The real Guru is in oneness
0:00 - 1:01 (61 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on universal oneness and the nature of the divine path. "If a God says, 'Do not worship that God,' then neither is that God right, nor are you good. We have to come to oneness." "The drop is not there. I am not a drop. I am the ocean. Similarly, we are in that condition. But you are still not near the beach of the ocean." The speaker, likely a spiritual teacher, leads a satsang exploring the essential unity of all spiritual paths and deities. He emphasizes that a true guru or God would never forbid the worship of another, advocating for a non-sectarian devotion. Using metaphors like a drop merging into the ocean and the irreversible flight of an airplane, he discusses the preciousness of time, the journey of the soul, and the nature of prana (life force) as both a suffering entity and a divine connection. The talk weaves between philosophical points, practical advice, and anecdotal reflections, concluding with a call for inner purity and an end to religious duality.

Sound and resonance
1:05 - 2:01 (56 min)
Recorded on
Morning Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Vep, Hungary. Regardless whether you understand bhajans or not, the resonance awakens spirituality in you. The resonance of the songs is reflected in our ten indriyas (organs of perception and action). Swami Sivananda said in his bhajan: those are my friends who understand my words. Shabda means sound, words. In the Gurukul, the warrior students learnt all mantras for archery. By the power of these mantras the arrow goes straight to where the sound of the tiger came from. Vishwaguruji explains the karmic sin of King Dasharatha, father of God Rama.

"O my Bhagavān, O Dātā means giver, I don't ask for anything, only one thing, please give me devotion." The speaker reflects on the intense devotion of the saint Meera Bai, using her poetry and life story to illustrate the soul's longing for union with the divine.

A spiritual address at an ashram gathering. "I have been around the world... I asked around the world, all yoga-in-life people and other yoga people, those who do not eat meat.

Therefore, it is Sanātana Dharma." A spiritual teacher addresses a diverse international group at an ashram. He shares observations on the COVID-19 pandemic, suggesting a link between a sattvic lifestyle and well-being, and emphasizes the importance of unity, respecting all spiritual paths, and maintaining a positive inner state.

Great Saints set an example
6:50 - 7:50 (60 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on dharma, sādhanā, and the essence of scripture. "Dharma means rightness—the dharma of humans, animals, nature, seasons, husband, wife, children, friends, and neighbors. It is not about worshipping separate gods." "The essence of all these scriptures is contained in just two words: 'Śuk diyā śuk hot hai, aur duk diyā duk hoī.' If you give pleasure to others, you will receive pleasure. If you give trouble to others, you will receive trouble." The lecturer delivers a teaching, contrasting superficial yoga techniques with the higher path of sādhanā. He defines true dharma as universal righteousness beyond religious division, emphasizing satsaṅg and the study of saints' lives. Using parables and references to historical figures—from Jesus and Guru Gobind Singh's sons to a self-sacrificing ṛṣi—he illustrates the power of commitment to dharma and the inner study of the self (svādhyāya).

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Raumati Beach Ashram, New Zealand. Yoga is not some kind of exercise. Yoga means union of the body, mind, and soul. Life means Soul. At the beginning of the Universe, there was only empty space, where resonance appeared. Shiva means that resonance. Soul present in the whole body. The body was developed around the Soul. We should take care of the body like it would be a good car. Eating, exercises, and way of thinking are very important. In yoga exercises, there is no competition.

"Kali yuga kevala nāma ādhāra, sumira sumira nara hoi bhava pāra. (In the Kali Yuga, the name alone is the foundation; by repeating, repeating, a person crosses the ocean of existence.)" Swami Maheshwarananda explains that the Kali Yuga is an age dominated by action (karma), but its true foundation is the repetition of God's name, as stated by Tulsidas. He shares a personal memory of his Guru appearing to him at the Strelky ashram and narrates a Puranic story about the sage Vishvamitra to illustrate the supreme value of satsang. The talk emphasizes that diligent spiritual practice (purushartha) is essential, yet liberation comes from anchoring oneself in the divine name. Filming location: Wellington, New Zealand
