The wisdom of Chakras
1:20 - 2:42 (82 min)
The mudrā of joining the index finger and thumb symbolizes the union of the individual soul and the supreme consciousness. This gesture brings peace and relieves mental restlessness. Research in European hospitals and rehabilitation centers shows it provides relief. The three remaining fingers represent the three guṇas: purity, restlessness, and inertia. One must rise above these qualities. The best meditation posture is where one feels comfortable, as liberation comes from knowledge and humility, not physical form. Daily practice should begin with positive words to set a harmonious tone, affecting the body's energy centers. Physical ailments often stem from unresolved tension and negative emotions stored in the chakras. Do not dwell on the past or worry about the future. Maintain awareness and relaxation. Anger, jealousy, and greed are obstacles that disturb the energy centers and must be released through practice and right understanding.

The Final Satsaṅg
2:50 - 3:38 (48 min)
The final gathering contemplates fortune, faith, and the inner harvest. Good or bad destiny is created by one's own actions. Attaining divine pleasure requires luck and fortune, which cannot be forced. There are two types of seekers: one who works hard for a spiritual goal and one who works for worldly pleasures based on intellect. Without steadfast devotion, nothing can protect you. Unity is essential; a lack of unity within society and religion leads to unrest. The scriptures recognize no caste discrimination; there is only the human race. A true disciple is tested through faith and action, not mere intellect. One must practice their spiritual resolve to attain fulfillment. Purity arises by removing anger, greed, and ego. Spiritual practice awakens inner power and leads to the goal. This knowledge and the inner harvest come only through the grace of the Guru.
"One cannot get the pleasure of good things without luck."
"If we all live in unity, then why should there be unrest in our country?"

Keep balance while you are practicing
3:45 - 4:45 (60 min)
Yoga is a lifelong practice for body, mind, and spirit. It is an ancient science for health and self-realization, not merely physical exercise. Many misunderstand it, turning it commercial, but true yoga overcomes stress and brings peace. It is for all ages and walks of life, a daily system like eating or breathing. Practice must be balanced, without competition or strain, and includes postures, breath, and meditation. Breath harmonizes the body, and the heart works loyally; we must care for it. The body is a temple for the inner self, which dislikes aggression and falsity. Spirituality is devotion—a higher, respectful love—not a temporary, misused emotion. True devotion leads to oneness and God realization, harmonizing life and family.

Yoga and meditation
4:50 - 5:54 (64 min)
Meditation is a path to inner harmony through self-inquiry. A mantra purifies energy, creating positive vibration. Begin by chanting Aum, the cosmic resonance present before creation. Sit motionless, relax the body, and coordinate it with natural breath. Awareness moves to the heart, the seat of happiness, peace, and compassion. This inner love, akin to a parent's love, is a constant source. Positive energy emanates from the heart, coloring one's being. Consciousness is pure, but thoughts impart a color, shaping reality. Mastery over this determines a life of peace or sorrow. The individual soul experiences the world, while the eternal ātmā within is indestructible, like the sky. True security comes from cultivating universal love rooted in the lineage of life itself. Yoga harmonizes body, mind, and spirit.
"Lead us from unreality to reality. Lead us from darkness to light."
"Your heart is pure. Your consciousness is very pure. Your awareness is very alert. But what color are your thoughts?"

Practising asanas from Rijeka
6:00 - 6:41 (41 min)
We practice āsanas to bring awareness to each chakra from Mūlādhāra to Sahasrāra. Begin by standing and feeling the Mūlādhāra area. Āsanas activate chakras like a reflex point, not the organ itself. Perform Maṇḍūkāsana, focusing on the perineum and practicing Aśvinī Mudrā by contracting and relaxing. Abdominal breathing here also engages Svādhiṣṭhāna. Feel a warm sensation in the pelvis. Practice grinding and rolling movements to engage Maṇipūra and feel warmth at the navel. Rolling includes head movement, affecting the Viśuddhi chakra and thyroid. Each chakra connects to the physical body, prāṇa, and states of mind. For Ājñā, practice Ākarandanurāsana by focusing on the thumbnail like Trāṭak, maintaining single-point concentration. For Sahasrāra and overall focus, practice Ekapāda Praṇāmāsana, balancing on one leg with hands at the heart center, focusing on a point and then visualizing it internally. Conclude by observing the effects in the body.
"Āsanas influence and activate a point in our body connected to a cakra."
"If we are concentrated on one point, we will remain without movement."

Yoga is an ancient discipline embodying unity and a holistic approach to well-being. Its global propagation promotes peace and interconnectedness. The world faces turmoil, war, and pollution, requiring fresh thinking and humanism. Security cannot come from arms alone but from a peaceful mind. Problems like greed and corruption are globalized, demanding global solutions and sustainable lifestyles. The spiritual path involves losing negative tendencies to attain peace and feel oneness. Helping others automatically brings happiness and peace.
"Yoga is not about exercise, but to discover the sense of oneness with yourself, the world, and nature."

Do not live a selfish life
8:20 - 8:49 (29 min)
The Vedas are divine knowledge given to humanity for spiritual advancement and self-realization. These scriptures form the foundation of Sanatana Dharma and contain immense energy and mantras. This knowledge marks the beginning of human civilization and is the base for a blissful life. The Vedas are for everyone, not a particular group, and are to be realized according to one's qualities. They consist of four texts: the Rigveda, Yajurveda, Samaveda, and Atharvaveda. The Rigveda declares the oneness of truth, while the Atharvaveda proclaims the victory of truth. The Samaveda details the glory of devotional singing and melody. Human life is meant for protection, harmony, and realizing the divine, not for selfish destruction. Learning and applying this Vedic knowledge is essential for both inner and outer joy.

The Power of Hatha Yoga and the Journey Within
8:55 - 9:32 (37 min)
Haṭha Yoga is the yoga of willpower and inner purification, far beyond mere physical postures. It requires great discipline, with the Haṭha Yogī enduring all difficulties without breaking their rules. This willpower manifests in four forms: the persistent insistence of a child, the unwavering determination of a woman, the absolute decree of a king, and the free resolve of a yogī. A true Haṭha Yogī, through intense sādhanā and six purification techniques, purifies the nāḍīs. This process awakens the Suṣumnā, leading to samādhi and great longevity. The modern reduction to āsanas is actually part of Rāja Yoga. The classical science involves uniting the Iḍā and Piṅgalā channels. Such a yogī, renouncing all, is considered even above divine figures, needing nothing, not even blessings.
"The Haṭha Yogī endures all kinds of difficulties and never breaks their rules."
"He is a tyāgī, one who has renounced everything. He is above even me."

Mastery requires disciplined training, perfection, and practice before one can teach. Everything, from engineering to medicine, follows this sequence. In yoga, mere physical postures are insufficient; one must master the inner world—desires, likes, and dislikes—across the five kośas: the bodies of nourishment, energy, mind, knowledge, and bliss. This inner engineering demands a guide. Without a master, perfection is impossible, as the ten senses—like wild horses—require the mind and intellect to control them. True yoga leads to self-realization through dedicated practice and lineage guidance, not commercial pursuit. Advanced practice may involve secluded, arduous journeys to sacred places like the Himalayas, where natural barriers and specific herbs aid deep meditation. Ultimately, all sincere paths converge.
"After training comes perfection. After perfection, you practice. Then you can teach others."

Abhishek is worship of the entire Universe
10:40 - 11:16 (36 min)
The Śiva Liṅga represents the formless, entire universe, which is pure consciousness and energy. It has no birth, death, father, or mother. Performing abhiṣeka is worshipping the whole universe, as everything comes from Śiva, who is the God of the gods. The Mahāmṛtyuñjaya mantra is a Vedic prayer to Śiva for liberation from death. It seeks a liberation like a ripe fruit separating naturally from its plant, without pain or attachment. Everyone must die, but the goal is to die in such a way that one is liberated and does not die again. This liberation comes through sādhanā, mantra, and devotion. Philosophical argument or belief does not help; there is a final truth. In this age, ritual like abhiṣeka is essential. The water used represents life and the body. All of God's creation, like the human body or honey, is a unique miracle to be respected, not destroyed. Spirituality awakens a universal love for all creatures. The essence is to live in harmony with the entire universe. Every action and mantra contains the divine.
"Everyone dies, and you will also die, but you should die in such a way that you will not die anymore."
"Brahman is the truth, and this whole world is mortal; this is not true."

Navel is the centre of our body
11:20 - 12:04 (44 min)
The human body is the temple made by God, containing the soul. This divine temple must be cared for through pure living, which is itself worship. All spiritual practice begins with self-care, akin to securing one's oxygen mask first. The ultimate aim is to awaken the latent power within this temple and ascend to the cosmic reality. This ascent is facilitated by Nāda, the primordial sound. Nāda originates from the navel, the central seed of the body and consciousness. From this center, vibration ascends through the energy channels and chakras. The sound OM embodies this Nāda. Correct practice requires feeling the vibration from its navel source, not merely intoning it in the head. This resonance brings peace to every cell, guiding the practitioner toward Brahman.
"The second temple is that which God made... our body is our temple."
"Nāda comes from the navel. From that, it goes to different chakras, and the chakras are the power."

Remember the beauty of the world
12:45 - 13:18 (33 min)
The tree is a mirror for the self, revealing the nature of perception and memory. Observe the external world with full concentration, then close your eyes to visualize it. This tests and develops inner sight. The tree, with its roots in earth and branches in air, reflects the human system from the base of the spine to the crown of the head. One is not a singular entity; the body hosts a universe of microscopic life, a community within. Memory stores all experiences. Consciously retain only the beautiful and nourishing visions, letting go of the unpleasant. These stored impressions become the material for deep meditation. When the mind is scattered, return to these reservoirs of natural beauty to restore focus and peace.
"Similarly, it is with our spine, from the Mūlādhāra Cakra to the top of the head."
"So when you cannot concentrate, you cannot meditate, then go to that beautiful vision, that beautiful view."

Use it, or you will lose it
13:25 - 14:11 (46 min)
The horizon of being is the ultimate spiritual goal of becoming one with infinite space. Humans possess intellect but require a teacher to guide them beyond worldly knowledge. All beings follow divine instinct, yet humans become distracted by transient forms like changing hair color or accumulating wealth. Life cycles like a tree's leaves, emerging and falling, with essence continually reborn in new forms. The horizon appears as a mirage, always receding as one approaches, symbolizing the elusive nature of enlightenment. True realization is merging into boundless space where all dualities cease. Spiritual practice is essential; inner wisdom must be used or it is lost. The guru is the essential guide to this liberation.
"Use it or lose it."

The immortal Self is the truth of your being, realized through surrender and patience. The story of Naciketā illustrates the path. He waited three days for Yamarāja, the lord of death, undistracted by temptations. His sincere inquiry into what lies beyond death revealed the immortal ātmā. This knowledge freed him. Similarly, spiritual progress requires unwavering dedication and the patience to endure life's shaping trials. Attachments at death bind the soul to further cycles, as shown by the story of a man who kept postponing his spiritual journey and was reborn repeatedly near his family. Surrender to the Guru's guidance is essential. Do not analyze the Guru's instructions; simply follow. He sees all time and shapes you for your ultimate freedom. Trust completely and let go.

Victory Of The Divine
16:05 - 16:54 (49 min)
The light of the saint and the fire of the ego are the two energies within. Holy saints appear in human form, sharing the same culture and appearance, yet their inner experience is of oneness with all creatures. They possess miraculous abilities, or siddhis, used for understanding, not domination. The fire is the energy of anger, jealousy, hate, and greed, which burns and destroys countless beings. The divine rain is the sudden peace and love that follows, quenching that fire. The aim is to realize the inner self, the Ātmā, which is the uncreated light, distinct from the created body and mind. To renounce is not to abandon material life but to relinquish inner longing and the ego's fire. True spirituality is beyond dogma and conflict, seeing the divine light in all paths and creatures.
"Sin is the result of causing pain to others, to all creatures: physical, mental, emotional, intellectual, social, political, economic."

The purpose of human life is to realize the Ātmā within the heart, moving from ignorance to the light of liberation. We are bound to the outer world and identify with thoughts and feelings, believing we are separate individuals. This causes suffering and the cycle of birth and death. The guru provides practices to overcome this false identification and ego. Through devotion and these tools, one can purify the inner self. The goal is to recognize the oneness of the inner self and the Divine, which already exists within. The outer world is manifold, but the inner Puruṣa is one. Do not waste the precious human life in worldly pursuits.
"Only your guru can free you from that. He can lead you from this ignorance to the light—the light of wisdom, the light of knowledge, the light of liberation."
