A spiritual discourse on karma, consciousness, and the path to liberation. "Karma pradhāna hai. Karma is very important. One must not understand karma as negative. Karma is action." "So, what we have to become is a witness, a knower, or an observer... You become a witness of everything." In a morning satsang, Swami Madhav Krishna explains the fundamental nature of karma as all action and process in the universe, distinguishing it from mere negative consequence. He describes the journey from identification with the physical body and worldly attachments to realizing the still, witnessing consciousness (Ātman) that exists beyond the movement of energy (śakti). Using parables and analogies—including driving a car and the story of Dattātreya learning from a woman's bracelets—he elucidates concepts of non-duality, the blessing of divine energy from liberated beings, and the ultimate goal of Self-realization.

A satsang featuring spiritual stories and teachings on renunciation, ego, and the pitfalls on the spiritual path. "Seeing you all the time indulged in these materialistic activities and always enjoying your life makes me sad."

The first tells of King Gopichand, who renounces his kingdom at his mother's request and learns the true meaning of his mother's three advices for monastic life. The second, a cautionary tale, describes a powerful muni whose intense tapasya is destroyed by rising ego and desire, ultimately exploited by Kamadeva. The speaker weaves in related teachings, including a story of Lord Rama delivering justice to a dog, to emphasize controlling anger, speech, and the dangers of ego.

A spiritual discourse on taming the restless mind using a parable from Gurudeva. "Our mind is chanchal. Chanchal means very restless, and that is normal for a human mind, but you need to learn how to train and tame your mind." "In the same way, our minds are very restless, running around. We should just let it go; that is its job, to roam around and have thoughts continuously. Then, slowly, slowly, train your mind towards Guru Bhakti." A speaker recounts Gurudeva's parable of a king's untamable horse and the patient trainer who tamed it through gentle, persistent companionship and reward. The story serves as an analogy for taming the restless mind through devotion to the Guru and the path of Bhakti, rather than forceful suppression.

Have you ever reached or gone to the horizon?" "Bhagavān Kṛṣṇa said to Arjuna: both are good, Nirākāra and Sākāra, the formless and with form. But he said, for you, Arjuna, it is easier to worship in form."

He discusses the path of worship, the significance of divine forms and symbols in Hindu tradition, and the importance of sacred language and human relationships.

Satsang with Swamiji from Wellington, NZ. With the cleanness of our house we can see our inner condition. How we are keeping the ashram or the house in order, with this we can see our love and devotion. We can see if everything is in beauty. It is our inner beauty, the inner pureness, our inner clarity which is reflecting there. Doubts, desires and hidden wishes we did not clean up are spoiling our mind. If we are neglecting our sadhana, our duties, then tamas guna, the laziness takes over. It will grow more and more and we will find every self excuse for our mental pollution. Self enquiry meditation, which is taught in the Yoga in Daily life Yoga classes will help to clear up the question - not who am I but how am I. We have to search within, how is our inner world and how is our inner condition. Translation of the bhajan: Jag musafir dekh vo.

The lecturer narrates the pastime of young Krishna being bound by a "rope of love" to illustrate God's voluntary surrender to pure devotion. He expands on the theme by explaining the protective power of a guru-given mantra and mala, and recounts a detailed karmic parable about a leper, a donation of ghee, and a storekeeper's theft to underscore the law of cause and effect. The talk concludes with reflections on truthfulness and a brief linguistic note. Filming location: Wellington, New Zealand

A discourse on the nature of the Kali Yuga and the power of the divine name. "Kali Yuga is Kriyā Yuga. Kriyā Yuga means Karma Yuga. Karma is primary." "Kali yuga kevala nāma ādhāra, sumira sumira nara hoi bhava pāra. (In the Kali Yuga, the name alone is the foundation; by repeating, repeating, a person crosses the ocean of existence.)" Swami Maheshwarananda explains that the Kali Yuga is an age dominated by action (karma), but its true foundation is the repetition of God's name, as stated by Tulsidas. He shares a personal memory of his Guru appearing to him at the Strelky ashram and narrates a Puranic story about the sage Vishvamitra to illustrate the supreme value of satsang. The talk emphasizes that diligent spiritual practice (purushartha) is essential, yet liberation comes from anchoring oneself in the divine name. Filming location: Wellington, New Zealand

A spiritual discourse on the importance of discernment in seeking a true guru, illustrated with cautionary tales. "Sometimes we just follow people by seeing their work, but not by understanding what they really are doing, and we follow blindly." "It’s very important to find a real Satguru Dev, because nowadays, as we know, it’s Kali Yuga, and in Kali Yuga people are not so nice as they were once upon a time." A speaker addresses a gathering, warning against blind faith in the spiritual search. He emphasizes the necessity of finding a genuine guru from an authentic lineage, contrasting this with self-serving imposters. He shares two parables: one about a blind sadhu whose devotional offering is eaten by a cat, leading to an unexamined ritual tradition, and another about a deceitful, nose-less fake guru who exploits disciples. The core message is to seek clarity, ask questions, and avoid following teachings without understanding. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
