Only Guru Kripa can liberate us
0:45 - 1:46 (61 min)
Spiritual development is a universal journey guided by grace. We all seek the Cosmic Self, navigating between good and bad, often lost without a guide. The Guru's blessing is the key. A story illustrates this: three pilgrims traveled far to see the holy Ganges. A sage advised them to only accept food from those who had been there. Nearing their goal, they stayed with a sādhu who confessed he had never visited the river, breaking their vow. That night, three divine sisters—Gaṅgā, Yamunā, and Sarasvatī—appeared. They explained they carry humanity's sins, becoming black and burdened. They clean themselves through service at the Guru's feet, becoming pure and white. The pilgrims realized true purification comes not from a river, but from the Guru's presence. All holy places grant blessings, but ultimate clarity comes only through Guru's grace.
"Wherever you stay overnight, in a village, city, or forest, you should eat and drink only in the house of those who have gone to the Gaṅgā."
"We take all this dust, everything negative; it comes upon us... we go to the Gurujī's cottage... we do the seva... We become very white, beautiful, and we take dust from Gurujī's feet."

The Globe of the Self: Reflections on Ātmā, Jīva, and the One in All
1:50 - 2:52 (62 min)
The self is a globe containing all life and consciousness. We exist within this one sphere, yet we are both individual and universal. The science of spirit awakens us to this reality. We are the jīva, the living soul, within the body, but we are also the all-pervading ātmā. We travel and expand in life, yet we always return to the source. We meditate to find where we truly are, beyond physical location. The elements of the world come together to form existence. The Vedas contain this knowledge, but reading them is not easy. Life cycles continue, with beings taking birth again. There is a yogic science and a worldly science; both function but approach truth differently. Energy, or prāṇa, flows between beings and can be directed. Confidence in the self is key. Ultimately, we must realize the teaching of oneness: the individual is in the whole, and the whole is in the individual.

Around the world - Surya Namaskar, Zagreb, CRO
3:00 - 3:36 (36 min)
Sūrya Namaskāra is a classical yoga practice integrating movement, breath, and consciousness. It is best performed at sunrise or sunset, honoring the sun as a life-giving deity. The sequence purifies the body and mind. Practice begins with precise movement, ensuring quality in each posture to avoid strain. Concentration then shifts to the cakras, feeling each center's location and qualities. Finally, mantra repetition is added, creating vibrational harmony. This unified practice aims to make the practitioner like the sun: radiant and purifying, so negativity cannot take hold. Daily practice yields benefits for digestion, strength, and mental clarity.
"Daily morning practice of Sūrya Namaskāra makes your body and self like the sun."
"Concentrating on the cakra, knowing the mantra, and unifying these into a complete structure is necessary to receive the full benefits."

Live as a Yogi
4:35 - 5:11 (36 min)
We must return to a natural, yogic life to restore health and longevity. Our modern habits, especially constant eating and processed food, cause disease. While doctors and medicine have value, an over-reliance on chemicals harms us. True health comes from harmony with nature, like our ancestors who ate naturally, worked physically, and lived simply. Their routines supported long life. Our body itself is sacred; it is our primary religion. We must care for it through disciplined practice, proper nourishment, and respect for the elements like water. Become a yogi by dedicating yourself to this bodily temple. Do not confuse this with changing your faith, but make your body's well-being your central devotion. Practice consistently, avoid harmful habits, and listen to your inner self. Our collective aim is for all humanity to be healthy, peaceful, and long-lived.

How to practise mantra and kriya
7:05 - 8:14 (69 min)
The path of mantra and kriyā is a practical yogic science. We received mantra initiation, which is not magic but a disciplined practice. First, write your mantra exactly each day; this is Likhita Japa. Then, pronounce it correctly, as mispronunciation changes meaning. Next, chant it mentally, then reach Udāsī, where it is silent within. Finally, it becomes Ajapa, flowing spontaneously with the breath. This process purifies the mind. Similarly, Kriyā is the science of inner energy. Practice involves guiding breath through the chakras from Mūlādhāra to Sahasrāra, a minimum of 27 minutes daily without interruption. This is not a miracle but a systematic sādhanā. Do not teach these techniques lightly, as they require personal commitment and purity. Avoid fear and ignorance; instead, cultivate alertness and knowledge. True practice brings quality and joy, distinct from distorted teachings.
"First, write down your mantra. That is called Likhita Mantra. If you do not write and pronounce it exactly, then your mantra will not be powerful."
"Practice involves guiding breath through the chakras... a minimum of 27 minutes daily without interruption. This is not a miracle but a systematic sādhanā."

Respect the life of other creatures
10:10 - 10:58 (48 min)
Satsaṅg is the gathering in truth, and its essence is universal compassion for all living beings.
'Sat' means truth, peace, and harmony. We are all in satsaṅg now, together. All creatures possess the same soul, the same ātmā, given by God. We are like passengers on one ship or one aeroplane; our fates are shared. In nature, one creature eats another, but humans have been given a higher responsibility by the Paramātmā. Great teachers and deities have taught that we should not kill creatures. We should not eat them. In this Kali Yuga, there is much unnecessary killing, which creates a cycle of violence. It does not matter what country you are from; the principle is the same. We must love and protect all life, including animals in our homes. Some people practice yoga but do not speak against alcohol and meat; we must speak. Our human nature should be one of non-violence. If we knowingly cause harm, we must seek forgiveness. We must return to the principles of Sanātana Dharma, living together in truth and peace.

We can go altogether to God
11:05 - 11:50 (45 min)
The guru and the student represent the same essential relationship, a universal process of learning. All paths and disciplines, from academic study to spiritual practice, ultimately converge at a single point. Formal education is respected, yet it can lead one astray if it excludes the divine. True mastery is not in accumulated knowledge but in devotion. A story illustrates this: one brother studied extensively, while the other lived simply, performing pūjā to Śiva with only a mantra. The educated brother instructed the younger on proper ritual. As the elder departed, the younger, needing to ask a question, walked across water to reach him. The learned brother then realized his sibling's spiritual attainment surpassed all academic learning. We must honor both worldly knowledge and spiritual devotion, recognizing that all elements of life and all religious paths ultimately merge into one source. Do not condemn any teacher or path, for all are approaching the same summit.
"Everyone will arrive at one point. We are all coming from various directions, but we are descending to the same summit."
"The whole ocean and a little drop are the same."

Guru gives us the good path
12:45 - 13:23 (38 min)
The spiritual path requires following a true guide through the transitional age.
We are in Kali Yuga, a dark age nearing its end. Śiva balances all forces, working to harmonize and avert disaster, guiding beings toward a coming Satya Yuga of holiness. The true guru, like a mother, provides the correct path and blessings. You must follow that given path without distraction or switching guides. Many techniques exist, from physical science to spiritual discipleship. Karma yoga involves understanding all actions and life circumstances. Jyotiṣ, the science of astrology, is presented as a critical knowledge revealing the timing of all events, including one's death. The key is to go deeply, beyond mere physical practice, and stay on the assigned path toward oneness.
"Śiva is giving blessings and controlling everything for all: the ṛṣis, the yogīs, the spiritual ones, and also others."
"So without jyotiṣ, no one can go further."

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. During last year people could practise yoga individually. Meditation without mala and mantra is not good. We should follow our path. There are many paths but all comes together. Every creature have a path and they know that God has given them everything. Our yoga path is very clear. God gave everything to humans but we lost it. God is sitting in us. We should become one with God. We are human but we completely confused and don't know clearly our path. Mantra is very important which is always with us and show our path
Practise and think positive
15:00 - 15:32 (32 min)
The soul's journey is from creation to liberation, moving beyond heaven and hell to merge with the Supreme.
All beings exist in water, earth, and sky. Humans are given a unique capacity to know. It is said we originate from God and return to the Supreme Reality, Parabrahman, not merely to heaven or hell. Our true nature is vast, like a drop from the ocean. Judging others as 'not good' first indicates our own impurity; the tongue creates negativity. To clear the heart, offer peace and good words instead of conflict. Our spiritual practice, or sādhanā, purifies us daily, like washing a dirty garment. True renunciation, as seen in some sādhus, involves profound sacrifice, but such intense tapasyā is difficult. Many paths and teachers exist, each offering guidance. Ultimately, through yoga and devotion, the aim is to realize our divine essence and merge with the Supreme, beyond all dualities.

How did yoga begin in Czechoslovakia?
15:40 - 16:11 (31 min)
Understand the meaning within the bhajan, not just its sound. If you know the meaning, it becomes a reality in your heart and mind. When I first arrived, people did not truly understand yoga or the bhajans. We sang to each other without comprehension. The authorities were curious but generally permissive, valuing yoga for health. I recall a cold winter journey through Czechoslovakia, sharing tea and bread with students late into the night, always welcomed despite police formalities. The environment was safe and sincere. The only rules given to me were to avoid moving currency, religious discourse, and politics—principles that align naturally with a yogi's life. Practice grew steadily from small groups. The focus was always on health and harmony, free from politics or dogma.
"Because if we can’t understand—okay, good melodies, okay—this is a bhajan in Sanskrit or in Hindi or something. But if we know exactly what it means, then we have in our heart, in our brain, in our mind, it is the reality."

16:15 - 16:44 (29 min)
To progress, integrate spiritual practice into daily life with devotion.
Holī Gurujī said having children is important for progress; be good to them. Practice is not just for gatherings but must continue at home with your family through prayer and pūjā. You must learn and practice consistently, not only for a few days. The recent years made group practice difficult, but many continued individually. During the pandemic, our yoga practitioners largely remained healthy due to clean living and practice, though we must stay careful. My work has spread yoga widely, creating a community like a flowering tree. A devoted disciple of Mahāprabhujī recently passed, demonstrating ideal devotion by consciously leaving for his guru. We must aspire to such steadfast practice and devotion until our final moments, merging with the divine.
"Your families are all yoga, our yoga. Then it is very good; you can do it at home too."
"I told you always, that until the last, until the last time, when you will be in your guru and in your sādhanā, then in the last minutes, then you will go as into Paramatmā."

Seva And Ahimsa Is Love
20:35 - 20:57 (22 min)
Service, or Karma Yoga, is the holistic practice that purifies all five sheaths of being. It requires integrating Jñāna, Bhakti, and Rāja Yoga. Merely being vegetarian is insufficient for the Annamaya Kośa; true ahiṃsā is love for all creatures and extends to protecting nature from human destruction like deforestation, pesticides, and pollution. Our disconnected actions harm the earth, its creatures, and our own physical sheath. Purification requires knowledge: using discernment to understand our impact and choose protection. It equally requires devotion: selfless love for all beings is the motive force for true service. Without this love, action is empty. Service also demands discipline to perform duties carefully and humility to endure difficulties without expectation. Greed and selfishness pollute the intellect and manifest as violence. All yoga paths unite in selfless action to purify each layer of the self.
"Without Bhakti Yoga, the NGOs you establish have no sense. Without Bhakti Yoga, your work for environmental protection will not function."
