Yoga and Āyurveda are integrated sciences for the body, mind, and soul. Āyurveda primarily cares for the physical body through correct nutrition, asserting that health reduces mental tension. The body grows until about twenty-two years with good nutrition, requiring less food for strength and longevity. Modern eating exceeds limits, causing imbalance. Food should be medicinal, but the discipline is lost. People now consult many doctors without commitment to one path. Allopathic medicine can halt life processes, so one should practice Āyurveda and yoga in parallel, as Āyurveda acts slowly. Modern junk food with artificial tastes offers nothing to the body, causing digestive suffering. One must return to organic, natural food, eating and drinking only at proper times, not consuming liquids for one and a half hours after meals to improve health. Illnesses like cancer result from junk food and avoiding organic substances. "Āyurveda is nutrition. What one should eat, what we are eating, is Āyurveda." "Medicine, our nutrition, our diet should be like a medicine." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga is now widespread, but a misconception has arisen that it is only āsanas and prāṇāyāma. In focusing solely on these, many have lost sight of their true purpose, practicing something akin to acrobatics instead. This acrobatic display is not yoga. True yoga connects body, mind, and spirit to the cosmic. Many pursue acrobatics, with their activity containing perhaps only 25% yoga. Yoga comes from the yogīs, and the yogī is Śiva. We must recognize the foundation brought by great sages. To engage in real yogic practice, you must have your master, your yogic guru. Some now reject gurus, becoming disconnected from right principles. Our "Yoga in Daily Life" system offers a complete path, encompassing deeper spiritual knowledge and the grace of the Guru. Sādhanā, or practice, is everything in life. When you practice sādhanā in everything, you will attain liberation. We need the Guru's grace to progress. "Yoga is the science connecting the human being—body, mind, and spirit—to the cosmic." "Sādhanā means practice—various kinds of practice. Preparing food, cleaning your room, washing clothes, gardening—all this is sādhanā." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga is the science of harmonizing body, mind, and soul through following an authentic Master to navigate the cave of worldly life. Svayambhū Śiva, self-manifested, initiates creation. The five elements are His body. Endless space is the mother, and consciousness within it is the father. Between them is Śakti, the balancing energy; this triad and its harmonizing principle is yoga. Our soul enters this world, a cave with 8.4 million paths. One must exit the same way one entered, requiring a guide—the Master. Do not declare yourself a master; it requires lifelong humility and learning. Authentic yoga comes from scriptures inspired by Śiva. Short teacher trainings are insufficient and dangerous, like giving a child surgical tools. Proper study requires a minimum of five years. Theory is nothing compared to practice, but physical guidance and blessing are essential. Everything positive and harmonizing is yoga. Follow your Master correctly to find the path out. "From where you enter, from there you go out." "‘Authentic’ means all the scriptures written by those great saints who received inspiration in their meditation from Śiva Himself."

The earth and people of this land are sacred, infused with divine presence. Every child embodies the divine, and life's ideal is seeing every place as the abode of the Supreme. Your true nature is the cosmic Self, resting in the lap of the infinite. You have a universal right to contentment and joy, but the fleeting joys of the world bring subsequent sorrow. True peace is found within, at the source. The mind, however, is disturbed by countless thoughts, or vṛttis, like waves on a peaceful lake. Patañjali's yoga teaches the cessation of these mental fluctuations, which is more challenging now than in ancient times. You must accept three laws: cosmic, natural, and societal. Acceptance of natural change, like aging, is key to peace. Meditation provides strength to face life's inevitable truths and hardships, which are hard to digest. Theoretical knowledge of being the immortal Self is not enough; practical realization, which removes all fear, is the goal. Until then, follow the devotional path, using mantra and guidance. Shift self-inquiry from "Who am I?" to "How am I?" to purify your behavior and qualities. "Your true nature, your true nature is that cosmic Self residing in the Ananta, in the endless, in the cosmic mother’s lap." "Therefore, don’t fly too high. Try to stay. The devotional way, Bhakti Yoga, is beautiful." Filming location: Sydney, Australia

Yoga is life, encompassing all beings. The human form is a rare gift with a special duty. God grants freedom, but actions carry consequences: good deeds lead to the divine, and bad deeds lead to suffering. The five sheaths, or kośas, constitute our being. The physical body, Annamaya Kośa, depends on pure nourishment. The energy body, Prāṇamaya Kośa, is vitalized by this food. The mental body, Manomaya Kośa, must be controlled to avoid suffering, as illustrated by the disciple who became a crow. The intellectual sheath, Vijñānamaya Kośa, should be used wisely, not for destruction. The bliss sheath, Ānandamaya Kośa, leads toward liberation. Practice is essential; Self-realization is a gradual gift. A guide is necessary in all aspects of life. The technique of Kriyā Yoga uses sound vibration from the navel to purify these layers. Daily practice is the path. "One in all and all in one. We are all one life." "Yoga is not only this physical body... health is not everything, but everything is nothing without health."

Confidence is the thread that holds our spiritual life together. Begin and end each day by turning inward, surrendering all actions to the divine. This surrender brings peace and freedom from fear, for one knows the indwelling Self can never be taken away. Confidence is not a fleeting emotion but a state of oneness, like milk and water merging. All activities are like beads on a fragile thread; without the knot of confidence, the thread breaks. All beings are sustained by one God, just as all citizens belong to one country and all raindrops return to the ocean. Disputes arise from duality, forgetting that all is one. The practice of faith, like the prostration in prayer, allows one to see the unseen reality. "Anyone can take from my hands, but not from my jīvā, my ātmā."

The human journey is a progression toward cosmic consciousness, a long path where each step is significant. All creatures strive to reach the human stage, which is a fortunate birth. The unique human gift is the capacity for complex language and a developed brain, a cosmos within which divinity can be found. However, this potential is locked when misused. The mind holds immense power; it can instantly create destruction or cultivate goodness. Desires persist even as the body perishes, binding one to the cycle of rebirth. Humans must use their gifts rightly, avoiding harm to other creatures and purifying their inner thoughts. "God has given all creatures to humans, no matter from which part of the earth." "Man maraṇā, mamatā marī, marmar gayā śarīra, āśā tṛṣṇā nahīṅ gayī." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. We are not connected to the time. There is only oneness in the oneness. The best way is yoga. Do not meditate on outer things. The development will come by practicing. Shiva puja gives calmness. It is very important how to worship Gurupurnima, tomorrow we are going to show it.

Brahmārī Prāṇāyāma is a practice for balance and deep release from tension. We have focused on this practice. Several techniques are given. One uses the index fingers with elbows at shoulder height. Another involves thumbs in the ears with fingers on the temples. The teeth are either pressed together or kept relaxed. The vibration travels from the throat, behind the palate, and out through both nostrils. This resonance balances the flow in both channels. Practice for a short duration, just three repetitions. It releases the day's accumulated tension, leading to lightness in the head and improved sleep. The aim is to achieve an even vibration across both hemispheres of the head. Do not over-practice. The state achieved should be neither loose nor tense, like a properly adjusted mechanism. "The vibration comes to the nostrils. The resonance comes to the throat, immediately goes above, and from there inside, the sound comes back to our nose." "This practice gives a very, very deep release. Sleep well, and you will have good dreams." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The spiritual path requires unwavering discipline and grace, not transient seeking. A governor prioritized a blessing over lunch, knowing his breath was uncertain. This illustrates that spiritual practice must never be missed. Many seek quick liberation, but this yields nothing. True yoga is a complete human science, not merely physical postures. Success comes from steadfast practice and the grace of one guru, akin to having only one mother and father. Spiritual realization ends criticism; we respect all paths, understanding the oneness of all beings like drops returning to the ocean. Discipline is essential, especially within family life. Practice without competition, according to your capacity. The soul is like a flame; we must protect and nurture this inner light, as it alone continues beyond the body. Authentic teachings, like unchanged bhajans, guide us. Work inwardly, for external attachments are fleeting. Practice sincerely within your own faith, fostering peace and inner awareness.

Consciousness and space are one living reality. Space does not expand or contract, for it is limitless. Consciousness is the life of space, present within all. This consciousness is the Paramātmā, the singular supreme Self. The apparent many are like beads on a single thread, connected by the one Ātmā. Realized saints express this truth in their bhajans, which contain the essence of all wisdom. The individual self, or Jīvā, is ultimately this one consciousness, appearing as many through duality. All forms are like drops from one ocean, destined to merge back into the whole. Our journey is to realize this unity. "Eko’ham, dvitīyo nāsti." I am one. The rest is duality. "Śrī Guru Ātmā Paramātmā." The Guru, the Self, and the Supreme Self are one. Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

The essence of spiritual longing is the heart's suffering for the Divine. This viraha is not negative but a profound belonging to God and the Guru. Worldly pleasures are a poisonous mirage of ego and pride, ultimately unreal and unattainable. The joy they promise is less than the sorrow they bring. Therefore, turn your back on this illusory world and face the reality of the Master. Satsang is the tree of immortality. The human body and its faculties will one day refuse service, lamenting their misuse for selfish pursuits instead of sacred purpose. This worldly garden will dry up. The only true pilgrimage is to be where the saint is, for the sole aim is to realize God. Through the Guru's grace, the soul realizes immortal peace. "The joy of the joy is less than the sorrow of the joy." "This beautiful human life—who knows if we will get it again." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Practicing of the system "Yoga in Daily Life", Level 3 - Part 1, in Om Vishwa Deep Gurukul Swami Maheshwaranand Ashram, Jadan, Rajasthan, India on 27th of October 2009.

Brahmari Prānāyāma is a profound practice for inner balance and sound vibration. This practice involves specific techniques with the lips closed. First, place index fingers gently in the ears with teeth together. A second technique relaxes the teeth slightly apart. The sound and vibration originate from the navel and permeate the head. Sit straight in Vajrāsana or with a straight spine on a chair. The practice balances the body's energy and chakras. It draws awareness inward, away from external sounds. Share these techniques freely for well-being. "Observe from which direction this sound travels." "The sound originates from the navel." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The essence of devotion to the spiritual teacher is total surrender and attentive receptivity. A true disciple absorbs every word from the teacher, considering each a divine nectar essential for growth. Questioning the teacher's actions is forbidden, as illustrated by the story of the guru saving a scorpion despite being bitten; each being follows its nature, and the guru follows the dharma of compassion. Even divine incarnations required a teacher, underscoring that a life is incomplete without one. The teacher's grace is everything; without it, the disciple is like a pot with a hole, unable to retain the knowledge being poured in. True devotion is rare, often corrupted by worldly desires for succession or property, not by genuine sorrow at the teacher's passing. The prescribed ritual for the holy day involves fasting, offering items like sandalwood and a garland filled with devotion, washing the teacher's feet, and performing full prostration to seek blessings and forgiveness. "Guru Kripa hi kevalam, śiṣya ke ānanda maṅgalam." "The scorpion's dharma was to bite; my dharma was to save it." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

A universal prayer and the practice of Brahmārī Prāṇāyāma are offered for global peace and spiritual unity. The world faces widespread difficulty, yet all paths lead to the supreme cosmic Self. Yoga is an ancient science beyond physical exercise, encompassing the divine soul. Humanity must remember its shared origin, like a single seed that becomes a tree with many identical fruits. Modernity has lost this natural continuity, reflecting the discord of the present age. The solution is to turn inward, for the entire cosmos exists within the human body. The practice of Brahmārī Prāṇāyāma is a specific technique to harmonize internal energies. It is named for the bee and involves creating a humming sound to purify internal channels and quiet the mind. This practice can alleviate internal sounds and headaches, guiding one toward inner peace. "Eko brahma dvitīya nāsti. There is only one, that is one, and if there are two, there is duality." "Go within yourself. Then you will see, 'Oh, now I know myself.'" Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Swamijis morning lecture from Vep, Hungary on 24th of May 2010.

Maintain cultural and spiritual harmony through yoga and compassion. Cultural festivals should be preserved and celebrated to educate future generations. All religions contain harmony, but politics often creates conflict. Brotherhood must be created globally, respecting all faiths without negative influence. Yoga serves two aims: ensuring good health to reduce aggression and awakening inner peace. Harmony and love naturally arise in a spiritual community, not through force or transaction. True giving benefits the giver without loss, fostering positive karma. Spiritual figures often faced hardship, reminding us to see the divine in everyone and cultivate good qualities. "Yoga has two aims. That is the science of body, mind, and soul. Yoga is for good health." "Give or not, but you take all the karmas of that poor person, that will reflect on us."

Trāṭak is concentration through gazing. Tilak is a mark of spiritual balance and wisdom. Trāṭak involves fixing the gaze on a single point, such as a candle flame, a dot, or the new moon. This practice develops concentration and inner clarity. Gazing directly at the sun should be brief to avoid harm. The true inner light is not a visual phenomenon but the light of wisdom at the Ājñā Chakra. Applying a Tilak at this point symbolizes this wisdom. The Tilak, made from substances like sandalwood paste or ash, helps balance the body's energy channels. It is a spiritual practice, not merely a religious ritual. This balance is part of the eternal natural order. Without discipline and a qualified guide, forceful practice can be dangerous. The power of focused gaze is real, but it must be used with purity and care. "Trāṭak means we gaze on one object." "Tilak is very, very important and very spiritual."

Life is a spiritual education guided by a greater plan, not by our own designs. We are not the bosses of our life but artists in a divine play, receiving roles for this lifetime. We are one family moving through lives and places, developing spiritually. Education has two wings: material knowledge for living in the world and spiritual knowledge concerning our origin, purpose, and aim. With only one, we are a bird that cannot fly. The arrival of a great saint brought spiritual guidance, changing everything. This guidance manifests in communities, like the growth of vegetarianism and yoga centers. There are no coincidences; even childhood inclinations align with later spiritual work. When we listen to the Guru's guidance, we are steered past life's obstacles. Our relationship with the Guru is paramount. He gives completely, living for others, which is holiness. Our spiritual practice involves giving—knowledge, service, kindness—which in turn brings growth. The purpose of all yoga activity is spiritual growth, achieved through mindfulness of our inner thoughts and actions. We are to walk step by step, holding the hand of the Master, who leads us to our destination. "Life is education." "If we get only one education and not both, we are like a bird with only one wing.
