualities like truth and humility while denying negativity. Your present thoughts are seeds determining future experiences across lives. What you call reality is as fleeting as a dream, a play of consciousness. Relationships shape your inner peace; hidden emotional blockages possess immense power. A harmonious partnership is a merging of souls for life's journey. Waking life and dream experiences are both layers of your conscious reality.
"Your hidden power has immense energy, and that can move everything."
"Therefore, on this planet, there is no reality. We will come and we will go, and we will experience our own reality. And that’s called a dream."

Bhajan evening from Vienna 2
6:30 - 7:24 (54 min)
Surrender to the divine master is the path to liberation.
The highest god is the ruler of all and resides within every cell. The true guru is ever-present, as the scriptures confirm. Those who surrender live without fear and attain the highest happiness. Constant repetition of the divine name allows one to cross the ocean of worldly existence. This world is a temporary play of coming and going; no worldly relation or possession aids the soul at death. Therefore, one must place one's entire life, success, and abilities into the hands of the immortal beloved. The final goal is liberation and eternal union with God.

It is praised as victorious and glorious. Worldly fears cannot touch one engaged in true satsaṅg. It is likened to the fragrance of sandalwood that permeates all it touches. This gathering is the essential means for realizing the divine presence within.

Yoga Is In Our Destiny
13:50 - 14:54 (64 min)
Yoga is unity, the realization of oneness. The practice harmonizes body, mind, and soul, but its true aim is the individual soul merging with the universal soul. We exist as separate individuals due to ignorance, fluttering through lifetimes. Reality is what is unchanging—the Ātmā, the supreme truth. The changing body and world are not this ultimate reality. A yogī is one who removes the duality between the individual and universal soul, achieving union. This is self-realization. Human life is a chance for this merger. Our duty, our human dharma, is to realize this oneness through spiritual practice, serving others with mercy, and seeing the divine light in all creatures. Do not divide by race or religion. Love means wishing happiness for all. Your spiritual progress is in your hands. This life is a journey toward that final unity.

Be positive
19:00 - 20:10 (70 min)
The choice between positivity and negativity is a fundamental spiritual decision. One must not judge others without knowing the full story, as appearances are deceptive. The people and atmosphere one chooses directly shape the mind's development. Ultimately, the path is a personal choice. There are four types of grace: divine grace, the grace of parents and teachers, the supreme grace of the Guru, and one's own grace. The Guru shows the path but does not force the disciple; one's own effort is crucial. Cultivate gratitude for what you have, as craving more leads to misery, exemplified by the farmer who became unhappy after finding 99 coins. Do not seek faults in others, for that draws their negativity onto oneself. Negativity is often more alluring, but positive association is essential for growth. Even animals sense intention, as when a saint's negative thought drove swans away. Use discrimination to choose the positive path. Spiritual progress depends on personal choice, Guru's grace, and righteous living.

Each persons body is like the temple of God
20:15 - 21:10 (55 min)
The divine atmosphere is realized through Guru Bhakti. This gathering evokes the sensation of a divine realm on earth, akin to descriptions of Brahmaloka. The lineage's bhajans and teachings illuminate this perception. The physical location is sanctified, with every individual considered a temple of God through daily spiritual practice. The Yoga in Daily Life system is a comprehensive science for global welfare, designed to develop divine consciousness and harmony. Each letter of its name holds a profound meaning related to life's goal. The path requires a true Satguru, as exemplified by Śaṅkarācārya, who despite his knowledge sought a guru's guidance. The guru is the essential boat to cross the ocean of worldly existence. A guru's presence alone transmits blessing and energy, resolving all obstacles through devotion.
"With Guru Bhakti, all obstacles in our lives go away, because that’s the highest Bhakti."
"The guru is the boat which helps us cross from this side of the ocean to the other side."

Singing Yoga nidra bhajan. If we only sleep during yoga nidra we don't get anything. The story of a man who beat the snake with a stick in the sand. Animals also have their path and they follow it. They also have their struggles with each other. Our like is like a thorny bush with sweet fruits in it. What do we choose the ice cream or the stick? Bhajan singing.
Make a path through the forest
22:25 - 23:16 (51 min)
Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from weekend Yoga Seminar in Nadlac, Romania. Prana is stronger than the physical body. There are always problems in daily life. Partners are together for a period of time then conflicts arise - that is similar to spiritual life. We need a clear path, a sattvic (pure) life, and have to make this path through the forest. Just reading does not help us. We should change ourself inside, otherwise, time is lost. The realisation of Atma Gyana (Self-knowledge) takes more time.
Gurudeva hi Kevalam
23:20 - 0:15 (55 min)
The mind creates complex knots that only the Guru's grace can easily untie.
Human nature is drawn to negativity and overthinking, which tightens our mental knots of sadness and confusion. These difficulties come and go. We often remember the Guru only when troubled, yet constant remembrance is needed. The Guru assigns karma yoga to quiet the restless mind and remove inner obstacles. Attempting to solve our own problems often worsens them. True solution comes from surrendering the knot to the Guru, who finds the simple loop to release it. Faith in the Guru's guidance transforms seemingly complicated situations.
"A coin has two sides. We might see one side and not see the other side."
"In the same way, our sadness or the thoughts, the negative thoughts in our mind, are a simple knot. But our mind tries to untangle it, to overthink it, and just makes the situation even worse."
