Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Brisbane, Australia. We need power for everything. Incarnations have a weapon and also a blessing in their hands. Both Siva and Shakti is power. Now in the Kali-yuga devils are awakened. Siva is the God of the devas and devils also. The negative and positive sides also are within us. A story about a tongue and a tooth. Pranayam always must begin in the left nostril. The ocean is the power of the Earth. All five elements have their power. We need power positive but hard. During meditation, we should see our inner world. Practice and heory are completely different. When we chant OM our tongue should be relaxed.

An evening satsang on cultivating spiritual confidence and divine connection. "Anyone can take from my hands, but not from my jīvā, my ātmā." "Eko brahma dvitīya nāsti: one Brahman, there is no second. All is one, and when there is duality, there is fighting." Swami Umāpurījī addresses a global audience, teaching that confidence stems from surrendering daily life and sleep to God. Using metaphors of marriage, a mala's thread, and rain merging into the ocean, he explains that true oneness—beyond emotional attachment—prevents fear and suffering. He shares a story of disciples fighting over a guru's legs to illustrate non-duality, and concludes with a guided Brahmārī Prāṇāyāma technique. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Public lecture with Vishwaguruji from Poprad, Slovakia. Why don’t we have time? Why are we suffering from stress? And even more if we have more money? If we would practice yoga three hours a day we would have happy life. Meditation can help us. Vishwaguruji gives a short and practical insight into the system of Yoga in Daily Life.

Satsang with Vishwaguruji, Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. There are different kinds of disturbances (vrittis) in the consciousness, for example worries from the outer world. If we blame others, we will never reach our aim. Nature is destroyed and food poisoned with chemicals. Meditation brings positive thoughts into our consciousness. Go further and you will reach knowledge of the Self. Compassion will come into your heart and will remain there. In that way, life will be happy and healthy.

A satsang on the integral relationship between Yoga and Āyurveda as essential nourishment. "A human requires two types of food or nourishment. One is the physical food we eat... But we also have a mind. The mind likewise needs a kind of nourishment, which is bhajan, mantra, and the study of spiritual scriptures." "Yoga and Āyurveda are brothers... Āyurveda tells humans what they should eat, when they should eat, and what they should not eat." Following opening prayers and salutations, a speaker addresses the assembly, introducing the concept of dual nourishment for body and mind. The talk focuses primarily on Āyurvedic principles for physical health, detailing rules for water consumption to support digestion and balance the bodily doshas (vāta, pitta, kapha). Key advice includes maintaining a 45-minute gap between drinking water and eating, avoiding ice-cold water, and drinking room-temperature water sip by sip. The session concludes with a chant and a prayer. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A guided meditation and teaching session on perception, memory, and the analogy of the human body as a living tree. "Observe the trees; take all this into your memory now, more consciously. Now close your eyes and see the picture inside. This is the test: how much concentration do you have?" "This tree is like our self. It’s alive in the tree... Similarly, in our body, it’s not only one soul. We have one, our big soul, but we have millions of other creatures in our body." A teacher guides students through a visualization exercise in a park, using observation of a tree to discuss concentration and memory. He expands the analogy, comparing the tree's structure to the human body and spine, and discusses the multitude of life within a single body.

A satsang discourse on the full moon's influence, human consciousness, and spiritual practice. "In the holy book Bhagavad Gītā, God Kṛṣṇa says, 'Arjuna, I enter into the vegetation as a nectar through the moonlight.'" "In yoga, we used to say a yoga practitioner and the yogī should be—or every human should be—like a honeybee. It brings nectar even from the poisonous cactus or some plants." Swami Paramadvaiti leads an evening talk, beginning with the spiritual and ecological significance of the full moon and the honeybee. He expands into a wide-ranging discussion covering the lunar effect on emotions, the importance of fasting, the journey of the soul through the chakras and at death, and the foundational principles of yoga for health and consciousness. He weaves in teachings on managing desires, subconscious impressions from early life, and the ultimate goal of meditation and mantra. Filming location: New York, USA

An opening discourse for a spiritual retreat seminar on destiny, karma, and the human journey. "Destiny is the production of the actions, the karma." "God gave us freedom to do the karma. But he didn't give us the freedom to harvest the fruits of the karma." Swami begins the retreat with a prayer and addresses the assembly. He explains the law of karma as the source of destiny, using analogies like a SIM card's credit to describe the exhaustion of good karma leading to rebirth. He discusses the journey of the soul, the nature of heavenly realms, and the unique responsibility of human life, emphasizing purification through spiritual practice and the guidance of a Master. Stories, including one about a farmer and a devotee at heaven's gate, illustrate these principles. The talk concludes with practical advice for the retreat, focusing on connecting with nature and simple living. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. In reality, yoga is one but it has many branches and names. Yogis usually gave the names of animals to the positures because they don't want to come back to the world in the body of that animal. There are also many kinds of kriyas, Some of them are hatha yoga kriyas. There is a big misunderstanding in the western world about hatha yoga. Vajra nadi controls our all nerve systems. Practise every day and go step by step. Pranayama has also many technics. Breathing is happening also towards our skin. The story about a France king and girls covered with gold. Explanation and demonstration of one kind of Bhramari pranayama.

A detailed yoga class instruction covering śalabhāsana, sarvāṅgāsana, and prāṇāyāma. "Śalabhāsana, being a backward bend that requires strong muscles, works very well on our self-confidence. It strengthens the sense of power and vitality." "In this posture, simply allow one subtle, extended exhalation. This posture works on unburdening the heart, so less pumping is needed to nourish the brain." An instructor guides students through a sequence of āsanas, including śalabhāsana (locust pose) variations, sarvāṅgāsana (shoulderstand), and halāsana (plow pose), explaining their physical and energetic benefits. The session incorporates preparatory poses, counterposes, and detailed alignment cues, concluding with instructions for Bhastrikā prāṇāyāma and a collective Oṁ chant.

A spiritual discourse on the discipline of mind and the concept of vṛtti (mental fluctuations). "God has given us a beautiful body and a beautiful inner world, and from that beautiful inner world, more is reflected to the outer world." "Patañjali said the first word is... discipline. Yoga begins with the discipline." A teacher explains the nature of vṛtti—the thoughts and attention that stir the consciousness—using examples from Patañjali's Yoga Sūtra and everyday life. He discusses the interplay between the intellect and the heart, the influence of selfishness and desire, and the need for personal discipline (anuśāsanam) to ultimately achieve control of the mind (citta vṛtti nirodhaḥ).

But wise people... describe God in different ways according to their opinion and knowledge." A speaker addresses an assembly at the Om Ashram, offering salutations to the guru lineage. He expounds on the Vedas as divine knowledge given for all humanity, explaining their four divisions—Ṛgveda, Yajurveda, Sāmaveda, and Atharvaveda—and their core teachings on oneness, truth, devotion, and humanity's purpose to protect and enhance the world. He emphasizes that the paramparā's bhajans distill this Vedic essence for practical devotion. Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
