A morning satsang on the guru's grace, devotion, and the power of teaching through stories.

The speaker, Swami Avatarpuri, opens with the principle of surrender to the guru's grace.

Pranayam always must begin in the left nostril. The ocean is the power of the Earth. All five elements have their power. We need power positive but hard. During meditation, we should see our inner world. Practice and heory are completely different. When we chant OM our tongue should be relaxed.
