A speaker leads a satsang, emphasizing the profound impact of words, gestures, and intention.

A spiritual discourse on the chakra system and the qualities needed for self-realization. "Spiritual practice means not only just to sit and meditate and practice mantras, but to change inner feelings. Humbleness is one of the best parts of spirituality." "Dayā dharam kā mūl hai, pāp mūl hai abhimān... the roots of the dharma, right-house-ness, is the mercy. And the roots of the sins is the ego." Swami Brahmapuri leads a satsang, continuing a series on the chakras. He transitions from discussing the foundational Mūlādhāra Chakra to explaining the Svādhiṣṭhāna Chakra. The core teaching outlines five spiritual qualities—Vairāgya (detachment), Tyāga (renunciation), Bhakti (devotion), Jñāna (knowledge), and Dayā (mercy)—as the means to overcome negative obstacles like desire and anger. He illustrates these principles with stories of Krishna and Shiva, and gives practical advice, including how to care for a rudrākṣa bead. Filming location: Vancouver, Canada

6:10 - 7:22 (72 min)

A spiritual discourse on yoga philosophy, the nature of the self, and the path to oneness. "Our life, as we said, is a destiny and a journey. It is a journey; the destination is still not there." "In Ātmā, in the self, there are no dualities; there is only oneness. So where there is heaven and hell, there is life and death... that's what we want to come out of, to become one with the highest, with our Self." Swami Anand Arun delivers an extensive teaching, exploring the journey beyond dualities like life/death and divine/demonic energies. He explains core concepts of Ātmā, karma, and the three guṇas, detailing the system of senses (indriyas), vital energies (prāṇas), and channels (nāḍīs). The talk defines yoga as union, clarifies traditional Haṭha Yoga, and maps the subtle body's chakras, concluding with anecdotes about advanced practices like Khecharī Mudrā and the nectar of immortality.

Chakras, Nadis and Kundalini
7:30 - 8:09 (39 min)
Recorded on
A discourse on the subtle energy systems of yoga, including chakras, nāḍīs, and the mind. "The chakras are a methodological representation. You will not see this exact picture if you look within your own body, so do not try to see it literally." "The mind is a river; we should not block it. If we block a dam, we must provide an outlet. Without an outlet, the dam will break and cause greater harm. The mind needs direction." The teacher provides a detailed explanation of the chakra and nāḍī (energy channel) system, relating it to human physiology, the elements, and life metaphors like a leaf separating from a tree. Key themes include the symbolic nature of chakras, the function of the Iḍā and Piṅgalā nāḍīs, the dangers of improperly awakening kuṇḍalinī energy, and how suppressed emotions manifest as physical ailments. The talk integrates concepts of the five sheaths (kośas), the role of the guru, and the purpose of spiritual practice for holistic health. Filming location: London, UK

A spiritual discourse on the inner light and the practice of trāṭaka. "Our soul, our ātmā, comes into our body from the cosmic energies. It is like water from the ocean that rises to become clouds, and from the clouds, dripping water falls to the earth and flows onward." "Even the green grass, even any trees, bushes, all creatures—everyone has eyes, and they are all looking with their light toward their destination. Therefore, all our trees also have their eyes, and that is concentration, what we call trāṭaka." The speaker addresses a gathering of practitioners, explaining the journey of the soul and the universal presence of inner sight. He shares teachings received from his Gurudeva, using the metaphor of a seed's growth and a story about a guru's astral rescue of a devotee to illustrate the power of focused awareness (trāṭaka) and the spiritual significance of the navel (nābhi) as a point of energy and re-entry.

A narration of the mythological story of Nārada's curse upon Lord Viṣṇu, followed by a discourse on its spiritual meaning.

The speaker recounts how the sage Nārada, enraged after being tricked by Viṣṇu's illusion (māyā), confronts the Lord to curse Him. In his anger, Nārada pronounces a curse that Viṣṇu will incarnate as Rāma, suffer separation from His wife, and be aided by monkeys. Viṣṇu accepts the curse, explaining it was His own divine will, and later dissolves the illusion. A remorseful Nārada seeks forgiveness, and Viṣṇu promises to give him a liberating Kriyā.
