Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān kī Jai, Guru Viśva Bhādaśāh. Arājasu Nosarakār, O merciful Gurudev, please listen to my prayer. Pranām Gurudev, Hari Om. Dear friends, we will slowly start with the practice, and I promise I will try to make it easy. We will also practice in the standing position. For practice, we also need... Come, come near, come near. You see how many places are here. Come, come. Yes, please. A little more, please, come, come. We have a lot of space. And also for our practice, we need a little silence. Yes? Okay. Thank you. Because when we practice, we try to practice in such a way that we are slowly coming inside, into our inner space. We practice and we try. Please, a little silence. OK. We practice āsanas and we practice yoga. We practice āsanas, we practice yoga for calming down our mind, to make it so that we feel inner peace. Everything that we are practicing is in that way: to calm down, to relax, to feel our whole body, and all the time be aware of each movement. Not just a practice, but try that all the time we are aware of each movement. Now stand in the position, and separate your feet a little. Relax your hands, arms, as I said, legs, aha, okay. Hands, arms, upper part of the body, relax, relax. Like in Ānanda Āsana, we try to relax the whole body, and also we try to feel how we are feeling in the body, in the mind, emotionally. Just try to observe yourself. We talked in these last six weeks a lot about Mauna. But Mauna is not only that you are not talking. Mauna is not just that you don’t speak. Antar Mauna is more important: to stop this little inner dialogue, and all the time quarreling. Just relax. Now we will slowly stretch our body. Interlock your fingers and put them on your head. Inhale, stretch, and go up on the toes, more, more... and exhale. Two, stretch, more up, exhale. But when you stretch your body, try not to go with the pelvis back. Three, inhale. Stretch more and go back. Exhale. And once more. Inhale. And exhale. Relax. Also, in every class, we talk about breathing. Because breathing is one of the most important things. Place one palm on your navel. Feel that you relax your abdomen. Nice, relaxed. Not this. It’s only a few centimeters, but deep inside should be relaxed. And now, try to be aware that with inhalation, your abdomen becomes big. And with exhalation, slowly go down. Without knowing how to breathe, no āsana will be correct in a good way to practice. We need to know for every āsana to breathe nicely with complete yoga breathing. For our life, we also need to know how to breathe. Now, feel this middle part. We hear many times from Viśvagurujī that when we were born, at that time, we got a number of inhalations and exhalations. We often hear that when we are born, we have a predetermined number of breaths and exhales. That is in a symbolic way, of course. In a symbolic way. And when we use the last inhale, with exhalation we will go. What does it mean if we are breathing short and quick, only with the clavicular area? Now be aware of this: with inhalation, this side is going up, and with exhalation, down. And try to keep your thoracic area without movement. If we breathe only with this upper part, we will be in stress, we will go into depression, have little energy, and our life will not be so relaxed. And now, relax your hands. And then, next, we will try to connect these three—abdomen, middle part, and clavicular—into one. Inhale abdomen, middle part, and clavicular. You may come a little further, and exhale: clavicular, middle, and abdomen. And continue in your own rhythm. Why is breathing so important? I don’t know how it is in your language, but I think that we are Slavic language mostly here, and we said that you must live with the full love, Unich Plucha. When you leave, because there are too many people, eh? No. Aha. No. All should go like this. And then you are going one foot, and then it’s going to be... yeah. Go directly. Slowly inhale. Stay there, okay? Little Kumbhaka. For a second, and then again, go, and exhale. Yes. Oho, now we are new, Hogyar. Yes. One. I’m always looking. Yes, I’m always looking to see who is doing it. Little Kumbha. Troška zádrž. And exhale. I wait for you. You should sit. You should sit there. Inhale, yes. And all is... when then all is there, here, yes. Then sit again, yes. And exhale, yes, and relax. Also, breathing in this way, that when you inhale, you have a short kumbhak. It is very important. We were eating out today, and then in the stomach, that’s why he knows that he will sit down like this. So he’s a master, the very best. And now we will also make a little movement with the shoulders. Put the fingers on the shoulders, also try together. Inhale, up, feel the stretching of the muscles, and exhale. Two, it’s very light. She’s doing very good. Go ahead, please. And once more, inhale. So, I tell you tomorrow and every other time that He will give you like this, and they will practice that like this. You are from many countries. But you should give this, what he gives. Very nice, he gives. So in other countries, people, there you are. And you should also always do it like this. Whole countries will be very okay. Now, interlock your fingers behind the head. When we are going left and right, first, not in this position, but try open. Second, not in this position, but try open. Second, not in this position, but try open. Second, not in this position—pelvis back because you have pain—and third, not. Going left and right with the pelvis, try to be still here without movement. Inhale, and on the right side, exhale. I will go with your right side. Try to keep your elbows back. Exhale. Inhale. Second round. Back. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. And third round. Exhale. Inhale. And exhale. Inhale. And relax. Breathe normally, feel this thoracic area, and we will do Pavana Muktāsana. We know that we have three variations: from Ānanda Āsana, from Daṇḍa Āsana, and also from standing. When you are in this position, try to go with your leg up and not just press, because it’s not possible to press because the hip joints are not able to go back, but go up, up... Remain in this position and inhale. Now we will go together. It is excellent for balance, for concentration, for strengthening muscles in your body, and plus it is excellent for the groin, and you will feel the psoas muscles. Together we will go first with the right leg. Here is inhale. And exhale, go up, inhale, two, up, inhale, three, inhale, four, inhale, five. Inhale, and six. Inhale, and breathe normally. Feel circulation in your legs. And when we are standing, try not to lock your knees. Try to straighten your legs, but not on the other side. Feel, be aware of your body, be aware of your breathing, and still it is summer, and we will swim a little, but short, it is excellent for strengthening the muscles, it is good for your shoulders, and also for breathing, because it’s very important after a whole day in some of these movements, positions, to again get a good position. Because the position of the body is very important. First, because your inner thoughts and feelings are reflected in your body. And when you are with little confidence, self-confidence, and without strength and all this, you are in the position, “poor me,” you know, adolescent, and what to do? Because we are not like this. We are not. Our whole people, we are not like this. Because we are practicing yoga in our life, we are not very good. We are not like this, because we have inner strength. And swimming is excellent for that inner strength. Inhale. Inhale, inhale, and exhale. Like swimming. Two, exhale. Three, exhale. And once more, five, and exhale. And now we will swim in the backward, inhale, and exhale. Two, exhale. Three, four, five, and exhale. And once more, five, and exhale. And now we will swim in the backward, inhale, and exhale. And once more, five, and exhale. And now we will swim in the backward, inhale and exhale, and once more, five, and exhale. And now we will swim in the backward, inhale and exhale, and once more, five, and exhale. And now we will swim in the backward, inhale and exhale, and exhale. And now we will swim in the backward, and five. And relax. You may feel all these muscles. Now we will do another variation, but try not to make it this way. Try that you are straight, and when you do this movement, try nicely, without so much airplane, like a helicopter. It’s excellent also for the place between the shoulder blades. And now, backward. And relax. Be aware of the shoulders. Be aware of these muscles here. About your breathing. Be aware. You may feel that your heartbeat is a little quicker. And today we will look at Bhakti, yes, dancing. And for dance, we need strong muscles. Little, separate your legs. And we will go, put your palms on the hips, and slowly we will go on one side, but straighten your body, a little more separately, in, down. Very good, very good. All are very connected. I am also in the same way. And once more, that is the beauty of yoga in daily life. You are just watching, and you have the benefit. And he, the ashram, he didn’t ask for anything, and he was doing very well. And relax now. He’s coming to eat, and then go, and then that thing. Now, one more āsana. And it’s excellent, but if you have a problem with your knees, do not practice this. But try Maṇḍūkya āsana. Just go. Leave a little relax. If you have a problem, if you have any problem, just sit. And you may do butterfly. So I tell you one. Hello, Mister. We are not sitting in the toilet. We are not going to the toilet. It is not like when you sit in the toilet, but he does it a little differently, and that is very good. And when you go to the toilet, it is also the best in this position. But now we will not talk about it. But I want to tell you, if you understand me, then it is okay as never before. Will you talk to him a little bit? Yeah, please. Yeah. So now you see he’s sitting very nicely. But he still hasn’t come out. Thank God. I also can, but then you have to bring me up. Well, I want to tell you something. If someone does not want anything, if they do not want to have anything, then they should give something. Yes? Yes. Yeah. And if you know that, then you know that they go to the toilet like this. Yes, everything is there. When it falls over, then it goes down. So he did not tell me anything. Once I told him. And tomorrow we are going. So, in the afternoon, I was sleeping. In the afternoon, I took a rest, and then I came to him and thought about how I could put it on. Then they gave me something to wear, a scarf, a seat, and a little butterfly. Stay, stay. Okay. Please don’t think something not good, okay? So, when we are all, they are giving us, you know, so I am sitting here and I want to have water. Otherwise, I have to drink water, no? So this is very great. It is so full, and how I will tell you quickly. Look, you can see how clean it is. Yeah. So I just take it like this. Where is that? It was clean inside. Then it’s right. So, I want to say something, if you allow, so that we can give him chocolate, or something like that, or some track, or some treat, but what should we do? We do so many. So I want, if you all want, and I would, with life, tell you like this. Yes, it is real, a reality. That somebody is going in a good way, and then they say, “Oh yes, yeah.” So we do like this, then. And so we will do this during the exercise. So back to Maṇḍūkya Āsana. And now, as if you are asking someone, we still don’t have it, we still don’t have the mood. So now, as if you are asking for something. And it’s not just a joke. Okay, they are going tomorrow. He was here the whole day, he was here only eating and nothing. I give you my heart, and your heart also. So whatever you have or not, Please, please, please help us and give it. Okay, you see, my stomach is very big, also like this, yeah? But it has gone like this, you know that? Because, you know, down to me, I do everything like this. Many things are going like this, so then you sit nice. A tak seďte, pěkně se posaďte. Very nice. Velice dobře.
