What means sanyas diksha
0:00 - 1:29 (89 min)
Recorded on
The path to sannyāsa is a profound spiritual commitment requiring total surrender and purification. It is a rare attainment, the culmination of many lifetimes of seeking. One must give up all attachments—to family, home, and worldly identity—as this separation is difficult, like a nation leaving a union. The orange cloth is not mere fabric; it symbolizes the skin and blood of one's dedication to reach the highest realms. True realization comes from the heart, where the divine resides, as shown by Hanuman. Seva, selfless service, is essential. The initiation involves rigorous rituals: cleansing the body with sacred substances like cow dung and ash, culminating in the guru cutting the śikhā, severing attachment to the physical world. It is not an easy path, but one of continuous inner cleaning to realize the Self. "Where is your Rāma and Sītā? He said, 'It is in my heart.'" "The most important and the jewel of all mantras is the guru mantra." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

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." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Be with your Guru
2:40 - 3:55 (75 min)
Recorded on
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."

The real disciple
5:15 - 5:54 (39 min)
Recorded on
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. "Mother, I will be there for you, but I must also go forth to restore reality and truth." "Gurudev, I cannot eat without first offering food to someone." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Kriya for opening to knowledge
6:00 - 6:48 (48 min)
Recorded on
The practice of mantra and mudrā purifies the chakras and cultivates divine speech. Chant the Mahāmṛtyuñjaya mantra to awaken energy and concentration. A specific hand mudrā channels a flow like a sacred river, bringing calmness. The mantra seeks nectar for the tongue, meaning speech should be humble, kind, and sweet. This connects to social education. The throat chakra holds the seed of Sarasvatī, producing divine sound. Speech manifests through three levels: parā, paśyantī, and vaikharī. These correspond to centers of feeling, manifestation, and formulation. Mastering them leads to excellent speech. A subsequent mudrā involves touching specific centers to create a powerful circulation of energy. This practice removes anxiety, brings calm, and opens knowledge. "May my every word be like sweet honey." "Whoever has good, excellent speech is said to have Sarasvatī on their throat." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Use it, or you will lose it
6:55 - 7:41 (46 min)
Recorded on
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. "Use it or lose it." "As far as I come close to that element, it goes that further." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Clean yourself to become a saint
7:45 - 8:40 (55 min)
Recorded on
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." "Tyāga, tyāga... When there is no tyāga, then you are inside like this." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Everything is yoga
8:45 - 9:15 (30 min)
Recorded on
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. "Anywhere, that drop is the ocean." "Yoga means what we are doing."

The refuge lies at the divine feet. By taking refuge there, one experiences supreme truth and bliss, becoming free from the cycle of birth and death. The mind finds its steady path. The Vedas and Puranas sing of this refuge. True devotion and knowledge lead to liberation. The divine name itself brings supreme happiness. The true Guru is incomparable.

Go to the Satsang
10:45 - 11:36 (51 min)
Recorded on
Satsaṅg is the company of truth and spiritual association, while kusaṅg is negative company. A disciple wished to attend a festival, but his Gurujī gave him a peacock feather to view the crowd. Through it, he saw the gathering as a mass of fighting animals, except for a small group who remained human in appearance. He realized the crowd's internal qualities were base, though their external forms were human. He immediately returned to the pure company of his teacher. The body may appear human, but the inner quality defines one's nature. Therefore, seek satsaṅg. Do not outwardly declare others as not good, but regard all with good heart and thought. Positive energy may then flow, potentially leading them to good company in time. "Through the feather, he saw only animals in the crowd, but when he looked without it, they appeared as humans." "Therefore, satsaṅg. Satsaṅg is good things." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
We should help
11:40 - 12:25 (45 min)
Recorded on
The human condition is defined by ignorance and a futile pursuit of immortality within the physical form. Humans possess great arrogance and technical skill but remain confined by the body and its elemental nature. Even deities are subject to change, and no being in a physical form can be granted immortality. True immortality exists only beyond the five elements, as the soul or Ātmā. Human life is consumed by fear, desire, and material accumulation, which creates suffering and severs connection from righteousness. Modern society exacerbates greed and hardship, distancing people from dharma and spiritual truth. The soul is eternal but trapped and unhappy within the physical body; liberation comes when it departs and merges with the universal consciousness, like a drop returning to the ocean. "Immortality is when you are not in the physical body." "The soul is in our body, and the soul is not happy, but our body doesn’t want to let go." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Always be positive
12:30 - 13:13 (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." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Don't ask anything from God

Purification and faith are essential for spiritual and physical well-being. Many suffer, seeking solutions. True practice requires internal and external cleansing before approaching the divine. Merely asking for favors is incorrect; one must first purify body, thought, and energy. Rituals like bathing and mantra are medicinal powers, but their efficacy depends on sincere preparation. Sleep expels necessary negative energies, leaving one sluggish until purified by morning rites. Belief manifests in one's entire being, not in requests. Impurities within are vast, requiring constant work through practice, not laziness. Lead with thoughts of peace and kindness to become healthy. "Have you cleaned your body? Have you cleaned your thoughts? Have you cleaned your thinking?" "Believe, belief is the belief. It’s your problem if you believe confidence, then in your whole energy in the body, the whole organs in our body, our heart, our eyes, our mood, our words, our ears, many things, and then we bow down."

Begin the practice of āsanas, prāṇāyāma, and meditation. Close the eyes and attune to the practice. Scan and relax the entire body. Observe the complete yogic breath. The first āsana is Ānanda Āsana, the posture of relaxation. Lie down comfortably and consciously relax each part of the body. Physical relaxation leads to spiritual relaxation. This posture must be performed at the beginning and end of every session. Next, train in abdominal breathing by placing a hand on the abdomen and observing its movement. Conscious abdominal breathing leads to relaxation and improves circulation. Practice stretching the body by extending the limbs in rhythm with the breath. This releases accumulated tension. Perform head turns and twists while lying down to increase spinal mobility and harmonize the breath. Always observe the effect of each exercise. Move through shoulder exercises while standing to relax and strengthen the joints. Shift body weight from leg to leg to strengthen muscles and improve balance. Conclude by returning to Ānanda Āsana. Scan the body and observe the deepening relaxation. Gradually conclude the practice by moving the fingers and toes. Rise carefully, always moving from lying down through a transitional seated position. "Physical relaxation leads to spiritual relaxation." "Conscious abdominal breathing leads to physical and spiritual relaxation." Filming location: UK

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." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

17:15 - 17:34 (19 min)

Worldly joy is fleeting and contains hidden sorrow, but divine joy is endless. Human happiness is brief and intertwined with suffering, for every gain conceals equal or greater pain. Only the Supreme One's joy is boundless. An incarnate liberator provides a living refuge beyond scriptures. Merely reading teachings without following them brings no solution. True peace is found not in escape but in unwavering devotion to that divine source. "Blessed is the land where the Divine Soul incarnates, Satguru Dev." "We are those birds. We want to fly away... Again, only in God can we come and rest." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 183b
Science of chakras
17:40 - 18:56 (76 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness, achieved through harmony and balance. The cosmic energy governs the universe, and this principle of union was discovered by ancient yogis. The individual soul is a spark of the divine light, present in all life. We originate from the cosmic sound and are composed of the five elements. Our journey involves many births, guided by karma, as the soul moves through forms and relations. The human body contains dormant energy centers called chakras, connected by 72,000 channels. Three primary channels—Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna—regulate energy, mind, and activity, converging at key points to form the chakras. These centers correspond to the elements and levels of consciousness, from the earthly Muladhara to the divine Sahasrara. Activating these centers through practice leads toward liberation. "Yoga means union—the union of the individual consciousness with the cosmic consciousness." "What is existing in the universe is existing in your body." Filming location: Croatia DVD 182a
Shiva will bless All
19:00 - 19:23 (23 min)
Recorded on
The Kali Yuga presents a severe trial, demanding unity. A time of great calamity approaches, with disasters, disease, and agricultural ruin. Yet, a path exists for those with correct knowledge to merge with the cosmic Śiva. Śiva's nature is universally compassionate, embracing all people and religions without exclusion, unlike other forces that may discriminate. Śiva's blessing is the paramount solution. The precious human birth is easily squandered without understanding. Time, once lost, never returns. Therefore, one must remember Śiva constantly through repetition of His names, cultivating real devotion to the inner Gurudeva, who appears in many forms beyond external designations. This devotion is the essential grace. "Śiva said, 'All of you are very good. Let be.'" "Human life in this world is very, very precious. If you do not understand and you lose it, then you have no knowledge." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

We are all like a drop of water seeking to merge with the ocean. Life is a process of growth in time, from childhood onward, yet our individual journeys are temporary. We desire to achieve the goal of oneness with the cosmic reality, to end the cycle of return. This longing is like a single drop wishing to join the vast ocean; upon merging, the separate self is gone. Our familial and social attachments are not permanent, as each soul must ultimately walk its own path toward that dissolution into the One, the ātmā. "One drop is just in the palm of our heart, and the ocean is so big. And now, this drop wants to say, 'I want to go to my water, my ocean.'"

Sanyas Diksha of Swami Chandrapuriji
20:15 - 20:25 (10 min)
Recorded on
The journey begins with the Guru, invoking divine presence through mantra and sacred narrative. Listen. You are making a resolve for the spiritual journey. Invocations are offered to Guru, Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Durga, Rama, Surya, and the divine principle of fullness. A creation myth is recounted: initially, there was no Shiva-Shakti, no linga, no yoni. They were fashioned from cuttings; from the first drop of blood came vermilion, from the second came all expansion. A devotional dialogue asks: Who cut the hair? Who gave the teaching? The Alakh Purush cut the hair; the Satguru gave the teaching. Thus, the short-haired renunciant shines with the light of Shiva-Shakti. The assembly concludes with salutations to the Guru, the eternal Dharma, and all divine forms. "Śiva-śakti nahī̃ thā, liṅga nahī̃ thā, bhaga nahī̃ thā. Nakha cīr ke liṅga banāyā, kamar cīr ke bhaga banāyā." "Kaun Guru Ne Kaata Kes, Kaun Purush Ne Diya Updes? Alakh Purush Ne Kaata Kes, Satguru Ne Diya Updes."
