The Glory of Rāma and the Eternal Dharma
0:45 - 1:38 (53 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on the glory of Lord Rāma, the origin of the Rāmāyaṇa, and the nature of Sanātana Dharma. "Vālmīki began to argue with a saint... The saint then asked, 'So what will you do?' He said, 'Come, and I will give you a mantra.'" "Sanātan means one all and all in one. Love for all, also the trees, animals, air, water, humans, all in harmony, in peace, and in oneness." A spiritual teacher narrates the story of the sage Vālmīki’s transformation through chanting the name of Rāma, leading to his samādhi and the divine revelation of the epic Rāmāyaṇa. The talk expands to discuss the timeless wisdom of the Vedas, critiques a fragmented modern worldview, and emphasizes the essential oneness underlying all religions, which is obscured by human ego. The discourse concludes with festive greetings for Dīpāvalī. Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The Inner Conflict of Śiva
5:15 - 6:10 (55 min)
Recorded on
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.

A spiritual discourse and bhajan explanation exploring the four yogas and the purpose of the human journey. "Our bhajans, especially this one, contain all four parts of Yoga: Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Jñāna Yoga, and Rāja Yoga." "Without bhakti yoga, you can't go. Jñāna yoga is very good, but it is just dry... Bhakti is, we are full of the juice, sweet, everything." He describes the soul's cyclical journey and emphasizes Bhakti Yoga as the essential, living path to Brahmaloka, using stories, poems, and analogies—like the self-deluding nature of dry Jñāna and the protective flame of devotion—to illustrate key spiritual truths.
