Part 1: Yoga, Stress, and Cardiovascular Disease: A Cardiologist's Perspective
1:22 - 3:09 (107 min)
Recorded on
A cardiology conference lecture on yoga, stress, and cardiovascular disease. "Chronic stress should be treated on par with the other cardiovascular risk factors like hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and smoking—but we ignore it." "This is the first study that actually demonstrated that metabolic activity within the amygdala is associated with risk of developing cardiovascular disease." Professor Dr. Gautam Sharma, a cardiologist from AIIMS Delhi, presents data on the global burden of heart disease, arguing for stress to be recognized as a major risk factor. He cites neuroimaging research linking amygdala activity to cardiovascular events and reviews studies on yoga's benefits, while highlighting the need for more robust clinical trials to validate yoga as a therapeutic intervention.

The value of Satsang
3:18 - 4:03 (45 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse exploring the mantra "Hari Om" and sharing Puranic stories. "Hari is the name of Bhagavān Viṣṇu. And Om, Om is Hari." "72,000 years of sādhanā and one minute of satsaṅg... For one minute of satsaṅg, the whole earth raised up, and when it was 72,000 sādhanās, that was not moving." The lecturer explains the divine essence of the "Hari Om" mantra, linking it to Vishnu and the primal sound of creation. He narrates the Puranic story of the earth's origin and the serpent Sheshanaga who supports it. The central teaching is conveyed through a parable where the sage Vishvamitra learns that one minute of true satsang (spiritual gathering) outweighs 72,000 years of solitary penance, highlighting the supreme power of devotion and community. The talk concludes with ethical exhortations for spiritual practice. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A spiritual discourse on the significance of Monday and the discipline of fasting. "We worship Śiva on Monday. We call it Somavāra. When Monday coincides with the new moon after Pūrṇimā, it is considered a very auspicious constellation for the coming new year, heralding better times." "Your economy will be better, yes? You will not buy fruits, bread, drinks, or anything. So three times a week, our economy will be good. See how much money you save nicely in one year." A teacher addresses a gathering, explaining the astrological and spiritual importance of Monday (Somavāra) as a day dedicated to Lord Śiva and an auspicious time for fasting. He critiques the modern loss of religious discipline, comparing Hindu and Christian practices with the strict fasting observed in Islam. The talk blends spiritual reasoning with practical health and economic benefits, urging attendees, especially Kriyā Yoga practitioners, to adopt the discipline of fasting on Mondays.

Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on the influence of the moon and the supreme protection of the Guru. "The moon has one of the strongest influences on our planet. Not only for the humans, but the trees, the animals, even the ocean." "The highest is the guru tattva... the greatest power, the protection, is that what we call the bulletproof jacket. And that bulletproof jacket is Guru Kṛpā, protection." The speaker delivers an evening satsang, beginning with the astrological and physical influence of the moon, particularly around Guru Pūrṇimā. Using analogies from air travel and oceanography, he transitions to the core theme: that the grace and protection of a true Guru surpass all planetary influences and astrological fears. He shares stories and teachings emphasizing that genuine spiritual progress requires personal effort and devotion, not reliance on external rituals or superstitions, and concludes with a prayer.

A teacher addresses a gathering, offering guidance on the correct, pressure-free method for the humming bee breath (Brahmari), warning against overly long sessions. He shares personal reflections on inconsistent practice due to travel, then expands into broader themes of impermanence, using metaphors of birth, death, and a drop returning to the ocean to illustrate the soul's journey and the pursuit of purity.

Yoga, Health, and Peace: A Medical Perspective

A medical doctor presents a scientific perspective on yoga's role in holistic health and peace. "To create a healthy world, we must be healthy ourselves."

The speaker, addressing an audience including Vishwa Guruji, explains how modern lifestyles cause stress and disease, contrasting this with the integrated approach of the Yoga in Daily Life system. He details how specific yoga practices—like meditation, prāṇāyāma, and āsanas—scientifically support health by influencing the brain's cortical and subcortical levels and peripheral organs.

Body liberation and moksha
21:50 - 22:52 (62 min)
Recorded on
A satsang discourse on transcending body-mind duality through the five sheaths. "Body and mind have no sense in it. And if you are saying body and mind, then both are wrong." "We have to go: annamaya kośa, prāṇamaya kośa, manomaya kośa, vijñānamaya kośa, and ānandamaya kośa. Then we are only outside; it is in the body, but it is sending somewhere in different ways." He argues that true yogic science requires progressing through the five koshas (sheaths) toward Anandamaya kosha and liberation, moving beyond the confusing duality of body and mind.

23:45 - 0:41 (56 min)
Recorded on
Evening Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Martin, Slovakia. We should ask ourselves: Who am I? From where did I come? Where I am going? In order to have liberation, we need the blessing of the Guru. Only to have a title is nothing. Growing of the ego is a danger for the spiritual aspirant. Know thyself as the Atma. Every life is like a dream, it is your reality. There are three levels of consciousness.
