This lecture details the Śaṅkha Prakṣālana and Kunjal Kriyā purification techniques. Śaṅkha Prakṣālana is the cleansing of the entire intestine using warm, lightly salted water, performed early in the morning on an empty stomach. It involves drinking water and performing specific movements and postures to guide the water through the system. This practice is beneficial for conditions like high blood pressure and digestive issues but is not advised for those under 15, individuals with active ulcers or hernias, or pregnant women. Preparation includes a light diet the prior evening. The process continues until the expelled water runs clear. A strict diet must follow for at least one week, avoiding alcohol, meat, fish, eggs, and raw foods. Kunjal Kriyā is the cleansing of the stomach, performed after Śaṅkha Prakṣālana by drinking unsalted water to the point of fullness and then voluntarily expelling it. This practice helps purify the stomach and can aid those with bronchial asthma. The session concludes with rest and a meal of specially prepared kicharī. "The best time to do Śaṅkha Prakṣālana is in March, the beginning of September, the end of May, and before the winter." "After Śaṅkha Prakṣālana, you have to keep a diet for at least, strictly, seven days, one week, and up to one month." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A poet's reach extends beyond the sun's light. Where sunlight ends, true poetry begins, born from selfless devotion, not ambition. Ambition is ego; it ensures failure. Even a slight doubt rejects a disciple from grace, returning one to endless cycles. Therefore, proceed gently, mastering the inner heat of ego. True service seeks nothing but to serve in every life. Writing from intellect alone is forgettable; writing from divine love creates scripture. There are two writers: troublemakers who divide and peacemakers who unite. One must be a peacemaker. A yogi's consciousness can traverse solar systems, but this requires perfection in work, devotion, knowledge, and meditation. Idle meditation, without engaged action, breeds restless thoughts and failure. One must first clean the mind and surroundings through karma yoga. Modern suffering arises from separating ethics and spirituality from daily life, business, and politics. True creation stems from selfless vision and devotion, like the architect who builds for beauty, not just utility. The mind is a restless monkey, controlled only by ending attachment and "my-ness." Meditation is essential, but it must be built upon a foundation of purified action and thought. "Where this sunlight will no longer be visible. Beyond that, a poet can go." "Unless you give freedom to your deep, burning desire, for whatever it is, you cannot calm down your mind." Filming location: London, UK

Morning Satsang with Swamiji from Vep, Hungary

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, travel
