Decoration expresses love for the divine, reflecting beauty into our consciousness. Hinduism is a religion of happiness, seeking prosperity and joy for all. We adorn our altars because all beautiful things belong to God, and we wish to see the divine in comfort and splendor. Our rituals and offerings are ultimately for our own benefit, as God desires only our love and inner feeling. The physical world is mortal and ever-changing; therefore, pray for the immortal, not for transient things. Do not dwell on the past or future, but be conscious of the present to create a beautiful future. Your destiny is like a shadow you cannot outrun, yet you must cultivate beautiful thoughts and actions. The guru's elevated seat is both a practical aid for vision and a symbol of the disciple's greater spiritual mastery.
"God just is hungry for the love, the bhāva, your inner feeling."
"Pray for the immortal. From the mortal to the immortal."

We have to become one
1:15 - 2:49 (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."

Introduction to Jadan Ashram

Detachment and Liberation
4:00 - 5:11 (71 min)
Life is obtained, but how should one live it? The human lifespan is divided into quarters for study, family, society, and final liberation. The ladder for this is Dharma, Artha, Kāma, and Mokṣa. The personality has perishable and immortal parts. The soul travels; the body has its lineage from five elements. We know only the physical body, but mind, intellect, and soul are reflected within it. The time in hand is always short. Only the present can be used. Be fully present with any task, such as eating. Concentrated eating alone can transform life and direct desires. The universe is made from Agni and Soma, a chain from the sun to rain to crops. The food we eat transforms through seven stages in the body, ultimately affecting desires and procreation. We have four components: body, mind, intellect, and soul. Everything is created from sound vibrations. Mantra practice moves from spoken sound to inner, formless repetition, a path to the soul. The mind is difficult to control as it is a reflection. Withdrawing from the world turns the senses inward. Detachment from all perishable things allows one to live in the present. In married life, man and woman are complementary halves, perfecting each other. Man is outwardly fiery, inwardly cool Soma; woman is outwardly cool, inwardly fiery. Their union is a stage of creation. Over 25 years, the wife shapes the husband, ultimately creating an aversion to turn him toward society and spiritual goals. The mother is the first teacher, shaping the soul in the womb. The final goal is enlightenment.
"Today is the answer of life. I must use my present."
"The woman is the creator of the world. She creates the man before she gives birth to the child."

Everything is in your hands
5:15 - 5:50 (35 min)
The initiation of eight sannyāsīs was a highlight. The Master decides readiness; these were not easy individuals, each a long effort to guide. One is profoundly honest, immediately embodying the role. Another prepared for decades through hardship. Three were from Australia, one from Israel, and one Indian who left too quickly. The final one is a devoted and humble soul. Your spiritual progress is ultimately in your own hands. Teachers and masters can only support you; the decisive action is yours. A story illustrates this: disciples, jealous of their Master, trap a bird and ask if it is alive or dead. The Master replies its fate is in their hands. Your liberation, like the bird's life, depends on your decisions. Do not delay in good actions. Regarding dress, disciples should wear white; sannyāsīs wear orange. Becoming a sannyāsī is serious, not a fashion; it helps carry the spiritual light but requires true readiness and independence.
"Master, if you know everything, then tell us what is in my hand."
"My son, whether this bird is alive or dead depends on your hands."

The Pearl of Everlasting Bliss
5:55 - 6:16 (21 min)
Life's deepest treasure is complete and everlasting bliss, the crown of self-realization rooted in God-realization. Rare beings attain this pearl of Paramānanda. A seeker's deep prayer brought him face-to-face with his divine master, seeing the form of Śrī Kṛṣṇa. He became a true disciple, devoting body, mind, and soul. He received the highest spiritual initiation, instantly attaining samādhi. His life was a permanent establishment in the highest spiritual experience under his master's guidance. As a spiritual successor, he built and established āśrams, tirelessly spreading the light. He preached non-dualism, non-violence as the highest religion, and the unity of all humanity through song and service. His devotion was Parabhakti, love without reservation, repeating the divine name for over eighteen hours daily. Such love overcomes all obstacles between us and God. He became a living testament that this realization is possible.
"My eyes filled with tears, and I fell to my knees. I knew I had found the everlasting light of my life."
"All humans belong to one religion, and that is humanity."

Sadhana maintains inner harmony
6:20 - 7:23 (63 min)
The Maṇipūra Chakra is the city of jewels, the center of true richness which is good health. This health of body, mind, and soul is realized only through daily practice, not through theory alone. Neglecting practice allows negative qualities like jealousy and anger to return, destroying inner harmony. Discipline is the inner master and key to success; its loss is like a setting sun bringing darkness. The practice awakens love for all neighbors, meaning every creature and element, without condition. This leads to freedom from being a slave to senses or dependencies. The ultimate happiness is devotion to the Supreme, an everlasting love, and the wisdom that comes when the Kuṇḍalinī's purifying fire burns all karma in the Maṇipūra center. This awakening reveals the inner fountain of joy and unites all in one spiritual family, protected by a pure consciousness no negative energy can penetrate.
"Tons of theory are nothing compared to a gram of practice."
"Discipline is your inner master. That best master will lead you twenty-four hours."

Singing Bhajans to the Masters
7:30 - 8:11 (41 min)
The radiance of satsaṅg, or holy company, is supreme. This association is the root cause of divine illumination. From satsaṅg, one attains the highest bliss and joy. It is praised as victorious and glorious. Worldly fears cannot touch one engaged in true satsaṅg. It is likened to the fragrance of sandalwood that permeates all it touches. This gathering is the essential means for realizing the divine presence within.
"Oh satsaṅga jaya jana pā, Maliya garā kevai, Oh chandana melevo Svāmpaka satsaṅga tasi parama ānanda sukha pā."
"Hameṁ kāma-satsaṅga se jagata-bhake to baka nehīṁ de."

8:15 - 8:50 (35 min)
The heart is an endless ocean of divine bliss.
Salutations are offered to the revered spiritual guide, who is the embodiment of the supreme. A prayer is made for all endeavors to be successful. This prayer acknowledges that all actions are already accomplished. The sequence presents a shift from future aspiration to past completion. The apparent inconsistency reveals a non-linear understanding of time. Success is not a future event but a present reality recognized through grace. The work is done in the spirit of that accomplished perfection.
"make all my work successful."

Guru is the first
15:20 - 15:56 (36 min)
Continue your sādhana for life. Your practice creates waves of energy that expand across the earth. Seva is the greatest practice; it uplifts completely when performed without any sense of "I gave you." Your life follows four stages: student, householder, forest dweller, and renunciant. The guru's grace is present in every breath, and the mantra is the mind finding fullness.
"Seva is the biggest. It is 100% sure that if you are doing seva, then it is said it will take us on its palms."
"Guru Kṛpāhi Kevalam, we don’t need to do anything."

Practicing of the system 'Yoga in Daily Life', Level 1 - Part 2
16:00 - 17:04 (64 min)
A morning yoga practice guides the body and breath toward relaxation and awareness. Begin by lying down, consciously relaxing each part of the body from the toes to the head. Observe the natural breath, then consciously deepen it into a full yogic wave moving from abdomen to chest. Coordinate simple stretches with inhalation and exhalation, feeling tension and release. Progress through poses that stretch the spine diagonally and twist it, always keeping the lower back close to the floor. Move into seated postures for flexion and extension of the spine, coordinating each movement with the breath. Conclude with deep relaxation, breath awareness, and a simple prāṇāyāma technique. "Feel your body becoming heavier with each exhalation." "Harmonize your movement with your breath." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India
Prana in food
17:10 - 18:00 (50 min)
Prāṇa is the vital essence sustained through breath and nourishment. Prāṇāyāma regulates this life force. Do not practice breath retention without months of preparatory inhalation and exhalation, as it harms the respiratory system. This exercise fills the body's tissues with prāṇa, whose deficiency causes aging. Physical postures should enhance prāṇa flow, not deplete it through strain. True nourishment is fresh, sāttvic food containing great prāṇa, like fruits and vegetables. Avoid alcohol, old food, and tāmasic items like aged cheese, which diminish vitality. Health is built, not bought. Control your senses, especially taste. Practice āsanas and prāṇāyāma for about two hours daily. Haṭha Yoga's six techniques—Netī, Dhautī, Bastī, Naulī, Trāṭak, and Kapālabhātī—purify the body. Āsanas alone are not Haṭha Yoga; they belong to Rāja Yoga, which requires ethical observances. Yoga transcends body and mind; these practices repair the body for that journey. The Guru is essential for true realization.
"Prāṇāyāma means 'āyāma'—exercise or regulation. Like āsanas are yoga Vyāyāma, this Vyāyāma is for every joint, muscle, ligament, and tissue."
"Yoga is beyond the body and mind. These practices are for control, to repair your body and your path to reach yoga."

Muladhara chakra. Part one.
18:05 - 18:37 (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."

The Effect of Karma on the Soul
18:45 - 19:26 (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."

Influence of karmas on the soul
20:25 - 21:15 (50 min)
The soul and karma are fundamentally intertwined. Karma is action, encompassing all doing, thinking, and speaking. Every action has a cause and creates an effect, which returns as a reaction to the actor. This cycle accounts for all steps, thoughts, and deeds. The universe itself is activity, or Kriyā. The individual soul, or Jīvātmā, is a manifestation of the supreme consciousness, born from primordial sound and wrapped in the elements. This soul carries its accumulated karma from life to life, migrating into forms according to its deeds. Human birth is a precious opportunity. Pain and fear are manifestations of negative karma. Liberation comes from self-realization, untangling the knots of karma through good actions and meditation, allowing the soul to dissolve back into the universal Ātman.
"Karma means action, cause, action and effect."
"The body dies, but the soul lives."

Anahata chakra
21:20 - 22:06 (46 min)
The awakening of contentment arises from purifying the heart chakra through practical yoga techniques. All phenomena contain three principles: resonance, light, and energy. When the Anāhata Chakra becomes pure, these three unite and material perception dissolves, revealing divine consciousness and unconditional compassion. This shift liberates one from karma. The initial awakening is Param Ānanda, supreme bliss, felt as subtle joy in the body. This bliss awakens inner resonance and the light of wisdom, leading to Śāntoṣa, the wealth of contentment. With contentment, one feels no lack; all external wealth becomes like dust. Happiness is needing nothing. The inner treasure of love and wisdom is already within; you are rich. A meditation technique purifies the body and awakens this state. Practice eleven cycles of Aśvinī Mudrā, then focus on ascending and descending breath, bodily expansion and contraction, inhaling cosmic light, and exhaling toxins. Finally, hold the body motionless and coordinate breath with the heart, using the mantra OM SO HAṂ to realize your divine essence.
"When the Śāntoṣa appears in the heart, then automatically your partner will share this Śāntoṣa with you."
"You cannot buy happiness, you cannot buy love, you cannot buy wisdom. Everything is within you."
