A yoga practice moves from stillness to dynamic movement, integrating precise alignment with collective rhythm. Begin in Śavāsana, lengthening the neck and stabilizing the lower back. Simple movements prepare the body, emphasizing synchronized group action over individual stretch. The practice progresses through leg lifts, spinal rolls, and postures like Śaśāṅkāsana, which calms fear and aids digestion. Dynamic sequences in Vajrāsana and variations like Uttānapṛṣṭhāsana strengthen the trunk and spine. A forearm Marjari variation mobilizes the thoracic spine. The session concludes with guided relaxation, allowing any comfortable position before rehydration. Synchrony and mindful breath are central throughout. "Śaśāṅkāsana reduces the fear in our heart, the stress and fear." "This will strengthen our whole trunk muscles. It will make the spine straight." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The quality of our era is determined by our inner state. While some lament this age, it offers unique tools like rapid travel and distant connection. The key is to extract only the nourishing essence from the vast information, like the swan separating milk from water. Our experience of time depends on our inner qualities. This gathering is a timeout to calm our inner dialogue, not to escape life but to gain clarity before re-engaging. We require the support of our spiritual family for strength. Utilize this time for serious practice, particularly prāṇāyāma to settle the agitated mind and prāṇa. Calm the body through deliberate movement to quiet mental disturbances. Simplify your environment and focus intently, avoiding distractions like constant drinking which disrupts inner fire and focus. Move from mere belief to direct understanding. "Take the pearls, take the milk, and leave the water." "Our meditation and practice are not about running away but about taking a timeout before returning to the game."

This lecture details the Śaṅkha Prakṣālana and Kunjal Kriyā purification techniques. Śaṅkha Prakṣālana is the cleansing of the entire intestine using warm, lightly salted water, performed early in the morning on an empty stomach. It involves drinking water and performing specific movements and postures to guide the water through the system. This practice is beneficial for conditions like high blood pressure and digestive issues but is not advised for those under 15, individuals with active ulcers or hernias, or pregnant women. Preparation includes a light diet the prior evening. The process continues until the expelled water runs clear. A strict diet must follow for at least one week, avoiding alcohol, meat, fish, eggs, and raw foods. Kunjal Kriyā is the cleansing of the stomach, performed after Śaṅkha Prakṣālana by drinking unsalted water to the point of fullness and then voluntarily expelling it. This practice helps purify the stomach and can aid those with bronchial asthma. The session concludes with rest and a meal of specially prepared kicharī. "The best time to do Śaṅkha Prakṣālana is in March, the beginning of September, the end of May, and before the winter." "After Śaṅkha Prakṣālana, you have to keep a diet for at least, strictly, seven days, one week, and up to one month." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

One word transmits a message to all, like rain falling equally on every creature. In difficulty, know you are carried by God, not abandoned. A true yogi, beyond all ritual, desires nothing, not even from Shiva. The soul is spotless, like the endless sky. Our body is a temporary shell; the eternal Ātmā within is one with the Guru's heart. Purification is for the mind, but the soul itself is already pure. "When the difficult time comes, then you should know that you are now with God." "Ask anything. He said, 'Okay, if you want to ask me anything, then get up.' What he said to Shiva, 'Go from here.'" Filming location: Dungog, New South Wales, Australia

This place is a sanctuary of purity and spiritual well-being. It is full of prāṇa and very good for health, as our environment here is clean and free from chemicals. The natural water flows, the healthy trees, and the pure air create a healing atmosphere. People recover from ailments and stress through meditation, prāṇāyāma, and satsaṅg. This is a retreat from the modern world's pollution and materialism. We observe that modern comforts and money often lead to loss and dissatisfaction, unlike the simple, pure life here. The ashram fosters positive community, spiritual practice, and a return to natural living. It is a place for healing, happiness, and reconnecting with essential purity. "All 24 hours and in every direction, we are very clean, with no chemicals inside. This is very much our heritage, our health." "In every country, for all people, there must be yoga in daily life. There must not be yoga." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The Guru's light manifests on earth as pure knowledge, requiring a living guide for correct spiritual practice. This divine principle, the Guru Tattva, is the same in all true teachers, yet disciples share an intimate, familial connection with their own. The guru's physical form is a vessel for this light; entering its radiant aura transforms one's energy. Even in the guru's physical absence, gathering with devotion in satsaṅg magnetically draws that divine presence. The quality of satsaṅg depends on the participants' internal energy. Approach it not as obligation but with joy, for your own energy determines the atmosphere. To elevate personal energy, engage in singing bhajans. Consciously replace negative thoughts with positive ones to rewire the mind toward happiness. A spiritual life must be a life of joy and inspiration, rooted in the constant feeling of connection to the divine. "When bhaktas are together and singing my name, thinking on me, the Hari, the God, that divine energy comes to that place." "Satsaṅg is not an obligation, but satsaṅg is a joy."

The autobiography of Viśva Gurujī has arrived. This book is a living blessing, containing his life in his own simple words. It is a tool for learning and a source of divine influence. The evening program will provide a full introduction. For now, consider this book a profound gift to be received and experienced. Your yoga name is your second mantra, a divine replacement for your worldly name. A birth name ties you to the body and its karma, fostering ignorance. The master gives a name of God or divine qualities to shift this identification. To receive its power, you must use it and identify with it fully. A mantra or name unused is like a seed locked away, not planted. The name of God holds immense power, capable of transforming consciousness. Embrace this name as your true identification. "In the dream, Mahāprabhujī told me, 'Don’t be greedy, Mahesh. Whatever I gave you, you must pass on. You are here to give, not to take.'" "He called Nārāyaṇa, Nārāyaṇa, Nārāyaṇa. So he has to go to heaven. This is the power of God’s name." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Devotion to the Guru is the essence of spiritual practice. Chant the mantra with full belief and devotion. Feel the Guru's presence directly before you. Imagine performing the mantra at his lotus feet. His constant blessings and love shower upon all. In every beat, feel his presence and blessings arriving. Focus solely on the mantra and on the Guru. Concentrate on the Guru's lotus feet or sandals, the vehicle across the ocean of worldly existence. These sacred sandals destroy all sins, grant the wealth of discernment and dispassion, and bestow the light of knowledge and swift liberation. "Feel his presence. Imagine that Gurudev is sitting in front of you and you are doing your mantra in front of his lotus feet." "These sacred sandals destroy all sins, grant the wealth of discernment and dispassion, and bestow the light of knowledge and swift liberation."

Holy water is a gift of purification for all occasions, representing positive thought and clean energy. Physical and mental dust are constant, requiring regular cleansing like washing the hands. The body's skin is a sensitive, self-cleaning organ that must be cared for naturally. Avoid artificial products like commercial creams, lipsticks, and soaps containing alcohol, which dry and damage the skin. Use pure water, natural oils, butter, or earth instead. The physical body, the annamaya kośa, is sustained by vegetarian food and simple daily practices. Yoga āsanas and prāṇāyāma are essential for health, focusing on gentle movement over extreme postures. Strengthen bones with natural oils and ghee, not through meat consumption. Practice simple exercises regularly, even for seconds at a time, to maintain the body. True care comes from natural substances and consistent, moderate practice. "Give this to all your friends and everybody for Christmas." "Holy means the clean and have a good energy." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Evening satsang from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. Bhajan singing. Swami Umapuri says some words about her spiritual development in the Jadan Ashram. She spoke about her experiences with Yoga Nidra. She explains the bhajans of Swami Sivananda and Bhagwan Sri Deep Mahaprabhuji.

Disease arises from internalizing life's pressures, not from external forces themselves. This internal stress creates bodily pressure, a primary cause of illness. Inherited conditions also exist. The path of yoga integrates simple postures, breath control, and meditation into daily life, alongside dietary and sleep adjustments. Meditation must be approached correctly. Never strain the eyes upward, as this causes psychic problems and blocks progress. Focus gently downward or on the tip of the nose. True guidance comes from a living tradition, not solely from books. Many established religions have become blocked, relying on scripture without the living presence of the divine. The divine is within each being; every creature possesses a soul. The supreme principle is non-violence. Harming other living beings, including animals, creates suffering and negative consequences. Liberation requires aligning with this truth through compassionate living and correct inner practice. "Slowly, this internal pressure becomes the cause of many, many diseases." "Therefore, the meditation is called Nāsik, focusing on the tip of the nose. Our eyes should look gently downward." Filming location: Auckland, New Zealand

The sixth day of Navarātri honors the goddess Kātyāyanī, who embodies supreme power and devotion. Kātyāyanī was born from the combined energies of the gods to defeat the demon Mahiṣāsura. The sage Kātyāyana performed intense austerities, and the goddess incarnated as his daughter. All deities bestowed their weapons upon her, making her the slayer of Mahiṣāsura, known as Mahiṣāsuramardinī. She is the most powerful of the nine forms, easily evoked for protection from all negativity. Worship is an act of devotion that awakens divine qualities within. True worship requires preparation, humility, and aligns with one's own nature, ultimately leading to the Guru's essence, which contains everything. "She is the most powerful out of all the nine avatars, and she is the one who kills the most powerful demon." "Worship means we approach certain qualities, we awaken certain qualities in our worship, in our pūjā, in us, in ourself." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The power of language and respect shapes spiritual life. Words carry energy, influencing our inner state and relationships. A story illustrates this: a man feared the yoga pose called Śavāsana, the corpse pose. After this, the name was changed to Ānandāsana, the bliss pose, to remove fear. How we speak is crucial. We do not "take" a mantra; we may "get" it as a sacred gift, which changes our entire attitude. Modern communication often loses depth and respect, using abbreviated or vulgar language absorbed from media. This influences us subconsciously and must be guarded against. Addressing others with respectful titles, like "Devī" for a woman, cultivates different inner feelings. The manner of giving, even food, carries energy; offering with the right hand and respect changes the offering's quality. Respect extends to spiritual objects; keeping a mālā in a clean, valued place allows it to retain its energy. Physical posture also matters; sitting like a king or giving like a beggar changes the inner experience. Pronunciation in mantra is vital, as a single sound can change a word's entire meaning. "Your entire spiritual path becomes different. Yes, just try to think about this: it is a completely different approach." "If we are not aware, this will come subconsciously inside. We need to put a firewall in front of us, not to allow such thoughts and such language to become common to us." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Prāṇa is the universal life force, subtle and omnipresent, which cannot be reduced to mere breath or physical energy. It is the essence of consciousness and divinity, manifesting in all forms. Western science does not comprehend it, as prāṇa is known only through direct experience and practice. It pervades the cosmos, accumulating in objects and beings, taking on the qualities of whatever it enters. In plants, it remains pure; in animals, it assumes their consciousness. Within the human body, prāṇa differentiates into five primary functions: Prāṇa, Apāna, Samāna, Vyāna, and Udāna. These must be balanced for health and harmony. The breath is the gross vehicle for prāṇa, and through practices like prāṇāyāma, one can work with this energy. Food is a secondary source, with its prāṇic quality influenced by the three guṇas. Ultimately, prāṇa is the link between the physical and astral bodies and is identical to the soul and to God. "In every atom, there is prāṇa, life energy. Prāṇa is not to be identified with oxygen, electricity, or vitality; these are only its qualities or aspects." "Prāṇa is the link between the astral and physical body."

The refuge lies at the divine feet. By taking refuge there, one experiences supreme truth and bliss, becoming free from the cycle of birth and death. The mind finds its steady path. The Vedas and Puranas sing of this refuge. True devotion and knowledge lead to liberation. The divine name itself brings supreme happiness. The true Guru is incomparable.

A musical offering explores devotion through raga and sacred verse. The performance weaves classical composition with devotional poetry. It presents the longing of Meera, who found divine nectar in poison. It shares Kabir's metaphor of the body as a finely woven garment dyed in divine essence. The inquiry asks who truly comes and goes in this world of light and illusion. The teaching asserts that only the true Guru's name endures, while all else is transient. The offering culminates in universal salutations to the divine in all forms. "Rana ne vish diya, mano amrit piya. Mira saagar me sarita samaane lagi." "Santa, kun re āve re, kun jāye bole re? Jaari khabar karo." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic.

The path requires a true guru to cross the ocean of worldly illusion. Life is a vast ocean where one drifts aimlessly without direction. The goal is to reach the harbor of self-knowledge, called Ātmajñāna. Finding a true master removes all fear, as that realization dries up the ocean itself. One then crosses with dry feet into liberation. Love for the master's lotus feet is what truly matters, making all worldly illusion disappear. By the guru's grace, karma and illusion lose their power. "By repeating His name, one can cross the ocean of ignorance." "Whoever has the form of the guru in their heart need not fear death."

Greed destroys spiritual progress, causing a fall regardless of one's efforts. A hardworking man saw an advertisement for a magical golden egg promising wealth. Consumed by greed, he spent all his savings on it, quit his job, and isolated himself to guard it. He eventually cracked the egg, finding only an empty, painted shell. He lost everything. This illustrates how greed corrupts discernment. Another story tells of a rich man who abandoned everything to collect gold from a mythical land. He filled his bag endlessly, forgetting to eat or drink, and died there, still collecting. A true account involves a dedicated swami who left his guru to reclaim ancestral land. After selling it, he bought a motorbike and invested in a business, but met with ruin, ending up serving tea by a roadside. These stories show greed's destructive power, which can be countered by constant remembrance of the guru, not just in distress. Mantra practice requires correct technique, purity of heart, and devotion, which ultimately transcend mere rules. "It doesn’t matter how much work we do and grow higher and higher, and then one of these things comes and we roll down the mountain." "When the virus of greed comes, then we see nothing."

A true holiday is for inner contemplation, not external distraction. Ancient seekers valued solitude to reflect on life and meditate. Modern holidays often involve noise and escapism, which drown the inner voice. Spiritual progress requires revitalizing the mind through satsang and the Guru's presence. This gathering is an opportunity for solitary reflection amidst community. Utilize this time to recharge spiritual energy and leave worldly concerns behind. Unity with spiritual family provides essential support in this age. "To progress in spirituality, we need inner evolution. The only way for that is to be in satsang, to have darśan with a self-realized person, a Guru, and to be in peace." "If we want to quit a bad habit, we need a support group and must be that support for each other." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Live webcast from Melbourne, Australia. We all know the heart, the seat of love and life. Many people have problems with their hearts. I want to show you some simple exercises that are very good for the health of the heart. Practice and demonstration.

The subject is detachment and the true Self. The soul seeks to merge into oneness with the Supreme, like space containing all things. This unity is eternal but difficult, as it requires releasing all attachment. Attachment to wealth, body, and relationships creates conditions and suffering. Renunciation is challenging. One must break attachment to join with God. Nothing belongs to you—not body, thoughts, or intellect. Only the soul is eternal. When the soul departs, no one accompanies it. We must move beyond duality and concepts of "mine" to realize the true Self as boundless consciousness. This is not a mental understanding but a state of being. "I am neither the mind, intellect, nor the elements. I am that eternal blissful consciousness." "There is only one God. The duality we perceive is a human creation."
