What Incarnation means
0:45 - 1:39 (54 min)

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. Only that one can be called an incarnation, and that one is called Svayambhū."
"We all are one. It doesn't matter, the human or reptilian or the birds or any. There is a soul, jīva. Life, they are all one."
The lecturer speaks at the Yogandī Life center in Vienna on the anniversary of Gurudev Swami Madhavānandajī. He contemplates the concept of incarnation, explaining Śiva as the unmanifest Svayambhū who willed multiplicity into being through the five elements. 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.

Vishuddi Chakra and thyroid gland
1:40 - 1:58 (18 min)

A spiritual discourse on the viśuddhi chakra and the symbolism of swallowed poison.
"Wish means poison. Wish means poison."
"Śiva did not swallow it down; he held this poison in his throat here, and he digested it there... Similarly, we say this: in our throat, there is a poison."
The teacher narrates the myth of Śiva drinking the ocean's poison to become Nīlakaṇṭha, using it as a metaphor for the emotional poison swallowed in daily life, such as unexpressed anger or harsh words. This is linked to the viśuddhi (throat) chakra, its purification, and its symbols—the elephant of strength and Brahmā with the Vedas. The talk connects this to broader concepts of the chakra system, kuṇḍalinī, and the necessity of consistent practice over contradictory advice.

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Siva's divine shakti always protect us with Maha mritju jaya mantra. If you have problems sing Prabu Deep Niranjan saba dukkha banyan mantra. Our dress should be proper and clean to express our respect for others not for our ego. Our culture is according to our climate. The best ointment to our eyes is the name of Gurudev. According to Mangilalji humans will be the cause of Mahapralaya but spiritual people will go to Brahmaloka before it. We destroy our earth by cutting many trees and digging out mines. We make very much pollution to the environment and slaughtering many animals to eat. Not scientists but normal people can save the world. Where there is a will there is the way.
