Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Ljubljana, Slovenia. Satsang is the life of the human and it will lead us to the cosmic. Alakhpuriji was at the Siva time when the world was balanced between negative and positive. We need regularly meditate, practice pranayama and be in the company of good people otherwise we lose our spirituality. We can develop only step by step in this path. Many of us visited Alakhpurijis and Devpurijis cave to have darshan. Holiguruji had written in one bhajan that Mahaprabujis wisdom will spread all over the world before it happened. Now we can use it or lose it. The story of Devpurijis visit to Holiguruji. The story of Mahaprabhuji and Vishwaguruji with rudraksh malas. Another story of Vishwaguruji and Mahaprabhuji in the forest. Vishwaguruji had three visions of Alakhpuriji. The story of Nanda Devi and the tiger. We also got the power of the Gurus of our parampara. Practising ashwini mudra, Om chanting and bhramari pranayama .

Prana and pranayam
6:05 - 6:52 (47 min)
Recorded on
The science of prāṇāyāma addresses the profound pollution of our existence. Prāṇa, the vital energy, is managed through three processes: Pūrak (inhalation), Rechak (exhalation), and Kumbhak (retention). Sanskrit, the language of this science, resonates deeply, expanding consciousness. Our existence relies on the five elements, with the earth as a nurturing mother who forgives our pollution. Yet now, her forgiveness is strained by our actions. We poison the outer earth—its waters and air—and then our own bodies with toxins and disease. The worst pollution is mental, leading to violence and ignorance. Yoga is designed for this. It is the first science, integrating our five bodies—physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and blissful. Success in yoga comes through karma, selfless action, but is opposed by the great enemy: laziness. The fire of yoga practice burns away all karmic seeds. Prāṇāyāma is more crucial than physical postures; it purifies and protects. It begins by balancing the psychic channels: the left nostril (Chandra, the moon) calms emotions, and the right (Sūrya, the sun) clarifies intellect. This purification of the nāḍīs is the primary tool for deep meditation and strength. "To pollute the earth is a sin. It means you pollute Mother Earth." "The most dangerous pollution is in the human mind." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
Iyengar Yoga During Pregnancy: A Synthesis of Tradition and Experience
7:00 - 8:42 (102 min)
Recorded on
Iyengar Yoga is a methodology based on B.K.S. Iyengar's understanding of yogic scriptures, emphasizing precision and the use of props to make āsanas accessible. It interprets "Sthira sukham āsanam" as learning to be stable and delightful in any situation, not just comfortable. Props like walls, ropes, and bolsters were innovated to help students achieve correct alignment and experience the benefits, regardless of their condition. This approach bridges research-based evidence and experience-based tradition. The practice aims to create physiological changes that impact psychology, such as reducing stress by altering neurotransmitter levels. "Yoga is one, like God is one; different people call it by different names. There is nothing like Iyengar Yoga." "Āsanas are descriptions, not prescriptions." Filming location: Delhi, India

Recorded on
Preparing Upma, a simple and nourishing meal. This dish is ready quickly, ideal for breakfast or dinner. Begin by dry-roasting semolina to make it lighter and easier to digest.

Prepare a spice mixture of Himalayan salt, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric, and chili mixed with water. Add the roasted semolina to the vegetables and fry briefly. Pour the spice mixture into the pan. Add boiling water slowly while stirring continuously until the mixture becomes compact. For a final touch, add more tomatoes, fresh coriander, and lemon juice to enhance the flavor. Serve with a vegetable salad and yogurt. "Ghee greatly improves the entire body, helps create more bodily tissues, and is very beneficial for our brain, aiding in good memory." "Lemon juice is very useful because it enhances the taste of the food." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
The mercy of Bhagavan Shiva
9:15 - 9:45 (30 min)
Recorded on
Śiva is the eternal source and protector beyond birth and form. He is Ādi, the beginningless source from which all emerges. Śiva manifested Brahmā and Viṣṇu, assigning them roles: Brahmā creates, Viṣṇu preserves, and Śiva ultimately protects and dissolves. He maintains balance between all forces. The holy night of Mahāśivarātri commemorates his grace. A desperate hunter, failing to find food, climbed a Bīlva tree. Water from his vessel and leaves he dropped fell onto a Śiva Liṅga below, unknowingly performing worship. Throughout the night, he was moved to compassion and spared the lives of pleading deer. By dawn, Śiva, pleased with this inadvertent devotion, blessed the hunter and his family with sustenance, forbidding further killing. Śiva is Bholenāth, the easily pleased lord who grants boons to simple, sincere hearts, turning even accidental or flawed actions into devotion. "Śiva is not born; he has no mother, no son, and no father. He is the father; it is he who manifests himself." "So when man was there and Śiva came and Śiva said, 'I will protect these deer and I protect your families.'" Filming location: Sydney, Australia

The answer is yours because you are now a great man." The speaker, Swami Avatarpuri, opens with the principle of surrender to the guru's grace. He uses analogies, like a sculptor transforming stone into a worshipped deity, to illustrate how devotion elevates the ordinary.

The hidden powers in humans - Nadis
14:25 - 14:56 (31 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness, achieved through balance. The universe is an endless cosmic body containing a consciousness that desired to multiply, initiated by the sound Oṁ. From this resonance, the five elements were created, forming 8.4 million creatures, including humans distinguished by intellect. The human body contains 72,000 energy channels (nāḍīs) receiving cosmic energy. Three primary channels—Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumṇā—govern emotion, activity, and consciousness, intersecting at energy centers called chakras. Key chakras include Mūlādhāra and Sahasrāra. Kuṇḍalinī is the symbolic serpentine energy whose awakening unites these channels. Consciousness (Śiva) and energy (Śakti) must coordinate. Lower chakras relate to animalistic behaviors when active without heart coordination. The mind coordinates between subconscious impressions and conscious desires; it cannot be controlled, only guided. Physical practices are not yoga itself but methods to create the balance that is yoga. "Yoga means balance, and where there is a balance, there is a harmony, and where there is a harmony, there is a unity, and therefore yoga means literally the union: the union of the individual consciousness with the cosmic consciousness." "The mind cannot be controlled. If you control the mind, then psychic problems will appear. You cannot control the river, you cannot block it, you can guide the river."

Around the world - Yoga against backpain SLO
15:00 - 15:36 (36 min)
Recorded on
Yoga for the spine integrates anatomy, function, and daily practice. The spine is an axial skeleton of 24 vertebrae protecting the spinal cord. It is supported by muscles and ligaments for posture and movement. Pain arises from acute overload or chronic misalignment, disc wear, and disease. Everyday postures, like prolonged sitting, strain the spine by distorting its natural S-curve. Incorrect lifting multiplies force on the lumbar vertebrae. The intervertebral disc's fluid core distributes force, but poor loading can cause herniation. Sudden twists and high heels also increase risk. A consistent ten-minute yoga sequence can alleviate and prevent issues. It includes morning stretching, rocking, twists, shoulder exercises, side bends, rowing, and cat poses. Practice slowly, with awareness, and never force through pain. This mobilizes the spine, relieves tension, and increases energy. "The most common among all these incorrect postures is this one... we sit every day like this for eight hours." "Try it, you will see... In a month, you will see what a difference it will make."

A spiritual discourse on unity, diversity, and the essence of yoga. "In this Kali Yuga... The difference now is spirituality. You can call it yoga, meditation, prayer, or different religions, but we are all one." "Holi Guruji said, 'One in all and all in one.'... We should not say, 'If you are not my disciple or my Gurujī’s disciple, then we do not want you.' That is not good." The lecturer addresses a global television audience, emphasizing the underlying oneness of all spiritual paths, religions, and human beings despite different names and methods. Using analogies like children in a village, trees in a forest, and a football, he explains the philosophy of Yoga in Daily Life, stresses the importance of the immortal divine name over the physical body, and advocates for universal respect and inclusivity.

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Siva's divine shakti always protect us with Maha mritju jaya mantra.

According to Mangilalji humans will be the cause of Mahapralaya but spiritual people will go to Brahmaloka before it. We destroy our earth by cutting many trees and digging out mines. We make very much pollution to the environment and slaughtering many animals to eat. Not scientists but normal people can save the world. Where there is a will there is the way.
