The health of the bones
0:30 - 1:22 (52 min)
Holy water is a gift of purification for all occasions, representing positive thought and clean energy. Physical and mental dust are constant, requiring regular cleansing like washing the hands. The body's skin is a sensitive, self-cleaning organ that must be cared for naturally. Avoid artificial products like commercial creams, lipsticks, and soaps containing alcohol, which dry and damage the skin. Use pure water, natural oils, butter, or earth instead. The physical body, the annamaya kośa, is sustained by vegetarian food and simple daily practices. Yoga āsanas and prāṇāyāma are essential for health, focusing on gentle movement over extreme postures. Strengthen bones with natural oils and ghee, not through meat consumption. Practice simple exercises regularly, even for seconds at a time, to maintain the body. True care comes from natural substances and consistent, moderate practice.

We have to become one
1:30 - 3:04 (94 min)
The subject is detachment and the true Self. The soul seeks to merge into oneness with the Supreme, like space containing all things. This unity is eternal but difficult, as it requires releasing all attachment. Attachment to wealth, body, and relationships creates conditions and suffering. Renunciation is challenging. One must break attachment to join with God. Nothing belongs to you—not body, thoughts, or intellect. Only the soul is eternal. When the soul departs, no one accompanies it. We must move beyond duality and concepts of "mine" to realize the true Self as boundless consciousness. This is not a mental understanding but a state of being.
"I am neither the mind, intellect, nor the elements. I am that eternal blissful consciousness."
"There is only one God. The duality we perceive is a human creation."

Respect is important
3:10 - 4:03 (53 min)
The power of language and respect shapes spiritual life. Words carry energy, influencing our inner state and relationships. A story illustrates this: a man feared the yoga pose called Śavāsana, the corpse pose. After this, the name was changed to Ānandāsana, the bliss pose, to remove fear. How we speak is crucial. We do not "take" a mantra; we may "get" it as a sacred gift, which changes our entire attitude. Modern communication often loses depth and respect, using abbreviated or vulgar language absorbed from media. This influences us subconsciously and must be guarded against. Addressing others with respectful titles, like "Devī" for a woman, cultivates different inner feelings. The manner of giving, even food, carries energy; offering with the right hand and respect changes the offering's quality. Respect extends to spiritual objects; keeping a mālā in a clean, valued place allows it to retain its energy. Physical posture also matters; sitting like a king or giving like a beggar changes the inner experience. Pronunciation in mantra is vital, as a single sound can change a word's entire meaning.
"Your entire spiritual path becomes different. Yes, just try to think about this: it is a completely different approach."
"If we are not aware, this will come subconsciously inside. We need to put a firewall in front of us, not to allow such thoughts and such language to become common to us."

Every creature have its karma
4:10 - 5:03 (53 min)
Karma connects all life, seen and unseen. It is not only for humans but for every creature, tree, and stone. Our actions and experiences are intertwined through karmic bonds we may not understand. A creature dies suddenly on the road; we feel a connection. A tree lives for thousands of years, rooted through seasons, yet its leaves scatter on the wind, and its life can end from unseen forces within, like insects drawn by piled bark. Even a stone has life, becoming dust, then part of a body again. Time is nothing, yet it brings all things. Therefore, we must act with goodness. Do not give negativity; bring good again. Help others, as one man helped a beaten stranger. We should not fight or speak ill, for we are human. All life—trees, animals, grass—is our mother and father, giving us sustenance. We must protect it, not needlessly destroy. Our current way, cutting vast forests for profit, shows humans are not good. Yet, we can choose differently. Do good for all.
"Karma is in everything."
"Time is nothing, time is nothing. Wait, wait, but it means that time comes."

Yoga, Āyurveda, and the Journey Beyond: From Vikāra to Turīya
5:10 - 6:05 (55 min)
Yoga and Āyurveda address disease, or vikāra, in the physical and mental realms. Physical vikāra arises from disregarding natural harmony in diet and living. Mental vikāra manifests as the six afflictions: desire, anger, attachment, greed, pride, and ego. These lead to cintā, or chronic worry, which consumes one from within like a termite hollowing a tree. The remedy is to renounce attachment to what is lost and to practice svādhyāya, the study of one's own unfulfilled chapters. Meditation relieves this tension by revealing the unreality of persistent worry. Deeper practice involves mastering the three states of consciousness—waking, dreaming, and deep sleep—through Yoga Nidrā. This conscious sleep purifies the subconscious, resolves latent conflicts, and can recharge energy. Mastery leads to the fourth state, chaitanya, a wakeful consciousness that perceives past, present, and future.
"Vikāra is something which is destroying itself, like when fruit is lying a long time and is rotten."
"The root of righteousness is mercy."

Be positive
6:10 - 7:20 (70 min)
The choice between positivity and negativity is a fundamental spiritual decision. One must not judge others without knowing the full story, as appearances are deceptive. The people and atmosphere one chooses directly shape the mind's development. Ultimately, the path is a personal choice. There are four types of grace: divine grace, the grace of parents and teachers, the supreme grace of the Guru, and one's own grace. The Guru shows the path but does not force the disciple; one's own effort is crucial. Cultivate gratitude for what you have, as craving more leads to misery, exemplified by the farmer who became unhappy after finding 99 coins. Do not seek faults in others, for that draws their negativity onto oneself. Negativity is often more alluring, but positive association is essential for growth. Even animals sense intention, as when a saint's negative thought drove swans away. Use discrimination to choose the positive path. Spiritual progress depends on personal choice, Guru's grace, and righteous living.

Bhajan evening in the Jadan Ashram
7:30 - 8:09 (39 min)
The senses are powerful and create the entire world of entanglement. The ten senses within the body are difficult for any yogi to fully master. The world is ensnared by their play, particularly by the lower senses like taste and procreation. All beings, from Brahma to animals, are bound by these senses. Their force is the great delusion that must be conquered.
"The senses are a powerful force of delusion; what has this entangled world become?"
"All beings of the world are under the control of these senses. What has this world become, so entangled?"

The promise to the divine must be fulfilled. A vow made to the Guru and the Lord is an absolute commitment that defines the spiritual path. This promise is the essence of devotion and the means to liberation. The devotee's role is to uphold this word above all else, regardless of the coming and going of other followers. The ultimate aim is to realize one's divine nature, supported by grace. Fulfilling this sacred promise is the core duty.

Bhajan evening in Jadan Ashram
9:40 - 10:02 (22 min)
The essence is the unstruck sound, the Anāhada, realized through devotion beyond form and thought. This is not an experience of the body or mind. It is beyond all attributes, beyond the forms of Rama or any shadow. It is the formless void that holds the supreme form. Neither meditation nor chanting can reach it. It is understood only through the grace of the true Guru. One must surrender at the divine feet, seeking mercy and blessings for liberation. The devotional offering is the path.
"Neither meditation nor chanting can reach it."

The compassionate Lord Śiva resides within the heart and bestows liberation. He is the primal Lord whose radiance fills all universes. Taking shelter in him ends pain and brings divine happiness. He cuts the noose of bondage with his own hand and liberates the soul. Worship and meditation upon this blessing cure diseases and remove all obstacles. Success is bestowed in the heart, and one obtains everything without asking. Focus the mind on the Guru in the heart to dispel all sorrow. Through the Guru's grace, all ignorance is destroyed, revealing the true self. One who serves the True Guru never falls into hell, and all fears vanish. Merge the mind in the True Guru.
"He Himself respectfully calls out to His devotees."

Death is a transition
12:35 - 13:36 (61 min)
Death is a transition, not an end, for those on the spiritual path. The fear of death arises from thought, but it is a universal law. The Guru prepares the devotee, freeing them from the cycle of death and rebirth through grace and devotion. Surrender to the Guru, without ego or expectation, opens the heart to become one with the Supreme. Spiritual growth is like climbing a mountain; do not give up, but pause and seek the Guru's strength to continue. Utilize spiritual gifts wisely, not wastefully, to sustain your journey. The ultimate goal is liberation and union.
"For those who follow the spiritual path, for those who have Guru Bhakti... the Guru prepares them, and then they know there is nothing to be worried about."
"The Guru is the one who actually frees us from that cycle. Gurudev is the one who frees us from this cycle."

Practising Asanas from Vep
16:00 - 16:57 (57 min)
A yoga practice moves from stillness to dynamic movement, integrating precise alignment with collective rhythm. Begin in Śavāsana, lengthening the neck and stabilizing the lower back. Simple movements prepare the body, emphasizing synchronized group action over individual stretch. The practice progresses through leg lifts, spinal rolls, and postures like Śaśāṅkāsana, which calms fear and aids digestion. Dynamic sequences in Vajrāsana and variations like Uttānapṛṣṭhāsana strengthen the trunk and spine. A forearm Marjari variation mobilizes the thoracic spine. The session concludes with guided relaxation, allowing any comfortable position before rehydration. Synchrony and mindful breath are central throughout.
"Śaśāṅkāsana reduces the fear in our heart, the stress and fear."
"This will strengthen our whole trunk muscles. It will make the spine straight."

The quality of our era is determined by our inner state. While some lament this age, it offers unique tools like rapid travel and distant connection. The key is to extract only the nourishing essence from the vast information, like the swan separating milk from water. Our experience of time depends on our inner qualities. This gathering is a timeout to calm our inner dialogue, not to escape life but to gain clarity before re-engaging. We require the support of our spiritual family for strength. Utilize this time for serious practice, particularly prāṇāyāma to settle the agitated mind and prāṇa. Calm the body through deliberate movement to quiet mental disturbances. Simplify your environment and focus intently, avoiding distractions like constant drinking which disrupts inner fire and focus. Move from mere belief to direct understanding.

Śaṅkha Prakṣālana and Kunjal Kriyā: Purification of the Intestine and Stomach
18:00 - 18:40 (40 min)
This lecture details the Śaṅkha Prakṣālana and Kunjal Kriyā purification techniques. Śaṅkha Prakṣālana is the cleansing of the entire intestine using warm, lightly salted water, performed early in the morning on an empty stomach. It involves drinking water and performing specific movements and postures to guide the water through the system. This practice is beneficial for conditions like high blood pressure and digestive issues but is not advised for those under 15, individuals with active ulcers or hernias, or pregnant women. Preparation includes a light diet the prior evening. The process continues until the expelled water runs clear. A strict diet must follow for at least one week, avoiding alcohol, meat, fish, eggs, and raw foods. Kunjal Kriyā is the cleansing of the stomach, performed after Śaṅkha Prakṣālana by drinking unsalted water to the point of fullness and then voluntarily expelling it. This practice helps purify the stomach and can aid those with bronchial asthma. The session concludes with rest and a meal of specially prepared kicharī.
"The best time to do Śaṅkha Prakṣālana is in March, the beginning of September, the end of May, and before the winter."
"After Śaṅkha Prakṣālana, you have to keep a diet for at least, strictly, seven days, one week, and up to one month."

Atma is spotless

One word transmits a message to all, like rain falling equally on every creature. In difficulty, know you are carried by God, not abandoned. A true yogi, beyond all ritual, desires nothing, not even from Shiva. The soul is spotless, like the endless sky. Our body is a temporary shell; the eternal Ātmā within is one with the Guru's heart. Purification is for the mind, but the soul itself is already pure.
"When the difficult time comes, then you should know that you are now with God."

This place is a sanctuary of purity and spiritual well-being. It is full of prāṇa and very good for health, as our environment here is clean and free from chemicals. The natural water flows, the healthy trees, and the pure air create a healing atmosphere. People recover from ailments and stress through meditation, prāṇāyāma, and satsaṅg. This is a retreat from the modern world's pollution and materialism. We observe that modern comforts and money often lead to loss and dissatisfaction, unlike the simple, pure life here. The ashram fosters positive community, spiritual practice, and a return to natural living. It is a place for healing, happiness, and reconnecting with essential purity.

Be joyful
20:25 - 20:52 (27 min)
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."

Identification with the name
21:00 - 22:08 (68 min)
The autobiography of Viśva Gurujī has arrived. This book is a living blessing, containing his life in his own simple words. It is a tool for learning and a source of divine influence. The evening program will provide a full introduction. For now, consider this book a profound gift to be received and experienced.
Your yoga name is your second mantra, a divine replacement for your worldly name. A birth name ties you to the body and its karma, fostering ignorance. The master gives a name of God or divine qualities to shift this identification. To receive its power, you must use it and identify with it fully. A mantra or name unused is like a seed locked away, not planted. The name of God holds immense power, capable of transforming consciousness. Embrace this name as your true identification.
"In the dream, Mahāprabhujī told me, 'Don’t be greedy, Mahesh. Whatever I gave you, you must pass on. You are here to give, not to take.'"
"He called Nārāyaṇa, Nārāyaṇa, Nārāyaṇa. So he has to go to heaven. This is the power of God’s name."
