A satsang on the regenerative power of collective spiritual practice and the concept of Kāya Kalpa.

The lecturer explains the benefits of group spiritual practice (anuṣṭhāna), describing it as a mutual exchange of energy that prevents the loneliness and difficulty of solitary practice. He expands the theme into a discourse on Kāya Kalpa, or bodily regeneration, linking it to diet, natural living, and purification through practices like prānāyāma.

We will go one day
7:10 - 7:53 (43 min)

Evening satsang from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. We always worry about death. Death is a universal law. Our mind is always restless. We can train it by mantra.

The story of a man who planned that when Yama came, he would hide somewhere. We should meditate always not only when we are in trouble. We should remember God every day, at least a little bit. Unfortunately present Indian generation is beginning to forget their roots. Birth and death come and go, but remember the name of God.

"Vasudeva Kuṭumbakam means the world is one. All the people in the world are one family. As for us, we are one family, all in one, one in all."
A spiritual teacher addresses a gathering, explaining Raksha Bandhan as a sacred bond of protection and love that transcends biological siblingship. He describes it as a spiritual and emotional reunion that cultivates gratitude and blessings. The talk illustrates this with stories from the Mahabharata, where Draupadi and Lord Krishna become spiritual siblings, and the historical tale of Rani Karnavati and Humayun. The core theme is the expansion of familial love into a universal principle of dharma and protection.
