Welcome to all who have journeyed from afar. You have traveled a great distance. Where there is love and divine feeling, there is no distance; it is always close. This center now serves for spiritual practice. A story is shared about a disciple whose guru asked for a living lion as an offering. The disciple brought the lion and was told he himself would be the lion from then on. Another story tells of a king who served his guru unconditionally, even fetching lion's milk for him. These are not mere stories but realities illustrating the relationship between guru and disciple. The disciple's role is to accomplish the task, while the guru's role is to speak it. Your collective effort in preparing this place is a similar testament. Do not be like the fox who dismisses unreachable grapes as sour. The relationship is like a pot being shaped: firm on the outside but soft and protected within. A seed has been planted; with time, it will grow into a great tree bearing much fruit. "Bring the lion and put it in front of me, living. Then I will give you mantra dīkṣā." "Only two lips move, but others have to work and do what to do." Filming location: Slovenska, Slovenia

Make your human life perfect through humility, service, and inner practice. Learn humility for yourself. Practice helping all humans and animals. Do not take, but give. We possess immense cosmic energy; we only need the will. We can go into ourselves and find endless happiness and peace, like the entire ocean. When we wake, our world is before us; we should give throughout the day. In sleep, we receive energy and everything from within. Our inner meditation is not to be attempted by oneself; it is a different technique from the Guru's lineage. Reflect: what is my life and for what purpose? We are all searching for the Guru on the path. Our physical practice, like Barikatu Pranam and Sarvahitasana, warms the body and returns the self to itself. It strengthens the system and regulates breath. Our lifespan is counted in breaths; we deepen them to inhale and exhale less often. Conclude by feeling your being within and offering mental devotion. "Learn humility for yourself. Practice helping all humans and animals." "We know our lifespan is counted with our breath... we try to prolong our breaths so we do not need to inhale and exhale so often." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Saturday's powerful constellation brings both benefit and challenge, reflecting Śani's influence. A story tells of a guru carrying a watermelon that briefly appeared as a severed head due to this energy, illustrating its transformative power. To navigate such influences, one makes a lifelong vow, a saṅkalpa, like giving up a specific food. This principle of promise extends to sacred commitments like marriage, which are not to be abandoned. On Guru Pūrṇimā, all actions and karmas from the past year are offered to the guru. The relationship with one's guru is singular and foundational, like that with one's biological parents. The core practice is to surrender everything to this guiding source. "A promise is not just saying yes or no to something. It is a promise. When we make a promise, we have to follow it." "On Guru Pūrṇimā... I give all my karmas, my practice, Gurudev, to you. And what mistakes I made, I also give to you." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The practice of yoga unites us with the cosmic self, fostering oneness among all beings. All traditions and religions aim for health and goodwill, especially during holy days like Christmas. These times invite reflection on the past year and prayers for future peace. The core teaching is that all existence is interconnected—humans, animals, and the living Earth. This unity is expressed through the five sheaths, from the physical to the blissful body. Yoga in daily life is this unifying practice from the Satya Yuga, a tool for joining, not dividing. Festivals and traditions worldwide are expressions of this spiritual unity. The ultimate realization is that everything is contained within the one, and the one is within all. "One in all and all in one." "Yoga means uniting. We are joining; we are not throwing." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The human heart has lost the natural harmony of togetherness found in all creation. Modern life separates families across the globe for work and titles, leaving homes empty of real connection. This separation drains love, reducing family bonds to brief, hollow greetings. True love is a profound, unifying force. In this disconnection, the practice of yoga becomes essential. Yoga is the union of the limited self with the limitless consciousness, creating balance and harmony. It is the resonant principle that unites all existence. The human form is a temporary gift; one must use it to realize this divine union or lose the opportunity entirely. "Prema kā pyālā hari kab merā barase." (When will the cup of divine love rain upon me?) "Yoga means attention, together. So we are one, we are balanced, and we are in harmony." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Maintaining a joyful heart is essential, especially during challenging times. The current global depression stems from a collective error. This situation arose because humanity alone was affected, prompting reflection. Many have turned inward, discovering family and abandoning harmful habits. Depression has become widespread, closing hearts and mouths. The practice of Yoga in Daily Life offers a path forward, emphasizing openness and relaxation. Laughter is a powerful tool to reopen the heart. True beauty and wellness are found within, not through external adornment. The physical body, while important, is just one layer of our being. "People have turned very much inward. They understood what family is." "Beauty is your heart, beauty is your words, beauty is your behaviors." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A message of health, harmony, and yogic practice for all. This is a time of global concern regarding health and impurity in the environment. Maintain cleanliness and personal hygiene. The practice of Yoga in Daily Life, including Sarvahitāsana, offers simple exercises for all, performed gently to awaken the body and improve circulation. These subtle movements can be done anywhere to regain and preserve good health. Respect all people and care for the health of family and community. Follow health guidelines and use Ayurvedic preparations like kaḍā for protection. Practice prāṇāyāma alone. Commemorate spiritual teachers and lineages through personal observance at this time. "We should all remain as one, in peace and harmony." "Every day, practice yoga. That’s called yoga, which is Yoga in Daily Life." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The soul's eternal search is for the master, the guru, who provides the essential inner knowledge. Yoga has existed since the beginning. The soul comes from the universe, developing practice in the cosmic realm before arriving on earth. Its nature is pre-ordained. Each soul has different inherent tendencies. This soul is searching for the guru. There are two kinds of knowledge: worldly education and the inner lecture from the master. That inner quest awakens the feeling of searching. A destined opening occurs, creating a longing to learn. Worldly knowledge, while good, is insufficient. Without the guru, no work is complete. One may try countless methods, but cannot cross the ocean of existence alone. The true guide comes from the Brahmalokas. "Without Gurudeva, no one can do it." "Without Gurudev, we cannot succeed." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Without the Guru, no work is accomplished. Millions may strive, but none can cross the ocean of worldly existence without that guidance. All beings, from the smallest creature to the greatest, carry the soul within and long for liberation from the cosmic self. Rituals, pilgrimages, and austerities alone are insufficient without true knowledge. The journey of the soul is long, through many births and states, including hell, but all beings will ultimately reach the Supreme. For the human birth, proper upbringing is the essential root. Parents must provide constant love, protection, and conscious education from birth. Limit toys, especially violent ones, and prioritize moral learning, good food, and rest. Choose good friends and teach respect for teachers and country. This conscious care awakens the soul toward the divine. "Guru sā binā kārya naiṁ sare. Koṭi upāya kare, koī chāye, na bhava-sindhu tare." "Give them knowledge, and how to call it, the learning... more important is the parents’ education." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Awakening is the first step to yoga, beginning with humility and respect. Upon waking, a light opens in the heart, bringing knowledge to the brain, making us aware. This awakening recognizes "I am human," an awareness shared by all creatures. The next acknowledgments are to God, then to Mother and Father. The earth is our mother, the sky our father; we exist between them, supported by both. A yogi once asked the distance between earth and sky. The answer is from the foot on earth to the top of the head. Our steps are on the mother earth, under the father sky. Yoga is not merely postures but the journey where all diversities, like rivers, merge into the one cosmic Self. Practice begins with the intention to do only good. "From earth to sky, where our foot is on the where? Earth. And where is the height of the sky? Only till the head." "When we practice the āsanas, we imitate... the art-typical posture of the natures... we get rid of those karmas." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Purification is essential for spiritual progress, as an unpurified life yields no lasting fruit. Every spoken word fills one's being with energy. True practitioners possess peace, harmony, understanding, and love, irrespective of their life status. Chanting connects one to divine energy, yet the mind must be cleansed of ego and anger. This requires consistent effort and humility. Flexibility is key; like a tree's branches that bend with the wind, one must adapt to avoid breaking. However, strong roots of inner purity are vital, or the entire being can be uprooted. The human root is the mind; if it breaks, all is lost. Liberation is possible until the last moment. One's records of karma determine the future. Good deeds create good karma, and misdeeds create bad karma. Good karma does not accompany one but leads to rebirth in a favorable position. To be free, one must transcend both good and bad karma by performing selfless good actions and surrendering all to the divine. Spiritual pride is an obstacle. The soul is the same universal essence in all movable and immovable existence, though it assumes various forms based on karma. Do not create dualities of superiority, as this is ego, which destroys like a storm. One must work diligently toward complete unity. "Consider a big tree. A strong storm comes, and the wind blows. The branches should move with the wind. If they go with the wind, they will not break." "In the Bhagavad Gītā, it is said that the roots of trees go down, but the roots of humans, in the brain, go up." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Dīvālī commemorates the return of Bhagavān Rām to Ayodhyā. The celebration originates from that event. When the message of his return came, people traveled great distances. As night fell, villagers lit oil lamps to light the path. They decorated trees with food and hung lights. Everyone arrived singing and dancing, without tiredness. The reunion was marked by heartfelt embraces. The following day is for giving gifts and blessings, symbolizing generosity and shared sustenance. The festival of lights represents the inner light of the heart and spiritual love. "People lit oil lamps so those walking would have a path to follow." "When you hug someone, your heart and the other’s heart should meet, heart to heart." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The human path requires living by human qualities and purification through practice. We possess a superior brain but often act with cruelty, especially towards animals. Our negative actions, like polluting water and modifying seeds, harm all life and ourselves. This contributes to suffering and the cycles of birth and death. Techniques like meditation, yoga, and prāṇāyāma exist to cultivate respect, love, and harmony. Purification removes negative energies from the body. Traditional practices, including ceremonies and mindful living, support this. We must examine our actions and diet, as they influence our future states. The current age challenges these human qualities, making conscious practice essential. "Therefore, what yogis begin to practice are techniques of meditation, yoga prāṇāyāmas, yoga āsanas, yoga kriyās, etc. Many beautiful techniques exist for humans to remain with human qualities." "Prāṇa gayā to sab kush gayā. Prāṇa has gone, everything has gone. And as long as prāṇa is... there we are, life in this is the body." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Evening satsang with Swami AvatarpuriJi from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. Why you should never doubt your Guru? A story about Lord Shiva. If you do good karma in a previous life you will get the fruits in this life. Karma is always coming back. Even Lord Rama and Lord Krishna had a Guru. Mauna makes you happier inside. Singing Bhajans.

The wealth lies in the vision of the Guru, a treasure of conscious bliss beyond all ritual. This is the core of spiritual practice. All yoga practices aim to elevate human consciousness to a state of universal love. Begin the day by consciously awakening the body upon rising. Honor the earth as a mother and use water to awaken the nervous system. Greet parents to foster familial unity. Then have darśana, seeing the divine in your spiritual symbols. This conscious approach brings peace to the household. Extend this mindfulness to respecting your food and your work. At work, solidify your roots like a tree endures various conditions; your stability affects others. Even the joyful greeting from a house pet reflects the heart's genuine connection. Knowing "I am human" throughout the day prevents negative actions and fosters mutual respect. "O japā tapa yoga nahīṁ banāyāve, karuṇā nidhi dayā pramāṇave." (Neither repetition, austerity, nor yoga can accomplish it; only the treasure of compassion and grace is the proof.) "Only when we know that I am a human are we awakened the whole day."

The earth is a shared home, and purity is the path to harmony. Countries are human constructs; we are all children of one earth. A global pandemic emerged, affecting humans profoundly. Inquiry reveals that dedicated practitioners of yoga and a sattvic, pure lifestyle—avoiding meat, eggs, and alcohol—were not affected. This indicates a truth: a life of yoga, meditation, harmony, and non-violence aligns with our clear human purpose. The human soul is the final stage in a cycle of countless lifetimes. The challenge is to escape this wheel of rebirth through spiritual understanding. Respect all life, for every creature feels pain. Modern distortions equate "high society" with impurity, but true elevation is humility, kindness, and helping all. "Animals do things to animals, but we humans should know better." "If you want to get Guru Kṛpā, you need a blessing, which is from a true master." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The tree of life stands as a constant shelter for all beings. A great tree endures all seasons, offering shade and refuge. Countless creatures live within its roots, climb its trunk, and nest in its branches. It provides leaves, flowers, and fruits, giving its body as food and oil. Even when stones are thrown or its wood is burned for warmth, the mother tree endures and gives. A story tells of an old, proud tree felled by an axe with a wooden handle, showing how one's own substance can be turned to destruction. Yet the tree's essence is eternal; a fallen leaf carries the seed for new life. The tree declares its eternal presence, a protector in whose lap all existence rests. "All twelve months we go through different situations, but we are all in our family, in our house, we are there." "No one can burn me, no one can destroy me. I am eternal. As long as the earth is, I am with thee." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Sandhyā is the sacred meeting point, connecting light and darkness, form and the formless. This junction is essential for all life, as creatures and plants depend on the cycles of day and night. The practice of Sandhyā is a form of worship where one cultivates purity, avoiding negativity. Human spirituality navigates two paths: sākāra, worship with form, and nirākāra, the formless. Both are valid, yet the form provides a necessary foundation for most. Without the tangible—the mother, father, guru, or deity—the spiritual journey can become barren. True worship, though directed outwardly, is ultimately an honoring of the self. The goal is to move from darkness to light, but this requires the embodied experience. Qualities like knowledge, austerity, charity, character, and patience are essential for this journey. A story illustrates four types of people regarding wealth: those with it neither here nor in heaven; those with it only in heaven; those with it only here; and those blessed with it both here and there, gained through righteous living and generosity. "Sandhyā is a meeting between mother and child, and it is a meeting between mother and father." "Bhagavān said, 'as long as you cannot understand properly, then you should see the form.'"

The journey of connection spans lands and lives, bound by a shared human spirit. Travels across Australia reveal vast landscapes, holy sites, and the importance of respecting sacred places. Disciples are found worldwide, maintaining connection across distances. The recent global difficulty affected many, yet the essential unity remains. All humans are one, beyond country or creed. We must cultivate humility, kindness, and non-violence. The body is temporary, cared for through practice, but it will pass. Concepts of eternal heaven or hell are human constructs; existence is a cyclical movement within divine space. Familial and spiritual bonds are profound. Parents and gurus hold sacred roles, with loyalty and respect being paramount. Our lineage connects us to the divine source, and a compassionate lifestyle aligns with well-being. "All are one: human. So we should all have friendliness." "God will not count white or black. God will not count like that. Only the human, and we should be humble and kind to each other."

The observance of samādhi connects to ancient lunar cycles and the foundational numbers of existence. The system of nine numbers and zero underpins all counting, reflected in the 108 beads of the mālā. Human life is governed by such cycles and the guidance of Jyotiṣa, yet human counting is ultimately a limited construct. The bond of shared salt signifies sacred trust, a principle often broken in the current age. The Guru's grace is absolute and transcends physical departure, as demonstrated by the divine communion between Guru and disciple. The Guru's power is complete and beyond ordinary understanding. "Jala Dari Aab, Aṭhaṅga Jala Bhariya, Adh Bicha Chalarei Jaj, O Gurudev, my boat is in the middle of the ocean, and you left me. What will happen now?" "Guru is a guru. Guru can do anything."

A journey unfolds from personal crisis to spiritual awakening through the Guru's grace. A life in America, surrounded by material pursuit, led to physical injury and deep questioning. Searching for healing introduced a reluctant yoga practice. Discovering a book compelled a journey to New Zealand, where a meeting with the Guru felt like a destined reunion. The Guru's instruction to teach and later to open an ashram was initially resisted but ultimately accepted. Teaching Yoga in Daily Life in the West reveals a society where yoga is often mere gymnastics and core values are crumbling. The current global situation acts as a collective tapasyā, forcing introspection. True yoga is not sequential postures but the purification of all layers of being, integrated into daily life and simple human interactions. "Everything is just crumbling. How can it get any better?" And Gurudev just said, "Put it in the fire." Tapasyā. "I practice Yoga in Daily Life. That’s my job on Wall Street." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The human condition is a divine gift, yet we exist in a state of moral ambiguity, believing our actions are good. The soul enters a physical form endowed with five sheaths, or kośas, beginning with the Annamaya Kośa, the physical body composed of elemental energies. All life, across 8.4 million creatures, shares the same essential jīva, or life force, cycling through existence. Life sustains itself through life; the inner fire of hunger necessitates this. The ultimate reality is singular, referred to by many names—Allah, Brahma, God the Father—yet is not a physical being. Conventional heavens and hells are not separate realms but different conditions within creation. The ethical path is to avoid harming others, to forgive, and to transcend the five sheaths, which encompass the physical, energetic, mental, wisdom, and bliss bodies. "It’s not only one God. Finally, there is only one." "There is no heaven. Heaven and hell are one room and another room." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
