Sri Devpuriji Mahasamadhi Anniversary
5:00 - 6:09 (69 min)
Recorded on
Sri Devpuriji Mahasamadhi Anniversary - evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Alakhpuriji was in Shiva's time but he is also living now everywhere, in his astral form. At that time human life was completely different. That time yogis did tapasya - austerities. The development of humans was very quick in many aspects. At that time, there was also good and bad, like now. We don't know why covid only attacks humans. At that time were the seven rishis - the seven stars (of the Great Bear/Big Dipper constellation). They are seeing us and protecting us. Alakhpuriji and Devpuriji come from the area of Lake Mansarovar. It was very strange when Devpuriji appeared. The story of Devpuriji cut the silver money into many pieces. We are very lucky that our parampara is originated from the Satya Yuga Siva time.

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.

A morning satsang on the guru's grace, devotion, and the power of teaching through stories. "Na’haṁ kartā means we are not the doer. We cannot do it. If we think we do, it may be confusing. So we give it with both our hands; we surrender it at the holy feet of Mahāprabhujī." "So, when someone asks you, and you give… The answer first to them. First, give your answers... The answer is yours because you are now a great man." The speaker, Swami Avatarpuri, opens with the principle of surrender to the guru's grace. He uses analogies, like a sculptor transforming stone into a worshipped deity, to illustrate how devotion elevates the ordinary. He shares a parable about a poor man whose selfless act of seeking answers for others ultimately solves his own plight, emphasizing the power of selfless service and positive speech. The talk concludes with personal anecdotes about the value of stories as a tool for learning and connection. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Strilky Ashram is not for one it is for all. Many people died by corona. It has many hidden signs. We are the real yoga from the earth till the cosmic. When we leave our body we don't know about how is in the world. God gave us the possibility not to be born again. Sometimes people are afraid of ghosts in the darkness. There is no ghost in reality. We can come back to the earth only through the mother's womb. Nowadays people have many problems with the health of their bodies. Maybe the cause of this is some karma from our past lives. Every creature feels pain and sadness when they die. Sometimes our soul is suffering in this body but we don't want to die. the whole ocean consists of drops. Yogic science knows how it will be afraid we leave this body. So we want to live and enjoy our life.

Vishuddi Chakra and thyroid gland
21:40 - 21:58 (18 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on the viśuddhi chakra and the symbolism of swallowed poison. "Wish means poison. Wish means poison." "Śiva did not swallow it down; he held this poison in his throat here, and he digested it there... Similarly, we say this: in our throat, there is a poison." The teacher narrates the myth of Śiva drinking the ocean's poison to become Nīlakaṇṭha, using it as a metaphor for the emotional poison swallowed in daily life, such as unexpressed anger or harsh words. This is linked to the viśuddhi (throat) chakra, its purification, and its symbols—the elephant of strength and Brahmā with the Vedas. The talk connects this to broader concepts of the chakra system, kuṇḍalinī, and the necessity of consistent practice over contradictory advice. Filming location: Vancouver, Canada
