Our lineage is rooted in Śiva, connecting us through stories that convey spiritual truths. Every saint has a lineage. Our seat traces back to the Himalayas and the kingdom of Alak Purī. A queen vowed her children would attain liberation. She taught her last son, Alarka, both kingship and spiritual knowledge. Before departing for the forest, she gave him a ring inscribed with the message: "This will not remain." This teaches that all conditions, joy or sorrow, are transient. Another story tells of the poet Kālidāsa. A shepherd, through a clever ruse, married a learned princess. Her kick awakened his latent wisdom. He became a great scholar, devoted to the Divine Mother Kālī, and wrote profound works. His poem Meghadūta involves a messenger using clouds to send words to his wife. Kubera, the treasurer, dwelled in Alakpurī. A servant, cursed to separation, sent messages via clouds. Our paramparā flows from these Himalayan roots: Alakpurījī, Devpurījī, Mahāprabhujī, and forward. We are united in this divinity. "This will not remain." "Without Brahma and Māyā, nothing can happen." Filming location: London, UK

Sound and its resonance, nāda, are a profound spiritual path. Sound and color generate immense energy affecting the body. Rāga means resonance, but also implies attachment and duality. This sound is Nāda Yoga. One must understand it; otherwise, it is merely noise. An instrument is holy and must be treated with great respect, like a delicate child. A group of musicians performed complex rāgas in a village, but all the farmers left, unable to understand. Only an old grandmother remained, crying. They thought she appreciated their music, but she cried because she believed they would die from a disease that killed her goats. Understanding requires an awakened heart. That endless, anāhat resonance alone can elevate consciousness. Mastering an instrument takes years of dedicated practice; the instrument becomes your guide. One must pray to Sarasvatī, the goddess of knowledge. Your own body is the primary instrument; care for your voice and vocal cords. True understanding is rare. "Who does not understand, then it’s okay—it is some kind of noise. But who can understand? And nāda—only when your heart awakens." "Your instrument is your guide, not you being a guide of the instrument. So, learn; otherwise, don’t humiliate the instrument." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Chakras are centers within us, akin to tiny points where everything exists. We call them lotuses, the king of flowers, which grow in muddy water and open at dawn during Brahma Muhurta. This pre-sunrise hour is pure, ideal for spiritual practice and study, as consciousness is gentle and unclouded by the day's dust. Each chakra is a lotus within the body, its petals unfolding light and energy to bring consciousness into your being. With age, like a lotus that cannot fully close, we may lose strength. Yoga's practices—postures, breath, and meditation—help restore vitality. Modern life, with chemical food and manipulated seeds, diminishes our natural energy and health. Chakras exist throughout the body, from feet to head, depicted with lotus petals. Their purpose is purification, rising above past karma like a lotus untouched by dirty water. Humans possess these centers for awakening consciousness to the cosmic, unlike animals. We are born not for hatred but to merge with the divine. Our soul, carrying its karma, is like water that evaporates and rains, eventually returning to the ocean of cosmic self. Good and bad karma must be balanced and left behind through good works and the burdens taken by others. Each chakra holds wisdom and symbols, like the elephant Ganesha, representing essential elements for health. Awakening comes through dedicated practice and meditation, which allows consciousness to expand and contract, moving toward liberation. "Within that point, everything exists; we are inside it." "Our soul, our life, our individuality, our destiny is with us." Filming location: Sunshine Coast, Australia

Vegetarian athletes discuss overcoming cultural skepticism to achieve high performance through plant-based diets. Initial motivations differ, with one citing yoga's ethical principle of non-violence and the other seeking a competitive edge in sports. Both faced doubt, especially regarding protein for muscle development or endurance. They explain that plant foods provide all necessary nutrients, but require specific knowledge to combine ingredients like legumes and grains for complete proteins. The environment presents a mental barrier, with a prevailing belief that meat is essential for strength, which they counter with personal results. Diet is highly tailored to their sports: bodybuilding focuses on muscle mass, while endurance sports like triathlon prioritize efficient energy use and recovery. They emphasize mindful eating, noting how food affects acidity, energy, and digestion during training. Discipline and listening to the body are crucial, as is the mindset that transforms training into a joyful, inspired practice beyond mere competition. "Vegetarian nutrition was simply a continuation. That ethical aspect of vegetarianism, non-violence, developed later." "People have a kind of sneer, like, 'No, well, look, after all, if you are vegetarian, then you won’t be able to reach that level.'" Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

Yoga is a mighty tree of oneness. Jñāna Yoga is its branches, the beauty of non-dual knowledge. Rāja Yoga is the trunk, the strength and discipline of mastery. Bhakti Yoga is the humble devotion of the branches, offering shelter and service. Karma Yoga is the roots, the selfless action that supports and nourishes the whole. The tree is the organization, the body, the spiritual company. Its greatest danger is internal decay. When its own members—like wood becoming an axe handle—join with a destructive force, they provide the strength for its fall. A Rāja Yogī must be eternally alert, observing with inner and outer eyes to maintain the health of the entire system. The king is the inner Self, governing the kingdom of the body and mind through discipline. All yogas are one. "Jñāna Yoga is the beauty of the branches. Rāja Yoga is the strength of the trunk of the tree." "Unfortunately, my own people joined with the axe as a handle, and they gave the strength to cut my soul."

Yoga, Peace, Unity and Healing, a yoga meditation event from Tilman Chapel of the Church Center for the UN. New York City, USA. The meditation segments are guided by Gayatri Naraine from Brahma Kumaris, Paramhans Swami Maheshwarananda from YIDL and Sri Swami Madhawananda Word Peace Council, Jude Currivan Ph.D, cosmologist and author. The music for the event will be performed by TWNY Music Guild. The endless space is the symbol of the mother. There are harmony, balance and unity between the consciousness and space and that is yoga. Creation started from this point by multiplying with the sound and light.

Yoga is the science of body, mind, consciousness, and soul. It is the ancient principle of balance between consciousness and space, which is the true yoga beyond mere exercise. Creation began from the resonance of Oṁ, manifesting light and Śiva, from whom all multiplicity arises. Life is sustained by the elemental fire of hunger, where life consumes life. Humans, distinct among 8.4 million creatures, possess intellect and are bound by karma; every action yields a reaction, perpetuating the cycle of birth and death. The purpose is to transcend this cycle through righteous action, harming none, thereby enlightening the soul to unite with the cosmic Self. For the body, practice gentle postures and breath daily to ensure health and awaken inner energy. Consistent practice is essential, as time can be allocated from one's day for this vital discipline. "Yoga is a science of body, mind, consciousness, and soul." "Every action has behind it a reaction, and when you take the reaction, it will be again an action." Filming location: Romania

The unity of Śiva and Śakti is the non-dual foundation of creation and spiritual practice. The entire world is one family under one divine source. Śiva is Svayaṃbhu, the self-manifested source from the five elements, and the author of yoga. Śakti is the universal power or energy present in all things, not a gender. Every person contains this essence. Two fundamental powers exist from creation: Daivī Śakti, the divine power of protection and love, and Āsurī Śakti, the power of ignorance, hate, and cruelty. Darkness is removed by igniting the inner light of knowledge. All dualities in the body, like the two hemispheres of the brain or the two eyes, reflect this united energy. Through consistent practice and willpower, one cultivates the divine power to heal and achieve enlightenment. "Śiva is the one who is called Svayaṃbhu. Svayaṃbhū means no one has created him—neither mother nor father." "Darkness will not go, but we just make a little light within, in no time, darkness is gone." Filming location: Slovakia

The culture of reverence sees divinity in all creation, making every day a sacred festival. Ancient India was a vast land with one original tradition. Its culture is rooted in nature, venerating the moon, sun, stars, animals, and elements like water and earth. The five elements—space, air, fire, water, earth—are the Pañcadevatā, five goddesses that sustain life. Disrespecting them brings illness. Our body and the world are made of these. We possess ten indriyas: five for knowledge and five for action. As we age, our capacity for action weakens, but our capacity for knowledge can grow. True wisdom balances intellectual knowledge with spiritual heart. A story illustrates this: a scientist mocks a meditator, questioning God's design of large fruit on small vines. A small berry falls on the scientist's head, and the yogi notes that if a large melon fell, it would be fatal, revealing a divine wisdom beyond dry intellect. Therefore, every day is a day of worship, a Guru Pūrṇimā, where we recognize the divine in everything. "Every day is a new day. Every day, someone has a birthday. And every day of the month has a particular event or festival." "Every day is a Guru Pūrṇimā... every day is the Dīvālī. Every seven days is a festival." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The spiritual lineage connects devotees to an ancient source of grace. A disciple met the master as a baby and received lifelong blessings, countering predictions of a short life and lack of education or wealth. The lineage extends back seven generations through the family. The source of the teachings is the immortal master Alakpuriji, who dwells in the Himalayas. Such perfected beings exist in subtle, causal bodies beyond the material world, serving as protectors. They can be perceived by pure hearts, as seen in lights over glaciers. The path requires sacrifice of attachment to enter the divine kingdom, as demonstrated by Yudhiṣṭhira's loyalty. The goal is liberation through this spotless, indescribable grace. "Tell me when you’re ready to leave this earth to come, I’ll call you." "Enter the kingdom of the Lord through the gate of sacrifice." Filming location: USA

The path requires dissolving ego through genuine service to attain self-knowledge. Ego is the primary obstacle for any seeker. Without renouncing pride and anger, spiritual titles are meaningless. A story illustrates this: a learned scholar visited a sage, boasting of his knowledge of all yogas. The sage asked if he knew the yoga of service, such as cleaning a sick person's pot. The scholar had not. True service is the practical yoga that erodes ego. Another tale tells of a royal disciple whose guru dressed him finely daily, causing jealousy among other disciples. When the group encountered a filthy ditch, only this disciple lay down as a bridge for his guru to cross. The guru revealed the lesson: the finely dressed disciple did not hesitate to serve, while others worried only for their own robes. The guru's command is the sole means to liberation. "Swamiji, you gave me sannyās. You must respect my orange dress." "Yes, I respect the orange dress, not your ego." "Gurudev, I will be thine. Devotees will come and devotees will go, but I will be thine." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Haṭha Yoga is the essential, foundational path encompassing all others. You cannot proceed without Haṭha Yoga. Bhakti Yoga is also Haṭha Yoga inside, for you must maintain unwavering devotion despite emotional waves. Most devotion is selfish and unstable, rising and falling with desires. True devotion must grow constantly, like an airplane ascending smoothly from the runway. It is a test of purity and constancy. The story of the crow and swan illustrates this: the noisy, changeable crow represents fickle devotion, while the silent, soaring swan represents steady ascent. Real devotion requires a pure heart and readiness to surrender completely. The tale of the young girl Karmabai demonstrates this forceful love: she insisted the deity eat her offering, and through her unwavering conviction, it did. Karma Yoga is similarly challenging. Thus, all paths are included within Haṭha Yoga. "Bhakti yoga cannot be successful without haṭha yoga. And then it must be what we call the real devotion." "God needs that kind of love... it is the love that is the oneness." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Vancouver, Canada. Respect is important, it should not be lost. Holy Guruji said: one in all and all in one. Our souls are the same, the soul will not die.

The truth is unchanging reality, while the world is temporary illusion. From childhood, we inquire into our nature, yet remain in ignorance, claiming superiority over others. Only Brahman is real; this world is like a soap bubble. Our inner instrument, the antaḥkaraṇa, consists of mind, intellect, awareness, and ego. When purified, it leads to liberation. Every soul is pure but coated by karma and destiny. We must love all beings, for a tiny soul contains immense power. Social education requires understanding time and place, acting with positive intention. In the end, we face truth alone; our worldly companions and fears fall away. What is everlasting is real. "Brahma satyaṁ, jagan mithyā. Only Brahman is the truth. And this jagat is mithyā." "Every soul is coated by karma. The soul is pure, but coated by that destiny. And that destiny is what we are creating." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Wellness is the harmonious balance of body, mind, and soul. Vāstu Śāstra aligns our environment with cosmic energy for harmony. Our being is composed of five layers, or kośas: the physical body of nourishment, the energy body, the mental body, the intellectual body, and the bliss body. The mind is a reflection of immense speed and power that cannot be controlled or killed; desire persists from cradle to grave. Yoga is the scientific practice to awaken awareness and achieve this balance. It requires daily morning practice in a small space with fresh air. Sound and vibration are foundational; our body is created from cosmic resonance. Specific sounds like "A," "U," and "M" correspond to energy centers, or chakras, and can release tension, heal glands like the thyroid, and purify the nervous system. Chanting "OM" integrates the five bodies and clears stress by directing vibration to the brain. "Your mind cannot be killed because your desire is still there." "Yoga is a science of body, mind, and soul." Filming location: New York, USA

The true Guru is the principle of knowledge that dispels ignorance. The name Sanjeevani signifies a prayer for success. We begin by invoking Śrī Gaṇeśa, the remover of obstacles and protector. The Guru is defined by the mantra: Guru is Brahmā the creator, Viṣṇu the protector, and Śiva the liberator. "Gu" means darkness, "ru" means light; the Guru leads from darkness to light. This is not a physical form but the capacity for mastery, like a pilot or surgeon whose knowledge transforms their function. One must pray for the divine to speak through them as an instrument. The Guru creates knowledge within, protects from negativity, and liberates. Follow the Guru's instructions as a student pilot follows a co-pilot. Liberation ends the cycle of birth and death, determined by karma. The soul's destination is shaped by actions. The Guru is the embodiment of knowledge alone, beyond duality, like the sky. All beings seek the same bliss. The true Self within is the Guru; one must awaken to this knowledge. "Guru Brahma, Guru Viṣṇu, Gurudevo Maheśvara, Guru Sākṣāt Parabrahma, Tasmai Śrī Gurave Namaḥ." "Brahmānandaṁ parama-sukhadam kevalaṁ jñāna-mūrtim, Dvandvātītaṁ gagana-sadṛśyaṁ tattvamasyādi-lakṣyam." Filming location: Alexandria, USA

The divine is perceived as both formless and with form. The formless God, Nirākāra, is like the horizon or sky—everywhere yet unreachable. The personal God, Sākāra, has a form we can relate to, speak with, and worship. Scripture states both are valid, but for humanity, worship with form is easier as it allows for relationship and dialogue. Our human nature encompasses both aspects. We are advised to use our divine potential through proper practice, as our latent powers can lead us toward divinity or negativity. How we speak and act directly impacts our spiritual and physical well-being, as our energy flows through subtle centers. We must choose a path that awakens our higher consciousness. "both are good, Nirākāra and Sākāra, the formless and with form. But he said, for you... it is easier to worship in form." "you have a chance of being a human... you are divine, you are godly, but all is dormant." Filming location: USA

Yoga is the ancient science of body, mind, and soul, originating from the very beginning of endless cosmic cycles. It stems from the interplay between universal consciousness and space. The creator, Śiva, manifested from the primordial sound, or resonance, which holds the universe together. This resonance is in every cell, creating harmony. Yoga is not merely physical exercise but the pursuit of health, balance, and oneness. The human body is a microcosm of five elements and contains energy centers, or chakras, along subtle nerves. Our awareness and practices like prāṇāyāma, postures, and chanting purify these energies, address ailments from stored emotions, and align us with the cosmic dance of creation and dissolution, leading toward liberation. "Yoga is not just that physical exercise. We call it yoga because it must bring good health, balance, harmony, and oneness of body, mind, and soul." "From the end of the spinal column is the seat of Śiva and Gaṇeśa. Gaṇeśa is in the Mūlādhāra Cakra. Mūla means roots." Filming location: USA
