How can we go on the path of spirituality?

16:30 - 17:53|Recorded on 7 Nov 2025
The essence of human life and the spiritual path is revealed through sacred tradition. Human birth is rare and granted intellect and free will within a limited time. The purpose is to realize the divine Self, the all-pervasive ātmā identical in all beings. This realization ends suffering. The Guru is essential, considered greater than God for the seeker. The path requires balancing worldly duties with spiritual practice. Foundational disciplines like purity in diet and conduct are necessary. The eight limbs of Yoga provide the structure, beginning with ethical restraints and observances, not merely physical postures. True progress involves inward withdrawal, concentration, meditation, and ultimately union. Devotion progresses through stages of listening, remembrance, and surrender. The final knowledge stages involve merging one's consciousness with the Guru's, achieving complete detachment from all worldly objects and identifications. The journey is one road with many names, culminating in liberation. "If there is someone greater than God, then he is the guru." "That which liberates you is called vidyā."

Practising sarva hitta asanas

18:00 - 18:44 | From: 9 Apr 2021
A session of Sarvahitāsana, a posture good for all, is practiced. Discipline is required, including adhering to meal times. The practice involves standing postures and movements. Interlock fingers, place hands on the head, and stretch upward. Move side to side with legs together. With legs apart, raise hands and bend to each side. Stretch and turn the torso. Maintain straight posture and avoid strain on the knees. Concentration is essential for balance; focus on a single, unmoving point. Conclude with mantras and prayer. Afterward, maintain discipline through silent meditation, without consuming food or drink. "Sarva means all, Sarvahita means good for all." "Concentrate on one point far away. Only one point, then you will not go like this."

Yoga means uniting

18:50 - 19:32 | From: 17 Nov 2021
Yoga in daily life is unity with the divine principle present in all existence. Life originates from and is sustained by water, which constitutes our bodies and the world. All creatures, including those unseen beneath the earth or in the air, are interconnected through life. The natural world operates on consumption, where creatures eat one another. A human is defined by moving beyond this, by not killing, by showing love and care to all. God is not a separate entity to be seen externally; God is within every creature and within your own heart. We are all fundamentally one, a unity temporarily experiencing separation, like a single drop of water merging back into the ocean. Our individual lives and bodies will eventually dissolve and return to the one source. Therefore, the practice of yoga is this conscious unification. It requires purifying the heart, relinquishing anger and jealousy, and acting with devotion. It involves caring for the body through exercise and pure food, but more importantly, it is an inner alignment. True yoga is living in harmony, causing no harm, and recognizing the divine in all. "One in all and all in one. One in all and one in all." "If you want to know God, He is in every creature, in every creature." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

We need peace in the whole world

19:40 - 20:25 | From: 11 Mar 2022
Peace is the essential state and practice. The word "Śāntiḥ" encompasses perfect happiness and is invoked to conclude prayers. The world desperately needs this peace. Our practice and mantras are good and must be shared. Life is like a flame sustained by energy; when that is gone, the flame goes out. Our bodies contain the five elements. We should begin the day with reverence for earth and water. Observing nature, like birds and dogs greeting the sun, reveals a shared vitality. Dietary choices, like abstaining from meat, can bring more peace and clarity. Personal rituals, like morning Pūjā, connect us to this energy. We should send prayers for others from our own prāṇa. The flame of a lamp is powerful; showing it to a child can aid sleep. Our practices and words are a spiritual wealth to be given to all. We will face difficulties but should build and give goodness. Practice Trāṭak by gazing softly at a flame's clean light, then closing the eyes. "Śānti is both a feminine principle and the state of perfect happiness and joy." "Life is like this fire. When everything, like ghee, is consumed, it will go away." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

We must be in unity

20:30 - 21:24 | From: 20 Dec 2021
Yoga and daily life lead to peace, purity, and realization of the Absolute. Yoga practice is peaceful and extends beyond the physical body to Paramātmā. Food must be very clean and pure. Many medicines contain hidden animal products, which is not good. In India, pure yogic food is traditionally given. Some teachers maintain this purity completely. Modern food nourishes diseases like cancer. Cancer always existed but now increases. Yoga centers and gurus follow sanātana dharma, teaching pure practices, exercises, meditation, and right food. Some now avoid speaking of dietary restrictions. All paths and techniques lead to one reality. India’s ancient knowledge is vast, with Vedas considered very old. The four Vedas and scriptures preserve this wisdom. Before invasions, the Gurukul system offered broad, deep education. The great library at Takṣaśilā burned for six months, destroying much knowledge. The system persisted until removed by the British. When Europe had nomads, India had culture. Efforts recover lost knowledge, as the tradition remains a source of truth. "Yoga practice is that which is very peaceful and harmonious, and not only for the physical body, but further, for all, till Parabrahma, Paramātmā." "We should all be one... They are teaching the same thing, and we are all coming to one point, because that is the reality." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The Power of Satsaṅg and Awareness

3:20 - 3:28 | From 12 Jul 2026
The power of satsaṅg and awareness determines outcomes. Two friends chose differently. One attended satsaṅg physically but mentally dwelled on a missed movie. The other went to the movie but his awareness briefly touched satsaṅg. Afterward, the satsaṅg attendee got a thorn in his foot. The moviegoer found a gold coin. They sought explanation. The teacher revealed the satsaṅg attendee was destined for a car crash. Physical presence reduced it to a thorn. The moviegoer was destined for a box of gold coins. Fleeting awareness of satsaṅg reduced it to one coin. Physical presence without awareness still mitigates misfortune. Mental presence without physical attendance still grants reward. The power of satsaṅg transforms fate. It can make a king a beggar or a beggar a king. Everything depends on consciousness and awareness. "That is the power of bhakti, that is the power of satsaṅg, and that is the power of Gurudeva." "It all depends on the awareness and how we go forward with our lives."

The Guru Paramparā and the Power of Devotion

21:30 - 21:48 | From 12 Jul 2026
The Guru Paramparā and the Power of Devotion The Bhavānī Aṣṭakam reveals that all worldly relationships are mental modifications, and only the Divine Mother provides true movement and refuge. Śaṅkarācārya calls family ties vṛttis—thoughts, distractions. The devotee confesses knowing neither tantra, mantra, pūjā, nor yoga. Neither puṇya nor sacred places are known. The devotee is a doer of bad karma, indulged in bad company, with bad intellect, bad sight, and uncontrolled speech. No other deity is known—not Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva, Indra, Sūrya, or Candra. Only the Mother grants gati, movement forward. She is the sole refuge amid conflicts, enemies in water, sky, mountains, or forests. The devotee is weak, deaf, dumb, sick, and helpless. The story of Toṭakācārya demonstrates this devotion. Unable to understand or remember teachings, he wept by the river, praying to the Mother. Through pure-hearted faith, he received knowledge overnight and returned chanting a complex stotra for Śaṅkarācārya. Devotion with purity of heart and conscious mind brings grace. Without faith and devotion, nothing works. "O Bhavānī, only you are mine." "O Bhavānī, only you are the one who gives me the gati." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Organic farming in Netherlands

From 3 Aug 2023
A farm's journey from industrial production to living in harmony with nature. The operation shifted from unprofitable mass cultivation to a diverse, organic system. This includes greenhouses using rainwater and biological pest controls. A large food forest integrates vegetables, fruit trees, and nitrogen-fixing plants. The focus is on sustainability, natural cycles, and creating a resilient ecosystem. The work is driven by passion and a good feeling, valued more than financial return alone. The aim is to grow healthy food while enhancing the land for the future. "Nature can do a lot. So, if a plant is sick, then it can make itself better." "It is much more important than money: a good feeling, nice to be busy with your passion." Filming location: Netherlands
