World Peace is in Our Hands
1:00 - 1:05 (5 min)
Recorded on
World peace is in our hands. Our world is increasingly turbulent and ambiguous, requiring more than linear answers. We must create resilient societies focused on shared peace and well-being. A world without peace, equitable wealth distribution, and planetary care will not survive. Achieving these goals requires every individual to become a responsible, active global citizen. My country is designing a new societal vision with its citizens, integrating this into our strategic development. We are committed to being a responsible global actor by implementing the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. This includes striving for poverty eradication, gender equality, human rights, and environmental protection at all levels. Peace requires good intentions, cooperation, and inner balance. The best way to achieve that inner coherence is through yoga. Ultimately, our collective action determines our future. "A world without peace will not survive. A world without distributing wealth will not survive." "I think we all know the answer: yoga is the answer." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic
Yoga, Health, and Peace: A Medical Perspective
1:10 - 1:22 (12 min)
Recorded on
True health requires integrating physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being, which modern life disrupts. Our unnatural lifestyle causes chronic stress, damaging our organs and leading to widespread disease. Yoga is a holistic, evidence-based system addressing this. It works on three levels: conscious practices like meditation influence the cortex; prāṇāyāma calms the subcortical autonomic nervous system; and āsanas affect the peripheral organs. This integrated approach combats key modern ailments. Memory loss and dementia are epidemics, worsened by our reliance on technology and poor diet. Yoga, along with a vegetarian diet rich in healthy spices, is scientifically shown to preserve memory and prevent cognitive decline. Similarly, yoga techniques are proven to alleviate and prevent depression by fostering present-moment awareness. By restoring balance across all levels of our being, yoga guides us toward self-realization. Understanding our connection to others allows us to live in peace. "All these diseases are actually caused by an overload of stress." "Yoga techniques influence us on all levels: physical, mental, social, and spiritual." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

1:30 - 2:03 (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

Everyday practising is important
4:00 - 4:21 (21 min)
Recorded on
Spiritual progress requires consistent daily practice, not occasional effort. The journey demands integrating discipline into ordinary life, balancing responsibilities while maintaining steady effort. Merely visiting an ashram once a year is insufficient; one must practice at home, morning and evening. Proficiency develops over years, like a child learning gradually. Just as a pilot must operate an aircraft regularly to maintain skill, so must one engage in spiritual practice diligently. This is our life, and everything in it matters. The work continues wherever you go. "Because, well, if not today, then perhaps tomorrow—like this." "If you cannot practice daily and only come once a year, then you are not on the journey."

Introduction to Bhramari Pranayama
4:25 - 5:20 (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
Bhajans for World Peace (2/3)
5:30 - 6:36 (66 min)
Recorded on
Seek refuge in the Guru to cross the ocean of worldly existence and attain liberation. You are trapped in the cycle of birth and death, where all possessions and relationships are ultimately left behind. The Guru is the means to cross this ocean, destroying inner enemies like desire and anger. By taking shelter and consciously repeating the divine name, one can be freed from ignorance. The goal is a transcendent state beyond birth, death, and karma, described as indescribable light and eternity. This state is sought through complete surrender, offering all aspects of life—success, defeat, work, and love—into divine hands. The aim is to live in the world yet remain pure, with the single task of reaching the divine. "O Gurudev, you are the means of crossing the ocean of worldliness." "Oh Lord, I offer all my work and all my mistakes into your hands." Filming location: Austria
Bhajans for World Peace (3/3)
6:40 - 7:55 (75 min)
Recorded on
Devotion to the Guru is the sole refuge from worldly suffering. No earthly relation can offer salvation from the ocean of illusion. The mind is blind and the heart's austerity falters without grace. Surrender completely, seeking not worldly boons but unwavering devotion itself. Only the Guru's mercy can guide the soul to the shore and reveal the supreme happiness found at the holy feet. All else is transient; the Guru's name is the true path. "The loyalty and devotion to you, Guru Deva. When this exists, all worries go away." "Please... bless me with devotion—not with good things—and protect me from my blind mind." Filming location: Austria

The spiritual family
8:35 - 9:26 (51 min)
Recorded on
The quality of our era is determined by our inner state. While some lament this age, it offers unique tools like rapid travel and distant connection. The key is to extract only the nourishing essence from the vast information, like the swan separating milk from water. Our experience of time depends on our inner qualities. This gathering is a timeout to calm our inner dialogue, not to escape life but to gain clarity before re-engaging. We require the support of our spiritual family for strength. Utilize this time for serious practice, particularly prāṇāyāma to settle the agitated mind and prāṇa. Calm the body through deliberate movement to quiet mental disturbances. Simplify your environment and focus intently, avoiding distractions like constant drinking which disrupts inner fire and focus. Move from mere belief to direct understanding. "Take the pearls, take the milk, and leave the water." "Our meditation and practice are not about running away but about taking a timeout before returning to the game." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
The Incarnation of Holy Guruji
9:30 - 10:19 (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
Day of happiness
10:25 - 11:15 (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

Be the tool
12:15 - 12:59 (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."

Mantra for harmony
13:05 - 13:53 (48 min)
Recorded on
Mantra is the power of mind and speech, rooted in the word 'man' for mind. Fear is a dominant power residing permanently within us from childhood, extending to learning, work, and relationships. This fear can be invoked by a single word, a 'mantra' of threat. Speech holds immense power; a wife's words can keep a husband awake, just as a husband's words can affect his wife. There is a difference in the qualities of expression between men and women. The essence of true mantra is found in positive, respectful, and harmonious communication that carries spiritual power, like a sacred poem. A guru's grace is essential for real spiritual liberation, not self-proclaimed attainment. All beings, even divine figures, have a guide. Mantra can be used for good or ill, so we must choose words that bless and connect. "O Tulsīdās, don’t go in that house. Even if the diamonds are falling down in your house." "Guru Brahmā, Guru Viṣṇu, Guru Deva Maheśvara, Guru Sākṣāt Parabrahma, Tasmai Śrī Gurave Namaḥ." Filming location: Salzburg, Austria
Practising third level of Yoga in Daily Life System
14:00 - 15:38 (98 min)
Recorded on
A guided practice integrating āsana, prāṇāyāma, and relaxation begins with breath awareness and gentle movement. Settle the body and deepen the breath to receive prāṇa. Coordinate movement with inhalation and exhalation, maintaining inner attention. Practice stretches, Pāvanamuktāsana, and Vajrāsana with focus on spinal alignment. Perform inverted postures like Viparīta Karaṇī Mudrā with care, distinguishing it from Śīrṣāsana. Practice standing āsanas such as Garuḍāsana and Trikoṇāsana with balance and concentration, avoiding force. Conclude with Prāṇāyāma, specifically Nāḍī Śodhana, to purify the energy channels. Chant Oṃ to complete the practice. "Throughout the entire practice, strive to maintain your attention within yourself." "For all balancing postures, it is essential first to calm the mind, and only then can the balancing postures be performed well." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Purify yourself inside and out
15:45 - 16:28 (43 min)
Recorded on
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.
How do we practice Bhramari?
16:35 - 16:54 (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

Yoga leads to the healthy way of life
17:25 - 18:09 (44 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is a universal practice for complete human health and societal balance. It is not a dogma or a man-made religion, but the foundation of sanātana dharma, the eternal principle of harmony. True yoga encompasses all aspects of life, leading to peace and non-violence. Its aim is samādhi, the merging of knowledge, knower, and object into oneness. The discipline of Rāja Yoga is the ethical foundation of governance, where a leader must follow the same dharma enforced for all. A leader is given the dharma daṇḍa, the stick of righteous law, to protect the community with love and justice. Spiritual practice must be applied through selfless action. "Yoga is not a part of any religion. If, then, all religion is a part of yoga, because yoga is good health, happiness, harmony, peace, non-violence, understanding, kindness, and love." "Law is for all. Sūrya is rising for all, and therefore you will be punished. Not that you think that you are a king and you will not be punished. Dharma will punish you, the principle, the discipline, the rules." Filming location: Raumati Beach, New Zealand

Chantiing A-U-M and Kundalini Shakti
19:25 - 20:38 (73 min)
Recorded on
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
The Path of Discipline: Kriyā Anuṣṭhāna and the Inner Chariot
20:45 - 21:32 (47 min)
Recorded on
The Kriyā Anuṣṭhāna is a profound sādhanā for spiritual development. This practice brings peace, balance, and self-awareness. The complete discipline lasts three months, requiring strict isolation, silence, and a pure diet. Most practitioners undertake a shorter, condensed version. Success demands rigorous physical and mental preparation, including bodily stillness and dietary control. The ten indriyas, or senses, are like horses pulling the chariot of the body and mind. Their control is essential, as desires and mental modifications are major obstacles. The practice aims to internalize awareness, leading to the perception of inner sounds and, ultimately, a transcendent resonance. Discipline over the senses and avoidance of distracting sensory contact are foundational. "Patañjali said, 'Atha yoga anuśāsanam.' Out of a hundred people, perhaps thirty percent will be successful." "Your body is that city, and you are the king of this kingdom. The senses are your subjects. Do not be their slave." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
The Science of Kriyā Yoga
21:40 - 22:20 (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."
