A Welcome and Reflections on Divine Unity
0:30 - 1:12 (42 min)
Recorded on
The divine manifests as unity within diversity, and our spiritual institutions are beacons in the world. We established this new ashram in Croatia swiftly after a wish was expressed, demonstrating how life unfolds when we release doubt. This place, named for a great master, serves as a sanctuary. All authentic spiritual centers worldwide are vital, like many children bringing joy and development to a single village. There is one God with two aspects: the manifest principle appearing through the ages and the formless absolute. This unity is reflected in the duality of Śiva and Śakti within us. All forms arise from a pure source, like water evaporating from the ocean and returning as rain. Heredity shows how qualities are transmitted, yet we all share a common human essence. We encounter many teachers in life, from parents to instructors, all guiding us. True spiritual masters awaken knowledge from within. All paths ultimately lead to the same divine unity, just as a fallen leaf eventually returns to nourish its roots through nature's cycle. "Āśrams and mandirs are like beacons in the turmoil, the ocean of saṃsāra." "There is one God. God is one, and God is God." Filming location: Croatia
The Globe of the Self: Reflections on Ātmā, Jīva, and the One in All
1:20 - 2:22 (62 min)
Recorded on
The principle is one in all and all in one. This science of the soul encompasses the entire globe and all life within it. The individual soul, or jīva, resides within the body, yet its nature and destination remain unknown. The self expands and contracts, traveling yet always returning. Meditation reveals this paradox: one sits in a specific place yet the mind travels elsewhere. The aim is to touch the ātmā, the true self, which is not confined to the heart but is the entirety of the body's intelligence. Both yogic science and worldly science operate, but worldly science does not know the Brahman it approaches. Energy, or prāṇa, flows between beings and can be directed. True confidence and prayer arise from the immense ocean of energy within. The path is one of purity, where all distinctions dissolve into the single truth. "One in all and all in one." "Next to God, doctor." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

The text is a series of devotional invocations and blessings. It opens with repeated salutations and blessings. Mantras and praises to various deities are recited, including invocations to Vishnu and references to divine incarnations. A village is declared as dedicated to God. The structure is liturgical, built on repetition and sacred names rather than linear discourse. "Praṇām, namaste. Praṇām, namaste." "God bless you. God bless you." Filming location: Rajasthan, India

Yoga and health
3:20 - 4:26 (66 min)
Recorded on
The essence of a yogic life integrates body, breath, and mindful living. Care for the body through exercise and yoga; neglect brings illness and suffering. Movement is vital, but excess is harmful. Practice moderation. Breath work and meditation nourish the lungs and system. Diet is crucial; consuming meat introduces impurities and disease. Familial ailments can be addressed through lifelong prāṇāyāma. Simple yogic techniques, like using water on the face and nostrils, awaken the body's cells and promote health. The goal is a long, happy life. Householders who work and maintain stable families are great yogīs, providing essential support. Spiritual practice is for everyone, not just ascetics. True yoga brings health, peace, and understanding. "Movement is very important. Meditation, breath exercises—what we call playing with the breath—are vital." "Either do not have children, or if you do, the children should have one father and mother in oneness." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia
We need purity in our minds and souls
4:30 - 5:24 (54 min)
Recorded on
We live in two ways: our worldly life and our spiritual life. The spiritual seed within grows continuously. We are all searching for God, who is in everyone and every creature, even a mosquito. All life is God, including the elements like water. A single drop of water becomes the ocean. Similarly, in meditation, our individual self merges into the cosmic whole, like a drop returning to the ocean. Science and spirituality are both great, but they differ. Scientists die and do not return, while great yogis can exist beyond the body. Our goal is purification through daily practice. When life leaves the body, there is only one path for all, regardless of religion. Honor your mother and father as God. Everyone who teaches you is a guru. You must walk the path yourself. "Not only humans—each and every creature is God. A living little mosquito, yes, a mosquito also has life inside, and that is God." "A single drop of water becomes the whole ocean. This drop immerses in the whole ocean." Filming location: Salzburg, Austria
How did Yoga in Daily Life begin in Europe?
5:30 - 6:12 (42 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is the seed of spiritual life, cultivated through daily practice and respect. Our existence is a continuous yoga aimed at understanding the divine. This understanding extends beyond the self to encompass all teachers and seekers. Initial efforts in the West faced resistance, with many rejecting yoga due to dietary attachments. Persistence in sharing the practice, particularly in Central Europe, gradually bore fruit. Gatherings grew from a few individuals to hundreds, including diverse seekers from various backgrounds. The core teaching emphasizes integrating spiritual discipline with respect for one's own culture and family. True progress requires consistency in practice and honoring one's roots without conflict. "Yoga in Daily Life. So, Yoga in Daily Life, and very nice still." "Respect your mother, your father, your brothers, your neighbors, and everything." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
How can we reach the Supreme?
5:35 - 6:14 (39 min)
Recorded on
Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. Only bhaktas can come to the Satsang. The story about a rishi who read the Vedas for a very long time. Only reading books can not lead to the Supreme. We need a mantra and the words of the Guru also. Bhajan singing.
What Guru Purnima means?
6:15 - 7:05 (50 min)
Recorded on
The Guru is the supreme principle, the complete source of all knowledge and the path. The Guru is above Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. This principle manifests in many forms. Anyone who imparts knowledge is a guru, from parents to teachers. The true Satguru does not proclaim the title; it is recognized. The lineage flows from Śiva through successive teachers. A successor is given the duty, chair, and staff to serve all impartially. Renunciation means leaving family attachment to serve everyone equally. The Guru's guidance is a key; discarding it leads one astray. The full moon of Guru Pūrṇimā symbolizes this completeness. One worships the Guru principle, which remains present beyond the physical form. The duty is to help all who come near. "Gurur Brahmā, Gurur Viṣṇu, Gurur Devo Maheśvara, Gurur Sākṣāt Para Brahma." "The duty is to accept, respect, and give all who come near everything that they need." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Body liberation and moksha
7:06 - 8:08 (62 min)
Recorded on
The pursuit of spiritual knowledge is often limited by fixed capacities and distractions. Conventional study is like a horse confined to a bow. People are like the shopper who intends to buy only bread but is drawn to everything else, illustrating our lack of focus. Many seek extraordinary powers like levitation through mere technique, but such pursuits are illusory. The physical body is a necessary vehicle, like a car, but it is not the destination. The concept of 'mind' is particularly misleading; it is unstable and cannot be controlled, though some call it high. True yoga is not about body and mind, which are transient and confusing. It is about using the body to attain liberation, mokṣa, and Brahman. One must progress through the five sheaths—annamaya, prāṇamaya, manomaya, vijñānamaya, and ānandamaya—to reach yogic science. Without a healthy body, sustained by proper nourishment, nothing can be achieved, but one must not be enslaved by it. "Physical techniques are very important, but they will not take us further." "Body and mind have no sense in it. And if you are saying body and mind, then both are wrong." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Only Guru Kripa can liberate us
9:25 - 10:26 (61 min)
Recorded on
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 living God
10:30 - 11:28 (58 min)
Recorded on
Evening satsang from Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India. Science is developing, which is good. Yoga is the science of the human being.The story of the professor who met a yogi while walking in the park. Where can we find God? Have you seen God? According to the teachings of Sanatana Dharma and Yoga, God lives here among us. Everyone has seen God. Each and every one of us is the living God, just like the ocean water is present in the raindrop. The same life is in all living beings. That is why we should not kill animals.
Be peaceful and harmonious
11:35 - 12:28 (53 min)
Recorded on
The oneness of all life is the fundamental reality. All beings are interconnected. The divine essence is singular, whether called God, Brahman, or another name. This unity is observed in nature. Animals, from large herds to tiny ants, live in harmony and community. Humans possess a higher capacity but often misuse it through violence and separation. The elements—sun, moon, water—sustain all life, not just humanity. A human life is a sacred opportunity. One must nurture it with purity, non-violence, and love, as a parent nurtures a child. All distinctions of name, country, and religion are ultimately superficial. The goal is to realize the cosmic Self, where the individual drop merges into the universal ocean. This is the state of Parabrahman, beyond all form. "God is only one." "One in all and all in one." Filming location: Linz, Austria
Guru brings us to the liberation
12:35 - 13:27 (52 min)
Recorded on
The spiritual power of early morning is essential for health and liberation. Waking before sunrise is a profound spiritual practice. Great beings advise against eating after sunset and emphasize rising before the sun. The predawn humidity on grass is considered Amṛta, a sustaining nectar. Walking barefoot on this morning dew for a few minutes can alleviate many ailments. Modern life, with late sleep schedules, creates laziness and prevents this. Go to sleep early, a few hours after sunset. All of nature, including flowers and animals, awakens with this early energy. A story illustrates the bondage of worldly attachment. A farmer, blessed with a son by a sādhu, becomes too attached to his family to seek liberation. Through many lifetimes—as a cow, a dog, and a cobra—he remains bound. Finally, through the guru's grace, he is reborn as a bee in a lotus offered to the Divine, achieving liberation. The persistent guru ultimately guides the soul to freedom. Connect with this morning energy by walking barefoot on wet grass or stones to absorb its power. "To see the early morning before the sun is one of the best spiritual thoughts." "When the real guru is there, not this life, next life, it will bring him to liberation." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
The search for God
13:35 - 14:26 (51 min)
Recorded on
True seeing and yoga are not found in external vision or closed-eye meditation alone. People close their eyes to seek God far away, yet God is present. Real yogis find the divine within the heart. With open eyes, the world's reflections are many and distracting, making single-pointed vision difficult. Neither open nor closed eyes alone suffice, as both states bring distraction or restless thought. Common yoga practice often becomes mere relaxation or sleep, missing the reality. Spiritual progress requires a guru, as a child requires a mother. Self-sufficiency in this path is impossible. "if we want to hear and see God, if you want to see God, then keep your eyes open." "yogīs actually do not sleep the way we do. They are awake." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Memories and experiences on the yoga path
14:30 - 15:18 (48 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual journey unfolds through grace, duty, and unwavering connection to the Master. Returning after twelve difficult years abroad brings profound gratitude. The path began with a mantra initiation decades ago. Guidance came to help establish an ashram, leading to the first yoga class in a home in 1999. Teaching has continued and grown since that time, offering something unique that students recognize as authentic. The Master embodies perfect completeness, and His divine aura provides unmatched wisdom. The path is safe; one must not stop walking it even through storms, standing firm like a deeply rooted tree. Life presents contrasting experiences—from a dharmic childhood to a materialistic society—all as lessons. The core instruction is to maintain dharma, to do the right thing in all circumstances, drawing strength from scripture even when facing loss. A profound devotion was realized in a moment of selfless offering to the Guru. "Every moment in His presence, we dive into His Divine Aura and receive wisdom found nowhere else." "The real hero is the one who, even while doing the right thing, loses." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Spiritual knowledge leads to God
15:25 - 16:11 (46 min)
Recorded on
Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Karlovac, Croatia. Spiritual knowledge is different from worldly knowledge. Spiritual knowledge is learned from the Guru. If you live according to God's rules, at the end of your life you will reach the supreme, whatever it is called. It is similar to the way a drop of water reaches the endless ocean. All living beings are pure souls, but our own actions determine our path. Many people think they are living a good human life because they don't have the knowledge. We must be pure in body and soul. That is the first step, then comes Gurudeva. Don't talk negative things.

We are life itself
17:05 - 17:44 (39 min)
Recorded on
Life is sacred and permeates all existence. Spiritual atmosphere is present everywhere through guides and sacred images. The Himalayas and places like Mount Kailāśa hold this essence. The entire Earth is alive; even soil teems with unseen life. Our own body is not a single entity but contains multitudes of living beings within its parts. All elements—water, stone, air—are manifestations of life. Desire acts like a balloon, lifting us but ultimately pulling us back to earthly cycles. True transcendence means going beyond everything and not returning. Spiritual practice requires patient, steady effort without force, like a mother cow yielding milk. The goal is to realize our fundamental unity, like melting separate gold ornaments into one. "Everything on this Earth is alive. The whole Earth, even what we cannot see, has life inside." "Where will we go? No feeling of the cold. No fire you can feel, no elements you can feel, so don’t worry." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Guru gives us the good path
17:50 - 18:28 (38 min)
Recorded on
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."

A pilgrim's vision reveals the urgency of spiritual action. The traveler sees a form, a reminder of life's fleeting nature. Act now on what you must do, or face regret. Delay is not an option. The divine provides answers and sustains life. The true Guru's word is liberation itself. It is the final refuge and the ultimate truth. Hold firmly to that promise. "Whatever you have to do, do it. Otherwise, you will regret it." "The Guru's word is liberation. The Guru's word is liberation." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Chanting divine mantras
19:15 - 19:48 (33 min)
Recorded on
The supreme devotion to the Guru is the only path across the ocean of worldly existence. Without the Guru's grace, liberation is impossible. The Guru is the imperishable supreme reality, the boat of the name that carries the soul to the other shore. Service to the Satguru destroys all obstacles and reveals the inner self. He who is opposed to the Guru is the worst of all; his work remains unfulfilled. Through the Guru's compassion, the soul attains fearless self-knowledge and infinite bliss. Reciting the Guru's name is the eternal companion across all lifetimes. "Without your grace, not even sages or saints can cross existence; the soul attains self-knowledge and becomes fearless." "The Guru is the supreme, imperishable Brahman, of pure form and an abode of constant bliss." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Divine consciousness and Yoga Nidra
19:55 - 20:27 (32 min)
Recorded on
Yogic awakening transcends ordinary states of consciousness. True awakening is not merely physical alertness but an inner vigilance present even in sleep. The waking state involves external awareness, while sleep engages the body's inner healing intelligence. Dreaming operates without the sense of a separate self. A realized yogi remains awake within all these states—sleeping, dreaming, and waking. This consciousness is beyond conventional perception. Modern science and yogic science are separate; yogis perceive humanity, but humanity cannot grasp the yogis' state. This awareness is the essence of yoga nidrā, a profound relaxation where inner awakening is fully present. "Awakening, yogic awakening, means you can sleep very deeply; it is no problem. But in that sleep, those who are yogic are also awakened inside." "Real awakening occurs even when we are sleeping. Each and every cell, all the inner doctors—the inner physician—is doing good work." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Water Is Life
20:35 - 20:52 (17 min)
Recorded on
Water is divine essence and life itself. Where water exists, divinity is present. It constitutes our physical form and emotional expressions, like tears of sorrow or joy. Without water, the body fails and disease follows. It flows within our nerves and blood. The ocean's salt is vital, and its evaporation forms clouds that bring rain, sustaining all life. Yogis harness this essence through breath. Human pollution has contaminated many water sources, yet nature's cycle continues to purify it. Our existence is fundamentally aqueous; every cell requires this stream. Life is inseparable from water. "Where there is water, there is God. Where there is God, there is water." "Water is life. Life is the water." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
