0:15 - 1:32 (77 min)
Recorded on
A public lecture on integrating yoga philosophy and practice into daily life, focusing on self-knowledge and chakra awakening. "Yoga is a balancing principle which balances the entire universe. Where there is balance, there is harmony." "Unless we change our qualities, we cannot become one with God. Human qualities are love, understanding, kindness, mercifulness, helping, spiritual, and so on." Swami Paramadvaiti addresses an audience, explaining yoga as a science for achieving harmony and union with the cosmic consciousness. He discusses the nature of human problems, the journey of the individual soul, and the importance of cultivating positive qualities. The lecture then delves into practical yoga techniques for health and stress relief, before providing a detailed teaching on the energy body, focusing on the awakening and purification of the Svādhiṣṭhāna chakra and its associated emotions.

How to keep our purity
2:50 - 3:14 (24 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse exploring themes of purity, perception, and human nature. "In our whole body, everything, many, many things, and so those who are eating, not good eating meat and this and that, more or less they are, but those who are very pure in water and this and that. The people, they are very good." "And when we open our eyes, then we see only, 'I am human.' I am human." A speaker, likely a spiritual teacher, delivers a free-flowing talk that moves from observations about India's diversity and dietary habits to reflections on inner purity. The discourse touches on the purity of the earth and water, the nature of sleep and consciousness, and the importance of sensory control, using analogies like the eyes being "two sisters." The talk concludes with remarks about an ashram and a hope for future conduct. Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

A spiritual teacher leads a session beginning with practical exercises to awaken energy in the hands, describing it as a form of self-healing. He then transitions into a wide-ranging discourse on the nature of the soul, the five sheaths (kośas) of being, human karma, and family life.

The speaker addresses a group, holding up the system's foundational book. He emphasizes that true yoga requires daily practice according to these teachings, not just theoretical knowledge.

Prayer before eating

Recorded on
A cooking demonstration and spiritual discourse on the sanctity of food. "It is said that animals eat animals, and for humans, there is vegetation: the fruits which are falling from the trees, the herbs, the vegetables." "And therefore, we are not worshiping or saying mantras to eat the meat... when we offer and we take with prayer to God, 'You gave us this food,' so until we did not pray or say thanks, that was not your food." Swamiji begins by demonstrating how to prepare Panchkuta, a dried vegetable mix from Rajasthan, detailing its ingredients and cooking process. This leads into a broader discussion on food as a sacred source of life, contrasting human and animal nourishment. He emphasizes the importance of prayer before eating, referencing the goddess Annapūrṇā, and explores themes of humility, non-violence, and spiritual practice, concluding with a mantra and blessings for a holy Christmas time.

All have always your dress and everything. You see men only black." A spiritual teacher addresses a gathering, emphasizing the importance of a pure, vegetarian lifestyle and expressing concern over dietary lapses. He uses the metaphor of stepping on a needle in a beautiful place to describe impurity entering a pure environment and discusses the prevalence of black clothing in the current age. Several disciples then contribute, offering scientific, psychological, ethical, and practical perspectives on vegetarianism, linking diet to consciousness, brain function, and spiritual progress.

Their name. And this name remains forever." Swami Maheshvaranandji addresses a gathering, reflecting on the long-awaited return to a sacred location and honoring the legacy of devotees like Krishnananda.

Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on the value of satsang and the sacredness of grace.

A speaker addresses the gathering at an ashram, emphasizing the immense fortune of being in satsang rather than engaged in worldly affairs. He contrasts the "rich food" of spiritual practice with "mental fast food," stating that the true blessing and transformative power lies in the direct grace (prasāda) received from the Guru through humble greeting and presence, which can release karma and change one's life.
