Yoga is one unified path, though taught under many names. It extends far beyond physical postures to encompass the entire life force and consciousness. The practice integrates all aspects of nature, as seen in the 84 traditional āsanas inspired by animals and elements. This discipline is lifelong, like the breath itself, and aims to balance the body's five principles with nature. The ultimate goal is for the individual soul, or jīva, to realize its divine nature and ascend to the highest cosmic consciousness, ending the cycle of rebirth among the 8.4 million life forms. While worldly knowledge progresses outwardly, the yogi's path is an inward journey to the Self. All creatures possess the will to live, and humans must recognize the divine Ātmā within themselves and all beings, moving from identifying with the limited drop to merging with the boundless ocean. "Yoga is not only physical, for the physical body, or just breath and concentration, etc. Yoga is very far-reaching." "Your soul, your ātmā in you is your God." Filming location: Slovenska, Slovenia

Haṭha Yoga's essence is the six purification techniques, or Ṣaṭkarma, for cleansing the body and balancing energy. Our polluted modern environment necessitates these natural cleansings using water, salt, and air. These practices purify the physical system and uniquely influence the vegetative nervous system, which is typically beyond our control. The goal is to balance the Iḍā and Piṅgalā energy channels, allowing the central Suṣumnā to flow. This mastery brings many benefits, fostering willpower and overcoming inertia. Regular purification, especially during seasonal changes, removes metabolic waste that causes illness and stagnation, keeping energy flowing. Specific techniques like Netī cleanse the nasal passages, while Agni Sāra and Naulī stoke the digestive fire. These are potent tools that require proper guidance from an experienced teacher regarding the correct method and timing. "Haṭha Yoga is not only that we clean and purify our whole system, our whole body, but it also has a great, very great effect on our nervous system, especially the vegetative nervous system." "When they are balanced, then the third one, the Suṣumnā Nāḍī, will start to flow." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Linz, Austria. An instrument is a simple construction, but it can give very beautiful sounds. Our body is also like an instrument. We are free to do good or bad things. From our childhood we can develop in good or bad direction also. The story of a tiger baby who mixed among the sheeps. Everybody should know why we shouldn't to eat meat. Bhajan singing.

The path is to be present, letting go of past and future. You have practiced and received knowledge. Our way is to be relaxed and normal, not straining or focusing oddly. What we seek is to know the Self. We follow a given path but must understand it ourselves. We are human with knowledge, yet we do not know what comes after this life. Do not dwell on the past; it is gone like an exhale. We often live in memories or future thoughts, not in the present. Suffering in the present will not last. We must come into our heart and thoughts to be one. Forget the past; your future path will be good. What you have now is here; do not lose it by grasping for more. "Do not meditate and concentrate on what is gone; learning is gone." "The past is gone. The present is here. But you think, 'In the future, I will also get this.' But you will not get it."

Yoga Nidra is a state of conscious sleep, a deep relaxation with full awareness. Prepare by finding a comfortable position to remain motionless. Begin by forming a Śaṅkalpa, a positive resolve for yourself and others, repeating it three times. Relax the body completely through a detailed scan from the toes to the crown of the head. Bring awareness to the breath, feeling the prāṇa flow in the abdomen, chest, and throat. Listen to the inner sound of the breath, so'ham. Conclude by reaffirming your Śaṅkalpa three times, then gradually return awareness to the body and the surroundings. "Try to remain motionless throughout the entire practice, not moving, while at the same time staying awake and not falling asleep." "Relax completely, but remain fully aware, conscious of the energy flow." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

Nutrition must be understood from a holistic perspective beyond mere physical components. Four essential qualities define proper nourishment: the energetic and vitamin content, the individual quantity consumed, the food's inherent vitality, and the spiritual surroundings of the meal, such as prayer. The common view focuses only on vitamins and minerals, neglecting mental and psychic needs. The example of those living on prāṇa demonstrates that most energy does not come from food. The body can transform environmental energy directly. Therefore, one needs less food and more prāṇa. Individualization is key; eat only what the body signals it needs. This turns eating into a tool for self-knowledge. Mindful eating, concentrating solely on the food and its journey, allows the body to signal satiety accurately. Quality is vital; reduce animal products significantly for health and environmental reasons. Process foods properly, like soaking lentils, to enhance vitality and remove antinutrients. Rely on your body's perception to navigate modern food complexities, as it is the most reliable guide. "What prevents understanding of nutrition is the angle of perspective from which we look at food." "God gave us the nutrition and food only to observe ourselves, to get to know ourselves."

The primordial sound Oṁ connects all humanity through its varied pronunciations across traditions. Scriptures state the universe began with this sound. As it traveled, the vibration transformed into "Amen" and "Āmīn" in other faiths, revealing a universal connection. This symbol is a gift for all mankind. A restless mind is like a monkey snatching a banana. The struggle continues as long as one holds on. The teaching is to let go. Place the banana down; the monkey takes it peacefully and calms down. Similarly, stop wrestling with thoughts. Surrender them. Practices like meditation and devotion slow the mind. A peaceful mind resides in the present, reducing stress and increasing bliss. True peace comes from surrendering all expectations to the Master. "The easiest option is to let go, put it down, and allow the mind to become peaceful." "Gurudev, you do what you are doing."

The beauty of life is found in its natural state, not in artificial enhancements. Nature displays a beautiful spectrum of color and age. Fashion and chemical products like makeup stem from desire, which hinders higher consciousness. These items are expensive, full of chemicals, and create dependency while damaging the skin. Yoga practice regenerates the body, improves circulation, and supports glands and organs. Natural oils like sesame or olive oil are healthy for the skin, unlike blocking creams. Our diet is crucial; natural foods are needed as the body will produce what it lacks. Avoid excessive meat, linked to cancer, and processed foods. Dedicate time daily to yoga and prāṇāyāma for health, happiness, and true beauty that comes from within. "Fashion kills people... As long as you have desire, you cannot proceed towards higher consciousness." "Yoga regenerates our body, the cells, our skin. It is great support for our gland systems, organs, and blood circulation." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The divine principle of Śiva embodies the universal balance between opposing forces. All traditions worship the one God, who manifests through various forms. Śiva represents the conscious force that maintains equilibrium between positive and negative energies, which coexist in all creation—humans, animals, and nature. These dualities are inherent from birth, like twins with different natures, yet both are sustained within a greater harmony. Our spiritual practice involves recognizing and balancing these inner forces. Physical balance exercises are a direct method to cultivate this inner stability, aligning body, mind, and spirit. Focused postures and breath work prepare us for deeper meditation, fostering contentment and peace. "One side is what we call the sāttvic and spirituals, the holies... But the others also have that; they are very much doing wrong things, fighting. Yet both have to be balanced, like birth and death." "In each and every creature, there are two—negative and positive. Not only in humans, but also in other creatures—animals, trees, fish, and everything—they have that nature and are working with it." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The oneness of service and the soul is our essential truth. Everyone is equal and should be included in practices like pūjā. Give all the opportunity to learn and participate. The altar holds God, so service there is for God. Maintain cleanliness and respect traditional considerations. We are one family, so provide for basic needs like food without emphasis on money. Daily work and satsaṅg are for everyone, like the sun shines for all. God provides for all creatures. At life's end, the soul returns to oneness, beyond religious labels. We originate from and return to the divine ocean like drops of water. Our inner life is God's life. Respect all beings and see the good within. "One in all and all in one." "The ocean is the ocean. We all will come in oneness, and we will come to the ocean again." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

Haṭha Yoga is a supreme path requiring correct practice. The techniques of nauli and basti are essential for purifying the digestive system. A proper diet is foundational: eat vegetarian meals every five to six hours, leaving space in the stomach, and fast overnight. This physical purification supports the higher goal where the conscious self masters the body, not the reverse. True practice transcends mere physical techniques or brief study; it demands lifelong guidance from a genuine master. Theoretical knowledge alone is insufficient, like holding a speck of dust compared to the mountain of practical wisdom. The aim is complete independence, where one desires nothing, not even from the divine. "Leave space for solid food, liquid food, and what we call liquid—also water. Give the stomach some empty space." "If you want to give me something, then I wish you would just go away from here." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The seeker's path requires unwavering concentration and balance, like walking a tightrope or a crane standing on one leg in water. Human life is a rare opportunity for this learning. The journey involves cycles, represented by the numbers one through nine, leading back to zero to begin again. Worldly attachments and happiness are transient, like messages in a ring stating "this will also go." True progress comes from Guru's grace, which purifies the seeker through and through, not merely by external signs. The Divine Mother, as Kuṣmāṇḍā, generated the universe from a cosmic egg with her smile, creating the trinity of Mahākālī, Mahālakṣmī, and Mahāsarasvatī. Liberation while living is possible, but it requires removing the cycle of birth and death to avoid the torment of cosmic dissolution. "This will also go. This will go." "I have colored you already. This cloth to color is nothing, but I have colored you completely through and through." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

We are the essence of Śiva, Śakti, and the Guru. From primordial space emerged three elements: space, air, and fire, associated with Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. Śiva and Śakti are one unified power, with Śakti as the dynamic force and Śiva as the conscious principle, manifesting as duality within a single body. This power is in all things. The five elements—water, earth, fire, air, and space—are alive and conscious. Our individual ātmā is like a drop from the ocean of universal consciousness; we are never separate. Everyone is a guru, as a guru is one who imparts knowledge, from a parent to a teacher. All spiritual paths and rituals, like holy water, connect to this one power. Do not reject helpers like doctors, for we may need them. True knowledge unites the scientist and the spiritual guru. "Śiva and Śakti, Śakti is the power, great, everything, and the other is that Śiva." "We are all one, and we have one heart here and our ātmā here." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

Worldly joy is fleeting and contains hidden sorrow, but divine joy is endless. Human happiness is brief and intertwined with suffering, for every gain conceals equal or greater pain. Only the Supreme One's joy is boundless. An incarnate liberator provides a living refuge beyond scriptures. Merely reading teachings without following them brings no solution. True peace is found not in escape but in unwavering devotion to that divine source. "Blessed is the land where the Divine Soul incarnates, Satguru Dev." "We are those birds. We want to fly away... Again, only in God can we come and rest." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 183b

Yoga is the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness, achieved through harmony and balance. The cosmic energy governs the universe, and this principle of union was discovered by ancient yogis. The individual soul is a spark of the divine light, present in all life. We originate from the cosmic sound and are composed of the five elements. Our journey involves many births, guided by karma, as the soul moves through forms and relations. The human body contains dormant energy centers called chakras, connected by 72,000 channels. Three primary channels—Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna—regulate energy, mind, and activity, converging at key points to form the chakras. These centers correspond to the elements and levels of consciousness, from the earthly Muladhara to the divine Sahasrara. Activating these centers through practice leads toward liberation. "Yoga means union—the union of the individual consciousness with the cosmic consciousness." "What is existing in the universe is existing in your body." Filming location: Croatia DVD 182a

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Vep, Hungary. Practicing Bhramari Pranayama. Vishwaguruji demonstrates how to sit, how to keep our body, how to practice well. Chanting Om.

The world is a temporary gathering, a two-day festival of constant change. We observe this flux in nature's cycles, yet resist it within ourselves, seeking permanent safety. This impermanence encompasses everything; nothing in this mortal construction remains. We inherently know of something everlasting within our own Self, yet foolishly search for permanence in external, transient possessions like wealth and home. This outer search is part of the divine play of coming and going. The guidance is to turn inward through meditation and repetition of God's name, for only there lies the unchanging. The Guru is the giver who bestows immortality, his greatness felt through his radiance though he behaves ordinarily. Through the Guru's grace, exemplified by figures like Mahāprabhujī, devotees receive blessings, healing, and ultimate liberation. The saint's divine energy remains accessible, permeating the dense layers of reality, as the universe is consciousness and energy. "When I meditated on my Satguru, I got mokṣa."

The path is inner realization through the guru's grace and dedicated practice. All religions lead to one God. The breath is our primary nourishment. The guru provides the wisdom and practices to realize the Self, burning karma and ignorance. Meeting the guru gives life its true aim, reducing inner fear. Disciples gather in satsaṅg, which transforms consciousness like sandalwood perfumes nearby trees. The guru embodies the highest Self, appearing as a friend while guiding from absolute consciousness. Practice purifies the energy system so consciousness may glimpse reality beyond the mind's coverings. Worldly life is enjoyed but seen as transient from that higher state. Liberation comes by dissolving attachments and ego through mantra and purification, joining a thread of pure awareness. "My concentration, all my awareness, everything is at the holy feet of my divine master."

The 2nd Sri Swami Maheshwarananda Festival from Villach, Austria.

The disciple must never abandon the need for the guru or the teachings, for that is the gravest error. The guru is the principle that leads from ignorance to knowledge. This Guru Tattva is the essential diamond, not the physical form, yet it is embodied to provide tangible guidance. God aids the seeker by sending the guru, who is thus revered as indispensable. The aim is to merge the individual self with the cosmic Self, like a river entering the ocean. This is the Advaita understanding, where the one supreme reality is reflected in all individuals. This merging is the true purpose of yoga, achieved through the guru's grace and teachings. The embodied form concentrates this divine energy, making darśana transformative. The state beyond the three guṇas is inexpressible; it can only be pointed to as 'not this, not that.' "The moment you think you know everything, very soon you will find yourself asking, 'Where are the bricks? Where is the parachute?'" "God will send your friend with the boat. And the Guru is here."

The origin of life and the path of dharma are revealed through ancient wisdom. In the beginning, there was only water. The gods decided to create the earth, which was brought forth from the ocean. Life emerged from the waters, with creatures evolving and moving onto land. The principle of existence was established: all living beings sustain themselves by consuming other life. This is the natural law. From this state, humans were created. With humanity came the knowledge of dharma and adharma. Dharma is to live spiritually, to care for all and avoid killing. Adharma is to live like animals, consuming without conscience, which bars the path to the divine. The human form and consciousness ultimately originate from the divine source, symbolized by the navel of Vishnu and the emerging lotus. One must not depend on others but become self-reliant, as God provides everything. Practice sādhanā, see all as equal, and live without harming others. Consider the impact of your consumption and actions on the world. "Jīv, jīv, bhakṣate: all living life, they are eating each other." "Dharma is spirituality and good, not killing anyone. Take care of everyone." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
