When you open your eyes, you get the light, you see the light." The speaker delivers a satsang on the festival of Diwali, explaining its origin in Lord Rama's return to Ayodhya and its deeper spiritual meaning as the inner light of Brahman.

A spiritual discourse on the value of singular focus and devotion to the guru. "If we have, and all of us have, a lot of pictures, we are something like these ten-year-old little guys who try to collect all Pokémons. Our mantra is 'Collect all.'" "Therefore, it is said: 'Dhyāna mūlaṁ guru mūrtiḥ, pūjā mūlaṁ guru padam, mantra mūlaṁ guru vākyaṁ, mokṣa mūlaṁ guru kṛpā.'" The speaker, Swami Vivek Puri, shares reflections from a satsang, emphasizing the spiritual power of focusing on one mantra and one form of the guru.
