Mantra is a divine, potent energy requiring strict discipline and selfless intent. Mantra is the resonant source of life and liberation. Specific mantras exist for purposes like curing snake bites or relocating bees, but this wisdom is transmitted orally and requires pure, selfless service without any material exchange. If used for gain, the power vanishes. Spiritual powers, like walking on water, function only with humility and vanish with ego. Mantra practice begins with total discipline—physical, mental, and spiritual. You request a mantra; you never order it. Selfish or jealous intent ensures failure. Your destiny is pre-written by Vidhātā based on your karma, and no one, not even divine incarnations, is exempt from this record. Life is a river flowing between positive and negative banks toward the ocean of origin. Use mantra carefully, as you would a knife or fire, for it can heal or harm. Liberation comes through purification, positive thought, universal love, and forgiveness. "Therefore, mantras should be spoken in detail, in a beautiful way." "If you do not follow the principles, if you do not follow the Guruvākya (the Guru's word), then that wisdom will just disappear from you, as if you never had it."

Mantra, Śvara Yoga, and the nature of discipleship are interconnected practices. Each planet possesses a mantra for specific sādhanā during its influencing periods. Master one thing to master all; a single mantra, deity, and guru are the path. Mantra practice involves writing, singing, and silent repetition. Śvara Yoga sādhanā controls the breath flow through the nostrils, aligning with the iḍā and piṅgalā nāḍīs connected to the solar plexus. This practice removes fear and prepares consciousness. It requires knowing not only how but when to change the breath, just as a driver knows when to change gears. Incorrect practice can negatively affect the body. The process moves from the form of the letter, to the sound, to the inner resonance where the sound is recognized as the self. The story of the Brahmari wasp illustrates transformation through sound. The wasp finds a worm and, through repeated injections and the constant sound it makes, transforms that worm into another wasp. The worm, concentrating on the sound, eventually makes the sound itself and emerges transformed. Disciples are of three types. The inferior disciple avoids work and service with clever excuses. The middling disciple does the work but seeks to delegate it. The superior disciple intuitively acts on the master's wish without being asked. Sādhanā, Śvara Yoga, and Nāda Yoga lead to perfection. All waters merging into the Bhāgīrathī become pure Gaṅgā. "Ek sāje sab sāje, sab... jāye. When you do one thing, you master everything." "Śvara Yoga sādhanā removes the fear of death. It removes the fear of rebirth." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 465

Mantra is the core of spiritual practice. Life itself is a mantra. Initiation provides the mantra's principles and marks a step toward enlightenment. You must become one with your mantra, feeling it resonate through your being, replacing anxiety with certainty and awakening spiritual light. The aim is liberation, not material dependence. Mantra is your king; approach it with humility and devotion, merging your consciousness into the cosmic. Practice is essential. The first technique is likhita, writing the mantra. Writing purifies thoughts, builds concentration, and is a remedy for stress. It helps correct pronunciation. The alphabet itself is Brahman; the Sanskrit letters are eternal. Write your mantra as you hear it pronounced, with devotion, even for a short time. The second technique is vākya or vikrī, the chanting of mantra. This is śabda-brahma, where sound itself is the Supreme. Your speech should be divine, purifying karma and creating positive vibrations. The sound originates deep within and becomes articulated speech. Control your tongue; let your words be sweet. "Your consciousness merges into that cosmic consciousness." "On the tongue should be the honey." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 463

Bhajan is the second mantra, a powerful practice using the words of saints. There are two kinds: nirguṇa bhajans for the formless God and saguṇa bhajans for God with form. Self-realized saints compose nirguṇa bhajans. To attain this knowledge, one needs a living master from a spiritual lineage, the Siddha Pīṭha. Joining this lineage is like water merging into the Ganges; you receive the blessings of all past masters and become part of that chain. The formless God, Nirguṇa Brahman, is supreme bliss beyond all qualities. When that knowledge awakens, all desires vanish. We are here due to our karma. Saguṇa bhakti is worship of a divine incarnation or realized saint in a physical form. It is an easier path. The personal mantra from an authentic master is your torchlight. You must nourish it with devotion. Without persistent effort, like the fox trying to open a coconut, you cannot enjoy the fruit of the practice. "Gurur Brahmā, Gurur Viṣṇu, Guru Devo Maheśvaraḥ. Guru Sākṣāt Para Brahma, Tasmai Śrī Gurave Namaḥ." "Rām nām nāriyal bīm. Man siyāl guḍāyon le jāī. Phodiyaan toh phute nahi, giri kaan se khai." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 461

Desire is natural; claiming to have none suggests a problem. Success in mantra requires foundational principles. First is bhakti (devotion), meaning trust and oneness, like the automatic love between mother and child. Where there is love, there is no cruelty, violence, or cheating; there is perfect trust. In this age, bhakti is primary, followed by jñāna (knowledge), vairāgya (dispassion to say "no"), and tyāga (sacrifice). These four pillars support your practice. A master gave a seed to two men, instructing them to care for it. The merchant locked it away. The farmer planted it, multiplying the harvest over years. When the master returned, the merchant's seed was gone, eaten by a moth. The farmer showed tons of produce. The master said the farmer passed, for a mantra is a seed to be multiplied through repetition. In another account, every hair of a devoted being resonated with the divine name. Through mantra, you transform. "Where there is love, there is no cruelty. Where there is love, there is no violence." "You have to repeat, multiplying every day. As many times as you will repeat, that is it, your plus point." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 460

Spiritual awakening is the foundation for achieving world peace. Human history is filled with devastating wars driven by greed for money, position, and power. This greed destroys both human life and the environment. Peace can only come through tolerance, respect, and understanding for all religions, cultures, and individuals. The solution begins within each person's heart; you must be the change you wish to see. Spirituality is defined not by religion but by purity: pure thoughts, pure language, and pure love. It involves renouncing greed, understanding that material possessions are temporary, and recognizing our shared humanity. Practicing yoga cultivates this purity, offering a system for physical, mental, social, and spiritual health. It calms the mind, recharges the body with energy, and fosters non-violence. Through self-mastery and inner peace, we can collectively create a healthy, harmonious world. "Be the change you want to see. Change yourself." "Spirituality means purity: pure thoughts, pure language, pure love, full of tolerance, respect, and understanding." Filming location: Czech Republic DVD 459

Understanding and longing are the path to overcoming fear and realizing the divine. Life's impressions remain forever; we cannot forget, but we can understand and accept. Analyze problems by finding their root cause in past situations of time and place. See that the present moment is safe; the past fear was based on a different reality, like mistaking a rope for a snake. Selfishness and ego prevent solving life's problems; you solve only through giving and respecting others. Understanding dispels fear, as shown when a mysterious light was found to have a technical cause, not a ghost. You must do this inner work yourself; no one can do it for you. Longing for God requires surrendering ego and possessing unwavering, conscious desire, as illustrated by a devotee allowing a crow to eat him but pleading for his eyes to remain to see God. God is indefinable; "God is God." Divine connection is not found in fleeting human love but in permanent devotion. You may miss God's presence if not alert, as in the story of the saint who failed to recognize God while busy. Your human life has a spiritual mission; this body is a temple. Cultivate the unshakable trust that God is with you always. "Be the change you want to see." "God is God." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 457

True friendship is a divine path where two truthful selves walk together, removing each other's sorrows. A friend is never selfish and stands by you through all lives. We all seek someone to pour our love upon, and when that love is accepted, we feel released and happy. If refused, it brings confusion and pain. Real love is understanding and patient endurance. Many relationships fail because promises are broken when tested. The story of the camel and the fox teaches that a selfish friend causes suffering until they learn. The camel, after being betrayed, makes the fox feel the consequence of its actions in the river, teaching a lesson. True friendship withstands critical times. Do not seek love only in others; be a light within. Meditate to be one with yourself. God is the friend who never refuses your love. Be like a flower; butterflies will come. Your prayers and wisdom lead to realization. "Friend is never selfish. Your friend is always thinking of you." "When two hearts meet, then a smile comes. Normally, we should have thirty-two teeth. When two meet, the thirty-two open." Filming location: To be det DVD 456

Our well-being is our eternal search for God, who is happiness itself. Well-being is the ancient goal. God is simply God, manifest in all creation. Every being seeks happiness, which is God. Even a devil, by constant thought of God, can be liberated, as shown in the story of Kṛṣṇa and Kaṁsa. Yet, we often fear God's actual arrival, clinging to worldly attachments. True experience is not of the body but of the inner consciousness. Disturbances (vikṣepa) and afflictions (kleśa) arise from negative thoughts and actions, fueled by the three types of suffering. Purification comes through mantra. Wellness is establishing a permanent relationship with God, like a wave returning to the ocean. We are drawn to our origin. You can only achieve well-being within; you can inspire others but cannot give them realization. Purify your thoughts and qualities to find it. "God is happiness. God is wellness. God is ānanda." "Man ke māte hār hai, aur man ke māte jīt. It is your mind that suffers when you lose, and your mind that celebrates when you win." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 455

Look into your inner mirror to see your true Self. The physical reflection changes, but the inner one reveals your eternal reality. Only you and God can see this inner reflection, where nothing can be hidden. Your entire being depends on this inner reality. Work with the principles within your heart: Satya (truth), Dharma (righteous duty), and Jñāna (knowledge). Using these tools makes life more comfortable and advances spiritual development. Spiritual technology must be experienced, not merely learned. True greatness is marked by humility; never declare yourself great. A valuable life is dedicated to selfless service and inner purification through these principles. "Your reality is not in the mirror in your bathroom or dressing room. That is not reality, because it is changing." "Therefore, never speak that you are a great one. Do not even think that you are a great one. Always think that you are a servant of God."

Consciousness is the fundamental space of our being, within which thoughts arise as waves. Yoga is the gradual process of harmonizing these thought-waves. Our existence comprises layers: the physical body, the mind, and the subtler sheaths of consciousness. The mind is a subtle process we can direct, yet its nature remains unseen. Our entire being is like a single house; consciousness is the entire structure, while our active intellect is the room currently occupied and illuminated. We can expand consciousness limitlessly through thought, but this expansion is often mere imagination, not aware presence. Such unbounded thinking creates tension. Thoughts directly influence our entire system—mind, emotions, and physical health. Negative thoughts generate unhealthy vibrations, while positive thoughts create a healthy inner environment. The practice is to observe thoughts without attachment, allowing them to come and go while resting in relaxed awareness. "Yogaḥ citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ. Yoga is that which purifies, neutralizes, and harmonizes the waves of thought in your consciousness." "If thoughts come, let them come. If thoughts go, let them go. Just be observant. That is all."

Ekāntavāsa is a solitary, peaceful residence for spiritual recovery. Humans uniquely generate noise, pollution, and waste, disturbing nature. Historically, yogis retreated to forests, sustained by natural herbs and roots. Today, such nourishment is scarce, polluted by human activity and genetic manipulation of seeds. Collective vows are needed to cease fighting, reduce waste, and follow spiritual principles like offering the other cheek. This retreat in nature provides clean air and freedom from artificial noise. The environment is filled with divine vibrations from collective mantra practice, which benefits all. Personal spiritual practice, not physical postures, is primary here. Analyze your thoughts, discard negativity, and come to satsang with positivity. "Beauty is in the ātmā, in the soul. Beauty is in the person who always has kind words and a smile." "Analyze yourself. Feel this atmosphere and be happy that hundreds of your guru brothers and sisters are here." Filming location: Czech Republic DVD 452

All creatures are one light of God, equally loved. Humans possess intellect, needing education to cultivate human qualities. This education begins with parents, fostering ethics, positive thinking, and harmony. A human is defined by inner qualities, not just the body. The primary quality is to be a protector, practicing non-violence. Another is to understand and forgive from the heart, releasing mental burdens. Jealousy and anger are not human qualities. The ultimate mission is self-realization (ātma-jñāna), leading to eternal unity with the divine light. This requires following one's dharma, practicing prayer and meditation, and seeking guidance. We are here on the karma-bhūmi to perform actions; protect your dharma, and it will protect you. Do not seek knowledge of past lives or the future; trust in God. "God loves His creation very equally, without discrimination." "Your bad quality is your enemy, and your good quality is your friend." Filming location: London, UK DVD 450

Our true purpose is a search for divine shelter, not worldly aims. Blessed are those who find a Satguru, but meeting him is not enough; we must constantly receive his merciful gaze and guidance. We only recognize this need when spiritually thirsty. True devotion requires lifelong, unbroken surrender to the Guru's presence and memory, avoiding the pride of becoming a "self-made" master. Even advanced realization demands continuous, dedicated practice and protection from negative influences. The ultimate goal is unwavering devotion, where every breath and vision is of the Guru. "To meet a Satguru Dev is one of the greatest pieces of luck or happiness, but to meet the master is not everything. To receive something from him is what is important." "Even if you are an enlightened soul... Until the last breath of your life, you have to be that one who is completely surrendered, dedicated." Filming location: London, UK DVD 449

To build a blessed home, follow Vāstu principles and cultivate satsaṅg. First, select land. The plot should be narrower at the front than the back, a shape called gau mukha for prosperity. The entrance is best placed in the north, east, or west; avoid the south as it drains energy. Before breaking ground, perform a ceremony during an auspicious astrological time, asking Mother Earth's permission. Disregarding this can lead to family discord and unhappiness. The ceremony involves placing purified stones for the five elements and nine planets, starting in the northeast corner. Also place a ghee lamp for light and wealth, and a Nāg-Nāginī symbol for protection from earthquakes. Place Gaṇeśa and a spreading grass root to symbolize lasting life. Modern life in flats may have Vāstu flaws; adjust with furniture and prayer. Most vital is satsaṅg—association with truth. It removes all negative energies. Attend gatherings fully, or practice alone through positive thinking and mantra. Do not waste this human life on mere worldly aims; focus on spiritual development. "What a glory, what a beauty of the satsaṅg." "Every thought which goes out of your brain sooner or later will come back to you." Filming location: London, UK DVD 448

The human being possesses hidden powers to be realized. Yoga is the ancient science leading to the cosmic Self. The individual soul is a bundle of karma, and its reactions form destiny, decided by past lives. Your present circumstances, body, and parents were not your choice. You are alone, fluttering on time's waves, with inner realities known only to you. God created 8.4 million creatures, all representing divine light. The human, possessing intellect, can become divine. Your mission is self-realization: to know "Who am I?" and merge with the universal, ending the cycle of karma. Humans are protectors, endowed with qualities like kindness, mercy, and forgiveness. These are hidden treasures you develop, not buy. Your body has 72,000 nerves and energy centers, chakras, transmitting cosmic consciousness. You have five bodies: physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and the causal body of desires. The three main energy channels are connected to key chakras from the base to the crown. Purify these through practice and meditation to awaken and master your energy, attaining superconsciousness and liberation. "Only one mission human has, and that is: 'Who am I? Know thyself.'" "If you can't dry the tears of others, don't be the cause of the tears." Filming location: London, UK DVD 447

Yoga is union and balance for body, mind, and soul. Its goal is self-realization, achieved through five paths. Karma Yoga is selfless action, creating destiny. Bhakti Yoga is devotion through prayer. Rāja Yoga is self-discipline via ethical principles and the eight limbs, including physical postures. Jñāna Yoga is the knowledge of the unchanging Supreme Reality. Haṭha Yoga requires willpower and consists of six purification techniques. Commonly called Haṭha Yoga, physical exercise is actually part of Rāja Yoga. The first technique, netī, cleanses the nasal passages. Dhautī cleans the food pipe, using water or a cloth. Basti or Śaṅkha Prakṣālana cleanses the intestines with salt water and specific exercises, requiring dietary discipline afterward. Naulī churns the stomach muscles to strengthen digestion. Trāṭak is gazing concentration to improve focus and eyesight. Kapālabhāti purifies the sinuses through forceful exhalation. These practices purify the body and mind for health. "Yoga is designed to achieve the ultimate goal of human life." "Haṭha Yoga is for the purification of the body, mind, and intellect." Filming location: Birmingham, UK DVD 446

The inner mirror of consciousness reflects all reality, which we must purify to see our true nature. Our ten senses—five for knowledge and five for action—are like horses pulling the coach of life; they can lead us to ruin or to our destination. These senses feed impressions into the conscious mind, which transfers them to the subconscious, where they are stored as memories and can arise as desires, or vāsanās. The mind is merely a clerk, carrying messages between the senses, consciousness, and intellect, which must judge what to do. Unfulfilled desires create psychic disturbances and depression. To gain control, we must purify the energy channels, Iḍā and Piṅgalā, through practices like prāṇāyāma, awakening the dormant Kuṇḍalinī Śakti. Purity is obstructed by three things: māla (impurity), vikṣepa (disturbances), and āvaraṇa (the curtain of ignorance). Removing ignorance requires guidance from a living guru and the protective frame of mantra and satsaṅg. Consistent practice leads to mastery over desires and the realization of divine consciousness within. "Who can see cannot speak, and who speaks cannot see." "Your inner mirror will show you all the reality again." Filming location: Edinburgh, UK DVD 445

Yoga is the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness. Two forms of knowledge exist: worldly knowledge and the supreme knowledge of the universal One. This supreme knowledge is realized not through theory but through practice and meditation under guidance. The limitless universe, an expression of cosmic consciousness, cannot be understood by the limited intellect; one must merge with it. The balancing power between space and consciousness is Yoga, creating harmony and unity. The ultimate aim is to end the cycle of reincarnation by becoming one with the cosmic Self. All beings possess an innate tendency to return to their origin of happiness. Human intellect, the most powerful tool, must be educated and turned toward the divine through practice, prayer, and non-violence. "Yoga is that harmonizing, and where there is a harmony, there is a unity. So literally, yoga means union, union of the individual consciousness with the cosmic consciousness." "The soul is not the Self. Soul is only a bundle of karmas... Ātmā is the universal, and soul is individual." Filming location: Edinburgh, UK DVD 444

Teaching awakens your own inner wisdom. You train to become an instructor, learning organized teachings. You begin to teach, repeating the same words. When you speak, a word surfaces in your awareness. Your own intellect decorates that word with wisdom. You feel it is correct and wish to give it. Like a flower seller who decorates flowers before giving them, you color the teaching with your own insight. If you have devotion and clarity within, that clarity emerges. While speaking one sentence, a radiance in your consciousness gives many meanings to that word. You discover dormant wisdom within yourself. You are surprised by your own presentation. Therefore, when you begin to teach, you are first teaching yourself. You learn from yourself and uncover hidden treasure. Your own wisdom is the milk you draw from and drink. Teaching is to revise, reuse, and distribute your inner wisdom. You give to others and lose nothing; you gain more as wisdom awakens from within. "Therefore, when you begin to instruct or teach, first and foremost, you are not teaching others; you are teaching yourself." "Feed it with love. Love means devotion, bhakti. And bhakti means complete oneness, complete surrender, complete belief. That means now your intellect can milk as much as you want, and cream will come." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 440

Yoga is the universal principle balancing body, mind, consciousness, and soul, far beyond mere physical exercise. It is the ancient spiritual science from India, a cradle of culture, given by sages millions of years ago. Humanity is one among 8.4 million creatures, not superior. Human greed and intellect, when misused, destroy the planet, manifesting as natural disasters and violence. This era, Kali Yuga, is governed by negative force, which uses corrupted intellect and illness. The positive divine force is cultivated by removing conflict from the mind. True yoga is a way of life: acting with love, kindness, and global consciousness without hurting others. It is not extreme physical postures but daily harmony. One is an incarnation of love and light; happiness comes from within, not from external things. "Yoga is that principle which balances the universe and universal consciousness—balancing, harmonizing, and uniting." "Yoga is our way of life... whatever you are doing, do it with love, with the consciousness that your action does not hurt others." Filming location: Banska Bystrica, Slovakia DVD 438

We begin with a peace mantra from the ancient Vedas, a prayer for peace in all elements and within ourselves. The practice of yoga is the path to holistic health. Health is everything's foundation, yet the body's nature is to change, like a leaf falling from a tree. Yoga is unparalleled for wellness, requiring daily practice over mere theory. Our being consists of multiple bodies—physical, mental, and subtle—through which cosmic energy flows via channels called nāḍīs. Our destiny, shaped by past actions or karma, operates through levels of consciousness. Illness first affects the subtle body, then the mental, then the physical, making prevention through yoga essential. Yoga is psychosomatic, influencing body, mind, and spirit. Spirituality is universal purity, not confined to religion. Breath connects us to cosmic energy; conscious breathing can sustain life. Cultivate mental health with positive impressions and social health by avoiding harm. World peace starts with individual health and dialogue across differences. Each step and thought contributes to a better world. Peace begins in one's own heart. "Tons of theory are nothing compared to a gram of practice." "We should know that we can save our life and prolong our life through breath exercises." Filming location: Slovakia DVD 435

Yoga is the balancing principle that creates harmony and union between universal space and the cosmic consciousness. Individual consciousness seeks to unite with this cosmic source. Human experience oscillates between unconscious, subconscious, and conscious states. Meditation is the practice to purify and transcend these levels, moving toward higher consciousness. This process purifies the accumulated impressions of karma, which is the destiny created by one's actions. These karmic qualities persist beyond the physical body, like salt dissolving in water yet retaining its essence. The journey is guided by these inherent tendencies. The human intellect, educated through the five senses, must master the mind and senses. Unfulfilled desires stored in the subconscious create recurring patterns. Meditation, supported by a mantra and disciplined daily practice, is the method to purify these deep impressions and resolve these latent conflicts. "Where there is balance, there is harmony, and therefore yoga means harmony. And where there is harmony, there is unity; therefore, literally, yoga means union." "Meditation without mantra is a body without soul." Filming location: Breda, NL DVD 433

Practical advice is given for health and well-being. Take one teaspoon of yellow mustard seeds fifteen to twenty minutes before eating. Practice Agnisāra Kriyā and drink anise tea for digestion. For eyesight, consult a doctor first. Soak eleven almonds overnight in a ceramic container with water; peel and eat them the next morning. Practice Trāṭaka and bending exercises if approved, and consume carrot juice. For weight, adopt the Phalahārī diet: avoid all grains, milk products, potatoes, and bananas. Eat unlimited vegetables, salads with oil, and up to twenty grams of nuts daily. Exercise is essential. A cleansing mixture can be made from equal parts neem powder, turmeric, ginger pulp, and Triphalā Cūrṇa; take one teaspoon each morning. Apply a neem paste to the body weekly. Neem has many uses and benefits. Rose petals from Jādan can be consumed. Certain stones in water may preserve flowers and leaves; this water may be beneficial. For eyes, apply a small amount of fresh, unheated honey to the eyelids at night. "Eat as much as you can, but you can't eat anymore? Then eat more." "Neem is a blessing that you can have."

Kriyā is all action, and its purpose is purification and union. Every physical and mental movement is Kriyā, from bodily functions to thinking. Action yields reaction, governing life. In yoga, specific Haṭha Yoga Kriyās, the Ṣaṭ Karma, purify the nāḍīs: Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumnā. These correspond to the sacred rivers Gaṅgā, Yamunā, and Sarasvatī. Their purification through practice leads the yogī to the saṅgham at the Ājñā Cakra, the union called Yoga. This inner confluence is best accessed during Brahmamuhūrta, the pre-dawn period ideal for meditation and mantra. True practice requires purifying the fourfold inner instrument: Manas (mind), Buddhi (intellect), Citta (consciousness), and Ahaṁkāra (ego). The ultimate aim is realizing the immortal ātmā, beyond all duality, by removing impurities, disturbances, and the curtain of ignorance. "Anything that happens through your being is Kriyā." "When Iḍā and Piṅgalā are purified through the practice of Haṭha Yoga... then your nāḍīs are completely purified." Filming location: Breda, NL DVD 431

Satsaṅg is the essential boat to cross the ocean of ignorance and the door to liberation. It is the gathering with truth, wisdom, and good company that inspires the spiritual path. This association can be with a master, a teacher, or even your own positive thinking. Wherever God is remembered—in temples, mosques, or churches—it is a place of satsaṅg. Regular prayer, like the Islamic practice five times daily, constantly reminds one of the divine. Mantra is a powerful seed of prayer; its repetition sustains satsaṅg within. Hanumān, searching for Sītā, found only one person in Laṅkā chanting God's name at dawn, which was like a full moon among stars. True spiritual teachers appear through divine grace, teaching with gentleness and without criticism. One must renounce ego and selfishness, being flexible like a tree branch. What you renounce in devotion may return to you by divine will. Generosity multiplies spiritual merit, while greed leads to loss. The power of mantra and prayer lies in constant remembrance and thankfulness. "Where there is a master, there is a satsaṅg, and where there is a satsaṅg, there is a master."

The neem tree is a divine source of healing. It grows large in India, and every part of it is medicinal. We call it Neem Nārāyaṇa, meaning it possesses as many qualities as God. You can find neem in many products today. Sitting under the tree is healing. We harvest organic leaves and bark. For skin issues like pimples, apply a neem powder mask for three days. For difficult wounds, apply the paste; it heals quickly. For allergies, take a neem bath. Applying the paste to your hair weekly revitalizes it. Everyone should drink neem tea each morning. It cures allergies, boosts immunity, prevents diabetes, and aids digestion. It eliminates bad breath and improves eyesight, hair, and nails. It is a top prevention for cancer, purifies blood, supports kidneys, and removes gallstones. For gardens, a neem and tobacco water spray protects plants. It purifies bathrooms and repels kitchen ants. Keep neem powder at home. We prune trees for fresh leaves, which supports our ashram. Those who cannot perform certain cleanses should drink the tea frequently. Our product is original and organic. "It is one of the best preventions against cancer." "For people with stomach, digestion, or gastric issues, neem is also a divine blessing." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 425

Yoga is the science of the universe, the uniting principle between endless space and cosmic consciousness. It is the union of individual consciousness with the divine. The universe began with a resonance, Oṁ, from which all creation emerged. Our planet is a place of death and rebirth, a channel where the multiplying divine waves return to oneness. Life here follows the law of karma: every action creates a reaction, shaping our destiny. To avoid negative karma, especially from harming life, a vegetarian life is advised. The human intellect is a powerful tool for understanding and liberation. Yoga practices—postures imitating nature, breath control, and meditation—harmonize the body and mind, prolong life, and calm emotions. The ultimate aim is Self-realization, to realize the cosmic consciousness within. For world peace, we need tolerance, respect, and understanding between all cultures and religions. Life is a journey; only our destiny accompanies us. Therefore, live with love, forgiveness, and awareness, for even simple acts of kindness are yoga. "Two have to become one, and that is called yoga." "Life will eat life." Filming location: Portorož, SLO DVD 424

Yoga is a practical system for health and a universal principle of unity. Education should cultivate human qualities and clear consciousness, but there are two kinds: worldly knowledge for a profession and supreme spiritual knowledge. True education teaches that all should be happy. My work here began with great dedication from others to spread yoga's message. The practice balances the body's systems and calms the mind, awakening inner peace. The happiness we seek is within. A major global problem is conflict between religions and cultures. God created only one creation, so the one true religion is humanity. We must see ourselves in every creature. Yoga purifies negative thoughts, leading us to the Self. Our aim is for individual consciousness to merge into Cosmic Consciousness. This is the path of yoga, which unites and harmonizes. For this anniversary, we chose to donate blood, a precious gift for life. I urge you to practice for health and to build healthy, happy families, which is also part of yoga in daily life.

Spiritual awakening is the path to world peace. The power of mantra is to wish happiness for all creatures. Where argument ends, spirituality begins. Duality is ignorance; spirituality is universal consciousness. Yoga is the balancing principle that unites individual consciousness with the cosmic. It is not a religion but the universal principle from which all religions arise. The conflict between mind and intellect ceases in non-duality, the realization of oneness. The self is universal; the individual soul carries personal karma. Peace cannot be achieved through weapons or war but only through awakened love and compassion. Spirituality is purity of heart and the understanding that what disturbs oneself disturbs others. It is realized through meditation and practice, harmonizing body, mind, and soul. Ancient wisdom is urgently needed to develop this consciousness for modern times. Good will, thought, and action are spirituality. A few minutes of meditation brings clarity and energy to overcome conflict. "Where there is duality, there is no spirituality. Spirituality is universal, which has to be awakened in the human consciousness." "Yoga means the union of the individual consciousness with the cosmic consciousness."

The divine play of destiny guides our lives beyond our understanding. We are brought together by a power whose beginning and end are beyond imagination. It is written where each person will eat and drink; you must go to that place, and when it is finished, you cannot go even if you wish. This was shown through a journey where flights were repeatedly canceled, directing us to specific meals in various locations. Every stop was for that destined food. Similarly, two close friends were kept apart because the specific grain and water that would unite them had not yet arrived. A story illustrates this: a sage saw that a single grain of rice in a woman's pot belonged to the king. Through a series of events, her husband accidentally carried that grain in a tooth to the king's court, where the king ultimately ate it. Thus, each grain bears the name of its consumer. Destiny, or divine play, orchestrates all things, making a king a beggar and a beggar a king. Therefore, in any condition, repeat God's name and pray. Utilize time for good, live consciously in the present, and purify yourself through spiritual practice. "On each corn, in every rice and every wheat, is written the name of the person who will eat this." "Anything happens to us, there is some sense in it. Don't be unhappy; welcome it."

Yoga is a spiritual path far beyond commercialized physical exercise. Many approach yoga seeking quick physical results without understanding their body's limits, which can cause harm. True yoga requires years of systematic study, not a brief certification. The commercialization by self-styled teachers damages yoga's essence. The physical practice is important but must be done correctly within a broader spiritual framework. The ultimate goal is spiritual realization, mastering levels of consciousness from unconscious to superconscious. A key practice is achieving lucid awareness and control within the dream state, which trains consciousness. A real yoga teacher must practice self-inquiry: "Who am I?" progressing through stages of contemplation, glimpse, and knowledge of the eternal Self. Teachers should also study anatomy and Ayurveda. True yoga is divine knowledge leading to unity. "To become a yoga teacher, you need six to eight years." "Yoga is nothing but knowledge, and knowledge is the oneness, the unity."

Spirituality for world peace is developed through action, not just contemplation. Modern life is busy, and many find meditation difficult. Yet, the innate human tendency for peace remains. Spirituality is maintained through practice, where self-interest (Svārth) and selfless good deeds (Paramārth) must go parallel. Self-care provides the energy for compassion. True spirituality is seen in action, like helpers at an accident focused solely on aiding others, not on payment. Helping hands have more value than folded hands. Another profound path is becoming a teacher, sharing wisdom like a nourishing cow that feeds many. This requires devotion, not ego. Teaching yoga and Āyurveda in daily life helps others achieve health, balance, and clarity. Such actions create radiating waves of peace without need for advertisement. Spirituality in action, or karma yoga, is the practical means for our time. "Helping hands have more value than folded hands." "Your wisdom is that milky cow which will feed many, many hungry ones."

Sādhanā requires unwavering devotion. Success demands complete dedication to one's chosen path. The mind, like the moon, constantly changes its plans and feelings. One must repeatedly return the mind to the aim. Inner vision must be directed to the guru's lotus feet. The heart lotus must be opened with the ointment of divine name. One must remain above worldly attachments, like a lotus in water. Every action generates a reaction through body, mind, and speech. For liberation, practice four sādhanās. First is viveka: discern the eternal reality from the changing illusion. Realize "Brahma is real, the world is unreal." Second is vairāgya: cultivate intense, constant dispassion toward the transient world. Third is ṣaṭ-sampatti: attain the six inner treasures like control of the senses and endurance. Fourth is mumukṣutva: have a burning longing for liberation. All yoga paths are interconnected; one cannot practice only one. Karma yoga purifies through selfless action. Work is worship. The guru's grace burns away karma. "Ākhiyāṁ Satguru charaṇome lagī, merī kishmat jagī." "Brahma Satya, Jagat Mithyā." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India DVD 416

Pūrṇimā signifies completeness, reflecting the universe within the human body. The entire cosmos, including fourteen worlds and 2,100 universes, is projected in this physical form. This body is a temple and a coach pulled by the ten indriyas, which must be controlled by intellect and viveka. You are part of the universe and are a universe yourself. The mantra "Om Pūrṇamada Pūrṇamidam" teaches that completeness remains complete. To perceive this cosmic reflection, you must meditate, practice Kriyā, and engage in sādhanā with devotion. Without consistent practice, you lose jñāna, dhyāna, and bhakti. The full moon's energy influences all life, causing emotional and biological changes. Fasting and satsaṅg on this day help purify the body and direct energy spiritually. Only your sādhanā and prayers accompany you beyond life; all else is left behind. The aim is Ātma-jñāna. "Yathā Brahmāṇḍe Tathā Piṇḍe. Brahmāṇḍa is the universe. Piṇḍa means this physical body." "Three things will not come back: time, the bullet from the weapon, and the soul from the body."

The nature of prāṇa and the kośas is subtle and profound. Prāṇa is not oxygen and has no direct English translation. It is the vital force that defines a living entity, a prāṇī. When prāṇa leaves, one dies. The jīva is the life principle, closely connected to prāṇa but not identical to a soul. As long as prāṇa is in the body, you are alive. It leaves last from the heart. Its departure is painful, like a heart attack where blocked blood flow causes severe spasms. Prāṇa is the cement that binds the five kośas—Annamaya, Prāṇamaya, Manomaya, Vijñānamaya, and Ānandamaya—together. Your diet influences your prāṇa, and your prāṇa influences your mind. The mind is powerful; if you are its slave, you will suffer. In meditation, direct your breath and consciousness along the spine from the Mūlādhāra to Sahasrāra to control mental fluctuations. At death, only one question matters: what will become of me? The mind must be attracted to the Divine at that final moment. Purify your energy and mind to understand the Prāṇamaya Kośa. You need guidance to cross this ocean. "Prāṇa is very hard to understand and describe. What is the prāṇa? Oxygen is not Prāṇa." "As long as prāṇa is in the body, you are alive."

The Ātmā is covered by five kośas: the physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and causal bodies. The human physical body is made from the five elements, like all of 8.4 million life forms. Humans are not alone; we are meant to be protectors of all creatures and the planet. The root of dharma is dayā, mercy towards every living being. The root of sin is ego and pride. Without mercy, the heart hardens and the kośas become polluted. Modern problems like climate change stem from human greed, not other creatures. Parents must educate children in saṃskāras and culture. The greeting "praṇām" invokes a blessing, while "bye-bye" does not. A story illustrates that countless blessings from saying "praṇām" can overcome a destined short life. Blessings from parents, teachers, and sages provide protection and śakti. Life is temporary; only your karma accompanies you. Purify the five kośas to end suffering. "Dayā dharm kā mūl hai, pāp mūl abhimān." "Dharma rakṣata rakṣata. If you protect the dharma, dharma will protect you." Filming location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India DVD 412

Purification of the physical body, the Annamaya Kośa, is the foundation for all other layers of being. Haṭha Yoga and Āyurveda provide the discipline and methods for this purification. The quality of our food directly shapes our physical and mental states, governed by the guṇas. A proper diet includes whole grains, legumes, organic vegetables and fruits, and traditional foods like ghee and sweets in limited, digestible amounts. Overcooked vegetables lose vitamins, while fresh, sun-exposed fruits are vital. Soybeans provide more protein than meat. White flour and processed foods are harmful. Fasting and practices like Kāya Kalpa regenerate the body but require strict discipline. Freshly cooked meals consumed promptly prevent food from becoming tāmasic. Health is the primary wealth, and everything depends on a purified Annamaya Kośa. "Health is not everything. But everything is nothing without health." "Jaisā khāyegā ann, vaisā rahegā man; jaisā pīyegā pānī, vaisī bolegā bānī." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India DVD 411

Spiritual progress rests on two pillars: motivation and practice. Motivation comes from teachings, yet clarity often arrives suddenly after long exposure. However, understanding alone is insufficient; you must undertake the practical journey. Practice requires continuity, not sporadic effort. Remote learning provides motivation but lacks the reality of a Master's physical presence, which is essential for receiving certain techniques and individual guidance. Some advanced group practices should only be done collectively under the Master's energy, as solo attempts cause difficulties. Yet, a daily personal meditation is beneficial. True experience differs from recorded representations; being physically present is transformative. Spiritual growth demands surrendering negative qualities like ego and greed. Theoretical knowledge alone is temporary; real growth requires internal change, honest self-acceptance, and the discipline fostered in a live setting. "Yoga is not for the general. Yoga is individual." "The seed you put in the ground has to die." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 410

Prāṇāyāma is the divine science of life itself, connecting individual consciousness to the cosmic source. Life begins with an inhalation and ends with an exhalation; the breath between is the wave of our existence. This breath is not merely oxygen exchange but our link to the cosmic mother and father, the universal consciousness that nourishes all. Our individual consciousness is a child of that cosmic source, neutral and beyond bodily gender. The prāṇa, or life force, permeates all five elements and the entire universe. Yogis researched this through meditation, mapping the five bodies and the journey of the soul across lifetimes and worlds. True human development requires mindful living: proper nourishment (Āhāra), environment (Vihāra), conduct (Ācāra), and thought (Vicāra). Prāṇāyāma is the exercise of this prāṇa, following Āsana, to balance the system, ensure health, and achieve the human mission. Practice must be daily and disciplined, coordinated with breath and movement, feeling the expansion and contraction of the prāṇa body. Mastery requires years of consistent practice, purifying the mind and intellect, leading to oneness. "Life is the breath, and breath is the life." "Prāṇāyāma is life, not a source of life, but itself is life." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 409

Yoga is the eternal principle that harmonizes the cosmic consciousness with individual life. The universe, governed by the one Brahman, manifested from a supreme will expressed as the sound Oṁ. Within this creation, the human being is a unique form with intellect, meant for self-realization—the recognition of the immortal, universal ātmā within. Our daily life, however, is often spent identifying with the temporary body, mind, and individual soul, which experiences pleasure and pain. True human purpose is to awaken from this and reunite with the divine source. This requires conscious living: reminding oneself of one's human dignity, cultivating noble qualities, and following one's dharma while keeping the ultimate aim of liberation. Yoga practice supports this by promoting health, discipline, and inner contentment, aligning the individual with the universal. "Therefore, it is said, God Kṛṣṇa in the Bhagavad Gītā also said: 'Weapon cannot kill, fire cannot burn, water cannot wet, air cannot dry, and dust cannot take away.' That is your identity." "And it is Ādiguru Śaṅkarācārya who said: 'Who am I? From where did I come? What is the purpose of coming here? And where will I go? I am not this body... I am the immortal one.'"

Lord Śiva embodies the principles of spiritual discipline and liberation. All mantras and knowledge originate from Śiva. Within the Trinity, Brahmā creates the body, Viṣṇu sustains the being, and Śiva provides liberation by destroying negativity. Śiva is also the formless universal consciousness, first manifested as the sound Oṁ. Meditation on Oṁ requires devotion. Spiritual discipline is essential, exemplified by strict fasting. On a fasting day, one must not consume any grain; even tasting breaks the fast. This discipline purifies. All actions, including eating and karma yoga, contain an element of selfishness, but it can be healthy. Rituals and respect for holy objects are the spices that make spirituality tasteful. Practice āsanas and prāṇāyāma consciously, seeing your body as a holy temple. Breathe with awareness, for breath is life. Meditate to cleanse the heart and see the divine Self in all. This disciplined sādhanā leads to rapid spiritual development. "Śiva means consciousness, that cosmic consciousness." "Nothing in this creation and in this world is selfless."

The essence of yoga is controlling the mind to realize the true Self. Patañjali's first sūtra defines yoga as the cessation of mental modifications. This control is achieved by detaching from senses and thoughts, concentrating on the truth "I am the Ātmā, not the body." This practice, ātmā cintan, leads to experiential glimpses (ātmā anubhūti) and culminates in direct knowledge (ātmā bodha). To guide others, a teacher must study foundational texts like Patañjali's Yoga Sūtras and Śaṅkarācārya's works on non-dual Vedānta. The soul is an individual reflection of the eternal Ātmā, bound by karma until liberation. The greatest obstacle to this wisdom is not knowing Sanskrit, though translations exist. True discipline leads to stabilization in one's real nature. "Yogaḥ citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ." "Ātmā is nityam śuddham nirākāram nitya bodhaṁ cidānandam (everlasting, pure, formless, eternal knowledge and bliss)." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 405

Change is constant in the universe, life, and mind; our happiness depends on how we perceive it. We cannot stop change. Experts often discuss problems like climate change without offering solutions. The wise accept their ignorance and observe change without attachment, like watching a river flow. Life is that river, flowing between the banks of happiness and unhappiness. Time is precious and flows unceasingly. Neglecting spiritual practice leaves the heart empty, allowing negative forces to enter. The heart is a temple meant for the Divine, filled only through constant remembrance, mantra repetition, and work. Surrender to the Guru is essential to transcend the ego and change. True devotees see the divine light of the master in all directions and in everyone. Do not waste time in gossip or criticism, as this is a sin against the human opportunity. Practice diligently. "Mano mātra jagata—how your mind is projecting, like that the world appears in front of you." "Your heart was empty, and these troubles were waiting and waiting for the opportunity, the chance to enter in." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 404

Meditation faces inevitable disturbances from the three fires of existence. The world is inherently active, born from sound, and filled with thoughts connected to our latent impressions. These disturbances are categorized as ādhibhautik (from creatures), ādhidaivik (from energies and illness), and ādhyātmik (from within). They are the three tapas that burn. One cannot escape them by fleeing to solitude. A mantra is essential as a guiding torchlight through this jungle. Welcome all thoughts during meditation; use discernment to answer them, allowing them to merge back into calmness like waves into the ocean. If no thoughts arise, something is wrong. The mantra protects and leads beyond the physical level. Problems with the Maṇipūra, Anāhata, and Viśuddhi chakras have lifelong effects, especially when generating negative speech. Do not carry others' problems; instead, be one who resolves them. At death, one reviews all actions, and only the mantra provides light. Meditation without a mantra is like a body without a soul. Share your time through blessings and positive human qualities, which can alter destiny. The mantra dissolves the three fires, leading to unshakable happiness and ultimately to seedless samadhi. "During meditation, welcome all thoughts. When there are no more thoughts, then be sure something is wrong with you." "Meditation without a mantra is like a dead body which has no soul inside."

The cosmic Śakti is the universal energy that unites consciousness and creation, manifesting within all beings. This energy, the Kuṇḍalinī Śakti, flows through 72,000 nāḍīs in the human body, with three primary channels: Iḍā (moon, mind, emotion), Piṅgalā (sun, intellect, action), and Suṣumṇā (consciousness). The body's energy centers, or chakras, correspond to the five elements and different states of awareness, from the unconscious Mūlādhāra to the superconscious Sahasrāra. Awakening this energy requires discipline in diet, behavior, and thought, guided by mantra and meditation to purify subconscious impressions and past karma. This path leads from individual consciousness to cosmic consciousness, culminating in union with the divine. "The force within this which will guide you and which will give you the different experiences, happiness, that is what you call the kuṇḍalinī." "Without mantra, without guru mantra, you cannot awaken your kuṇḍalinī, and if you do, then there can be complications." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 402

The solution to global climate change is found within the individual, through correcting our inner climate. The outer crisis reflects an inner one of mental pollution, greed, and adharma. True sustainability is spiritual, requiring a return to dharma and ancient wisdom. This planet is a holy, living entity being destroyed by human desire. The imbalance in nature mirrors the turmoil within us, seen in broken families, disease, and attachment. Change must begin by purifying our thoughts and actions through spiritual practice like meditation, mantra, and satsang. Only by stabilizing our inner climate through devotion can we heal the outer world. "Peace begins from one heart, and charity begins from one home." "The hot climate is within the human thoughts. Everything is created by the mental pollution of the humans." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 400

The mind is a wish-fulfilling tree that grants desires which ultimately destroy us. We journey through a barren desert of life, navigating by stars and sun. A traveler, walking 50 kilometers on sand, finds a large tree for rest. He wishes for water, food, and a bed, and they appear. He then fears a ghost in the tree will kill him, and that fear manifests, killing him. This tree is the Kalpavṛkṣa, where any thought becomes reality. We are given a physical body, this temporary tree. Through it, we can fulfill wishes, but ambition and greed trap us beneath it. The mind is the ghost within the tree; we are its slaves, and it will destroy us. Another tale tells of a king who visits an ascetic. The ascetic reveals the king is a slave to his own mind, which the ascetic has mastered. Do not forget your ultimate destination on this journey. Do not become stuck in the illusions and desires of the physical form. "Under this tree, whatever you wish or whatever you think comes true." "You are the slave of my slave... My mind is my slave, and you are the slave of the mind." Filming location: Szeged, HU DVD 398

The body, mind, and soul must be harmonized. The body is a mortal structure of five elements, born to grow and die. It is a miraculous creation, yet a source of attachment and pain when imbalanced. The mind is an unseen function processing senses, desires, and intellect, often restless from unfulfilled cravings. The soul is the individual identity carrying karma, distinct from the universal, immortal Ātmā. Disharmony among these three causes suffering, even leading to despair. Yoga is the ancient science of balance and union. It uses gentle exercises, breath control like Prāṇāyāma, and techniques such as Brahmārī to regulate emotions, purify the mind, and guide consciousness toward liberation, creating harmony. "Yoga means balancing principle... Where there is a balance, there is a harmony." "Ātmā is immortal. Everlasting. Will never die. And never born." Filming location: Hungary DVD 397

Yoga in daily life is harmony for body, mind, and soul. Harmony is perfect health: physical, mental, social, and spiritual. Emotional problems arise from inner discontent and distorted thinking, affecting glandular systems and digestion. Ambition, connected to ego, leads to anger and misinterpreting others' good intentions. Disharmony manifests as tension, conflict, and an aura that darkens with negative thoughts. The soul radiates energy, touching the body's centers; harmonious thoughts brighten the aura. Family and communal gatherings, like shared meals and singing, create resonance that removes disharmony. If lacking a family, join a spiritual community. Satsang is essential, as spiritual companionship provides the wisdom-nourishment the soul requires. Practice Brahmari Pranayama to heal inner gaps and restore harmony. Positive thinking and acceptance are necessary; rejection breeds tension. All are interconnected parts of the one spiritual family. "Mental disappointment, disharmony, and emotion can cause physical trouble, social trouble, and spiritual trouble." "Where every day is the satsaṅg, bhagīsuī jana pavé. The blessed or fortunate ones are those who can go every day to the satsaṅg." Filming location: Hungary DVD 396
