The Science of Kriyā Yoga
0:20 - 1:00 (40 min)
Recorded on
Kriyā Yoga is the science of movement, purification, and attaining divine light. Yoga is the harmonizing science for body, mind, and soul, given by Swayambhū Śiva. The human birth holds a unique potential, but it is threatened by the inner crocodiles of desire, anger, and ego. These negative forces are a consuming fire. One must awaken into the light of kindness, knowledge, and love for all. Humans often become their own enemies through jealousy, hatred, and greed, forgetting their dharma. Yoga is a complete way of life leading to salvation. Kriyā means action and movement, inherent in the expanding universe, the changing stars, and the rotating earth. This perpetual motion exists within the human body through breath, circulation, and thought. Kriyā Yoga is the practice of balancing these inner energies to purify consciousness. Specific Kriyās, like Ujjāyī Prāṇāyāma or Agnisāra, maintain health and awareness. Even digestion and sleep are Kriyās. Consistent practice purifies karma and elevates consciousness toward light; neglecting it causes a rapid decline. This path requires discipline and grace. "Within you is the ocean of immortality. Within you is the fountain of joy, and within you is the immortal soul." "Kriyā Yoga is the highest technique within yoga. But with that, you have to have a blessing."

How do we practice Bhramari?
1:05 - 1:24 (19 min)
Recorded on
The practice of breath and Brahmari requires consistent, moderate daily effort, not excessive exertion. Specific techniques exist, analogous to a balanced meal with various components. The practice involves three primary focal points: the heart, the navel, and the breath itself. One must learn to inhale and exhale properly through the nostrils, cleaning them as needed. The Brahmari technique follows these points and involves working with the breath's subtleties. Practice it briefly, for about five minutes, twice daily. Do not extend Brahmari for too long. The correct method uses the nostrils, with the lips closed and the mouth slightly open. This disciplined practice, done correctly, yields benefit. "You must practice every day." "We should take our breath in and out with both nostrils." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

This tree is a symbol of peace and life. It stands as a mother and father, enduring all conditions. We seek peace, yet the world is filled with hatred and anger. The power lies in forgiveness and understanding. This tree represents nonviolence, which is deeply needed. Peace originates from our hearts and from Mother Nature. The mantras chanted here provide safety and energy to all living beings. Positive wishes for health and peace made here will be fulfilled, but negative wishes will not. This location was waiting for this tree, which now acts as a center. "This tree stands here for us, as everyone has said, for peace." "Peace and ahimsā, and peace comes from our hearts, or from Mother Nature." Filming location: Austria

The spine's structure, function, and care through yoga are examined. The spine consists of 24 vertebrae forming the axial skeleton, protecting the spinal cord. Muscles and ligaments support posture and movement. Pain arises from acute strain or chronic issues like poor alignment and disc damage. Daily postures, such as prolonged sitting, create imbalance and excessive load, particularly on the lower lumbar vertebrae. Proper biomechanics and the hydraulic function of intervertebral discs are crucial for distributing force. A brief daily yoga practice can alleviate these issues. Gentle stretching, twisting, and strengthening āsanas, performed with awareness, relieve tension, mobilize the spine, and improve overall energy. Consistency in a short morning routine yields significant benefit. "The spinal cord is the main highway in our body for nerve signals." "Chronic pains are more complex. They last for months or even years." Filming location: Slovenia
Introduction to Bhramari Pranayama
2:50 - 3:45 (55 min)
Recorded on
The human body is a microcosm of the universe, and specific practices can harmonize it. Attachment to the true Guru is the sole devotion that pleases the mind, for without understanding, the soul suffers. The priceless human form is meant for realization, where belief destroys the cycles of birth and death. The practice of Brahmarī Prāṇāyāma uses sound vibration to balance the brain's hemispheres. This yogic discipline is beyond mere exercise; it integrates the whole being. When perfected, this vibration purifies speech, enhances learning, and aligns the individual with the cosmic body. Mastery requires consistent practice to feel the equal resonance throughout the entire system. "Attachment is only to the Satguru, attachment is only to the Satguru." "Believe, and birth and death are destroyed." Filming location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India

7:10 - 7:37 (27 min)
Recorded on
The human birth is a rare and urgent opportunity. The scriptures and all aspects of existence point to a single imperative. The sole necessity is to fix the mind upon the Guru's name. This precious human form is exceedingly difficult to obtain again. One must become truly human in this very moment. By being steadfast in this practice, the vision of the true Self is attained. Do not waste this fleeting chance. "Oh lamp of qualities, Hari, fix your mind on the Guru’s name. This opportunity will not come again; be human." "This is the totality of knowledge: to be human."

Bhajan singing in the presence of the Master
7:45 - 8:32 (47 min)
Recorded on
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.'" Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Recorded on
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." "Without the guru, you cannot understand this." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Pyare darashana diyo aj
9:30 - 9:33 (3 min)
Recorded on
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. "Be rakhalnī chokhā, Kalnī chokhā, Darśan na dī chokhā." "Darśan sannakā nindā, Nairin divasannā, Bhukkanī kāso kattatannā."

Everything is created by sound
11:10 - 12:12 (62 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is the union and harmonization of body, mind, and spirit. The ancient wisdom of the Vedas reveals that creation emerged from divine sound, the primal resonance of Aum. This sound manifests as light and then as the entire cosmos, including the human form. The body is a perfect creation, engineered with intricate systems and controlled through energy centers known as chakras. Each chakra, symbolized as a lotus, contains specific resonances and seed mantras that govern its function. The ultimate reality is the formless, eternal Brahman, which resides within all beings. Self-realization is the process of understanding one's own body, mind, and emotions, leading to the awareness of this inner divinity. True yoga practice cultivates non-violence, peace, and health in daily life, balancing one's being and actions to avoid causing harm, as every action returns like a boomerang. "The Sanskrit alphabet is called Devanāgarī. Deva is God, and Nagarī means a citizen—a citizen of the divine world." "Yoga means uniting, balancing, and harmonizing body, mind, and intellect."

Day of happiness
12:20 - 13:10 (50 min)
Recorded on
The festival of Deepavali celebrates the return of Rāma, symbolizing the light of welcome and the joy of reunion. True happiness is found in the return of a long-absent loved one, where real love and devotion grow stronger daily if nurtured. All divine incarnations and holy beings face great difficulties in their service. Human emotions like greed and anger, when they enter awareness, lead to wrong actions and can corrupt relationships. The story of Rāma’s exile illustrates this. King Daśaratha, bound by a past promise to his queen Kaikeyī, was compelled to exile his eldest son Rāma for fourteen years and install Kaikeyī’s son as king instead. Rāma, his wife Sītā, and his brother Lakṣmaṇa accepted this decree with equanimity. Rāma expressed happiness in relieving his father’s vow, fulfilling his mother’s wish, and gaining the opportunity for spiritual learning in the forest. Upon Rāma’s eventual return, the people of Ayodhyā lit countless oil lamps to guide his path, creating the Festival of Lights. This tradition continues, though the focus has also shifted to worshipping Lakṣmī for prosperity. "Rāma said, 'I am the happiest person in this world today.'" "People were celebrating, all so happy. So they put the lamps on the path." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Specific Kriyās, like Ujjāyī Prāṇāyāma or Agnisāra, maintain health and awareness. Even digestion and sleep are Kriyās. Consistent practice purifies karma and elevates consciousness toward light; neglecting it causes a rapid decline. This path requires discipline and grace. "Within you is the ocean of immortality. Within you is the fountain of joy, and within you is the immortal soul." "Kriyā Yoga is the highest technique within yoga. But with that, you have to have a blessing."

The Journey of the Soul: From the Ocean to the Drop
14:00 - 14:54 (54 min)
Recorded on
The soul's journey is from separation from the divine source back to union with it. The individual soul, or jīva, originates from the supreme oneness, like a water droplet separating from the ocean through evaporation. This droplet then longs to return. The cycle of the soul mirrors the water cycle: it ascends, travels, and descends back to earth, entering vegetation and bodies. Satsang is the boat to cross the ocean of separation, guided by the Guru or the holy scripture, which embodies the Guru's presence. Constant repetition of the divine name, like "Ram," is a highway to that goal. However, our physical actions create karma. We poison the earth and water with chemicals from soaps, cosmetics, and medicines, which is violence against nature and ourselves. True spirituality requires internal purity and non-violence in all conduct, as everything is counted. Liberation comes from realizing you cannot hide your actions from yourself or the divine. "From the ocean, the jīva is in the water, the soul is in the water." "This drop is called Jīva. And when this drop falls into the ocean, the Jīva becomes the Ātmā." Filming location: London, UK

Explanation of Shank Prakshalan kriya
16:15 - 16:52 (37 min)
Recorded on
Haṭha Yoga practices purify the body and awaken energy to support all spiritual paths. Aspirants seek happiness and health, finding a primary yoga path according to their nature—Karma, Bhakti, Rāja, or Jñāna—yet all paths are interconnected. A strong, healthy body is essential, cultivated through Haṭha Yoga's cleansing techniques. These include Neti for the head, Nauli and Agnisāra Kriyā for digestive fire, and Kapālabhāti to awaken the brain. Śaṅkha Prakṣālana is a profound intestinal cleanse using warm salt water and specific movements, requiring proper guidance. It purifies the entire system, leading to lightness and improved digestion. Following the cleanse, one eats simple, sāttvic food like kicharī to restore the body. This practical work on health supports a life of service and spiritual practice. "Without Bhakti, we cannot do Karma Yoga. Without Jñāna Yoga, you can’t do Bhakti Yoga." "Śaṅkha Prakṣālana is not only the emptying of the whole intestine; it is a purifying, a washing only with that which we have from nature: water and sea salt and movement."

This temple is a sacred cave of diamonds, a center of divine energy for meditation and Vedic culture. Its establishment required great effort over time, facing obstacles as all good works do. This Vedic culture transforms individual impressions into human character, guiding one to a good path. Most people pass by such places unaware, but those who enter receive the diamonds of wisdom and reality. Modern education provides knowledge for worldly life, yet the essential knowledge to become truly human comes from parents imbued with Vedic tradition. This eternal tradition is never destroyed, though many have forgotten it. Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness, a union of the individual with the infinite. "This mandir, this temple, Vedic and Vedic culture, we have lost." "Yoga is a science of body, mind, and consciousness. That’s all." Filming location: Atlanta, Georgia, USA

Become one with the energy of Bhagawan
20:20 - 20:53 (33 min)
Recorded on
The spiritual pilgrimage is a rare achievement of the soul, likened to a fruit surviving from blossom to harvest. Ancient pilgrims endured immense hardship with singular focus on the divine. Modern ease can invite disrespect, as seen when indulgence at a holy site provoked a destructive natural response. This place demands purity; most who come are purifying their karma. India is a unique spiritual source, like a diamond mine, where all gods are worshipped as one without conflict. Divine incarnations themselves endured great troubles. Human life is for dispassion, not attachment. When divine light awakens, consciousness expands to perceive the unity in all. "Of course, the whole earth is a Bhārat Mātā, and all countries have their Mātā, mother. But only India can be called Bhārat Mātā." "Without vairāgya, you cannot renounce. And without renouncing, you are in attachment." Filming location: Badrinath, Himalaya, India
Be the tool
21:00 - 21:44 (44 min)
Recorded on
The spiritual path requires surrendering the ego's claim of being the doer to become a tool of divine grace. A dog pulling a chariot mistakenly believes it carries the entire load itself. Similarly, Hanuman once thought his great deeds were his own doing. Rama then sent him on a difficult journey to deliver a ring to a sage. The sage threw the ring into a vessel filled with identical rings from every divine incarnation, revealing that countless servants have come before. The practitioner must pray to be an instrument, allowing divine energy to flow through selfless service. All actions, like leading a yoga class, become energized when performed with the attitude of "I am not the doer." Spiritual work must be done invisibly, without seeking recognition, as showing off one's fasting or prayers feeds the ego. The guru's guidance acts as medicine that may stir up inner impurities, which is necessary for purification. Life is like entering a cold, testing ground; the aim is to emerge with one's inner purity intact. By focusing on personal cleansing through practice, one naturally illuminates the surroundings. "Only what is important for us is to understand and to pray to be the tool." "Always be aware of Hanumānjī when he realized that a lot, and so many, was before him and so much will be after him, and only pray for grace, for great luck, to get the opportunity to be the tool."

Purify yourself inside and out

Evening Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Satguru is a Guru who knows everything and gives knowledge to everyone. The words of Satguru Chalisa are like pearls coming from the haven. God's energy is pure and goes to everyone. We can do neti every morning to clean our nose and lungs also. It is better to clean our teeth with our fingers without a brush. Sometimes animals are also cleaning their teeth. Many diseases begin to develop from the tension which can be between husband and wife. We learn the movements of animals with the help of yoga.
The Incarnation of Holy Guruji
22:40 - 23:29 (49 min)
Recorded on
The incarnation day of the Satguru is observed. A saint's life bears extraordinary signs, like the infant Krishna revealing the universe. There are two kinds of incarnations: those for a special purpose and those who bless the earth daily through their presence and words. The Guru's bhajans are the resonance of divine knowledge, their words like jewels that go directly into the heart. These compositions are the words of the Vedas, made comprehensible. The Guru and his own Guru are one in the transmission of this knowledge. True discipleship means becoming an instrument, with the divine writing through the devotee. This oneness is the essence of spiritual realization. The Guru's life was a continuous blessing and a series of tests, demonstrating that the master provides all necessities. True spiritual wealth is internal, not in external robes. "The bhajans we are singing are the words of the Vedas." "To put orange robes on your body is not to be a real sannyāsī. You have to live life as a sannyāsī." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Blessing for Martin
23:35 - 0:02 (27 min)
Recorded on
This gathering celebrates the opening of a divine āśram and the shared work of the past year. A story is told of a miraculous cave where a voice warns that taking something leads to regret, yet taking nothing leads to greater regret. This mirrors the opportunity within a project; some participate more, some less, but all contribution is appreciated. The work has created a center of spiritual light where visitors may find peace and understanding. Yoga is a science for healthy, happy, spiritual living, leading toward self-realization through lifelong willpower. It is embraced globally for physical, mental, and social health, serving as a path to the Supreme. All religious paths ultimately converge at one gate. The practice is essential, for everything is nothing without health. The roots of this teaching are ancient and must be preserved, just as a tree dies if its roots are cut. Teach with compassion, never forcing postures, but understanding each person's condition. Share the wisdom gained, just as a cherry tree returns a thrown stone with fruit. "Yoga is a science of the human being. Yoga is very ancient, and it is given to humans to lead a healthy, happy, spiritual life." "Health is not everything, but everything is nothing without health."
