An evening satsang on the illusory nature of time and the urgency of spiritual practice. "In reality, there is no time. Who created time? Animals do not count it. We humans made time." "Use it or lose it. This was my mantra, and so I was practicing. Till now, I am 103 years, I am still like this." The lecturer leads the discourse, exploring the human construct of time and its unstoppable flow. He shares parables, including one of a Himalayan rishi who learns his vast knowledge is but a handful of sand compared to the whole, and another of a yogi whose pride ruins his sādhanā. The key theme is that our limited time must be used for sincere practice and humility, lest it be lost. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

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.

A spiritual discourse narrating the story of Pārvatī's resolve to perform tapasyā (austerity) and explaining its power. "Tapasya is the giver of happiness and the remover of all troubles." "Through the power of tapasyā, Brahmā is able to create this world. Through the power of that tapasyā... Viṣṇu is able to protect the world. And through that power of tapasyā, Śiva, is able to destroy all the negative powers." The speaker recounts how Pārvatī, consoling her mother Mēnā, describes a dream in which a Brāhmaṇa instructs her to undertake severe spiritual austerity, affirming the truth of sage Nārada's words. The narrative details the immense power of tapasyā, using the examples of the Hindu trinity and Śeṣanāga, and describes Pārvatī's subsequent journey into the forest for a prolonged, extreme penance to attain Lord Śiva.

Evening satsang from Slovenska Vas, Slovenia.

A spiritual lecture on the Mūlādhāra chakra and the nature of haṭha yoga. "Haṭha means that you try very hard; you use willpower. We must have the willpower to achieve something. Don't give up. Try, try, try." "Therefore it is: renounce and enjoy. If you want to be happy, if you want to enjoy life, then renounce." A teacher explains the foundational Mūlādhāra chakra as the root of energy and the seat of the dormant Kuṇḍalinī. He details the three primary nāḍīs (Iḍā, Piṅgalā, Suṣumṇā) and defines true haṭha yoga as the forceful application of willpower for spiritual union, distinct from common physical practice. Through stories—including an ant's perseverance and a Haṭha Yogī who renounces even Śiva's offer—he emphasizes themes of relentless practice, renunciation of desire, and the ultimate goal of awakening energy to unite with divine consciousness.

When parents are full of love, harmony, and good education, and are very spiritual, they will always tell you what God is." "Yoga is not only the physical body; it is more than that... Yoga is within human consciousness, in the human heart, in human humbleness, in a humble way of looking at everything."
