The Forms of the Divine
0:18 - 0:50 (32 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on the formless and manifest aspects of the divine. "One is what we can call God, but we cannot see God; it is only God. That is called Nirākāra. Nirākāra means there is no form or posture." "The second is Sākār. Sākār means with a form, like a statue or our body, so that we can worship God." A spiritual teacher delivers a satsang on Guruji's birthday, explaining the concepts of Nirākāra (formless God) and Sākār (God with form). Using examples like Jesus, Krishna, and Buddha, he illustrates how divine incarnations suffer and are often misunderstood. The talk expands to cover creation stories, the cycles of the Yugas, and the importance of righteous living and sādhanā (spiritual practice) in the current Kali Yuga.

A closing satsang reflecting on the essence of spiritual practice during a summer seminar. "You know what the best food is? First, when you are hungry, they say hunger is the best cook. Second, the best meal is when you don't have to cook or wash the dishes." "If you have so many stones in your pocket, you will go down. See this symbolically. If you believe and think that some crystal will save your life and change your destiny, what are we doing? We are believing that that stone is much stronger than Mahāprabhujī." The lecturer addresses the assembly, weaving personal anecdotes from his decades with Gurudev into teachings on discernment. He critiques an over-reliance on rituals, numbers, and external objects like crystals, emphasizing instead the supreme power of mantra, guru, and inner confidence. Key themes include navigating collective influences, distinguishing real practice from distraction, and cultivating the unwavering, urgent devotion exemplified in a story about Paramahaṁsa Rāmakṛṣṇa. The talk concludes with an emphasis on satsang as a vital support. Filming location: Vép, Hungary

A discourse on the practice and philosophy of Mānasik Pūjā, or mental worship. "Many people ask questions: how to meditate, what to imagine... So, the best solution is Mānasik Pūjā. When you perform the mental ceremony, you come out of your meditation full of strength, energy, love, and clarity." "Imagine that you are in the seva of your iṣṭadevatā... For this much time mentally, you are together. You are with it, and then you also get prasāda... This is a beautiful mānasik pūjā." The lecturer addresses devotees from an ashram in Vienna, explaining the concept and technique of mental worship of one's chosen deity (Iṣṭadevatā). He describes it as a solution to the emptiness that can arise in other forms of meditation, detailing how to mentally perform services like bathing, dressing, and offering food to the divine form. He shares a personal anecdote of his Guruji's disciplined practice and emphasizes that this internal seva cultivates love, dispels negative emotions, and reflects the divine light present in every heart.

A spiritual discourse reflecting on the sacred Himalayan cave of Alakpurījī and the path of yoga. "People were protecting and protecting from the enemies. And so Alakpurījī’s cave is a big rock. And it had no door. All the ṛṣis there did not build any doors." "When we meditate, or we say, 'Alak Purījī Mahādev Kī Jai,' the whole rocks there are glaciers, rocks. When we meditate, there is a beautiful sound of the Alaknandā river." Swami Ji leads a satsang, weaving together a description of the remote Himalayan cave, stories of ascetics like Devpurījī, and parables about spiritual pursuit. He emphasizes that true yoga is the inner purification of the heart to achieve oneness, drawing lessons from the harsh, beautiful landscape and the devotees who journey there. The talk concludes with analogies about cultivating inner divinity and peace. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A closing discourse on integrating spiritual awareness into daily life, from sleep to nourishment. "In deep sleep, you know nothing of being a millionaire or a beggar.

Lord, forgive me if there was anything not good.'" Swami Avatarpuri concludes a seminar by guiding attendees through a sacred daily rhythm. He explains the unity experienced in deep sleep, followed by prayers upon waking and mindful practices with water, air, and earth. The talk emphasizes gratitude, the divinity in natural elements, and the importance of offering one's actions. He details a spiritual approach to nourishment, advocating for fresh, whole foods and traditional preparation, linking physical health to inner peace and meditation. Filming location: Austria
Develop your wisdom, do not steal
8:50 - 9:38 (48 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse addressing imitation, authentic wisdom, and the importance of satsaṅg. "Imitation is stealing. It is not truth, but imitation." "If the butter has been eaten by all these other writers... they ate only the butter; they did not eat the cow. So, milk the cow." The lecturer speaks on the prevalence of imitation in the material and spiritual worlds, using examples from currency counterfeiting to plagiarized scriptures. He recounts a parable where a disciple laments that all wisdom has been taken by past saints, and Gurujī's response is to use the intellect (the cow) with devotion to produce fresh wisdom. The talk emphasizes generating original spiritual insight, warns against bad company (ku-saṅga), and concludes with an explanation of a bhajan by Mahāprabhujī about losing one's way by leaving the Guru's shelter.

A speaker addresses a gathering in the presence of Gurudeva, expressing gratitude for the guru's loving endurance. He explains the essential role of the Sadguru in spiritual life, using the story of Dhruva's devotion and a parable about two Brahmins discovering that all holy rivers purify themselves at the feet of a true guru.

A speaker addresses the gathering after a Guru Purnima celebration, exploring how the essence of yoga remains constant while adapting across time and place. He shares stories illustrating the Guru's foresight, like predicting currency changes in Croatia, and emphasizes the transformative power of dedicated practice and being physically present in the ashram's energy.
