The human condition is defined by a unique and pervasive fear, stemming from our intellect and desires, which separates us from other creatures and creates our suffering.
We declare ourselves the best creatures, yet we are the most fearful. Animals live without our anxieties; they do not consult astrology or design their homes. We asked God why He made humans superior, and He replied He never did—He made humans as protectors, but we have become destroyers. Our limitless desires breed endless fear. A bird will sit on a tiger but flees from a human, sensing our negative energy. We even distrust each other, relying on documents over personal vows, as in modern marriages. This fear is a form of tapas, a burning austerity. The three fires of suffering are adhibhautika (from other beings), adhidaivika (from divine forces or past karma), and adhyātmika (from within oneself). Our sins—anger, greed, pride—fuel these fires. To end them, we must disconnect from worldly attachments and connect to the Supreme. Chanting the mantra cleanses these three tapas and sins, leading to permanent, unmovable happiness. We must practice non-violence, mercy, and introspection. Read sacred texts to awaken this understanding and transform life.

Pranayama and the five bodies
2:00 - 2:51 (51 min)
Health is founded on proper yoga practice, not mere postures. Yoga in Daily Life is a scientific system for physical, mental, social, and spiritual health. Many have been cured of disease through correct sādhanā. The most foolish approach is to begin with strenuous postures alone; health must be cultivated naturally. The body is sustained by five elements and composed of five sheaths. The first sheath is the physical body, nourished by food. The second is the energy body, sustained by fresh air and fresh, vital food. Dead, reheated food lacks prāṇa and creates illness. The third sheath is the mind, which cannot be killed because desire cannot be killed. Hope and longing are also immortal. Running after desires is like chasing a mirage; it destroys life. What is destined will come without frantic pursuit. Practice should be purposeful. Prāṇāyāma is more powerful than āsanas, but one must know which technique is for which benefit.
"The first happiness is a healthy body."
"Your mind will never die. Your desire will not die, and your mind also will not die."

Around the world - Surya Namaskar, Zagreb, CRO
3:00 - 3:36 (36 min)
Surya Namaskāra integrates posture, cakra concentration, and mantra for holistic purification. This classical yoga sequence is best performed at sunrise or sunset, honoring the sun as a life-giving deity. The practice involves precise physical movements, each linked to a specific cakra and breath. Quality is paramount: perfect the movement, maintain relaxation, focus on the cakra, and know the mantra. This complete structure yields the benefits. Daily practice makes one's being like the sun, purifying the atmosphere so negativity cannot take hold. Correct alignment prevents injury; the spine must remain straight during forward and backward bends. Concentration involves feeling each cakra's location and qualities. Integrating silent or spoken mantras with movement and breath deepens the effect, working on the body, cakras, and consciousness.
"Anything thrown toward the sun either gets burned or, if it is dust, merely falls into your own eyes."
"My photograph, my image, is the sun. Whenever you wish to see me, look at the sun."

Shiva Tattva
3:40 - 4:14 (34 min)
The endless cycle of creation and dissolution guides the soul toward Śiva. Creation, Sṛṣṭi, and dissolution, Vilaya, repeat across Yugas. God incarnates in each age through Yogamāyā. Viṣṇu appears with symbols of blessing and destruction. The cycle cleans the field of existence before Śiva, the Svayambhū, manifests again. Vast scriptural knowledge was largely destroyed, yet an ocean remains. Theoretical knowledge is limited; practice is essential. Countless Yugas have passed. The Jīvātmā, the individual soul present in all life, is Śiva-tattva. This essence multiplies endlessly. Gods perform their duties in a reciprocal play. Through disciplined Sādhanā, especially mantra in Kali Yuga, one can overcome suffering. Earthly life, from womb to old age, is marked by difficulty and attachment, a Tapasyā. The aim is for the individual drop of Jīva to merge with the ocean of Śiva. Sustain life with duty and love, but seek Self-realization. Hold to your path, reject doubt, and use your inner light. Guide future generations on this path to end the cycle of rebirth.
"Kali Yuga keval nām ādhāra, sumir sumir narhoi bhavapāra."
"So this drop is the Jīva, Śivatattva. And the ocean is Śiva. When this drop falls into the ocean again, the Jīva becomes Śiva."

Karma and koshas
4:18 - 5:14 (56 min)
The aim of human life is to realize the soul and return to God. The soul undergoes cycles of birth and death, experiencing the astral world and various forms of life, from vegetation to human birth. Human life is a difficult journey where one must navigate consequences, or karma, for all actions. The intellect is a powerful tool, but it must connect the brain to the heart. Causing suffering to any creature creates pain that returns. Life in all realms is challenging, and one must strive for liberation from this cycle. The physical body is the first sheath, the annamaya kośa, sustained by pure nourishment. The second sheath is the prāṇamaya kośa, the energy body vitalized by breath.
"Do not go against the nature. Otherwise, you will have consequences."
"When we create difficulties for someone, the pain will reflect to us, much more than that one is suffering."

Prana is balancing our being
6:35 - 7:44 (69 min)
The Viśuddhi cakra is the center of knowledge and purification. Destiny is the past karma every creature carries, but humans possess the freedom to create new karma through action. Every action generates a reaction, shaping future births. Good deeds and spiritual qualities lead to a favorable human rebirth, potentially in a spiritual family. Spirituality transcends gender; the soul is identical in all beings. The mother is revered as the first divine principle, representing space, while the father represents consciousness. Yoga is the science of uniting awareness with consciousness, balancing the elements within. The soul's inherent light can be expanded through consistent practice like meditation. The human body contains a network of 72,000 nāḍīs, with Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumnā being primary. Iḍā, the moon channel, governs emotion and water; Piṅgalā, the sun channel, governs consciousness and fire. Their balance is vital. The power of the human brain is immense, evident in modern technology. Negative thoughts attack the thyroid gland at the Viśuddhi; purification comes through prāṇāyāma and balanced thinking. Sarasvatī is the goddess of knowledge and speech residing in the vocal cords. Mastery in any field requires dedicated practice and respect for the source of inspiration. Continuous spiritual practice dissolves negativity, bringing inner light.
"Karma cannot forgive anyone, and time doesn't wait for anyone."
"Yoga is that science, the principle of uniting, harmonizing, and balancing."

Maya is a big cheater
7:50 - 9:02 (72 min)
The planetary influences and days of the week affect all beings, not just humans. Constellations and lines on the body, like those on the foot sole, indicate influences. Destructive patterns in a person can bring unrest to an entire household. The illusion of Māyā is a great cheat, depicted as a snake that silently drains one's life force. It binds beings through the three guṇas. All are caught in the cycle of existence, ground between the stones of life and death like grain in a mill. Only through sincere sādhanā and the Guru's guidance can one avoid being crushed. Before the great dissolution, Mahāpralaya, those who realize the truth merge into Brahman. The soul has no gender; duality is an illusion. One must practice diligently, love all creatures, and transcend attachment to be free from the cycle of birth and death.
"Māyā is illusion. Such an illusion, that you think that is all."
"Between these two stones, all are ground. Nobody remains complete."

Chakras in the human being
9:10 - 9:55 (45 min)
Yoga is the science of the body, mind, consciousness, and soul. A chakra is a cycle revolving around a central point, like a drop within a fog, representing the soul. This central point is mirrored at the navel, a mighty circle. Life begins as a tiny drop of consciousness, developing from invisible to visible, holding all ancestral information as positive energy and light. Meditation awakens awareness of one's level of existence. Chakras are imaginative representations, but their reality is described in sacred texts. Two energies exist within a chakra: negative, painful darkness or positive, supreme light called Śabda Brahman. This sound, or nāda, is the essence. All is located along the spinal column, beginning from one bindu, containing the five elements. The human consists of five bodies: nourishment, energy, mind, knowledge, and the body of desire for action. The mind is a reflection of the senses, receiving all knowledge through five perceptual senses and influencing action through five active senses. Consciousness exists in states from unconscious to supreme, dormant within the chakras. One must simply become aware and limit worldly desires. All chakras lead to the fifth, the Viśuddhi cakra at the throat, connected to the thyroid gland. Negativity swallowed in life loads this center. In myth, Śiva drank poison but held it at his throat, purifying it, turning his throat blue. One should not swallow psychic problems. A purification technique exists, but one must first cleanse the three primary energy channels. Psychic problems are a cause of disease; purification addresses this.
"Śabda, śabda is brahma, brahma śabda, śabda brahma."
"Viśuddhi means to purify."

The path of happiness
10:00 - 10:53 (53 min)
The soul's journey is defined by two paths: upliftment and downfall. Time is a human construct irrelevant to spiritual progress. The physical body, a temporary vessel of five elements, houses the soul for its development. External help for inner problems is limited. Happiness derived from others is fleeting. True, lasting happiness and self-realization must be cultivated from within. The two fundamental principles are utthāna, leading to development and achievement, and patan, leading to distraction and unhappiness. These divergent paths stem from a single origin, like two leaves from one seed. While past karma and destiny are powerful forces, they can be influenced. Association with good company and spiritual practice can redirect one's path toward upliftment. A true guide can help alter one's destined course. Ultimately, the company one keeps determines one's color; good association leads toward the divine, while bad association leads toward degradation.
"Your master cannot give you self-realization from outside. He’s giving you some ideas, some techniques, some good words, or it can turn yourself to that path which will lead you to your destination."
"If you go and control thyself, and you go within, inner, then you can change your destiny."

The Essence of Prasāda
11:00 - 11:30 (30 min)
Prasāda is divine essence, not mere substance. It signifies purity and sanctity, carrying spiritual energy. Anything sanctified becomes prasāda, from food to cloth. Its power lies in quality, not quantity. Consuming prasāda immediately influences the mind with sāttvic thoughts. Students should take prasāda before studies for success. The tilak applied on the forehead is a ceremony opening the third eye, representing the three times and realms. It marks respect and kingship. Rice, as an ancient grain, and milk, representing purity, are key symbols in prasāda. A blessing from elders is also prasāda. Food must be cooked as prasāda, with mindful preparation and mantras. Prasāda is a superpower that grants protection and removes fear. It must be respected and never wasted. All offerings are ultimately to Brahman, the complete source from which everything arises.
"Prasāda is not measured in kilos; it can be a quarter of a single grain of rice. It is not about quantity but quality."
"When you eat prasāda, nothing bad will happen. It will give you better memory, and you will have no fear."

The Essence of the Vedas and the Generosity of Nature
11:35 - 12:32 (57 min)
The essence of all spiritual teaching is to live in harmony with all creation. Time and karma are certain. The Vedas, studied for many years, distill into a simple law: give good to every creature and love them as yourself, and good returns. Cause trouble to any being or the environment, and trouble returns. Nature embodies this generosity without asking for thanks. A lake gives water to all. A tree gives fruit and shade without retaliation. A saint gives blessings without anger. Rain falls everywhere without discrimination. Every plant holds unknown power for good. Therefore, do nothing harmful. The practices learned here require personal experience and full knowledge before guiding others. Maintain the peace and clarity gained.
"Give good things—comfort, pleasure, help in every aspect—to every creature... then good will return to you."
"If you cause trouble to anyone—animals, humans, the forest, vegetation, or the environment—it will come back to you."

Vishuddhi chakra and stress
12:40 - 13:34 (54 min)
Morning program with Vishwaguruji from Vancouver, Canada. Yoga practice and Guru kripa are like a highway to our destination. All the emotional problems are blocked at the vishuddhi chakra. If we have a problem but we are trying to hide it, this affects the vishuddhi chakra. There are certain steps to do in order to solve psychic problems. If you are always changing the method, time will pass without success.
The Seeker and the Many Wells
13:40 - 14:37 (57 min)
The spiritual path requires steadfast dedication to a single practice, not seeking many masters or powers. A seeker repeatedly left masters, feeling he gained nothing from years of service, only to grow old and bitter. He returned to his first master to complain. The master then had him dig a new well each day for a week, only to refill them, illustrating his error: digging many shallow wells yields no water, just as changing paths yields no realization. True achievement comes from deepening one practice. Siddhis and powers are a form of illusion that can inflate the ego and trap the practitioner. Even great beings endured hardships. Final self-realization is precarious, as latent impurities can surface until the last moment of life.
"‘If you had dug only at one place, water would have come.’ Similarly, you were wondering about this master and that master... if you have stayed so many years in one place and done your sādhanās, today you will be the wise one."
"Māyā is a great cheater! ... Siddhi is a māyā for the practitioners. Why? Because when you get some kind of miracles, then your ego comes."

Prana and Soul
22:25 - 23:01 (36 min)
The prāṇa is life, and its management is the art of living. Ten prāṇas function within the body, with Prāṇa and Apāna being most crucial for inhalation and expulsion. Their meeting at the navel can awaken Kuṇḍalinī. Prāṇa is the guard of the soul; if prāṇa is lost but the soul remains, medical science may restore life, but it cannot if the soul departs. Pure prāṇa ensures health, our primary wealth. Health exists across five bodily layers, starting with nourishment from food. Fresh food retains prāṇa; overcooking destroys it. Cook vegetables with spices and water in a covered pot with minimal oil or ghee. Āyurveda favors ghee over oil for internal use. Chemical medicines can save lives but cause side effects, as they are foreign to the body's nature. Our long intestines are designed to process food, but poor diet harms them. Prāṇa leads to higher consciousness. Practice Prāṇāyāma and eat consciously. Avoid junk food, which becomes foul when chewed, and avoid alcohol, a destructive drug despite its medicinal origins. Choose a balanced, yogic life for longevity and happiness.
"Prāṇa is life, and life is prāṇa. We can compare our prāṇa to our soul."
"The first happiness or first wealth is good health."
