The path of yoga and the sound of Oṃ leads to liberation. Learning Oṃ is easy, but many do not fully intone it. Understanding yoga begins with Aum. Chanting Oṃ from the navel to the crown chakra makes meditation peaceful. Prāṇāyāma serves physical health and yogic consciousness. Modern practice often focuses only on postures, but yoga has no competition; challenge arises from ego. True practice is for all, not only ascetics. Laziness is not yoga. The body contains 72,000 nāḍīs, with Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumṇā being primary. These channels influence health and mind. The Viśuddhi Cakra purifies poison, like anger, which harms the body. Unresolved anger causes suffering in relationships and health. Small grievances create major pain; clear them immediately. Inner purification through the chakras cleanses negativity. Practice requires discipline, not using meditation as an escape. The face reveals one's inner state; nothing can be hidden. Various yogas lead to supreme consciousness. Meditation means focusing only on the mantra to find inner peace. "According to yogic sādhanā, if we can understand what yoga is, then the first path is definitely Aum." "In yoga, there is no competition and no challenge. We do not give the challenge. If you want to give the challenge, then it means you have lost, because now you are the ego."

Water is life, especially in the desert, where monsoon rains are short and rare. To address a severe drought, a rainwater harvesting initiative was launched. The first step was building a large lake to capture monsoon rains, as groundwater had become too saline. This project uses traditional techniques and watershed management to create a sustainable model. A network of dams and canals directs rain toward the lake. When the rains finally come, the land soaks up the water, and the excess fills the reservoir, temporarily turning the desert green. This lake now serves all life. The initiative will be extended to other locations, providing water, employment, and health benefits. The ashram also provides a fire truck for emergency water supply, believing helping hands are most valuable. Support is needed to complete these humanitarian projects. "Only those who live in a desert genuinely know that water is life." "Helping hands have more value than folded hands." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India DVD 260

A guided yoga practice focusing on breath, alignment, and awareness. Begin by relaxing completely on the floor, connecting breath to movement. Practice Pavanamuktāsana on your back for digestion, then in a standing position for balance and focus. Maintain spinal alignment and initiate movements from the hip joints. Be aware of your pelvis and avoid locking the knees. Standing poses like Ekapāda Uttānāsana strengthen the legs and improve concentration. Practice with a firm surface for better balance. Āsanas like Bhujaṅgāsana require elbows close to the body to protect the shoulders. Deep, abdominal breathing cleans the inner channels, allowing prāṇa to flow. The practice generates warmth, deepens circulation, and integrates body and mind through conscious movement and breath control. "Pavanamuktāsana is excellent for digestion." "When we start to breathe a little deeper, we immediately have more energy and less tension." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The science of prāṇa and the practice of Kriyā govern the journey of consciousness. Prāṇa and Apāna are two forces within the body. Their union in the Maṇipūra chakra during sound vibration allows consciousness to ascend. This pure prāṇa flow merges the Iḍā and Piṅgalā channels into the Suṣumnā, like rivers becoming one. This current transforms into Nāda, the resonant sound that is ultimate reality. At life's end, the soul's direction is determined by final attachments and accumulated karma. If mantra and pure devotion are present, it proceeds directly to the Sahasrāra. The initiated Kriyā establishes a sacred but fragile connection. Neglecting practice or embracing negativity severs this thread, placing one at a perilous spiritual precipice. Practice is the inner engineering of the body's mechanisms through Prāṇāyāma and pure living. Purify the self to master the self. "Prāṇa and Apāna unite and bring that consciousness through the Suṣumnā Nāḍī towards the Sahasrāra Chakra." "If the mantra is there, if pure thoughts are there, devotion is there, it proceeds directly to the Sahasrāra." Filming location: Vép, Hungary
