The Guru is the unity of all worship and the source of true knowledge. Worship of all creation is worship of the one Guru, for the soul and the Guru are one. Singing devotional prayers requires the qualities of a Guru, as it is rooted in meditation upon the Gurudev. A genuine guru teaches comprehensive knowledge—the what, where, and how—not merely alphabets or rituals. Common sense and deeper understanding are essential, unlike the disciple who foolishly overfilled a container with oil. The teaching is to awaken this inner wisdom.
"Meditate on the Gurudev. And do not think the Gurudev is only for giving pictures and mantras."
"Just writing the alphabet and teaching you this and this and that is not enough. That is very, very important: when, where, and how."

The love of animals
2:50 - 3:54 (64 min)
The power of mantra brings peace, transcending any specific language. All chants carry the same harmony. Holy rivers, seen as mothers, flow from their sources to the vast ocean, purifying the land. This earth is sustained by these waters. Humans possess a unique consciousness, aware of concepts like merit and sin, which animals do not hold. Animals express pure love and live without such moral constructs. Their simple affection contrasts with human complexity. We must protect all creatures, like bees and birds, as their loss disrupts nature's balance. True spiritual practice involves cultivating inner happiness that extends to others, while recognizing that inner problems, like addiction, can be destructive. The journey involves understanding the body and the energy within.
"One says 'Om' and another says 'Arihom,' but it is all the same."
"Animals do not have this kind of thought, that I will be a puppy or follow dharma. Animals do not know that. But they have love."

Practicing of the system 'Yoga in Daily Life', Level 1 - Part 2
4:00 - 5:04 (64 min)
A morning yoga practice guides the body and breath toward relaxation and awareness. Begin by lying down, consciously relaxing each part of the body from the toes to the head. Observe the natural breath, then consciously deepen it into a full yogic wave moving from abdomen to chest. Coordinate simple stretches with inhalation and exhalation, feeling tension and release. Progress through poses that stretch the spine diagonally and twist it, always keeping the lower back close to the floor. Move into seated postures for flexion and extension of the spine, coordinating each movement with the breath. Conclude with deep relaxation, breath awareness, and a simple prāṇāyāma technique. "Feel your body becoming heavier with each exhalation." "Harmonize your movement with your breath." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Protect Mother Earth
5:10 - 6:03 (53 min)
A prayer for the protection of Mother Earth.
Humans have destroyed the Earth by extracting oil, coal, and minerals, breaking her body. Mother Earth provides for all creatures, from ants to elephants, yet we live improperly and are often ill. The current age brings pandemics, war, and environmental turmoil. We must act now to protect all life and not kill the Mother. Previous generations respected the Earth, but now knowledge is lost. Do not waste food or water, for they are divine gifts and life itself. Throwing them away is a sin. Live happily and peacefully, keeping the inner light alive, and uplift others through prayer and mantra.
"From the little ant to the elephant, who is feeding them? Not us—Mother Earth."
"Throwing away food is a sin—a sin to destroy food."

How can we reach the Supreme?
6:10 - 6:49 (39 min)
Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. Only bhaktas can come to the Satsang. The story about a rishi who read the Vedas for a very long time. Only reading books can not lead to the Supreme. We need a mantra and the words of the Guru also. Bhajan singing.
Be conscious in the present
6:55 - 7:39 (44 min)
Satsaṅg is a practice of purification through attentive presence and self-encounter. Open your ears and fill your chest to cleanse negative thoughts. You become your own guide. Every religion has good perspectives, but the root is one. When you come for prayer, ring bells and sing bhajans to relax and oxygenate the body. The essence of an āśram is work. If you are not making effort, it is not a true āśram. In a small āśram, you are forced to face yourself daily; there is nowhere to run from conflicts. These clashes are necessary polishing, like stones in a river becoming smooth. The spiritual work is to see that problems with others are projections of your own qualities. There are no others; what you see outside is part of you to work with. The practice is to be present, not lost in thoughts of past or future.
"Tell your wife to sing properly. The husband must be good, but the wife will be even more than that."
"In an āśram, basically, you are forced to face yourself every day."

We need real dedication
7:45 - 8:43 (58 min)
Evening Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. There are two kinds of people living separately or in the family. Orange dress means renunciation. The story about two brothers one of them was studied and the other lived a spiritual life alone in a forest. There are two kinds of bhava. One is where there is some wish and the other has no wish. Birds know that there is their child in the eggs. The lecturer speaks about his daily life and his spiritual experiences in different Ashrams.
Guru and disciple
8:50 - 9:22 (32 min)
The essence of all spiritual power is Guru's grace alone. Blessings are more powerful than any material possession. This grace is the vitalizing force, like rain reviving a parched landscape. The Guru is one who has attained the supreme state, residing within the heart. A genuine Guru is appointed by the Satguru to care for disciples, not one who merely claims the title. While many instructors in life can be called gurus, the real Guru is singular. True devotion, bhakti, combines the mindful respect of śraddhā with the feeling of love. Through this bhakti toward the Guru, everything can be achieved. Ultimately, the disciple's joy and liberation are founded solely upon this grace.
"Guru Kripa Hi Kevalam. Only and only that powers everything we see."
"Bhakti is equal to love and śraddhā combined. Both mind and feeling together—this is the great quality of bhakti."

Purify your body and eat proper food
9:30 - 10:27 (57 min)
Kriyā Anuṣṭhāna is a regenerative practice akin to Kāya Kalpa, renewing the body and spirit. Practicing collectively provides mutual energy and support, preventing the isolation and difficulty of solitary practice. This process purifies the body's five elements. The natural environment, such as a meadow with an old tree, radiates vital energy that complements the practice. The body requires internal space and tolerance in its joints, maintained through exercise and diet. Impurities from dead tissues and improper food cause disease; purification comes through prāṇāyāma, fasting, and herbal soups. Consuming pure ghee from specific cows is advised over other fats, and massaging a cow can balance circulation. Natural methods, like using earth to clean teeth, are superior to modern products. The practice cleanses the body, thoughts, and mind completely.
"Kriyā Anuṣṭhāna is like what we call regenerating. It is like Kāya Kalpa."
"In this small seed, you can carry this whole tree. It will grow."

How cosmic energy is circulating in our body
10:35 - 11:16 (41 min)
The Viśuddhi Chakra purifies energy through sound and nerve connections. The body contains 72,000 nerve channels forming a network. The solar plexus, or Maṇipūra Chakra, is a powerful healing center and the seat of life's energy, connected to the sun. This sunlight, symbolized by the svastika, awakens through practices like Agnisar Kriyā. The universal sound OṂ, concentrated at the Viśuddhi, purifies negative energy. Chakras have petals representing Sanskrit alphabets, with resonance in each center. Purification addresses physical, mental, and emotional disease. The sound AUM originates from the sun and moves from the navel through the body. Prāṇāyāma involves inhalation, exhalation, and retention. The three principal nāḍīs are Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumnā, which intersect at chakras. The Vajranāḍī begins at the toes and balances the entire nerve system, aiding digestion and immunity when sitting in Vajrāsana. This posture aligns the spine and relaxes the body, supporting the Viśuddhi Chakra's function.
"The Viśuddhi Chakra is a filter, purifying all the negative energy from our body."
"That sound comes to our navel, and from our navel, it sends radiance through the whole body."

The thread of the Mala
11:20 - 12:11 (51 min)
The thread of saṅkalpa connects all beings. Saṅkalpa is a heartfelt wish or resolution. Your world is bound on that thread. Often you break your word, severing the connection. God is one, regardless of name. We are connected by our wish, which will be fulfilled. The thread is your promise. Do not break it. Customs like sharing salt signify an unbreakable bond. Now, in this age, that human connection is lost. If you make a vow, like fasting, you must keep it. Otherwise, do not make it. Surrender body, mind, wealth, and word. That is the true offering.
"Saṅkalpa means, 'I said, I wished.'"
"If you say yes, it means you are now my friend."

Body is important
12:15 - 12:58 (43 min)
The inquiry of yoga is the inquiry into the true self. Yoga is not merely physical postures but a deep exploration of consciousness. The body is composed of the five elements: space, air, fire, water, and earth. These elements do not die; they merely merge back into their source. Consciousness is not within us, nor are we within it; the relationship is beyond that duality. The self we typically identify with is like an onion: when all layers are peeled, no permanent core is found. We are a temporary combination of elements. The human condition uniquely involves both purity and impurity, good and bad deeds. A story illustrates that without true knowledge, even well-intentioned help can be misguided. Therefore, one must go within through meditation. Begin each day with gratitude and recognition of the elements. Do not assume you know the duration of your life. Your true guide, like the essence of your parents, is always within you. The essence of yoga is to realize you are not the body or the mind, but the awareness that witnesses it all.
"Who are you? It’s just temporary, you are with the five elements."
"Therefore, go within thyself and meditate and meditate."

Unity in spirituality
13:05 - 13:48 (43 min)
This is a time of global celebration and unity in divine praise. The message of oneness is spread through yoga, transcending all borders and divisions. Personal travels through many nations demonstrate this universal work. The essence of all religions is one God, though human ego creates conflict. The core spiritual truth is that creation emanates from a single consciousness. All souls originate from and return to one divine source, like drops to an ocean. Therefore, live in harmony, forgive, and do good.
"Religion means to realize your relation to God; this is called religion."
"Every soul is the same. From the ocean comes the fog... joined again into the ocean."

Going to Brahmaloka
13:55 - 14:54 (59 min)
The foundation of practice is essential, regardless of one's level. The complete system of yoga begins with basic exercises, which are more beneficial than advanced postures. Even advanced practitioners must regularly return to foundational practices for proper preparation and health. The science of prāṇāyāma also requires starting from the beginning each time, progressing gradually like gears in a car. Many use terms like Aṣṭāṅga Yoga or Haṭha Yoga without practicing their true, scriptural meanings, which creates confusion. Authentic progress requires following one complete path with its principles, not mixing methods. Theory alone is insufficient; practical application is what fulfills.
"The first and second parts of Yoga in Daily Life are more beneficial than advanced postures."
"Tons of theory is nothing, a gram of practice."

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.

Bhajan evening from Jadan Ashram
16:05 - 16:42 (37 min)
The compassionate Lord Śiva resides within the heart and bestows liberation. He is the primal Lord whose radiance fills all universes. Taking shelter in him ends pain and brings divine happiness. He cuts the noose of bondage with his own hand and liberates the soul. Worship and meditation upon this blessing cure diseases and remove all obstacles. Success is bestowed in the heart, and one obtains everything without asking. Focus the mind on the Guru in the heart to dispel all sorrow. Through the Guru's grace, all ignorance is destroyed, revealing the true self. One who serves the True Guru never falls into hell, and all fears vanish. Merge the mind in the True Guru.
"He Himself respectfully calls out to His devotees."
"One who meditates on this blessing, their obstacles and troubles will not remain."

The way to Satyayuga
16:45 - 17:12 (27 min)
Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Mutual understanding between different cultures will bring harmony and peace on Earth. People will understand their common roots, and will turn to ancient, authentic yoga and to real spirituality. Spiritual education takes place in a Gurukul. By learning in Gurukuls and realizing ethical principles the whole world will be one family of God, and Satyayuga, the Golden Age, will come.
Be careful with the mind
18:10 - 19:33 (83 min)
The spiritual path is narrow and perilous, requiring vigilant discernment. Pride in the body or limited knowledge is a profound weakness. Spiritual development itself brings danger, akin to a newborn vulnerable to infection. Negative influences and mental afflictions can infiltrate and destroy progress from within, much like a small axe fells a mighty tree when joined by the forest that becomes its handle. Therefore, the protective power of true satsaṅga, or holy company, is essential. In this dark age of ignorance, the path is slippery and lined with adversaries. One must be humble, avoid negative company, and remain steadfast on the chosen path, for the mind can either liberate or destroy.
"Satguru satsaṅg yārī olu avere, olu avere nen bharja avere." (I am longing for those people who have satsaṅg.)
"Galiyāṁ choṭī, rāt andherī, rāste meṁ chikanāī." (The path is very narrow, the night is very dark, and the road is slippery.)
