A Divine Call and the Search for a True Guru

23:00 - 23:48|Recorded on 8 Jan 2011
A devotee recounts her spiritual journey, from a divine call to finding her Guru. "I turned to my right side, and I could see Śrī Kṛṣṇa in my heart, holding a small bowl... and asking for kheer." "He looked into my eyes and said, 'You are looking for a true guru, haven’t you?'" Rukhswani, an Indian woman living in New Zealand, describes a 1992 vision of Lord Krishna compelling her to make a milk pudding, which leads her to a satsang with Swāmī Śrī Māheśvarañjī. She expresses her search for a true guru and later travels to India, where she meets Holy Gurujī, receives mantra-dīkṣā, and undertakes translation work for him. She shares stories of divine grace, obedience, and her profound emotional connection to her Guru over subsequent years. Filming location: Wellington, New Zealand

The Third Eye and the Awakening of the Mūlādhāra Cakra

1:15 - 1:53 | From: 12 Sep 2000
A spiritual discourse on the third eye and the Mūlādhāra Cakra. "The third eye signifies wisdom. All your karmas will be burned, and everything becomes pure." "When we begin to awaken the Mūlādhāra Cakra, it is a wonderful feeling. You feel like you are coming out of darkness, like a seed which was under the earth now begins to sprout." The speaker delivers a teaching on subtle anatomy, beginning with the wisdom of the third eye before focusing on the foundational Mūlādhāra Cakra. Using the symbol's imagery—the lotus, the elephant of prosperity, the coiled serpent of time, and the Śiva Liṅga—they explain the cakra's role as the seat of dormant energy (Śakti) and its awakening as the start of the spiritual journey toward union with supreme consciousness. The talk includes practical spiritual advice, references to Gaṇeśa, and concludes with a chant. Filming location: Umag, Croatia

He discusses the importance of awareness in daily life, using personal anecdotes about zoning out while driving and reducing phone use. He stresses that selfless service (seva) requires devotion (bhava) and explains unity through the metaphor of beads on a thread of Guru Bhakti. He shares a story from the Ramayana about a dog seeking justice to illustrate forgiveness and the dangers of ego, concluding with teachings on living in the present and protecting dharma.

Highlights

The truth is tapas

8:10 - 9:16 | From 1 Mar 2007
A spiritual discourse reflecting on the Kumbh Mela and warning against false spiritual powers. "If you bathe during that constellation, the nectar still has an effect on you—meaning it cleans your karmas and blesses you with immortality." "There is no austerity more than truth. To follow the truth is the biggest austerity, tapasyā—and no greater sin than to lie." Swami Avatarpuri begins by describing his profound experience at the Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, taking a sacred bath for all devotees. He then shifts to a cautionary theme, recounting stories of Holy Guruji exposing fraudulent fortune tellers and so-called healers. He warns devotees against those who claim siddhis (powers) like seeing auras or predicting futures, arguing these are obstacles to true spiritual progress. He advises focusing on genuine devotion and practice, sharing a personal story where Mahaprabhuji counseled him to be like a steadfast banyan tree, free from expectation.
