Guru Lilā, addressing the community, explains the four aspects of kripa: Deva Kripa (grace of the gods), Śāstra Kripa (grace of the scriptures), Guru Kripa (the Guru's grace), and Kuṭkī Kripa (self-grace).

He then narrates the story of Eklavya, who, though rejected by the teacher Dronacharya, honored him as his guru from afar and offered his thumb as guru dakshina, illustrating that true teaching and devotion transcend physical presence and formal instruction. The master's love, like sunlight, shines on all disciples equally without favoritism. Filming location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India

The core teaching is a call to protect all life—categorized as Jalchara, Thalchara, and Nabhachara (water, land, and sky beings)—by sharing food and not harming animals.

A spiritual discourse reflecting on the Kumbh Mela and warning against false spiritual powers. "If you bathe during that constellation, the nectar still has an effect on you—meaning it cleans your karmas and blesses you with immortality." "There is no austerity more than truth. To follow the truth is the biggest austerity, tapasyā—and no greater sin than to lie." The lecturer begins by describing his profound experience at the Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, taking a sacred bath for all devotees. He then shifts to a cautionary theme, recounting stories of Holy Guruji exposing fraudulent fortune tellers and so-called healers. He warns devotees against those who claim siddhis (powers) like seeing auras or predicting futures, arguing these are obstacles to true spiritual progress. He advises focusing on genuine devotion and practice, sharing a personal story where Mahaprabhuji counseled him to be like a steadfast banyan tree, free from expectation.

Those who are doing, will get the karma. The story of a man who wants to make problems for someone. Children have truth in their heart. We have to give a good message to the world.

"Today, on the beautiful occasion of Gurudeva’s birthday... we might physically not be able to be with Gurudeva... but mentally we all can, with our heart, with our devotion, with our full being." "As a guru, Gurudev cannot fix himself. That is going against the laws. Gurudev can fix all of us, heal all of us. But our prayers and our love are the only things that can give him the strength." A speaker guides viewers through a detailed mental worship (Mānasik Pūjā) for Gurudeva's birthday. Participants are led to visualize the guru, perform paduka puja, light a lamp, offer āratī, flowers, and prostrations, and finally offer food.

A spiritual discourse on the nature of divine beings, the soul, and the law of karma. "Devas means goddesses. Here, goddess means those Devas who performed good karma, meditation, pūjā, ceremonies, and helped all other creatures." "Karma hi deva hai. So, either it liberates you or it doesn't liberate you. It is punishing you or liberating you, it is your karma." The lecturer explains the Vedic concepts of Devas (celestial beings) and the soul, asserting the soul's genderless nature and criticizing beliefs that deny women a soul. He describes karma as a governing divine principle, using analogies like water and gold to illustrate the singular divine presence in all forms.

The speaker, likely a swami, delivers a satsang emphasizing that all spiritual progress and worldly harmony depend solely on the Guru's grace. He expands the concept of Guru to include parents and the supportive community of village life, using anecdotes about street dogs and a detailed parable about a devoted disciple, his wife, and a test of sacrifice to illustrate the depth of true devotion and the singular source of blessing.
