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

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

A call for conscious living and holistic health. Modern life has brought widespread disease, largely due to adulterated food from chemical additives and seed modifications. This harms humanity and all animals. We must return to organic, original foods and teach our children this and familial respect, as connection is lost. True knowledge comes from ancient scriptures, not transient modern sources. Spiritual practice is essential. We need healthy food, a pure yoga practice, and authentic guru-disciple relationships. For physical health, adopt a simple fast of two days per week, drinking only good water. Practice key techniques: Aśvinī Mudrā to heal hemorrhoids, applying a tiny amount of oil or ghee to the navel daily for overall health, and Brahmrī to alleviate headaches. These require consistent practice over time. "Try to get all organic food for your house. If there is one day with no organic food to eat, then do not eat for that day." "Two days in one week: give up food, drink water. You will see that your diseases, many diseases, will go away." Filming location: Slovenia

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

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

Quality in sādhanā is more important than quantity. A man taught the principle of quality to a nation known for poor manufacturing. He emphasized that creating excellence is more important than profit. The entire industrial culture transformed, achieving tremendous success. This concept resonates with spiritual practice. Improving practice is not merely about more time, but the quality of each moment, each āsana, and each breath. Doing many things without doing one thing well leads to stagnation. Take one practice and perform it with perfect quality. Success follows from that depth. A clear direction for one's practice is essential. Knowing what one truly seeks purifies the effort, allowing one to seek out the correct practices and avoid distractions. Without a clear purpose, practice becomes inefficient and its quality decreases. Time for practice is limited; it must not be wasted. Every moment must be imbued with the highest possible quality. "Take one thing and do it perfectly. Success follows from that." "Once you have the answer, consider this: If a person thinks, 'I want a million dollars,' they do not simply keep buying lottery tickets." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The essence of the guru and student is the same, differing only in name and direction on the path. All come from different directions to meet at one point. Extensive worldly study, while respected, does not itself lead to the divine. True attainment comes through devotion, as illustrated by the brother who performed pūjā without formal learning yet walked on water. One must respect both worldly knowledge, like medicine, and spiritual practice. Ultimately, distinctions of religion or status dissolve; all are like drops returning to the ocean. The human duty is to affirm one's humanity daily, honor the earth as mother, and give love to everybody. "One master, or guru, comes from this side, so there is a different lecture, a different path. We are all coming to meet at one point." "The whole ocean and a little drop are the same. So we will come all together. Don't say it is this and this and that."

A clear aim is essential to prevent the intellect from becoming a destructive distraction. Without a definite purpose, the mind wavers among endless possibilities, changing direction with every new suggestion. This lack of clarity makes one susceptible to external influences and gossip, which act like poison, spoiling spiritual practice as lemon curdles milk. Negative talk and jealousy introduce destructive thoughts that can damage years of spiritual effort. One must therefore cultivate an intensive, unwavering aim and avoid all sources of negative influence. Protect your consciousness from harmful information that creates doubt and disturbs your peace. Spiritual progress requires guarding the mind and maintaining humility, allowing the intellect to become a supportive tool rather than an obstacle. "Your aim must be very clear, intensive, and good. Nothing should be able to change you." "One stupid thought, one stupid person, can destroy all your spiritual sādhanā." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 180a

The essential need is for the living grace and vision of the teacher. All spiritual practice is dry without the guru's darśan and mercy. The ultimate goal is to internalize this vision so it is present whenever the eyes are closed. True darśan is the feeling awakened in the heart in a sacred place, not merely a physical sight. This gathering after a difficult period is a profound blessing. The dedicated work of many has prepared this new space, which is an invitation for all to come, work, and build together in nature and peace. The current age presents challenges, but within them lies opportunity for those who follow the guru's word with faith and selfless effort. "All of our sādhanā, everything that we do in our lives, is dry without Gurudev’s darśan and Gurudev’s mercy." "So many lives, thousands of lives, you have dedicated to yourself. Decide to dedicate one to me." Filming location: Croatia

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

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.

Yoga originates from Śiva and is beyond mere exercise. Śiva manifested the postures by observing all creation, including animals and elements. He provided 84 key postures for health and happiness. The entire cosmos, including the sun and moon, is an expression of Śiva's energy. Śiva is not a physical form but the universal principle, with thousands of names venerating this truth. The ages cycle, and we are in Kali Yuga. Human life is a precious opportunity to cultivate peace and harmony through right living. A story illustrates devotion: Viṣṇu sought blessings by offering a thousand flowers to Śiva in prolonged worship. True yoga is the union with the divine principle within. Practice meditation, maintain good health, and extend goodwill to all beings. Live with spiritual discipline, for life is fleeting. Do not reduce yoga to simple exercise; it is the path to realizing Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva within. "Yoga comes from Śiva. Śiva brought sitting in the postures, and he was feeling very great." "Śiva is not only a physical body. We can’t see, and we can see, and we are different." Filming location: Slovakia

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

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

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

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

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.

Integrate spiritual practice into daily life. Maintain your practice at home in the early morning or evening. While walking or driving, refrain from excessive talk to focus on your sādhanā. Carry the peaceful atmosphere of the ashram within you. Be harmonious with your family, sharing your practice gently. Engage with the earth by touching soil in a garden to connect with pure energy. Practice āsanas and prāṇāyāma, such as Kapālabhāti, for health, moving beyond mere reliance on medicine. Yoga is a holistic practice for body and life. Proper learning requires attending classes with a teacher, progressing step by step through different levels. The highest gathering is Satsaṅg, where all come together in truth. "Yoga is not a religion, it is not spirituality, but health, our body’s health." "Satsaṅg means sat, sat means the truth, saṅg, saṅg means together." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

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

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

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

A morning ritual establishes purity and presence for the day. Upon waking, declare your human consciousness. Step from bed with reverence for Mother Earth. Begin with pure water, holding it in your palms to acknowledge the divine within it. Apply water to the face five times for physical, mental, and spiritual cleansing. Drink the water, feeling it purify your system, dedicating your life to the divine. The first sight upon waking should be a sacred image or a pure element of nature, setting a harmonious tone. This practice cleanses the residues of night and anger, fostering inner peace that is independent of external events. True yoga is this integrated awareness in every action, recognizing that happiness and unhappiness originate within. "Where there is water, there is God." "Happiness and unhappiness are all within ourselves, not from others at all." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

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."

A procession to the Shri Dudeshwar Mahadev Temple. In the village Sarthur.

The oneness of all life is realized through yogic practice. All humans are one, regardless of origin. The first humans emerged alongside divine consciousness. All beings are manifestations of the one God. Consider the ocean and a single drop; the drop is the ocean, yet fears merging. The five elements compose this body. Life is present within everything. The breath flows through the nostrils, connected to the legs and brain hemispheres. This natural control has been lost. Humans have descended, becoming like other creatures. God has given humanity this opportunity for parity. The yogic life is distinct. Do not judge beauty or status. At birth the hand grasps; at death it is open. Everything is yoga. In this age, consumption of chemicals and meat brings disease. The life force is real, inherited from parents. We must turn toward the cosmic Self. Practice involves breath and the subtle channels. Words and actions create positive or negative consequences. Upon death, all religions converge at one point. Prayers are essential. Suffering is inherent. Perform good deeds. The soul is affected by karma. Practice these techniques for health and realization. "All of you are God. We are all God." "At the time of birth, our fist was like this. When we die, what will we take? Nothing." Filming location: Split, Croatia
