The Holy Land

Recorded on
Prayāgarāj is the king of holy places, where the Kumbh Melā is held. According to myth, it is where the nectar fell and three rivers, including the underground Sarasvatī, meet. The major festival occurs on a sacred constellation. While a melā happens annually, the sādhus recognize a major Pūrṇa Kumbha every four years. Millions attend to bathe, believing sins are washed away, and to discuss spiritual and societal governance. A system was established last century by the monastic akhāṛās. Following the tradition of the Śaṅkarācāryas, they created the title Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara. This honourable role is for caretaking—to solve problems and provide for sannyāsīs and ashrams. However, a committee with a constitution holds the authority. This committee selects one Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara to serve as the presiding Ācārya. All decisions are made by the committee. "Everyone knows the precise day, which we call Makar Saṅkrānti, when the sun begins moving north." "Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara is not a dominator but a caretaker who solves problems and provides assistance."

Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on the preciousness and purpose of human life. "Vishwagurujī is always mentioning that 8.4 million creatures are in this world. And this is one human life. That life, if we get, then we can get liberated." "If you are human, what should be the difference?... If we have some dharma, if we are doing bhakti, if we are doing spiritual practices, if we are following guru ājñā... then we are the human in human body." A speaker at Om Ashram addresses a gathering, explaining why human life is a rare opportunity for liberation. He uses an allegory of a man trapped in a well to describe attachment to worldly illusion (māyā) and the need for a guru's guidance. The talk contrasts basic animal instincts with the spiritual duties that define a human being, urging the audience to follow the path of seva, bhakti, and sādhanā.

Recorded on
A satsang discourse on the nature of the Guru and the path to inner peace. "Guru is Brahmā, Guru is Viṣṇu, and Guru is Maheśa. He holds all the qualities, or he is higher than God." "The ultimate goal for us is mokṣa, self-realization. The help, the guidance, will always come from Gurudev, but the work has to be done by ourselves." A speaker addresses a gathering, expounding on the supreme position of the Satguru as the embodiment of the divine trinity and the essential guide. He discusses the necessity of personal effort, surrender, and enduring the Guru's disciplining 'hammering' to progress spiritually.

A discourse on the Īśāvāsya Upaniṣad, focusing on the integration of worldly and spiritual knowledge. "Those who are studying this knowledge [worldly] are going into the darkness... But those who are concentrated only on spiritual knowledge are finishing even in the worst darkness." "From time immemorial, the Vedas were telling karma yoga and spiritual practice go together. Always go together." The lecturer explains the sixth mantra, which presents a paradox: exclusive pursuit of either worldly knowledge (avidyā) or spiritual knowledge (vidyā) leads to a form of darkness. He clarifies that the path is to use both together—worldly knowledge for life and spiritual knowledge to transcend death. The teaching emphasizes understanding both the manifest and unmanifest realities to cross beyond attachment and attain liberation. Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

6:10 - 6:52 (42 min)

Evening Satsang from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. Many people in the world practise prayer and meditation, but they don't know the aim of human life. Great rishis are praying for every living being. We should control all of our senses. There is God's light in every creature. Great spiritual personalities blessed the inauguration of the Rupavas temple with their presence. All the Masters of our parampara were taking care of cows, and Vishwaguruji also does. Cows hold an important place in Indian culture. The products of the cow are very valuable. Never kill cows, but take care of them.
Yoga is a science
7:00 - 8:19 (79 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is the science of body, mind, consciousness, and soul, requiring spirituality. Our subject is Kuṇḍalinī and the chakras, the hidden powers in human consciousness. Chakras are rotating wheels that receive and circulate cosmic energy through the body. We possess five bodies or layers: the physical, energy, mental, intellectual, and causal bodies. The causal body holds both fleeting joy and divine, everlasting bliss. The soul is a collection of karma and qualities; it dissolves upon self-realization, merging with the cosmic One. Chakras must be purified through mantra, prayer, and yogic practices for the Kuṇḍalinī to awaken safely; without guidance, imbalance and unpleasantness can occur. Life is love, and God is love. Our happiness and world peace depend on individual friendship and forgiveness. We must act according to place and time. The Mūlādhāra chakra is the root foundation, associated with the earth element and the color red. The lotus symbolizes growing in the world while remaining untouched by its temptations and dualities. The four petals represent the four aims of human life: dharma (duty/righteousness), artha (wealth), kāma (righteous desire and procreation), and mokṣa (liberation). "Yoga without spirituality is like a body without a soul; no achievement can take place without spirituality." "If you protect your dharma, dharma will protect you." Filming location: Australia

The lecturer leads an evening satsang, offering contemplative reflections on the ātmā (Self), the jīva (individual soul), and the interconnectedness of all life. He explores themes of meditation, the limitations of physical travel versus spiritual expansion, and the relationship between yogic science and worldly science, sharing personal anecdotes including a healing story. The session includes a guided energy exercise and concludes with devotional singing. Filming location: Vienna, Austria
The Nature of Kuṇḍalinī, Śiva, and Śakti
11:30 - 12:10 (40 min)
Recorded on
Kuṇḍalinī is the energy and consciousness within us, encompassing our karma and destiny. It is the union of Śiva and Śakti. Śiva is pure, liberating consciousness—the ultimate truth and beauty present in all, beyond gender. Its seat in the body is the Brahmaraṅdhra at the crown. Śakti is the active energy entangled with karma, longing to merge with Śiva for liberation. This union brings Turīya, Self-realization, and the end of rebirth. The human life is the sole opportunity for this realization. Awakening Kuṇḍalinī is a subtle, indescribable spiritual process requiring a master's guidance and years of sāttvic preparation to avoid dangers of the mind straying. It cannot be forced; it arises spontaneously in the correct relationship. The spiritual lineage ensures safe progress. "‘I am the pure consciousness’ is wisdom; ‘I am the body’ is ignorance." "When Śakti merges into Śiva, that is liberation." Filming location: Kranj, Slovenia

The video presents a hymn, "The Ocean of Grace," praising Gurudeva Nirañjana as the supreme creator and destroyer. This is followed by a section titled "Remarks on Logical Inconsistencies," which critically analyzes the hymn's grammatical ambiguities, shifting divine address, and conceptual tensions between themes of destruction and divine causation.

Awaken to Knowledge, O Residents of Bhārat
13:45 - 13:50 (5 min)

A spiritual address and subsequent analysis of its logical structure. "Now, awaken to knowledge, all you desirous ones, residents of Bhārat. Do not follow any other religion." "Do not destroy any doctrine, Jee. All you world-makers, now you awaken to knowledge." The video presents a poetic, imperative call to the "residents of Bhārat" (India) to awaken to knowledge, learn from all people, and protect doctrines, followed by a critical textual analysis. The analysis highlights contradictions in the address, such as commanding exclusivity while forbidding the destruction of other doctrines, and notes ambiguous, shifting subjects and the unexplained introduction of the term "Nugrojī."

The Essence of Īśāvāsya: From Ethics to Unity
13:55 - 14:13 (18 min)
Recorded on
A discourse on the first four mantras of the Īśāvāsya Upaniṣad, explaining ethical principles and the Advaita philosophy of unity. "God is everywhere. So, if God is everywhere and you have only this, it means you are supposed to have this." "The one who sees everybody in himself... Once you manage to connect that each and every one of us is connected, then there is no hatred." A speaker provides a verse-by-verse commentary on the Upaniṣad, beginning with instructions against greed and on performing one's duty. The teaching progresses to the non-dual principle that the divine is all-pervasive, unmoving yet faster than the mind, and inside and outside all beings. The key message is that realizing this unity eliminates hatred and sorrow, but this requires personal practice beyond intellectual understanding. Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Around the world -- Yoga against diabetes from Czech Republic
17:00 - 17:07 (7 min)
Recorded on
Yoga addresses modern diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes through holistic practices. Prolonged stress disrupts physical and mental balance, leading to illness. The system views these conditions from a holistic perspective, where emotional and psychological stress contribute alongside organic dysfunctions. Practices such as relaxation, āsanas, and meditation can influence insulin-producing cells and control disease factors. These techniques shape our attitude toward health, cultivating relaxation, balance, and discipline to achieve physical, mental, and spiritual well-being. The exercises are systematically arranged for accessibility, even for the elderly or those with limited mobility. Practitioners need only the determination to improve concentration, physical condition, and mental calmness. Teachers should emphasize slowness, calmness, and harmonization, instilling the principle of observing one's body and breath. The practice supports reducing adipose tissue and involves specific movements performed with mindful observation. "Yoga practices shape our attitude toward health and life." "Practitioners should be instilled with the principle of perceiving their own body, observing the rhythm of the breath." Filming location: Czech Republic

Live the life of a Human
17:55 - 18:15 (20 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is the lifelong path for human life. Just as we need constant nourishment, consistent yoga practice maintains our balance and health. Human life is a precious gift from God, given to protect nature and all creatures, and to live in harmony. This life represents the final, difficult step to reach Brahmaloka, a goal accessible through every religion's path. The ultimate destination is one God, reached by many roads. Human destruction comes from ego and pride in position, wealth, or power. These should instead be used to serve and help others. All spiritual practices, including prayer, kneeling, and helping, are yoga. Substance abuse stems from social problems or a lost sense of humanity. Preserving family, culture, and tradition is vital, as is maintaining one's origin and home. In the current age, even yogis compete, though yoga itself has no competition. Our programs serve everyone, from children—our future—to adults and teacher trainees, through classes, meditation, and instruction. "Helping hands have more value than folded hands." "It doesn’t matter through which way you will come; ultimately, I will be there to welcome you, bless you, liberate you, and guide you to the Brahmaloka." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
The value and the aim of humanlife
18:16 - 18:45 (29 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on the value of human life and the pursuit of self-realization. "We do not know the value of a human life. When a merchant comes—like a divine master, a spiritual master such as Viśvagurujī—into your life, you have an experience." "Our main aim as humans is to work for self-realization, for mokṣa, for jñāna, for brahma jñāna. Yet we are not working." A speaker from the Oṁ Śrī Alagpuryā Siddha Pīṭha paramparā addresses a gathering at the Yoga and Daily Life center. He uses parables—a diamond mistaken for a stone and a king's exhibition—to illustrate how humans often miss life's supreme spiritual purpose while distracted by worldly attractions. He emphasizes that the aim of human life is self-realization, achievable by following the Guru's teachings, engaging in satsaṅg, and turning inward to discover divine energy and inner joy.

The Science of Yoga and the Awakening of Inner Energy
19:40 - 20:55 (75 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is the science of balancing body, mind, and consciousness, originating from the cosmic consciousness of Śiva. Two governing powers exist: divine and devilish forces, balanced by one cosmic energy, Yogamāyā. Yoga harmonizes our elements and is the mother of all spirituality. Its ultimate goal is union, the reunion of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness. This cosmic consciousness is the one formless God within all creatures. Human intellect is unique and can be trained toward this realization. The body contains energy channels, nāḍīs, and centers, chakras. The three main nāḍīs are Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumnā, through which consciousness flows. Chakras can be awakened through practice like prāṇāyāma and meditation. We possess five bodies, with the soul residing within. Liberation, mokṣa, is complete oneness with God, requiring the surrender of personal ego. Karma, our action, is in our hands until performed; then it becomes destiny. Our roots and destiny are in the Mūlādhāra Chakra. The human body is a precious opportunity for God-realization through self-knowledge. The practice of yoga, including positive action, tolerance, and love, is a path to peace and unity. "Yoga means union: the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness." "Know thyself is the answer to all your questions. Know thyself is the end of all your sufferings."
