Mantra and Mala
0:15 - 0:53 (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
The way to God
1:00 - 1:34 (34 min)
Recorded on
The essence of spiritual life is Satsaṅg and recognizing the inner Guru. Religious identity is temporary, but the Ātmā within all beings is eternal. This essence is like an ocean, with individuals as drops from it. In this age, humility and goodness lead to the supreme reality, while pride leads elsewhere. The true Guru is beyond all deities, often silent yet profoundly present. External achievements and learning are not the final measure. True greatness is found in humble devotion and inner truth. Association with truth and pure company is vital, yet even simple, constant remembrance can be transformative. The ultimate state is one of inner silence, where all distinctions dissolve. "Guru Dev. What is the Guru Dev? The Guru is above Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva." "Sat. What is sat? What is it? It is truth. Truth. And Saṅgha.... With whom do you want to live?"

Recorded on
The ātmā is present in all living beings, and we must respect this universal life. Every entity with life contains the ātmā and the five elements. This includes humans, animals, and plants. Respecting all life is the path to sainthood; otherwise, karma determines our next birth. We must guard our senses: do not listen to negativity, do not see bad things, and speak only good words, as harmful speech returns to us. Animals possess the same elements and feelings as humans, only without speech. We must avoid harming others through body, mind, or speech. True service is helping those in need, like an intoxicated person. The label "fanatic" is often misused out of jealousy against those pursuing peace, humility, and non-violence. All genuine religious devotion is valid; differences are only in words. We should respect all faiths and never criticize them negatively. Our advanced human knowledge should not create tools for cruelty, like slaughter, but should honor the one truth within all. "Life is everywhere, and we shall respect that life. Then you become a saint, a great saint." "And that is called tanse, manse, or bachanse. Tanse, with the body. Manse, through the mind. And third, the worst, if we can purify this, we are pure."

Parabrahma Paramatma is behind the Moon and the Sun
3:40 - 4:07 (27 min)
Recorded on
The true guru guides the journey beyond form to the absolute. Many speak of heaven, but such states are not final; beings cycle through realms, including animal forms. True progress is like water evaporating from the ocean to form pure clouds, representing a refined state. That purity is accessed through true satsang. The real Satguru is a pure manifestation beyond Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva, never speaking negatively. Bhagavān Śrī Devapurījī is that light, identified with the sun and existing beyond it, guiding beings to Parabrahman. He cannot be captured in a photo; to see him is to see the sun. Religion is a human construct. The ātmā is equal in all beings, from humans to ants. The body is temporary; the Self departs. The true guru gives only purity, enabling passage through the sun to Parabrahman. "Devapurījī said, 'If you want to see me like a picture, then my picture to see is the sun.'" "The real guru will give only pure, very pure." Filming location: Rajasthan, India
We should take one step further
4:15 - 4:48 (33 min)
Recorded on
A time for unity and caution requires spiritual progress. This period brings both celebration and sorrow. While many observe festive traditions, a global pandemic has caused immense suffering. Physical precautions like distancing are necessary for safety. Traditional greetings like namaste respect this need. All prayers, regardless of language or tradition, share a single essence. At death, the soul is liberated from the body and its distinctions. Concepts of heaven and hell are transient states, not permanent. Divine love is unconditional, like that of a parent. The inner light of the soul is universal and identical in all. Current practices must evolve toward deeper, inward meditation. An initiation will be offered to longstanding students to awaken their inherent divine nature, though self-knowledge remains incomplete. Persist in spiritual practice with faith. "Different countries, different traditions, different religions, different meanings—everything. But they are doing the same thing we are doing." "Yes, you are God. You are Guru.

We should unite with the Supreme
4:55 - 5:14 (19 min)
Recorded on
We are all like a drop of water seeking to merge with the ocean. Life is a process of growth in time, from childhood onward, yet our individual journeys are temporary. We desire to achieve the goal of oneness with the cosmic reality, to end the cycle of return. This longing is like a single drop wishing to join the vast ocean; upon merging, the separate self is gone. Our familial and social attachments are not permanent, as each soul must ultimately walk its own path toward that dissolution into the One, the ātmā. "One drop is just in the palm of our heart, and the ocean is so big. And now, this drop wants to say, 'I want to go to my water, my ocean.'" "Your father and your mother and your brother and your friends... are not forever. Again, we have to walk on our path." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

We should know where our soul is
8:05 - 8:44 (39 min)
Recorded on
Yoga practice is growing globally as people engage more deeply with physical exercises, prāṇāyāma, and meditation. This inward turn signifies a return to the heart. Ancient teachings reveal a past of purity without animal harm, contrasting with present times. The current age sees a division between those who harm animals and those who love them. Development is measured not by science alone but by compassion and non-violence. The essence of yoga transcends physical practice to connect with the inner soul. A spiritual community mourns the passing of a dedicated disciple, celebrating a life of service and devotion. "The love awakens the perfect self-realization." "Yoga is not only practicing āsanas... we should know where our soul is inside." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Live life in a natural way
8:50 - 9:55 (65 min)
Recorded on
The essence of living is to know how to live naturally and fully. Life is more than eating, drinking, and sleeping. Humans have forgotten how to live, unlike village people who sustain themselves. Life originates from water and is interconnected with all nature. Many now lack basic skills like cooking or growing food, relying on systems that disconnect them from life's source. This dependence leads to helplessness. True living means engaging directly with nature to obtain and prepare nourishment. Modern conveniences and money have replaced this direct relationship, harming health and community. A natural life of cooperation, without reliance on bought goods, fosters health and happiness. Return to organic living, cooking at home, and family meals. Learn essential skills to be self-reliant and live positively. "Life—eating, drinking, sleeping, and sometimes walking a little bit—that is not life. So, live life." "Live life means not only eat and sleep and work; there is more than this."

Forms of God
10:00 - 10:57 (57 min)
Recorded on
The choice between form and formlessness is presented for contemplation. God possesses both aspects: the visible, physical form and the invisible, formless space. Bhagavān Kṛṣṇa stated there is no difference between them. As physical beings, we experience the world of form through our senses. The formless state is described as an emptiness with no objects, companions, or physical needs. While both are equal, being in a physical body allows for spiritual practice and enjoyment of life. The soul persists after the body dies, but its nature is elusive. Ultimately, both aspects reside within the individual. Life in form involves work and difficulty but also connection. The formless offers freedom from all needs. The choice between them is a personal consideration. "Bhagavān Kṛṣṇa said, 'No difference.'" "In Nirakāra, we don’t see anything."

Where is our house?
11:05 - 11:58 (53 min)
Recorded on
Our true home is in God, not in this world. We are born and move between places, yet never find a lasting home. Heaven is described as perfect joy, yet jealousy exists even there. A story illustrates divine purpose. God walks in a garden, greeting all plants. A bamboo feels empty and flawed, possessing jealousy's knot and fire. God explains He will craft the bamboo into Krishna's flute to bring harmony and joy to all beings. Later, the bamboo also serves as a conduit for the Ganga's water. Do not question God's actions; seek to understand them. Satsaṅg attracts those naturally drawn to the light of truth, like insects to a lamp. One whose nature is ignorance may flee the fragrance of truth for foulness. "God said, 'I will make a flute out of you.' ... You will make the whole world happy." "Chandana makkī parhāre, durgandhi vah uḍ jāye. So, one who is not a jñānī cannot go to the satsaṅg." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
Spiritual message of ancient India
12:05 - 13:09 (64 min)
Recorded on
The essence of yoga and spiritual life is found in the ancient Gurukul system, not merely in physical exercise. Sixty years ago, yoga was deeply spiritual, practiced by great saints and ascetics. Jain and Buddhist traditions exemplify this purity through strict non-violence, meditation, and simple living. Ancient Indian universities like Nalanda were vast centers of spiritual knowledge, later destroyed. The true Gurukul is not a historical building but the living presence of the Master. Disciples receive knowledge and support the Master's mission, creating a global spiritual family. This system provides a foundation of ethics, compassion, and progressive growth that common yoga schools lack. Every step on this path reduces suffering and increases bliss. "Yoga was then very spiritual, pure, and so on. And all yogīs, sādhus, and other people were filled with yoga." "I am myself Gurukul." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Help every creature
14:25 - 14:50 (25 min)
Recorded on
Compassion for all living beings is the urgent teaching. The world experiences great heat and drought. Many animals suffer and die from lack of water. While the ocean is vast and salty, sustaining life within it, life on land requires fresh water. We must help where we can. Our circumstances change, as illustrated by an old story. A mother gives her son a ring, explaining it signifies that difficult times will pass and good times will also change. This is the nature of life. We are to learn from such teachings. Therefore, we must act with practical kindness. Use water wisely. Provide water for animals and birds. Share what you have with all creatures. This is a great blessing. "Whenever you have any problems... look in the ring. Good days will come." "We should help everyone, not only humans, but all birds and animals and everything."

Respect your parents and Gurudev
14:55 - 15:52 (57 min)
Recorded on
The horizon is within the Self. External knowledge is given, but one must know what one can give. Standing at the center, the paths are seen, yet direction is often unknown. The educated child seeks the distant horizon, believing it to be perfection, but it cannot be reached. The parent instructs the child to close its eyes on the mountain peak and look within, for the horizon is found there. Seeking externally leads far away; one must return to the Ātmā. Inside, all are one. The learned sage Nārada declared "I am Brahman" from a place of ego and fell, humiliated. Ego ensures a fall, while inner humility remains right. The horizon cannot be achieved externally; be limited and go within. The ego stops there. Many in meditation try to go outside, but the horizon is within the heart. "Close your eyes and look within thyself. That is your horizon." "When the ego comes, then be sure we will fall down." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Practicing of the system 'Yoga in Daily Life', Level 2 - Part 2
16:00 - 17:11 (71 min)
Recorded on
The practice of Yoga in Daily Life continues systematically from Level Two, beginning with relaxation and progressing through specific āsanas and prāṇāyāma. A session starts with three Oṁ chants and deep relaxation in Ānanda Āsana, consciously releasing tension from toes to forehead. The full yoga breath is practiced, coordinating a three-part wave with movement. The āsana sequence includes Meru Pṛṣṭhāsana for spinal flexibility and energy, Catuṣpada Āsana for stretching and organ function, and Cakrāsana for posture and digestion. Each posture is performed with attention to breath, comfort, and the resulting physical and energetic effects. The practice concludes with prāṇāyāma to balance breath channels and a meditation preparation, ending with chants for peace. "Āsana means, except for other meanings, also comfortable. So āsana should be a comfortable position." "After exhalation, try to feel the complete relaxation of all the muscles and the inner peace, and stop all the movements in your body."

Releasing the knots of the heart
17:15 - 17:51 (36 min)
Recorded on
A spiritual journey moves from seeking to self-understanding. One arrives seeking external knowledge, like meditation. The path provides a structured environment of seva, sādhanā, and community. This life becomes a precious opportunity for inner focus. The external world and interactions serve as mirrors. Irritation reveals pre-existing inner patterns, not the other's fault. Life's purpose is pedagogical, to teach and unravel these knots. The practice is to remain present in the now. Realization comes from living this process to uncover the already perfect self. "Life is not to give you joy. Life is to teach you." "The creation in you, it means it is already in you; it is already in you." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Follow your human dharma
17:55 - 18:45 (50 min)
Recorded on
The human purpose is to follow dharma, the path of good, and avoid adharma, the path of evil. Dharma means causing no harm to any creature, including not killing for food. Adharma begins with harmful speech and actions, leading to the cycle of violence where creatures devour each other. Humans are meant to be above this animal behavior. Our life is given to find God's path, not for mere eating. God resides within the heart; causing trouble first afflicts our own inner divinity. Hell is not a separate place but exists here as cruelty. Proper human sustenance is from fruits, seeds, and milk—a gift from motherly sources like the earth, the cow, and our own mother. Killing animals for food or consuming their embryos is a grave sin that contradicts our spiritual nature. Yoga's true purpose is not just health but to turn the mind toward the God within. Practice prāṇāyāma to purify the lungs and sustain life force. Avoid harmful substances and excessive consumption. Support a life of non-violence and purity. "Dharma means to do good. This includes all creatures: we should not give them trouble or kill them." "Human life is given for dharma, not for adharma." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Family life: steps towards heaven
20:25 - 21:10 (45 min)
Recorded on
Learning is the sacred foundation, and the sanctity of generations is its vessel. Schools may close, but learning must continue at home. True knowledge, Vidyā, is a divine gift. The child's foundation is laid from conception. For nine months, the home should be a peaceful sanctuary with clean food and water, maintained by both parents in a spiritual atmosphere. Do not inquire if the child is a boy or girl; desire only a healthy child. Prepare the home joyfully, like birds building a new nest. The happiness of grandparents signifies the family's flourishing. Witnessing five living generations is a supreme blessing, a ladder to cosmic life. This tradition upholds the family line. Do not discard the elderly; to do so is a great sin. Modern life in large cities breeds separation, unlike close-knit villages where a new child brings communal joy. Uphold your traditions. The guest is God. In this age, do not let conflict enter; be happy, not angry or jealous. Achieve these steps through love and respect for all creatures. "Mostly they said, 'It doesn’t matter if it’s a girl or a boy, we need only a helpful, very healthy child.'" "When you have five generations in front of you, you have five steps to the cosmic life."

The Five Stages of Mantra Practice
23:25 - 0:09 (44 min)
Recorded on
Mantra practice unfolds through five distinct stages. The first stage is Likhita, the written mantra, which requires correct form to preserve meaning. The second is Vācika, the vocalized pronunciation of that written form. The third stage is Upāṁśika, where the mantra is articulated by the tongue without audible sound. The fourth is Mānasika, a mental repetition without any physical movement. The fifth and final stage is Ajapa, where the mantra resonates spontaneously throughout the entire being without any effort. This progression internalizes the sacred sound until it becomes one's inherent nature. The practice must be received from and dedicated to the master. Correct foundational practice prevents deviation, yet the guru-given mantra itself is paramount beyond form. The ultimate goal is for the mantra to permeate one's entire existence, leading to realization. "Likhita means writing." "Ajapa means that which is not japa, that which happens without japa."
