We need Gurudev
0:55 - 1:49 (54 min)
Recorded on
The disciple must never abandon the need for the guru or the teachings, for that is the gravest error. The guru is the principle that leads from ignorance to knowledge. This Guru Tattva is the essential diamond, not the physical form, yet it is embodied to provide tangible guidance. God aids the seeker by sending the guru, who is thus revered as indispensable. The aim is to merge the individual self with the cosmic Self, like a river entering the ocean. This is the Advaita understanding, where the one supreme reality is reflected in all individuals. This merging is the true purpose of yoga, achieved through the guru's grace and teachings. The embodied form concentrates this divine energy, making darśana transformative. The state beyond the three guṇas is inexpressible; it can only be pointed to as 'not this, not that.' "The moment you think you know everything, very soon you will find yourself asking, 'Where are the bricks? Where is the parachute?'" "God will send your friend with the boat. And the Guru is here."

The form of God is the vibration
1:55 - 2:55 (60 min)
Recorded on
Oṃ is the divine sound, the origin and essence of all creation. Oṃ is the primordial vibration, the sound-form of the absolute. Its written symbol contains a Bindu, representing both the point from which the universe emerged and the drop of immortal nectar. Yogis meditate upon it eternally. It grants desires and liberation. This is not a sound we create but an existing reality we resonate with through chanting. The practice of Nāda Yoga uses outer sound to journey toward the inner experience of Oṃ. At the highest stage, this sound is perceived directly, transforming into light and expanding consciousness. All true mantras contain Oṃ. It is described as the Word present at creation, the formless source that manifests as the three qualities composing the world. Spiritual practice without connection to Oṃ is considered fruitless. Chanting purifies, illuminates, and awakens divine bliss. "Oṃ is the divine name. Oṃ is God." "Oṃkār bina, sādhanā sapahote bikārī re." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Time according to Vedas and Puranas I part
3:00 - 3:55 (55 min)
Recorded on
Time is a cyclical concept without beginning or end, where everything repeats across countless independent universes. Each universe operates under its own laws and has its own trinity of creator, preserver, and destroyer. The structure of time is mathematically precise, defined by repeating ages called yugas. Four yugas—Satya, Tretā, Dvāpara, and Kali—form a Mahāyuga of 4,320,000 years. One thousand Mahāyugas constitute a single day of Brahmā, known as a Kalpa. This cycle of creation and dissolution repeats across vast scales, from the lifespan of a Brahmā to the final Mahā Pralaya where all existence withdraws into unity. Realizing this immense scale puts personal concerns into perspective. "The concept of time in the Vedas and ancient scriptures is cyclical. Everything moves in a circle, a cycle that neither begins nor ends." "Four Yugas make one Mahāyuga. One thousand Mahāyugas form one Kalpa. A Kalpa is one day of Brahmā."

Welcoming Address and Valedictory Session on Yoga for Wellness
4:00 - 5:08 (68 min)
Recorded on
Yoga for wellness is the subject, moving from practice to integration for national health. Yoga has gained global acceptance, increasing India's responsibility. The conference aims to establish policy parameters. Yoga is about holistic wellness, not merely cure. Two key features emerged: the need for integration between traditional and modern medicine, and the need for scientific evidence on yoga's impact on specific diseases. Integration must move beyond co-location to active cross-referrals. The ultimate aim is to use yoga to reduce the number of patients. Generating robust scientific evidence is crucial for global acceptability. The presence of both traditional and modern practitioners signifies the desired integration. "Yoga is not just about a cure. It is about health, overall well-being, and wellness." "We need to generate scientific evidence about the value of yoga if we want true acceptability." Filming location: Delhi, India
How to use the mantra
5:15 - 5:53 (38 min)
Recorded on
Chanting mantras brings peace and purifies the environment through resonance. Life's disturbances agitate the mind, but mantra restores concentration and releases stress. The Guru Mantra profoundly affects body, mind, intellect, and consciousness. Five techniques exist for its practice. First is writing the mantra daily; positive mantras are not secret and help others. Second is chanting aloud, which influences the three primary energy channels and awakens resonance within the chakras. Each alphabet in the chakras represents a protective power. Third is whispering with slight lip movement, a stage of turning inward while remaining aware. Fourth is mental repetition, which awakens the inner light of knowledge. Fifth is automatic repetition, where the mantra continues effortlessly like breath, requiring no physical or mental effort. This highest level operates constantly. Mantra chanting creates a powerful energy that awakens inner knowledge. "The Mother Earth has enough for our need, but not for our greed." "Ajāpa means you need not repeat. Neither your lips nor your tongue moves." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Feel your heart
5:55 - 6:11 (16 min)
Recorded on
Focus on heart-centered awareness and breath. Place your right hand gently on your heart to feel its warmth; the breath originates from here. Then bring awareness to the navel, focusing on these two points. The main practice is to think only in your heart, which is difficult as the mind wanders. Feel the warmth in your chest; applying no pressure allows great things to happen. Many problems arise from the heart, so placing your hand there brings peace. Keep your eyes closed and look inward, bringing attention back if it goes outward. Sit straight without leaning forward, using a comfortable breath. This practice involves prāṇa; even after death, something remains in the heart according to yogic tradition. This week, take good care of your body through mindful eating and daily practice. "The breath originates from here; it is warm." "First, we should not lean forward. That is not good for the breath or for our heart." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Mantra and Mala
7:41 - 8:19 (38 min)
Recorded on
Life is the Ātmā within all beings, seen through the Self. Humans consume life, yet must understand this act distances them from the supreme. Feeling pain teaches non-violence. To approach God requires immense time and grace; unintentional harm may be forgiven, but intentional killing bars the path. Saints do not boast; true greatness lies in selfless service. The mala is a constant step toward God, paired with a mantra given by the guru or family. Regular prayer, like the Muslim practice, instills discipline. The greeting of praṇām is a mutual prayer for goodness. There are two mala practices: one uses a 108-bead mala with a Guru Mukhī bead, turned with the thumb and middle finger without crossing that bead. The other is Sumaran, a constant walking remembrance like the breath, without a guru point. The story of Hanuman illustrates that one's chosen divine name, like Rām, becomes an inseparable companion through constant repetition, leading ultimately to merging with divine light. "One mala means for us one step toward God." "Your Rām is your mother, your father, your brother, your good friend." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Success in Yoga
11:40 - 12:55 (75 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is a lifelong journey requiring correct practice and a true master, not mere temporary physical exercise. Śiva is the primordial source, the consciousness that is the entire universe. He manifested alone, then created Viṣṇu and Brahmā. All three functions—creation, protection, liberation—reside in Śiva. We are that one consciousness temporarily in bodies. Our path is determined by our choices and associations. We must follow the true master in an authentic lineage to ascend; otherwise, we are pulled down by desire and bad company. The chakras map this journey from base consciousness to liberation. "Yoga is a lifelong journey." "A real Satguru is one who has left the body; only then is he a Satguru."

The Guru can change our destiny
13:00 - 13:22 (22 min)
Recorded on
The guru's grace can alter destiny. Everything depends on our karmas. What is written in your destiny will happen. A story illustrates the guru's power to change this. A king's guru met the Vedāntā, the destiny writer, going to inscribe the fate of the king's newborn twins. She declared one son would live in poverty selling wood from a horse, and the other would hunt, barely catching one animal daily. The guru warned her she would regret this. The guru then left. The king was later killed in an attack, and the twins were raised in poverty by a potter, fulfilling the destined misery. Years later, the guru returned. He instructed the wood-selling brother to sell his horse each day, forcing the Vedāntā to provide a new one each time to fulfill the destiny. He told the hunter to only hunt a golden deer, ignoring all other animals. The Vedāntā was thus forced to provide a golden deer daily to meet the decree of one kill. The brothers grew wealthy. The Vedāntā, overwhelmed, begged the guru for forgiveness and agreed to rewrite their destiny to become kings again, which then occurred. "Just be careful that you do not regret your decision later." "Guru Kṛpāhi Kevalam." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Anahat chakra and spirituality
13:30 - 14:38 (68 min)
Recorded on
The human journey is from mental turbulence to the heart's peace. The world is turbulent because people's minds and hearts are turbulent. Money is not a true loss; character lost is everything lost. Human life is the most precious diamond, given not for begging but for protection and Self-knowledge. People suffer because they are extroverted, chasing impermanent things. Remember you are human; this awareness protects from mistakes. The mission is to serve, help, protect, and attain liberation from rebirth. The soul is individual, but the Ātmā is universal; all creatures are one's own Self. Follow the four pillars: Dharma, your duty; Artha, sustenance; Kāma, righteous action; and Mokṣa, liberation. Education is missing, leading to distraction. Practice yoga always to regain direction. The problem is within; be the change you wish to see. The Anāhata Chakra is the heart center. The Ātmā, the Self, is felt there. When awakened, it bestows qualities like peace, love, and forgiveness. Its shadow brings the opposite. Seek the Self within. "Money is lost, nothing is lost. Health is lost, something is lost. But if the character is lost, everything is lost." "Be the change that you want to see in others." Filming location: Slovenia
Pollution
14:45 - 15:46 (61 min)

The five sheaths, from the physical to the bliss body, define our being and are shaped by our nourishment. The physical sheath, annamaya kośa, is formed from food. The energy sheath, prāṇamaya kośa, arises from that nourishment. The mental, wisdom, and bliss sheaths follow sequentially. What you consume determines your energy, mind, knowledge, and ultimate state. Modern habits have corrupted this natural order, replacing pure, sāttvic nourishment with harmful substances and actions, leading to disease and mental disturbance. A pure diet creates pure energy and a serene mind, guiding one toward true happiness. The path is obstructed by base desires and endless argument, which must be surrendered through attentive listening to divine guidance. "Jaisā khāī annā, vaisā rahe man. What kind of nourishment or food you eat, like that will be your mind." "Your nourishment, your energy, then your mentality, the mind." Filming location: Auckland, New Zealand
The way how yoga is helping us
15:50 - 16:53 (63 min)
Recorded on
The human body is a vehicle for attaining liberation, requiring purification of three primary obstacles: impurities, disturbances, and ignorance. The soul descends through cycles of birth among 8.4 million life forms, with human birth being a rare opportunity. The intellect is a powerful tool to discover hidden powers within the 72,000 nerves, particularly the four principal ones governing health, emotion, activity, and consciousness. Two fundamental forces, divine and negative, constantly interact within, influenced by time and place. The chakras represent rotating energies, with the foundational Mūlādhāra Chakra housing unconscious consciousness and past, present, and future potentials. Impurities—physical, mental, and emotional—must be cleansed through Haṭha Yoga techniques, which balance emotion and intellect. Disturbances are restless thoughts and waves that prevent clear perception and meditation. Ignorance is a curtain over consciousness, removed through attentive listening in silent spiritual gatherings. The inner instrument consists of mind, intellect, memory, and ego, influenced by the three qualities of harmony, activity, and inertia. These qualities stem from diet, society, and habits. True progress requires mastering speech and action, understanding that the world is transient, and seeking the ultimate truth beyond it. "Brahma-satya jagat-mithyā. The Brahman, the supreme God, which has no form, no name, but still He is there. He is omniscient and omnipresent. That is the final truth." "Before you speak, think it over. Don't say always that I am right and I am right." Filming location: New York, USA
Practicing Yoga Asanas
17:00 - 17:41 (41 min)
Recorded on
We practice Vajrāsana and Vīrāsana for the nāḍī systems. Vajrāsana activates the Vajra Nāḍī, which begins between the big and second toe, connects to the base of the spine, and guides energy to the navel. Sitting in it after eating aids digestion and can help with constipation by relaxing the stomach and straightening the spine. It also balances the sciatic nerve. Vīrāsana, the hero's posture, involves sitting on the heels with toes standing. It warms the body, increases alertness, and with practice, can help repair digestion and headaches. These postures strengthen the lower centers and foot soles, which connect to the body's organs. They develop leg strength, balance, and concentration. Practice must be held steadily to awaken the nerves. "This Vajrāsana is designed especially to strengthen or to activate that Vajra Nāḍī." "This will repair our digestion. This will repair our headache problems, also many, many things." Filming location: Atlanta, Georgia, USA

The Glory of Gurudeva's Name
18:50 - 19:09 (19 min)
Recorded on
The true means to supreme bliss is satsang, yet worldly pursuits are filled with sorrow. Only the divine incarnation of the Supreme Guru bestows true happiness and Self-knowledge. Without the Guru, there is no knowledge, and without knowledge, sorrow has no end. No being has ever attained the Soul-Supreme without a Guru. Great ascetics with supernatural powers, like Sanghdev who lived 1,400 years, still lacked soul-knowledge until liberated by enlightened saints. Similarly, the egoistic tantric Bhaskarananda was transformed upon hearing the Guru's words, realizing his inner faults. The Guru's name, chanted with faith, crosses the ocean of worldly existence. A human life without devotion is like an animal's; one must perform spiritual practice and service. The root of meditation is the Guru's form; the root of worship is the Guru's feet. "Śiva, Viṣṇu, Brahmā... guru vinā bhav nidhi tīre na koi." (Even Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma cannot cross the ocean of existence without the Guru.) "Kabuk deva bhayog karni kar... toy nidayo satguru apke mo jagayo." (Sometimes one becomes a god, sometimes an insect... only the True Guru awakens you.)

Shiva and the Chakras
19:15 - 20:40 (85 min)

The master bestows the nectar of immortality, liberating one from the cycle of life and death. According to eternal law, the master takes form to revive those trapped in mortality. This gift of immortality and bliss is understood within. Without fortunate destiny, one cannot attain this connection. That link is found in human birth, granting freedom from bondage and making one liberated while still living. The true master constantly dwells without attachment, and the disciple bathes in that light daily. "Satguru Jari Pilai Mujiko." "Gurujī merā amara jārī le āyā." Filming location: Melbourne, Australia

Mantras and Bhajans
22:40 - 23:20 (40 min)
Recorded on
Satsaṅg is the gathering where truth resides and God is the center. Life transforms in its light, allowing action with detachment. The broader meaning is a gathering of like-minded individuals focusing on God beyond any single religion. The closer meaning is the place where truth itself resides. Bhajans are the songs born from the realization of saints, expressing divine glory through poetry and melody. Diving into bhajans reveals endless layers of truth, which deepens with devoted repetition. This practice is a gentle medium for revelation, a base teaching requiring only voice or mind. To sing bhajans is to communicate with God and the masters, understanding their teachings. "The center of every satsaṅg is God. It doesn’t matter which name." "Bhajans highlight the glory of God in whatever form... The more often you repeat, the more you sing with devotion, with bhakti, the more the truth will reveal itself to you."
