I will be Thine

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Vienna, Austria (in German and English language). God is everywhere. Where there is devotion and love, there is no distance. Fear comes out of ignorance.

Sound and resonance
2:25 - 3:21 (56 min)

Morning Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Vep, Hungary. Regardless whether you understand bhajans or not, the resonance awakens spirituality in you. The resonance of the songs is reflected in our ten indriyas (organs of perception and action). Swami Sivananda said in his bhajan: those are my friends who understand my words. 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.
We should have roots
3:25 - 4:24 (59 min)

A spiritual discourse on yoga teaching, tradition, and the importance of roots.
"We must always create slightly different techniques for everyone. And all of you should become good teachers, our yoga teachers."
"Where are the roots of your village, your city, and your parents?... So where is the root for you?"
An elder teacher addresses a gathering, emphasizing the need for personalized yoga instruction and for students to become qualified teachers themselves. He critiques superficial academic approaches to yoga while paradoxically advocating for establishing yoga in universities. Using metaphors of children, families, and falling leaves, he stresses the importance of spiritual lineage (parampara) and staying connected to one's roots, ultimately pointing toward the soul's journey and liberation.

Aba Tuma Daya Karo Gurudevaji
4:30 - 4:52 (22 min)

A discourse analyzing the devotional hymn "The Slave of the Beloved," exploring the meaning of its verses and the state of total spiritual surrender.
"The 'dās' meaning servant. But the deeper meaning is truly 'slave'... A servant has a contract, set working hours, a salary, and free time. A slave has none of that."
"Please remove my doubts, my confusion, and my karmas... You are the sign showing the path to the truth, to the reality of God."
The speaker provides a line-by-line interpretation of the hymn's Sanskrit and Hindi verses, explaining key concepts like total surrender (dās), divine radiance (Nūr), and the guru's role as a guide. Themes include overcoming duality, the indescribable nature of the divine, and the liberating power of mantra repetition and devotion.

The Soul and the Guru
6:05 - 6:48 (43 min)

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Cherkasy Ashram, Ukraine. We have many duties in the world. It's important to give the children culture and a good education. They should not go into bad society, they should become wise. One day the soul will leave behind the physical body. The karma and destiny will go with us. We are searching for the Master today. You can learn from different masters but can have only one Guru. Do not expect miracles.
The real Guru is in oneness
6:55 - 7:56 (61 min)

A spiritual discourse on universal oneness and the nature of the divine path.
"If a God says, 'Do not worship that God,' then neither is that God right, nor are you good. We have to come to oneness."
"The drop is not there. I am not a drop. I am the ocean. Similarly, we are in that condition. But you are still not near the beach of the ocean."
The speaker, likely a spiritual teacher, leads a satsang exploring the essential unity of all spiritual paths and deities. He emphasizes that a true guru or God would never forbid the worship of another, advocating for a non-sectarian devotion. Using metaphors like a drop merging into the ocean and the irreversible flight of an airplane, he discusses the preciousness of time, the journey of the soul, and the nature of prana (life force) as both a suffering entity and a divine connection. The talk weaves between philosophical points, practical advice, and anecdotal reflections, concluding with a call for inner purity and an end to religious duality.

A speaker narrates an extended parable about three daughters—Gyānībāī (knowledge), Sevābāī (selfless service), and Bhaktībāī (devotion)—who each transform their new households through their spiritual qualities. The stories illustrate the power and integration of jñāna, karma, and bhakti yoga. The discourse concludes with reflections on building a strong spiritual foundation through the holistic practice of "Yoga in Daily Life."

Great Saints set an example
14:05 - 15:05 (60 min)

A spiritual discourse on dharma, sādhanā, and the essence of scripture.
"Dharma means rightness—the dharma of humans, animals, nature, seasons, husband, wife, children, friends, and neighbors. It is not about worshipping separate gods."
"The essence of all these scriptures is contained in just two words: 'Śuk diyā śuk hot hai, aur duk diyā duk hoī.' If you give pleasure to others, you will receive pleasure. If you give trouble to others, you will receive trouble."
Swami Satyāśāntānanda delivers a teaching, contrasting superficial yoga techniques with the higher path of sādhanā. He defines true dharma as universal righteousness beyond religious division, emphasizing satsaṅg and the study of saints' lives. Using parables and references to historical figures—from Jesus and Guru Gobind Singh's sons to a self-sacrificing ṛṣi—he illustrates the power of commitment to dharma and the inner study of the self (svādhyāya).

Guru's Darshan is the most precious
15:10 - 15:26 (16 min)

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.

We can change the world together
21:10 - 22:06 (56 min)

A satsang addressing the consumption of insects in food and advocating for consumer awareness and unity.
"They have decided in the whole world, and they also give to India. Some said, 'Good, it is very good,' and some said, 'No, we will not.'"
"The best food for our health is no-label food. What does 'eat at home' mean? Prepare your bread, prepare your chapati, roti, or falahari diet."
Following a personal anecdote about a health issue, a speaker discusses the global introduction of insects into the food supply. A representative from the Czech Republic explains local regulations requiring ingredient labeling, while a devotee from London shares efforts to lobby in the UK and EU parliaments. The discussion expands to cover the spiritual and health implications of diet, referencing Ayurvedic concepts like prāṇa. The final speaker calls for collective action, endurance, and self-reliance in food preparation, drawing inspiration from historical figures like Mahatma Gandhi.

What Incarnation means
22:10 - 23:04 (54 min)

A spiritual discourse on the nature of the soul, creation, and Śiva.
"There is one who is not born from a mother and not from a father. Only that one can be called an incarnation, and that one is called Svayambhū."
"We all are one. It doesn't matter, the human or reptilian or the birds or any. There is a soul, jīva. Life, they are all one."
The lecturer speaks at the Yogandī Life center in Vienna on the anniversary of Gurudev Swami Madhavānandajī. He contemplates the concept of incarnation, explaining Śiva as the unmanifest Svayambhū who willed multiplicity into being through the five elements. Using the metaphor of the ocean and water cycle, he describes the singular soul within all life forms, discusses karma, and emphasizes the power of speech through a parable about the tongue and teeth.
