Wherever you are Gurudev is with you
0:30 - 1:24 (54 min)
The Guru is the supreme principle encompassing and transcending all. The Guru is Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva, yet exists above this trinity. This truth is chanted to affirm that the divine witness is always present. Meditation's root is the Guru's form, meaning one should concentrate on the divine essence within, not the physical body. Worship's root is the Guru's feet, representing reverence for the foundation from which all guidance arises. The mantra's root is the Guru's word, for speech holds immense power for liberation or bondage. Liberation's root is the Guru's grace alone. Therefore, see the Guru in all steps and in all forms, moving beyond attachment to the physical.
"Guru Brahma, Guru Viṣṇu, Guru Devo Maheśvara, Guru Sākṣāt Parabrahma, Tasmai Śrī Guruve Namaḥ."
"Dhyāna Mūlam Guru Mūrti, Pūjā Mūlam Guru Padam, Mantra Mūlam Guru Vākyam, Mokṣa Mūlam Guru Kṛpā."

We need a Guru
0:30 - 1:14 (44 min)
Yoga requires a guru for true guidance, not mere physical practice. The Bhagavad Gītā states both the formless and manifest paths are equal, but for embodied beings, sādhanā is easier with a guru's clear instruction. Modern yoga often lacks this, focusing only on āsana and prāṇāyāma without ethical foundations or genuine knowledge. Many teach without having been properly taught themselves. The guru's grace is essential for perfection; techniques alone are insufficient. Avoid negativity and gossip. Strive to be a light. If you cannot do good, at least do no harm, and you will remain on the path. True yoga integrates prayer, ethical living, and the guru's guidance into daily life.
"Guru kṛpā hi kevalam—when the kṛpā of the Gurudeva, the blessings of the Gurudeva, that is the greatest."
"If you cannot do good, then at least don’t do bad. Then what will happen? We are standing on the path, neither going this way nor that, and then automatically it will go to the white path."

Mahasamadhi Satsang of Sri Mahaprabuji
2:15 - 3:21 (66 min)
The immortal voice of the Guru is present everywhere. Bhagavān Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇ Mahāprabhujī resides in every heart and is the entire universe. His words are like precious pearls. The lineage continues through great saints, all of whom have returned to Brahman. The Guru's voice is an immortal story resonating throughout the whole world. It is like nectar from an ocean, coming through clouds to earth. Those who drink this nectar through understanding are freed from birth and death. The Guru sees all life as equal. One must become the humblest to receive this. The voice is eternal and will remain as long as humanity exists.
"Sāre viśva meṁ guñj rahī hai, prabhu kī amar kahānī." — "In the whole world, the immortal story of the Lord is resonating."
"Jisne piyā amṛta manbhar ke... There is no one who comes again, birth and death." — "Who has drunk that nectar fully... does not return through birth and death."

Jyotish is the fifth of the Vedas
3:25 - 4:29 (64 min)
Yoga begins before Śiva, in a primordial state of space and consciousness. This state holds the three principles of balance, harmony, and control. From this, the five elements—space, fire, air, water, earth—emerge. Śiva is these elements, having no father or mother. The true horizon of understanding is always receding, like water seen on a distant hot road. The self is not merely the body or mind. The soul departs alone, without fear. The current age brings purification through challenges, guided by Śiva's balancing force. Jyotiṣa, the fifth Veda, offers guidance through life's constellations, such as in naming or marriage, but requires great learning. True progress depends on the guru's knowledge, not self-proclaimed realization. Practice extends beyond physical postures to understanding the elements within.
"Where is the horizon? We will try to go as far as we go, try to come as far as we come, to close the horizon, it goes further."
"Without knowledge of the Guru, nothing can be achieved."

Cetan and acetan
4:35 - 5:31 (56 min)
The call is to move from unconsciousness to conscious knowledge. We face darkness like the pandemic, but we protect and harmonize, not fight. Light a lamp; the sun will rise. Many worship a formful God, others a formless reality, but Krishna says there is no difference—form is just easier to start with. Yoga is more than body movement; it requires scripture, discipline, and knowledge. A difficult time is coming, but Shiva Shakti will harmonize and separate negative from positive. The Guru's grace, both formless and formed, guides from within. Now is the time to be alert. Consciousness (chetan) means being aware even with eyes closed; unconsciousness (achetan) can occur even while awake, leading to harm. Do not be the ignorant one (ajñānī) who acts with inner anger. Knowledge (jñāna) is the aim. The Guru teaches like a mother correcting a child. This alert knowledge is the foundation; meditation is carrying this awareness into all action. It is not merely lifelong technique, which is just breath. The choice is now. The Guru—mother, father, teacher, sage—will guide.
"O my soul, do not be without knowledge. Don't be an ajñānī."
"Be alert now. Ab, just now, not tomorrow."

Without Gurudev there is no knowledge
5:35 - 6:22 (47 min)
True spiritual knowledge and power come only through the guru's grace and disciplined practice within the lineage.
The systematic techniques, like Kriyā Anuṣṭhāna, are of rare quality and lead from the physical to the cosmic. This path is not about worldly knowledge but divine devotion, uniting practitioners beyond religion. Success requires the guru's blessing and correct practice within the paramparā; mixing or altering the teachings leads to failure. A true guru knows and guides the disciple, often invisibly, and the connection is magnetic. These powerful techniques are not for casual teaching or daily use; they must be preserved and transmitted only by those properly authorized. The disciple's sincere practice attracts the guru's grace, which is as specific and nourishing as a mother's milk for her child.
"Without Gurudeva, no knowledge can be."
"Guru Kṛpāhi Kevalam. Only by the blessing of Gurudev."

New Year's Evening Satsang
6:30 - 7:08 (38 min)
New Year's Evening Satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Many cultures count differently the beginning of the new year. The functions of our body are working constantly. When we arrive at the end of our life w die. In reality, there is no time but we counting. We count many functions in our body. Holiguruji said that don't count the days better if you count your mantra. Siva created Brahma and Visnu and he created himself. The water comes from the sweating of Visnu and Brahma created humans. The seven rishis are still in space as seven stars. We should know the line of our family. It is a hard process during those nine months before our birth. In the next life, an elephant can be an ant and vice versa.
Sunset and sunrise
7:15 - 7:48 (33 min)
The sanctity of Sandhyā, the junction of day and night, is a divine time for prayer and oneness. This period demands the avoidance of all negative thoughts and actions, especially harming animals. The morning Prabhāta holds the same sacred respect. Householders are prescribed prayer at dawn, midday, and dusk, eating before sunset and after morning rituals. Sannyāsīs, while maintaining discipline, possess the freedom for spiritual practice at any hour. The distinction between householder and renunciant life is clear, yet no one should claim superiority, as ego creates separation. All beings, from birds to humans, inherently honor these times. The specific moment for evening prayer is discerned by the natural light where one can see the lines on one's palm.
"During this time of Sandhyā, one should never entertain any kind of negative thoughts, negative thinking, or anything negative."
"God said, 'No. I give freedom, and my door is completely open, wide open. Everyone can come... But during Sandhyā and early morning Pūjā, you all come to me.'"

Bhajans awake positive energies
7:55 - 8:27 (32 min)
Awakening to health and awareness is essential in these challenging times.
Negative influences are pervasive, arising from within and without, making protection difficult. Strengthen the body through yogic exercise and proper nourishment. Consume sprouted seeds and soaked almonds each morning. After eating, avoid water for one hour; consume fruit before other foods. Purify your living space, even in cities, by cleaning and allowing filtered air. Practice prāṇāyāma to strengthen the lungs, heart, and brain. Spiritual nourishment from bhajans and satsaṅg is vital for the mind and heart. The bhajan "Chetan Chetan" calls for alertness. We must be aware and wish for good health in all states of consciousness. Positive spiritual practices awaken every cell. Ultimately, you must do the work for your own well-being.
"Chetan means be alert, be aware; you should know."
"Deep means light... Nārāyaṇa is Viṣṇu, Bhagavān Viṣṇu."

Protect the animals
8:35 - 9:06 (31 min)
A prayer for protection and balance in response to suffering.
An earthquake has caused loss and hardship. Prayers and ceremonies have positive effects. We are in Kali Yuga, a distracting age. Shiva will now balance all negatives to bring a better time. Messages suggest more challenges will come. We must act. First, protect all life: in water, on land, and in the air. Do not destroy creatures; love and feed them. From your own food, give a portion to animals. This protection of others is protection for ourselves. Spiritual progress is like drawing water from a deep well; negative actions can break the rope, causing a fall. We should also practice yoga: postures like Sarvahitāsan and prāṇāyāma. These bring health. Breathing is life itself.
"Shiva will balance all. He will bring that kind of energy so that all the negatives or distracting things will slowly, slowly be brought into a good position."
"If we cannot give them something good, then at least we should not destroy them or make problems for them."

Try to open the lock
9:10 - 9:29 (19 min)
Oneness is the divine reality encompassing all beings.
We exist as a small part of a vast creation, living in water, on earth, and in the sky. The Supreme has brought all life into being. Humans, as God's children, were given divine capability. Yet, claiming independence led to negativity and conflict. The solution is likened to opening a locked mala. The divine Name serves as the key to this lock. By focusing on a single, sacred name, one accesses the treasure within. This practice transcends all divisions, restoring harmony.
"God gave everything to their children... What God can do, the human can do everything."
"The best is on this one name... That is the best name."

We should know where our soul is
9:35 - 10:14 (39 min)
Yoga practice is growing globally as people engage more deeply with physical exercises, prāṇāyāma, and meditation. This inward turn signifies a return to the heart. Ancient teachings reveal a past of purity without animal harm, contrasting with present times. The current age sees a division between those who harm animals and those who love them. Development is measured not by science alone but by compassion and non-violence. The essence of yoga transcends physical practice to connect with the inner soul. A spiritual community mourns the passing of a dedicated disciple, celebrating a life of service and devotion.
"The love awakens the perfect self-realization."
"Yoga is not only practicing āsanas... we should know where our soul is inside."

Past present and future
10:20 - 11:52 (92 min)
The year's end invites reflection on life's purpose and spiritual foundations. Human life is inherently challenging for soul evolution. Collective human actions create karmic pressure on Earth, which returns as global suffering, prompting questioning of purpose. Modern consumer society, distant from natural living, often lacks true life philosophy, leading to selfishness and violence by forgetting Sanātana Dharma's foundational unity. This dharma teaches all beings are connected to one God. Following non-violence is the correct path, as karmic feedback, though delayed, is inevitable. A living Guru embodies these principles, providing a real example of selfless service. In difficult times, one must consciously choose a path of right thought, speech, and action, helping others with a positive heart.
"Human life is always a challenge, because that is actually the purpose of the evolution of the soul."
"All ethical teachings and moral rules are based on Ahiṃsā Paramodharma."

Spirituality and joy
16:40 - 16:57 (17 min)
Spirituality is the essence of joy and oneness. It arises from the harmonious union of fundamental principles within nature. The earth provides a maternal foundation, while a paternal energy of light and life animates existence. This union represents the divine source. True spirituality manifests as purity, humbleness, kindness, and peace. Its absence is marked by conflict and suffering, as seen in fractured relationships. We often seek joy externally, yet authentic spiritual joy is found only within. It is the inner state cultivated through harmonious understanding.
"Spirituality: purity and humbleness, kindness, peace, understanding, oneness."
"Spirituality is what we call the joy. Joy is only within ourselves."

Be alert and purify yourself
18:40 - 19:48 (68 min)
The fundamental reality is oneness, a single divine consciousness from which all arises. Every day is divine, yet human minds create separation where none exists. All creation emanates from one source, like countless drops from a single ocean. The individual soul and the supreme soul are not two. The purpose of human life is to awaken from unconsciousness to this truth. One must purify the body and mind through awareness, meditation, and selfless action. All material possessions are left behind; only the consequences of one's deeds accompany the soul. Therefore, cultivate constant awareness.
"One into the one, so the whole space is one, and we are also only one."

The Essence of Prāṇa, Guru, and Disciple
19:55 - 20:53 (58 min)
Life is lived in the present through the prāṇa. The past is a memory and the future is unknown; only the present breath is real. Prāṇa is the vital thread sustaining life, persisting even when breath and pulse seem absent. Yogis learn to live with this energy, aligning with natural cycles like sunrise and sunset. Sleep states—waking, dreaming, and deep sleep—reveal different layers of consciousness. In deep sleep, there is complete relaxation, while dreams carry impressions from our waking life. A true yogi can navigate these states with awareness through yoga nidrā, transforming dreams. This mastery is rare and comes only through the guru's grace. The guru-disciple bond is the essential conduit for this knowledge, transcending mere physical presence or ritual.
"The prāṇa is like a thread; we are hanging on the thread."
"Only that yogī, that guru—we call param-gurus—they can give inside one key."

How can we become a good yoga teacher?
21:35 - 22:55 (80 min)
The path of a true teacher requires lifelong practice and mastery, not quick certification. One cannot become a genuine yoga teacher from a short course or a book alone. It demands years of dedicated training under a real guru, similar to the extensive education required for a medical doctor. This is a gradual process of controlling one's own life and nourishment. The practice works by balancing the five sheaths of the body, from the physical to the blissful. Yogic energy is distinct; physical exercise expends energy, while yoga cultivates a balanced, internal source. The mind is like a wild horse that must be patiently tamed with love and persistence over a long period, not forced quickly. Authentic teaching comes from this deep, personal mastery.
"In order to become a yoga teacher... there is a further level."
"You cannot become a guru in some time. Work, work, slowly, step by step."

Satsaṅg is the true path, more vital than pilgrimage to holy rivers. Today is Guru Pūrṇimā, also honoring Buddha's enlightenment. Various faiths maintain holy days and disciplines, though adherence often falters. True devotion requires unwavering resolve, not merely calling upon deities in distress. Intellect is the divine gift distinguishing humanity; without it, one remains like an animal. Regular satsaṅg uplifts, while bad association degrades. Spiritual resolve is the essential guide.
