Recorded on
A spiritual discourse and mantra teaching session on the power of language, respect, and energy. "Spirituality does not mean wholly very slow... But with this different energy inside, just try to be aware of this thing: in which way are we addressing other people?" "You get from an object only as much as you respect it... If your mālā has some value for you, you will keep it in a safe place... Because of that, you will, from your mālā, get energy when you need it." A speaker leads a satsang, emphasizing the profound impact of words, gestures, and intention. He discusses how language shapes reality, using examples from addressing others to serving food and respecting spiritual objects like a mala. The talk covers the importance of positive speech, respectful action, and the energy behind our deeds.

Guru's Darshan is the most precious
6:55 - 7:11 (16 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse sharing a traditional parable about pilgrimage and divine grace. "All day I am being bathed in by so many thousands and thousands of people. All of their sins come into me... When we come to our guru and we do seva... by the soil which touched his feet—when it touches us, we become pure." "Gaṅgājī will give you much easier darśan. Whenever you are going on the way, always try to stay only at those houses where the householder has already had Gaṅgā snāna—a bath in the Gaṅgā." A Swami addresses a satsang, recounting the story of two Brahmins on a pilgrimage to bathe in the Ganga. They follow strict advice on their journey, only to discover the river goddesses themselves—blackened by the sins of devotees—performing seva at a nearby ashram to be purified by their guru's foot-dust. The narrative illustrates that true purification comes from selfless service and guru's grace, not merely ritual. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Swami Maheshvarananda leads a teaching session, exploring how to observe life without judgment. He explains a directive from Vishva Guruji using a parable of a man mistaking a drowning bear for a blanket, illustrating the need for wise detachment.

What is excellent against stress
9:05 - 9:58 (53 min)

A satsang discourse on overcoming fear and stress through laughter, authenticity, and spiritual practice. "Never take them seriously. Especially laugh at our own mistakes, problems, and fears." "Spirituality without love is a terrible thing. I always remember... 'God, please protect me from spirituality without laughter.'" The teacher shares stories and practical advice for dealing with internal struggles, emphasizing not to suppress fears but to face them with awareness and humor. He recounts the tale of a witch who controlled a village through fear of her rooster, illustrating how confronting false beliefs dispels their power. The talk connects this to daily spiritual practice, advising against empty ritual in favor of authentic feeling, as exemplified in the story of Krishna preferring a banana peel offered with love over a feast offered with pride.

How to think of black magic
10:05 - 10:52 (47 min)
Recorded on
A satsang discourse debunking fear-based beliefs around black magic and ghosts through storytelling. "People are very much frightened. They speak of ghosts and such things, and many claim they can take away the black magic which is supposedly on you." "If we believe in God, then believe in God. God will give everything. God will never do anything negative for us." Swami Ji narrates two cautionary tales to illustrate how fear and superstition are exploited. The first story tells of a village magician who manipulates a grieving widow, and the second describes a 'ghost' that turns out to be a moonlit chimney. He emphasizes that true spiritual practice, such as having a Guru Mantra and faith, offers protection, concluding that it is one's own fear, not external forces, that causes suffering.

A spiritual discourse narrating the story of Pārvatī's resolve to perform tapasyā (austerity) and explaining its power. "Tapasya is the giver of happiness and the remover of all troubles." "Through the power of tapasyā, Brahmā is able to create this world. Through the power of that tapasyā... Viṣṇu is able to protect the world. And through that power of tapasyā, Śiva, is able to destroy all the negative powers." The speaker recounts how Pārvatī, consoling her mother Mēnā, describes a dream in which a Brāhmaṇa instructs her to undertake severe spiritual austerity, affirming the truth of sage Nārada's words. The narrative details the immense power of tapasyā, using the examples of the Hindu trinity and Śeṣanāga, and describes Pārvatī's subsequent journey into the forest for a prolonged, extreme penance to attain Lord Śiva.
