Come here to practice yoga

A spiritual leader addresses a gathering at an ashram, discussing the sanctity of the location and the community's service work.

"Our fruits here are all very good. Our vegetation is very good. We can take a long, very good walk. This is truly beautiful, very good."

"We help many, many people, and the animals, and cows, and the honeybees. It is very good that, thanks to this, we have another opportunity to help not only people but also animals and bees."

The speaker begins with chants and praises the ashram's pure environment, encouraging attendees to visit for spiritual practice (sādhanā). He outlines the community's charitable activities, mentioning affiliations with organizations like the United Nations, and discusses future travel plans to India to further this work. The talk concludes with blessings.

How are you? Yakṣamātā. Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇ Bhagavān kī Jai. Dev Puruṣa Mahādev kī jai. Mādhavānandjī Bhagavān kī jai. Alak Puruṣa Mahādev kī Jai. Satya Sanātana Dharma kī Jai. Om Śānti. Om Śānti. Jai. Yes, we had two beautiful days; we enjoyed a lot. It is especially beautiful here—very good air, very good. We can come out of this room. How good is the air? In our ashram, the whole land is such that no other water enters it. This means everything is good: our air, our fruits, everything. There are no chemicals. The water comes only from God, falling as pure water. It’s unbelievable how good it is here. From the other side, water tries to come in, but water is already flowing the other direction, so it does not enter. Thus, our fruits here are all very good. Our vegetation is very good. We can take a long, very good walk. This is truly beautiful, very good. We should keep this ashram very pure and clean. We should do our sādhanā. And what is our sādhanā here? We sit, meditate, and exercise. We are doing all the techniques, the very, very practical things here. After that, when we come out, it is beautiful, again beautiful. Each tree is a very, very holy tree. In that, we are all happy. It must not be only sometimes; whenever you have time, you should come here—for one Sunday, or for these two days. Yes, come here. The food is very good, and the fruits are good. We do our yoga exercises, and especially, we have Bhagavān Dīp Nārāyaṇ Mahāprabhujī and Holy Gurujī and Devpurījī in this temple. Come here and make mālā. When it is not winter, it is a little bit cool. Yes, this is like in the Himalayas. We can sit with nice cloth, then we really feel very good. Or come, praṇām, and go. There is one room that is warm. People from here are also having prayer there, so we should keep one room warm. They are from other places where people are also coming. I hope very soon it will open, country to country. Then we will come to India too, and we will have a very nice program at that time. Now there will be a very beautiful program about Holī, Gurujīs. Which Holī Gurujīs are from Austria? We made it: Śrī Svāmī Madhvanājī, World Peace Council, United Nations of America. So these Mahāprabhujīs, or holy Gurujīs, and Madhavānandjīs, will ever be in the United Nations there. It is for that—whenever there is some problem or something is needed, we are there to help them: for poor people, old people, the trees, the forest, many things. It is not only in some other countries, but in these countries also, so it comes very much, and they are helping according to the United Nations. We have in Australia, "Yoga and Daily Life"; we also have it in the United Nations. There we are also working for the many people there and in America. There is also "Yoga in Life" in America. So this is very, very good; we help many, many people, and the animals, and cows, and the honeybees. It is very good that, thanks to this, we have another opportunity to help not only people but also animals and bees—for the birds, and many things to do there. So we can help; that is what we are for. The United Nations doesn’t give money, but they gave us the capacity to do something. So they are doing everything through that. This is the best that we have in "Yoga and in Life"—this very great job. I am going now to India, and when I come back, we will plan very nicely what to do in the United Nations. In the United Nations, they give all the guidelines on what to do and what not to do, like this. So we will get—we will ask our doctor from Vienna and our Radha, and from there we will get whatever we need. In this way, we are doing not only for our body but for all. But good people—yes, one person cannot do it in their own house alone. Then what will it do for us? So we have to come together and go further, and we will do it. So, thank you. Many blessings, everything. And Alak Purījī, you have all the pictures. Whoever still has not done it, you can take it. No, if you haven’t done it yet, you can do it. Hari Om. Hari Om. Dīp Nārāyaṇ Bhagavān, Alak Purījī Mahādeva, Devadhī Dev, Devī Śvar, Mahādeva, Mahāprabhujī, Satguru Svāmī Madhvanānjī Bhagavān, Satya Sanātana Dharma, and the blessings of all my brothers and sisters. Požehnání pro všechny mé bratry a sestry. A teď už musím jít.
