A Gathering in Grace

11:05 - 11:53|Recorded on 10 Mar 2023
It is good to see everything, to understand fully the practices and mantras. This understanding brings greater happiness and allows one to see all spiritual activities clearly. The mind often works in confusion, attached to worldly things and selfish actions, which leads to suffering. The sincere prayer is to be awakened from this sleep, to be turned toward selflessness and real knowledge, and to become a giver. The gathering itself is a beautiful opportunity, a reason for happiness, with the promise of more to come. "O Lord, bless me that I do not waste my life." "Turn me into the lover of selflessness."

The calling of Sri Alakhpuriji

12:00 - 12:11 | From: 18 Mar 2023
The transmission of grace through a sacred lineage is the foundation of spiritual awakening. This lineage is not a historical record but a living current of consciousness. It is a direct channel for divine energy and wisdom. Each name represents a perfected state of being, a beacon of realized truth. To invoke these names is to connect with that unbroken stream of light. It aligns the individual soul with the supreme source. This invocation is itself a form of worship and a request for guidance. It establishes the sanctity of the teaching space by honoring the source. "The transmission of grace through a sacred lineage is the foundation of spiritual awakening." "To invoke these names is to connect with that unbroken stream of light."

Bhajans from Oosterhout

12:15 - 13:20 | From: 21 May 2023
The sole longing is for the dust of the holy feet, surpassing all worldly and heavenly desires, even liberation itself. Meeting the true Guru dispels all mental confusion and wrong knowledge, revealing the inner truth. The individual flame unites with the cosmic flame when all doubt is gone. External forms veil the one eternal truth within. Many speak only few words, but the Guru's word is profound. The devotee seeks to be accepted at those lotus feet. A true yogi, drunk on the divine name, is imperturbable, seeing no distinction between diamond and stone, free from all desire and fear. "Please give me the dust of your holy lotus feet. This is the only thing I am searching for and longing for." "He’s unmovable, and he’s strong or firm as a mountain, he’s the same in life and he’s the same in death."

Practice from Wellington with MM Vivekpuri

18:00 - 18:59 | From: 11 May 2013
The body is the foundation for calming the mind. A restless mind creates a restless body, just as boiling water makes a pot shake. Yoga aims to still these thought waves, citta-vṛtti, to reveal the true self within. Directly calming the mind is difficult, so we begin with the body. Through āsanas and movement, we influence the mind toward stillness. Awareness of the breath is a scientific method; focusing on it activates brain centers for relaxation. Each posture is an experiment in awareness, balancing the body and mind. This mindful practice is itself a form of meditation. "Yogaḥ Citta Vṛtti Nirodhaḥ... yoga starts when we calm down this citta-vṛtti, these thought waves." "When we are aware of our breathing process... immediately after a few seconds... you will become more and more relaxed."

Rules and regulations are important

19:05 - 19:56 | From: 13 Aug 2017
Sādhana rests upon four essential principles: conduct, thought, diet, and recreation. Discipline in behavior is paramount, encompassing punctuality and consideration. Thought must be guarded, as exchanging distracting thoughts creates disturbances within the mind and intellect, leading to afflictions and obstacles. Therefore, many masters impose strict silence during practice. Such rigorous retreats, even for corporate leaders, serve as treatments for stress and psychic turmoil by forcing confrontation with internal heat and agitation, which are then calmed by the Master's guidance. Personal transformation through consistent practice affects one's entire environment, bringing peace to relationships. The essence is to speak only what is necessary, avoiding idle talk. Adherence to these principles of conduct, thought, moderate eating, and mindful activity forms the foundation of successful spiritual practice. "Exchanging your thoughts will disturb you, definitely. Because such thoughts in sādhana create vikṣepa." "Speak what is necessary. That’s very important for sādhana."

Highlights

Awakening within a human body

23:20 - 0:17 | From 1 Dec 2008
The heart is central to spiritual development and the awakening of divine joy through Kundalini. Destiny is the fruit of karma; every situation has meaning. Face destiny to be free from it. The heart feels everything quicker than the intellect. A divine light resides within it, the light of the Ātmā. Every creature with a heart carries God's manifestation. Negative energy produces desires and fear, while desirelessness brings true happiness and richness. This body is a wondrous creation where God resides and speaks. No heart is empty of the divine presence. Harsh words wound the heart, and only love and mantra can heal it. When Kundalini awakens and touches the heart, it overflows with devotion and happiness, leading to bhāva samādhi. This state is the highest joy and a healing process for the body. Understanding the meaning of words in prayer or song allows them to penetrate the consciousness and induce this samādhi. Sound, light, and energy from mantras have a healing effect, traveling through the nāḍīs to awaken divine love. "When there is a problem, everyone remembers God." "The happiest and richest person is one who has no desires, neither physically nor materially." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 502

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
