The source of our knowledge is Gurudev
0:55 - 1:55 (60 min)

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. We can't step twice into the same river because the water continues flowing. The source of the water is not the water well, it is coming from the ocean. Similarly, the source of our knowledge is Gurudev. Brahmanandji was very learned and was thinking that he is the best Guru. But, in the presence of Gurudev, the truth becomes clear. There is immense energy, power, and ability residing in the human body.
Education for Flexible Identities
2:00 - 2:15 (15 min)

A conference presentation on education, identity, and spiritual philosophy.
"If you are not able to recognize the guru in yourself, how can you recognize your guru in another person?"
"We have to introduce a new... concept: that the other person is not an obstacle but a necessity for me to live my freedom."
The speaker addresses the conference, exploring the themes of self-education and flexible identity. He argues that one must integrate the roles of teacher and learner, awaken self-education within, and move beyond systems that create fixed identities. He advocates for a concept of freedom where others are necessary for one's own liberty, and concludes by referencing Masaru Emoto's water crystal experiments to illustrate the impact of thought and words.

2:20 - 3:12 (52 min)

An evening satsang on overcoming worldly stress and pursuing spiritual practice.
"We are thirsty horses in this world, from little children to older people. We are all in this stress."
"If you want to quench your thirst for spirituality, then you should do it... amidst the sound of the generator... amidst this noise of the world."
The lecturer addresses the pervasive stress of modern life, using the parable of a thirsty horse afraid of a water pump to illustrate the need to practice spirituality amidst worldly noise. He discusses the inescapable realities of time and karma, explaining concepts of sin (pāpa) and piety (puṇya) and the impurities of the inner instrument (Antaḥkaraṇa). He narrates the transformative stories of the sage Valmiki, a bandit who became a seer through chanting, and the poet Tulsidas, who was inspired by his wife to turn his love toward God. The talk emphasizes continuing spiritual practice (sādhanā) with humility despite life's obligations.

He explains the karmic cycles of Svarga and Naraka Loka, emphasizing non-violence and the guru's grace for liberation.

Vishuddi Chakra and thyroid gland
3:57 - 4:15 (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.

Build your intellect supportive
4:17 - 5:33 (76 min)

A spiritual discourse on maintaining clarity of purpose and guarding against negative influences.
"Your aim should be clear. Nothing can change me. The sun and moon can change their direction, but I will not change my direction."
"One stupid thought, one stupid person can destroy all your spiritual sādhanā, which you made years and years long with great confidence and with great love."
Swami Ji addresses the community, explaining how a lack of clear aim allows the intellect to be distracted and how negative gossip and jealousy can spoil one's spiritual practice, like lemon curdling milk. He narrates the story of Nārada creating doubt between Śiva and Pārvatī to illustrate the destructive power of negative talk, and emphasizes the need for humility, love, and avoiding harmful company to protect one's spiritual progress.

"Patañjali says, 'Atha yogānuśāsanam'—'if you want to achieve higher consciousness... I am ready to guide you with one condition: that is discipline.'"
The lecturer addresses an international meditation seminar, framing meditation within Patañjali's path of discipline. He identifies laziness and the six inner enemies—desire, anger, pride, greed, delusion, and ego—as primary obstacles. The discourse extensively links spiritual practice to a sattvic vegetarian diet centered on fruits, vegetables, nuts, and fresh milk, explaining how nourishment affects the mind. He outlines preparatory steps for meditation, including the use of a mantra and mālā, and demonstrates basic meditation postures and mudrās.

"When 'I' am important, life becomes hell. When 'you' are important, life is heaven."
Swami Gulabpuri (Gulābjī) addresses a seminar, examining how distractions like mobile phones and ego-driven expectations disrupt concentration and family harmony. He explains the need to live in the present, reduce the sense of "I," and perform selfless duty (dharma) as the foundation for spiritual progress.
