"In the satsaṅg, on the full moon, usually we listen to Guru Gītā. Try to really listen to Guru Gītā. I have listened to Guru Gītā for more than 40 years, and I must say that every time I hear something new inside." Following traditional invocations, a speaker addresses a gathering, weaving teachings on personal duty (dharma) with illustrative stories, including a sādhu persistently saving a scorpion and Nārada's lesson from Lord Viṣṇu.

The lecturer addresses a gathering, using the colorful autumn landscape as a metaphor for accepting the natural aging process.

"He who does not have knowledge of his own self... Only he heard too much, a lot. He doesn't know the meaning of the śāstras... Like the spoon doesn't know the taste of soup." "So this is full, that is full... From fullness or from the full, full arises. And if you take fullness from fullness, only fullness will remain." Swāmījī opens the session, discussing how modern technology erodes innate mental capacities and the importance of languages like Sanskrit as brain exercises. He introduces Professor Vašek from Charles University, who speaks on the depth of Indian philosophical inquiry, citing verses from the Mahābhārata and the Kena and Īśā Upaniṣads.

A spiritual discourse on the importance of practice over mere intellectual knowledge. "Too much reading also leads you nowhere. It’s only intellectual information. Therefore, practicing is very important." "God is more happy to them, those who are doing with a pure heart, not only with a pure intellect."

He illustrates this with a parable of two brothers, a jñāna yogi focused on intellectual correctness and a bhakti yogi devoted to simple worship.

A narrative discourse exploring the inner conflict of Lord Śiva following Satī's test of Lord Rāma. "Sometimes, to speak the truth is not easy. You hesitate to tell something; you do not want to lose face." "Therefore, God, please, you can take everything away, or may I lose everything, but not one thing: my belief, my devotion to you." The speaker recounts the mythological story where Satī, after testing Rāma by disguising herself as Sītā, lies to Śiva about her actions. Śiva, the knower of all, discovers the truth through his divine sight and is plunged into a profound inner conflict. He wrestles with a dilemma: to love Satī in her transformed state feels like a sin that would compromise his pure devotion (bhakti) to Rāma, yet he cannot reject his pure and faithful consort. The discourse uses this story to examine themes of truth, doubt, devotion, and the painful inner arguments that arise when faith is tested, concluding that only divine mercy can resolve such struggles.

A closing address summarizing a weekend spiritual seminar. "One topic was our vegetarian food... from Viśvagurujī, we learn the main reason: ahiṃsā paramodharma."

Key themes include the spiritual principle of non-violence (ahiṃsā) behind vegetarianism, the subtle dangers of the Kali Yuga era, and the importance of steadfast spiritual practice, likened to receiving a protective vaccination.

Following bhajans, the speaker delivers a teaching on divine immanence and maternal compassion, personifying a tree as a self-giving mother who shelters all creatures, endures hardship, and provides endlessly.

Evening satsang in the occasion of Gurudev's Birthday What means independency to you? Many people where witnessing several wars. The ambition to fight is in any human and animals too. When the human gets the ambition to fight for position, for money and creating or awakening cruel thoughts, to kill or damage properties, that means, that the animal qualities awakens in their body and intellect. That we call the animal instinct. When that awakens, then the human is blinded and focusing only on that illness. There is no remedy to cure such qualities. When the animal instinct comes into the human mind and emotions, means the ambition to fight for the position, or the money and for governing the rules, then only knowledge can give us freedom and liberation. The burning desire to get liberation, this is the independent day in the life.
