We should be good for others
0:15 - 0:43 (28 min)
A cold night in a forest reveals our fundamental unity and compassion. I recall a family sheltering animals from the cold, embodying selfless care. This contrasts with a world pursuing material gain and harming life, as in hospitals. True yoga is not mere exercise but daily kindness to all beings, aligning with our inner goodness. We are interconnected; anger and negativity harm this unity. By returning to thoughts of the divine guide within, we cultivate inner beauty and purity. In this challenging age, we must remain strong, help others, and recognize we are all one essence.
"Try to thank you, to thank you all the times."

Yoga in Daily Life in India
0:50 - 1:23 (33 min)
Evening satsang with Mahamandaleshwar Swami Gyaneshwarpuriji.from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Sharing a few things about Yoga in Daily Life in India. Yoga classes are held in Ashrams, now we want to introduce Yoga in Daily Life for everyday life. When they hear the name of Vishwaguruji, everything turns to good. We are conducting seminars in more and more universities in India. We are publishing a magazine called Vishwa Deep Divya Sandesh, each month.
Try to be nirmohi
1:30 - 2:06 (36 min)
The Earth suffers from human exploitation, and our food has been destroyed by the loss of natural seeds and chemical pollution. We have dug coal, diverted water, and injected chemicals, making the mother suffer. Seeds that once lasted for generations now must be bought anew, and our vegetables are tasteless and dangerous. Educated people have ruined everything. Many diseases arise from this corrupted food. Yet, some are returning to cultivate good seeds at home. We must detach from worldly attachments to move toward the Supreme. Attachment, or moha, is the heaviest obstacle to self-realization. Discipline and satsang are the paths to remove this attachment. A story of a detached king illustrates that true renunciation means no attachment, even to family. Our senses and mind constantly seek more, but we must direct the mind through satsang and wisdom to control attachment while in the body.
"Holy Gurujī used to say that Bhagavān Viṣṇu put seva and mokṣa in a scale. And the scale of seva was much heavier than mokṣa."
"Attachment will always be as long as we have this physical body, as long as the indriyas are active. There will always be. But we should know this: that we wake our wisdom to know and to decide."

Our life is a chance
2:10 - 3:00 (50 min)
The destiny of the jīva cycles through realms from Brahmaloka to the human form. Brahmaloka is a unified state beyond the duality of heaven and hell. From this state, divine forces manifested the earth and the 8.4 million life forms. These creatures, though mute, possess awareness and remember God in their own way. Humans alone are endowed with discriminative intellect, yet often act with greater cruelty than animals. All existence operates on the principle that life consumes life. One's actions, especially harming other creatures, generate karma that must be experienced. This human birth is a rare opportunity; one must not squander it by living solely for sensory pleasure like an animal. Govern your body as a king governs a kingdom, abandoning harmful habits that destroy it.
"Eating, drinking, and enjoying, animals can also do. Oh, man, men, humans. If you are doing only this, then what is the difference between you and animals?"
"How many animals have you eaten? How many goats have you eaten? The many goats you have eaten in your life—first, you have to come into life as a goat and let your throat be given."

A refreshing wind signals progress as we prepare for the temple's opening in four months, a short time when busy. The leader's presence accelerates the work, though daily changes are subtle until seen from afar. This completion is a divine achievement of a great vision, yet it is not an end but a step in perpetual creation. Our role is to participate and support, for every small action has effect. This place transforms the land and society, carrying a universal vibration. We must invite skilled helpers to share in this work for future generations, a gift for all humanity to draw nearer to the divine.

Mother and father
3:35 - 4:05 (30 min)
The mother is primary, her connection to the child is fundamental and sacrificial. A mother carries the child and will protect it above all else, even at her own physical peril. The father provides and is good, but the mother's bond is immediate and profound. One must have good children and be good parents. Current difficulties arise when parents did not act properly. The spiritual practice involves the navel center, which originates from the father's seed but is received and known by the mother's body. From a single seed comes great growth.
"A mother is a mother. For the child, she is very humble and very good."
"The nābhi is which came from the father... but the mother, she was feeling that my child is in something, in my body, yes. Father doesn't know, he cannot understand, but she knows."

The grace flows from Mahāprabhujī to his disciple, Maṅgīlālji. All revered beings are manifestations. When Maṅgīlālji requested his mantra, Mahāprabhujī declared he had no need, calling him the greatest. All are disciples regardless of origin. The complete ones are as described: life is essentially just two, Śiva and Rāma. Maṅgīlālji, made of Rāma, is above all and is a Jīvan Mukta. That liberated state is the ultimate goal for which one must strive. Blessings flow from their mantra.

Ganesji Doha
4:45 - 5:24 (39 min)
The auspicious invocation calls upon the remover of obstacles to begin any work. In this tradition, Gaṇeśa is the Guru. This bhajan is a request from the holy Gurujī for Gaṇeśa to remove obstacles in writing bhajan books. Gaṇeśa, the elephant-headed deity, symbolizes wisdom embodied. He resides in the Mūlādhāra Cakra, subduing past karmic influences to allow a fresh start. The bhajan uses many names for Gaṇeśa, such as Gajānanda and Gaṇarāja, praising him as the lord of Śiva's attendants. The ultimate intent is a camouflaged invocation to Mahāprabhujī. The final line reveals this, requesting the service of his lotus feet, which translates to serving all beings, exemplified by adopting a vegetarian diet.
"Gajānanda Ānanda Mūrti, Kṛpākaro Mahārāj."

We can change the world together
5:30 - 6:26 (56 min)
Conscious consumption is imperative for health and spiritual integrity. Many now consume insects and altered foods, a practice spreading globally. This causes physical harm, as foreign substances introduce problems into the body. We lack the proper enzymes to digest such matter, leading to potential blockages and disease. The food system contains hidden ingredients, with labeling often absent in restaurants. Market forces alone are insufficient, as some insect-based products are now cheap and popular. Collective endurance and personal action are required. Cook at home using known, raw ingredients to ensure purity. Unity and sustained refusal to buy harmful products can change industry practices. Historical movements succeeded through shared sacrifice and will. Your health and autonomy depend on what you choose to consume.
"To digest such matter, we would need a special enzyme which we do not have."
"The best food for our health is no-label food."

Yoga is One
6:30 - 7:01 (31 min)
Yoga is the practice of yoga in daily life. Many have taken the teachings and given them other names, but what they offer for practice is often incomplete. True yoga requires full discipline, not merely physical exercises. A core principle is non-harming; one must not eat meat or consume alcohol. Many modern adaptations accommodate rather than uphold these standards. Our comprehensive books provide the correct path. The practice is for everyone, regardless of background, but it demands daily commitment to the entire teaching, not just discussion. We must return to the authentic beginning and proceed step by step.

Where can we see God?
7:05 - 8:16 (71 min)
The divine journey seeks God within creation and the self. We profess belief yet cannot see God directly, only witnessing the supreme's creation in all entities. Humans possess intellect surpassing animals, yet still fail to understand or honor this creation, even in elements like water which is life. Self-realized masters may represent God, but the ultimate search continues within, obscured by many covers. We often disappoint the divine, as illustrated by the story of the bamboo asked to sacrifice for a greater purpose, teaching that God works to remove our ego, pride, and cruelty. Another tale of a climber demanding proof shows that trust requires surrendering control, not bargaining. True devotion means recognizing God within every creature and oneself. Practice like prāṇāyāma purifies the nervous system and balances the body's energies through the chakras, promoting health and harmony. This science of yoga advises moderation, natural living, and releasing negative emotions to maintain well-being.
"God is within us. God is within us and in every creature."

Around the world - YIDL at he Sziget Festival Budapest 2011
10:00 - 10:05 (5 min)
Yoga is offered as a sanctuary within a large music festival. For eleven years, we provide a daily practice, showing festival-goers how to relax deeply. Many newcomers try yoga here for the first time. We adapt to the fast-paced environment by offering 20-25 minute sessions tailored to individual requests for rest, asana, or meditation. Initial interest often comes from seeing dynamic asana practice. We always begin with simple, grounding exercises, not advanced postures. We emphasize preserving the tradition's purity and spirituality, contrasting with the popular strength-based styles. Our presence in this community space is essential, as many might not seek out a dedicated center. People practice even amidst loud music, achieving a withdrawal of the senses. This demonstrates that deep relaxation is possible anywhere.
"Based on this, our prepared yoga instructors tailor the session accordingly."
"The astonishing experience we have is that at most they achieve pratyāhāra, the withdrawal of the senses, so that they are absolutely undisturbed by what is happening outside."

10:20 - 10:25 (5 min)
Yoga in Everyday Life is a system of practice for daily living. We demonstrate its aspects at events like the Vegetarian Festival. The practice involves paying attention to bodily sensations, which connects you to vitality carried by circulation and prāṇa. The system offers recommendations, with a vegetarian lifestyle being foremost. It is not enough to merely be vegetarian; one must also move, exercise, practice prāṇāyāma, and relax. This philosophy aims first for good health, suggesting many troubles originate from the stomach and the sense of taste. Managing this is possible through the master yoga system. Beyond physical benefits, the philosophy makes life easier, providing opportunity to find oneself and ultimately reach the Self of God, Paramātmā.
"Among these, the foremost is to maintain a vegetarian lifestyle."
"He can deal with everything if he is involved in the master yoga system."

Be vegetarian or vegan
11:00 - 12:10 (70 min)
The Earth sustains all life, and yoga is the path to harmony with it. Yoga in Daily Life is a global spiritual practice for health and peace, distinct from mere physical exercise. The world contains 85 million species across water, earth, and sky. Humans are but one form of life. The current age, Kali Yuga, is a time of suffering where humans disrupt nature, poisoning water, air, and food with chemicals, causing disease. This suffering is a consequence of harming other creatures. True yoga practitioners, maintaining pure practices, can remain resilient. The solution is a compassionate, vegan lifestyle and spiritual discipline. A key practice involves focusing on the navel, the seat of life, with specific breathing and sound vibrations to promote health and balance.
"Yoga is for the yogīs, and yogīs are there for their energies and blessings for the whole world."

Darshan and dhan
13:45 - 14:42 (57 min)
True wealth is found in spiritual vision, not material illusion.
The darśana of the Guru is the highest blessing, surpassing all ritual and pilgrimage. Mere repetition of scriptures or practice of yoga is insufficient without this grace. People chase gold and money, mistaking transient possessions for real wealth. Even family bonds, like husband and wife, are often expressions of attachment, not the enduring harmony seen in nature. The real wealth is Darśana Dhan—the vision of God—which leads one forever upward. Worldly roles and gifts, like a mother's ring, are temporary tokens; the true legacy is spiritual awareness. Modern relationships fracture quickly because they lack Sat, the eternal truth. Satsaṅga is communion with that truth, which once attained, does not leave. This world is māyā, a great deceiver composed of the three guṇas, which entangle us through sweet words and desires, primarily attraction between genders and to riches.
"Having darśana of the Sadhguru is higher than all pilgrimage."
"Māyā is a great cheater... that aspect of God which can deceive us."

We should have roots
15:55 - 16:54 (59 min)
Yoga is a progressive path requiring tailored techniques for growth, like a child advancing through life stages. We must evolve beyond mere physical exercise to teach yoga's full science, especially at universities where its depth is often unknown. Many traditions and teachers exist, each with their own disciples, just as every mother has her own child—all are valid and should be respected. True roots come from genuine lineage and practice, not from those who claim exclusivity. Modern life severs these roots, leading to disconnection, much like a leaf blown from its tree. Our goal is to merge with the divine, like a drop returning to the ocean, through sincere practice and loyalty to authentic teachings.
"University, but I don't know what yoga is. So, we have to teach them at the university. Because only physical exercises are not enough."
"Similarly, everyone has their mother, their father, their children, friends, etc. And that is what we call the best path."

Christmas Time
17:00 - 18:07 (67 min)
December is a month of divine happiness for gathering and rejoicing. This time originates from ancient harvest festivals where communities stored food and celebrated together. Such celebrations exist across cultures, like Holi in India or local festivals in Austria. This period creates a collective spiritual atmosphere. It is a time to forgive, to cleanse negative energies, and to express love and respect within families. The essence is to create joy and spiritual connection, regardless of specific religious narratives. The holy figures like Jesus or Krishna are remembered not only for their joy but for the profound suffering they and their mothers endured. Their stories remind us to pray for them and to cultivate love in our own hearts.
"Rejoice, rejoice... this month is the month of happiness."
"His holy Gurujī said, 'Kṛṣṇa knows the Gītā.'"
The foundation of well-being in Ayurveda is a series of happinesses. The first happiness is a healthy body, nirogī kāyā. The second is wealth and harmony in the home. The third is a good, supportive partner. The fourth is obedient children. The fifth is good neighbors. True health begins in the kitchen; diet is the primary treatment. The greatest obstacles are the tongue's two functions: harmful speech and craving for taste. Discipline in eating is essential. Practice prāṇāyāma to cleanse the body and support health. Reduce food intake gradually, bite by bite, over months to see transformation. Do not blame others for poor health; take responsibility for your habits.
"Pehla Sukh Nirogi Kaya, dujā Sukh, ghar meṁ māyā."
"The tongue is a gun. When you pull the gun’s trigger, the bullet... is gone. It will not come back."
