Dreams are your reality
1:15 - 1:50 (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."

Go to satsang
2:30 - 2:58 (28 min)
The path of faith is proven through direct experience and sustained by satsaṅg. A master provides simple initial practices, like a mantra. This must be done with heart and soul to feel the connection and blessing. The first step of sincere practice opens the soul to the master's consciousness. Faith in the master's guidance is essential. External circumstances are not a measure of spiritual merit, as illustrated by a parable. Two neighbors received their wages; one spent his on worldly enjoyment in kusaṅg and found a gold coin. The other attended satsaṅg but broke his leg. A sage explained the one in kusaṅg was destined for a vast treasure but received only one coin due to his company. The one in satsaṅg was destined to be killed, but his karma was mitigated to a broken leg. Never compare fortunes or judge the path by temporary outcomes. Satsaṅg opens the heart center and unites the soul with the highest consciousness. The quickest way to God is through bhakti, devotion, growing with the innocence of a child. Unconditional love for the master automatically extends to all creation. When acting for the master, close your eyes and trust he is with you.
"When you say the mantra with heart and soul, you feel the love and blessing of the Master."
"Never look at what others have or do not have. Never compare."

The teaching of Bhajans
3:05 - 3:28 (23 min)
The devotee's longing for the Guru is a sweet pain that is ultimately good. A feeling of absence creates an ache in the heart, yet this very pain is a sign of devotion. The love for the Guru is so sweet that one willingly accepts its inherent difficulties. A prayer describes the Guru as the source of all happiness and the remover of all sufferings. The only hope lies in complete surrender to the Guru. One must inwardly give up all obstacles to this devotion. The path requires steady practice, prayer, and unwavering confidence.
"As much as it is painful, it is that good."
"Do not hurry and do not worry. Practice, practice, practice."

We are never old for yoga
3:35 - 3:48 (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."

Bhajan singing from Jadan Ashram
7:20 - 8:06 (46 min)
The yogi's sleep is a state of yogic consciousness where wakefulness is known within sleep, and day is known within night. It is a sleep without support, upon a white stone slab. In that sleep, one knows the day within the night. It is a sleep of knowledge, leading to the state of Nirvana. Through this practice, one meets the Supreme Person. The true form is revealed when one meets that Person. The guru's assembly reveals the true knowledge. The body is without a country; the divine person is wondrous. One who worships in this way is absorbed in the guru.
"Us nindrāme jagratā jāne, punirātri me divasu jñānī hai."

What are we thinking about our being?
10:30 - 11:46 (76 min)
The soul is the sovereign ruler of the inner kingdom, the body.
We are sinking in thoughts born from desire. Life grows shorter while we focus on the body. The soul ascends and descends, drawn to experience the world. In the womb, the soul is imprisoned, destined to become an individual. Upon birth, we are a separate Self. We possess the five elements: earth, water, air, fire, and space. Within them resides the soul. You are not alone; you contain a whole universe. The soul is the president, the highest authority. The senses and organs of action are the prime minister and the public, the ten powers that govern the kingdom. Do not become their slave; let them work. You are the king of your body. Your soul is your Guru, the highest Self. All humans possess the same soul, yet we create dualities and suffer. This body is a great instrument. Practice yoga—physical exercises, breath, concentration—to care for it and achieve oneness. Be humble, kind, and helpful. Never think you are unhappy, lost, or have nothing. You are the light of God.
"Your soul is your Guru. Yes. You all will become Gurus when you achieve what I am telling."
"You are the king of your body. And indriyas are your people. Do not become the slave of them. But let them work."

New Moon Ceremonies
16:40 - 17:30 (50 min)
The new moon day carries great blessings and is a symbol of Śiva's darśana. Observing the twelve crescent moons grants a siddhi. Śiva, the creator of yoga, manifests in all elements. Greet Śiva upon waking to clear daily obstacles. The five elements are vital, with the sun and moon represented within as Iḍā and Piṅgalā in Svara Yoga. This science of breath instructs one's actions. Yoga is a complete science of body, mind, and soul. Eating is a sacred ceremony, a sādhanā where food is offered to Brahman. Maintain silence while eating. To fulfill wishes, one must offer something in return; nothing is free. Respect food by praying and offering a portion first. Perform daily sādhanā with discipline, such as offering water to a plant at sunrise. Making a vow, like abstaining from a fruit, tests willpower. Inner beauty of heart and behavior is true beauty.
"To see the new moon carries a great blessing. If one can see the twelve crescent moons, one will attain a siddhi."
"Yoga is a science of body, mind, soul, and our ātmā. It must not be that you do only physical yoga exercises; there are many, many other techniques."

A Prayer for the Immortal Soul
18:05 - 18:47 (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."

Be positive
18:55 - 20:05 (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.

Satsang Is Divine
20:10 - 20:49 (39 min)
The supreme door is entered through satsaṅg, the highest and easiest spiritual path. Real renunciation is of desires, not material things. Satsaṅg with pure feeling destroys countless sins. The mind creates delusion and fear about this path. One example is a cave where a voice warns not to take anything, yet both taking and not taking lead to regret. A student who takes soil finds diamonds, representing the unexpected gain from connection. Another example is of thieves whose father warns them to avoid satsaṅg. One thief hears a single phrase during satsaṅg: "Devotees are not the shadow of the deities." This word later allows him to see through a false goddess and save his life. From one word of truth, salvation is possible. Satsaṅg is a divine blessing.
"To reach the court of that God, there is only one way: the way of renunciation."
"Devotees are not the shadow of the deities."

The Birthday of Sri Hanumanji
20:55 - 22:07 (72 min)
Proper nourishment for the physical body is essential, yet we must be mindful of what we consume. The strong temptation for sweet, sugary foods is an addiction that harms health. Quitting prepared sugars leads to better digestion, weight loss, and improved liver function. Initial withdrawal symptoms like headaches pass, revealing the natural sweetness in whole grains and vegetables. A healthy body supports clearer awareness and a better feeling overall. Reducing sugar also helps control parasites in the body that thrive on it.

Meditation is the key
22:15 - 23:14 (59 min)
Wellness is the harmonious balance of body, mind, and soul. Vāstu Śāstra aligns our environment with cosmic energy for harmony. Our being is composed of five layers, or kośas: the physical body of nourishment, the energy body, the mental body, the intellectual body, and the bliss body. The mind is a reflection of immense speed and power that cannot be controlled or killed; desire persists from cradle to grave. Yoga is the scientific practice to awaken awareness and achieve this balance. It requires daily morning practice in a small space with fresh air. Sound and vibration are foundational; our body is created from cosmic resonance. Specific sounds like "A," "U," and "M" correspond to energy centers, or chakras, and can release tension, heal glands like the thyroid, and purify the nervous system. Chanting "OM" integrates the five bodies and clears stress by directing vibration to the brain.
"Your mind cannot be killed because your desire is still there."

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."
