Sri SatGuru Chalisa
1:00 - 1:13 (13 min)
Recorded on
The Ātāśrī Satguru Chalīsā is a devotional text whose recitation brings liberation and grace. We worship the Gurudev, the creator present inside and outside all, the Supreme Divine. Without this mercy, no one crosses the ocean of worldly existence. All sages meditate upon this presence. With the knowledge of the self placed in the heart, one becomes free from fear and problems. Those who read the Satguru Chalīsā will meditate with concentration. It liberates from the fear of birth and death; suffering ends. The lord of death will not approach. Listeners attain prosperities, spiritual perfections, and happiness. All wishes are fulfilled, and life becomes perfect. The verses praise the merciful Gurudev, protector of devotees, who incarnates for supreme benefit. The drowning are lifted up. Those who receive divine sight become fortunate, their concentration fixed on God. The boat of the Guru's name carries beings comfortably to the farther shore. The Guru is the indestructible Supreme Divine. One must keep the mind pure, without negative thought, which spoils everything. There is no giver of grace other than the Guru. Even kings bow to Gurudeva. Any creature coming before the Guru has sins of millions of ages destroyed. On whom the Guru's blessing falls needs nothing more. "Without Your mercy, no one can cross the ocean of worldly existence." "Any creature who boards the boat of Sadgurudeva, they all will reach the farther shore."

The Light of Life and the Path to Liberation
1:15 - 2:08 (53 min)
Recorded on
The light of life is the light of God, and our purpose is to awaken and attain liberation. Human life is a rare and precious opportunity given by God. Our prime duty is to protect all creatures and live with mutual love and understanding. We are travelers in this world; we brought nothing and will take nothing material when we go. Do not waste this life on mere animalistic activities like eating and sleeping, or on gossip and doubt. Spirituality is purity of consciousness, thought, and behavior—tolerance, forgiveness, and love. Search for your own mistakes, not the faults of others. Develop divine qualities within yourself. You must awaken yourself; no one else can do it for you. While you can receive help, you must ultimately stand on your own feet. Dependency on others leads to suffering, but love is unconditional and liberating. God is within you; the highest realization is oneness, where the knower, knowledge, and object become one. Surrender to God, for only with Him can you find true happiness. "Know thyself. If you know yourself, you will know everything. If you do not know yourself, you know nothing." "Lord, I have surrendered my life to you, because only with you can I be happy, even if I have to walk through stones and a thorny path." Filming location: Umag, Croatia DVD 160a
Be healthy, be happy, be good
2:15 - 3:19 (64 min)
Recorded on
Evening Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Szeged, Hungary. Either you use your time or you will lose it. We should clean the antahkaranas. Attachment is the cause of our problems. There are two things: hope and the desires. There are four ways we create karma. Don't leave your parents in the dying room where there is no hope. The first wealth is good health. Clean your body inside with proper food, practising asanas and pranayama. Do not go to restaurants too often. Vishwaguruji invites everyone to Sri Alakhpuriji's cave in the Himalayas.
The Imperative of Daily Practice
3:25 - 4:04 (39 min)
Recorded on
The imperative is daily yoga practice for health, which must precede spirituality. Most do not practice regularly, leading to physical and mental illness. The body naturally produces vikāras (illnesses) and is dominated by tamas guṇa (inertia). Through daily practice, one cultivates a sāttvic body free of vikāra, which then purifies the mind and intellect. The essential program includes daily āsana, prāṇāyāma, Neti, Agniśāra, and weekly Kunḍalinī Kriyā with seasonal Śaṅkha Prakṣālana. Diet must be sāttvic, avoiding meat and eggs, with disciplined eating times. Teachers must exemplify this. The foundation is purifying āhār (diet), vihār (recreation), ācār (behavior), and vicār (thought). "Practicing means at home—here you only learn. Practicing for just one week is ineffective; it must be a continuous, daily process." "When the body is unhealthy and full of vikāras, the thoughts become full of vikāras."

Hatha Yoga is in every kind of Yoga
4:10 - 4:33 (23 min)
Recorded on
Haṭha Yoga is the essential, foundational path encompassing all others. You cannot proceed without Haṭha Yoga. Bhakti Yoga is also Haṭha Yoga inside, for you must maintain unwavering devotion despite emotional waves. Most devotion is selfish and unstable, rising and falling with desires. True devotion must grow constantly, like an airplane ascending smoothly from the runway. It is a test of purity and constancy. The story of the crow and swan illustrates this: the noisy, changeable crow represents fickle devotion, while the silent, soaring swan represents steady ascent. Real devotion requires a pure heart and readiness to surrender completely. The tale of the young girl Karmabai demonstrates this forceful love: she insisted the deity eat her offering, and through her unwavering conviction, it did. Karma Yoga is similarly challenging. Thus, all paths are included within Haṭha Yoga. "Bhakti yoga cannot be successful without haṭha yoga. And then it must be what we call the real devotion." "God needs that kind of love... it is the love that is the oneness." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
Blessings from the Kumbha Mela
4:40 - 5:50 (70 min)
Recorded on
A satsang featuring personal reflections on the Kumbh Melā pilgrimage and the creation of a divine painting. "I had no expectations or vision of what Kumbh Melā really is... Overall, it was very, very beautiful, very high vibration, very colorful." "With Viśva Gurujī's blessing, it was suddenly like from the air. Suddenly, I saw a face in this image, a completely complete face with all the features I needed to paint this painting." Swami Maheshvaranand (Vishwaguruji) hosts a gathering at the Aum Ashram in Jadān. He invites several disciples to share their experiences. Lakṣmī from America describes her profound first visit to the Kumbh Melā, detailing the colorful procession and bathing in the Gaṅgā. The artist Kamalā then recounts the spiritual journey of painting the face of Ālakpurījī based on Swamiji's vision and guidance.

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Zagreb, Croatia. Yoga is for the whole life. Guru is the navigator that leads us to our destination. Reading many books and practicing different technics keeps us on the path, but for reaching the aim we should follow the Alakhpuriji's Lineage, even in the next life. As birds find their nests at sunset, our roots are residing in this lineage. The Soul goes out of the body quickly, like the bird flies from the cave, or like the falling star is moving. Explanation of the prayer "Sri Guru Atma".

The fire element
11:05 - 11:56 (51 min)
Recorded on
The fire element is crucial for spiritual and physical health. Fire represents both divine light and destructive forces within us. The light of wisdom brings peace, harmony, and positive thoughts, creating a beautiful spiritual atmosphere. Without this light, darkness and ignorance lead to depression and blaming others. Anger is a negative fire that burns consciousness, and modern burnout stems from this inner pressure. Various sacred fires exist: the crematorium's fire, the altar's divine light, and ceremonial fires for foundations, housewarmings, and marriages. These Agni rituals establish harmony; neglecting them invites discord. Digestive fire, jāṭharāgni, governs physical health and temperature. All illness begins in the elemental space. Maintaining the five elements through yogic principles is essential for good health, recognizing God in all things. "Do not do any mistakes. For example, you drink poison and think, 'Afterwards, I will do good things.' But after this poison, it has killed you already." "When you give a donation, it is not yours anymore. And if you give, and then you are giving some commentary, then you are giving good things, it is not anymore valid for your good." Filming location: UK

Purify Yourselves
13:42 - 14:48 (66 min)
Recorded on
Creation originates from divine resonance, and purity is our essential calling. All existence is constant change. The universe is a living movement. Within it, all 8.4 million life forms share one heart and soul: Śiva. He is Swayambhu, self-manifest. Creation emerged through the five elements and the principle of Nāda, the primordial resonance that permeates everything. This sound is the source; without it, nothing exists. We are born into an annamaya kośa, a body of nourishment from seeds, which are themselves of Śiva. The sun's core is not mere heat but Śiva's pure energy; its perceived heat is a reflection upon reaching us. This energy purifies. True immortality is beyond form, as in "nā tatra sūryo bhāti." A master's vibration transmits this energy to us, regardless of appearance. Our inner heat is vital for creation. When one falls into distress, like a pit, they must call out. Calling the divine name—like "Jai Rām"—is that call for help. Without it, no one comes. You must be awake, jāgratā. Humans must choose rightly. Other creatures eat according to their nature, but humans should know better. Eating meat aligns one with the tiger's nature, not the human potential for purity. The current global affliction is a consequence of impurity, particularly from consuming eggs and meat. Those practicing pure vegetarianism and yoga remain protected. Purify your body and nourishment. Do not fear; fear itself is debilitating. Have faith in the Guru and divine protection. Practice at home. Do not seek new teachers or create new books; the established path and scriptures are complete. Follow government guidance. Give generously to those in need; giving multiplies like a seed. Stay on the spiritual path, connected to the one Guru and the resonance of Śiva. "Through the nāda only, creation whole. Otherwise, nothing." "If you have faith in Gurudev, then it is okay. And if you have no faith, then the grass will fall on you." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Yoga, Faith, and Integration: A Personal Journey and Panel Discussion
14:58 - 16:02 (64 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is a faith-based, personal journey of healing and a system for holistic wellness that must be integrated into healthcare. My view is traditional: yoga is about belief, not just evidence. Diagnosed with a terminal cancer, I refused standard treatment. I believed the illness originated in my mind. I rewrote my conscious thoughts, believing they would communicate through my nervous system to my cells and DNA to halt the disease. The cancer stopped. This is not a miracle but yoga practiced with faith and discipline. Yoga’s essence is tuning consciousness to God; physical postures are secondary. With this faith and practice, one can overcome. A panel discusses integrating yoga and AYUSH systems like Ayurveda, Homeopathy, and Siddha with modern medicine for holistic care. Homeopathy treats the whole person—mind, body, and intellect—and is cost-effective and people-friendly, ideal for a large population. It works on a subtle level, stimulating the body's healing. Ayurveda shares yoga's principles, focusing on removing blockages in prāṇa through detoxification and lifestyle to build immunity and prevent disease. Siddha medicine inherently includes yoga and offers unique therapies. All systems emphasize the mind's role in health. The World Health Organization supports developing evidence-based yoga modules for non-communicable diseases and creating integrative service models. The true purpose of yoga is raising human consciousness; health benefits are side effects. Practical integration requires training medical practitioners in short, common yoga protocols to advise patients. "Yoga is not about the āsana. Why not? It is about God." "Homeopathy treats man as a single entity, not in spare parts." Filming location: Delhi, India

Vegetarian cooking lesson 5
17:00 - 17:41 (41 min)
Recorded on
Falahārī nutrition is a simple, natural way of eating that brings health and vitality. This diet uses perfect, uncooked foods as they grow. I have followed it for years, feeling energetic and healthy. We prepare a menu suitable after fasting: a vegetable soup with mung bean, a spiced cabbage and carrot vegetable, an olive herb pesto, and a salad. Salad is now a main food for me. The apple cake is not baked but made from nuts and dried fruits. It is important to feel free in your food choices without strict rules. I became a vegetarian through yoga, which greatly improved my life. Each dish alone could be a meal, but today we make a special combination. We finish with a vanilla sauce for the cake. This food is very healthy and satisfying. "Everything grown in nature is already perfect." "Becoming a vegetarian is one of the greatest gifts for me." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Do not eat meat
19:35 - 20:37 (62 min)
Recorded on
Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. Singing bhajans. Yoga is the science of humans. God gave us everything. Many people in many countries gave up eating meat and follow a vegan diet. We should not kill animals and take away honey from bees, milch from cows. Eating meat leads to suffering, instead of doing that help and protect the animals. Yoga is for all, and not only for the body.
Tratak and Tilak
20:45 - 21:47 (62 min)
Recorded on
Trāṭak is a concentration technique, and Tilak is a spiritual symbol of balance and wisdom. Trāṭak means gazing steadily on one object, like a candle flame, the tip of a leaf, or the new moon. This practice develops concentration and inner purity, which is necessary for the sādhanā to be complete. It is a powerful part of Haṭha Yoga. Gazing at the rising sun for a few seconds is acceptable, but gazing too long is harmful, and the setting sun is said to draw energy away. The practice can lead to spiritual awakening and is linked to opening the Ājñā Chakra, which represents the light of inner wisdom, not a physical opening. Applying a Tilak on the forehead symbolizes this wisdom. It is made from substances like sandalwood paste or ash and creates a balance between the Iḍā and Piṅgalā energies. This balance is considered very important. The practice is not merely religious; it originates from Sanātana Dharma, which encompasses all of nature. The sun and moon are revered as vital sources of life. Trāṭak must be practiced with discipline and under guidance, as improper practice can be dangerous. It is a tool for focusing the mind, not for developing siddhis for misuse, though a true Haṭha Yogī may use such power when absolutely necessary. Ultimately, the goal is inner purity and balance. "Until you have clarity and purity, your or our trāṭak sādhanā is not complete." "If you put the Tilak here, it is a symbol of wisdom, the light." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
The Eternal Journey of the Soul
21:55 - 22:56 (61 min)
Recorded on
The eternal journey of the soul begins with the question: who am I? I am not the five elements nor the five sheaths that constitute the body. The soul is the eternal light, and these forms manifest because of it. The mind coordinates between the five senses of knowledge and the five senses of action, acting as a reflection of our deeds. Our accumulated good karma is like money saved, yet a single mistake can jeopardize it, requiring another birth. The soul enters the body through the navel's solar plexus, connected to the sun's sound of Aum. Its ultimate residence is a tiny light within the heart. Self-realization is knowing you are the pure soul, not these temporary layers. The practice of chanting connects you to this solar energy and guides the soul's journey. "Ko’ham—who am I? I am not these five elements: space, fire, air, water, and earth." "The soul, our light, our life, is coming and bringing us closer and closer." Filming location: London, UK
Yoga in Daily Life: The Fifth Level
23:00 - 23:38 (38 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is a science of body, mind, and spirit, where every practice has a clear purpose. We begin by relaxing in Ānandāsana to release daily stress, focusing on abdominal breathing to calm the heart and massage internal organs. Practice should always stay within the limits of comfort to prevent injury, never forcing. The postures activate complete yoga breathing and circulation. Āsanas work on the physical body, correct behavior, and influence consciousness. Feeling the effects in relaxation is crucial, as the postures continue to act afterward. The practice balances the body by working both sides equally and integrates breath with movement to harmonize and remove stress. "Yoga is the science of the body, mind, spirit, and soul. In science, you must always have an answer for why you are doing something." "Āsanas do not act only on the body. They are also a correction of our behavior; they act on our consciousness; they affect our entire being." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia
Return back to happiness
23:45 - 0:37 (52 min)
Recorded on
Sādhana, or spiritual practice, rests on two pillars: the changeable physical practice and the permanent spiritual practice. Our physical practice must adapt to our changing age and condition. While yoga āsanas like śīrṣāsana benefit everyone by improving circulation and health, the ultimate goal is not mere longevity but a contented life. Modern life generates stress and endless desire, which destroys contentment. Accumulating possessions only multiplies sorrows. True happiness, or sukha, is found not in external things but in inner śāntoṣa, or contentment. This contentment is cultivated through steady spiritual practice, primarily mantra. Your mantra is the unwavering pillar that purifies consciousness and leads to perfection, regardless of your beliefs. Do not abandon this practice, for it protects you and brings peace. The physical practice supports the body, but the spiritual practice of mantra and devotion is the essential, unchanging path. "Śāntoṣī nārśada sukhi, who is always content, is always happy." "As many things we have, that many sorrows we have." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
