A speaker at a yoga retreat in Střílky explains the vast, cyclical time scales of Hindu cosmology. He details the durations of the four yugas, the Mahāyuga, and the Kalpa, describing the periodic dissolutions (Laya, Pralaya) and the roles of Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva.

A speaker leads a satsang, emphasizing the eternal student's attitude and the critical role of the embodied spiritual master (Guru-Tattva) as the essential guide. Using stories and analogies—such as the matchbox with a diamond, the friend with a boat, and the river merging into the ocean—the talk explains the guru's function and explores the ultimate goal of yoga: to transcend the cycle of rebirth and realize the Advaita (non-dual) union of the individual self with the cosmic Self.

Swami Paramananda leads an evening satsang from the Yoga and Life Ashram, continuing a series on the chakras. He explains the human body's subtle anatomy, including the 72,000 nerves and the three primary nāḍīs (Iḍā, Piṅgalā, Suṣumṇā). The core teaching focuses on the three obstacles to spiritual awakening: impurities (mala), mental disturbances (vikṣepa), and the veil of ignorance (āvaraṇa).

Using the symbol's imagery—the lotus, the elephant of prosperity, the coiled serpent of time, and the Śiva Liṅga—they explain the cakra's role as the seat of dormant energy (Śakti) and its awakening as the start of the spiritual journey toward union with supreme consciousness.

"If one chants the Guru's name with faith, one will surely reach the shore." A speaker addresses the assembly, asserting that true happiness and Self-knowledge come only through grace of a Satguru. He illustrates this with stories of the powerful ascetic Sanghdev, who was liberated by Sant Gyaneshwar, and the egoistic tantric Bhaskarananda, who was humbled by Bhagavan Shri Dip Narayana Mahaprabhuji. The talk emphasizes that rituals and powers are insufficient without the Guru, who alone can dispel ignorance and bestow the bliss of liberation. Filming location: Bari Khatu, Rajasthan, India
