Live the life of a Human
0:25 - 0:45 (20 min)
Human life is given for a purpose: to live in harmony, protect all creatures, and ultimately achieve liberation. Life is limited, but the soul continues through many births. This human form is the final step to reach the supreme destination, though the path is demanding. All religions and cultures offer a valid way to the one God, who welcomes all. The destructive force is human ego—pride in position, wealth, or power. These gifts should be used to serve and help others. That service is yoga. Yoga is a lifelong path of balance, encompassing prayer, devotion, and compassionate action. Preserving family, culture, and tradition provides a necessary nest for the human spirit. In the current age, even yogis fall into competition, but yoga itself has none. The practice involves caring for body and mind through postures, breath, and meditation, leading to purification.
"Helping hands have more value than folded hands."

We should reach the goal
0:50 - 1:46 (56 min)
The second step is moving forward from fear with a strong heart through yoga's power. Practice the techniques and be strong. The best meditation is deep, alert sleep, which can become the powerful Yoga Nidrā. Make a firm resolve and walk steadily toward the goal without giving up. Be active in service, cleaning, and working together within the community. This collective work builds a strong foundation. True strength and guidance come from the Guru's grace, which is essential for crossing the ocean of worldly life and attaining liberation.
"The best meditation: go to sleep now. Yes, the best meditation."

Devotion to Gurudev
1:50 - 2:47 (57 min)
The essence of devotion to the spiritual teacher is total surrender and attentive receptivity. A true disciple absorbs every word from the teacher, considering each a divine nectar essential for growth. Questioning the teacher's actions is forbidden, as illustrated by the story of the guru saving a scorpion despite being bitten; each being follows its nature, and the guru follows the dharma of compassion. Even divine incarnations required a teacher, underscoring that a life is incomplete without one. The teacher's grace is everything; without it, the disciple is like a pot with a hole, unable to retain the knowledge being poured in. True devotion is rare, often corrupted by worldly desires for succession or property, not by genuine sorrow at the teacher's passing. The prescribed ritual for the holy day involves fasting, offering items like sandalwood and a garland filled with devotion, washing the teacher's feet, and performing full prostration to seek blessings and forgiveness.
"Guru Kripa hi kevalam, śiṣya ke ānanda maṅgalam."

Chakras and Awakening
2:55 - 3:55 (60 min)
Our subject is Kuṇḍalinī and cakras, the science of body, mind, and soul. First, arrange your space and bring your hands together at the heart, feeling the energy flow. This energy is your own divinity. Kuṇḍalinī awakening is not a physical movement but an awakening in clarity and joy. We exist through layered bodies: the physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and the body of bliss. Major energy centers, or cakras, exist in humans and animals, connecting us to elements like earth. Regular contact with the earth purifies these energies. Self-realization means understanding the self. The soul is one, like a single powerhouse lighting many bulbs. Do not claim a permanent, egoistic self-realization; true oneness is rare and often temporary. Non-duality is the final knowledge that removes the ignorance which creates fear and separation. We must meditate on this oneness.
"Kuṇḍalinī means you are awakened in your clarities, in your knowledge, in your happiness, your joy—not that something in your body is moving."
"The soul is one, so your soul cannot be ill... We are all one soul."

Yoga in Daily Life - exercise program
4:00 - 5:29 (89 min)
A guided practice of deep relaxation, mindful movement, and breath awareness.
Begin by systematically releasing tension from the feet to the face with each exhale. Practice creating and releasing tension in individual limbs, then the whole body, to feel the contrast. Move with slow, deliberate stretches, coordinating each motion with the breath to explore the body's range. Perform gentle spinal twists and core engagements, always moving within a comfortable range without pain. Conclude with focused breathing exercises to purify and calm the nervous system, followed by a period of silent integration.
"Release the entire torso, both arms, the muscles in the neck, and all the muscles in the face as you send the exhale throughout the entire body."
"The exhalation purifies, releases, and frees you from tension."

Yoga and nature is one
5:35 - 6:02 (27 min)
Yoga is the science of humans and a natural way of life. Its first principle is vegetation, which is Āyurveda, an ancient medicine from the Yugas. Modern medicine, while life-saving, is chemical and not fully accepted by the natural body, unlike remedies from plants. Our way of eating has been lost, and white sugar is a major cause of disease. The tongue enslaves us to taste, leading to illness. Āyurveda encompasses diet and was once so advanced it included surgeries like those on the brain. Yoga is not acrobatics; it is a scientific system for a long, healthy life. Many practice it incorrectly, which can cause harm. True yoga involves physical exercise, breathing, concentration, and meditation. We are all God, and our actions determine our fate. The practice should be shared freely for community health.
"Yoga is the science of humans. Yoga is a natural way of life."

The Science of Kuṇḍalinī and Cakras
6:05 - 6:50 (45 min)
The science of kuṇḍalinī and cakras is the definitive path to the highest consciousness, requiring a genuine guru from a true lineage. This knowledge is endless and encompasses all yoga practices. The deities and stories are symbolic representations of this inner science, not literal. For instance, the tale of Kṛṣṇa and the gopīs symbolizes that the human body is a divine gift; without spiritual practice, one loses this "dress" and is reborn in an animal form. Another story of Viṣṇu and Lakṣmī tests a devotee's greed, showing that worldly prosperity can distract from true devotion. These are teaching tools. Kuṇḍalinī is not about sexuality; tantra rightly means expanding consciousness to liberate oneself. All reality exists within the human body and being.
"Kṛṣṇa did not take that dress away. That dress is His skin."
"Tan means expand. And 'trā' means 'to liberate.' Expand your consciousness."

A Divine Call and the Search for a True Guru
7:30 - 8:18 (48 min)
A divine call initiates the search for a true guru. A vision of Śrī Kṛṣṇa repeatedly requests kheer, compelling its preparation for a visiting saint's gathering. At that satsaṅg, the saint addresses a devotee by name, revealing profound awareness. When asked if one has a guru, the answer emerges from the heart: one is seeking a true guru. Following given addresses leads to an ashram in India. There, a phrase is heard in sleep: "There is nothing in the jīva, but go to the nitya." Travel continues to another ashram to meet the holy guru. An overwhelming energy is received upon meeting. A book is offered, and through grace, the ability to read Hindi is granted. Mantra-dīkṣā is received on a Thursday after offering fruit. Disregarding advice on travel days leads to immediate difficulties, demonstrating the importance of the guru's word. Returning home brings incessant tears and a longing for the ashram. The guru's loving permission allows return. Translations of sacred texts are undertaken as service, a gift enabled by the guru. Further travels and stays in ashrams follow, filled with divine experiences, protective grace, and deep seva. The guru's presence is ultimately felt permanently within the heart.
"Have you got a guru? I have not got a guru, but I am looking for a true guru."

9:30 - 10:23 (53 min)
The path of sādhanā leads to liberation. Practice sādhanā with love for the Divine. The first sādhanā is discrimination between the real and unreal. The second is dispassion for worldly enjoyments. The third is the sixfold virtues like tranquility and faith. The fourth is the intense desire for liberation. By this practice, one attains mokṣa. The Guru is the source of all grace and is eternally present within the heart. One must open oneself to receive this guidance. The world is a transient illusion, yet the Guru's blessings make everything possible.
"Practice sādhanā with love for Hari; through that, your liberation will be."
"Without Gurudev’s blessings, nothing in this world is possible."

The Sun Shines in the Kingdom of God: On Habit, Mind, and the Kośas
10:30 - 11:21 (51 min)
Yoga in daily life is the ever-shining sun, present everywhere. The program begins with purifying the body's impurities. Habit becomes one's second nature. A story illustrates this: a man jumps into a river to retrieve a coat, which is actually a bear. The bear catches him. The man wishes to leave the coat, but the coat does not leave him. This is the condition of dependency. People find time for negative habits but claim to have no time for meditation or good deeds. The mind is a reflection, like a face in a mirror; one cleans the mirror, but the spot is on the face. The mind must be corrected through techniques, good society, and meditation. The five sheaths of the being are the body of nourishment, energy, mind, intellect, and bliss. Liberation comes from mastering the mind, attachment, hope, and thirst. Give charity without expectation of return. This is the science of yoga for body, mind, and soul.
"Habit is the second nature of the human."
"Man marā na mamatā marī—your desires, what you want to have."

How could we live a happy life

Morning satsang from Yoga Summer Retreat from Vep, Hungary. Logo and uniform are important. Our colour is a golden, colour of Ganesha and Krishna too. Yoga practising and meditation will change the new generation in the world. The wold needs to love no war. Mantras destroy many illnesses. All religion is a sector. Gayatri mantra is very good to chains when the sun is rising. In Asia girls praying with her mother for a good husband. Beauty is in the heart and in the soul. Many nerves and many bones disappear during our life. The prana is energy, it is God. If zótgere is prana in the body there is life also. We should not destroy the prana of the animals. Not easy to go away from the human body. The graveyard is a very holy place.
In the end everything will be counted
12:20 - 13:15 (55 min)
Yoga is a science for human well-being. Observing practitioners during the pandemic revealed that those maintaining a vegetarian lifestyle within a specific community were largely unaffected, unlike many general yoga practitioners. This points to lifestyle's role in health. Yoga's techniques, like Brahmari Prāṇāyāma, are often derived from nature. This practice uses a humming breath to create internal vibrations, addressing issues like headaches and tension. It requires correct posture and breath from the navel. Practice is foundational, but yoga extends beyond physical techniques to a deeper connection within. The true guide removes obstacles, allowing inner potential to unfold, and does not claim the role of doer.
"Those who were not eating eggs, meat, alcohol, drugs, etc., they were not affected."
"Brahmari Prāṇāyāma affects the whole body. The inner vibration can restore the health of the body itself."

Believe or don't believe
13:20 - 14:11 (51 min)
The human form embodies a duality of potential, represented by our two hands. One hand bestows blessings, while the other wields destructive power. We need God, but God does not need us. A story illustrates this: a demon asked Shiva for the power to burn anyone he touched. Shiva granted it. The demon then sought to test this power on Shiva himself, forcing Shiva to flee. This shows the danger inherent in such power. Our hands can offer nourishment or violence, just as our eyes perceive but can also deceive. Every part of the body holds this dual capacity. Therefore, one must practice awareness and choose the path of blessing, humility, and non-violence. The techniques for transcendence are within the human body, but they require purity of action and intention.

Karma yoga means serving
14:15 - 14:55 (40 min)
Karma yoga is the path of selfless service, the essence of spiritual practice. We gather in nature for sādhana, observing the world's beauty and ceremonies. The groups include those dedicated to seva, the karma yogīs. This practice is found in all religions, like nuns serving the poor, for God resides in everyone. Service is not only grand donations; it is the simple, mindful act of helping. Even in traffic, allowing another driver to pass is seva. Helping an elder with a bag or moving a creature from danger is seva. But one must serve with wisdom, understanding the true need. Action performed skillfully and selflessly is the foundation of yoga. All prayers and meditations are secondary to this. You always have time for seva in thought, word, and deed.
"Who can serve the poor people, the needy people? There is maybe God inside."
"Yogaḥ karmasu kauśalam. Yoga will be successful through the sādhanā, the karma sādhanā."

Yoga in Daily Life: Health Promotion in the Czech Republic
15:10 - 15:23 (13 min)
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."

Clean yourself to become a saint
15:30 - 16:25 (55 min)
True spiritual life is found in selfless service and genuine renunciation, not in titles or appearances. Many claim to be yogis or sannyasis but avoid humble work, seeking only respect and comfort. Real seva means cleaning and serving all without distinction, not just performing rituals. Renunciation is not about wearing orange robes but about inwardly letting go of all possessions and desires. A true seeker serves quietly, like cleaning toilets, without expectation. Theoretical knowledge is useless without this practical humility. Freedom is internal, beyond politics and borders, found in simplicity and unity.
"Guru Sevā means not that you already, 'I am sitting there in my room,'... guru seva means you make a seva of all my disciples."

The master bestows the nectar of immortality, liberating one from the cycle of life and death. According to eternal law, the master takes form to revive those trapped in mortality. This gift of immortality and bliss is understood within. Without fortunate destiny, one cannot attain this connection. That link is found in human birth, granting freedom from bondage and making one liberated while still living. The true master constantly dwells without attachment, and the disciple bathes in that light daily.

The Guru, mantra, and spiritual practice are essential in Kali Yuga. This age is marked by anger and disease globally. Those following a sattvic diet and yoga practice remained healthy, as research shows. The science of yoga provides protection. Mantra practice is paramount, and the mantra given by one's Guru is fundamental. The Guru's word is the true essence, not the physical form. One must not seek a second initiating guru, though one may listen to all saints. All life originates from the same source, like drops from one ocean. Spiritual progress requires meditation, mantra, and adherence to the Guru's word.

19:50 - 20:33 (43 min)
The sun of life and the honey of purity illuminate the path. All spiritual practice is devotion to the divine, beyond divisions of country or religion. The human form is equal, and love must extend to all creatures. Substances like alcohol can be medicine or poison depending on use and knowledge, just as sectarian views of God create division where unity exists. The sun is always present, just as the inner sun of life exists in all beings, seeking joy. Following guidance prevents suffering. Human desire, unlike animals, is endless; action should protect all life. Negative thinking creates suffering, while purity, like pure honey that does not cling, is essential. The heart and body will pass, but one should remain in joy and purity, allowing impurities to fall away.
"Arguing over whose God is best creates big problems. If it is like that, then we are not for that highest, supreme reality, where all gods are one."
"Pure honey, when it drips, does not stick. If it is not real honey but just from sugar, it will stick. This is the difference."
