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 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."

Morning program with Vishwaguruji from Wellington Ashram, New Zealand. Life is the most beautiful, but humans always have problems like greediness and killing other creatures. The day when we go we will not bring anything with us. Story of the proud king who thought that he is the best. The ego pulls down completely. We need some things for our life, other things we should give. Be faithful to yourself.

The resonance of Aum is the primordial technique to connect awareness with Cosmic Consciousness. This sound pervades the universe and awakens Śiva. A protocol exists for divine invocation, beginning with Gaṇeśa to remove obstacles, ensuring the success of subsequent worship. The essence of Śivarātri is the transition from darkness to light, facilitated by this universal resonance. Creation emerges from the interplay of space and consciousness, united by energy whose movement is the sound Aum. This resonance triggers illumination, manifesting as Śiva, the self-born source. The practice is a science of union, directing inner awareness toward that infinite light within. "Scientists at NASA researched the sound in the universe and within the sun itself. I have a CD of this sound, and it is very clearly Oṁ." "Between these two, space and consciousness, where the energy begins, there is a kind of movement, and that is called resonance. That resonance is called nāda. That is Nāda Yoga, sound. And that nāda is a universal nāda which is called Aum." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

A Śiva Pūjā is performed through invocation, abhiṣeka, and homa. The ritual begins with sacred mantras and offerings to Lord Śiva. Water, sandalwood, and sacred ash are offered with reverence. The five nectars and various substances like rice, betel leaf, and flowers are presented. A fire ceremony is conducted, where offerings are made with the utterance of svāhā. This act symbolizes the sacrifice of negativity and ego into the purifying flames. The recitation of the thousand names of Śiva follows, a profound meditation for this age. The ritual concludes with a peace prayer, affirming the eternal, complete nature of the divine. "Whatever negativity, ego, jealousy, or hatred is with us, we are sacrificing." "Pūrṇamadaḥ, Pūrṇamidaṁ, Pūrṇāt Pūrṇamudacyate." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Śivarātri is a night when Lord Śiva is approachable for prayers and blessings. This gathering celebrates that divine proximity. Śiva is the unborn, ultimate truth and universal consciousness from which all creation arises. He is the source of sound and light, represented by Oṁ. The Śiva Liṅga symbolizes the round, entire universe. The individual soul, Jīva, is a drop that ultimately merges into the ocean of Śiva. Spiritual practice requires single-pointed focus; attempting many paths leads nowhere. Discipline in fasting and practice is essential, with no compromise. While uncertainty and pain in life are inevitable, worrying and suffering are optional. Do not dwell on the past or fear the future; work with confidence in the present. "Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional. Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional." "If you hold to one thing, you will master everything. If you try to do a little here and a little there, you will lose everything." Filming locations: Vienna, Austria.

A spiritual writer perceives past, present, and future through meditation, crafting songs and poems that are dialogues with the self. Ordinary thought can either fuel problems or solve them. We must analyze our relationship with inner noise, distinguishing between necessary and nonsensical thoughts. Writing stems from concrete, lived experience—often the author's own psychic or situational struggles—transformed into universal insight. True creative work, done with love, becomes a lasting, divine offering. We must awaken from ignorance, for human life is a fleeting chance for spiritual progress. A true master is the awakened one who guides others with fresh, flowing wisdom. Ultimately, nothing we collect is truly ours; only what we give has lasting value. "One line is a question, and the second part is the answer. First, the spiritual seeker is asking, warning oneself." "Chet means awake, be alert, be conscious. Don't run here and there in the world. This will not help you. You have to wake up and go inside." Filming location: London, UK

Yoga in daily life is the ever-shining sun, present everywhere. The program begins with purifying the body's impurities. Habit becomes one's second nature. A story illustrates this: a man jumps into a river to retrieve a coat, which is actually a bear. The bear catches him. The man wishes to leave the coat, but the coat does not leave him. This is the condition of dependency. People find time for negative habits but claim to have no time for meditation or good deeds. The mind is a reflection, like a face in a mirror; one cleans the mirror, but the spot is on the face. The mind must be corrected through techniques, good society, and meditation. The five sheaths of the being are the body of nourishment, energy, mind, intellect, and bliss. Liberation comes from mastering the mind, attachment, hope, and thirst. Give charity without expectation of return. This is the science of yoga for body, mind, and soul. "Habit is the second nature of the human." "Man marā na mamatā marī—your desires, what you want to have." Filming location: Alexandria, USA

The divine descends into suffering to bear the pain of the world. In the difficult age of Kali, all beings endure hardship. Even divine incarnations like Kṛṣṇa and Jesus underwent profound suffering, demonstrating this universal condition. An old man's story illustrates how worldly success fades into loneliness and pain, revealing suffering's inevitability. Our physical bodies and possessions are temporary, but the inner soul remains. All beings, including sages and gods, experience suffering as they absorb the collective anguish. This shared experience ultimately dissolves into the divine. "All ṛṣis, sādhus, gurus, and God—all were suffering. They are taking from others our heart, our pain." "Better is that we quickly die than hurry home. That is why maybe it is good."

God is one, appearing in form or formlessness. Different names and forms point to the same supreme reality. The formless Parabrahma, Allah, or Holy Father is the ultimate. Yet, for those in a body, worship of a form is a valid path to that formless truth. Scriptures describe divine functions: Brahmā creates, Viṣṇu preserves, and Śiva dissolves, yet all are aspects of the one. The Guru is the living conduit to this truth, surpassing even these divine aspects. True guidance comes only through an authentic Guru rooted in a genuine lineage. Meditation and worship must be focused on that Guru. Without such a master, one remains lost, following empty signs and gaining no real liberation. "God is only one. There is no other god; there is only one God." "Gurur Brahmā, Gurur Viṣṇu, Gurur Devo Maheśvara... Guru Sākṣāt Parabrahma." Filming location: Sydney, Australia

Mahāśivarātri is a worship of Lord Śiva, celebrating consciousness, liberation, and the universal principle. The Śivaliṅga is the central focus of worship, representing the entire universe. Śiva is the uncreated, endless consciousness that manifested itself. Śiva and Śakti are not genders but represent consciousness and universal energy. The divine resonance, Nāda, is the form of Supreme Brahman, from which Śiva manifests. He is the protector, as shown by drinking the poison to save the earth. The temple is within; self-realization comes from being present with a mind at zero. All religions are contained within the eternal truth. The duty is to protect the environment, as every atom is Śiva. Chanting the Mahā-Mṛtyuñjaya Mantra offers protection. The individual soul merges with the universal soul. "Śiva means consciousness. Śiva means liberation. Śiva means the truth." "Within you is the ocean of bliss, and within you is the fountain of joy. Within you is the immortal one." Filming locations: Prague, Czech Republic.

The grace of Mahāśivarātri is profound. We are blessed on this holy night. Lord Śiva declared this night as his worship for all ages. You have preserved Sanātana Dharma across generations; do not abandon this eternal path. It is the main highway, while other paths are like small sticks. Many saints and avatars have upheld this dharma. A temple for Lord Shiva is established here; offer simple water, fruits, or flowers. This place in Fiji is considered very divine, where many find peace and shed their stress through spiritual practice. Lord Śiva is Bholenāth, the innocent and compassionate one. His grace is illustrated through stories. A thief, climbing a Śivaliṅga with muddy feet to steal, was instead blessed for his inadvertent offering. A poor hunter, whose water and Bilva leaves accidentally worshiped a liṅga, was shown mercy. He spared the honest deer that returned to him, and Śiva subsequently appeared, granting the hunter's family prosperity and liberating all. These acts define the great night. "Sanātana Dharma is the highway, the main road. Other paths are like small sticks." "You are such a great bhakta; you offer yourself to me. What can be a greater bhakta than you?"

The power of wish must be guided by discernment. Whatever you wish is possible, but you must know what you are wishing for. A wish is desire, encompassing all worldly and spiritual aims. Before expressing a wish, know its nature, for once fulfilled, you cannot bargain with the result. Within desire lies Icchā Śakti, the willpower to fulfill it. Yet, without clear understanding, this power can lead to harm. You must discern the fruits of your desire before you act. Therefore, develop viveka—discernment and common sense—before you wish. Without it, desire will bring suffering, like a monkey stealing a basket hoping for honey but finding a cobra. Do not strongly wish without knowing the reality. Good, spiritual wishes God will fulfill. Negative wishes will also be fulfilled, resulting in suffering. The ultimate truth is devotion; in this age, repeating the divine name is the support that allows one to cross the ocean of ignorance. Śakti is the one energy behind all movement and life, appearing in many forms but singular in essence. "Whatever you wish, everything is possible; nothing is impossible." "Before you do some action, you should know the form of the action." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

This sacred island is the ancient abode of Bhagavān Śiva, his consort Pārvatī, and Nandī. A mountain here holds the complete form of the Divine Mother, visible from the airport. At its peak is a pure lake, like Mānasarovara, from which flows water bottled and sold globally as Fiji Water. Upon a large rock near this lake is the Swayambhū footprint of Lord Sadāśiva. On another part of the island, in Lambasa, a sacred black stone representing a śāstra nāga grew despite attempts to contain it, leading to the construction of the Nāg Mandir. This land is uniquely blessed, free from dangerous animals and abundant with food and water year-round, a protection linked to its sacred geography. "At the peak of that mountain, there is a beautiful lake, akin to Mānasarovara near Kailāśa mountain. The water of that lake is utterly pure, without pollution." "Fiji is the only country in the world without any dangerous animals, reptiles, or spiders. You can sleep anywhere outside without worry." Filming location: Fiji Islands

Śiva is the light of liberation, the divine harmony of truth and beauty. He acts when human effort is exhausted, rescuing devotees. This harmony is balance, devoid of conflict and selfishness. Śiva, as Mahādeva, is the greatest power. The individual soul (Jīvātmā) is connected to the Ātmā, which is one with the supreme soul (Paramātmā). Realizing this unity makes one a Mahātmā, and at the highest consciousness, a Mahādeva. The true Guru is that realized Ātmā, not the physical body, which is merely a container for that priceless diamond. Modern pursuit of money and technology represents a decline in consciousness. Scientific research cannot apprehend the soul; divine creation is perfect and beyond human replication. Manipulating nature, such as with sterile seeds or artificial conception, destroys natural harmony and leads to societal discord. True knowledge comes from spiritual practice, not instruments. One must live in harmony with nature, renounce selfish desires, and purify the mind to realize the inner Ātmā, which is the Paramātmā present in all. "Śiva means light. Śiva means liberation: Satyam, Śiva, Sundaram." "Where there is harmony, there is no fight, no jealousy, and no selfish use of Śiva’s power. Then the light comes." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The Satguru's name is the boat to cross the ocean of worldly existence. Satsang is the vehicle to heaven, like a boat crossing the ocean. Those who board the boat of the Guru's name with faith and service will be carried to the far shore. The mind is inherently restless, greedy, and thieving; it steals away good thoughts. Do not follow its desires. To control it, seek shelter at the Guru's divine feet. Worry is a disease that eats away at one's roots like a termite. We often blame others and do not accept our own mistakes, which creates mental illness. Guilt and hidden faults create fear that manifests as disease in the body. Surrender is essential. True devotion is an unbreakable attachment and purity. Hold fast to it to attain the divine vision. "Satguru nām jahāj hai, chaḍe sū utre pār, jo śraddhā kar sev de." "Man ke lagām lagāo... To śaraṇa. Come, seek the shelter at the divine feet or divine presence of the Gurudev." Filming location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India

Śiva is the eternal source and protector beyond birth and form. He is Ādi, the beginningless source from which all emerges. Śiva manifested Brahmā and Viṣṇu, assigning them roles: Brahmā creates, Viṣṇu preserves, and Śiva ultimately protects and dissolves. He maintains balance between all forces. The holy night of Mahāśivarātri commemorates his grace. A desperate hunter, failing to find food, climbed a Bīlva tree. Water from his vessel and leaves he dropped fell onto a Śiva Liṅga below, unknowingly performing worship. Throughout the night, he was moved to compassion and spared the lives of pleading deer. By dawn, Śiva, pleased with this inadvertent devotion, blessed the hunter and his family with sustenance, forbidding further killing. Śiva is Bholenāth, the easily pleased lord who grants boons to simple, sincere hearts, turning even accidental or flawed actions into devotion. "Śiva is not born; he has no mother, no son, and no father. He is the father; it is he who manifests himself." "So when man was there and Śiva came and Śiva said, 'I will protect these deer and I protect your families.'" Filming location: Sydney, Australia

Pranayama practice.

The path of Saṅkalpa requires pure intention, for a wish born from harming others fails and accrues karma, demanding return. Kalpa signifies vast cycles of time within which the soul wanders, though in truth, time is a product of movement within consciousness. Realization is to unite with the cosmic self, beyond time and space. The vessel of the heart determines what one can receive; doubt yields little, while purity receives much. Śiva is the most merciful, forgiving all mistakes of devotees who approach with sincere prayer, as shown to the hunter who showed compassion. The sacred mantra is the key offering. "Before we take a firm determination, one should think through whether one is hurting someone else. Otherwise, your Saṅkalpa will not be successful." "I will be the most gracious and merciful to all my devotees. It doesn't matter what mistake they have done. I will forgive everything." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

The Kali Yuga presents a severe trial, demanding unity. A time of great calamity approaches, with disasters, disease, and agricultural ruin. Yet, a path exists for those with correct knowledge to merge with the cosmic Śiva. Śiva's nature is universally compassionate, embracing all people and religions without exclusion, unlike other forces that may discriminate. Śiva's blessing is the paramount solution. The precious human birth is easily squandered without understanding. Time, once lost, never returns. Therefore, one must remember Śiva constantly through repetition of His names, cultivating real devotion to the inner Gurudeva, who appears in many forms beyond external designations. This devotion is the essential grace. "Śiva said, 'All of you are very good. Let be.'" "Human life in this world is very, very precious. If you do not understand and you lose it, then you have no knowledge." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Haṭha Yoga is the essential, foundational path encompassing all others. You cannot proceed without Haṭha Yoga. Bhakti Yoga is also Haṭha Yoga inside, for you must maintain unwavering devotion despite emotional waves. Most devotion is selfish and unstable, rising and falling with desires. True devotion must grow constantly, like an airplane ascending smoothly from the runway. It is a test of purity and constancy. The story of the crow and swan illustrates this: the noisy, changeable crow represents fickle devotion, while the silent, soaring swan represents steady ascent. Real devotion requires a pure heart and readiness to surrender completely. The tale of the young girl Karmabai demonstrates this forceful love: she insisted the deity eat her offering, and through her unwavering conviction, it did. Karma Yoga is similarly challenging. Thus, all paths are included within Haṭha Yoga. "Bhakti yoga cannot be successful without haṭha yoga. And then it must be what we call the real devotion." "God needs that kind of love... it is the love that is the oneness." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The call is for purity in the Kali Yuga. This age is powerful and far-reaching, observed in trends like the prevalence of dark colors. Beautiful colors and purity are presented within the teachings and bhajans. One must not identify with blackness but with purity. The term pū describes a seeker in a dry state, refusing impure water and awaiting a single pure drop from above. We must proceed with this aspiration. In our practice, be very pure and clean. Declare "I am," for that sound is purity itself. True peace is found by looking to God within; it is here. This realization comes not in months but at life's end. "Please do not be black, please do not be black." "I am, I am... My sound, 'I am,' is pure—it is purity itself." Filming location: Vienna, Austria
