The recitation of the Sundara Kāṇḍa, the beautiful fifth book of the Rāmāyaṇa, is performed to welcome Rāma to his temple. This section narrates Hanumān's journey to Lanka, his devotion, and his meeting with Sītā. It details his encounters with demons, his wise counsel to Vibhīṣaṇa, and the gathering of the monkey army. The core teaching is that remembrance and devotion to Rāma are the glorious path. Without divine grace, one cannot attain true fellowship, and without fellowship, one cannot attain spiritual discernment. All strength and success flow from devotion to the Lord. "Rāma kājūkārī phira me āvāṁ, Sītā kaisē udhī prabhu hī sunāvauṁ." (I have come to do Rama's work; how Sita is, only the Lord can tell.) "Sunu daśamukha dyota prakāśa, Kabahu ki nā linha karai bhāśā." (Listen, ten-faced one, radiant like light, when have I ever taken back my word?) Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Morning program from Strilky, Czech Republic. Bhajan singing.

Observing spiritual practice reveals a common human foundation beneath different forms. Many traditions share morning rituals of purification, prayer, and offering. Christians go to church, kneel, and give donations. Hindus perform ablutions and sit peacefully. Muslims wash, pray from their book, and instruct their children. These external forms vary, but the internal impulse is shared. Yet, in many places, this dedicated practice is declining. People are distracted, and communal observance diminishes. True spirituality transcends these separate identities. In a hospital, a doctor does not ask a patient's religion or nationality before providing care. The focus is solely on the human being in need of healing. This illustrates our fundamental unity. Every creature has a body and can feel pain. A single needle causes suffering to the whole body. We are all interconnected. Therefore, do not claim one religion is superior. All contain goodness. Our shared humanity is the primary truth. "Not this is India or Christians or Muslims making or their name. No, only the human, and this comes to them." "In a hospital, they will not say, 'What are you? Which land is this?' But please bring this child or person who has fallen down." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Oosterhout, Noord-Brabant, The Netherlands. Bhajan singing. Remembrance of an old disciple about how she got to Vishwaguruji. There are some generations of disciples of Vishwaguruji living in Europe. A disciple's heart can become gold. Don't give up practising. Our life can become like a safe journey in an aeroplane.

Enter the sacred space of satsaṅg with full awareness, leaving the outer world behind. This environment is a protective bubble of pure energy. Upon entering, consciously set aside all mental burdens and problems, as one leaves dirty shoes at the door. The essential practice is to be fully present in the current moment. Ordinary life is often lived in unawareness, while a yogī cultivates constant awareness of the here and now. Do not dwell in past sorrows or future anxieties. Choose to dwell in uplifting society, or satsaṅg, which strengthens and elevates. Negative company, or kusaṅg, weakens through complaint and fear. The energy of true satsaṅg can transform one's inner state, creating a personal golden age regardless of the external era. Carry this cultivated purity forward. Live life like wearing a pristine white dress, striving to keep it clean through positive thoughts and actions. Real satsaṅg is found in physical congregation with the Guru and the community. Utilize this rare opportunity for purification. Remain a humble disciple, always willing to serve through karma yoga, and continually strive for positive inner change. "When we are in a seminar or in ashram satsaṅg, try not to be in another space and time, 'buying shoes' or something else." "Which society we have, that we will become."

The practice is a meditation on seeing and being. Stand and move the hands, then let them hang. Look down at the earth's gifts, then rise and look up. Look to the left, to the right, and to the front, observing all the many things present. Look up to scan the pure sky, then look down again at the earth. Close the eyes. Open them and look straight, left, right, down, and up. Realize that ultimately, there is no direction and no one—only "I am." This pure being is complete. Sit and perform this sequence five times. A five-minute morning practice establishes this awareness for the whole day. When you look and see everything, it is like leaves falling from a tree; that is what you are. Be thyself. Everything is within. "Close your eyes. What you have and what you are looking at." "And what have you seen? Who has given to you all good things, many things, but always coming differently?"

Satsang with Vishwaguru Maheshwarananda, Kranj, Slovenia. Yoga is universal. Yoga means union, harmony and balance of the body, mind and soul. We can prolong our life by following Yoga and Ayurveda. In yoga, there are ethical principles as well. Practice should be be in the proper order to be successful. If we do it systematically, we will have good health.

The nature of ultimate reality and the soul is an unfathomable question. We speak of existence, yet certainty eludes us. We believe in an afterlife or liberation, but these are unverified thoughts. The material world shows consistency, like seeds yielding specific fruits, but the spiritual realm is unknown. We ask if the soul returns or merges, using metaphors like the ocean and its evaporating waters or a single spark causing a vast fire. These illustrate the puzzle of the one becoming many. Śaṅkarācārya taught that perceived reality is like mistaking a rope for a snake; the fright is real until the truth is seen. Yet the rope itself is not ultimate. Therefore, do not live in fear. Be happy and do your best to enjoy life in this body. The truth is described as "one in all and all in one." Practice meditation to go within yourself, for seeking outside yields nothing. External scriptures and teachings are varied and ultimately unreliable compared to direct inner experience. Maintain your health through practice, but understand that the breath, or prāṇa, is the unseen force controlling life. In the end, we are all in one. "One in all and all in one." "Everything we have to do ourselves." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Morning practice from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Asanas mainly from the first level of Yoga in Daily Life demonstrated and explained by Mahamandaleshwar Swami Vivekpuriji.

The core problem is violence and consumption causing suffering. My disciples asked for help for a sick relative who eats meat. This is the global issue: people consume meat and alcohol, creating suffering and karmic knots. Life, in any form, is sacred. Animals endure great cruelty. Practices like Kṛṣṇa consciousness show a better way through vegetarianism and prayer. Yet people revert to old habits. Humans, endowed with intellect and comfort, exploit and kill other beings who also possess senses and life. We build and accumulate but often lack true compassion, as seen in the lonely elderly who are abandoned. Our actions have consequences. We must help, but the fundamental solution is to stop the killing and consumption. "They are creating many different, complicated little knots." "Each and every living being, every animal, has this."

A great light of purity is coming for humanity. Practice in your place. A revelation was received from Mahāprabhujī and Devapurījī concerning powerful mantras. These sacred words herald a coming age. The current impurity, marked by violence and consumption of meat, will end. A pure Sat Yuga is approaching, replacing the Kali Yuga. People must purify themselves and their children through non-violence. Adopt a diet that causes no harm. This purity will manifest globally, as seen in certain families and disciples. Teach this to everyone. The impure will fade, and pure children will emerge. This transformation is the destined reality. "Kali Yuga is going, and Sat Yuga is coming. So we have to come and purify, purify our body all the time." "No killing any animals, no killings, no killings. We have so much fruits and everything to eat, all good things to eat."

This is our ashram, a place of being and bliss. We are all here together, sitting with sādhus and yogīs, and it is very good. The essence must be in our body. An ashram is our home. Understanding comes from above, from God to mother to human. It arrives directly, like from Akkar to Nābhi. Even a mother may not know how it comes, but it is our prophet. God is the only one and will become human. If humans belong to India, then all children are equal. That one will enter God, will enter the body. We must care for the human mind. We are here, and we will do the work. In construction, one must think about how people feel inside. A building is not just a roof; it should be pleasant. The best materials are natural, like wood and straw, which support humans. Materials modified by humans, like bricks and lime, are good. Stones like sandstone are neutral, but granite harms the body. Modern materials like steel and concrete are dead and not healthy. We follow Vāstu Śāstra, the science of building, so the earth supports everyone living there. We use lime, not just cement, for healthier buildings. Wood is the best material and can be used for multi-story buildings and large halls. "This is our ashram; this is our ashram. And when you see it, oh, it is very nice." "The best materials are natural, like wood and straw, which support humans." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Our true home is found within the heart, beyond physical travel and external change. Observe nature's unity: birds live and die as devoted pairs; cows move as one herd. Humans also journey, leaving birthplaces for other lands, yet a longing for a true home persists. This inner home is not a location but a state of being, accessed through the heart. In deep sleep or meditation, we touch this inner oneness where all separation dissolves. Past experiences and loved ones, like a mother's presence, reside there. Even animals understand this inner truth, as they feel deep connections and know good from bad. Our physical body travels, but our heart holds everything. Therefore, live consciously, examining your actions, and recognize the fundamental unity in all life. Wherever you go, carry this understanding within. "From the heart, inside it is like my last one, my last love, last life." "In our heart, there is everything." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

The discourse addresses the primacy of Kṛṣṇa with his consort Rukmiṇī. For years, emphasis has shifted to Rādhā, but the scriptural and marital reality is Kṛṣṇa and Rukmiṇī. Many deities are acknowledged, yet the foundational truth remains. The lesson extends to marital conduct, advising fidelity and family unity over transient attractions. Correct understanding is essential, as found in ancient texts. The teaching concludes with an explanation of a bhajan describing inner energy rising to the Ājñā Cakra, producing divine light and sound, leading to merging with the divine and praising the guru. "Radha is good, but not on Krishna’s knee." "I sing now the glory of my gurudeva." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga and Āyurveda are two wings for the soul's flight. This is a lifelong work of discipline. The first happiness is a healthy body, called niroga. A healthy family is the foundation; parents must remain together with children for harmony. Husband and wife require mutual understanding. Obedient children learn from parents who do not quarrel. Good neighbors are the fifth happiness. The sixth is having a milking animal and a kitchen garden. Āyurveda teaches that every plant has value, as shown in the story of Charaka. Discipline is essential: for medicine like chyavanprāś, follow strict dietary rules. Yoga begins with discipline; Āyurveda medicine begins with discipline. The cause of disease is eating constantly, which disrupts the digestive fire, Jāṭharāgni. Seek advice only from a trained Āyurvedic doctor who understands pulse diagnosis. These sciences make us healthy, grant long life, and aid spiritual achievement. The soul departs with speed, guided only by karma and spirituality. "The first happiness is a healthy body." "Yoga and Āyurveda will make us very healthy, happy, and give us a long life and spiritual achievement." Filming location: Rijeka, Croatia

The great fortune is to be in satsaṅg, not entangled in the distractions of the age. This gathering provides rich spiritual food, not the mental fast food many consume. To digest this requires strong inner fire and practice. Simply being in this atmosphere purifies energy and grants strength. The most vital part is the personal connection—greeting the teacher and receiving prasāda. This act releases karma and provides sustenance felt long after. Prasāda is the holy essence capable of transforming a life, as is true darśana. "Prasāda is the essence." "That Prasāda is completely able to change our life if we know what Prasāda is."

The auspicious invocation calls upon the remover of obstacles to begin any work. In this tradition, Gaṇeśa is the Guru. This bhajan is a request from the holy Gurujī for Gaṇeśa to remove obstacles in writing bhajan books. Gaṇeśa, the elephant-headed deity, symbolizes wisdom embodied. He resides in the Mūlādhāra Cakra, subduing past karmic influences to allow a fresh start. The bhajan uses many names for Gaṇeśa, such as Gajānanda and Gaṇarāja, praising him as the lord of Śiva's attendants. The ultimate intent is a camouflaged invocation to Mahāprabhujī. The final line reveals this, requesting the service of his lotus feet, which translates to serving all beings, exemplified by adopting a vegetarian diet. "Gajānanda Ānanda Mūrti, Kṛpākaro Mahārāj." "Viśva Dīpa Hari āpaho dijo caraṇakī sev." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The human being contains a fundamental purity. We are diverse and cannot all become one, yet we are ourselves. Many people eat meat and are going down, but here we are pure. Open your eyes in the morning and see only "I am human." The earth is pure, and pure water comes from above. Within the vast ocean of existence, something very pure comes from within us, like a crystal. In sleep, we travel far from ourselves, yet return quickly. This inner experience is the purity we call a yogī. Our eyes are very powerful; we must be clear and controlled with them. Those who eat purely are very good. You do not need to know my name; it is inside. We have done work to maintain purity so others may not spoil it. "Open your eyes in the morning, so when we are just open. And so, when we open our eyes, then we see only, 'I am human.'" "And so, whatever it is with us, it is your beautiful best, all that is the purity. So that is what we call a yogī."

The soul's path is confused by ancestral imbalance. Disrupted family lines create inner conflict, preventing the soul's straight journey. This confusion mirrors nature: water reclaims its path, birds follow ancestral routes, and grafted plants bear fruit but no fertile seed. Human life mirrors this; impure unions produce confusion, not lasting growth. One must purify karma and understand natural balance. Life ascends to a peak at fifty years, then descends. All are cells of God, rays of one sun. The divine dwells equally within every entity. Inner male and female energies must balance through specific prāṇāyāma techniques, leading to union. True wisdom is found within, not by seeking outside. "From our heart and soul, that soul follows its path." "Karma is only for humans, not for animals." Filming location: Slovakia

We are all like a drop of water seeking to merge with the ocean. Life is a process of growth in time, from childhood onward, yet our individual journeys are temporary. We desire to achieve the goal of oneness with the cosmic reality, to end the cycle of return. This longing is like a single drop wishing to join the vast ocean; upon merging, the separate self is gone. Our familial and social attachments are not permanent, as each soul must ultimately walk its own path toward that dissolution into the One, the ātmā. "One drop is just in the palm of our heart, and the ocean is so big. And now, this drop wants to say, 'I want to go to my water, my ocean.'" "Your father and your mother and your brother and your friends... are not forever. Again, we have to walk on our path." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Vegetarian athletes discuss overcoming cultural skepticism to achieve high performance through plant-based diets. Initial motivations differ, with one citing yoga's ethical principle of non-violence and the other seeking a competitive edge in sports. Both faced doubt, especially regarding protein for muscle development or endurance. They explain that plant foods provide all necessary nutrients, but require specific knowledge to combine ingredients like legumes and grains for complete proteins. The environment presents a mental barrier, with a prevailing belief that meat is essential for strength, which they counter with personal results. Diet is highly tailored to their sports: bodybuilding focuses on muscle mass, while endurance sports like triathlon prioritize efficient energy use and recovery. They emphasize mindful eating, noting how food affects acidity, energy, and digestion during training. Discipline and listening to the body are crucial, as is the mindset that transforms training into a joyful, inspired practice beyond mere competition. "Vegetarian nutrition was simply a continuation. That ethical aspect of vegetarianism, non-violence, developed later." "People have a kind of sneer, like, 'No, well, look, after all, if you are vegetarian, then you won’t be able to reach that level.'" Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

Chakras are energy centers where consciousness resides, defining character and problems. Your destiny (prārabdha) is created by past karma before your body forms. You control your present karma through action, speech, thought, and influence, but once acted upon, deeds become destiny governing future life and all current problems. The Mūlādhāra Chakra is the root foundation of consciousness based on that karma. It is the earth element, colored red for energy and Mother Consciousness. Its awakening brings safety, wisdom, and pleasurable energy, not physical sensations. The chakra's symbols include a four-petaled lotus representing the four ways life enters the world, an elephant symbolizing wisdom and prosperity, an inverted triangle for energy flow, and a coiled snake representing past, present, and future karmas—the dormant Kuṇḍalinī Śakti. Śiva (consciousness) and Śakti (nature) seek union here. Exercises like Bhujaṅgāsana and Śalabhāsana activate this chakra, strengthening the back and influencing the root center for physical and mental balance. "As long as you are not doing anything, it is still under your control." "The awakening of the Kuṇḍalinī means wisdom. You become very wise, you become self-confident."
