Recorded on
A lecture on the chakra system and spiritual purification. "The human birth and human body possess very special abilities and a most powerful tool: the intellect. Through our intellect, we can discover all our hidden powers." "Before we awake or open the chapter of the chakra... [there are] three negative points to address... mala, vikṣepa, and āvaraṇa." 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). He details methods for purification through Haṭha Yoga techniques, control of the senses, and satsang, weaving in stories and analogies about the mind, karma, and the goal of liberation beyond the cycle of birth and death.

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. There are many Gods but finally, there are all one. Our soul is circling in the universe like water in the earth. The story about how can some seeds öf grain remain unbroken. Who is going to the Satsang they can reach the Supreme. Sometimes we see the karma but don't do that. Man saints past away but their name remained with us. Holiguruji was very lovely and strict for those persons who were around him. Holiguruji knew if somebody criticises him the bad karma went to that man. Diving to the ocean we can hear the beautiful sound and we hear this also if we plug our ears. Viswaguruji blows the conch three times for the honour of Holiguruji.

But he said, for you, Arjuna, it is easier to worship in form." Swami Anand Arun explores the concepts of formless (Nirākāra) and personal (Sākāra) divinity, using the analogy of the unreachable horizon. He discusses the path of worship, the significance of divine forms and symbols in Hindu tradition, and the importance of sacred language and human relationships.

A spiritual discourse on the foundational principles of sādhanā (spiritual practice). "Practices alone will not help us. They can only be fruitful if we follow physical and mental principles. These are called Śayamit and Niyamit." "Viveka is that which will divide truth and untruth completely... who has viveka all the time is the happiest and safest person." The speaker explains the core disciplines for a spiritual life: Śayamit (self-control and setting boundaries) and Niyamit (daily discipline). He details how these practices, along with regular prayer (sandhyā), purify the mind and senses.

Swami Māheśvarānanda addresses a global audience, sharing a personal nocturnal reflection on the limitations of external seeking. He emphasizes that true peace and divine connection are found within, using metaphors of water sources and a hungry child looking at pictures of food.

Shabda means sound, words. In the Gurukul, the warrior students learnt all mantras for archery. By the power of these mantras the arrow goes straight to where the sound of the tiger came from. Vishwaguruji explains the karmic sin of King Dasharatha, father of God Rama.

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Slovenska Vas, Slovenia. Cancer is a terrible disease for humans because of many chemicals. Nowadays we shole buy seeds that are also not healthy for us.

We also use makeup and that is unnatural. We should come back to nature to save our health. To fast two days in a week will help you to recover from many illnesses. To practise ashwini mudra problems of haemorrhoids will go away. The navel is the seed of our life. Practising bhramari pranayama and meditation.
