The mind is never at peace. We seek peace but experience only moments of it. The mind jumps like a monkey, always thinking, never still. When body and mind align in the present, inner peace arises. We cannot change what is meant to happen. Worrying distracts from spiritual growth. We are neither the king nor the beggar in the dream. We are only the observer. Nothing is permanent. We are born with nothing and leave with nothing. Attachment causes suffering. Vairāgya is having everything without attachment. Success and failure both pass. Desires create problems. We create our own problems and must solve them ourselves. Actions should be done with pure consciousness. Enemies like desire, anger, greed, ego, and jealousy awaken easily. Expectations lead to sadness. Everything in life is incomplete by design. If we had everything, ego would dominate. Wealth, family, and body stay behind at death. Only the soul continues. A Sadguru shows the path, like a light revealing a rope is not a snake. Human birth is rare and precious. Do not waste it. The past cannot be changed. The future is unknown. Be present. We are the lion, not the sheep. The mirror is dusty. The Guru cleans it. All happiness resides within. Discover it through going within. Doubt yourself less. Practice conscious silence. Words have power. Forgive truly to heal yourself. Let every action be meditation with pure intention. The soul is the only stable thing. When it unites with the Supreme Self, there is ultimate bliss. Grace on oneself is higher than Guru's grace. The final choice is always our own. "Higher than Guru Kṛpā is kutkī kṛpā, which means grace on ourselves." "Once we go within, we will get the answers to everything." Filming location: Bratislava, Slovakia

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

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

Yoga practice requires synchronization, observation, and depth. Begin by relaxing completely in Ānandāsana, feeling the body's heaviness and observing the complete yoga breath. Synchronized movement creates a harmonized energy, unlike individual rhythms which disperse it. This principle applies to physical postures and collective chanting, balancing the ego. Practice with control, not quick movements, to strengthen core muscles and influence the thyroid gland and energy centers. Observe the body's sensations and circulation after each posture. The worst outcome is believing one already knows everything; consistent practice reveals new dimensions within the same postures. "Once, the first secretary of the Indian embassy in Zagreb was at a seminar. He was so surprised that we were practicing all together, not each in our own rhythm. What he said was, 'Oh, it’s a completely different energy. It is so harmonized.'" "Try to chant together, not too loud, and be aware of our collective sound. This is also excellent against our ego."
