Yoga Nidra or bhajan singing is like meditation
0:25 - 1:40 (75 min)
Recorded on
The yogi's conscious sleep is a state of awakened rest known only to rare, accomplished beings. In this sleep, one remains inwardly aware, turning night into day. It is a sleep of alertness, not unconsciousness. This practice transcends ordinary relaxation, which is often misunderstood. Common yoga relaxation is mistakenly called the corpse pose, implying death. It should be understood as the bliss pose, representing fullness of life. The practice must be inclusive, free from sectarian symbols so all may benefit. True relaxation means being so profoundly at peace that no external disturbance, like a cobra crossing your path, can create inner agitation. The body rests, but consciousness remains luminous and awake. "In that sleep, one remains awake and turns night into day." "This sleep is known only to the rare, accomplished being."

We are a part of God
1:45 - 2:55 (70 min)
Recorded on
Yoga is one unified path, though taught under many names. It extends far beyond physical postures to encompass the entire life force and consciousness. The practice integrates all aspects of nature, as seen in the 84 traditional āsanas inspired by animals and elements. This discipline is lifelong, like the breath itself, and aims to balance the body's five principles with nature. The ultimate goal is for the individual soul, or jīva, to realize its divine nature and ascend to the highest cosmic consciousness, ending the cycle of rebirth among the 8.4 million life forms. While worldly knowledge progresses outwardly, the yogi's path is an inward journey to the Self. All creatures possess the will to live, and humans must recognize the divine Ātmā within themselves and all beings, moving from identifying with the limited drop to merging with the boundless ocean. "Yoga is not only physical, for the physical body, or just breath and concentration, etc. Yoga is very far-reaching." "Your soul, your ātmā in you is your God." Filming location: Slovenia

Shivaratri Satsang with Vishwaguruji
3:45 - 4:20 (35 min)
Recorded on
We are the essence of Śiva, Śakti, and the Guru. From primordial space emerged three elements: space, air, and fire, associated with Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. Śiva and Śakti are one unified power, with Śakti as the dynamic force and Śiva as the conscious principle, manifesting as duality within a single body. This power is in all things. The five elements—water, earth, fire, air, and space—are alive and conscious. Our individual ātmā is like a drop from the ocean of universal consciousness; we are never separate. Everyone is a guru, as a guru is one who imparts knowledge, from a parent to a teacher. All spiritual paths and rituals, like holy water, connect to this one power. Do not reject helpers like doctors, for we may need them. True knowledge unites the scientist and the spiritual guru. "Śiva and Śakti, Śakti is the power, great, everything, and the other is that Śiva." "We are all one, and we have one heart here and our ātmā here." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Linz, Austria. An instrument is a simple construction, but it can give very beautiful sounds. Our body is also like an instrument. We are free to do good or bad things. From our childhood we can develop in good or bad direction also. The story of a tiger baby who mixed among the sheeps. Everybody should know why we shouldn't to eat meat. Bhajan singing.

Miracles are in our service
6:20 - 7:35 (75 min)
Recorded on
The grace of the Guru manifests through selfless service and faith, not the pursuit of miracles. A true teacher serves all without distinction. After a gathering, the teacher ensured latecomers were fed first, personally serving them sweet food. In another instance, a small amount of food was made to feed hundreds after the teacher covered the pot with a shawl, demonstrating that faith provides abundance. "When you have all eaten and your stomach is full, my stomach is also full." "Why are you thinking that we don’t have? We have, Guru has." Miracles occur naturally around the sanctified but are not to be sought. A story tells of a man healed of leprosy through an herbal purgative and a mantra. He later, through simple faith in that herb, helped others find lost animals, reconcile a marriage, and even cause an invading army to retreat by serving them the same purgative. This illustrates that devoted service itself is the miracle. Seeking special powers leads to difficulty. "They don’t make miracles, but the miracle is there." Contentment and selfless action are the true paths. Hold to the teachings. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
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

Yoga Nidra: The Yogi's Conscious Sleep
10:35 - 11:26 (51 min)
Recorded on
Yoga Nidra is a state of conscious sleep, a deep relaxation with full awareness. Prepare by finding a comfortable position to remain motionless. Begin by forming a Śaṅkalpa, a positive resolve for yourself and others, repeating it three times. Relax the body completely through a detailed scan from the toes to the crown of the head. Bring awareness to the breath, feeling the prāṇa flow in the abdomen, chest, and throat. Listen to the inner sound of the breath, so'ham. Conclude by reaffirming your Śaṅkalpa three times, then gradually return awareness to the body and the surroundings. "Try to remain motionless throughout the entire practice, not moving, while at the same time staying awake and not falling asleep." "Relax completely, but remain fully aware, conscious of the energy flow." Filming location: Vienna, Austria
Our heart is very great
11:30 - 12:03 (33 min)
Recorded on
The primordial sound Oṁ connects all humanity through its varied pronunciations across traditions. Scriptures state the universe began with this sound. As it traveled, the vibration transformed into "Amen" and "Āmīn" in other faiths, revealing a universal connection. This symbol is a gift for all mankind. A restless mind is like a monkey snatching a banana. The struggle continues as long as one holds on. The teaching is to let go. Place the banana down; the monkey takes it peacefully and calms down. Similarly, stop wrestling with thoughts. Surrender them. Practices like meditation and devotion slow the mind. A peaceful mind resides in the present, reducing stress and increasing bliss. True peace comes from surrendering all expectations to the Master. "The easiest option is to let go, put it down, and allow the mind to become peaceful." "Gurudev, you do what you are doing."

Questions and answers from Debrecen
12:10 - 12:50 (40 min)

A yogic path integrates self-sufficient living with disciplined practice. Begin a farm with both greenhouse and organic garden crops, developing it from a hobby into a community offering yoga retreats. The first spiritual step is dietary control: consume limited, home-prepared meals without sweets or junk food. Fast for four to five hours between meals, consuming only water. This discipline eliminates most bodily difficulties, strengthens immunity, and supports meditation, which requires a mantra. Prāṇāyāma cleanses physical diseases, and satsaṅg with virtuous friends is essential. Avoid all intoxicants, as they embody destructive energies. Prefer local, seasonal, organic produce; soy is nutritious only if organic. Raw milk is healthful, but regulations sometimes adulterate it. True practice requires organizing life around these principles. "Meditation without a mantra is a body without a soul." "Prāṇāyāma will tell them, 'Get out of this body! What are you doing here?'"

Karma and koshas
12:55 - 13:51 (56 min)
Recorded on
The aim of human life is to realize the soul and return to God. The soul undergoes cycles of birth and death, experiencing the astral world and various forms of life, from vegetation to human birth. Human life is a difficult journey where one must navigate consequences, or karma, for all actions. The intellect is a powerful tool, but it must connect the brain to the heart. Causing suffering to any creature creates pain that returns. Life in all realms is challenging, and one must strive for liberation from this cycle. The physical body is the first sheath, the annamaya kośa, sustained by pure nourishment. The second sheath is the prāṇamaya kośa, the energy body vitalized by breath. "Do not go against the nature. Otherwise, you will have consequences." "When we create difficulties for someone, the pain will reflect to us, much more than that one is suffering." Filming location: Alexandria, USA
We need Gurudev
13:55 - 14:49 (54 min)
Recorded on
The disciple must never abandon the need for the guru or the teachings, for that is the gravest error. The guru is the principle that leads from ignorance to knowledge. This Guru Tattva is the essential diamond, not the physical form, yet it is embodied to provide tangible guidance. God aids the seeker by sending the guru, who is thus revered as indispensable. The aim is to merge the individual self with the cosmic Self, like a river entering the ocean. This is the Advaita understanding, where the one supreme reality is reflected in all individuals. This merging is the true purpose of yoga, achieved through the guru's grace and teachings. The embodied form concentrates this divine energy, making darśana transformative. The state beyond the three guṇas is inexpressible; it can only be pointed to as 'not this, not that.' "The moment you think you know everything, very soon you will find yourself asking, 'Where are the bricks? Where is the parachute?'" "God will send your friend with the boat. And the Guru is here."

Prana and pranayam
14:55 - 15:42 (47 min)

The science of prāṇāyāma addresses the profound pollution of our existence. Prāṇa, the vital energy, is managed through three processes: Pūrak (inhalation), Rechak (exhalation), and Kumbhak (retention). Sanskrit, the language of this science, resonates deeply, expanding consciousness. Our existence relies on the five elements, with the earth as a nurturing mother who forgives our pollution. Yet now, her forgiveness is strained by our actions. We poison the outer earth—its waters and air—and then our own bodies with toxins and disease. The worst pollution is mental, leading to violence and ignorance. Yoga is designed for this. It is the first science, integrating our five bodies—physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and blissful. Success in yoga comes through karma, selfless action, but is opposed by the great enemy: laziness. The fire of yoga practice burns away all karmic seeds. Prāṇāyāma is more crucial than physical postures; it purifies and protects. It begins by balancing the psychic channels: the left nostril (Chandra, the moon) calms emotions, and the right (Sūrya, the sun) clarifies intellect. This purification of the nāḍīs is the primary tool for deep meditation and strength. "To pollute the earth is a sin. It means you pollute Mother Earth." "The most dangerous pollution is in the human mind." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
Morning Yoga practice, Umag, Croatia (9/9)
16:00 - 17:14 (74 min)
Recorded on
A morning sādhana sequence integrates breath, movement, and awareness. Begin by warming the body with gentle stretches and deep breathing. Practice foundational āsanas like Pavanamuktāsana and Marjaryāsana to activate the spine and muscles. Flow through a warming sequence, coordinating each motion with inhalation and exhalation. Perform forward bends and backbends, focusing on alignment and the stretch without pain. Incorporate inverted postures to affect circulation and glands. Conclude with prāṇāyāma to regulate energy and a period of silent observation. The practice strengthens the body, deepens the breath, and calms the mind. "Marjaryāsana is a wonderful morning āsana, stretching your back muscles and activating your spine." "Observe your breath, and feel the effects of the āsanas." Filming location: Umag, Croatia
The real Guru is in oneness
17:20 - 18:21 (61 min)
Recorded on
Devotion is a singular reality, expressed through many names and forms. The genuine saint or deity does not demand exclusive worship, for the divine essence is one. All human distinctions of country, color, or language are ultimately irrelevant. We gather to sing and remember this unity, honoring the lineage of teachers who point toward it. Each moment of life is profoundly precious, like a bullet fired that cannot be recalled. Our vital energy, or prāṇa, is the very force of life and feeling within the body. To concentrate on this prāṇa is to connect with the divine source. The spiritual journey requires great purity, akin to walking a sharp edge. Our inner negativity can cause regression, while cultivating oneness leads toward merging with the infinite, like a drop returning to the ocean. All external religious forms are like different names for the same water; the essence is one. "Because the real one is in oneness. If any God were to say, 'Do not worship this other God,' then neither is that God right, nor are you good for following such a command." "Your heart should be my heart. Your mind should be my mind. Feelings must be my feelings, everything." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
Instructions for mantra practicing

The disciple's joy depends solely on the guru's grace. The guru's blessings are transmitted through a living master or the enduring spiritual presence of the lineage. A true disciple follows the Satguru without question, maintaining a dedicated personal practice. The physical lineage chair represents the eternal guru principle. Spiritual progress requires surrendering worldly attachments and mental fixations, as the story illustrates where avoiding a physical touch fostered a mental obsession. The goal is a merger where all distinctions dissolve. Practice regularly but without neglecting worldly duties. "Many people may not understand. They think that if their guru is not physically present anymore, they must have some other guru." "If Gurudev says something and we say, 'No, it is not good,' then we have gone to the other side."

Past is gone future is not here yet
20:30 - 21:14 (44 min)
Recorded on
The path is to be present, letting go of past and future. You have practiced and received knowledge. Our way is to be relaxed and normal, not straining or focusing oddly. What we seek is to know the Self. We follow a given path but must understand it ourselves. We are human with knowledge, yet we do not know what comes after this life. Do not dwell on the past; it is gone like an exhale. We often live in memories or future thoughts, not in the present. Suffering in the present will not last. We must come into our heart and thoughts to be one. Forget the past; your future path will be good. What you have now is here; do not lose it by grasping for more. "Do not meditate and concentrate on what is gone; learning is gone." "The past is gone. The present is here. But you think, 'In the future, I will also get this.' But you will not get it."
