Spiritual message of ancient India
0:30 - 1:34 (64 min)
The essence of spiritual tradition is the living Gurukul, where disciples learn from and support their master. Ancient paths like yoga, Jainism, and Buddhism emphasized pure, strict spiritual practice. Jain monks lived with extreme discipline, walking barefoot, not cooking, and minimizing harm to all creatures. Buddha embodied supreme knowledge, having renounced his kingdom. These traditions, alongside the ancient Sanātana Dharma revived by Śaṅkarācārya, shared a foundation of non-violence and high spiritual ideals. Centers of learning like Nālandā University, with its vast library, were destroyed by invaders who feared this knowledge. The widespread system was the Gurukul, a residential school where students lived with their guru. The true Gurukul is not merely a place but the living master. Being in this presence allows disciples to experience a bliss beyond ordinary yoga classes. This connection provides a tangible touchstone for the spiritual path, which is climbed step by step, reducing suffering and increasing purity each day. The ethical duty is to be compassionate towards the miserable and neutral towards the negative, protecting one's own spirituality.
"Buddha means knowledge, all knowledge from past, present, and future."
"I am myself Gurukul."

What Guru Purnima means?
6:25 - 7:15 (50 min)
The essence of Guru Pūrṇimā is honoring the principle of the teacher. The Guru is supreme, even above the divine trinity. Anything that imparts knowledge is a guru, from parents to animals. The true Satguru does not proclaim the title; it is received. The guru paramparā, the lineage, flows from Śiva through successive masters. A sannyāsī leaves the family yet has a duty to help all. One must work in the world while following spiritual practice. The guru gives the disciple a key, a staff, and a duty. Guru Pūrṇimā is the full moon, representing completeness. We worship the guru to become complete.
"Gurur Brahmā, Gurur Viṣṇu, Gurur Devo Maheśvara, Gurur Sākṣāt Parabrahmā."
"A true Satguru will not say, 'I am the Satguru.'"

Instructions for successful kriyja anusthan
7:20 - 7:53 (33 min)
The foundations of a healthy life are found in yoga, astrology, and proper nourishment. We live in Kali Yuga, a time foretold in scripture. Jyotiṣa, or Vedic astrology, is a precise science of constellations that determines our nature from birth, influencing health, marriage, and life path. Yoga aligns with these constellations. Practice involves physical exercises, breath control, and mental relaxation for lifelong health, but must be personalized. Nourishment is equally critical; we must be mindful of what, when, and how much we eat and drink. Various medical systems exist, like Āyurveda and allopathy, each with its approach. True well-being integrates disciplined practice, suitable nourishment, and spiritual awareness, using our God-given faculties to choose our path wisely.
"Jyotiṣa asks, 'What is that which is 100% sure?'"
"True beauty is the heart, the feelings, and the match together."

Proudness
8:00 - 8:52 (52 min)
The ego of a devotee is cured by divine grace through humility. Even great beings can develop pride in their service. Hanumān once believed Rāma's victory depended entirely on him. Earlier, Garuḍa also lost faith after rescuing Rāma from a snake-arrow, thinking God needed his help. Garuḍa, in despair, was told only the crow-sage Kakabhuśuṇḍī could cure him. As Garuḍa approached, hearing the sage's discourse restored his devotion, and he saw even the gods listening. To cure Hanumān's pride, Rāma sent him to deliver a ring to a sage in the Himalayas. The sage told Hanumān to throw it into a pond, which was filled with identical rings from every divine incarnation. Hanumān then understood his role was not unique but part of an eternal cycle, curing his ego.
"Hanumānjī became proud. He thought, 'If I were not, Rāma would not be successful.'"
"Hanumān, don’t be proud. Don’t think that through your help, Rāma was victorious... It was a test for you."

We should help
8:55 - 9:40 (45 min)
Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. We, humans, learned a lot but we are not immortal. Rakshasas have so much power and they would like to be immortal. Atma is immortal and can reside in the Brahmaloka, but the physical body will dissolve again. We are meditating in our minds. Some doing puja and worshipping God because of fear, or because of some interest. With prayer, we can balance human powers. Ashram means: come and be here. It is for all, we should help, help, and help. Let's come to the supreme consciousness within.
People are good everywhere in the world
9:00 - 10:02 (62 min)
Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. We have an international organization and very many ver very good and friendly people we are. But one drop of lemon can destroy the whole cup of milk. The story of Vishwaguruji and a Czechoslovakian ambassador and his family to take a trip in Algeria and their adventures there. We should respect everybody and every different culture. For long years we have got very much knowledge and spirituality through our yoga life. We have many great Swamis and many spiritually developed people. The story of Swami Hridayakamal in Fiji and in other countries. We should become free from attachment. Many people is born in different countries from their origin but it is good because in the end we also go to one place.
The door of the Guru
9:45 - 10:31 (46 min)
Compassion and the Guru's grace are the path beyond the solitary journey of the soul. We must move beyond "I" and "mine" to give the essential gift: food to all hungry creatures, giving life. Many in India exemplify this, uniting to serve. The Sikh tradition shows profound reverence, treating their holy book as the living Guru and welcoming all to eat. This spirit of unconditional giving exists worldwide in various faiths. Religions should feed and welcome all without demanding conversion. At life's end, we depart alone; all possessions and relationships remain. The soul, immaterial, passes on. Yama's noose is inevitable, and we are caught in the endless cycle of rebirth, suffering in samsara. Only by taking refuge in the Satguru and through the Guru's grace can we find liberation from this cycle. Without it, one falls back into the myriad life forms. Therefore, surrender completely at the Guru's door.

The value of Satsang
10:35 - 11:20 (45 min)
The great mantra is Hari Om, where Om is Hari and Hari is Om, signifying the unity of Vishnu with the primordial sound. The mantra AUM contains the three tattvas of Brahmā, Śiva, and Viṣṇu within its resonance. From the original void emerged this sound, from which light and the deities appeared. The earth was brought from the cosmic waters and is now sustained by Śeṣanāga, the thousand-headed snake upon whom Viṣṇu resides. Human exploitation risks the earth sinking back. Spiritual practice is essential but difficult, as illustrated by the sage Viśvāmitra, who performed tapasyā for 72,000 years yet was plagued by ego. He sought the title of Maharṣi from Vasiṣṭha, leading to conflict. Upon hearing Vasiṣṭha praise the beautiful night and indirectly address him as "Maharṣi," Viśvāmitra repented, offering the fruits of his 72,000-year sādhanā. Vasiṣṭha offered instead the fruit of one minute of satsaṅg. To judge which was greater, they were directed to Śeṣanāga. He demonstrated that the earth, unmoved by the 72,000 years of tapasyā, rose up for the one minute of satsaṅg. Thus, devotion surpasses prolonged practice. All earthquakes are from Śeṣanāga's movements. The essence of all scriptures is that giving happiness brings happiness, and causing trouble brings trouble. Purification through sādhanā is the purpose of human life to reach liberation.
"Are you blind? You don't see the judgment? For one minute of satsaṅg, the whole earth raised up, and when it was 72,000 sādhanās, that was not moving."
"If you give pleasant to all... you will get the sukha. If you are giving troubles to others, you will also get a trouble."

Vegetarian food is good for prevention against covid
11:25 - 12:11 (46 min)
Good evening. We had a beautiful day of practice. Tomorrow, you will have a free half-day after breakfast to walk in the forest in groups. Otherwise, do your own exercises. Integrate the lectures and practices into your heart and mind. The trees here give great energy; breathe deeply. The food here contains prāṇa. We should eat food that makes the body healthy, happy, and pure. Our gathering is limited in size, but it allows a relaxed feeling without daily chores. A study was shared involving over 7,000 participants across six countries. It found those on plant-based diets at least one year prior had less severe COVID-19 outcomes. This shows vegetarianism is good for health, the environment, and humanity. True yoga practice includes a vegetarian diet, avoiding alcohol and meat, fostering peace and love for all creatures.

Every drop will merge with the ocean
12:15 - 13:02 (47 min)
Devotion manifests through humble service, not through the ego's claim of action. In the story of the bridge, all creatures contributed according to their capacity; the divine's direct intervention sank the stones, teaching that grace flows through surrendered work, not personal ownership. The physical space here is sanctified by the presence of a great guru, whose power remains. His instruction for a shared Guru Pūrṇimā was a direct transmission of grace. The essence of all true teachings is humility and universality. The sun shines for all; possessive identification with "my guru" or "my God" is a limited, human construct. Great beings like Rāma and Jesus exemplified this humility. Spiritual practice aims to merge the individual drop into the ocean of purity, where all impurities are cleansed. The path requires looking beyond immediate obstacles toward the vast horizon of unity. The final test is always compassion, as shown when Yudhiṣṭhira refused heaven without his loyal dog. Our collective sitting in satsaṅg generates this unifying energy, which is the real practice beyond mere technique.

I am one and you are all
13:10 - 13:49 (39 min)
The present moment is our true home, beyond past and future. The past is completely gone and dwelling on it holds nothing for us. The future remains unknown. We are here now, in this peaceful and harmonious present. We gather from many distant places, drawn by a shared intention, not by logistical concerns. This ashram is a holy place, connected to a lineage of teachers. The essence is oneness: we are all one, and the One is in all. Our practice must balance discipline with compassion for the body. Love your body as your dearest instrument. If a posture causes pain, adjust it comfortably. The practice of mantra and meditation should flow naturally, like a mala moving on its own. Our spiritual practice is a lifelong journey, as constant as the breath, continuing until the very end. Ultimately, we must enjoy life, be good, and remain happy and united.

Om Ashram

A large-scale world peace monument shaped as the universal Oṃ symbol is being built. Since 1993, this structure has served humanity by teaching yoga, meditation, and philosophy to preserve Vedic wisdom. It will contain 108 residential compartments for visitors and students. The design originated from a yogi's vision, who developed the "Yoga in Daily Life" system for holistic health, now practiced globally. The site already functions as an active center with a free school, a college, and a hospital. To heal the local ecosystem, an artificial lake harvests monsoon rain, raising groundwater. Worldwide projects protect animals and plant millions of trees. This non-profit mission, born from one heart's vision, advocates for universal non-violence and protection for all cultures and creatures. Its full fruition requires everyone's contribution.

A Student's Gratitude and Svāmījī's Discourse on the Pandemic
14:00 - 14:58 (58 min)
Being a student provides a transformative perspective, seeing the Divine behind outer life. This knowledge frees one from being trapped by external conditions. Practice is both inward and an outward service to others. Chanting mantras with intention generates a powerful vibration that reaches and helps the world. The community remained unafraid, trusting the divine power that radiates outward when lived. Obstacles arise for learning, to be observed and dissolved. The current age is one of pain and difficulty, affecting all life. The pandemic stems from collective human pain, modern chemicals, and the treatment of animals, returning as karmic consequence. True health comes from disciplined living, proper diet, and the integration of yoga into daily life, not from harmful consumption. The Self, the Ātman within, is God. Meditation is returning to this inner Self, not seeking outside. One must be alert, for the body is a temporary home; only the soul is eternal.
"Perhaps we have had a little more time for introspection and our practices."
"I believe this illness has come from the pain, and we have created all of this."

There is nothing higher than the Guru
15:05 - 15:48 (43 min)
The Guru is the supreme principle, greater than all gods. Even divine incarnations like Rāma and Kṛṣṇa had gurus and attended school, upholding this principle. God is one and present in every grain and cell, yet to know this and understand how to live and work, one needs the guru. The guru is not merely a physical body but the eternal name and the imparting source of all knowledge, from spiritual wisdom to practical skills like riding a horse. Without a guru, there is no progress; even perfect students require a teacher for certification. The guru principle is the highest authority, to which even Śiva, Viṣṇu, and Brahmā are subordinate. A true Satguru is complete Brahman, the source from which all completeness arises. Those who fail to recognize the real Satguru suffer through ages, while the guru's grace can transform poison into nectar. The guru may appear in humble forms, like a hardworking parent, not only in meditation. Ultimately, one must surrender fully to the guru.
"Who is greater than Bhagavān Rāma and Kṛṣṇa? They too must have a guru."
"Guru Brahma, Guru Viṣṇu, Guru Devo Maheśvarāha, Guru Sākṣāt Parabrahma, Tasmai Śrī Guru Ve Namaḥa."

Our children are very spiritual
15:55 - 16:48 (53 min)
Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Children are very disciplined during the programs because their parents educated them towards spirituality. Vishwaguruji teaches many generations of yoga people. Sri Devpuriji appeared in some places at the same time. Holiguruji told many stories to Visheówaguruji in his childhood about Devpuriji and Mahaprabuji. Vishwaguruji realized the prediction of Devpuriji. We don't know where the seed will grow. Reading holy books every day new knowledge comes. The story of an Indian man who issued a newspaper in India and travelled with Viwshwaguruji in Europe. Knowledge takes the human healthy and happy. We should give further the knowledge of our forefathers to our children. The first university was in India. There were very many books but Muslims burnt them. God gives eating everybody in the world. Little more information about the first university in the world was in India.
The Sound Of Creation
16:55 - 17:45 (50 min)
Swamiji's World peace tour, Wellington, NZ. All creation in the whole Universe took place through vibration. The form of the Supreme is sound. It is the vibration which awoke the consciousness in the Universe. It is that resonance which brought conscious and matter, cosmic conscious and divine Shakti together. The elements were created through sound and manifestation took place. Through sound are we existing. Our body and every organ has its own sound. It is the sound of the Self. So Ham, I am that - that I am. It means the presence of the Supreme. I am the light of that God and that God is in me as the light, I am in Him as light and there is no duality. A meditation, guided by Swamiji, is the practical part of the program.
We all should get oneness
17:00 - 17:16 (16 min)
The language of oneness transcends spoken words. Many scriptures and languages exist, yet spirituality reveals a universal oneness. We learn through gaze and feeling, not just vocabulary. The best language is understood by all, like music or song, where sound vibration creates unity. We do not know God's name or voice, but in our heart, all humans know there is some God. Even saying "no God" speaks to that understanding. Language is only the outer side; the feeling is the true language. When words fail, we understand through hands, eyes, and silence. From life's mixture, we seek purity and oneness. In a hall, a little stone can represent the silence that unites us. This silentness is oneness. In contrast, a noisy festival is different. You are happy and need nothing.
"The best language is when people from many countries, each with their own language, suddenly all understand."
"In our heart, all humans know there is some God."

In the morning we should think first that we are human. It means I should not do wrong things for others. Nidra means half sleep and half awaken. There are three statuses aware sleep and dream. When you drive a car you have to be always awakened. In yoga nidra there are all three situations. We came from the earth we live in the earth and we shall go to the earth.
