Pyare darashana diyo aj
0:15 - 0:18 (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.

0:50 - 1:56 (66 min)
The path requires spiritual discipline through specific principles. Enter the divine kingdom through sacrifice and renunciation. The first principle is austerity, the strength to endure situations without being offended. The second is work; without puruṣārtha, one attains nothing. Dharma, prosperity, duty, and liberation are realized only through disciplined action. Dependence—financial, physical, or emotional—is a source of suffering. Cultivate multi-talented readiness for any work to eliminate fear and attachment. Practice discipline and regularity in all things, including diet and conduct. Study sacred texts and introspect to know thyself. Renounce attachment to remain free while fulfilling your duties. Success is self-knowledge and becoming a guiding force, achieved through austerity, renunciation, study, and constant practice.
"Without work, no one gets anything in the world."
"Know thyself is the answer to all your questions and sufferings."

The Destiny
3:00 - 4:21 (81 min)
Our body is a divine energy system of chakras, and destiny is recorded within it. Chakras are energy centers connecting consciousness, space, and energy. The body is an indescribable creation; it transforms food into life in a way no machine can. Our destiny is the fruit of past actions, recorded in our energy field like an unerasable line on stone. We cannot delete it, but through spiritual practice, we can rise above it. The Ājñā Chakra, or third eye, when opened, grants vision of past, present, and future. Negative energies—Kāma, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Ahaṅkāra—arise from the lower chakras and bind us. These must be replaced with positive qualities: Tyāga, Vairāgya, Bhakti, Jñāna, and Viveka. A practice like Pañcāmṛta—a mixture of milk, yogurt, butter, honey, and pure water—used in worship, can help purify energy and balance the chakras. Following a master's guidance can help monitor and navigate destiny, though not erase it. The aim is to realize the oneness of all consciousness.
"Destiny is a line on the stone. We can't delete it."
"When we realize the oneness, then there is no difference between God and us, because it's the same energy, the same space."

The Pearl of Everlasting Bliss
7:35 - 7:56 (21 min)
Life's deepest treasure is complete and everlasting bliss, the crown of self-realization rooted in God-realization. Rare beings attain this pearl of Paramānanda. A seeker's deep prayer brought him face-to-face with his divine master, seeing the form of Śrī Kṛṣṇa. He became a true disciple, devoting body, mind, and soul. He received the highest spiritual initiation, instantly attaining samādhi. His life was a permanent establishment in the highest spiritual experience under his master's guidance. As a spiritual successor, he built and established āśrams, tirelessly spreading the light. He preached non-dualism, non-violence as the highest religion, and the unity of all humanity through song and service. His devotion was Parabhakti, love without reservation, repeating the divine name for over eighteen hours daily. Such love overcomes all obstacles between us and God. He became a living testament that this realization is possible.
"My eyes filled with tears, and I fell to my knees. I knew I had found the everlasting light of my life."
"All humans belong to one religion, and that is humanity."

Hatha Yoga Kriyas (2/3)
8:00 - 8:27 (27 min)
Trāṭak is the sixth Haṭha Yoga purification, a practice of gazing on one point to concentrate and purify the sight. It uses a candle flame, a black spot, or the rising or setting sun, never direct sunlight. The flame is placed at arm's length, which strengthens eyesight and helps those who are short- or far-sighted. It trains the mind to focus on one point, calming scattered thoughts and vrittis, leading toward one-pointedness and meditation. Practice requires a peaceful place without drafts or disturbances, wearing loose, natural clothing to contain energy. The ideal flame height is at the heart center, as gazing on the outer light opens the heart chakra and leads to perception of the inner light. Pure ghee lamps are best, but a non-smoking plant-based candle is acceptable. Begin by gazing at the middle of the flame for 30 seconds, then close the eyes to observe the afterimage, repeating this cycle three times. Keep the body and eyes still, relaxing the eyebrow center. Do not practice if overly tired, or if experiencing schizophrenia or depression.
"Trāṭak is not relaxation; it is not meditation. It is concentration."
"Take this light, this flame, inside. This light is the symbol of the highest Self."

We are full of resonance
8:35 - 9:29 (54 min)
All paths converge to a single essence. Different masters and gods are like separate drops that ultimately enter the ocean. From that ocean, differentiation arises again, just as water evaporates to form clouds. The purpose is to understand why some return quickly while others fall far away. A story illustrates this: seeds ground between two stones become flour, but a handful near the central hook remain complete. Those who surrender at the holy feet are like those seeds; they are not ground but come to the highest. Another story tells of a yogi saddened by slaughter; in meditation, it was revealed the karma belongs to the actors, not the witness. Satsang attendees are already there and will reach the supreme. The sound within, like the ocean's resonance, is Nādarūpa Parabrahma. This vibration is in the whole universe and within all. Do not sit passively like a dead body; respond and awaken to this sound.
"Those who come to the Gurudevs, or your God, or your temples, or your church—where we are at the holy feet of the gods—they will not be ground."
"It is their karma, and they will get it back again. But you have done nothing. You see, it is painful, but you have not done."

The evolution of the Universe
9:35 - 10:26 (51 min)
Yoga is the ancient science of body, mind, and soul, originating from the very beginning of endless cosmic cycles. It stems from the interplay between universal consciousness and space. The creator, Śiva, manifested from the primordial sound, or resonance, which holds the universe together. This resonance is in every cell, creating harmony. Yoga is not merely physical exercise but the pursuit of health, balance, and oneness. The human body is a microcosm of five elements and contains energy centers, or chakras, along subtle nerves. Our awareness and practices like prāṇāyāma, postures, and chanting purify these energies, address ailments from stored emotions, and align us with the cosmic dance of creation and dissolution, leading toward liberation.
"Yoga is not just that physical exercise. We call it yoga because it must bring good health, balance, harmony, and oneness of body, mind, and soul."
"From the end of the spinal column is the seat of Śiva and Gaṇeśa. Gaṇeśa is in the Mūlādhāra Cakra. Mūla means roots."

The form of God is the vibration
11:25 - 12:25 (60 min)
Oṃ is the divine sound, the origin and essence of all creation.
Oṃ is the primordial vibration, the sound-form of the absolute. Its written symbol contains a Bindu, representing both the point from which the universe emerged and the drop of immortal nectar. Yogis meditate upon it eternally. It grants desires and liberation. This is not a sound we create but an existing reality we resonate with through chanting. The practice of Nāda Yoga uses outer sound to journey toward the inner experience of Oṃ. At the highest stage, this sound is perceived directly, transforming into light and expanding consciousness. All true mantras contain Oṃ. It is described as the Word present at creation, the formless source that manifests as the three qualities composing the world. Spiritual practice without connection to Oṃ is considered fruitless. Chanting purifies, illuminates, and awakens divine bliss.
"Oṃ is the divine name. Oṃ is God."
"Oṃkār bina, sādhanā sapahote bikārī re."

The way how yoga is helping us
12:30 - 13:33 (63 min)
The human body is a vehicle for attaining liberation, requiring purification of three primary obstacles: impurities, disturbances, and ignorance. The soul descends through cycles of birth among 8.4 million life forms, with human birth being a rare opportunity. The intellect is a powerful tool to discover hidden powers within the 72,000 nerves, particularly the four principal ones governing health, emotion, activity, and consciousness. Two fundamental forces, divine and negative, constantly interact within, influenced by time and place. The chakras represent rotating energies, with the foundational Mūlādhāra Chakra housing unconscious consciousness and past, present, and future potentials. Impurities—physical, mental, and emotional—must be cleansed through Haṭha Yoga techniques, which balance emotion and intellect. Disturbances are restless thoughts and waves that prevent clear perception and meditation. Ignorance is a curtain over consciousness, removed through attentive listening in silent spiritual gatherings. The inner instrument consists of mind, intellect, memory, and ego, influenced by the three qualities of harmony, activity, and inertia. These qualities stem from diet, society, and habits. True progress requires mastering speech and action, understanding that the world is transient, and seeking the ultimate truth beyond it.
"Brahma-satya jagat-mithyā. The Brahman, the supreme God, which has no form, no name, but still He is there. He is omniscient and omnipresent. That is the final truth."
"Before you speak, think it over. Don't say always that I am right and I am right."

What is God?
13:40 - 14:38 (58 min)
The divine is perceived as both formless and with form. The formless God, Nirākāra, is like the horizon or sky—everywhere yet unreachable. The personal God, Sākāra, has a form we can relate to, speak with, and worship. Scripture states both are valid, but for humanity, worship with form is easier as it allows for relationship and dialogue. Our human nature encompasses both aspects. We are advised to use our divine potential through proper practice, as our latent powers can lead us toward divinity or negativity. How we speak and act directly impacts our spiritual and physical well-being, as our energy flows through subtle centers. We must choose a path that awakens our higher consciousness.
"both are good, Nirākāra and Sākāra, the formless and with form. But he said, for you... it is easier to worship in form."
"you have a chance of being a human... you are divine, you are godly, but all is dormant."

The name of the God you can't get everywhere
14:30 - 15:03 (33 min)
The divine path and God's name are the priceless jewels of human life. We are fortunate to receive guidance and protection from the spiritual tradition. This path is not found in the marketplace; it is given through grace. Walking this path deepens spiritual knowledge and faith, like diving into a peaceful ocean to find pearls. A human life without this spiritual aim is like an animal's life. True education includes both worldly knowledge and spiritual wisdom. Develop qualities like humility and mercy, for mercy is the root of dharma. Sin is giving unhappiness, even through harsh words. The divine name is an inner jewel that cannot be stolen; it always increases and guides the soul. The aim is self-realization, peace, and harmony.
"Yeṣāṁ na vidyā na tapo na dhanaṁ na jñānaṁ na śīlaṁ na guṇo na dharmaḥ, te mṛtyuloke bhuvibhāre bhūtā manuṣe rūpeṇa mṛgā caranti."

There is no end of learning
14:45 - 15:26 (41 min)
The ashram is heaven on earth, a place of immense energy where the Guru is always present in essence. A journey unfolds through divine guidance, not personal will. A trip to India for Guru Pūrṇimā was redirected by unseen forces, leading one back to the ashram family. Later, guidance came through a spoken sentence about Romania, which led to the establishment of an ashram there through inner instruction, not conversation. A pilgrimage to holy sites in the Himalayas was similarly guided, with paths clearing miraculously to allow darśan. In all endeavors, the Guru's direction is for self-learning. Yoga is a path to discover who one is. Scientific research into modified prāṇāyāma, inspired by the Guru's words, later fostered a university collaboration and a successful public yoga event, where a protective cloud appeared as a sign.
"With our yoga in daily life, it is not just āsana. It is a way to learn about ourselves and to look at ourselves."
"One sentence from Gurudev can change and influence so many things."

The Cosmic Worlds
15:30 - 16:30 (60 min)
Lokas are cosmic planes of consciousness, not physical places. The cosmos contains many lokas, with fourteen fundamental ones. Movement among them is a shift in awareness, not spatial travel. The waking state corresponds to the earthly Bhūrloka, dreaming to the astral Bhuvaḥloka, and deep meditation to the highest realms. These planes exist within the individual, mapped to the body's cakras and sheaths.
The seven higher lokas ascend from the earthly plane. Bhūrloka is the gross material world. Bhuvaḥloka is the astral sphere of dreams and transition. Svargaloka is a heavenly realm of temporary enjoyment for meritorious souls. Maharloka is a great sphere for sages beyond the current creation cycle. Janaloka is the sphere of creativity and liberated beings. Tapaloka is the sphere of ascetic fervor. Satyaloka, the highest, is the plane of truth and final liberation, where the soul merges with the Absolute. These realms dissolve in cosmic cycles, but the highest worlds are indestructible.
"The lokas denote the level of an individual’s consciousness—the plane of awareness."
"Movement among the lokas is not a spatial journey but a shift within our own consciousness."
How to use the mantra
16:35 - 17:13 (38 min)
Chanting mantras brings peace and purifies the environment through resonance. Life's disturbances agitate the mind, but mantra restores concentration and releases stress. The Guru Mantra profoundly affects body, mind, intellect, and consciousness. Five techniques exist for its practice.
First is writing the mantra daily; positive mantras are not secret and help others. Second is chanting aloud, which influences the three primary energy channels and awakens resonance within the chakras. Each alphabet in the chakras represents a protective power. Third is whispering with slight lip movement, a stage of turning inward while remaining aware. Fourth is mental repetition, which awakens the inner light of knowledge. Fifth is automatic repetition, where the mantra continues effortlessly like breath, requiring no physical or mental effort. This highest level operates constantly. Mantra chanting creates a powerful energy that awakens inner knowledge.
"The Mother Earth has enough for our need, but not for our greed."
"Ajāpa means you need not repeat. Neither your lips nor your tongue moves."

Mantras and Bhajans
18:30 - 19:10 (40 min)
Satsaṅg is the gathering where truth resides and God is the center. Life transforms in its light, allowing action with detachment. The broader meaning is a gathering of like-minded individuals focusing on God beyond any single religion. The closer meaning is the place where truth itself resides. Bhajans are the songs born from the realization of saints, expressing divine glory through poetry and melody. Diving into bhajans reveals endless layers of truth, which deepens with devoted repetition. This practice is a gentle medium for revelation, a base teaching requiring only voice or mind. To sing bhajans is to communicate with God and the masters, understanding their teachings.
"The center of every satsaṅg is God. It doesn’t matter which name."
"Bhajans highlight the glory of God in whatever form... The more often you repeat, the more you sing with devotion, with bhakti, the more the truth will reveal itself to you."

Mantra and Mala
19:15 - 19:53 (38 min)
Life is the Ātmā within all beings, seen through the Self. Humans consume life, yet must understand this act distances them from the supreme. Feeling pain teaches non-violence. To approach God requires immense time and grace; unintentional harm may be forgiven, but intentional killing bars the path. Saints do not boast; true greatness lies in selfless service.
The mala is a constant step toward God, paired with a mantra given by the guru or family. Regular prayer, like the Muslim practice, instills discipline. The greeting of praṇām is a mutual prayer for goodness. There are two mala practices: one uses a 108-bead mala with a Guru Mukhī bead, turned with the thumb and middle finger without crossing that bead. The other is Sumaran, a constant walking remembrance like the breath, without a guru point. The story of Hanuman illustrates that one's chosen divine name, like Rām, becomes an inseparable companion through constant repetition, leading ultimately to merging with divine light.
"One mala means for us one step toward God."
"Your Rām is your mother, your father, your brother, your good friend."

Be within thyself
20:00 - 20:45 (45 min)
True meditation is found within, not in external pursuits.
External experiences are temporary, like falling leaves or pictures of food that cannot satisfy hunger. The source of lasting peace and power resides inside every person. Looking outward in meditation is like a father distracting a child with promises; the comfort is fleeting. A seeker performing many rituals found no peace until instructed to simply rest inwardly and surrender all effort. Another devotee could not see Kṛṣṇa in meditation until taught to calm the inner vision. All that is sought—God, the guru, harmony—is already present within the self. The journey requires turning the senses inward to discover the permanent source behind the temporary world.
"Go within thyself. Whatever is given from outside is given... But what is given from outside is temporary."
"Close your eyes and rest. Give it to me... Don’t think anything. Now you should know that I am in my body."

Be joyful
20:50 - 21:17 (27 min)
The Guru's light manifests on earth as pure knowledge, requiring a living guide for correct spiritual practice. This divine principle, the Guru Tattva, is the same in all true teachers, yet disciples share an intimate, familial connection with their own. The guru's physical form is a vessel for this light; entering its radiant aura transforms one's energy. Even in the guru's physical absence, gathering with devotion in satsaṅg magnetically draws that divine presence. The quality of satsaṅg depends on the participants' internal energy. Approach it not as obligation but with joy, for your own energy determines the atmosphere. To elevate personal energy, engage in singing bhajans. Consciously replace negative thoughts with positive ones to rewire the mind toward happiness. A spiritual life must be a life of joy and inspiration, rooted in the constant feeling of connection to the divine.
"When bhaktas are together and singing my name, thinking on me, the Hari, the God, that divine energy comes to that place."

The divine name is the means to cross the ocean of worldly existence. Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Mahāprabhujī is the incarnation for all beings. By contemplating His name with grace, one cuts down desire, anger, and greed. The world's illusion remains far away through the Guru's grace. His name is the boat for crossing; the Satguru's grace is that boat. One who receives this grace finds their passage. At the time of dissolution, the Guru's light will manifest within the heart. By always holding His enchanting form in mind, one need not fear the net of illusion. The name itself provides absorption in divine feeling and ensures safe crossing.
"For the beings of the world—the jīvas and jinn—His name itself is the boat to cross the ocean of existence."
