The Beauty of Unity: A Gathering in Strilky
0:10 - 1:09 (59 min)
Recorded on
The current pandemic reflects a shift in the Kali Yuga, serving as a consequence for human actions while highlighting the protection found in spiritual practice. This situation arose globally, uniquely affecting humanity, which may be linked to the widespread torture of animals. Those maintaining a sattvic lifestyle through vegetarianism, yoga, and meditation have remained largely unaffected. Spiritual gatherings create protective vibrations, safeguarding even those nearby. The era contains isolated realms of higher consciousness, akin to Satya Yuga, within the prevailing age. Various yoga paths exist, each valid and beautiful in their diversity, like different trees in a forest. True spiritual progress requires respecting all traditions while remaining steadfast in one's own guru lineage. The guru's light dispels all darkness for the sincere disciple. Our practice is structured in foundational stages, from nurturing children to advanced spiritual discipline, aligning with the development of the human sheaths. "Perhaps they prayed to God, 'God, why are you allowing this torture? Please, let humans suffer something in this Kali Yuga.' And it has come." "On the day you have fully accepted your guru, you become light. You can go anywhere there is darkness." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
I will be Thine
1:15 - 2:14 (59 min)

True devotion transcends all distance. Where there is pure love for the Divine, separation cannot exist. This love connects soul to soul, uniting the devotee with God. Physical proximity is irrelevant when bhakti is present; without it, even a neighbor feels distant. Spiritual practice maintains this permanent bond beyond the temporary body. Jealousy and fear arise from attachment and ignorance, creating separation. Most seek material gains, but human life is for realizing the soul. The seeker is already close to the ocean of consciousness, like a drop of water on a hand held above the sea. Do not wander far in search; the Divine is within. Practice with unwavering awareness and without doubt. "Where there is bhakti, where there is devotion, or where there is love, there is no distance." "Where are you searching me, my dear? I am with you." Filming location: Vienna, Austria
The main points of yoga practicing
2:20 - 4:08 (108 min)
Recorded on
Today is a day of honoring the sacred bond between brothers and sisters, observed on this full moon. Many festivals exist to unite people in joy and tradition. A story tells of a wise woman who, by tying a protective thread on a king's wrist, established him as her brother, thus creating this celebration. This thread signifies a pure familial bond, transforming relationships into that of siblings, beyond marital consideration. Such traditions maintain peace and respect within communities. Our well-being is also deeply connected to living in harmony with natural cycles. Consuming foods in their proper season, as provided by nature, is essential for health, unlike modern habits which lead to illness. Physical movement through yoga āsanas is the foundation of health, preparing the body for the vital practice of prāṇāyāma. This breath work balances the subtle energy channels, known as nāḍīs, and is central to the holistic path of Yoga in Daily Life. The practice must be gentle and gradual, following a structured system to avoid harm and cultivate lasting well-being. "At that time, women and girls were worshipped more. Now it is not so here, but this festival, this day, remains." "One should not overdo. Therefore, the practice should be peaceful. In our 'Yoga in Daily Life' book, everything is written from beginning to end." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

We need purification
5:20 - 6:14 (54 min)
Recorded on
Purification requires sustained personal effort and grace, not mere ritual practice. Many perform techniques for decades without profound experience because inner work remains undone. The soul is like a cloth colored by worldly actions or divine name. Purification is an alchemical process requiring the heat of dedicated practice. Do not blame others; you alone must cleanse your heart. The world stains this cloth constantly. Self-effort is essential, but a master's direct transmission acts as a crucial injection, enabling real absorption. Your inner state is fragile yet can become resilient like a pure crystal that repels dust. True practice means coloring your being with divine consciousness through unwavering, heartfelt repetition of the sacred name. "First, we must purify. The more we put it through heat, the more its purity emerges." "You need an injection from the Master. From the heart, you should have a constant injection, and that is your practice."

We need a boat to cross the ocean
6:20 - 7:25 (65 min)
Recorded on
Satsang is the boat to cross the ocean of worldly illusion. This gathering connects you to divine energy through remembrance of saints and divine figures, just as typing a name summons a specific video. Your thoughts create immediate light or darkness; positive thinking enlightens, while negative thinking poisons. When leading satsang, one must speak as an instrument of the divine, not from ego. The divine light dwells in every heart; no heart is empty. Enter the boat with trust, and the captain will guide you to the shore. If you dwell in doubt while present, you will not taste the nectar of wisdom. Centers of practice exist worldwide; welcome all seekers with love, not conditions. Love unites; jealousy divides. The festival of lights celebrates the divine light entering the world, a blissful dawn from darkness. This light is the same across all traditions; seeing difference is duality. The divine smile is an expression of this light, attracting naturally like a beautiful flower. A mantra, seated within, becomes a light of wisdom, confidence, and love, awakening one from ignorance. Practice with faith, without doubt. "Sab ghaṭ mera sanyā, koī ghaṭ khālī naye. In every heart my God is dwelling, no heart is empty." "Gurudev takes upon himself the destiny of the devotees." Filming location: Vienna, Austria
Bhajan singing from Jadan Ashram
7:30 - 8:05 (35 min)
Recorded on
The refuge lies at the divine feet. By taking refuge there, one experiences supreme truth and bliss, becoming free from the cycle of birth and death. The mind finds its steady path. The Vedas and Puranas sing of this refuge. True devotion and knowledge lead to liberation. The divine name itself brings supreme happiness. The true Guru is incomparable. "Charaṇamme Arasattati Ratahe, Vohela Purāṇamme Gāte." "Mannava Dhire Dhire Chalga, Gaṅgā Charanare Bai." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Bhajan Singing from Jadan
8:10 - 9:20 (70 min)
Recorded on
A musical offering explores devotion through raga and sacred verse. The performance weaves classical composition with devotional poetry. It presents the longing of Meera, who found divine nectar in poison. It shares Kabir's metaphor of the body as a finely woven garment dyed in divine essence. The inquiry asks who truly comes and goes in this world of light and illusion. The teaching asserts that only the true Guru's name endures, while all else is transient. The offering culminates in universal salutations to the divine in all forms. "Rana ne vish diya, mano amrit piya. Mira saagar me sarita samaane lagi." "Santa, kun re āve re, kun jāye bole re? Jaari khabar karo." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic.
To be independent
10:10 - 11:24 (74 min)
Recorded on
The Guru's grace liberates the soul from worldly bondage. Without the true Guru, one cannot cross the ocean of existence. The Guru incarnates to lead beings from darkness to light, granting independence from the cycle of birth and death. Trust in the Guru's name provides protection and leads to liberation, as illustrated by a disciple whose faith allowed him to survive mortal dangers. Conversely, jealousy is a destructive fire that consumes from within. True freedom is not merely political but liberation from inner enemies like desire, anger, and attachment. Worldly conflicts stem from animalistic ambitions awakening in humans. Lasting peace requires wisdom, compassion, and the removal of these negative qualities through divine remembrance. "Without the grace of the Guru, you cannot cross the ocean of the world and reach liberation." "O Lord, liberate me gently... and lead me to immortality." Filming locations: Jadan Ashram, Rajasthan, India.
Repeat the name of Gurudev
11:30 - 11:57 (27 min)
Recorded on
The human birth is a rare and urgent opportunity. The scriptures and all aspects of existence point to a single imperative. The sole necessity is to fix the mind upon the Guru's name. This precious human form is exceedingly difficult to obtain again. One must become truly human in this very moment. By being steadfast in this practice, the vision of the true Self is attained. Do not waste this fleeting chance. "Oh lamp of qualities, Hari, fix your mind on the Guru’s name. This opportunity will not come again; be human." "This is the totality of knowledge: to be human."

Find your Shelter near Gurudev
14:30 - 15:49 (79 min)
Recorded on
The seeker's path requires unwavering concentration and balance, like walking a tightrope or a crane standing on one leg in water. Human life is a rare opportunity for this learning. The journey involves cycles, represented by the numbers one through nine, leading back to zero to begin again. Worldly attachments and happiness are transient, like messages in a ring stating "this will also go." True progress comes from Guru's grace, which purifies the seeker through and through, not merely by external signs. The Divine Mother, as Kuṣmāṇḍā, generated the universe from a cosmic egg with her smile, creating the trinity of Mahākālī, Mahālakṣmī, and Mahāsarasvatī. Liberation while living is possible, but it requires removing the cycle of birth and death to avoid the torment of cosmic dissolution. "This will also go. This will go." "I have colored you already. This cloth to color is nothing, but I have colored you completely through and through." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Longing for God
17:40 - 18:39 (59 min)
Recorded on
Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Rijeka Ashram, Croatia. Bhajan singing. We should be careful with our bodies and we should live very healthily. Our practice is very important and also our good food. We are really yogis. We have learnt many things that are really important in yoga. Real yogis should practise yoga every day. We help other people to become spiritual. Some people eat cats and kill them in a very cruel way. We should feel every creature in our hearts. The story of a man who wanted to see God. The story of an Indian lady living near Rupavas who became a holy person. The other story is of a woman in Gujarat who doesn't eat and doesn't drink anything.
The Seed of Practice
18:45 - 19:10 (25 min)
Recorded on
Faithful practice is the seed of attainment. Humans suffer greatly from their relationships and have abused nature beyond even animals, becoming the most developed yet most troubled creature. Intellectual knowledge alone is insufficient; devoted practice is essential. A story illustrates this: two brothers pursued different paths—one intellectual knowledge, the other devotional practice. The intellectual brother criticized the devotee's ritual errors. Later, seeing the devotee walk on water through pure faith, the intellectual realized his own knowledge was hollow. He was told the key is a pure heart in practice, not perfect technique, just as a seed grows regardless of how it is sown if the soil is good. Do not waste time in deliberation; practice faithfully with what you have. "Too much reading also leads you nowhere. It’s only intellectual information. Therefore, practicing is very important." "When you will pray with a pure heart, a good heart, if your mantra is pronounced correctly or incorrectly... The fruits will be there." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
Dharma
20:25 - 21:14 (49 min)
Recorded on
Human life is for service and self-realization without making differences. The ego tests whether one becomes a true devotee. Division in the name of God creates conflict. The system of life begins with Brahmacharya, focused on study. Family life requires fulfilling duties to protect children; divorce causes them great harm. Vānaprastha is detachment, giving everything to children. Sannyāsa is final renunciation. One must renounce all family attachment, never return home, and see the world as family. The orange cloth signifies living in the fire of discipline. Without true detachment, one fails. Sannyāsīs must maintain purity, avoid householder homes, and follow strict rules. Outer appearance means nothing without inner realization. "That one is dear to me who treats enemy and friends equally." "Unless we do not master this, we have to go again and again, die and be born." Filming location: Fiji Islands

Haṭha Yoga is a supreme path requiring correct practice. The techniques of nauli and basti are essential for purifying the digestive system. A proper diet is foundational: eat vegetarian meals every five to six hours, leaving space in the stomach, and fast overnight. This physical purification supports the higher goal where the conscious self masters the body, not the reverse. True practice transcends mere physical techniques or brief study; it demands lifelong guidance from a genuine master. Theoretical knowledge alone is insufficient, like holding a speck of dust compared to the mountain of practical wisdom. The aim is complete independence, where one desires nothing, not even from the divine. "Leave space for solid food, liquid food, and what we call liquid—also water. Give the stomach some empty space." "If you want to give me something, then I wish you would just go away from here." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
How to train our mind?
22:55 - 23:16 (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
Without work, nothing can happen

The origin of life and the path of dharma are revealed through ancient wisdom. In the beginning, there was only water. The gods decided to create the earth, which was brought forth from the ocean. Life emerged from the waters, with creatures evolving and moving onto land. The principle of existence was established: all living beings sustain themselves by consuming other life. This is the natural law. From this state, humans were created. With humanity came the knowledge of dharma and adharma. Dharma is to live spiritually, to care for all and avoid killing. Adharma is to live like animals, consuming without conscience, which bars the path to the divine. The human form and consciousness ultimately originate from the divine source, symbolized by the navel of Vishnu and the emerging lotus. One must not depend on others but become self-reliant, as God provides everything. Practice sādhanā, see all as equal, and live without harming others. Consider the impact of your consumption and actions on the world. "Jīv, jīv, bhakṣate: all living life, they are eating each other." "Dharma is spirituality and good, not killing anyone. Take care of everyone." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
