Atma is spotless
0:45 - 1:31 (46 min)
Recorded on
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." "Ask anything. He said, 'Okay, if you want to ask me anything, then get up.' What he said to Shiva, 'Go from here.'" Filming location: Dungog, New South Wales, Australia
The health of the bones
1:35 - 2:27 (52 min)
Recorded on
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. "Give this to all your friends and everybody for Christmas." "Holy means the clean and have a good energy." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Respect is important
2:35 - 3:28 (53 min)
Recorded on
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." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
The spiritual family
3:35 - 4:26 (51 min)
Recorded on
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. "Take the pearls, take the milk, and leave the water." "Our meditation and practice are not about running away but about taking a timeout before returning to the game." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
Yoga, Āyurveda, and the Journey Beyond: From Vikāra to Turīya
4:30 - 5:25 (55 min)
Recorded on
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." Filming location: Auckland, New Zealand
Do not waste your human life
5:30 - 6:30 (60 min)
Recorded on
Dharma is the path of righteousness, while adharma is its opposite. We each have a personal duty to follow. Jealousy and ego divert us from this path. Dharma protects those who protect it. In the Mahabharata, Arjuna was conflicted about fighting his family, but Krishna instructed him to uphold dharma by opposing adharma. Divine incarnations occur to restore dharma when evil prevails. The current Kali Yuga is still early; a time will come when dharma nearly vanishes. Human birth is a rare blessing after passing through millions of life forms. What we do with this life determines our future. Four blessings are essential: divine grace, scripture, the Guru, and self-effort. The Guru's grace is paramount, guiding and protecting, but we must take the initiative. We must follow the Guru's instruction without logic, as the Guru sees past, present, and future. Calm the mind and let thoughts pass without engaging them. Cultivate contentment and avoid greed. Students should embody five qualities: the crow's determination, the crane's concentration, the dog's alert sleep, eating little, and living away from home for discipline. Be in the company of truth, satsang, which brings lasting happiness. Fulfill your duty to yourself first, then to others. Do not give up; the Guru protects the disciple eternally. Perform selfless service without desire for recognition. Surrender fully. Do not dwell on the past or future; reside in the present. Use the tools given—mantra, meditation, satsang—to attain inner peace. "Dharma rakṣati rakṣitaḥ." He who protects dharma, dharma protects him. "Karma karte ro, phal kī cintā mat karo." Perform your duty; do not worry about the result. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Real stories about Sri Mahaprabhuji
5:30 - 6:14 (44 min)
Recorded on
The guru's grace manifests as foresight and transformative power, transcending human limitations. A master once foretold of gold within distant hills, a prophecy met with confusion. Decades later, precious stone was discovered precisely there, causing conflict as predicted. In another village, the master instructed the digging of a well. While all other wells run dry, this one remains perpetually full of sweet water. A saint once willingly took on a disciple's physical ailment, embodying selfless love. Our capacity to affect others is not limited by physical distance. A negative vibration, like insults from a tribe that can kill a tree, carries power. Similarly, a person's inner peace or turmoil subtly influences any environment. The key is to become a clear channel. Do not attempt to generate this force yourself. The master transforms the divine current into a voltage the disciple can bear. Become a pure instrument through dedicated practice and mantra. Calm the mind's fluctuations to allow that light to flow through you to those in need. "There’s gold in those hills. It’s full of gold." "Since the time they dug that well, it didn’t matter if every other well in the area was dry; that one had never been dry." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
The real Human
6:15 - 7:01 (46 min)
Recorded on
The unity of all life encompasses every soul, from the largest creature to the invisible microbe. Different cultures and landscapes exist, yet all life is interconnected. Yoga practices like āsana are not enough; one must elevate other lives by becoming lower in oneself. The earth is entirely living, full of unseen beings. The spiritual journey involves moving from the root chakra upward and downward in a cycle, not seeking only height. True human quality is found in humility and service, not in jealousy or anger. The majority of people are essentially good and generous. The body is a temple containing the divine and all life, so one must avoid harming even the smallest creatures. "We should go to other souls, other jīvas, other bodies, other lives. We should become lower in ourselves and let all others come up." "In your whole world, any country, any religion, you have so many good people." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
How to train our mind?
7:05 - 7:26 (21 min)
Recorded on
The mind is restless and must be tamed. A king had a horse no one could ride. Many trainers failed by forcing it. A wise trainer did not force it. He simply followed the horse everywhere, building association. He let the horse come to him. Then he rewarded it with grass and slowly introduced a blanket. Eventually, he gently climbed on while petting it. The horse accepted him. The training took over a year through patient trust. Our mind is like that horse. Let it run; that is its nature. Do not force it. Slowly train it towards devotion. When it calms, it will return. Grace makes this training possible. "The trainer was different. He took the horse and simply let it be." "Slowly, slowly, train your mind towards Guru Bhakti." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Bhajan singing in the presence of Vishwaguruji
7:30 - 9:05 (95 min)
Recorded on
The divine lineage is invoked and praised, its grace and power are extolled. The Guru is the root of meditation, worship, mantra, and spiritual attainment. The gathering is reminded of practical conduct. The supreme Lord bestows happiness, wealth, and removes all obstacles and diseases for the devoted. The one who longs for the divine is liberated from sins. The heart is awakened by the Guru's light, dispelling darkness forever. "Meditation's root is the Guru's form, worship's root is the Guru's feet, mantra's root is the Guru's word, attainment's root is the Guru's grace." "The one who has His darshan, his sins are washed away. The one who longs for Him, his sins are washed away." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Inner awakening: be with the dharma
11:40 - 12:27 (47 min)
Recorded on
The inner awakening reveals the hidden powers within consciousness. The creator fashioned 8.4 million beings, each entering through distinct gateways like sweat, womb, or egg. The individual soul travels through limitless space, entering our solar system to become a citizen of Earth, taking birth according to its karma in forms from bacteria to humans. From the perspective of the Ātmā, the divine light, all are one—it is unbreakable, everlasting, formless, and spotless. The individual soul, or Jīvātmā, is a mixture of this Ātmā and the non-self. Duality exists only when identified with the individual form. In human form, this Jīvātmā is shaped by karma. Performing good deeds makes one a dharmātmā, a soul of righteousness, where sin is overshadowed. Committing wrongs makes one a pāpātmā, a sinner destined for suffering. Both heaven and hell are experienced on this Earth according to one's actions. Humans possess the mighty tool of intellect, given for protection, yet it is often used for destruction. The essential power is divine love, without which nothing spiritual is attained. "One in all and all in one. That is the reflection of that Ātmā." "Lord, God doesn't come without love. You can try a thousand things, but God will not come without love." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Listen to only ourselves and our Gurudev
13:25 - 14:05 (40 min)
Recorded on
A true holiday is for inner contemplation, not external distraction. Ancient seekers valued solitude to reflect on life and meditate. Modern holidays often involve noise and escapism, which drown the inner voice. Spiritual progress requires revitalizing the mind through satsang and the Guru's presence. This gathering is an opportunity for solitary reflection amidst community. Utilize this time to recharge spiritual energy and leave worldly concerns behind. Unity with spiritual family provides essential support in this age. "To progress in spirituality, we need inner evolution. The only way for that is to be in satsang, to have darśan with a self-realized person, a Guru, and to be in peace." "If we want to quit a bad habit, we need a support group and must be that support for each other." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Don't kill Animals!
14:55 - 15:53 (58 min)
Recorded on
Disease arises from internalizing life's pressures, not from external forces themselves. This internal stress creates bodily pressure, a primary cause of illness. Inherited conditions also exist. The path of yoga integrates simple postures, breath control, and meditation into daily life, alongside dietary and sleep adjustments. Meditation must be approached correctly. Never strain the eyes upward, as this causes psychic problems and blocks progress. Focus gently downward or on the tip of the nose. True guidance comes from a living tradition, not solely from books. Many established religions have become blocked, relying on scripture without the living presence of the divine. The divine is within each being; every creature possesses a soul. The supreme principle is non-violence. Harming other living beings, including animals, creates suffering and negative consequences. Liberation requires aligning with this truth through compassionate living and correct inner practice. "Slowly, this internal pressure becomes the cause of many, many diseases." "Therefore, the meditation is called Nāsik, focusing on the tip of the nose. Our eyes should look gently downward." Filming location: Auckland, New Zealand
Practicing from Strilky
16:00 - 17:31 (91 min)
Recorded on
A guided practice for relaxation and movement through precise physical alignment and breath. Lie down comfortably. Stabilize the lower back on the mat. Place arms beside the body with palms facing upward. Make the neck long. Keep legs together. Breathe with long, full yoga breaths. Movement must be synchronized and without personal initiative. Only move arms when instructed. Do not arch the lower back. Practice involves raising and lowering arms and legs with the breath. The core practice consists of mantra, bhajan, and sitting. Close the eyes and follow the count together. Do not use your own mind. "Be guru-mukhī and not man-mukhī." "Only mantra, bhajan, and sitting—only these three points we have to practice very nicely."

We have to become one
17:35 - 19:09 (94 min)
Recorded on
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."

God is everywhere
19:15 - 20:56 (101 min)
Recorded on
The sixth day of Navarātri honors the goddess Kātyāyanī, who embodies supreme power and devotion. Kātyāyanī was born from the combined energies of the gods to defeat the demon Mahiṣāsura. The sage Kātyāyana performed intense austerities, and the goddess incarnated as his daughter. All deities bestowed their weapons upon her, making her the slayer of Mahiṣāsura, known as Mahiṣāsuramardinī. She is the most powerful of the nine forms, easily evoked for protection from all negativity. Worship is an act of devotion that awakens divine qualities within. True worship requires preparation, humility, and aligns with one's own nature, ultimately leading to the Guru's essence, which contains everything. "She is the most powerful out of all the nine avatars, and she is the one who kills the most powerful demon." "Worship means we approach certain qualities, we awaken certain qualities in our worship, in our pūjā, in us, in ourself." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
The Four Aspects of Grace and the Path to Self-Love
21:00 - 21:33 (33 min)
Recorded on
The four aspects of Kṛpā illuminate the path to self-love. Deva Kṛpā is the mercy of the gods, granting the human incarnation necessary for liberation. Śāstra Kṛpā is the mercy of the holy scriptures, which contain the teachings of the gurus. Guru Kṛpā is the mercy given by the guru, triggered by the disciple's devotion and service. Kuṭkī Kṛpā is the mercy one gives to oneself. This self-love is not ego, which is a low vibration of taking, but a high vibration of giving. Many avoid self-love, fearing it is ego, yet one cannot truly love others without loving oneself. A practical form is sending loving, healing energy to one's own body, which can have profound physical effects. The process to cultivate this begins with self-acceptance, proceeds through self-understanding via inquiry, and culminates in the desire to give and forgive oneself. This inner work is essential for spiritual growth. "Love each and every living being, if not more, then at least as much as yourself." "We cannot really love others if we don’t love ourselves."

Shiva and Shakti
21:00 - 21:55 (55 min)
Recorded on
The essential unity of Śiva and Śakti is the divine model for human relationships, now obscured in the Kali Yuga. This age is marked by darkness and separation, where humanity destroys nature and families break apart. Śiva first existed as a singular, complete being. From his left side, he manifested Śakti, the feminine power. They are one and equal. A story illustrates their inseparable bond: when Śakti died, Śiva carried her body into space, refusing to return, threatening creation. Their union represents perfect, lifelong commitment. Today, marriages dissolve, causing suffering. This is the sin of the Kali Yuga, a departure from the eternal unity exemplified by the divine pair. Spiritual practice requires serious vows, like Viṣṇu’s offering to Śiva, demonstrating total dedication. The dispersed pieces of Śakti’s body became sacred sites of power, requiring pure and disciplined worship. This power is immense and not to be approached lightly. "Male and female are one, and they have immense respect for each other." "Either you should marry and sustain it, or you should not." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
