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." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The practice of Aum moves through the chakras with prāṇa. Chanting extends beyond three repetitions. The numeral system uses nine digits and the essential zero, invented in India. The sound for the number nine often relates to 'N' across languages. The Earth is a globe, first lifted from the ocean by the Varāha avatāra. Destiny is pre-written by Vidhātā, a divine power, for every being at birth. This script is immutable; life events, including survival, follow its decree. Ancient scriptures, primarily in India, contain this knowledge. An extended story illustrates that even the powerful Rāvaṇa could not alter the destined marriage for his daughter. Therefore, one should not worry excessively. Perform your sādhanā and duties. Destiny ultimately rests with God and may be transcended through yoga practice over time. "Destiny is yours, mine, anyone's—your dog, your cow... What is in the destiny is already written therein." "What she writes, no one can change. Yes, no one can run from it."

Sound is the inner Self, equal in all. Bhajans and music resonate as spiritual nourishment, awakening the nervous system and kuṇḍalinī. The melody alone can induce harmony and higher consciousness, a form of yoga accessible to all. This resonance is the fifth Veda. Yet, like the fly that leaves sandalwood for waste, some are not drawn to this purity. The coming Diwali celebrates divine incarnation, a return to light marked by fire, bhajans, and community, echoing the universal joy of Bhagavān Rāma's homecoming. "Instruments are for those who are singing alone. For them, it is not only the instrument but the voice, the sound. And that sound is called the inner Self, which is equal in all." "Even if the translation has no correct meaning, the melody of the one who is singing is enough for everyone to be happy." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The sense of life is to become happy and free from past suffering and karma. Satsaṅg is the best way to attain this peace. Our inner self, which seeks happiness, is a part of God. We often search for this self externally, but it cannot be found that way. To understand God and oneself, one must attend satsaṅg and study the scriptures. Yoga is the union of the self with the Cosmic Self. All who take physical form, even God, must endure certain sufferings according to cosmic law. We are here due to our karma, while God incarnates by free decision, yet He too must accept difficulties, sometimes due to curses. Even a great devotee like Nārada once cursed Viṣṇu, causing Him to incarnate again. This occurs when one's intellect becomes confused. We must always pray for positive intellect. "If the self is searching for the self somewhere, we will never find it anywhere." "The difference between us and God is that we came to the world because of our karma, and He came according to His own decision." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 155b

The divine lineage is eternal, manifesting across all ages. From the Satya Yuga through to the present, this sacred tradition continues. Great saints perpetually appear, representing a twofold divine expression: one is the singular incarnation of God for an era, and the other is the everlasting succession of saintly Gurus. This is not about a single individual; there are many Gurus, just as there are many parents. All are manifestations of the one divine reality. Your parents are your gods, yet we respect all elders as such. The soul is one, though forms differ. Other traditions are good, yet they often speak of a God from the past, not a living, ever-present God. Without a living God, it is like a child whose mother has died; where does one find that direct love? We must transcend duality, for God is everywhere. "One is as God, what we call, appearing once in that time... the second is called the saint, known as the Guru Bhagat... there is another who is forever coming." "Other religions are also very good, but they have no God—not a living God. Once they have a God, and that’s all." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

States of consciousness reveal our inner and outer life. Waking activity is for the outer world, using all energy from sunrise to sunset. In sleep, we are within ourselves, aware of the inner self filled with divine feeling. This sleep is not nothing; it is a vital awareness given by God. Deep sleep is being one hundred percent aware of the self, comfortable and peaceful. The dream state contains things within ourselves, both good and bad. A constant alertness exists between these states. Therefore, sleeping is very important. A higher level is Yoga Nidrā, a sleep of consciousness toward the Supreme, practiced by yogis. "In sleeping, we were within ourselves. Our whole being is with us, filled with very, very divine feelings." "What this sleep means is that we are 100% aware of our self, and so it is very comfortable, relaxed, and peaceful." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

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

Worldly knowledge is limited, while spirituality is a living tradition beyond it. All beings contain a divine essence, a soul that is part of the living God. This reality is structured within the five sheaths of the body, from the physical to the blissful. Yoga is the eternal science connecting us to this inner divinity, not merely physical exercise. Modern interference, like altering seeds, disrupts natural harmony. True understanding requires realizing the Guru principle within, which is supreme and everlasting. "Yoga is the science of the human." "God is still living. Living God—we are all the living God." Filming location: Slovenska, Slovenia

The mind creates problems in both activity and idleness, revealing its restless nature. A story illustrates the futility of material accumulation. A teacher gave a merchant a needle to safeguard. The merchant's wife reasoned that if the teacher died, the needle would become a karmic debt impossible to repay. The merchant, realizing he could take nothing with him after death, returned the needle. The teacher asked why he accumulated vast wealth if he could not even take a small needle. The merchant then sold his excess property, keeping only necessities, and used the wealth for social good. Another teaching concerns inner development over outer appearance. Natural hair, whether grown or shaved, presents a consistent appearance, unlike changing hairstyles. True growth comes from within, not from outward presentation. A final story tells of a learned sage who, to answer questions about worldly life, left his own body and entered a recently deceased king's body to gain experience. This demonstrates that through spiritual power and discipline, extraordinary inner feats are possible. "If you cannot take such a small piece of a needle with you, then why are you accumulating so much stuff?" "Try building yourself from the inside, not by focusing on how you present yourself to the outer world." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

There is one God, one message, and one sound in the universe. All beings descend from the great ṛṣis, regardless of religion. God is beyond all duality; the soul within each being is a spark of the supreme. Humans, unlike animals, should not cause pain and must live with respect and love for all creatures. Civilization has evolved from a primitive state to one of greater understanding. The spiritual lineage, or paramparā, connects the disciple to the guru and the original source. This path requires integrating yoga into daily life, avoiding separation between practice and living. Inner knowledge, not mere book learning, is essential. The current age presents challenges, but the path remains: to realize the oneness within and live accordingly. "One in all and all in one." "Speak what is within."

The ātmā's journey seeks peace beyond the temporary body. All beings, in any body, search for peace and harmony. We attach to this form, believing it to be permanent, working hard for it and fearing its end. Yet, upon leaving, nothing material accompanies the soul—not house, property, or family. The separation is absolute. Great beings demonstrate rising above bodily pain, understanding the ātmā is distinct. The soul departs swiftly, like a falling star. Ultimately, we are not this body; the true self is a spotless, awakened consciousness within the heart, present in all movable and immovable life. This inner truth is the only reality. "When we go out of the body, nothing. We cannot even touch anything." "Our soul goes like that; it goes out. He doesn't want, my God, how much I was suffering in this body."

The essence is oneness, knowledge, and the guru's grace. Separate drops of rain fall, yet they unite to form flowing water, creeks, rivers, and finally the ocean. The drop and the ocean are not different; we are that oneness. Knowledge is endless, and the cosmic Self is realized beyond the temporary body and its elements like anger or jealousy. These are like air in a balloon; when the body bursts, the air—the space of consciousness—remains. Humans possess knowledge and speech to understand this. A story illustrates this: a professor criticized a meditating yogi, denying God. The yogi noted that a small cherry falling from a tree is harmless, whereas a large melon from such height would injure. This shows divine arrangement is good. The guru's grace is paramount, transcending physical distance. The disciple's connection is in the heart, closer than family. One should not ask the guru for things, as asking creates distance; grace is given spontaneously like a mother's milk. "All drops unite to become the water that flows. Not one drop alone; all must come together again." "God has done everything good." 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.

The foundation of a child's education is the love, presence, and guidance of the parents. A mother is the first and best teacher, providing foundational instruction. When both parents work, leaving the child in another's care all day, the deep, continuous connection is missing. This can lead to a child feeling unloved and becoming depressed, questioning their place. The solution lies with the mother and father. If a child is distant, a parent must dedicate time daily for teaching and bonding. A compassionate tutor, especially a female teacher for a young boy, can provide parental-like love and emotional support to alleviate depression. Parents work for money, but children instinctively seek their mother. We must keep children close. Without proper guidance, children may be led astray by influences like pocket money, which can lead to harmful experimentation. You cannot force a growing child without causing breakage. A spiritual teacher or yoga guide can help redirect one onto the right path. We are all learning until our last breath. Fill the mind with good thoughts and knowledge before sleep. "Who is my mother? I have a mother at kindergarten and a mother at home." "If you give pocket money, I fear it may lead them astray." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The practice of Trāṭaka extends beyond external gaze to the awakening of inner vision. We clean the physical eyes with Triphalā to prepare. Yet true sight is internal. Most practitioners sit for meditation with closed eyes but lack the technique to see inwardly, like a blind person missing a door while distracted. This inner Trāṭaka is not theoretical; it requires a guru's practical guidance on the subtle channels—Iḍā, Piṅgalā, Suṣumnā—and centers like the trikuṭī. It is a disciplined focus, akin to a pilot flying by instruments or an archer hitting a target by looking at its reflection. The guru's gaze upon the disciple and the disciple's focused gaze upon the teaching are one. Mastery comes from prolonged practice, not mere intellectual knowledge. "Almost all yoga practitioners do inner Trāṭaka without knowing it." "If you can shoot your arrow, then you are perfect in your Trāṭaka." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The divine path encompasses human destiny and the nature of existence. All beings are connected to the Supreme. Divine incarnations appear to guide creation. God is present within every element and creature. The human body contains the five elements, animated by divine energy. Life continues through cycles of rebirth. One's actions and consciousness determine the future birth. Destiny operates, as illustrated by ancient stories. Unfulfilled desires, or vāsanā, can pull the consciousness back into worldly life. Spiritual training under a master is the path to transcendence. The relationship with the divine persists regardless of physical distance. The goal is to realize one's true nature beyond these cycles. "God is everywhere. In each and every cell in our body, and in every creature, is God." "Destiny is there, and so many times, your destiny will be, can turn back again." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga is the path of returning to oneness, merging the self into the Supreme. All beings, through different paths, ultimately converge like rivers to the ocean. The journey begins from birth, where a mother's care and a father's guidance are the first lessons. This innate purity and innocence are the foundation. Meditation is not a rigid practice but a return to that comfortable, natural state. However, the inner journey requires directing consciousness upward. Energy must ascend through the central channel; if it descends, one becomes lost in worldly emotions and loses vital force. The goal is to rise to the highest consciousness, not to be pulled downward by transient thoughts and feelings. Stay on the path, for leaving it in search of another leads only to exhaustion. True guidance comes from within and from all who point toward the Supreme. "Like clouds become rain, water flows on earth, collecting into creeks, rivers, and finally one great river whose power finds its path back to the ocean. Similarly, we all, in different ways, return to oneness." "In your meditation, how do we meditate? We go up through the cakras. If you go down, you are lost."

True meditation is found within, not in external pursuits. External experiences are temporary, like falling leaves or pictures of food that cannot satisfy hunger. The source of lasting peace and power resides inside every person. Looking outward in meditation is like a father distracting a child with promises; the comfort is fleeting. A seeker performing many rituals found no peace until instructed to simply rest inwardly and surrender all effort. Another devotee could not see Kṛṣṇa in meditation until taught to calm the inner vision. All that is sought—God, the guru, harmony—is already present within the self. The journey requires turning the senses inward to discover the permanent source behind the temporary world. "Go within thyself. Whatever is given from outside is given... But what is given from outside is temporary." "Close your eyes and rest. Give it to me... Don’t think anything. Now you should know that I am in my body." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

This is the time to return to our inner self. Humans work very hard externally, constructing roads and buildings, often with environmental cost. This external endeavor is great, but we work too hard outside. If we worked on our inner body for one or two hours daily, that would be very good. Yoga is that inner engineering. It is not merely external exercise but acting for the whole world from within. The techniques are already within, showing how the body is continually made better. Yoga practice gives exercises for the inner body, leading to peace and harmony. The difference is we often do too much externally while neglecting the inner self. "We humans work too hard externally. If we worked on our inner body for one or two hours each day, that would be very, very good." "Yoga is the engineer, not a human. The techniques of yoga, all that God has made, are already within."

The inner flame of life is the vital energy within, distinct from physical fire. This prāṇic flame is the essence of consciousness through waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. Even in blindness, an inner light perceives through vibration and voice. When the body sleeps or tires, this light dims but retreats into the ātmā, never extinguished. The flame can appear to depart at death, yet life may linger as seen in a bird revived. One must care for this flame through practices like trāṭak and Hatha Yoga, feeding it with sustenance. Great yogis remain awake in meditation even as others sleep, navigating states of consciousness. The soul's journey continues beyond the body, like a flame moving far away. "Where the lamp is gone. And where the flame is gone. That has gone into our ātmā." "Others are awakened, and the yogīs are meditating. And others, they are sleeping. And the yogī is awakened."

Yoga is an endless path of connection and expansion beyond all limits. Yoga is not merely exercises. Each breath and every cell in the body is a living yoga, a universe in itself. The physical body contains all elements—earth, fire, water, air, and space—mirroring the cosmos. This constant movement is yoga. Therefore, yoga is endless, ever-expanding, with no completion. This expansion and contraction is Śiva, present in all beings, beyond religion or nation. The spiritual journey is like ocean waves seeking to expand endlessly but being pulled back by the shore, or like water evaporating only to fall again as rain. This returning force is attachment, a binding rope that prevents liberation. Practice is essential to go within. Chakras exist throughout the body and universe, but seeking powers is not their purpose. The true guru is not merely physical but is the inner guide, the ātmā. The cosmic principles of Śiva, Viṣṇu, and Brahmā change cyclically. The final door is to sit, let the ātmā be, and follow the breath without force. Inhaling and exhaling is the path; the prāṇa knows all. Meditate with awareness of the breath and the guru within. "Each and every breath in our body is a yoga." "Yoga means connecting."

The inner light and the practice of trāṭak reveal the soul's journey. The soul enters the body like a seed finding its place, guided by an inner light from the navel. This light is the jīva, the soul itself, present in all creation. Every seed, tree, and creature possesses inner eyes that seek their destined path through concentration. This seeking is trāṭak. The story of a guru saving a devotee at sea illustrates the power of this inner connection. The guru's astral body traveled and returned through the navel center, or nābhi, demonstrating that true sight is inward. All external vision is secondary to this inner light, which connects the individual soul to the universal. "Every seed again gives eyes to the roots." "Trāṭak of the nābhi and Gurujī came."

Satsaṅg and a sacred morning routine create a divine atmosphere for spiritual life. The environment of an ashram provides peace, which is the result of true satsaṅg. In genuine satsaṅg, there should not be excessive singing or instrumental music, as this creates business and distracts from the teaching. A single saint can provide satsaṅg for all, just as the sun's light dispels darkness. The purest atmosphere is one hour before sunrise. Upon waking, one should cleanse the body with water, which brings purification and awakening. Sleep is crucial for restoring the body and mind, like repairing a machine, but it must be natural and not induced by substances. The first hours of the morning, used for personal practice and offering respect to family and the divine, constitute your own life and spiritual foundation. The rest of the day's work is for others. A Guru exists in a divine state beyond ordinary sleep, demonstrating perfect spiritual awareness and guidance for the disciple. "Peace and bliss are the result of satsaṅg." "One sādhu, one saint, is for all." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A pilgrimage is a journey of the heart to purify oneself at a holy place. I have been here for three months, observing the great atmosphere and disciplined bhaktas. We welcome you to this beautiful day at our āśram. Many came from various countries, all respectful and healthy. Our programs and satsaṅgs were successful, with space for hundreds while maintaining distance. I feel great devotion and recall our pilgrimage to the Himalayas. We traveled with hearts full of longing to step on India's holy soil, to see the Gaṅgā, which is more than a river—it is a mother. We journeyed to Badrinath and toward Alakpurījī's cave, where the terrain was harsh but the bhaktas' feeling was pure love and unity, beyond comfort or facility. The essence is bhakti—devotion is all one needs, not material wealth. We ask our Gurudev to be with us as we make our prayer. "One who goes to the holy place... they are going from the heart, and they are making their heart pure." "Dear Gurudev, give me only devotion... Money is nothing, money goes out of the hands, it will come again, but in the heart... I need the bhakti." 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
