How to think of black magic
0:20 - 1:07 (47 min)
Recorded on
A satsang discourse debunking fear-based beliefs around black magic and ghosts through storytelling. "People are very much frightened. They speak of ghosts and such things, and many claim they can take away the black magic which is supposedly on you." "If we believe in God, then believe in God. God will give everything. God will never do anything negative for us." Swami Ji narrates two cautionary tales to illustrate how fear and superstition are exploited. The first story tells of a village magician who manipulates a grieving widow, and the second describes a 'ghost' that turns out to be a moonlit chimney. He emphasizes that true spiritual practice, such as having a Guru Mantra and faith, offers protection, concluding that it is one's own fear, not external forces, that causes suffering.

A spiritual discourse on destiny, karma, and religious tradition, incorporating stories and teachings.

The lecturer leads an evening satsang, exploring the concept of destiny through the lens of karma and consciousness.

The spiritual family
4:05 - 4:56 (51 min)
Recorded on
An opening talk at a spiritual seminar addressing the absence of the guru and the purpose of gathering. "People are always complaining, 'Oh, Kali Yuga is not good, Kali Yuga is a terrible time.' But if you know how to utilize it, Kali Yuga is also excellent." "We need to be like a Paramahaṁsa... We should be like that. In this world, we have so many things... we should be like the Haṁsa: take the pearls, take the milk, and leave the water." A senior disciple addresses the assembled spiritual family at the Vép seminar, acknowledging the physical absence of Viśvagurūjī. He reframes the gathering as a vital opportunity to recharge, strengthen spiritual family bonds, and deepen personal practice. Key themes include extracting the essence from the Kali Yuga, the necessity of a supportive community for sādhanā, and using the seminar for introspection, mauna (silence), and focused practice of āsana and prāṇāyāma to calm the mind.

Bhakti Yog, Jñāna Yog, and Karma Yog... all paths lead to the same path." "If there is a lock, there is a key, but by giving up, you're not going to find it. That key, if you look in the right direction without giving up, then we will know that the key is right next to us." The lecturer leads the morning session, explaining how the three yogas are interwoven, using the analogy of marriage to describe moving from knowledge to love to selfless service. He emphasizes the importance of seva (selfless service) and humility, sharing a parable about a businessman's spoiled son who transforms his life through devoted seva. The discourse also includes alternative devotional narratives from the Ramayana about Kaikeyi and Hanuman, and concludes with the chanting and translation of the Guru Padukas Stotra.

Recorded on
A spiritual discourse on perseverance, self-knowledge, and the inner faculties. "It is not easy for anyone to remain steadfast on one path. This is true for everybody; it doesn't matter who you are. But when one has a single target, one can achieve it." "He learned a lesson: if the ant cannot give up, why should I give up my sādhanā? I am sure one day I will achieve my goal. I may fall down many times, but I will get up again." The speaker shares a parable about an ant persevering to carry a grain of rice, using it to illustrate the necessity of steadfastness on the spiritual path. He expands into an extended metaphor of the body as a coach, with the ten indriyas (faculties) as horses and the Ātmā as the king within. He emphasizes the crucial role of Viveka (discriminative intellect) as the king's advisor to guard against inner thieves like lust, anger, and greed, concluding that the Guru's word is the weapon that dispels them.

An evening satsang discourse on the essence and power of mantra. "A mantra is like a seed. When we put a seed in the ground, it grows into a plant or a tree. The mantra is that seed." "Holy Gurujī always used to say... 'Man' means mind. 'Tra' means trāpti... contentment. 'Man' and 'tṛpti' means liberation." Swamiji explains the foundational concept of mantra as a spiritual seed that branches into various yoga paths like kīrtan, bhajan, and bhakti. He critiques modern materialism and loss of traditional wisdom, using anecdotes about waste and a greedy bird to illustrate the restless, untamed mind that mantra is meant to pacify. He concludes with teaching stories about humility and the proper use of spiritual power. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A satsang discourse on overcoming fear and stress through laughter, authenticity, and spiritual practice. "Never take them seriously. Especially laugh at our own mistakes, problems, and fears." "Spirituality without love is a terrible thing. I always remember... 'God, please protect me from spirituality without laughter.'" The teacher shares stories and practical advice for dealing with internal struggles, emphasizing not to suppress fears but to face them with awareness and humor. He recounts the tale of a witch who controlled a village through fear of her rooster, illustrating how confronting false beliefs dispels their power. The talk connects this to daily spiritual practice, advising against empty ritual in favor of authentic feeling, as exemplified in the story of Krishna preferring a banana peel offered with love over a feast offered with pride.

The talk covers the significance of Agni (fire) in various forms, the Vedic science behind marriage rituals and astrology, and concludes with a story about Viṣṇu and Lakṣmī testing a devotee's true loyalty, illustrating the allure of prosperity (Lakṣmī) over pure devotion.
