A Prayer for the Immortal Soul
0:40 - 1:22 (42 min)
Destiny and the mystery of time, death, and the soul's journey are our themes.
We are mortal and do not know the time or place of our death. God has not given us the ability to know the past or future, for such knowledge would overwhelm us. What plays with us between past, present, and future is our destiny, a mysterious and sometimes inescapable force. The story of Oedipus shows that some destined events cannot be avoided. We must therefore focus on the divine. At life's end, one should have only God's name in mind, as demonstrated by Mahatma Gandhi's final words. Enlightenment involves widening consciousness beyond time, dissolving negative qualities like anger and attachment. A self-realized person digests or conquers time and death, yet even the enlightened must ultimately leave the body. We pray for a departed soul to dissolve into the cosmic light.
"Humans are very intelligent and intellectual beings, but God has not given them this one ability: to know the past and to know the future."
"At the end of my life, when I renounce this body, I have only one wish, that you are standing in front of me."

Evening satsang with Vishwaguruji from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Strilky Ashram is not for one it is for all. Many people died by corona. It has many hidden signs. We are the real yoga from the earth till the cosmic. When we leave our body we don't know about how is in the world. God gave us the possibility not to be born again. Sometimes people are afraid of ghosts in the darkness. There is no ghost in reality. We can come back to the earth only through the mother's womb. Nowadays people have many problems with the health of their bodies. Maybe the cause of this is some karma from our past lives. Every creature feels pain and sadness when they die. Sometimes our soul is suffering in this body but we don't want to die. the whole ocean consists of drops. Yogic science knows how it will be afraid we leave this body. So we want to live and enjoy our life.

The pilgrimage to a holy place is a rare achievement of spiritual practice. Many begin the journey, but few complete it, like blossoms that become ripe fruit despite winds and storms. In ancient times, pilgrims walked for months with great hardship, sustained only by the name of the divine destination. Upon arrival, one's entire being merges with the sacred energy of the place, and all past struggles are forgotten. This land is considered a spiritual mother, where even animals like the cow are revered as divine gifts. Many gods are worshipped here without conflict, embodying the principle of 'one in all and all in one.' True spiritual progress requires vairāgya, or dispassion, freeing oneself from worldly attachments which are the cause of suffering. Even divine incarnations faced great troubles. Modern life, especially in this age, creates complex attachments and societal challenges. We are fortunate to be here in this powerful, divine region.
"This holy, this spiritual pilgrimage, is not easy to achieve."
"Without vairāgya, you cannot renounce. And without renouncing, you are in attachment."

Introduction of the Strilky Ashram
2:50 - 2:59 (9 min)
This sacred grove is a place of satsaṅg, established through great effort, where one must enter with clean hands and feet and without shoes. It is a beautiful, peaceful forest for prayer. Our ashram is a holy place where many have lived peacefully, having given up things like meat and alcohol. Devotees from around the world come, though some stay only briefly. This path led to the rediscovery of the ancient principle of Alak Purījī, connected to Śiva. After the era of Śiva and Shakti, Pārvatī arose, though she was initially unaware.
"This is our satsaṅg, our samāj. This is what we are for everyone."
"Anytime, if you desire something... you should come to this place and pray with our mantra. Everything will return to peace and harmony."

Interview with Vishwaguruji
4:35 - 4:59 (24 min)
The spiritual journey is rooted in lineage and inner purity. Our tradition descends from great masters like Śrī Alāpurījī, Śrī Devapurījī, Śrī Nareṅdra Mahāprabhujī, and Svāmī Madhavānand Sarasvatī. I come from a village in Rajasthan. Spiritual upbringing by loving parents is foundational. I was always inclined toward purity, God, and nature from childhood. My master provided continuous guidance through example, not formal lectures. Yoga is beyond physical postures; it resides in human consciousness, heart, and humility. I travel widely, yet yoga remains the constant. I maintain a childlike purity, seeing myself as a child of God and my master. This humility allows me to place my mistakes before them. I feel relaxed, knowing I am cared for and that I protect others. The O-Māśram project in Jodhan is a meditation-born monument to offer something spiritual to the world. Traveling from India to Europe presented surface differences in daily life, but my focus was always on what I could realize and give. The guru-disciple relationship is like that of parent and child, based on oneness without duality. A master must see all disciples equally, guiding them with love toward the Supreme.
"Yoga is not only the physical body; it is more than that. Yoga is within human consciousness, in the human heart, in human humbleness."
"Guru and master, disciple is like father and mother—that’s it—the brother, the child, and father or mother and child."
The Inner States: Jagrat, Svapna, Suṣupti, and Beyond
5:00 - 5:14 (14 min)
We explore the inner states of waking, dream, and deep sleep. Our activities with open eyes for the outer world constitute the waking state, Jagrat. In sleep, we are within ourselves. Deep sleep, Suṣupta, is a state of full awareness of the Self, offering comfort and peace. The dream state, Svapna, contains inner impressions, both good and bad. A constant alertness exists within and between these states. Sleep is a divine gift for turning inward toward the Ātmā. Beyond these is Yoga Nidrā, a higher sleep described by sages where practitioners are awake in the dark night, conscious of the Supreme. This understanding strengthens our spiritual practice.
"From sunrise to sunset, we are Jagrat, and for that, God has given the light."
"Deep sleep... means we are 100% aware about our Self, and so it is very comfortable, relaxed, and peaceful."

The blessed day of Gurupurnima
5:15 - 5:55 (40 min)
Guru Pūrṇimā celebrates the Guru, the highest principle who dispels darkness with light. It is Vyāsa Pūrṇimā, honoring the sage who compiled the Vedas, and the day the sun's light first descended. Sanātana Dharma is the eternal, spiritual religion, not man-made. The Guru sits on the Vyāsagādī, a holy throne. The disciple is like iron transformed to gold by the Guru's touch. This day begins the spiritual year. Seekers bring their annual spiritual harvest to the Master, presenting their fruits or confessing failures, and take a new resolution for sādhanā. A true devotee longs for the Guru like a lover, unable to sleep or eat, waiting in the heart. The relationship is profound and personal. Disciples are free but face the consequences of their actions. The Master's blessing and light are everywhere.
"Gu means darkness, and ru means light. When the darkness disappears, the light appears."
"Gurudev is the stone, the miracle stone, which changes the iron into gold."

The Mūlādhāra Chakra is the root foundation and the origin of the Kuṇḍalinī energy. It is supported by the Vajranāḍī among the 72,000 subtle channels. The three primary nāḍīs are Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumṇā. The term 'haṭha yoga' originates from the union of 'ha' (the left nāḍī) and 'tha' (the right nāḍī). Haṭha yoga means applying forceful willpower. Common practices like āsana and prāṇāyāma are actually rāja yoga. True haṭha yoga involves unwavering determination, as illustrated by the story of an ant persistently carrying a grain of sugar. This willpower is categorized as Rājahaṭa (a king's will), Bālahaṭa (a child's will), and Strīyāhaṭa (a woman's will). The yoga of Haṭha is the practitioner's will to realize God through complete renunciation of desires and attachments. Haṭha yoga also includes ṣaṭ karma, six purification techniques to prevent illness. A story of a Haṭha Yogī baking bread on a funeral pyre demonstrates ultimate renunciation; he rejected an offer from Śiva himself, wanting nothing. Desire must be renounced to reach higher consciousness. The nāḍīs cross at various junctions, forming chakras like Viśuddhi, Anāhata, and Maṇipūra. The Mūlādhāra Chakra, the foundation, contains a symbolic elephant representing prosperity and the seven minerals for health. It is the border between human and animal consciousness. The dormant Kuṇḍalinī, symbolized by a coiled serpent, awakens to rise through the chakras to Sahasrāra, uniting Śakti (energy) with Śiva (consciousness). The chakra's lotus petals, growing from muddy roots, represent rising above worldly attachments; each petal bears a Sanskrit letter, a resonance of divine sound. The entire universe exists within the human body.
"Haṭha means that you try very hard; you use willpower. We must have the willpower to achieve something."
"If you want to be happy, if you want to enjoy life, then renounce."

Introduction to the science of Chakras
14:35 - 15:55 (80 min)
Introduction to Chakras, Presov, Slovak Republic. Muladhara stores much karmic information about us. What is dormant in Muladhara is sprouting in Svadisthana. This is the place of kriya shakti and iccha shakti. If we purify this chakra, half way to our final goal is behind us. Manipura is the powerhouse of our body. Anahat is the place of our feelings. Vishuddhi is the door to the astral world.

The Presence of the Guru
17:15 - 17:58 (43 min)
The Guru is omnipresent, and our practice is to recognize and honor this presence. He is always observing and is within us. His physical presence is a blessing, but his true nature is everywhere. We must cultivate love and devotion, which together allow our spiritual connection to grow. Serving him and being in his company is the primary practice, as it reduces the ego. We must learn to surrender completely, trusting him without relying on our own logic. He tests our faith, and those who trust him completely will find all obstacles removed. Approach him not with trivial questions but to seek blessings for your sincere endeavors. His guidance may come in many forms, all of which are for our benefit. Ultimately, we must believe he is the sole doer, and we are instruments in his divine play.
"When you close your eyes, or when you even open your eyes, you can see his form sitting here. We should not think that Gurudev is physically not here, but Gurudev is omnipresent."
"If we have that mindset within us, then nothing is going to stop us in this world, and we just need to continue this beautiful, beautiful legacy what Gurudev has created and just know that he is inside, and he is always with us."

Real health comes from Nature
18:05 - 19:04 (59 min)
Health involves both conventional medicine and natural, yogic approaches. Doctors often manage symptoms without providing lasting cures. Many ailments persist despite treatment. Natural methods from India, like yoga and specific exercises, offer profound benefits. Certain tree barks and natural preparations can address stomach and bodily issues where medicine fails. I am not a doctor; I am a yogi pointing to what is natural. Practice simple postures and breathing. Consistency with these natural methods brings health. Both systems have value, but the natural path is deeply restorative and often overlooked. True well-being comes from harmonizing with nature's intelligence.
"Many things which we cannot do, which the doctors cannot do."
"This medicine also does not cure; they cannot cure it."

Prana is also holy and necessary for our life. Animals are aware in their sleep also. The story about a yogi and the tigers. We need oxygen for meditation. The story about two friends who went to the Himalayas and try to share their meal. The story about Vishwaguruji Mansadev and a bear in a forest in Kanada. We have to be the winner against corona.

Cultivating strong digestive fire and sāttvic living is essential for spiritual practice. Learning to cook from a young age is vital, as it connects us to our food and its energy. A story illustrates the importance of agni: a Yogī, possessing powerful jāṭharāgni, consumed food offered by Rākṣasas and dissolved the demon within, teaching us to develop the inner fire to process all experiences. Strengthen Agni through Haṭha Yoga Kriyās, āsanas for the Maṇipūra Chakra, and preparatory prāṇāyāma like Nāḍī Śodhana before advanced techniques such as Bhastrikā. A strict vegetarian diet is foundational; consuming meat introduces the animal's fear and chemistry into your body, which can manifest as disturbing experiences during meditation. The system of Yoga in Daily Life prevents this through gradual, step-by-step practice. Always go deeper into your practice through the five bodies—it will never be boring. Be mindful of karma, as illustrated by a story where a woman poisoned sweets intended for a sādhu, but they were instead eaten by her own children, demonstrating that one's actions return. Our physiology—like side-to-side jaw movement and long intestines—indicates we are meant to be vegetarian. The energy and intention behind food preparation matter; cook with a peaceful mind to maintain a sāttvic household.
"Remain where you are."

Proudness
22:10 - 23:02 (52 min)
The ego of a devotee is cured by divine grace through humility. Even great beings can develop pride in their service. Hanumān once believed Rāma's victory depended entirely on him. Earlier, Garuḍa also lost faith after rescuing Rāma from a snake-arrow, thinking God needed his help. Garuḍa, in despair, was told only the crow-sage Kakabhuśuṇḍī could cure him. As Garuḍa approached, hearing the sage's discourse restored his devotion, and he saw even the gods listening. To cure Hanumān's pride, Rāma sent him to deliver a ring to a sage in the Himalayas. The sage told Hanumān to throw it into a pond, which was filled with identical rings from every divine incarnation. Hanumān then understood his role was not unique but part of an eternal cycle, curing his ego.
"Hanumānjī became proud. He thought, 'If I were not, Rāma would not be successful.'"
"Hanumān, don’t be proud. Don’t think that through your help, Rāma was victorious... It was a test for you."
