1:00 - 1:57 (57 min)
Recorded on
A guided yoga session with detailed instructions and corrections for group synchronization. "Make your neck long; do not shorten it. Stabilize your lower back with your belly muscles." "Śaśāṅkāsana is very, very good for our digestion. It works immediately, also for children." An instructor leads a group through a series of yoga poses, including leg lifts, Śaśāṅkāsana (Rabbit Pose), Uttānapṛṣṭhāsana (a trunk-lifting pose), and a variation of Marjari (Cat Pose) on the forearms. The session focuses on precise alignment, breath coordination, and repeatedly attempts to get all participants to move in unison. It concludes with relaxation and permission to drink water.

Our origin is in God
2:05 - 2:46 (41 min)
Recorded on
The soul enters a body, which is surrounded by five sheaths. The physical Annamaya Kośa is made from earth, water, fire, air, and space. All creatures contain the same life force, or jīva. Life operates in a cycle where one life consumes another; this is driven by an inner fire, like hunger. This cycle is often seen as sin or adharma. The ethical path is to avoid harming others, not to retaliate, and to practice forgiveness. Ultimately, concepts like heaven and hell are merely different realms of existence. The five sheaths—Annamaya, Prāṇamaya, Manomaya, Vijñānamaya, and Ānandamaya—envelop the self. Moving beyond them leads to an unknown path. The goal is to return to the singular, formless divine source from which all beings originate. "Life will kill life. But who and how? So another part of God said, I will give you. What? Fire. What is that fire? In the stomach, that is hunger." "If someone is angry or something, and he will give you a slap on your face, then don’t give back, but tell the other side, 'Please, if you want, you can have also from here.'"

Eat healthy food and live as a human
2:50 - 3:33 (43 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on prayer, lifestyle, and simple daily remembrance. "Morning, midday, evening—always the whole family, women, men, and children. When they sat at the table to eat, they would pray." "When we open our eyes, then tell, 'I am human.'... And then, second, don't look at animals and this and that first. Mother, mother. So see our mother." The lecturer reflects on the decline of traditional prayer across religions and its connection to modern societal problems. He discusses dietary shifts, including the rise of veganism, and critiques modern agriculture's impact on the earth. He concludes with a simple daily practice: upon waking, remember "I am human," honor Mother Earth, and reverence water as life. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Chakras, Nadis and Kundalini
5:00 - 5:39 (39 min)
Recorded on
Chakras are rotating circles of energy within the body, representing major energy centers. They are symbolic, not literal anatomical structures. Thousands exist at the junctions of the nāḍīs, the body's nerve network. This system exists for the soul's journey, supported by five bodily sheaths and the five elements. The three main channels are the Iḍā (Moon, mind/emotion), Piṅgalā (Sun, action/temperament), and central Suṣumnā. Their intersections form powerful chakras, like the Viśuddhi at the throat for purification. The mind is a messenger between senses and intellect; do not block it, but give it direction. Problems arise from suppressed emotions, which can manifest as physical illness. Practices like prāṇāyāma maintain this network for health. Awakening energies like kuṇḍalinī requires great care, as improper handling can be harmful. "These chakras are a methodological representation. You will not see this exact picture if you look within your own body." "The mind is a river; we should not block it. If we block a dam, we must provide an outlet." Filming location: London, UK
Supporters on the Spiritual Path
5:45 - 6:53 (68 min)
Recorded on
The path from the Mūlādhāra to the Svādhiṣṭhāna chakra is about mastering foundational qualities and overcoming obstacles. Human life offers the unique intellect to transcend the cycle of birth and death dictated by karma. Spiritual practice is not just meditation but cultivating inner qualities like humility, kindness, and forgiveness. The five primary obstacles are passion, anger, greed, attachment, and ego. To defeat them, one must develop five spiritual techniques: detachment, renunciation, devotion, right knowledge, and mercy. These qualities reside in the heart. The Mūlādhāra chakra is the solid foundation of spiritual longing. The Svādhiṣṭhāna chakra, associated with the water element and emotions, presents six new obstacles: anger, hate, greed, jealousy, cruelty, and laziness. Its energy is powerful but can be destructive if not mastered with the positive qualities. Awakening higher consciousness requires harmonizing these elements within. "Love each and every entity, if not more, then that much, as much as you love thyself." "The roots of dharma is mercy, and the roots of sin is ego." Filming location: Vancouver, Canada
The hatha yogi wants to live a long and healthy life
7:00 - 7:51 (51 min)
Recorded on
The path of the Haṭha Yogī integrates natural remedies and disciplined practice for health. Neem leaf powder can heal stubborn wounds quickly, as a personal account confirms. Babool fruit soaked in water aids with hormonal and glandular issues after a certain age. Neem also serves as an effective, natural pesticide to which pests do not develop resistance. Neem seeds, ground into a paste, strengthen hair roots. A true Haṭha Yogī renounces laziness, the enemy compared to the tamas guṇa of a lethargic python. Key practices include Agni Sāra Kriyā and Nauli to stoke digestive fire, prevent diabetes, and purify the body. A yogī should perform cleansing techniques like śaṅkha prakṣālana regularly. Contrary to some teachings, garlic is beneficial; it cleanses gases and supports the heart, liver, and eyesight, and observed aggression often lies in those who avoid it. The yogī's goal is a long, healthy life with a clean, resilient body, free from disease through fasting and purification. "During the night, so I can say in the morning, the wound was completely closed." "The biggest enemy of the human is laziness." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
Mind and chakras
7:55 - 8:20 (25 min)
Recorded on
The mind functions as a pendulum between the conscious and subconscious levels. Our awake, conscious state receives information through the five senses. These present-moment impressions are immediately transferred to the subconscious, a storeroom of all past experiences from this life. These stored impressions generate desires, or vāsanā. Intense desires rise from the subconscious into the conscious mind. The intellect gives form and judgment to these desires. Unfulfilled conscious desires return to the subconscious, often re-emerging in dreams. If they remain unfulfilled even there, they lose their formed connection to the intellect and become formless psychic problems, manifesting as anxiety or restlessness. Do not block the flow of mind and desire like a dammed river, as this causes psychic disturbance. Instead, direct the mind through self-discipline by controlling the senses and limiting desires. The mind is changeable like the moon, connected to emotion and the water element. Balance between emotion, intellect, and consciousness is essential. Energy channels, or nāḍīs, interact at energy centers called chakras. The subconscious is linked to the svādhiṣṭhāna chakra. Lower chakras relate to animalistic qualities, while higher chakras relate to divine consciousness. Unresolved psychic problems are often lodged in these lower centers. "Impressions and desires are like a river flowing constantly. You should not block the river." "Self-discipline means to direct your mind, your desires, your ambition... in that particular direction." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Yoga in Daily Life: Health Promotion in the Czech Republic
12:00 - 12:13 (13 min)
Recorded on
Yoga in Daily Life systematically promotes health in the Czech Republic. The system began here in 1973, based on the traditional concept of Vedānta. It offers training on four levels: physical, mental, social, and spiritual, for everyone regardless of background. This aligns with the national health strategy, which now explicitly includes spiritual health. New government action plans until 2020 target areas where yoga can directly contribute: promoting physical activity, proper nutrition, mental health, reducing risky behaviors, and mitigating environmental stress. The system's sophisticated, methodology-unique techniques make it suitable for research and intervention programs, with publications available for specific health groups. The association has grown to become the largest in the country, with a widespread network of centers offering lessons. "The state belongs to those that allow and highly appreciate cooperation with public, private, and non-governmental organizations." "This harmonizing of the physical, mental, social, and spiritual level, is truly the only chance to keep peace and development in our society." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

Yoga is One
13:00 - 13:31 (31 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual talk on the principles and practice of yoga in daily life. "Yoga is the yoga. It’s the yoga, that’s all then. There’s nothing else." "Yoga in daily life... means we should practice every day. That’s all. And that is for everyone, whether they are Hindus, Muslims, Christians, or anybody." The speaker addresses a group, holding up the system's foundational book. He emphasizes that true yoga requires daily practice according to these teachings, not just theoretical knowledge. He discusses the importance of ethical living, notably vegetarianism, criticizes the dilution of yoga by other systems, and urges a return to disciplined, foundational practice. The talk meanders through topics including dietary rules, the global spread of yoga, and personal anecdotes. Filming location: Austria
Learning in the Gurukul
13:35 - 14:11 (36 min)
Recorded on
The Gurukul provides traditional education rooted in Indian culture and spirituality, distinct from modern commercial systems. Education began with the ṛṣis, and the first university was Takshilā in India. Our Gurukul adopts students as Jñānaputra, offering free education. The ancient Pītāmbara uniform symbolizes purity and focus. True education is cultural, ethical, and spiritual, not merely for earning money. Knowledge itself is an imperishable wealth. Sanskrit is the mother of most languages, and Indian culture spread globally. The Gurukul system was dismantled under British rule, replaced by a limited English system. We now blend modern competitiveness with foundational morality, teaching why to use knowledge, not just how. Education must be daily and consistent, like eating. Supporters make this possible. "Knowledge itself is an imperishable wealth. From the hand, you can steal money... but in the mind, the knowledge, no one can take it." "We have to have modern education to be competitive in this world. But still, on top of that, Gurudev is trying to put one more layer, which was actually there before."

Self is happiness
14:15 - 14:53 (38 min)
Recorded on
The sense of life is to become happy and free from past suffering and karma. Satsaṅg is the best way to attain this peace. Our inner self, which seeks happiness, is a part of God. We often search for this self externally, but it cannot be found that way. To understand God and oneself, one must attend satsaṅg and study the scriptures. Yoga is the union of the self with the Cosmic Self. All who take physical form, even God, must endure certain sufferings according to cosmic law. We are here due to our karma, while God incarnates by free decision, yet He too must accept difficulties, sometimes due to curses. Even a great devotee like Nārada once cursed Viṣṇu, causing Him to incarnate again. This occurs when one's intellect becomes confused. We must always pray for positive intellect. "If the self is searching for the self somewhere, we will never find it anywhere." "The difference between us and God is that we came to the world because of our karma, and He came according to His own decision." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 155b
Yoga for the physical body and beyond
15:00 - 15:22 (22 min)
Recorded on
Yoga's global rise signals a return to spirituality, which encompasses all of life, not just religion or meditation. The last century's wars fostered a materialistic mindset focused on money, creating distance between people and even within families. Many now practice yoga only for physical fitness, and some teachers compete in wealth, which is contrary to yoga's non-competitive essence. True yoga is a simple, accessible practice from birth to liberation, not about difficult postures that can cause long-term injury. Learning correctly requires a genuine master and lineage. We have verified our spiritual roots and lineage. We must protect sacred natural places from human pollution, which is particularly damaging. "Spirituality means not only doing meditation, but encompasses everything." "Yoga is from the mother’s womb until liberation, and it should be a very easy practice." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

We should have God in our heart
20:55 - 22:16 (81 min)
Recorded on
True preparation is not about temporary arrangements but about cultivating a presence that comes from within. We often prepare external things, like a meal, which are consumed and gone. Real knowledge, however, is not read from a paper; it flows from the heart and mind as one's own. Many rely on prepared speeches, lacking true understanding. Different cultures express presence differently, but the core is sincerity. Lasting wisdom is not found in lectures we forget but in stories that live in the heart. True devotion, not mere scholarship, grants real power, as seen in one who walked on water through faith alone. We must integrate our physical, energetic, and mental layers. Life is singular; do not be scattered. True union, like that of Śiva and Śakti, represents ultimate harmony. Enduring traditions, like a respectful greeting with empty hands, express a pure welcome. Ultimately, we are not labels like Hindu or Muslim, but humans capable of love. "Many politicians have no knowledge. They say, 'I don't see,' but their secretaries... prepare a very nice talk and give it to the minister, who then reads it." "The story will never forget... But you give the whole lecture... and we cannot read in the book. The book is just to learn it, and then go within ourselves." Filming location: Auckland, New Zealand
