Devotion to Gurudev
0:45 - 1:42 (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."

Be patient and faithful
1:50 - 2:48 (58 min)
True learning requires patience, reverence for the source, and inner focus. The current global pause invites turning inward to ask fundamental questions of identity and purpose. Withdrawing the senses is the primary meditation; using a mala with mantra is a valid secondary method that fosters oneness. Singing bhajans is learning, but one must always credit the original composer, as failing to do so is theft and creates nonsense. Do not believe all knowledge is already taken; like butter from a cow, true insight is perpetually renewed if you tend to the source. Education, like yoga, cannot be rushed. A child learns through gradual stages and requires play to refresh the mind. A student must fully absorb one lesson before teaching another. A pilot trains for years, trusting instruments to land safely; similarly, a disciple must practice diligently under guidance, not seeking quick results. Learning is embedding knowledge within, not merely reading.
"If you eat the butter, what will happen? The cow is with me. Feed the cow with good, and you will again take the milk, and you have the butter again."
"Do not think that I cannot do more. We are here within, and that is the makhan of our knowledge, and that will be fresh."

Bari Khathu Pranam improves the immunity
2:55 - 3:53 (58 min)
Coronavirus concerns everyone globally. It can be present without symptoms. Stay home if you have fever, headache, sore throat, or chills until symptom-free for 48 hours. The virus primarily attacks lung tissue, hindering oxygen exchange. Transmission occurs through moist respiratory particles expelled when speaking, coughing, or sneezing, traveling one to one and a half meters normally. Masks are crucial to contain these particles. Hand sanitizer, soap, and surface disinfection destroy the virus's outer layer. Most infected individuals do not require intensive care; the elderly and those with pre-existing conditions are most vulnerable. Strengthening overall health through proper sleep and yoga supports the immune system. Persist with protective measures like masks, distance, and hygiene.
"The problem is we become tired of wearing the mask, but it is very cheap insurance for our life, our families, and all of humanity."
"Exercises strengthen the immune system, which yoga does very well."

Practicing of the system 'Yoga in Daily Life', Level 2 - Part 2
4:00 - 5:11 (71 min)
The practice of Yoga in Daily Life continues systematically from Level Two, beginning with relaxation and progressing through specific āsanas and prāṇāyāma. A session starts with three Oṁ chants and deep relaxation in Ānanda Āsana, consciously releasing tension from toes to forehead. The full yoga breath is practiced, coordinating a three-part wave with movement. The āsana sequence includes Meru Pṛṣṭhāsana for spinal flexibility and energy, Catuṣpada Āsana for stretching and organ function, and Cakrāsana for posture and digestion. Each posture is performed with attention to breath, comfort, and the resulting physical and energetic effects. The practice concludes with prāṇāyāma to balance breath channels and a meditation preparation, ending with chants for peace.
"Āsana means, except for other meanings, also comfortable. So āsana should be a comfortable position."
"After exhalation, try to feel the complete relaxation of all the muscles and the inner peace, and stop all the movements in your body."

Clean yourself to become a saint
5:15 - 6:10 (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."

How could we live a happy life
6:15 - 7:06 (51 min)
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.
Use it, or you will lose it
7:10 - 7:56 (46 min)
The horizon of being is the ultimate spiritual goal of becoming one with infinite space. Humans possess intellect but require a teacher to guide them beyond worldly knowledge. All beings follow divine instinct, yet humans become distracted by transient forms like changing hair color or accumulating wealth. Life cycles like a tree's leaves, emerging and falling, with essence continually reborn in new forms. The horizon appears as a mirage, always receding as one approaches, symbolizing the elusive nature of enlightenment. True realization is merging into boundless space where all dualities cease. Spiritual practice is essential; inner wisdom must be used or it is lost. The guru is the essential guide to this liberation.

Be with your Guru
8:00 - 9:15 (75 min)
The essence of spiritual attainment rests solely upon the Satguru's grace. Without the Satguru, no task is accomplished. However many millions of methods one may try, one cannot cross the ocean of worldly existence. Pilgrimages, fasts, and penances are insufficient without the Guru's knowledge. The true wealth is the worship of the Guru. Liberation comes only through surrender of body and mind. The Satguru's blessing is an eternal rain that nourishes devotion where divine efforts fall short. Spiritual practice requires the direct transmission from a true master. Satsang is communion with truth. Modern external gatherings often become distractions, lacking the authentic vibration found only in a genuine lineage. Yoga is universal but must be rooted in the knowledge given by a realized guru from an unbroken tradition.
"Without the Satguru, no work is accomplished."
"Surrender body and mind before the Guru."

9:20 - 10:16 (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.

Guru is only one
10:20 - 11:10 (50 min)
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.
"Only one guru you have, your guru."

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."

The Science of Kuṇḍalinī and Cakras
12:15 - 13:00 (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."

13:05 - 13:58 (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.

Believe or don't believe
14:05 - 14:56 (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.

The Silent Revolution: Yoga as the Antidote to Mind Pollution and Failed Leadership
15:00 - 15:23 (23 min)
We need a silent revolution in leadership and consciousness. Old models have failed, creating crisis. Leaders are overwhelmed, lack self-awareness, and cannot inspire, leaving people disengaged. The solution is changing leaders. We are entering a cognitive age where mind care is paramount. Control your thoughts, for they become your destiny. Media exaggerates violence; data shows heart disease and cancer are far greater threats. The real danger is mind pollution—the poisoning of our minds. Yoga is for non-violence and peace. It is a systematic science for mastering the mind and achieving inner peace. A peaceful society guarantees the right to self-realization. Yoga accelerates human growth and is vital for well-being and social harmony. We must go public, integrate yoga into all education and leadership training, and promote it globally.
"Control your thoughts, for they trigger your emotions and feelings. Control your emotions, for they become your words."

Always be positive
15:30 - 16:13 (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."

Shiva tried to give immortality to Parvati
17:00 - 17:46 (46 min)
The divine union of Śiva and Śakti is the fundamental cosmic principle. All beings originate from the Cosmic, with the soul or God within. The inner self, the Ātmā, is equal in all, male or female. Historically, women were denied spiritual respect, but now equality is recognized. The teaching "Mātṛ Devo Bhava" establishes the mother as the first object of reverence, followed by the father, teacher, and guru. Creation requires both masculine and feminine principles. Śiva, initially whole, contains Śakti within, manifesting as the androgynous Ardhanārīśvara. A story illustrates their inseparability: when the goddess Satī died, Śiva carried her body in grief. To restore cosmic balance, Viṣṇu used the Sudarśana Cakra to dismember the form, creating the sacred Śakti Pīṭhas. Later, Pārvatī sought immortality from Śiva through a night-long mantra, but she fell asleep, and a parrot overheard the secret. This unity exists within each person; husband and wife should be one as Śiva and Śakti are one. Practice purity and non-violence, recognizing the divine in all. Worship leads to the cosmic; otherwise, one remains unfulfilled.

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.

The real disciple
18:00 - 18:39 (39 min)
The essence of Sanātana Dharma is Śaṅkarācārya, who restored truth from a young age. He sought to become a sannyāsī despite his mother's initial refusal, later fulfilling his promise to perform her funeral rites against convention. He established four monasteries across India, providing different spiritual paths for different natures. Becoming a true disciple requires immense dedication, as illustrated by the tale of Upamanyu. The young boy endured severe tests from his guru, including starvation, blindness, and falling into a well, yet maintained his devotion. His unwavering faith ultimately invoked divine vision and strength. Modern disciples often lack such steadfastness, distracted by the temptations of the current age.

Everything is yoga
18:45 - 19:15 (30 min)
The individual soul is the same in all beings, from human to ant. The ocean and a drop from it are not separate; the drop is the ocean. All beings pass through one door, not separate doors for different religions or species. Heaven and hell are dualities within coming and going, but Sanatana Dharma is the eternal principle, with Śiva as its source, having no familial relations. God is within each soul. Humans have created many religious forms, but there is only one God. The living guru is a principle beyond the deities Śiva, Brahmā, and Viṣṇu. Yoga originates from Śiva, encompassing postures and the unity of all action. The roots of this knowledge lie with the eternal Saptaṛṣis. Ultimately, space, consciousness, and all elements arise from and are controlled within Śiva.

Yoga and nature is one
19:20 - 19:47 (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.

Chakras and Awakening
19:55 - 20:55 (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."
