Wisdom of the Holy Scriptures
0:10 - 1:11 (61 min)
Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Many many Masters knew the past and present and wrote numerous books and scriptures. Some books were destroyed, but light can't be destroyed. Knowledge awakening within us is Guru Vidya. Our brain is slowly becoming sleepy and we don't realize this. Hatha Yoga is to purify ourselves.
Keep your heart and turn towards the Cosmic
2:40 - 3:34 (54 min)
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."

The Practice and Significance of Brahmari Prānāyāma
3:40 - 4:32 (52 min)
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."

We should control ourselves
4:40 - 5:32 (52 min)
Yoga encompasses many paths, not merely postures or breath. The desire to practice must arise from within, never from force. God grants immense knowledge and freedom to choose, yet certain boundaries exist. Choosing negativity leads one away; choosing goodness aligns with the cosmic. Many yogis have researched inner techniques, all aiming for the same center despite different approaches. The practice of Brahmari Prāṇāyāma is a powerful technique for the brain, promoting coolness and resonance. It draws from natural sounds, like those in water or wind, and from observing creatures like bees and termites. This practice influences the subtle nerve system, offering potential relief. Always consult a doctor for serious conditions and let personal feeling guide your practice.
"God said, 'I give you everything. You should know good or bad.' Yet, which path you take is your power."

The friendship brings us together
5:40 - 6:31 (51 min)
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."

Feel the confidence and God will help
6:35 - 7:21 (46 min)
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."

Do something good
7:25 - 8:10 (45 min)
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."

Practice leads to the development
8:15 - 8:58 (43 min)
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.
Practising bhramari pranayama techniques
9:05 - 9:45 (40 min)
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."

The reality is within you
9:50 - 10:27 (37 min)
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.

Protect Yourself, Keep Discipline
10:35 - 11:11 (36 min)
Morning Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Try to eat organic food, as far as possible. The main problem in the world is pollution. It is very hard to protect ourselves. Human life is an opportunity, it is not certain that you will get it again.
There is God in your instruments
11:15 - 11:55 (40 min)
The human life is for spiritual practice to realize the divine within. Practice brings harmony to the family and peace to the individual. Perform daily rituals, remember the divine name, and live with gratitude. This life may be the final opportunity to complete one's purpose and attain the supreme. Many techniques exist, but disciplined practice is essential. Do not teach a method until you have fully mastered and experienced its results yourself. True mastery comes from dedicated practice over time, where the practitioner becomes an instrument of a higher power. The path of sound, like in Brahmari Pranayama, holds immense power to connect with the ultimate reality.

Practicing of the system 'Yoga in Daily Life', Level 2 - Part 2
12:00 - 13:11 (71 min)
The practice of Yoga in Daily Life continues systematically from Level Two, beginning with relaxation and progressing through specific āsanas and prāṇāyāma. A session starts with three Oṁ chants and deep relaxation in Ānanda Āsana, consciously releasing tension from toes to forehead. The full yoga breath is practiced, coordinating a three-part wave with movement. The āsana sequence includes Meru Pṛṣṭhāsana for spinal flexibility and energy, Catuṣpada Āsana for stretching and organ function, and Cakrāsana for posture and digestion. Each posture is performed with attention to breath, comfort, and the resulting physical and energetic effects. The practice concludes with prāṇāyāma to balance breath channels and a meditation preparation, ending with chants for peace.
"Āsana means, except for other meanings, also comfortable. So āsana should be a comfortable position."
"After exhalation, try to feel the complete relaxation of all the muscles and the inner peace, and stop all the movements in your body."

Devotion to Gurudev
14:15 - 15:12 (57 min)
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."

Worldly joy is just an illusion
15:20 - 16:30 (70 min)
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.

Tratak and Tilak
16:35 - 17:37 (62 min)
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."

A hatha yogi is one with Nature
17:45 - 18:40 (55 min)
Hatha Yoga is a discipline of alignment and harmony that begins with life itself. Its principles apply from infancy, where correct physical support prevents pain like a displaced collarbone, to the natural care shown by elders and animals. True discipline is universal, required in all work and life. Hatha Yoga is not merely exercise; it requires endurance and a calm nervous system. Techniques include conscious breathing and natural remedies like the neem tree, which purifies and strengthens. Ayurveda is the science of life, using plants—roots, herbs, and leaves—without harm. A Hatha yogi lives as one with nature, drawing healing prana from trees and surrendering to natural law, which offers more than any hospital.
"Discipline is not only for the yogīs. Discipline is for all animals. And even the trees have a discipline."
"A Hatha yogī is one with nature, and he is surrendering to nature."

The reflection of the Self
20:40 - 21:52 (72 min)
The light of the Self is realized through grace and alert practice. Time is a human construct; only the Supreme is unchanging. We are bound in saṃsāra, coming and going due to karma. The body is a temporary bag discarded at death, but the soul remains. Do not depend on others for your spiritual work; you must eat the food yourself. Holy books and teachings are like injections of wisdom to awaken us. Practice sādhanā and ātmācintan—thinking deeply on the Self. This reflection, or 'chilka', of consciousness is glimpsed through repetition like in bhajan. Remain alert and awakened, using tools like the mālā to maintain this awareness. The five sheaths of the body are temporary; you are not these layers. The soul is one in all. Do not become overly attached to worldly life and sorrow. The work is to realize and spread this inner light.
"Guru Kripa Hi Kevalam." "Don't depend on someone to do it for you."

Yoga, Faith, and Integration: A Personal Journey and Panel Discussion
23:00 - 0:04 (64 min)
Yoga is a faith-based system for wellness and healing, integrating consciousness with the body. A personal testimony describes overcoming a cancer diagnosis by refusing conventional treatment and rewriting one's mental blueprint. The individual believed revised thoughts would communicate with cells and DNA to halt disease progression, attributing survival solely to yoga practiced with faith and discipline. This illustrates yoga's potential beyond physical postures, focusing on divine energy and consciousness.
Panelists discuss integrating traditional Āyush systems like Homeopathy, Āyurveda, and Siddha with yoga and modern medicine. Homeopathy treats the whole person mind-body-intellect economically. Āyurveda and yoga share principles of removing prāṇic blockages through detoxification and lifestyle. Siddha medicine inherently includes yoga and varma therapy. All emphasize a holistic, health-centric approach over a disease-centric model, addressing root causes like stress and suppressed urges. The World Health Organization supports developing evidence-based yoga modules for non-communicable diseases and exploring integrative service delivery. The spiritual core of yoga is to raise human consciousness, with health benefits being natural side effects.
"If you allow God’s energy to run into your system by removing the ignorance that blocks it, God will provide the miracles."
"Yoga and Āyurveda are like the two faces of the same coin. If we can integrate both concepts, probably we can render wonderful results."
