Stories are within you
2:50 - 3:48 (58 min)

A morning satsang on the guru's grace, devotion, and the power of teaching through stories.
"Na’haṁ kartā means we are not the doer. We cannot do it. If we think we do, it may be confusing. So we give it with both our hands; we surrender it at the holy feet of Mahāprabhujī."
"So, when someone asks you, and you give… The answer first to them. First, give your answers... The answer is yours because you are now a great man."
The speaker, Swami Avatarpuri, opens with the principle of surrender to the guru's grace. He uses analogies, like a sculptor transforming stone into a worshipped deity, to illustrate how devotion elevates the ordinary. He shares a parable about a poor man whose selfless act of seeking answers for others ultimately solves his own plight, emphasizing the power of selfless service and positive speech. The talk concludes with personal anecdotes about the value of stories as a tool for learning and connection.

3:55 - 4:42 (47 min)

A spiritual discourse on prāṇāyāma and the interconnectedness of life, addressing modern pollution.

The lecturer delivers an evening talk, beginning with the science of breath (Pūrak, Rechak, Kumbhak) and the sacredness of Sanskrit. He expands the theme to describe a profound chain of pollution: of the Earth, our physical bodies through toxins, and finally our minds through negative thoughts. He presents yoga and prāṇāyāma as the essential science to purify these layers, explaining how breathwork balances the Ida and Pingala nadis and burns away karmic impurities, ultimately leading to unity with Brahman.

The basics of ancient Indian philosophy
9:35 - 9:45 (10 min)

A guest lecture on Sanātana Dharma, Āyurveda, and the nature of wisdom versus science.
"Science is something that you discover. Science is where you discover wisdom; you don't discover this."
"So my question to my family this evening is that: what is that change? Because this is a dead organ. It's transplanted into a man or a woman who is alive. So why do the habits of this person change?"
Mr. Amasinghe, an Āyurveda specialist and devotee, addresses the gathering. He argues that Yoga and Āyurveda constitute a timeless wisdom, not a discoverable science, and laments the loss of historical evidence due to invasions. Using the analogy of an object that cannot be wet or burned, he points to the eternal Self (ātmā). He then discusses reported personality changes in organ transplant recipients, proposing an explanation based on the retention of a secondary prāṇa (dhānyamaya) in donated organs and the traditional necessity of cremation to release the final life force.

The speaker narrates the cosmic origin of Śiva as the eternal (Ādi) source from which Brahmā and Viṣṇu manifest, defining their roles as creator and protector. He then explains the festival's origin by telling the story of a desperate hunter who, while waiting in a Bīlva tree, unknowingly worships a Śivaliṅga by dropping water and leaves upon it throughout the night, thereby receiving Śiva's grace and protection for his family.
