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." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

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.'"

Meditation is the practice of turning inward to answer life's fundamental questions and realize one's divine nature. Humans possess a higher purpose beyond basic animal functions. One must regularly ask: What does it mean to be human? What good qualities define humanity? What is my life's mission? Modern life often lacks this ethical education, leading to depression and aimlessness. Meditation provides answers, motivation, and a direct connection to the self. It reduces stress, recharges energy, and clarifies one's situation. The technique requires proper posture, a personal mantra, and a meditation shawl for protection and focus. By withdrawing the senses and observing the breath, one accesses inner peace and cosmic energy. "Meditation is an answer to thyself. All thy questions, the meditation will give the answers." "Meditation is a way to thyself, means to God. It doesn’t matter which God you believe... Only one thing remains: divine love." Filming location: Bratislava, Slovakia

Impurity accumulates like dust, and compassion must extend to all beings. In a pure age, a dog unjustly beaten by a priest sought justice from a divine king. The king assembled the people and the priest, who admitted to the act without cause. When asked for a suitable punishment, the dog requested the priest be reborn as a prosperous temple head. This was not a reward but a setup, for in that life of greed, he would fail to share, leading to future suffering. This illustrates that harming any creature, driven by mere prejudice, creates negative consequences. The current age sees increased violence toward animals, a sign of spiritual decline. True practice involves non-violence, caring for creatures in our charge, and maintaining physical health through disciplined practice. "From the time of the Satya Yuga, people were mostly only eating fruits and vegetables; they were vegetarians." "The dog said, 'I want one sādhu, or some yogī, or somebody like this paṇḍita, and we should give him this punishment: in his next life, he should have a beautiful ashram and become the head of that ashram.'"

Compassion is the essential practice, moving beyond "I" and "mine" to serve all life. The primary gift is food for the hungry, human and animal alike, which is giving life. Many traditions exemplify this unconditional service. In some places, all are fed equally without refusal, holding sacred texts in the highest reverence with specific protocols to maintain purity. The core principle is to love, protect, and feed, never to kill. At life's end, the soul departs alone, leaving everything behind. Without grace and refuge in the guiding truth, one remains trapped in the endless cycle of rebirth and suffering. All paths of genuine devotion and surrender lead to the same unity. "Love them, protect them, feed them, do not kill them." "Without the Guru's grace, you will fall into the cycle of 8.4 million [life-forms]." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Auckland, New Zealand.

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." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A divine lineage transmits eternal truth across ages. Many cultures possess unique spiritual expressions, yet one perennial wisdom flows through specific channels. Our lineage originates with Śrī Alakpurījī from the Satyuga. He nurtured countless yogīs and saints. Bhagavān Śrī Devapurījī performed sādhanā in Alakpurījī's Himalayan cave, attaining great siddhis. From him came Bhagavān Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇ Mahāprabhujī, a source of profound knowledge. Our Sadguru Swami Mādhavānandajī received blessings from Mahāprabhujī from childhood. Preceding generations included great beings, like one who manifested a full moon on a dark night. This continuous lineage connects to the present. Great saints often remain unseen, guiding all creatures. When one finds this path, an inner light of peace awakens automatically. The restless mind must be controlled to realize this. "Wealth, prosperity, money, properties... all will remain here on the earth." "When the prāṇa goes out of the body... that jīva will go alone." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga is a universal science, yet its practice manifests through diverse traditions and names. All religions and their sacred calendars must be respected, not deleted. Changing time itself, like daylight saving, disrupts natural harmony. Different yoga schools or healing methods are like various names within one body or nation; the essence is one. Physical practices like asana prepare the being, but they do not touch the soul. For that, one must ultimately go to the Guru. The Guru is the final point to cross the ocean of worldly existence, serving as mother, father, and Satguru in the lineage. "One in all and all in one." "Without Gurudeva, who can let us cross the ocean of that saṃsāra?" Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The divine principle of Śiva embodies the universal balance between opposing forces. All traditions worship the one God, who manifests through various forms. Śiva represents the conscious force that maintains equilibrium between positive and negative energies, which coexist in all creation—humans, animals, and nature. These dualities are inherent from birth, like twins with different natures, yet both are sustained within a greater harmony. Our spiritual practice involves recognizing and balancing these inner forces. Physical balance exercises are a direct method to cultivate this inner stability, aligning body, mind, and spirit. Focused postures and breath work prepare us for deeper meditation, fostering contentment and peace. "One side is what we call the sāttvic and spirituals, the holies... But the others also have that; they are very much doing wrong things, fighting. Yet both have to be balanced, like birth and death." "In each and every creature, there are two—negative and positive. Not only in humans, but also in other creatures—animals, trees, fish, and everything—they have that nature and are working with it." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Our spiritual lineage is a living river from an ancient source. We adore our roots from the Satyuga and great saints like Ālāpurījī. This path is like the Alaknanda River, flowing powerfully from the Ālakpurījī glaciers. The Pāṇḍavas, over 5,000 years ago, journeyed toward the Himalayas on their final path. They traveled to Badrināth, following the rivers. A deep part of the Alaknanda River became a final symbol; they could not cross it, and Bhīma placed a great rock there. Draupadī died first, then the other brothers, one by one. Their ashes were taken to Ālagpurījī’s cave, a place we have visited. Yudhiṣṭhira, with a dog, received blessings and crossed seven glacial steps to proceed. Ālagpurījī and Devpurījī possessed Siddhi, the power to move through rock. When visiting, one must go slowly, touch the stones, and breathe with the thin air. We are blessed to know these roots. Yoga is beyond the physical; it is the path. Do not seek miracles or compare gurus. Like the river, every drop is part of the oneness. We are all one from Ālagpurījī to the present. "From the lotus feet of Ālag Purījī, this river flows." "Like that river, each and every drop of water from the glaciers comes to that river, and it will go further. Everyone is one." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

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." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The divine principle is immanent within the natural order and our own being. The sun is a constant divine presence, essential for life; without its balance with the moon, earthly stability would fail. This cosmic balance mirrors the delicate equilibrium within our own bodies, where each organ is vital. To deny the divine nature of these elements is a form of blindness. The divine is not a separate, distant figure but is present in all things—the sun, moon, earth, and within ourselves. Argument over the form or name of God is futile and leads only to spiritual disease. Realization comes from understanding this inherent divinity in everything, returning fully to the sacred earth that supports all life without judgment. All names point to the same one reality. "Within two days, if the sun does not rise, we will be finished. And if we are not balancing this moon, then everything will fall down." "Therefore, let all go as they are going, but those who have the realization, they understand again, come completely down to the earth." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

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." 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.

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." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The Kali Yuga presents a severe trial, demanding unity. A time of great calamity approaches, with disasters, disease, and agricultural ruin. Yet, a path exists for those with correct knowledge to merge with the cosmic Śiva. Śiva's nature is universally compassionate, embracing all people and religions without exclusion, unlike other forces that may discriminate. Śiva's blessing is the paramount solution. The precious human birth is easily squandered without understanding. Time, once lost, never returns. Therefore, one must remember Śiva constantly through repetition of His names, cultivating real devotion to the inner Gurudeva, who appears in many forms beyond external designations. This devotion is the essential grace. "Śiva said, 'All of you are very good. Let be.'" "Human life in this world is very, very precious. If you do not understand and you lose it, then you have no knowledge." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga is a single path of awareness, open to all regardless of external form. Its essence is inner awakening, not merely physical postures. Many techniques exist, from gentle breathwork to strong asanas, but practice must be adapted to one's capacity and health. The true color of a yogi is internal, a commitment to awareness that transcends robes or householder status. This alertness, like a skilled driver fully present, is the core of practice. All possessions and attachments are temporary; only the soul proceeds. Therefore, harmonize in oneness, using yoga for holistic well-being without sectarianism. Practice wisely, respecting the body's limits and seeking proper guidance. "Yoga is only one, and it is not only physical movements; there are more techniques, and all is called yoga."

The essence of spiritual attainment rests solely upon the Satguru's grace. Without the Satguru, no task is accomplished. However many millions of methods one may try, one cannot cross the ocean of worldly existence. Pilgrimages, fasts, and penances are insufficient without the Guru's knowledge. The true wealth is the worship of the Guru. Liberation comes only through surrender of body and mind. The Satguru's blessing is an eternal rain that nourishes devotion where divine efforts fall short. Spiritual practice requires the direct transmission from a true master. Satsang is communion with truth. Modern external gatherings often become distractions, lacking the authentic vibration found only in a genuine lineage. Yoga is universal but must be rooted in the knowledge given by a realized guru from an unbroken tradition. "Without the Satguru, no work is accomplished." "Surrender body and mind before the Guru."

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." "All this will remain here. You can’t even touch. The body will not go together; anything from the body will go."

A global crisis prompts reflection on humanity's unique spiritual and physical condition. Why does a pandemic target humans specifically, across all nations and beliefs? All creatures possess the same fundamental layers of existence, yet humans alone wield the power of action beyond mere survival. This century's afflictions stem from human karma. The widespread turn to meat consumption after the world wars, increased alcohol use, and the industrial production of food have introduced disease. Consuming such nourishment stores illness within, which may emerge later in life. Even vegetables now contain chemicals. The suffering we see originates from human actions, creating a poisoned environment. This is the age of Kali Yuga, where negative forces are prominent. True religion is self-control, and real yoga extends far beyond physical postures. We must first ensure our own spiritual protection to safeguard others. A great conjunction of planets is occurring, a rare celestial event. The coming Satya Yuga is governed by a divine timescale vastly different from our own. Ultimately, all paths return to the yogic essence within. "Slowly, attacks come. It is like a beautiful, big tree: one or two bugs enter, then slowly worms multiply and eat the entire trunk from within." "Practice yoga and daily life, and sleep very peacefully. Look inside; see what will be good. You will be protected." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

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."

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."

We are in a time of global change requiring balance and discernment. The lunar cycle moves from darkness to light, affecting all nature. This is Kali Yuga, an age of division where hidden negativity surfaces. All previous ages contained both good and bad. People often claim their path is the only good one, like children arguing. The current era sees increasing negativity across the world, manifesting as conflict and disease. This signals a necessary purification and the rising influence of Śiva, the balancing power born from the elements. Spiritual practice, like yoga or chanting, cultivates inner balance amidst external turmoil. "True holy saints do not label things as simply bad or good." "In my position, I will take this vaccine.

Yoga practice is a circle from intention to breath. We begin with a saṅkalpa, a silent wish repeated three times. Daily life turns attention outward, but yoga asks us to observe inward: our body, position, and feelings. There is no competition; challenges are personal, and progress brings inner satisfaction. Children are engaged through stories and animal-mimicking āsanas, learning which body parts each posture affects. We prepare the body with exercises like the butterfly to loosen hips for prāṇāyāma. The correct posture for breathing is any comfortable, steady seat. The joy is witnessing progress, from restless movement to coordinated control, which refreshes both student and teacher. "The most difficult for me is rolling, because it is fun and loosens the spine. The hardest part is grinding, because the muscles in the arms and head hurt." "Often, when I come here after a whole day of work... completely refreshed, I leave after an hour of yoga." Filming location: Croatia

The interplay of Puruṣa and Prakṛti defines life's duties and stages. Prakṛti is nature, both the sustainable environment and an individual's inherent character, which can manifest as imbalance or disaster. Puruṣa signifies conscious action, or Puruṣārtha, which must be performed with discernment. This work is structured through the four aims of life: dharma, artha, kāma, and mokṣa. To fulfill these, human life is divided into four stages. The first is brahmacarya, the student life dedicated solely to gaining knowledge. The second is gṛhastha, the householder stage of great responsibility, providing for family and offering hospitality to all. The third is vanaprastha, a retirement of renunciation and deeper practice. The fourth is sannyāsa, complete detachment, seeing the whole world as one's family. These stages align with the seasons. The ultimate aim is to transcend duality through spiritual practice, recognizing the divine in all. "Prakṛti is nature. Prakṛti is that which is created by God and is itself sustainable." "Dharma is not a religion, but what is your dharma?... if you follow dharma, even if it is very hard, you should follow. Then dharma will follow you, will protect you."
