Ujjāyī Prāṇāyāma is a meditation technique that leads to sahaja samādhi and self-inquiry. The practice involves inhaling through both nostrils and exhaling through the mouth slowly. Apply ujjāyī mudrā by pressing the chin toward the chest. Breathe deeply, aware of the breath ascending and descending between the navel and the eyebrow center. Feel fresh cool air on inhalation from Ājñā Cakra to Maṇipūra, and warm air on the lower lip during exhalation. This prāṇāyāma strengthens organs, supplies maximum oxygen, and brings physical health. It calms the vṛttis, making the mind peaceful. The body is like a vessel; the mind is like water within. If the vessel is steady, the mind becomes steady. Mastering the body means mastering the mind. The practice leads to sahaja samādhi, a temporary spontaneous absorption. It deepens one within, feeling one with the self. It is a technique for self-inquiry, ātmā anubhūti. It also develops willpower through saṅkalpa. One should remember the saṅkalpa and pray for protection of the spiritual path. The practice includes relaxing the body, no movement, and normalizing breath after deep cycles. Ultimately, it leads to meditation on the self and peace for all creation. "This kind of prāṇāyāma leads us to sahaja samādhi, spontaneous coming to the samādhi that is temporary." "The body is like a vessel, like a pot. And the mind is like water. If the pot is moving, the water is also moving. If the pot is steady, then the mind is also steady." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

A silent prayer for global peace was offered. This practice is Mauna Yoga, an inner prayer conducted in mental silence. Governments have advised quiet in places of gathering. The prayer is directed inwardly to the divine for all beings worldwide. This is a time for universal brotherhood and collective prayer for peace.

Service is provided selflessly, as all sustenance comes from the divine. Therefore, one should act without fear or anger, sustained by faith. "All religions should join together. We all should pray to God that all humans, all animals, and this whole globe remain in a very clear, peaceful atmosphere." "Yoga is for harmony, peace, and understanding. One should not think negatively of a person." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The inner fire of tapasyā purifies the self through renunciation and steadfastness. All experiences—good and bad—arise from within our own consciousness, not from external sources. We project our inner negativity onto others, but blaming others only multiplies those negative qualities within our own awareness. True renunciation means letting go of attachment, anger, hate, and desire. Tapasyā is the inner fire that burns away all that is temporary and negative. This spiritual discipline does not require a remote location; it can be practiced wherever you live. Your consistent practice can make your own dwelling a holy place, radiating spiritual energy. The mind is restless and deceptive, like a reflection you cannot grasp directly; you must go beyond it. Your mantra and inner will are your supports. Ultimately, you alone must walk the path to quench your spiritual thirst; the source will not come to you. Happiness and divinity are already within you, given freely. "Everything is within us. Be happy with this. And if there is weakness, then pray for that energy." "Tapasyā is a fire which burns all negative qualities; everything burns. Fire is one of the best elements which purifies everything." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

The human being is composed of five sheaths, progressing from the gross to the subtle. The first is the physical Annamaya Kośa, nourished by food. Next is the Prāṇamaya Kośa, the sheath of vital energy. Then comes the Manomaya Kośa, the mental sheath. The fourth is the Vijñānamaya Kośa, the sheath of knowledge and discernment. The final sheath is the Ānandamaya Kośa, the sheath of bliss. All illness and karma originate in the bliss sheath and descend through the others to manifest in the physical body. A spiritual master seeks a capable disciple to impart his essence. Disciples are of three types: supreme, middling, and inferior. One must either participate in creation through marriage and family or attain Brahmajñāna, liberating knowledge. To linger without fulfilling either purpose is to remain stuck. Spiritual practice involves purifying action, speech, and thought across all five sheaths. The accumulated impressions from these layers form one's destiny. A true disciple ensures the master's spiritual legacy continues, just as a child continues a family line. "Every creature born with a physical body must participate in creation." "All illness begins from the Ānandamaya Kośa, coming from above. It descends step by step to finally attack the physical body." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
