Guru's Darshan is the most precious
0:00 - 0:16 (16 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse sharing a traditional parable about pilgrimage and divine grace. "All day I am being bathed in by so many thousands and thousands of people. All of their sins come into me... When we come to our guru and we do seva... by the soil which touched his feet—when it touches us, we become pure." "Gaṅgājī will give you much easier darśan. Whenever you are going on the way, always try to stay only at those houses where the householder has already had Gaṅgā snāna—a bath in the Gaṅgā." A Swami addresses a satsang, recounting the story of two Brahmins on a pilgrimage to bathe in the Ganga. They follow strict advice on their journey, only to discover the river goddesses themselves—blackened by the sins of devotees—performing seva at a nearby ashram to be purified by their guru's foot-dust. The narrative illustrates that true purification comes from selfless service and guru's grace, not merely ritual. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Understand your Atma
0:05 - 1:26 (81 min)
Recorded on
A spontaneous spiritual discourse on ancestry, karma, and yogic practice. "Similarly, also the plants and the trees. They are in seed, and branches will go like that with one little seed, but we cut the branch and we put some other plant on it. That is confused." "So, the human should understand animals, understand the trees, understand even the water. It has its path." The lecturer addresses a morning gathering, speaking extemporaneously on themes of ancestral lineage, spiritual confusion in the modern age, and the law of karma. He uses analogies from nature, such as migrating birds and grafted plants, to illustrate the importance of balance and following one's true path. The talk transitions into a detailed explanation of prāṇāyāma techniques—Nāḍī Vedanā, Nāḍī Śodhana, and Anulom Vilom—for purifying the body's energy channels and achieving inner union. He concludes by discussing the omnipresent divine consciousness, referencing a prayer to the Guru. Filming location: Slovakia
The Path of Conscious Living and Mercy
1:35 - 2:15 (40 min)
Recorded on
A satsang on spiritual development, karma, and conscious living. "True spirituality purifies negative karmas and frees the soul. We are covered by vibrations, karmic influences, and ignorance." "As humans among 8.4 million life forms, we possess intellect, vivekā, and karuṇā (mercy) in our hearts... Life is dear to everyone." Swami Gajānandji addresses a global gathering at the ashram, discussing the distinction between religion and soul purification. He explains how unconscious actions, particularly harming life for food, create karmic burdens that obscure the soul. Using a bhajan by Saint Sūradāsa and teachings from the Bhagavad Gītā, he emphasizes the need for conscious action, discriminative wisdom (vivekā), and extending mercy to all beings to achieve liberation.

The Journey Beyond the Three States
7:55 - 8:09 (14 min)
Recorded on
A philosophical exposition on the fourth state of consciousness, Turīya, based on Upanishadic teachings. "The one who experiences these three states is the Jīva, the individual soul." "Turīya is the witness of all three states. It is the silent, unchanging consciousness that illuminates the waking, dreaming, and sleeping experiences." The narration explains the three common states of consciousness—waking, dreaming, and deep sleep—and introduces Turīya as the transcendent witness behind them. It cites the Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad and uses the analogy of two birds from the Muṇḍaka Upaniṣad to distinguish the experiencing individual soul (Jīva) from the witnessing Self. The goal is presented as realizing one's identity as Turīya through hearing, reflection, and meditation, culminating in the recognition of the great declaration "Tat Tvam Asi" (That thou art).

A spiritual teacher delivers an evening program, explaining the Ādyā Śakti (Kuṇḍalinī) as the divine energy governing the universe and the individual. He details the eight main chakras, the three principal nāḍīs (Iḍā, Piṅgalā, Suṣumṇā), and the foundational practices for purification.

This is whatever we see now: we were cooking, we are eating, we are drinking, we are shopping—anything we are doing. This is from outside to inside." "What this sleep means is that we are 100% aware about our Self, and so it is very comfortable, relaxed, and peaceful. That is your life." Swami Madhvānandaji addresses the community, explaining the three common states of waking (Jagrat), dreaming (Svapna), and deep sleep (Suṣupta). He emphasizes the divine quality of sleep as a time to be with the inner Self (Ātmā) and introduces the higher state of Yoga Nidrā, described as a conscious sleep where yogis are awake to the Supreme. The talk concludes with a transition to the Sandhyā prayer, marking the junction of day and night. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A spiritual teacher delivers a satsang in Vienna, explaining the interplay between consciousness (Puruṣa) and nature (Prakṛti). He details the four human goals (Puruṣārthas)—Dharma, Artha, Kāma, Mokṣa—and the four corresponding life stages (Āśramas): Brahmacarya (student), Gṛhastha (householder), Vānaprastha (retirement), and Sannyāsa (renunciation).

A spiritual discourse and mantra teaching session on the power of language, respect, and energy. "Spirituality does not mean wholly very slow... But with this different energy inside, just try to be aware of this thing: in which way are we addressing other people?" "You get from an object only as much as you respect it... If your mālā has some value for you, you will keep it in a safe place... Because of that, you will, from your mālā, get energy when you need it." A speaker leads a satsang, emphasizing the profound impact of words, gestures, and intention. He discusses how language shapes reality, using examples from addressing others to serving food and respecting spiritual objects like a mala. The talk covers the importance of positive speech, respectful action, and the energy behind our deeds.

"We must not have a thousand, but even a hundred is enough, or one is enough. My Gurujī said, 'A hundred goats and one tiger is more than enough.'" The lecturer delivers an evening satsang, moving from observations on preparation and cultural greetings into profound spiritual parables. He shares stories including a Pope testing devotees' faith, a devoted brother walking on water, and the mythological tales of Śiva, Śakti, and the sage Śukadeva, all illustrating that heartfelt devotion surpasses mere intellectual knowledge.
