A satsang discourse on contentment, spiritual pitfalls, and the importance of mantra practice. "A sannyāsī always renounces everything in life... That is how we all should try to be: happy with what we have, content with whatever we have." "When Gurubhakti, and the devotion, and the spirituality, leave our house, which means us... What we need is always the kṛpā (grace) of Gurudev. That’s the most important thing in the universe." Following opening prayers, the speaker narrates traditional stories to illustrate key themes: a contented sadhu who refuses Lord Shiva's boon, a greedy man who loses divine favor, and a lesson on not doubting divine wisdom.

Evening Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Martin, Slovakia. We should ask ourselves: Who am I? From where did I come? Where I am going? In order to have liberation, we need the blessing of the Guru.

There are three levels of consciousness.

A speech on the two paths of life and the role of the Guru, given at the inauguration of Om Ashram. "The path of spirituality is called the path of Parmārth. This is the path on which the Jīva attains God." "The only one who brings us to God is the Sadguru Dev. That’s why we are so lucky if we can come on the path where we meet the true Guru." Mahāmudāleśwar Swāmī Chidambaranand Saraswatī Ji Mahārāj, with translation by Swāmī Niranjanānandaji, explains the dichotomy between the worldly path of suffering and the spiritual path to bliss. He emphasizes that while family introduces one to the world, only a Sadguru can introduce one to God, the creator.

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

A spiritual discourse on maintaining clarity of purpose and guarding against negative influences. "Your aim should be clear. Nothing can change me. The sun and moon can change their direction, but I will not change my direction." "One stupid thought, one stupid person can destroy all your spiritual sādhanā, which you made years and years long with great confidence and with great love." Swami Ji addresses the community, explaining how a lack of clear aim allows the intellect to be distracted and how negative gossip and jealousy can spoil one's spiritual practice, like lemon curdling milk. He narrates the story of Nārada creating doubt between Śiva and Pārvatī to illustrate the destructive power of negative talk, and emphasizes the need for humility, love, and avoiding harmful company to protect one's spiritual progress.

A lecture on the integral connection between yoga and spirituality, delivered in Bratislava. "Yoga is that science and that quality which will save humanity. Without spirituality, it's like a body without a soul." "Yoga without spirituality is a body without soul. Spirituality is a life of yoga." Swami Madhvānandaji addresses an audience, emphasizing that authentic yoga is a spiritual science of body, mind, and soul, not merely physical exercise. He warns against the commercialization of yoga and explains how the practice purifies both physical and mental impurities (vikāras), using a story about Mahatma Gandhi to illustrate the dangers of greed and false assumption. The talk connects self-purification through āsana, prāṇāyāma, and meditation with universal spiritual unity. Filming location: Bratislava, Slovakia

An evening satsang and mantra teaching session on the power of spiritual company and the Guru's grace. "A spiritual person who was very dedicated towards spirituality can completely change his behavior just because of the food which he eats." "Guru Kṛpā Hi Kevalaṁ Śāśvika Ānanda Maṅgalam. So, when you have Gurudev's kṛpā, then the śiṣya is always in happiness." A Swami leads the gathering, first recounting a parable about a king's secretary whose life is ruined after his chef secretly feeds him meat, illustrating how negative influences (kusaṅga) and food can degrade spirituality. He emphasizes the importance of satsaṅga (good company), using the Guru's grace as the ultimate protection and guide. The discourse transitions into a mantra lesson, where the Swami teaches and corrects the pronunciation of a Sanskrit hymn dedicated to Lord Shiva. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A satsang discourse on dharma, spiritual practice, and the importance of community. "We always try to find the shortcuts, and we always try to find the easy way out." "In the satsaṅg, on the full moon, usually we listen to Guru Gītā. Try to really listen to Guru Gītā. I have listened to Guru Gītā for more than 40 years, and I must say that every time I hear something new inside." Following traditional invocations, a speaker addresses a gathering, weaving teachings on personal duty (dharma) with illustrative stories, including a sādhu persistently saving a scorpion and Nārada's lesson from Lord Viṣṇu. The talk emphasizes perseverance in one's path, learning from failures, and the critical role of regular satsang and deep, repetitive study of core teachings like the Guru Gītā over seeking novel techniques.

As you do, you will get
21:00 - 21:54 (54 min)
Recorded on
A satsang discourse on the importance of sāttvic food, strong digestive fire (agni), and the karmic effects of our actions. "In yoga, it is very important to know cooking. I heard from Viśvagurujī that it will be excellent if we are able to cook for ourselves—not to go to restaurants, not fast food, but to prepare food for yourself." "That is such a great lesson to us, that we, like a Yogī, should have such a kind of digesting fire, that kind of agni, jāṭharāgni, to be able to dissolve everything." Swami Vivek Puri and another speaker lead a satsang, emphasizing the spiritual and practical importance of cooking and consuming sāttvic, vegetarian food prepared with good intent. They explain how strong agni, cultivated through Haṭha Yoga practices like Agniśa Kriyā and Bhastrikā prāṇāyāma, allows one to digest not only food but also negative experiences. Several illustrative stories are shared, including a yogi defeating a demon through his digestive power, a woman whose poisoned food karmically affects her own family, and a thief whose negative intent temporarily influences a guru through offered food. The discourse consistently links diet to mental state, karma, and safe spiritual practice within the Yoga in Daily Life system. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Respect is important
22:00 - 22:53 (53 min)
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. The session concludes with Swami Avatar Puri teaching and explaining the "Nāma kamala nābhāya" mantra, including its translation and significance. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
What is excellent against stress
23:00 - 23:53 (53 min)
Recorded on
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.
