The hidden powers in humans - Nadis
11:15 - 11:46 (31 min)
Yoga is the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness, achieved through balance. The universe is an endless cosmic body containing a consciousness that desired to multiply, initiated by the sound Oṁ. From this resonance, the five elements were created, forming 8.4 million creatures, including humans distinguished by intellect. The human body contains 72,000 energy channels (nāḍīs) receiving cosmic energy. Three primary channels—Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumṇā—govern emotion, activity, and consciousness, intersecting at energy centers called chakras. Key chakras include Mūlādhāra and Sahasrāra. Kuṇḍalinī is the symbolic serpentine energy whose awakening unites these channels. Consciousness (Śiva) and energy (Śakti) must coordinate. Lower chakras relate to animalistic behaviors when active without heart coordination. The mind coordinates between subconscious impressions and conscious desires; it cannot be controlled, only guided. Physical practices are not yoga itself but methods to create the balance that is yoga.
"Yoga means balance, and where there is a balance, there is a harmony, and where there is a harmony, there is a unity, and therefore yoga means literally the union: the union of the individual consciousness with the cosmic consciousness."
"The mind cannot be controlled. If you control the mind, then psychic problems will appear. You cannot control the river, you cannot block it, you can guide the river."

12:50 - 13:14 (24 min)
A spiritual discourse exploring themes of purity, perception, and human nature.

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 Inner Conflict of Śiva
20:15 - 21:10 (55 min)
The inner conflict arises when devotion is tested by personal attachment. Śiva knows Satī has concealed her test of Rāma. She claims she only paid respects, hiding that she took Sītā's form. Śiva meditates, sees the truth, and praises Rāma's protective power. An inner dialogue begins. Śiva faces a dilemma: Satī is pure and cannot be rejected, yet loving her now feels like a sin because she assumed Sītā's form. He fears losing his devotion to Rāma. This crack in resonance cannot be repaired. He decides inwardly that unity through this transformed body is impossible. Śiva, steadfast in devotion, leaves for the Himalayas. A divine voice praises his solid devotion. Satī, hearing this, is scared and sad, realizing her mistake but struggling with doubt. Finding the way back from error is hard. Reality cannot be changed by any philosophy. Negative talk divides oneness.
"Thank you, Lord. It is your power, your māyā, that always protects me."
"If I will love now the Satī, then my bhakti, part of my bhakti, will be lost."
