A guided gentle yoga class focusing on breath and alignment. "Pavanamuktāsana is excellent for digestion."

The guidance emphasizes anatomical awareness, the benefits for circulation and focus, and connects the physical practice to the cleansing of the nāḍīs for prāṇic flow.

A satsang featuring spiritual stories and teachings on renunciation, ego, and the pitfalls on the spiritual path. "Seeing you all the time indulged in these materialistic activities and always enjoying your life makes me sad." "If you have ego, envy, or jealousy towards anything or anyone, then you get stuck in this māyā." The lecturer narrates two primary parables. The first tells of King Gopichand, who renounces his kingdom at his mother's request and learns the true meaning of his mother's three advices for monastic life. The second, a cautionary tale, describes a powerful muni whose intense tapasya is destroyed by rising ego and desire, ultimately exploited by Kamadeva. The speaker weaves in related teachings, including a story of Lord Rama delivering justice to a dog, to emphasize controlling anger, speech, and the dangers of ego.

The lecturer addresses a gathering, expounding on the fundamental unity of all beings using the metaphor of raindrops merging into the ocean. He shares a parable of a yogi and a skeptical professor to illustrate divine wisdom, and recounts personal stories and a disciple's dream about their guru, Swami Madhavanandji Bhagavan, emphasizing the eternal bond beyond physical presence.

A spiritual discourse on the purpose of pilgrimage and the nature of yoga. "You have come from a long distance, but you are not tired. Why are you not tired? Because you were coming here to Mahāprabhujī's ashram." "Holy Gurujī said, 'One in all and all in one.' This means we came from different ways... but we have all come here and become one now." A speaker welcomes visitors to the ashram, emphasizing the spiritual energy of the place and the unity of the gathering. The discourse then expands into a wide-ranging exploration of yoga, defining it not merely as physical practice but as the fundamental unity underlying all existence, from the cosmic emergence of Śiva from Parabrahma Paramātmā to the ethical principle of non-violence (ahiṃsā) exemplified by the Buddha. Stories of the Buddha and a devoted princess named Sundarī are shared to illustrate the path of purification and knowledge. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Swami Avatarpuri opens a gathering in Wellington by honoring Mahatma Gandhi, illustrating his principles of renunciation, truth, and leading by example with personal anecdotes. Following his talk, other speakers, including a diplomat and members of the Yoga in Daily Life community, share reflections on Gandhi's legacy, connecting it to themes of peace (śānti), prayer, non-violence, and the embodiment of spiritual love in daily life and service.

The Power of Tapasyā: Pārvatī's Resolve
15:15 - 16:03 (48 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse narrating the story of Pārvatī's resolve to perform tapasyā (austerity) and explaining its power. "Tapasya is the giver of happiness and the remover of all troubles." "Through the power of tapasyā, Brahmā is able to create this world. Through the power of that tapasyā... Viṣṇu is able to protect the world. And through that power of tapasyā, Śiva, is able to destroy all the negative powers." The speaker recounts how Pārvatī, consoling her mother Mēnā, describes a dream in which a Brāhmaṇa instructs her to undertake severe spiritual austerity, affirming the truth of sage Nārada's words. The narrative details the immense power of tapasyā, using the examples of the Hindu trinity and Śeṣanāga, and describes Pārvatī's subsequent journey into the forest for a prolonged, extreme penance to attain Lord Śiva. The discourse frequently shifts to address a modern audience directly, exhorting them to cultivate similar willpower in their own sādhanā (practice) to overcome mental obstacles and attachments.

"By always contemplating His name with grace, desire, anger, and greed are cut down." The speaker offers praise to Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Mahāprabhujī, described as a divine incarnation. The central theme is that constant remembrance and contemplation of this divine name serves as a vehicle for liberation, protecting devotees from worldly afflictions and illusion, and immersing them in divine absorption.
