Lakshmi Van is the first landmark towards Sri Devpuriji's cave, which is located at about 5000m, close to the peak called Neelkanth.

Peace is humanity's deepest longing, achieved through inner transformation. Outer circumstances reflect our inner state; greed, jealousy, and hate destroy peace. We must be the change we wish to see, serving as examples. True peace harmonizes us physically, psychologically, socially, and spiritually. Yoga provides a practical path, developing inner peace through spiritual techniques. This inner peace then reflects outward into our families and the world through our words and actions. The teachings and lineage of our spiritual masters guide this work of selfless service and universal unity, inspiring efforts for global harmony. "Be the change you want to see." "One and all, and all in one." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

Education requires recognizing the teacher and learner within oneself. If you cannot find the guru inside, you cannot recognize an adequate external guide. One must simultaneously be governed and govern, embodying this contradiction to harmonize self and society. True education awakens self-education first in oneself, like a candle needing its own flame to light others. Modern schooling historically replaced one fixed identity, like a peasant, with another, like a worker, but today that rigid model is destructive. We need education for flexible identity, learning to manage energy for fight or peace, as in yoga. Freedom is not limited by others but created through them; society is a necessity for liberty, not an obstacle. Our words and thoughts matter, as we are largely water, and they influence our very structure. "If you are not able to recognize the guru in yourself, how can you recognize your guru in another person?" "The other person is not an obstacle but a necessity for me to live my freedom."

Sound, speech, and harmony possess inherent healing power. Mantras from ancient siddhas create positive vibrations affecting earth, air, fire, water, animals, and humans. Sweet words bring happiness back to the speaker, while harsh words generate lasting inner suffering. This principle extends to all life; speaking with love to plants or animals fosters their well-being. Many diseases originate from wrong food and negative thoughts like anger and jealousy, which create bodily tension. Harmony between parents and sattvic nourishment during pregnancy are crucial for health. Dietary discipline is essential; one should eat fresh foods and avoid aged products like cheese. Meal timing should align with the sun's movement, consuming different foods at breakfast, lunch, and evening. Bathing in a river's flowing water before sunrise draws upon its immense energy for purification. Human pollution and misguided experiments damage the earth and rivers. The Sanskrit language's fifty-two letters each carry specific vibrations that permeate the body and environment when spoken. Sound is the foundation of all creation. "Speak such words which make you very happy. You make others very happy and relaxed, and it makes you also, the reflection coming back to you." "The sound is everything. The creation took place from the sound." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Sri Devpuruji Ashram, Raumati Beach, New Zealand. Yoga is the science of harmony unity and balance in the universe. Love is God and God is love. First God is Mother. Space is the mother principle. The soul is the part of the universe. Consciousness is in the space but space is not in the consciousness. We should follow natures life. Allopathic medicine is not natural but sometimes can save our life. Cancer is in our body but if we do not go against nature it does not become aggressive. There are five elements which protect the soul. There are five koshas in us. Don't eat the dead body. Energy is in the natural things not in plastic. Say no to plastic. Uppranas are very powerful.

Sādhana, or spiritual practice, rests on two pillars: the changeable physical practice and the permanent spiritual practice. Our physical practice must adapt to our changing age and condition. While yoga āsanas like śīrṣāsana benefit everyone by improving circulation and health, the ultimate goal is not mere longevity but a contented life. Modern life generates stress and endless desire, which destroys contentment. Accumulating possessions only multiplies sorrows. True happiness, or sukha, is found not in external things but in inner śāntoṣa, or contentment. This contentment is cultivated through steady spiritual practice, primarily mantra. Your mantra is the unwavering pillar that purifies consciousness and leads to perfection, regardless of your beliefs. Do not abandon this practice, for it protects you and brings peace. The physical practice supports the body, but the spiritual practice of mantra and devotion is the essential, unchanging path. "Śāntoṣī nārśada sukhi, who is always content, is always happy." "As many things we have, that many sorrows we have." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The human body is a network of prāṇa, nerves, and glands, best maintained through natural harmony. An anecdote tells of women painted gold who died because their skin could not breathe; this illustrates that our entire skin breathes prāṇa. Tight clothing like jeans restricts this flow. The body has 72,000 nerves, a network where blockages cause disease. Natural treatments from Prakṛti, unlike altered chemicals, heal without side effects by becoming one with the body. Marriage symbolizes a sacred merger, a knot or gland from which new life emerges, aligning with natural cycles. Lineage and tradition preserve this purity. Sound originates from the navel; conscious speech creates positive or negative vibrations affecting our nerves and organs. Practices like Vajrāsana activate the Vajra Nāḍī, promoting digestion and energy flow by awakening awareness in the body. "Prakṛti, the nature, is slowly, but this nature accepts our body. This will turn into our body, as our body." "Sound is sound, but which kind of sound? How does it appear? So from here, you still have control of the heart, and you still have control of the vocal cords." Filming location: Wellington, New Zealand

Do not neglect your practice, or the inner light will dim. A blessing given is permanent and will protect you, even if understood later. All worldly conflict is superficial; deep within the heart lies peace. Take light from this eternal flame to ignite your own. "The whole creature is myself, my ātmā. Ātmā soi paramātmā, and this ātmā is the supreme one." "Practice is very important... The task is to first cleanse your heart and cleanse your feelings." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Auckland, New Zealand. Stress is created by our response to the outer world. Yoga is one of the best ways to live a happy and healthy life. Emotional problems and pollution can create diseases such as cancer. We need to concentrate on using Mantra in order to avoid stress. Vishwaguruji gives a demonstration and detailed instructions on how to practice Mantra and Meditation, which is able to remove restlessness, anxiety and fear. Pranayama is also good for this purpose.

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."

Today is the day of Bhagavān Mahāprabhujī. Brahmalīna beings are embodiments of the supreme, everlasting Brahman, which merges within devotees as both nirguṇa and saguṇa. Obstacles like negative thinking block this divine flow, just as a stone blocks a water pipe. Siddhas, who are transparent to divine vibration, manifest for purification. Cheating others creates lifelong negative karmic reactions; it is better to be cheated. Backbiting steals negative energies but also affects the victim. Maintain humility and positive thoughts to keep your path clear, like an elephant ignoring barking dogs. Reading holy texts purifies daily consciousness. External possessions are like dust, but your inner self is an eternal treasure. The mantra "Om Prabhu Deep Niranjan Sab Dukha Bhanjan" removes all troubles. Masters can turn obstacles into fog for the faithful. Divine beings appear in visions to guide and bless. The described bhajan celebrates Mahāprabhujī as the radiant source and ocean of immortal nectar, whose glory resonates everywhere. "Deep Niranjan means purities. Prabhu Deep Niranjan, Sab Dukha Bhanjan removes all troubles." "On whom this nectar of immortality rained... who have drunk this with a full heart... his or her coming and going back is finished."

A guided session integrates mantra, meditation, and āsana for holistic practice. Begin by sitting comfortably and chanting the Gāyatrī Mantra to greet the inner and outer light. Relax the entire body systematically, from forehead to legs. Observe the natural breath, receiving fresh prāṇa and releasing stress. Concentrate on the mantra, observing thoughts without attachment. Conclude the meditation with gratitude and conscious breathing. Perform a series of āsanas including Ānanda Āsana, Pavanmuktāsana, and Sumeru Āsana to stretch and strengthen the body. These postures work on the spine, limbs, and core, renewing energy. Practice prāṇāyāma to regulate breath flow, followed by final chants. "Just be your mantra in the breathing process."

A Christmas reflection on blessing, non-violence, and divine victory. Blessing is immortal, unchanged across all ages. We gather to contemplate divinity and the removal of negative karma. Many saints have appeared; today we remember Jesus. His birth brings a unity where no one is an enemy. Yet, even near him, negative forces arose—this is Āsurī Śakti, a black power that does not last. Divine glory and truth alone ultimately triumph. Reflect on the example set: to forgive, and to carry mercy. It is not good to kill animals on this day, for he was born among them and they were happy. To receive his blessing and Mary's mercy, give up violence and follow non-violence. Take a vow in his name to give up eating meat and using drugs, so life may become harmonious and one with God. "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." "Satyam eva jayate—truth alone triumphs." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Haṭha Yoga's essence is the six purification techniques, or Ṣaṭkarma, for cleansing the body and balancing energy. Our polluted modern environment necessitates these natural cleansings using water, salt, and air. These practices purify the physical system and uniquely influence the vegetative nervous system, which is typically beyond our control. The goal is to balance the Iḍā and Piṅgalā energy channels, allowing the central Suṣumnā to flow. This mastery brings many benefits, fostering willpower and overcoming inertia. Regular purification, especially during seasonal changes, removes metabolic waste that causes illness and stagnation, keeping energy flowing. Specific techniques like Netī cleanse the nasal passages, while Agni Sāra and Naulī stoke the digestive fire. These are potent tools that require proper guidance from an experienced teacher regarding the correct method and timing. "Haṭha Yoga is not only that we clean and purify our whole system, our whole body, but it also has a great, very great effect on our nervous system, especially the vegetative nervous system." "When they are balanced, then the third one, the Suṣumnā Nāḍī, will start to flow." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Time's passage is inevitable, and the continuity of life proceeds regardless of human effort. The sunset symbolizes this natural progression into age and reflection. Youth is preoccupied with action, while age brings contemplation of legacy and what slips away. Society often dismisses the elderly, yet true value lies not in appearance but in accumulated wisdom. Gray hair signifies hard-earned insight, not something to disguise. The essential support in life's dusk is spiritual light and lineage, not worldly achievements. Having children continues a lineage of dignity, but its quality depends on spiritual purity, not mere birth. True continuity is found in authentic spiritual practice and association, not in crowds or mixed intentions. "Let your reality come. In white or gray hair is the wisdom, my dear." "No matter how strong you are or how much you practice, when that Kuśaṅga is in you, your body and everything will be destroyed." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The Earth is a living, divine creation designed in perfect balance. Human activity disrupts this balance through mining, deforestation, and construction. The Himalayas are a young and holy mountain range, the abode of great saints and the manifestation of divinity.

One purifies the inner self through pure thought, nourishment, and behavior to merge with the divine. All souls ultimately return to the source. "Our Earth is a living planet, a Living Earth."

Haṭha Yoga is a distinct branch of yoga concerning disciplined willpower and energy. The Bhagavad Gītā references eighteen yogas, while Patañjali's system outlines four primary paths: Karma, Bhakti, Jñāna, and Rāja Yoga. Haṭha Yoga integrates into this framework. One local explanation describes four types of willpower: the innocent persistence of a child, the determined will of women, the commanding will of a king, and the striving will of a yogī. Classically, Haṭha Yoga begins with six purification techniques, the Ṣaṭkarma, not merely postures. Its foundation lies in balancing the nāḍīs, the energy channels. The union of the Ha (Iḍā) and Tha (Piṅgalā) channels creates yoga. Practice starts with the left nostril to calm the moon channel, which governs the ever-changing mind, before proceeding to the right, sun channel. "According to Patañjali’s teaching in the Patañjali Yoga Sūtra—a very good book—yoga is not only physical exercise. It concerns the mind, consciousness, and the vṛttis (mental modifications)." "Classically, according to the yogīs, the given techniques are these six kriyās. Then we go further with our meditation, mantras, and achievements." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The yogic path advocates health and peace through conscious living. Completing this year, practitioners have progressed toward the highest goal. Peace is scarce in the world, and a vegan diet is advocated to care for nature and all creatures. The consensus for the planet is to turn vegetarian. Meat consumption and alcohol are grave mistakes, correlating with widespread disease. Those following a sattvic diet avoid these and remain healthy. The first happiness is good health, which is the primary wealth. To achieve the human goal, practice one system of yoga daily without change. Fasting is beneficial if organic food is unavailable. Prāṇāyāma, particularly anuloma viloma and bhastrikā, is the remedy for bodily ailments. Do not consume food from the fridge, as it loses health value. Vary your grains and vegetables weekly. Exercise simply and consistently. Eat according to the season, not from global transport. Cook at home; caring for the body is primary. Make a resolve for peace, avoiding aggression from animal products and alcohol. "Pahala sukha nirogi kaya. The first happiness is good health." "Practice anuloma viloma prāṇāyāma as much as you can throughout the day." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
