The Thread of Love and the Roots of Devotion
0:30 - 1:40 (70 min)
Recorded on
The thread of love is fragile; do not break it with misunderstanding. Today honors a divine incarnation, a light for the world. Relationships are defined by respect: call an elder woman mother, a slightly older woman sister, and a younger person your child. This creates protection and unity, leaving no room for negative thoughts. True marriage merges two souls into one being. Forgiveness is the remedy for a happy life; harboring resentment causes lifelong pain. A simple misunderstanding, like over a piece of bread, can spoil decades. Speak clearly and forgive. Women hold the power to bring peace and save the world through their inherent strength. Devotion, not mere intellect, is key. A master tests disciples to strengthen them, supporting from within while shaping from without. Spiritual roots must be pure and connected to a true lineage. Seeking a master without a genuine lineage is like a nail cutter claiming to be a surgeon. Our roots extend to the ancient Himalayan siddhas. "Rahiman dhāgā prem kā, mat todo chitkayā. Tutā phir jude nahi, aur jude to gāṁṭ pad jāy." "Guru Brahma, Guru Viṣṇu, Guru Deva Maheśvara, Guru Sākṣāt Parabrahma, Tasmai Śrī Gaṇeśa." Filming location: Vancouver, Canada
Moon and Mind
1:45 - 2:53 (68 min)
Recorded on
Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. In reality, there is no sunrise or sunset - only the Earth is moving. It is said that the Moon is balancing the Earth. There are many different constellations. The Moon has a strong effect on nature. Sometimes, if someone goes on the wrong way it can influence others. We have to practice pranayama systematically. The master of the mind is the Moon; the principle of the Moon is water and water means movement. It is balancing our whole body.
Education for Flexible Identities
3:00 - 3:15 (15 min)
Recorded on
Education requires recognizing the teacher and learner within oneself. If you cannot find the guru inside, you cannot recognize an adequate external guide. One must simultaneously be governed and govern, embodying this contradiction to harmonize self and society. True education awakens self-education first in oneself, like a candle needing its own flame to light others. Modern schooling historically replaced one fixed identity, like a peasant, with another, like a worker, but today that rigid model is destructive. We need education for flexible identity, learning to manage energy for fight or peace, as in yoga. Freedom is not limited by others but created through them; society is a necessity for liberty, not an obstacle. Our words and thoughts matter, as we are largely water, and they influence our very structure. "If you are not able to recognize the guru in yourself, how can you recognize your guru in another person?" "The other person is not an obstacle but a necessity for me to live my freedom."

We will go one day
3:20 - 4:03 (43 min)
Recorded on
Evening satsang from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. We always worry about death. Death is a universal law. Our mind is always restless. We can train it by mantra. Manas is the storehouse of memories. Yogis are not attached to things. Only the bond between the disciple and the Guru is permanent. The story of a man who planned that when Yama came, he would hide somewhere. We should meditate always not only when we are in trouble. We should remember God every day, at least a little bit. Unfortunately present Indian generation is beginning to forget their roots. Birth and death come and go, but remember the name of God.
Symbolical stories about Tat Tvam Asi and Ganesha
4:10 - 4:48 (38 min)
Recorded on
The teaching is the great statement "Tat Tvam Asi"—You are That. A father teaches his son to look beyond names and forms to perceive the single cause of all existence. Just as all clay pots are essentially clay, and all gold ornaments are essentially gold, the diverse universe is a manifestation of the one Brahman. The essence is not found in the many effects but in the one cause. Another story illustrates this: circling one's parents, who represent the cosmos, is wiser than circling the entire world. The divine Self, Tat, is not separate from your true Self, Tvam. To know this is to know everything. An experiment with salt dissolved in water demonstrates how Brahman permeates all reality, indivisible yet present everywhere. All rivers merge into the ocean and become indistinguishable; all pollen merges into honey. Your true identity is that unity. "From that nothing, this beautiful plant grows." "Tat tvam asi, you are that Brahma." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Do everything with bhava
4:55 - 5:11 (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."

We are full of the divinity
6:40 - 6:56 (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
Be joyful
7:00 - 7:27 (27 min)
Recorded on
The Guru's light manifests on earth as pure knowledge, requiring a living guide for correct spiritual practice. This divine principle, the Guru Tattva, is the same in all true teachers, yet disciples share an intimate, familial connection with their own. The guru's physical form is a vessel for this light; entering its radiant aura transforms one's energy. Even in the guru's physical absence, gathering with devotion in satsaṅg magnetically draws that divine presence. The quality of satsaṅg depends on the participants' internal energy. Approach it not as obligation but with joy, for your own energy determines the atmosphere. To elevate personal energy, engage in singing bhajans. Consciously replace negative thoughts with positive ones to rewire the mind toward happiness. A spiritual life must be a life of joy and inspiration, rooted in the constant feeling of connection to the divine. "When bhaktas are together and singing my name, thinking on me, the Hari, the God, that divine energy comes to that place." "Satsaṅg is not an obligation, but satsaṅg is a joy."

Bhajans for World Peace (2/3)
7:30 - 8:36 (66 min)
Recorded on
Seek refuge in the Guru to cross the ocean of worldly existence and attain liberation. You are trapped in the cycle of birth and death, where all possessions and relationships are ultimately left behind. The Guru is the means to cross this ocean, destroying inner enemies like desire and anger. By taking shelter and consciously repeating the divine name, one can be freed from ignorance. The goal is a transcendent state beyond birth, death, and karma, described as indescribable light and eternity. This state is sought through complete surrender, offering all aspects of life—success, defeat, work, and love—into divine hands. The aim is to live in the world yet remain pure, with the single task of reaching the divine. "O Gurudev, you are the means of crossing the ocean of worldliness." "Oh Lord, I offer all my work and all my mistakes into your hands." Filming location: Austria
Bhajans for World Peace (3/3)
8:40 - 9:55 (75 min)
Recorded on
Devotion to the Guru is the sole refuge from worldly suffering. No earthly relation can offer salvation from the ocean of illusion. The mind is blind and the heart's austerity falters without grace. Surrender completely, seeking not worldly boons but unwavering devotion itself. Only the Guru's mercy can guide the soul to the shore and reveal the supreme happiness found at the holy feet. All else is transient; the Guru's name is the true path. "The loyalty and devotion to you, Guru Deva. When this exists, all worries go away." "Please... bless me with devotion—not with good things—and protect me from my blind mind." Filming location: Austria

There is one Soul
10:35 - 11:58 (83 min)
Recorded on
Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from retreat at Mt. Shasta, Washington State, USA. The ocean is the origin, the creation. Nada is the resonance, it is the Supreme. Vishwaguruji creates a sound from the sea-shell. The elements were emerging from the sound of the creation. There are uncountable Souls in the body like the cells. Humans are fighting in vain, there is one Earth, each of the drops are from the same origin and will dissolve again. Similarly, there is one Soul. Real yoga is to love and understand the body, like when we are practicing Yoga in Daily Life.
Follow the advice of your Guru
12:05 - 13:24 (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."

Share the bread with everyone
13:30 - 14:17 (47 min)
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."

The meaning of Bhajan
14:25 - 15:52 (87 min)
Recorded on
The essence of bhajan, mantra, and prāṇa is explored. Bhajan is not merely singing but the inner repetition of God's name with devotion, encompassing prayer, meditation, and all actions offered to God. Poetry contains wisdom, asking and answering questions. Mantra is a potent seed containing the essence of reality, connected to prāṇa, the vital energy present in sound and nourishment. There are two states of samādhi: sabīja, where awareness remains, and nirbīja, a union with the divine beyond the senses. The guru is not a physical form but a state of consciousness, a chain through which divine grace flows. The bhajan's refrain is itself a mantra, composed of names of God, describing the eternal, beginningless divine principle. "Bhajan must not be understood only as singing; this is inner-directed practice." "The guru is not a physical form; the guru is a state of consciousness." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Atma is king of the body
17:20 - 18:25 (65 min)
Recorded on
Perseverance in spiritual practice is essential, and the inner self is the sovereign of the human vehicle. Maintain a single target on the path to achieve it; without focus, one feels emptiness and anger. A practitioner, after twenty-four years without perceived experiences, considered abandoning his practice. Observing an ant repeatedly fail yet succeed in carrying a grain of rice up a tree taught him never to give up. The body is a coach; the ten indriyas are its powerful horses, controlled by the mind. Within this coach resides the king, the Ātmā, which is formless and ever-awakened. Viveka, or discernment, is the essential advisor to this king. If viveka is absent, thieves like desire and anger enter and destroy the vehicle. The guru's word is the arrow that drives these thieves away. "For 24 years I’m practicing, but I don’t have any experiences." "Ātmā is Nirākāra: Nirākāra means formless." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

There is only one reality
21:00 - 22:16 (76 min)

Yoga is the science of body, mind, and soul, a practical path to harmonize and unite with the divine. It begins from an understanding of creation. Before the Vedas, there was an endless, dark blue space called śūnyākāśa, which is the body of the Divine Mother. Within that space is endless, desireless consciousness. Between this consciousness and space is a harmonizing, balancing, and uniting energy—this is the true principle of yoga. From this, a vibration, nāda, arises, leading to a flame of light, the Jīvan Jyoti, and then the self-created Śiva manifests. Yoga, in all its forms, is the blessing of Śiva. Human life is one among 8.4 million creatures, gifted with intellect. Our purpose is to be protectors, guided by the law of karma through body, mind, speech, and wealth. Practice requires attention to behavior, thoughts, nourishment, and recreation. True yoga is not mere postures but awakening inner wisdom. Kuṇḍalinī awakening is bliss and enlightenment, not physical contortion. It involves the subtle energy system of nāḍīs and cakras, leading the consciousness from earthly to divine realms. "Yoga is not a part of religion, but all religion is a part of yoga." "Yoga is that science of body, mind, and soul. Keep the harmony between body, mind, and soul." 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."
