Morning Yoga practice from the international Yoga retreat Umag, Croatia on 1st of October

A discourse on Kundalini yoga, destiny, and spiritual wisdom. "Kundalini is the Śakti, the power that directs our life. It is the dormant energy within our consciousness, connected to certain physical centers in the body." "Destiny is the product of your own actions. No one is there to be blamed. You are only yourself responsible for your destiny." Swami Satyananda Saraswati explains the nature of Kundalini as a dormant serpent power and its connection to personal destiny, which is shaped by past karma. He emphasizes the importance of acting with awareness of deśa (place) and kāla (time/circumstances) to achieve harmony and avoid problems. The talk explores the symbolism of the snake as both time/death and spiritual energy, concluding that self-realization frees one from destiny's power. Filming location: Kranj, Slovenia

Yoga in Daily Life Class of Level 3 at Sri Devpuriji Ashram, Zagreb, Croatia, January 2011

A fifth-level "Yoga in Daily Life" class focused on asana practice and breath awareness. "Everything we practice in yoga has its purpose, and if we ask ourselves why, we must receive an answer. That is why we say that yoga is the science of the body, mind, spirit, and soul." "Āsanas do not act only on the body. They are also a correction of our behavior; they act on our consciousness; they affect our entire being." An instructor guides students through a detailed session, beginning with relaxation in Ānandāsana and emphasizing the purpose behind each alignment detail for reducing stress. The class progresses through a series of asanas including Pavanamuktāsana, Marjari Āsana, Paścimottānāsana, Upaviṣṭha Koṇāsana, Jānu Śīrṣāsana, and Mṛgāsana, with continuous focus on diaphragmatic breathing, mindful movement without strain, and the physical and subtle effects of each posture.

Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Jaipur Ashram, India. Culture unites us. Real dharma is called Sanatan Dharma and it is for all. As humans spread around the world, cultures merge into each other, but some things such as mentality remain. We should follow organic farming and consume organic food. It is advisable to avoid using manipulated seeds. In our sadhana (practice) we should rise above language, nation and culture.

Satsang with Swamiji from Wellington, NZ. With the cleanness of our house we can see our inner condition. How we are keeping the ashram or the house in order, with this we can see our love and devotion. We can see if everything is in beauty. It is our inner beauty, the inner pureness, our inner clarity which is reflecting there. Doubts, desires and hidden wishes we did not clean up are spoiling our mind. If we are neglecting our sadhana, our duties, then tamas guna, the laziness takes over. It will grow more and more and we will find every self excuse for our mental pollution. Self enquiry meditation, which is taught in the Yoga in Daily life Yoga classes will help to clear up the question - not who am I but how am I. We have to search within, how is our inner world and how is our inner condition. Translation of the bhajan: Jag musafir dekh vo.

A spiritual discourse on taming the restless mind using a parable from Gurudeva. "Our mind is chanchal. Chanchal means very restless, and that is normal for a human mind, but you need to learn how to train and tame your mind." "In the same way, our minds are very restless, running around. We should just let it go; that is its job, to roam around and have thoughts continuously. Then, slowly, slowly, train your mind towards Guru Bhakti." A speaker recounts Gurudeva's parable of a king's untamable horse and the patient trainer who tamed it through gentle, persistent companionship and reward. The story serves as an analogy for taming the restless mind through devotion to the Guru and the path of Bhakti, rather than forceful suppression. The session concludes with the guided recitation and explanation of a Sanskrit mantra focused on meditating on the Supreme Self within the heart. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A spiritual discourse on the nature of God, human divinity, and traditional wisdom. "A child asks a mother or father, 'What is the horizon? How far is it?' Have you ever reached or gone to the horizon?" "Bhagavān Kṛṣṇa said to Arjuna: both are good, Nirākāra and Sākāra, the formless and with form. But he said, for you, Arjuna, it is easier to worship in form." Swami Anand Arun explores the concepts of formless (Nirākāra) and personal (Sākāra) divinity, using the analogy of the unreachable horizon. He discusses the path of worship, the significance of divine forms and symbols in Hindu tradition, and the importance of sacred language and human relationships. The talk connects these themes to the science of the cakras, the significance of Vedic rituals like marriage, and the practical application of yoga and speech in daily life. Filming location: USA
