We are all one, and yoga is the practice of uniting. Our world needs oneness, and we pray for each other across all cultures and religions. Different traditions have different calendars and celebrations, but all seek happiness and we should respect them. This time of year is for reflection and connection after eleven months that may have brought disease, disaster, or conflict. We pray for a peaceful coming year. The essence of yoga is that we are all one—not high or low. Our practice is a spiritual science for health, which is our true wealth. A core teaching is that everything is interconnected: "One in all and all in one." This applies to all living beings and the five layers of our being. Yoga as union has existed since the beginning. Festivals arise in various cultures to foster spirituality and community during times when people might otherwise idle and conflict. Our traditions, like decorations and gift-giving, are active expressions of this unifying spirit. The aim of Yoga in Daily Life is to bring people into this experience of oneness through practice and understanding. "One in all and all in one. That's all." "In this month we should connect and we can pray... We pray that the coming year will be peaceful and harmonious." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

We are transforming desert into oasis, a spiritual and environmental journey. God prepared a beautiful home, but human attachment led to greed, fear, and anger, transforming that paradise. We now live in Kali Yuga, where forests, rivers, and air are degraded. Deserts appear as jungles are burned for agriculture. Modern development brought tubewells, pumping the earth's blood and lowering the water table. We must change direction. Our master chose this barren land to build an ashram, a school. We cleared poisonous bush and planted over 100,000 native trees. We divided the land into fields with small dams to hold moisture and protect soil. We built a system to catch rainwater, channeling it through fields into a sealed lake for our use, with surplus filling another lake to recharge groundwater. The water table rose from 100 meters deep to one meter below the surface. The ashram is becoming a jungle, attracting 60 bird species and many animals. This shows we can restore harmony with nature. We are nature. Our inner transformation mirrors the land's: we root out anger and greed, planting seeds of love. The ashram builds us as we build it. "We are pumping the blood of Mother Earth." "We are building an ashram, and the ashram is building us." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Satsang from Linz, Austria. Translation of the bhajan Sri Madhavanandaji Prabhu Ananda Dijo. This bhajan was written by our Gurudeva many many years ago. He requests Holy Guruji to grant us happiness and accept our service. Explanation and practice of Ashwini mudra, AUM chanting and Bhramari pranayama.

Our food choices, from potatoes to meat, are entangled with health, karma, and the difficulty of living purely in this age. Potatoes are often unhealthy due to pesticides and chemicals absorbed into the earth, which can take over a decade to purify. Many oils, like refined or cottonseed oil, are harmful and contribute to disease. Modern wheat has excessive gluten. The widespread consumption of meat creates collective sin and karma, stemming from the breeding, selling, and torturing of animals. In this Kali Yuga, we are often forced or tricked into consuming animal products unknowingly, through items like bread or oil. Our weakness and greed, along with market forces making meat cheap, drive this. The solution is to seek organic, local produce like good olive oil, and to diversify our diet with grains, beans, and preserved vegetables instead of relying on potatoes and junk food. We must relearn ancestral preservation methods. Ultimately, some advanced beings show it is possible to live beyond physical food, drawing energy directly from the sun or divine sources. "Sin is that which creatures, beautiful creatures, are there... torturing them, what they call halal, is a pain; the pain is the sin." "When we innocently eat something, and then God will say, 'You also ate,' and I will say, 'No.'" Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Anuṣṭhāna is a dedicated spiritual practice undertaken for a specific purpose. You make a saṅkalpa, a promise to yourself, to perform sādhanā for spiritual growth, health, success, or family harmony. It is often done for one's spouse, praying for their well-being, fostering oneness in the household. This practice extends to praying for good crops and rain, offering the first harvest to God as a blessing. True harmony is seen in traditional multi-generational families where all live as one community, in contrast to modern fragmentation. Anuṣṭhāna also means praying for all creatures and the natural world, recognizing our responsibility to animals and plants. The practice includes physical austerity, but accommodations are made for health reasons, as the intention comes from the heart. Ultimately, anuṣṭhāna is a prayer for universal peace and happiness, embracing the mantra "sarve bhavantu sukhinaḥ"—may all be happy. "Anuṣṭhāna is when you make a saṅkalpa. Saṅkalpa means you promise yourself to undertake a practice for a certain purpose." "We pray that all creatures should live in peace, harmony, and health. God protect all. This is our Anuṣṭhāna."

Focus on precise alignment and synchronized group practice in yoga. Maintain a long neck without shortening it. Stabilize the lower back using the belly muscles. Movements should be deliberate, not seeking a stretch but simply moving. Synchronization is crucial; the group must move together on the count. Specific instructions are given for poses like lifting one leg, bending the knee, and feeling stretches in targeted muscles. The practice includes Śaśāṅkāsana, described as reducing fear and stress while aiding digestion and circulation. Another pose, Uttānapṛṣṭhāsana, strengthens the trunk and spine. A Marjari variation focuses on mobilizing the thoracic spine. Instructions emphasize normal yoga full breath, checking shoulder position, and relaxing specific body parts. The session ends with relaxation techniques, allowing any comfortable position, followed by permission to drink water. "It has to be all together." "Normal breath means the yoga full breath."

The life of a sage demonstrates the attainment of everlasting bliss through divine realization. True happiness is the hidden treasure of life, found only through God-realization. A young seeker's profound prayer led him to his master, Śrīdīp Nārāyaṇa Mahāprabhujī, an encounter he experienced as a homecoming. He devoted himself completely, becoming a monk through a supreme initiation that conferred instant samādhi. He was refined through austerity and his master's mercy. After his master's departure, he became the spiritual successor, establishing and caring for ashrams. He tirelessly spread teachings of non-dualism, non-violence, and universal humanity through discourse and song. His power flowed from unwavering devotion, meditating on his guru's name for over eighteen hours daily. This pure love overcomes all obstacles between the soul and God. He authored a biography of his master and was honored as a Dharma Samrāṭ. His divine consciousness merged with the cosmic in 2003. His samādhi shrine became his final throne. His disciple continues the divine mission. The sage's life is a clear message: identifying with the body is ignorance; realizing pure consciousness is wisdom. "My eyes filled with tears, and I fell to my knees. I knew I had found the everlasting light of my life." "Only love of such purity and intensity overcomes all obstacles and removes all the curtains between us and God." Filming location: Bola Guda, India

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Rijeka Ashram, Croatia. Nowadays, people lose their teeth quickly.We should get back to nature again. There are many things in nature that can improve the health of teeth as well. Violin music and singing for the soul. We must find God within ourselves. The story of an American practitioner and the very beginning of the OM Ashram.

The essence of practice is to remember God and act with grace toward all creatures. Your spiritual practice is good. If you claim to have no time for practice, you might as well claim to have no time to eat. Food is vital for all beings, from elephants to ants, yet it is God who provides it. Do not be proud, for the giver is God. Different lands have different names for God, and that is good. Many no longer pray before meals, thinking humanity can do everything, but God is present everywhere, balancing all things. We are in the age of Kali Yuga; be careful. Our visible practice is one thing, but we must aim for the unity of Brahmaloka. Life is like drawing water from a deep well; the rope may break just as you near the top. All our efforts can be lost in an instant. We are like caged parrots, fed but unable to fly freely. Therefore, practice your mantra, think good thoughts for all beings, and live with happiness and kindness. The goal is to become one in peace and harmony. "It is said: if you have no time for practicing yoga or anything, then it means you also have no time for eating." "So, my dears, we want, and we should pray more and more. Here is not enough, and that is not enough." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The roots of Yoga in Daily Life are traced to the saint Ālakapurījī from the Satya Yuga. Evidence was found after long research, including the discovery of his Himalayan cave between Kedarnath and Badrinath. The river Alaknandā is named after him. When it meets the Bhagīrathī at Devaprayāg, they form the complete Gaṅgā. Compassion is the first step. When it awakens, your heart becomes like a mother's, feeling the suffering of all creatures. Every yogī is an incarnation. Through practice, awareness arises that every entity is my Ātmā. The individual soul suffers and changes, but the Ātmā is one, universal, and observing. God gave fear for survival. Non-violence means causing no trouble—physical, mental, or emotional—to others or to yourself through anger or hate. Violence returns as karma. Yoga brings peace by reducing greed, jealousy, and ego. It is for body, energy, mind, and liberation. The system has spread, promoting health and harmony, as seen in the peaceful separation of Czech and Slovak peoples. Knowledge, like a river, flows for all. "Viśva prāṇī merī ātmā hai—every entity is my Ātmā." "Ātmā soi Paramātmā; Ātmā is the Supreme, the Highest, God." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Vienna, Austria. The full moon affects us whether we are aware of it or not. We are searching for our aim, but we have many complications in this world. Finally we have to leave with empty hands. By practicing yoga vidya we can awaken our awareness.

Our inner voice and the quality of our thoughts shape our reality. We have tens of thousands of thoughts daily, each an internal conversation. In crucial moments, this voice arises with doubt. The key is not what it says, but how it speaks—whether softly or harshly. This tone affects our mood and state more than the content. We can practice changing this inner dialogue to be loving, as in maitrī meditation. Speaking kindly to ourselves allows us to speak kindly to others. Laughter declines from childhood to adulthood, indicating a loss of inner joy. Cultivating a gentle inner voice can reverse this trend. When facing decisions, practice prāṇāyāma to calm the nervous system and cultivate a "big trust" that life happens for you, regardless of the outcome. Mantra repetition is about the bhāva, the inner feeling, not the volume. "It doesn’t even matter what it’s saying. It’s just about, is it talking soft or is it talking hard?" "Life happens not to you, life happens for you." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Public lecture of Vishwaguruji from Hotel Sheraton in Zagreb, Croatia.

The four aspects of grace culminate in self-love, which is essential for spiritual growth. Grace has four aspects: divine grace for human incarnation, scriptural grace from sacred texts, guru's grace from the teacher, and self-grace, which is giving mercy to oneself. Guru's grace is a response to the disciple's devotion and service. Applying this to oneself means loving yourself and giving that grace to yourself. Self-love is not ego, which takes, but a high vibration that gives. A key teaching is to love others at least as much as you love yourself, yet many struggle with self-love. A practical example is sending loving energy to your own body, which can have healing effects. The path to self-love involves three steps: first, accept yourself as you are. Second, seek to understand how you became who you are through self-inquiry. Third, from understanding comes the desire to give, including forgiving yourself. This process of accept, understand, and give is the essence of the teaching. "Love each and every living being, if not more, then at least as much as yourself." "We cannot really love others if we don't love ourselves." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The Guru is omnipresent, and our practice is to recognize and honor this presence. He is always observing and is within us. His physical presence is a blessing, but his true nature is everywhere. We must cultivate love and devotion, which together allow our spiritual connection to grow. Serving him and being in his company is the primary practice, as it reduces the ego. We must learn to surrender completely, trusting him without relying on our own logic. He tests our faith, and those who trust him completely will find all obstacles removed. Approach him not with trivial questions but to seek blessings for your sincere endeavors. His guidance may come in many forms, all of which are for our benefit. Ultimately, we must believe he is the sole doer, and we are instruments in his divine play. "When you close your eyes, or when you even open your eyes, you can see his form sitting here. We should not think that Gurudev is physically not here, but Gurudev is omnipresent." "If we have that mindset within us, then nothing is going to stop us in this world, and we just need to continue this beautiful, beautiful legacy what Gurudev has created and just know that he is inside, and he is always with us."

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Vep, Hungary. Bhajan singing. Relaxation. There are some spices which are very good for joints like ginger and garlic. Agnidevi shows an ayurvedic medicine which is good for joints. She speaks about the ingredients and the preparation of that medicine.

The true Self is the witness of all states of consciousness, not the experiencer within them. The three common states are waking, dreaming, and deep sleep, experienced by the individual soul. There is a fourth, Turīya, which is not a state but the unchanging witness consciousness behind the other three. The individual soul, through ignorance, identifies with the body and mind and their changing states. The goal is to realize one's true identity as this silent witness, not the limited experiencer. This is achieved by hearing the truth, reflecting on it, and meditating upon it. Withdraw identification from the body, mind, and the three states. Abide as the witness to know yourself as the immortal Turīya, beyond all change. "The Self, indeed, is to be seen, to be heard, to be reflected upon, and to be meditated upon."

Yoga in Daily Life systematically promotes health in the Czech Republic. The system began here in 1973, based on the traditional concept of Vedānta. It offers training on four levels: physical, mental, social, and spiritual, for everyone regardless of background. This aligns with the national health strategy, which now explicitly includes spiritual health. New government action plans until 2020 target areas where yoga can directly contribute: promoting physical activity, proper nutrition, mental health, reducing risky behaviors, and mitigating environmental stress. The system's sophisticated, methodology-unique techniques make it suitable for research and intervention programs, with publications available for specific health groups. The association has grown to become the largest in the country, with a widespread network of centers offering lessons. "The state belongs to those that allow and highly appreciate cooperation with public, private, and non-governmental organizations." "This harmonizing of the physical, mental, social, and spiritual level, is truly the only chance to keep peace and development in our society." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

Our heart is a well of giving that must flow to remain pure. We are born from and abide within a vast spiritual ocean. Knowing "I am" and feeling God within, we are here not to sit idly but to help others. Helping flows from the heart, generating more power, peace, and love. Giving enlarges the heart; withholding causes stagnation. Just as a well gives fresh water the more it is drawn, the heart yields more peace and harmony through giving. We must not refuse to give, for in truth, you are everything. Our inner energy must be kept alive by giving what we like. Even when the body perishes, the heart becomes a vast space. We practice to attain this greatness, giving to all beings. This heart-based spirituality surpasses all books. We are ultimately one.

The sense of life is to become happy and free from past suffering and karma. Satsaṅg is the best way to attain this peace. Our inner self, which seeks happiness, is a part of God. We often search for this self externally, but it cannot be found that way. To understand God and oneself, one must attend satsaṅg and study the scriptures. Yoga is the union of the self with the Cosmic Self. All who take physical form, even God, must endure certain sufferings according to cosmic law. We are here due to our karma, while God incarnates by free decision, yet He too must accept difficulties, sometimes due to curses. Even a great devotee like Nārada once cursed Viṣṇu, causing Him to incarnate again. This occurs when one's intellect becomes confused. We must always pray for positive intellect. "If the self is searching for the self somewhere, we will never find it anywhere." "The difference between us and God is that we came to the world because of our karma, and He came according to His own decision." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 155b
