The form and the formless
10:05 - 10:57 (52 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on purification, the body's energy systems, and mantra science. "Any kind of illnesses you have, go and practice ṣaṭkarma: netī, dhautī, bastī, naulī, that kind of practice. This is inner purification." "So, nirguṇa, it is a nādarūpa parabrahma. The resonance is the form of the Supreme." A spiritual teacher addresses an assembly at an ashram, explaining the yogic science of purification. He begins by correlating the traditional four social classes (varnas) to different parts and functions of the human body, arguing the caste system is a bodily metaphor, not a social hierarchy. The core teaching outlines a threefold purification process: cleansing the physical body through Haṭha Yoga techniques like ṣaṭkarma, purifying the 72,000 nāḍīs (energy channels) through prāṇāyāma and mantra vibration, and finally cleansing the mind. He leads the audience in chanting exercises, such as feeling the vibration of "Oṃ," and emphasizes the importance of correct Sanskrit pronunciation for mantras to affect specific chakras. The talk expands to cover the five sheaths (kośas) and concludes that yoga is a practical science for realizing the formless reality within the temporary form. Filming location: Melbourne, Australia

How to train our mind?
17:00 - 17:21 (21 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on taming the restless mind using a parable from Gurudeva. "Our mind is chanchal. Chanchal means very restless, and that is normal for a human mind, but you need to learn how to train and tame your mind." "In the same way, our minds are very restless, running around. We should just let it go; that is its job, to roam around and have thoughts continuously. Then, slowly, slowly, train your mind towards Guru Bhakti." A speaker recounts Gurudeva's parable of a king's untamable horse and the patient trainer who tamed it through gentle, persistent companionship and reward. The story serves as an analogy for taming the restless mind through devotion to the Guru and the path of Bhakti, rather than forceful suppression.
