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."

Around the world - Opening of new YIDL center in Nadlac, Romania

Morning satsang with Vishwaguruji from Nadlac, Romania.
Yoga Nidra or bhajan singing is like meditation
3:45 - 5:00 (75 min)
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."

Muladhara chakra. Part one.
6:30 - 7:02 (32 min)
Your being in this world is more needed than you think. Yoga without spirituality is a body without a soul. Nothing in this world functions without a master, a guru who leads from darkness to light. This is true for material skills and is essential for spiritual guidance. Without it, you are lost. The initiation from a master provides the first awakening, like a jump-start for a dormant battery. Practice must follow theory. The human system is based on chakras, with the Mūlādhāra chakra as the root foundation. Its red color symbolizes concentrated earth energy. The lotus is a central symbol. It grows in muddy water but remains untouched by it, symbolizing that though we must incarnate in this worldly ocean to develop, we should rise above its temptations and quarrels. Realize your relation to the Supreme; that is true religion. Your duty is to serve, love, and let your consciousness unfold like a lotus, creating beauty. Do not wish to escape life; pray for the chance to serve and be a light.
"Guru means darkness, and Guru means light. He who leads us from the darkness of ignorance to the light of wisdom or knowledge is the guru."
"Oh Lord, if I have to stay in this world, then help me that I live in this world like a lotus in the water."

10:40 - 11:41 (61 min)
The five sheaths, from the physical to the bliss body, define our being and are shaped by our nourishment. The physical sheath, annamaya kośa, is formed from food. The energy sheath, prāṇamaya kośa, arises from that nourishment. The mental, wisdom, and bliss sheaths follow sequentially. What you consume determines your energy, mind, knowledge, and ultimate state. Modern habits have corrupted this natural order, replacing pure, sāttvic nourishment with harmful substances and actions, leading to disease and mental disturbance. A pure diet creates pure energy and a serene mind, guiding one toward true happiness. The path is obstructed by base desires and endless argument, which must be surrendered through attentive listening to divine guidance.
"Jaisā khāī annā, vaisā rahe man. What kind of nourishment or food you eat, like that will be your mind."
"Your nourishment, your energy, then your mentality, the mind."

We are a part of God
11:45 - 12:55 (70 min)
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."

The real Guru is in oneness
13:00 - 14:01 (61 min)
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."

Past is gone future is not here yet
14:05 - 14:49 (44 min)
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."

Instructions for mantra practicing
14:55 - 15:52 (57 min)
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."

Morning Yoga practice, Umag, Croatia (4/9)
16:00 - 17:26 (86 min)
A morning practice integrates physical postures with breath awareness to prepare the body and mind. Begin by lying down, interlocking fingers behind the head, and lifting the upper body with an exhalation to feel the back stretch. Move through sequences to stretch the shoulders, back, and legs, coordinating each movement with the breath. Practice lateral bends and forward folds with a straight spine. Engage the abdominal muscles with controlled leg lifts. Conclude with seated prāṇāyāma, focusing on alternate nostril breathing without counting cycles. Observe the natural breath flow and use a mantra to maintain focus, allowing thoughts to pass without analysis. Feel peace filling the heart with each breath.
"With every exhalation, try to deepen the position a little."
"Just enjoy the prāṇāyāma. We don’t have to count the cycles; we just relax and do prāṇāyāma."

The Effect of Karma on the Soul
17:30 - 18:11 (41 min)
The effect of karma on the soul is explained through the knowledge of a Trikāladarśī Master, who sees past, present, and future. A soul's deeds determine its journey. A story tells of a cobra that approached a Master. The Master revealed the cobra's soul was a former devotee who spoke ill of his guru, resulting in rebirth as a snake. The Master performed rites, liberated that soul, and instructed it to return human. Another story tells of a cruel tax collector. After death, his soul was reborn as a camel forced to carry heavy stones. A saint explained to the camel that the stones were the weight of its past karma against poor farmers. These examples show karma burdens the soul across lifetimes. Human life offers the chance to resolve karma through devotion, service, and right action. Otherwise, the soul carries its burdens into future births.
"These stones that have been placed on your back are not stones; they are the remnants of your karma."
"He knows all three times: what will happen, what has happened, what will be, and what is."

How to overcome the obstacles of practicing
19:15 - 20:33 (78 min)
The chakras contain immense power we must master, requiring guidance. From Mūlādhāra to Viśuddhi, these centers mix human and animal qualities. The Svādhiṣṭhāna generates waves of passion that can sweep us away. The Kuṇḍalinī lies dormant until awakened. The three nāḍīs—Iḍā, Piṅgalā, Suṣumṇā—wind left and right; when knowledge dawns, energy flows straight. A coiled snake represents the three guṇas, which pull us downward. Our desires create holes through which energy drains. The Maṇipūra Chakra is the seat of sound and fire. Viṣṇu resides in the navel, resting on the ocean of purity. Regular practice of prāṇāyāma like Bhastrikā and Kapālabhāti energizes the body from this center. Reading scriptures must move from intellect to heart. Knowledge requires daily churning and application over time.
"Strive for oneness, purity, without blemish. Do not stain your body."
"Our life may be ending, but we should not waste time. If we die today, let us use these minutes productively."

Yoga is a science
23:00 - 0:19 (79 min)
Yoga is the science of body, mind, consciousness, and soul, a universal principle of balance and harmony. Our subject is Kuṇḍalinī and the chakras, the hidden powers in human consciousness. The chakras are centers that receive and circulate cosmic energy through the body. We possess five bodies or layers: the physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and causal bodies. The causal body holds desires and the potential for divine bliss. The soul is a collection of karma and qualities; it does not dissolve until self-realization is attained. Chakras must be purified through mantra and practice for the Kuṇḍalinī to awaken safely. Without proper guidance, this awakening can cause imbalance and distress. Life is love, and love is God. Creating friendship and walking the path with love is essential. The world is a field of karma for development, yet one must remain detached like a lotus in muddy water. The first chakra, Mūlādhāra, is the root foundation. Its red color represents concentrated energy and the earth element. The lotus symbolizes remaining untouched by worldly temptations while fulfilling one's duty. The four petals represent the four aims of human life: dharma (duty), artha (wealth), kāma (righteous desires and progeny), and mokṣa (liberation).
"Yoga without spirituality is like a body without a soul; no achievement can take place without spirituality."
"If you protect your dharma, dharma will protect you."
