We are full of resonance
0:30 - 1:24 (54 min)
Recorded on
All paths converge to a single essence. Different masters and gods are like separate drops that ultimately enter the ocean. From that ocean, differentiation arises again, just as water evaporates to form clouds. The purpose is to understand why some return quickly while others fall far away. A story illustrates this: seeds ground between two stones become flour, but a handful near the central hook remain complete. Those who surrender at the holy feet are like those seeds; they are not ground but come to the highest. Another story tells of a yogi saddened by slaughter; in meditation, it was revealed the karma belongs to the actors, not the witness. Satsang attendees are already there and will reach the supreme. The sound within, like the ocean's resonance, is Nādarūpa Parabrahma. This vibration is in the whole universe and within all. Do not sit passively like a dead body; respond and awaken to this sound. "Those who come to the Gurudevs, or your God, or your temples, or your church—where we are at the holy feet of the gods—they will not be ground." "It is their karma, and they will get it back again. But you have done nothing. You see, it is painful, but you have not done." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
The Awakening of Kuṇḍalinī: A Journey to Happiness, Love, and Wisdom
1:30 - 1:58 (28 min)
Recorded on
The awakening of Kuṇḍalinī brings happiness, universal love, and wisdom. Our journey spans many lives as we develop individual consciousness, which is part of the cosmic Self. Yoga is the practice of reunion with that Self. Energy from the cosmos is received through rotating chakras and circulates through five bodily layers. The causal body holds two levels: transient joy and divine, everlasting bliss. The soul is a collection of karma and qualities, not the eternal Self. At self-realization, this collection dissolves. When the physical body dies, karma persists like a shadow, guiding the soul's future. Chakras must be purified through mantra and practice for a stable awakening. Without guidance, imbalanced energy causes disturbance. The term Kuṇḍalinī refers to feminine energy residing in the unconscious, with its serpentine movement through the nerves symbolizing this awakening. "Yoga means union, and practicing yoga means reunion." "The awakening of the Kuṇḍalinī means happiness, universal love, and wisdom." Filming location: Debrecen, Hungary
The evolution of the Universe
2:05 - 2:56 (51 min)
Recorded on
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: Atlanta, Georgia, USA

Do everything with bhava
3:55 - 4:11 (16 min)
Recorded on
The Śrāvaṇa month is dedicated to Lord Śiva, who drank the ocean's poison to protect all beings, earning the name Nīlakaṇṭha. Offerings like water, milk, and honey during this time are for inner purification, with effects multiplied. Śiva is pleased by pure intention, not elaborate ritual. A devoted boy once performed an abhiṣeka with spoiled milk, pickle brine, and maple syrup, creating chaos. Yet, his pure bhāva, his heartfelt feeling, transformed the village, bringing rain and harmony. The essence of any action—worship, service, or daily work—is the love and sincerity with which it is performed. That feeling is everything. "He took that poison and drank it, which is why his throat is blue." "It does not matter how we do it, but with which bhāva, with which feelings, we are doing it."

The Foundations of Consciousness: Understanding the Chakras
4:15 - 4:47 (32 min)
Recorded on
The chakras are borders of consciousness. Energy centers are located at the body's major joints, marking transitions between kingdoms of nature. Concentrating on the earth chakra at the feet can lead to depression and accelerated aging. The area from ankles to knees governs animal consciousness and behavior. The five human chakras remain mixed with these lower qualities. The Ājñā Chakra is the border between human and divine consciousness. Awakening it reveals the inner master, though the outer master remains essential. Confusion arises when this center is clouded by intellect and ego. Ājñā means command, granting authority over the senses and freedom from karma. The Mūlādhāra chakra is the root foundation of physical and psychic stability. Its red color symbolizes the energy of Mother Earth, blood, and Śakti. This energy is worshipped as the divine feminine. The lotus flower symbolizes pure devotion and love, remaining unstained by the world. "Gu means darkness, and Ru means light. You enter into the light of wisdom, and you cross the border of this darkness." "Ājñā means order. Ājñā means command. So you become the commander because you know what to do."

We are full of the divinity
4:55 - 5:11 (16 min)
Recorded on
The Yoga in Daily Life program spreads widely through its intrinsic value. A key component is Sarvahitā Āsana, a set of exercises created collectively for universal benefit, suitable for all ages and capacities. This practice, alongside others like Bārikhātu Praṇām, serves as vital medicine for well-being. Consistent practice distinguishes the fit. Those engaged in jealousy and selfish gain are spiritually adrift and in peril. The community is a collective light in darkness, embodying divine grace. Focus must remain on satsaṅg, spiritual association, and divine connection, avoiding gossip and negative company. "Sarvahitā Āsana is very great." "You are all a light. In a dark night, even this one flame is there, and we all can walk by it." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Share the bread with everyone

Recorded on
Christmas conveys a dual message of joy and sorrow to awaken compassion. Holy incarnations appear for a purpose or remain as constant saints. God sustains all life, yet human greed corrupts this natural provision. The season reminds us of divine births, like Jesus, born into hardship to exemplify love and perseverance. Living in this complex world requires balance, like a tongue amidst teeth. True saintliness is an inner quality, not an external uniform. The path demands positive thinking toward all, without judgment, as divine figures work to show the way. "God is feeding everyone. And what they call the food companies are now controlling, and they produce the food as they like." "Those who love their friends and enemies equally, they are dear to me."

We should accept ourselves
7:20 - 7:25 (5 min)
Recorded on
The practice of self-inventory is essential for personal growth and peace. Examine your actions to see if they were self-serving or hurt others. Bring these shortcomings into the light and write them down. Apologizing to those you've hurt is difficult but creates healing miracles. Also, acknowledge the good you do, like being helpful or kind. This process reveals patterns of behavior to work on. It is like a business taking stock of inventory to succeed. By regularly accounting for ourselves, we begin to move in the right direction. Many struggle with self-acceptance, feeling unworthy. True acceptance is to be equal, just another person. A core teaching is that the mission is to teach people how to accept themselves. This practice fosters a supportive community where we can grow together. "That is one of the hardest things in the world: to actually have to face someone you have hurt and tell them, 'I was wrong, I'm sorry.'" "My mission here in this world is to teach people how to accept themselves." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The radiance of the true Guru dispels all darkness. The true Guru is the embodiment of divine knowledge. That Guru is not an ordinary person but the very form of God. Meeting such a Guru is the ultimate fortune. The Guru's grace alone can illuminate the inner self. Without this grace, one remains in ignorance. The Guru's word is the supreme authority.

Bhajan evening in Jadan Ashram
9:00 - 9:39 (39 min)
Recorded on
The yogic sleep of the realized being is a state of wakeful awareness. In that sleep, one knows wakefulness and makes the night bright as day. The senses are withdrawn yet perceiving, unattached like a white lotus in muddy water. One abides in the self, radiant on the throne of the heart. Wherever one looks or hears, there is no ordinary thought or sight. This is the sleep known to saints and sages, where consciousness remains fully conscious. "In that sleep, one knows wakefulness and makes the night bright as day." "Wherever one looks or hears, there is no ordinary thought or sight." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

There is no end of learning
11:20 - 12:01 (41 min)
Recorded on
The ashram is heaven on earth, a place of immense energy where the Guru is always present in essence. A journey unfolds through divine guidance, not personal will. A trip to India for Guru Pūrṇimā was redirected by unseen forces, leading one back to the ashram family. Later, guidance came through a spoken sentence about Romania, which led to the establishment of an ashram there through inner instruction, not conversation. A pilgrimage to holy sites in the Himalayas was similarly guided, with paths clearing miraculously to allow darśan. In all endeavors, the Guru's direction is for self-learning. Yoga is a path to discover who one is. Scientific research into modified prāṇāyāma, inspired by the Guru's words, later fostered a university collaboration and a successful public yoga event, where a protective cloud appeared as a sign. "With our yoga in daily life, it is not just āsana. It is a way to learn about ourselves and to look at ourselves." "One sentence from Gurudev can change and influence so many things."

The Pearl of Everlasting Bliss
12:05 - 12:26 (21 min)
Recorded on
Life's deepest treasure is complete and everlasting bliss, the crown of self-realization rooted in God-realization. Rare beings attain this pearl of Paramānanda. A seeker's deep prayer brought him face-to-face with his divine master, seeing the form of Śrī Kṛṣṇa. He became a true disciple, devoting body, mind, and soul. He received the highest spiritual initiation, instantly attaining samādhi. His life was a permanent establishment in the highest spiritual experience under his master's guidance. As a spiritual successor, he built and established āśrams, tirelessly spreading the light. He preached non-dualism, non-violence as the highest religion, and the unity of all humanity through song and service. His devotion was Parabhakti, love without reservation, repeating the divine name for over eighteen hours daily. Such love overcomes all obstacles between us and God. He became a living testament that this realization is possible. "My eyes filled with tears, and I fell to my knees. I knew I had found the everlasting light of my life." "All humans belong to one religion, and that is humanity." Filming location: Bola Guda, India

Follow the advice of your Guru
17:10 - 18:29 (79 min)
Recorded on
Human life is valuable, yet filled with fear that drives all religious seeking. All creatures live in fear, and humans are no different. This fear leads people to temples, mosques, and churches. The physical Guru is a conduit to the divine, not claiming divinity themselves. Spiritual traditions exist worldwide, each with unique customs for honoring God and ancestors. All genuine paths ultimately lead to the same divine source. A true Guru's promise to a disciple is eternal, working across lifetimes for liberation. "Life is not easy. They know, they don’t know. But they have one thing, and that is a fear, a very great fear." "So it means that, don’t think that the guru is nothing. When you have it, then it will be, not in this life, but in the next life."

The Destiny
19:35 - 20:56 (81 min)
Recorded on
Our body is a divine energy system of chakras, and destiny is recorded within it. Chakras are energy centers connecting consciousness, space, and energy. The body is an indescribable creation; it transforms food into life in a way no machine can. Our destiny is the fruit of past actions, recorded in our energy field like an unerasable line on stone. We cannot delete it, but through spiritual practice, we can rise above it. The Ājñā Chakra, or third eye, when opened, grants vision of past, present, and future. Negative energies—Kāma, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Ahaṅkāra—arise from the lower chakras and bind us. These must be replaced with positive qualities: Tyāga, Vairāgya, Bhakti, Jñāna, and Viveka. A practice like Pañcāmṛta—a mixture of milk, yogurt, butter, honey, and pure water—used in worship, can help purify energy and balance the chakras. Following a master's guidance can help monitor and navigate destiny, though not erase it. The aim is to realize the oneness of all consciousness. "Destiny is a line on the stone. We can't delete it." "When we realize the oneness, then there is no difference between God and us, because it's the same energy, the same space." Filming location: New York, USA

Yoga is the ancient science of body, mind, and soul, given for human well-being. Its authentic postures and philosophy are detailed in ancient texts like the Śiva Saṁhitā. Modern, commercialized yoga often ignores this depth, leading to potential harm from incorrect practice. True health requires quality nourishment—organic, sattvic food—and mindful consumption, not just following tastes. Our mental health is influenced by social company and trends, which can manipulate us. Spiritual health requires rising above ambition and practicing tolerance. Key principles for life are dharma (righteousness), dhīraja (fortitude), mitra (true friendship), and commitment to one's life partner. Without mastering physical, mental, and social health, spiritual progress and real meditation are impossible. Meditation is not making selfish requests but achieving a motionless state leading to self-realization. The path involves the eight limbs: yama, niyama, āsana, prāṇāyāma, pratyāhāra, dhāraṇā, dhyāna, and samādhi. Practice is essential; theory alone is worthless. The goal is to realize the oneness of knowledge, knower, and object, which is God-realization. "Half-knowledge is more dangerous than no knowledge." "Yoga means, yogī means, practice."

What is God?
22:50 - 23:48 (58 min)
Recorded on
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: Atlanta, Georgia, USA
Spiritual Sadhana
23:55 - 0:48 (53 min)
Recorded on
The practice of yoga and discipline aligns the practitioner with the divine. All spiritual beings become the God they worship, regardless of religion. Creatures of the dawn awaken for a higher purpose, while those active only in darkness engage in negative actions. Humans should emulate the discipline of the dawn, rising early for practice like the military, to restore balance. True yogic practice extends beyond physical postures to deeper spiritual levels. Great masters from India's lineage demonstrate profound spiritual power, performing miracles like restoring life. This land is considered divine. The current time is an opportunity to stay home with family and cultivate compassion, which is the root of all religion. "All those who are spiritual, those who are ceremonious, they are that God which they worship." "Dayā, dharma kā mūla hai. Pāpa mūla abhimāna." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
