A spiritual discourse on the nature of the soul, creation, and Śiva. "There is one who is not born from a mother and not from a father.

Life, they are all one." The lecturer speaks at the Yogandī Life center in Vienna on the anniversary of Gurudev Swami Madhavānandajī.

Using the metaphor of the ocean and water cycle, he describes the singular soul within all life forms, discusses karma, and emphasizes the power of speech through a parable about the tongue and teeth.
