Be positive
0:40 - 1:50 (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.

The Birthday of Sri Hanumanji
2:50 - 4:02 (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.

Bhajan singing in the presence of the Master
6:30 - 7:17 (47 min)
The sacred syllable Om is the primal vibration from which this three-qualitied illusion of the world is projected. From Om, all knowledge and the Vedas themselves emerged. The true knower, realizing this, finds bliss. The Guru's grace is essential for this realization. Without the Guru's guidance, one remains lost, not knowing what to do with worldly or spiritual wealth. The Guru's feet are the ultimate pilgrimage, praised by the Vedas and Purāṇas. The divine sound, Śabda, is the ultimate power; it does not kill but slays limitation. Through the Guru's arrival at the eternal door, the soul finds liberation.
"From Om, the three-qualitied Maya created this world."
"The Vedas and Purāṇas sing, 'Guru’s feet are the sacred pilgrimage.'"

Guru bhakta jagata me na rahe
7:25 - 8:08 (43 min)
The divine reality is one, formless, and present everywhere within all beings.
Rāma, meaning God or the Guru, lives in every heart. Inside and outside are the same vast oneness. The whole world resides within you. This reality is not born and does not die. It is completely fearless. It has no color, shape, or boundaries. It is indescribable and beyond name. Without the Guru, one cannot understand this truth. The devotee who realizes this has nothing to fear from the world.
"Looking up or looking down, I only have your darśan, and there is no need to go anywhere."

Pyare darashana diyo aj
8:15 - 8:18 (3 min)
The heart's agitation arises from separation and unfulfilled longing. This state is described as a profound inner turmoil. The eyes of the devotee, represented as the eyes of the cowherd and of the divine, do not grant the vision being sought. This absence of divine sight leads to restless days and sleepless nights. The longing itself becomes a form of sustenance, yet it cuts like a blade. The experience is one of yearning for a connection that feels withheld. The fragment captures the essence of devotional anguish.

10:35 - 10:58 (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."

Practicing of the system 'Yoga in Daily Life', Level 2 - Part 1
15:00 - 16:03 (63 min)
The practice advances to the second level of āsanas and prāṇāyāma. Level two introduces seventeen postures, beginning and ending on the floor with standing poses in between. This level engages the real practice of āsana. Each posture follows a sequence: start from a position of concentration, move into the form, then either hold with normal breath or return. The effect is felt upon returning. Practice begins with OṂ, breathing, and relaxation. Full yoga breath combines abdominal, thoracic, and clavicular parts into a wave. Movement is then added to this breath. Āsanas include Śaśāṅkāsana, Meru Ākaraṇa Āsana, Bhūnamanā Āsana, Aśva Sanchalāsana, Utthāna Prastha Āsana, and standing poses like Hasta Uttānāsana and Akaraṇa Dhanur Āsana. Each has specific benefits and some contraindications. Practice concludes with systematic relaxation, alternate-nostril prāṇāyāma to balance energy and brain hemispheres, and OṂ chanting.
"Every āsana has its starting position, in which you concentrate on the movement and the āsana you will perform."
"The breathing can guide you very deep inside towards your inner self."

Satsang Is Divine
16:10 - 16:49 (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."

Meditation is the key
16:55 - 17:54 (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."
"Yoga is a science of body, mind, and soul."

Practice the sounds diligently.
"Not by work, not by your people, nor by wealth. But by renunciation alone you attain immortality."
"That immortality, beyond heaven, shining within the heart, is attained by the self-controlled."

Hanuman Chalisa is for everyone
19:20 - 20:08 (48 min)
The Hanumān Chālīsā is a universal spiritual text. It consists of forty poems glorifying Hanuman, composed by the saint Tulsīdās from his realization. This chant is for everyone, transcending religion, as spiritual truth is one. Its power has been observed; playing it for cows brought relaxation and increased milk yield, demonstrating healing through sound resonance. The mantra's vibration can dispel illness, promoting peace and health. Hanuman remains on earth by Rāma's command to protect devotees. Animals possess great knowledge and loyalty, as seen in langurs that refuse to eat the Sītā Phal fruit out of respect. They are family members, and their destruction imbalances the world. Spiritual awareness, found in texts like the Chālīsā, uplifts and liberates consciousness, removing fear. The poem begins by adoring the guru's lotus feet, the source of prosperity and wisdom. True greatness, like Tulsīdās's, does not proclaim itself. Hanuman symbolizes pure, fearless strength and intellect, never used for negativity, and is invoked for removing troubles.
"It is not only for Hindus, but for anyone who wishes to receive its benefit."
"Every spiritual word, every spiritual sentence is uplifting, inspiring, liberating, and removes the fear."

Gurudeva hi Kevalam
20:15 - 21:10 (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."

Don't sleep in a dream of ignorance
21:15 - 22:02 (47 min)
Awaken to life's true purpose before the train of time departs.
Life is given according to destiny and karma, not age. The moment of departure is unknown. One must become alert and conscious to board the train; it will not wait. All worldly attachments—family, possessions, country—are left behind. Nothing material accompanies you. The purpose is the awakening of consciousness into God-realization. Practice the techniques given by the wise; otherwise, this chance is lost. Attachment is a noose causing suffering and conflict. Detachment is not neglect but love without suffering, granting freedom. After death, you face the consequences of your karma in compartments of heaven or hell, falling into a directionless nothingness. Yet, human life is beautiful and meant to be enjoyed. You came alone and will depart alone. Achieve the liberation of self-realization through spiritual practice.
"Chetan ho jaare musā, phir gaḍī ānewalī hai. Gaḍī ānewalī hai, gaḍī jānewalī hai."

New Moon Ceremonies
22:10 - 23:00 (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."

Go to satsang
23:05 - 23:33 (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."
