The Inner Conflict of Śiva
1:15 - 2:10 (55 min)

A narrative discourse exploring the inner conflict of Lord Śiva following Satī's test of Lord Rāma.
"Sometimes, to speak the truth is not easy. You hesitate to tell something; you do not want to lose face."
"Therefore, God, please, you can take everything away, or may I lose everything, but not one thing: my belief, my devotion to you."
The speaker recounts the mythological story where Satī, after testing Rāma by disguising herself as Sītā, lies to Śiva about her actions. Śiva, the knower of all, discovers the truth through his divine sight and is plunged into a profound inner conflict. He wrestles with a dilemma: to love Satī in her transformed state feels like a sin that would compromise his pure devotion (bhakti) to Rāma, yet he cannot reject his pure and faithful consort. The discourse uses this story to examine themes of truth, doubt, devotion, and the painful inner arguments that arise when faith is tested, concluding that only divine mercy can resolve such struggles.

Practising asanas from Rijeka
12:00 - 12:41 (41 min)

A guided yoga practice focusing on chakra awareness through specific postures and breath.
"Try to understand that the chakra and its location are like a reflection zone... It is the same with some āsanas; they influence and activate a point in our body connected to a cakra."
"If we are concentrated on one point, we will remain without movement. When our mind starts to go here and there, we lose concentration."
An instructor leads a session of āsanas (postures) and mudrās (seals) designed to bring awareness and sensation to the energy centers (chakras) from Mūlādhāra to Sahasrāra. The practice includes Maṇḍūkāsana for the root chakra, rolling movements for Maṇipūra and Viśuddhi, Ākarandanurāsana for Ājñā chakra focus, and Ekapāda Praṇāmāsana for concentration and Anāhata. The teaching connects physical sensation to energetic and mental states, referencing yoga texts and epic stories.

What are we thinking about our being?
23:55 - 1:11 (76 min)

An evening satsang on the soul's journey and the science of yoga.
"Our soul, our self—when this soul... becomes conscious of the highest Self—somehow, either we become bored there and desire to come to some good situation to enjoy this world. Thus, the soul descends and ascends, up and down."
"Through practicing yoga, the physical exercises and breathing are good for our health. The real practice of yoga is from that Master who will give the mantra and give you the techniques."
Swami Madhvanandji addresses the gathering, exploring the nature of the soul, its embodiment, and the path of yoga. He discusses the five elements, the relationship between the soul (the 'president') and the senses (the 'prime minister'), and the limitations of human science compared to divine creation. The talk emphasizes self-realization, the importance of spiritual practice, and seeing the divine light within.
