Mother and father
0:15 - 0:45 (30 min)
The mother is primary, her connection to the child is fundamental and sacrificial. A mother carries the child and will protect it above all else, even at her own physical peril. The father provides and is good, but the mother's bond is immediate and profound. One must have good children and be good parents. Current difficulties arise when parents did not act properly. The spiritual practice involves the navel center, which originates from the father's seed but is received and known by the mother's body. From a single seed comes great growth.
"A mother is a mother. For the child, she is very humble and very good."
"The nābhi is which came from the father... but the mother, she was feeling that my child is in something, in my body, yes. Father doesn't know, he cannot understand, but she knows."

Sri Alakhpuriji and the Himalayas
0:46 - 1:14 (28 min)
The Earth is a living, divine creation designed in perfect balance. Human activity disrupts this balance through mining, deforestation, and construction. The Himalayas are a young and holy mountain range, the abode of great saints and the manifestation of divinity. The saint Ālakpurījī embodies Śiva in the Himalayas, where his disciples and the river Alaknandā carry his vibration. One purifies the inner self through pure thought, nourishment, and behavior to merge with the divine. All souls ultimately return to the source.
"Our Earth is a living planet, a Living Earth."
"You are not a Hungarian. If you are Hungarian, okay, and that Hungarian also is not all."

We should be good for others
2:30 - 2:58 (28 min)
A cold night in a forest reveals our fundamental unity and compassion. I recall a family sheltering animals from the cold, embodying selfless care. This contrasts with a world pursuing material gain and harming life, as in hospitals. True yoga is not mere exercise but daily kindness to all beings, aligning with our inner goodness. We are interconnected; anger and negativity harm this unity. By returning to thoughts of the divine guide within, we cultivate inner beauty and purity. In this challenging age, we must remain strong, help others, and recognize we are all one essence.
"Try to thank you, to thank you all the times."

The materialized OM
3:05 - 3:27 (22 min)
A refreshing wind signals progress as we prepare for the temple's opening in four months, a short time when busy. The leader's presence accelerates the work, though daily changes are subtle until seen from afar. This completion is a divine achievement of a great vision, yet it is not an end but a step in perpetual creation. Our role is to participate and support, for every small action has effect. This place transforms the land and society, carrying a universal vibration. We must invite skilled helpers to share in this work for future generations, a gift for all humanity to draw nearer to the divine.
"Time seems to run more quickly when we are busy, when we engage ourselves in activities."

AUM and Chakras
3:35 - 4:40 (65 min)
The resonance of OM and the balance of the nāḍīs govern health and consciousness. The body is a system of 72,000 nerves, centered on three primary channels: the left, the right, and the central Suṣumṇā. The left nostril, or moon channel, governs emotion and change, influenced by lunar tides. The right nostril, or sun channel, represents steady consciousness and solar fire. Their alternating flow every 14 minutes balances the hemispheres and glands. Prāṇāyāma purifies these channels. Techniques like Nāḍī Śodhana involve alternate-nostril breathing to cleanse the nervous system indirectly through lung and blood purification, not by forcing air into nerves. Chanting OM, with its four sounds originating from the navel, creates resonance that heals internal organs. Physical practice must begin with gentle body warming to prepare the joints and circulation, not with advanced postures. Headaches are addressed through hydration and postures like forward bends to increase cranial blood flow. Breath exercises like Bhastrikā and Kapālabhāti cleanse the head and remove tension. Ultimately, these practices relax all nāḍīs, dissolve stress, and restore natural health.
"The left nostril is the moon. The principle of the moon is water, and the principle of the water is emotion."
"We cannot put the air in our nerves, but it goes through the purification of our lungs, our oxygen."

6:25 - 7:01 (36 min)
The Earth suffers from human exploitation, and our food has been destroyed by the loss of natural seeds and chemical pollution. We have dug coal, diverted water, and injected chemicals, making the mother suffer. Seeds that once lasted for generations now must be bought anew, and our vegetables are tasteless and dangerous. Educated people have ruined everything. Many diseases arise from this corrupted food. Yet, some are returning to cultivate good seeds at home. We must detach from worldly attachments to move toward the Supreme. Attachment, or moha, is the heaviest obstacle to self-realization. Discipline and satsang are the paths to remove this attachment. A story of a detached king illustrates that true renunciation means no attachment, even to family. Our senses and mind constantly seek more, but we must direct the mind through satsang and wisdom to control attachment while in the body.
"Holy Gurujī used to say that Bhagavān Viṣṇu put seva and mokṣa in a scale. And the scale of seva was much heavier than mokṣa."
"Attachment will always be as long as we have this physical body, as long as the indriyas are active. There will always be. But we should know this: that we wake our wisdom to know and to decide."

How shall we go further?
8:45 - 9:45 (60 min)
The unity of all beings resides in the divine. Different paths and names lead to the same truth. All are coming to the Guru's grace. The soul is one, like a drop returning to the ocean. The physical body and worldly possessions are temporary and left behind. All humans, animals, and life are to be respected equally. A realized yogi lives in divine joy, seeing no difference between stone and diamond, beyond all dualism and desire. That yogi lives in the world as if dead to the ego, immersed in emptiness and peace. The essential practice is to be humble, loving, and without anger, recognizing our shared humanity and spiritual origin.
"Like the ocean, we know how much water is in the ocean. And it goes up in the air nicely."
"This yogi is living, but inside he is dead. He lives as if he is dead, but he lives, because there is nothing in him, there is only emptiness."

We have to go on that path
9:50 - 10:47 (57 min)
This bhajan is a meditation on the holy feet of Alak Purījī. Singing it places one in that divine presence, bathing in the Caraṇāmṛta that flows eternally. This sacred river, Alak Purījī, is the Divine Mother, Nanda Devī, whose radiance sustains the universe. It represents the primordial source from the Satyuga, a lineage from Brahmaloka. The path of devotion is as narrow as walking on a knife's sharp edge, requiring total concentration amidst worldly distractions. One must walk this path with unwavering focus on the Guru, not divided like cheese. The present age demands this focus to awaken and save souls through this grace. The word "Alak" signifies that which is beyond writing or full description.
"Feel yourself in meditation at the holy feet and the holy dust of Alak Purījī."
"The path is called Khaṇḍa Kī Dhār. The sharp part of the knife, and over on that you have to walk."
We should have roots
10:55 - 11:54 (59 min)
Yoga is a progressive path requiring tailored techniques for growth, like a child advancing through life stages. We must evolve beyond mere physical exercise to teach yoga's full science, especially at universities where its depth is often unknown. Many traditions and teachers exist, each with their own disciples, just as every mother has her own child—all are valid and should be respected. True roots come from genuine lineage and practice, not from those who claim exclusivity. Modern life severs these roots, leading to disconnection, much like a leaf blown from its tree. Our goal is to merge with the divine, like a drop returning to the ocean, through sincere practice and loyalty to authentic teachings.
"University, but I don't know what yoga is. So, we have to teach them at the university. Because only physical exercises are not enough."
"Similarly, everyone has their mother, their father, their children, friends, etc. And that is what we call the best path."

Selfless action and bhajans

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. Swami Gyaneshwar's report from Jadan. You know, I've been living in India for a while now. If you come to Jadan from Jaipur, you will feel the special atmosphere, the peace of the place. In the minds of Indian sages, secular and spiritual knowledge go hand in hand. Karma yoga is selfless help. In Jadan, there is always the possibility to continue the work. In the West, people are used to being alone at any time, so it is difficult to work together with others. Chanting bhajans creates the emotional basis for karma yoga.

Around the world - Yoga exercises specifically for women
15:00 - 15:36 (36 min)
This is a gentle yoga sequence for menstrual well-being. We begin with relaxation and full yogic breath to harmonize body and mind. Specific postures target the pelvic area and lower back. The first exercise involves bringing one knee to the chest, then extending the leg, performed slowly and consciously. This is followed by Marjari, the cat pose, to create a supple back. We then practice hip-opening postures like the half and full butterfly. A key squatting pose is emphasized for menstrual issues, grounding, and leg strength. We proceed to Setu Āsana, the bridge, to strengthen the lower body. A final side-lying balance pose benefits the lower abdomen. Conclude by feeling the effects of the practice.
"This exercise is especially good for menstrual problems, and also beneficial for the lower back, constipation, and hips."
"This pose is especially good for women... for irregular menstruation, or for heavy bleeding between periods."
Around the world - Practice in Ukraine
15:40 - 16:30 (50 min)
Begin the practice of āsanas, prāṇāyāma, and meditation. Close the eyes and attune to the practice. Scan and relax the entire body. Observe the complete yogic breath. The first āsana is Ānanda Āsana, the posture of relaxation. Lie down comfortably and consciously relax each part of the body. Physical relaxation leads to spiritual relaxation. This posture must be performed at the beginning and end of every session. Next, train in abdominal breathing by placing a hand on the abdomen and observing its movement. Conscious abdominal breathing leads to relaxation and improves circulation. Practice stretching the body by extending the limbs in rhythm with the breath. This releases accumulated tension. Perform head turns and twists while lying down to increase spinal mobility and harmonize the breath. Always observe the effect of each exercise. Move through shoulder exercises while standing to relax and strengthen the joints. Shift body weight from leg to leg to strengthen muscles and improve balance. Conclude by returning to Ānanda Āsana. Scan the body and observe the deepening relaxation. Gradually conclude the practice by moving the fingers and toes. Rise carefully, always moving from lying down through a transitional seated position.
"Physical relaxation leads to spiritual relaxation."

Vegetarian cooking lesson 18, Hungarian soup
17:00 - 17:25 (25 min)
A guide to preparing traditional Hungarian goulash soup and roly-poly dessert.
Begin by roasting onions, then carrots, to develop color. Add garlic, ginger, and celery as the oil changes. Incorporate spices: cumin, black pepper, and salt. The essential ingredient is sweet red pepper. Add potatoes and a small amount of water to create a dense base, boiling for ten minutes. Prepare noodle dough from flour, salt, honey, water, and a smear of oil; the consistency should not stick to the hand. Chip small noodles, linking the process to mantra repetition. Add more water to the soup for the desired volume, along with tied parsley for flavor. The soup must cook to achieve an orange-red color, roughly an hour.
For the roly-poly, make a dough from flour, sour cream, sugar, salt, oil, and baking soda; let it rest. The dough should be soft and oily. Flatten it, keeping one half sticky. Fill with a mixture of cottage cheese, sugar, vanilla sugar, and lemon juice. Seal the pastry well, press the edges, and create patterns with a fork. Fry in sufficiently hot oil until light brown and crunchy, then drain excess oil. Serve the roly-poly with vanilla sugar, jam, or sweet cream.
"The heart of Hungarian food: the red pepper. This is the sweet one, not the hot."
"The dough should be soft, but the outer part can be a little bit light."

The grace flows from Mahāprabhujī to his disciple, Maṅgīlālji. All revered beings are manifestations. When Maṅgīlālji requested his mantra, Mahāprabhujī declared he had no need, calling him the greatest. All are disciples regardless of origin. The complete ones are as described: life is essentially just two, Śiva and Rāma. Maṅgīlālji, made of Rāma, is above all and is a Jīvan Mukta. That liberated state is the ultimate goal for which one must strive. Blessings flow from their mantra.

Our lineage is an ancient spiritual reality connecting all humanity.
Our ṛṣi lineage originates from Śiva in the Satyuga, a primordial era for the entire world. Early humans lived simply in nature, yet violence existed. Sacred knowledge, including yoga in its fullest sense, emerged from Himalayan ṛṣis who lived on vegetation and performed yajñas. This wisdom spread globally. The seven ṛṣis, seen as stars, are ancestors to all people, linking traditions from Australian Aborigines to others. Our specific paramparā includes Ālakpurījī, witnessed in the Himalayas, and the miraculous Devapurījī, who restored life. The great Mahāprabhujī is worshipped as Bhagavān. A banyan tree at the Kathu ashram stands as a living witness to this truth, as affirmed by my Gurujī. We must keep this lineage clear.
"Yoga means not only postures and prāṇāyāma, but everything is called yoga."

Yoga is One
19:00 - 19:31 (31 min)
Yoga is the practice of yoga in daily life. Many have taken the teachings and given them other names, but what they offer for practice is often incomplete. True yoga requires full discipline, not merely physical exercises. A core principle is non-harming; one must not eat meat or consume alcohol. Many modern adaptations accommodate rather than uphold these standards. Our comprehensive books provide the correct path. The practice is for everyone, regardless of background, but it demands daily commitment to the entire teaching, not just discussion. We must return to the authentic beginning and proceed step by step.

The Vedas
19:35 - 20:20 (45 min)
The Vedas are the holy scriptures of Sanātana Dharma, representing a vast river of knowledge. This knowledge was originally transmitted orally from master to disciple through Śruti, listening, and Smṛti, memory. In the Kali Yuga, human memory declined. To preserve the Vedas, the sage Vedavyāsa dictated them continuously. Gaṇeśa agreed to write them down on the condition that the dictation never stop. Gaṇeśa used his own tusk as a writing instrument. The knowledge contained within the Vedas is immeasurable, likened to the entire Himalayan mountain range compared to a mere handful of dust. All spiritual paths and practices originate from yoga. The goal is to internalize this knowledge through practice and meditation, ultimately cultivating peace within oneself to share with the world.
"Śruti is what we listen to from the master—remembering the master's teaching. Smṛti is memory, so that one becomes the master or the great receiver who knows everything by heart."
"Till now, what you have learned is only as much as the dust in your hand. And the Vedas are like the whole Himalaya."

A spiritual journey demonstrates the expansion of awareness through yoga and ethical living. Initial travels faced skepticism, yet sincere invitations led to growing gatherings. Permission from the Guru guided the return to Europe and the establishment of an ashram. Teaching emphasized yoga, meditation, and a lifestyle free from meat and alcohol. Many adopted these practices, experiencing health and peace. Observations reveal a growing global interest in this conscious living, though challenges and misunderstandings persist. Warnings are given about consuming certain foods like eggs and processed items due to unseen impurities. The path requires personal vigilance in diet and continued spiritual practice.

21:20 - 22:01 (41 min)
The daily sādhanā is your foundational and constant path, containing the essence of all techniques. Begin at the Mūlādhāra Chakra, where Gaṇeśa resides as the ruler of everything. This practice is for all, regardless of life situation, but requires pure living free from harm. Consistent practice leads to the heart and brings peace, while abandoning it leads to a fall. The knowledge comes from many great sages, not from one source. A detailed book maps the centers within. The ultimate reality is the union of Śiva and Śakti. Practice this core technique once daily.

Welcoming Address and Valedictory Session on Yoga for Wellness
23:00 - 0:08 (68 min)
Yoga for wellness is the subject, moving from practice to integration for national health.
Yoga has gained global acceptance, increasing India's responsibility. The conference aims to establish policy parameters. Yoga is about holistic wellness, not merely cure. Two key features emerged: the need for integration between traditional and modern medicine, and the need for scientific evidence on yoga's impact on specific diseases. Integration must move beyond co-location to active cross-referrals. The ultimate aim is to use yoga to reduce the number of patients. Generating robust scientific evidence is crucial for global acceptability. The presence of both traditional and modern practitioners signifies the desired integration.
"Yoga is not just about a cure. It is about health, overall well-being, and wellness." "We need to generate scientific evidence about the value of yoga if we want true acceptability."
