The Imperative of Daily Practice
0:20 - 0:59 (39 min)

A direct address to yoga students on the necessity of disciplined daily practice for physical and mental purification.
"Practicing means at home—here you only learn. Practicing for just one week is ineffective; it must be a continuous, daily process."
"We must become sāttvic. Where the body is sāttvic, there is no vikāra. Vikāra exists in the mind as well."
Swami Avatarpuri (Swāmījī) leads a satsang, critiquing the lack of consistent practice among attendees. He stresses that health through daily āsana, prāṇāyāma, and seasonal cleansing techniques like Śaṅkha Prakṣālana is the essential foundation for spirituality. He expands on the concepts of vikāra (impurity/illness) and the guṇas, urging a transformation in diet (āhār), recreation (vihār), behavior (ācār), and thought (vicār). The talk includes practical instructions, responses to questions about cleansing practices, and a call for teachers to become examples of yogic health.

The Nature of the Knower and the Self
1:05 - 1:40 (35 min)

A discourse on Advaita Vedanta and the nature of the Self, based on Śaṅkarācārya's teachings.
"This body is full of vikāra. Some have a cough, some a cold, some have lung problems... But Ātman is not born; there is no change in your Ātman, and it will not die either."
"If you have no form, what can death do to you?... You are Avināśī. So if you are Avināśī, no one can destroy you, no one can take you away; then why are you afraid?"
The speaker expounds on the true nature of the Self (Ātman) as distinct from the body, explaining key Sanskrit terms: Nirvikāra (free from decay/impurity), Nirākāra (formless), Nirmala (pure), and Avināśī (immortal). He emphasizes that identifying with the eternal, formless Self, rather than the impermanent body, is the path to overcoming fear, disease, and sorrow. The talk integrates scriptural commentary, practical advice like breath awareness and Self-inquiry, and concludes with the realization of the Self as all-pervading (Vyāpaka) consciousness.

Live as a Human
1:45 - 2:19 (34 min)

A spiritual discourse on non-violence, divine oneness, and the sanctity of all life.

"Jīvā means life, life, and in that life there are all creatures: a little ant, this little ant, and humans, and all are all equal, what is living, living."
A Swami addresses a gathering, weaving together cosmology, ethics, and personal anecdote. He speaks of Bhagavān Śiva as the primordial source and emphasizes the fundamental equality of all life (Jīva). The core teaching is the practice of ahimsa (non-violence), advocating for a vegan lifestyle and abstaining from alcohol, framed as a recognition of our shared humanity. He instructs listeners to begin each day with the affirmation "I am human" to cultivate this awareness, and concludes with a bhajan.

Devik shakti
3:05 - 3:35 (30 min)

A spiritual discourse on the two fundamental forces of the universe, Devīśakti and Āsurīśakti.
"Both forces, Devīśakti and Āsurīśakti, exist. Devīśakti is positive power, and Āsurīśakti is negative power. But the origin of both is one: God Himself."
"Thus, Devīśakti and Āsurīśakti develop. The part of the power, the energy gathered in negative qualities, day by day, will become Āsurīśakti, and the positive forces will become Devīśakti."
The speaker explains the cosmic duality of divine and negative powers, both emanating from a single divine source. He describes how an individual's path—toward development or destruction—is influenced by their company (saṅga). The talk covers the three types of suffering (Tri-Tāpa), the importance of the Guru's grace for protection, and the significance of the Navarātri festival dedicated to the Divine Mother, or cosmic Śakti.

"Guru Brahma, Guru Viṣṇu, Guru Devo Maheśvara, Guru Sākṣāt Para Brahma, Tasmai Śrī Guruve Namaha—the Guru Tattva, Śiva Tattva, Viṣṇu Tattva, and Brahma Tattva."
A spiritual teacher narrates from a high Himalayan valley, explaining the eternal Guru principle and the Nityāvatāra of great saints. He recounts the lineage from the ancient Alakpurījī to Devapurījī, then to Bhagavān Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Mahāprabhujī, and finally to their Satguru, Swāmī Madhavānandapurījī, whose birth anniversary is being celebrated.

Time and destiny, Melbourne
18:15 - 19:25 (70 min)

Every saint or holy incarnation has to go through certain experiences in life. Even God has to go through particular situaions. Does God have a destiny? The life of Jesus - he had to go through many hard situations in his life. Was this his destiny or was him given a task to go trough? Swamiji tells episodes from the life of the Sufi master Mansur Al-Hallaj and Hanumanji from the Ramayana. If we have faith - God and we are one - then nothing will happen. When we hold on God's name we will cross the ocean and reach the shore of happiness and peace. Kirtan is the repetition of God's name. The positive vibration will resonance in our whole body and will give positive effects. This will influence our destiny. Guruvakyas, Satsangs, Kirtans and Bhajans are good guidelines in our life. Recorded in Melbourne, Australia.

The story about how can some seeds öf grain remain unbroken. Who is going to the Satsang they can reach the Supreme. Sometimes we see the karma but don't do that. Man saints past away but their name remained with us. Holiguruji was very lovely and strict for those persons who were around him. Holiguruji knew if somebody criticises him the bad karma went to that man. Diving to the ocean we can hear the beautiful sound and we hear this also if we plug our ears. Viswaguruji blows the conch three times for the honour of Holiguruji.
