Give everything, so not to hold
0:35 - 1:25 (50 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on the path of discipleship, austerity, and selfless service. "Gurujī said, 'I have my spiritualities, my jñāna, my knowledge, everything. What do I want from others?'" "To go on the path is not easy. One path is with torrents. Another path is very hot, with sand. And there is a knife on the side of the knife. On that, you have to go." The speaker shares memories of austere early days with his Guru in a simple Jaipur ashram, illustrating the saint's path of inner richness over material possession. He uses parables, like that of a greedy rich man, and metaphors, like the firing of a clay pot, to teach the value of seva (selfless service), detachment, and rigorous spiritual training. The talk contrasts this with modern distractions and concludes with a focus on foundational spiritual practices. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

That is where we are going; we go to sleep." "First, I am human. When we think really, really, then the whole day we will not do anything wrong to other humans." Swami Ji addresses the morning gathering, using the fragility of translation equipment and a personal childhood story about a horse to illustrate the need for careful handling of all 'instruments'—including the human body. He outlines an ideal morning routine of gratitude, starting with recognizing one's humanity and honoring parents and the Earth. The talk introduces a long-term study of chakras and kuṇḍalinī, while cautioning against fear and emphasizing that everyone is already divine and should proceed naturally under a true guru's guidance.
