Yoga is the cosmic science of uniting body, mind, and consciousness into oneness with Brahman, the singular, formless, and eternal reality. This truth is unchangeable, regardless of belief. The universe, a manifestation of this one God, operates through a divine resonance, the sound Oṁ, which pervades and unites all existence. The human body is a microcosm of this cosmos. The spiritual aim is to dissolve the individual ego and merge with Brahman, achieving permanent unity rather than temporary heavens. This requires systematic practice, self-inquiry, and ultimately surrendering all identity. Liberation is not found in worldly or heavenly enjoyments but in this direct realization. All spiritual teachings, like the principles of Yama and Niyama, guide this journey toward universal love and ultimate truth. "Eko brahma, dvitīya nāsti." — Only Brahman is the one; a second does not exist. "Prem galī ati saṅkarī, jahāṁ dui na samāī." — The street of love is so narrow, two cannot go together.

Yoga is a practical path requiring disciplined, conscious practice, not theoretical knowledge. True progress comes from quality, not quantity, and from daily foundational work. The simple, foundational exercises of the first and second steps are profoundly effective for holistic development. Practice must be slow and mindful, with full concentration on the body's sensations. This conscious movement purifies blood flow, builds energy, and strengthens the body and mind. It is not a competition; the only challenge is self-discipline. Rushing through postures for quantity negates the benefits. The goal is awareness and integration, where one becomes one with the movement, feeling every muscle and the resulting internal harmony. "Tons of theory cannot compare with a single gram of practice." "We do not need quantity; we need quality." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 218

Our so-called development is a path to destruction, distracting us from true sustainability. The natural world is perfect and self-supporting, while our man-made systems create pollution, stress, and war, driven by economic greed. True wealth is satisfaction, not endless wanting. We destroy forests, pollute water, and eradicate wild food sources, thinking only of ourselves while ignoring the creatures that maintain our ecosystem. Our actions throw nature out of balance. Yoga is the principle of balance—for the body, mind, and the universe. Our mental state creates our reality; through self-suggestion, we can choose happiness. We must live with compassion for all creatures, seeing the divine life in each. Humans are meant to be protectors, not destroyers. The cruelty of killing animals for food ignores their capacity for love and suffering, and our karmic consequences.

Sādhanā requires perfect technique and discipline, like following road rules to avoid an accident. The human body is an engine requiring sāttvic nourishment, not worldly fuel. The Maṇipūra Cakra is the vital center where prāṇa and apāna unite and where the soul enters; it is the seat of Hara Śakti, the life force governing immunity. Sound originates from the navel, with its dormant seed in the Maṇipūra. Chanting Oṃ in the Śabda Sañjālan practice awakens this sound, which rises to the Sahasrāra and flows to the heart, uniting the three nāḍīs at the Ājñā Cakra in a confluence called Trikuṭī. This inward bathing washes away karmas. Authentic sādhanā requires devotion and a spiritual lineage; self-made practices lack roots and bear no real fruit. Discipline is essential; losing it spoils the practice like milk soured by lemon. Begin with devotion to awaken the inner kingdom. "Yogāgni karoti dagdhaṃ—through the fire of yoga, you can burn all seeds of your karmas." "Where there are doubts and complexes, bhakti cannot be perfect. Bhakti is unconditional; then your yoga agni becomes strong." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 215

Daily practice and satsaṅg are essential for spiritual development. Maintain daily sādhanā without interruption, as consistency harmonizes body, mind, and consciousness. A special home program of āsanas, prāṇāyāma, and kriyā is designed for this. The human body is a precious opportunity. Advanced group practices require strict preparation and selection. All techniques serve as regeneration. Cultivating friendship through love and mutual understanding is vital social practice. Avoid harsh words and offer a smile and welcome to all. Satsaṅg provides inspiration, teaching, and liberation. To gain friends, one must first give confidence and learn to listen. Personal qualities determine experience, not the qualities of others. "Bada bhāga manuṣya tanu pāvā." "Dīpa dayāla arala suna lejo kara kṛpā moi satsaṅga lejo." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 213

A yoga teacher must be an example of awareness, humility, and heart-centered conduct. A thief took a watch, illustrating that some people simply do not care about others' troubles. We must learn to live alert and protect ourselves by protecting others. Selfishness and greed are dangerous; the greatest can renounce their place. Many come to yoga with problems, seeking solutions. Teachers often lack respect for each other and newcomers, creating a closed atmosphere. This behavior reflects on the entire lineage. A teacher must be like a cat's eye on the road, remaining clear and guiding despite pollution. Do not change the teaching system; consult organizers. When corrected, be ready to learn without ego, as shown in a story where a master tested for ego by rejecting perfect food. The heart needs heart, meaning mutual understanding, not intellect. Create harmony that extends beyond the classroom. "If he will think that I am sad, then he will not become a thief." "The heart needs another heart; the heart does not need another intellect."

Sūratā is the pure, wandering inner attention that must merge with the true Self. Sūratā is the virgin, representing pure intention and concentration. It is the constant awareness observing all directions, like a driver alert to the road. If this attention lapses, accidents occur. This attention wanders, placing faith in things only to withdraw it. The aim is to marry, meaning merge, this sūratā with the calm ātmā. The outer world is illusion; temptation and ego cause the loss of divine consciousness. The individual soul, due to ego, becomes ignorant of its true Brahman nature. One must find the Lord, the knower of Brahman. Spiritual practice may seem fruitless because hidden impurities remain, requiring purification. One should be thankful for the practice itself. "The accident happens so quickly we can hardly control anything. So the sūratā should be always alert." "O my Lord, please do not consider my mistakes." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 211B

The preciousness of retreat time is immense, for the mundane world awaits with its troubles. Returning home brings emptiness, unsuitable food, and the rush of work and parking tickets. This retreat is valuable, beautiful, and beneficial. You have 48 hours remaining; use them for practice, as this energy sustains the entire year. Do not focus on discipline or perceived lack. A shepherd followed a mysterious cow into a cave, clinging to its tail in darkness while repeating a mantra for protection. He discovered a hidden sanctuary with a sage, who thanked him for tending the cow but offered only a handful of barley as reward. Disappointed, the shepherd threw it away, only to later find diamonds stuck to his shawl, but he could not find the cave again. This cave is the retreat space, the practice of anuṣṭhāna. The cow symbolizes the tongue; holding it means repeating the mantra and guiding it within. Even a brief inner experience is profoundly significant, though it may be recognized only later. All practice requires grace to bear fruit. "Walking quickly, after 10, 15 minutes walking through the cave, suddenly the cave became bigger and some light was there." "And that is it. That cave is this place where we have our anuṣṭhāna." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 211A

The path of divine union is realized through the merging of individual consciousness with the absolute. Spiritual song, or bhajan, contains the entire philosophy, offering both inspiration and answers. It surpasses simple repetition of the divine name. Consciousness, or sūrat, is the virgin girl—the inner feeling and intention. The physical body does not travel through existences; the consciousness journeys through 8.4 million life forms seeking the true guru, the complete being. You are both that seeker and the sought, the divine masculine and feminine. Initiation and true marriage are not of the body or mind but the merging of this consciousness with the soul. When the sūrat connects to the ātmā, all worldly marriages dissolve into oneness. This union is the aim, achieved by concentrating all feeling and energy toward soul-knowledge. "The sūtra says, 'I couldn’t find my husband, I couldn’t find my Pūrṇa Puruṣa.'" "Marriage means to merge into oneness." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 210A

Sādhana requires the principles of Śayamit and Niyamit, guided by Viveka. Śayamit is control, the ability to say no to oneself, which requires the philosophy of viveka to discern. It involves withdrawal from distractions and maintaining borders for speech and action, observing oneself carefully. Niyamit is the daily discipline maintained forever. Sandhyā vandanā, prayer at dawn and dusk, honors the light and our senses, which have an eternal dharma to protect. This sādhanā of control and discipline, with a sāttvic life, purifies the mind. The aim is Ātmā Jñāna, achieved by balancing Jñāna, Bhakti, and Vairāgya. The mind makes wishes, the intellect judges, but viveka is the cream of intellect, separating truth from untruth. One must correct oneself first. Within you is an immeasurable fountain of joy and the immortal Ātmā. "Simit means border. Everything should have its border. Do not let your feelings and your senses go out of the border, out of control." "Viveka is that which will divide truth and untruth completely, like a lemon will spoil the milk, separating the paneer on one side and the water on the other side."

Honesty in yoga practice requires confronting our lack of progress. You came seeking harmony for body, mind, and soul. Yet after years of seminars, that goal remains unfulfilled. The problem is not with yoga, which is a divine science of balance. The problem lies within us. We hold onto desires, attachments, and illnesses while neglecting the practices that dispel them. Culture guides us toward a healthy life, but we have lost our direction. We search everywhere for the flower to offer, failing to recognize it is our own sincere effort. Examine how honestly you practice. Very few complete essential cleansing techniques. You must begin the actual work of Haṭha Yoga and meditation. Perform your service without ego or jealousy, as a blessed opportunity. Support this work as devoted siblings, turning all negativity into wisdom. "Either yoga is not that which can give you harmony, or you didn’t understand it; it didn’t touch your heart." "Therefore, the purpose of my telling this is: how honestly are you practicing? Do not tell me anything; only ask yourself." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 203B

The foundation of practice is daily discipline for health, which must precede spirituality. Many do not practice regularly at home, leading to physical problems. The body naturally produces illness (vikāra) and the qualities of tamas and rajas, but sattva requires diligent work. A body full of vikāra creates a mind full of vikāra, clouding the intellect and knowledge. The only purification is through consistent yoga practice. This includes daily asana, pranayama, and seasonal cleansing techniques. Diet is crucial; most have lost the knowledge of proper cooking and eating, consuming tamasic and rajasic foods instead of sattvic ones. You must become an example through your own health and discipline, washing out laziness and negativity. The path is defined by four points: diet (āhār), recreation (vihār), behavior (ācār), and thought (vicār). Begin seriously again. "Practice means at home, not only here. Here, you are merely learning." "When the body is unhealthy and full of vikāra, then thoughts are also full of vikāra." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 202B

The Rāmāyaṇa illustrates that pure devotion and selfless duty overcome all obstacles. Rāma was exiled for fourteen years due to a promise his father had to keep. His wife Sītā was then abducted by Rāvaṇa. To rescue her, Rāma needed to cross the ocean to Śrī Laṅkā. When the ocean did not yield, Hanumān wrote Rāma's name on a stone, causing it to float, and a bridge was built. This bridge has been discovered via satellite, evidencing the history. In the war, Lakṣmaṇa was mortally wounded. An Āyurvedic doctor stated only an herb from the Himalayas could save him, but it was impossibly far. Hanumān, devoted, flew to fetch the entire mountain. While carrying it, he was mistakenly shot by Bharata but, chanting Rāma's name, was recognized. He delivered the herb just before sunrise, saving Lakṣmaṇa. This is the power of a devotee's selfless action. Do not wait for others or think your duty is done. You do not work for anyone else; you work for yourself, as the fruit is yours. Do not measure your service, for measuring makes it selfish. Be selfless and humble in your work. "If you throw someone out of your hand, they no longer have any chance. They will sink." "Nothing is impossible for a bhakta. When the Lord is on the side of the bhakta, nothing is impossible." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 202A

The cultivation of relationship is the essence of a successful life. We often fail to value connections until they are gone, realizing too late we could have understood, tolerated, or spoken more. This applies to all relations. A deep human relationship imprints the subconscious and later surfaces as memory and feeling; this is not attachment. Attachment is the selfish desire to possess, breeding jealousy and suffering. Modern life isolates people, eroding community. Humanity now faces four great problems born from neglect: environmental pollution, mass immigration, employment crises, and water scarcity. These stem from a mindset of "I do not care." True spirituality is to care for this living planet and all beings. Cultivate relationships by giving attention, understanding, and support without expectation. Do not divide the world into yours and mine. Multiply yourself through friendship with all creatures. Protect these gentle bonds as one would protect a small flame in a storm. "When once a deep relation takes place, then it prints certain motifs on your subconsciousness." "Attachment is when you only want to have something for yourself, and it creates in you jealousy."

The eternal disciple-master relationship transcends physical succession. Liberation depends on disciplined living, not mere practice. A true disciple carries the work forward with purity, never becoming the guru. The master remains the eternal guide and the way to the divine. A successor sits on the master's seat but does not become the master, just as a son cannot become the father of his father. The disciple's dilemma is whom to greet first when both Guru and God appear; the answer is to honor the Guru first, for through the Guru one meets God. One must never forget one's origin. The principles of yama and niyama, ethical discipline and self-control, are essential. When the master left the body, it followed a prayer for his release from suffering, affirming the enduring spiritual bond beyond physical form. "Liberation depends on discipline, the way of life—how you speak, how you live, how you talk." "A disciple will never be a guru. A disciple will ever be a disciple."

Faith, practice, and true company are the path to fulfillment. Everything is accomplished through divine grace. Do not abandon your positive resolve amidst life's difficulties; changing your commitment means losing something invaluable. We often fail to value what we have until it is gone. Human life is a rare and powerful tool for realization, endowed with intellect and will. Laziness is the greatest enemy, followed by anger, jealousy, and greed; these must be overcome. Surrender must be complete and permanent for lasting happiness. External efforts to defy aging are a temporary play; we must accept nature. The core practice is to constantly remember the divine name through mantra, in any circumstance. This repetition is counted and builds spiritual wealth. Satsang—truthful company—is of supreme value. A story illustrates that one minute of genuine satsang surpasses 60,000 years of isolated practice. Attend satsang with an open, empty heart to receive its wisdom. "You will harvest five tons more than your estimate." "One minute of satsaṅg is greater than 60,000 years of tapas and sādhanā." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 199A

Cultivate kindness by seeing yourself in others and practicing non-harm. The ancient sage Dadhīcī donated his bones while alive to save all creatures, embodying the principle of treating others as you wish to be treated. This foundational rule of Dharma is kindness, while ego is the root of sin; therefore, never abandon the grace in your heart. Karma accumulates with individuality and requires daily purification through prayer and meditation, which are essential for mental clarity. When feeling blocked in any way, the solution is to give generously, for energy must flow to remain pure. Collective giving lightens burdens and serves society, as faith in providence sustains charitable works. Helping others—whether through material, intellectual, or physical means—opens all internal blockages and aligns one with higher spiritual realms. "Do not do to others what you do not like to be done to you." "The foundation of Dharma, where it stands solid, is kindness." Filming location: Kranj, Slovenia DVD 198B

The journey of consciousness progresses from the Mūlādhāra to the Svādhiṣṭhāna Cakra. The universe is an endless cosmic mother containing balanced consciousness and willpower. The divine sound AUM is the source of all creation, resonating within every atom. This human life on the karma planet is a unique opportunity for development using the intellect. The body is composed of five elements, and within all creatures resides the reflection of the one cosmic Self. Knowing the self is the path to liberation, requiring practice like yoga rather than mere theory. Kuṇḍalinī is the dormant power of personal destiny within the unconscious. This energy resides at the Mūlādhāra and seeks union with pure consciousness, Śiva, at the Sahasrāra Cakra. The journey ascends through channels and energy centers, confronting stored karma. The Svādhiṣṭhāna Cakra is the 'place of the self,' associated with the water element, awakening energy, and the color orange. Its symbol is a half-moon, and it holds the six obstacles: anger, hate, greed, jealousy, cruelty, and laziness, often symbolized by a crocodile representing passion. This center is governed by the creator Brahmā and the wisdom of Sarasvatī. One must purify desires and overcome these negative qualities to progress. Liberation is the union of the individual soul with the supreme soul. "Tons of theory is nothing compared with a gram of practice." "Know thyself is the way to liberation." Filming location: Ljubljana, Slovenia DVD 198A

Kuṇḍalinī is the energy and consciousness within, containing all karma, destiny, and the soul. This individual self is like a balloon holding everything. Śiva is the pure, liberating consciousness, the ultimate truth and beauty, present equally in all. Śakti is the dynamic energy entangled with karma, longing to merge with Śiva. Their union is liberation, transcending past, present, and future. Human life is the sole opportunity for this realization. Without it, the cycle of rebirth continues. Awakening is a subtle, indescribable spiritual process, not physical. It requires years of preparation through practice, diet, and cultivating virtues under a master's guidance to proceed safely upward without falling back. The spiritual lineage protects and guides this journey. "Śiva means consciousness. It is consciousness, not in a physical form." "Human life is the opportunity where you can have a lawyer to solve all the problems, to become free of this prison. That lawyer is spiritual knowledge." Filming location: Kranj, Slovenia DVD 197B

Kundalini is the dormant power within consciousness that directs destiny. This serpentine energy, symbolizing time and transformation, resides in physical centers. Destiny is the product of one's own past actions, like a thrown stone that cannot be recalled. Life is constantly accompanied by both knowledge and time, with time acting as the shadow of death. Harmony is achieved by acting with awareness of place and time, controlling emotions that cause problems. The rare opportunity for liberation requires a human birth, spiritual upbringing, personal interest, and a master's guidance. Kundalini awakening is the enlightenment of wisdom and love within, changing one's consciousness and attitude. "Destiny is the product of your own actions. No one is there to be blamed." "Act according to the time and place. Whoever can adjust himself or herself in this time and situation... will be successful." Filming location: Kranj, Slovenia DVD 197A

Be faithful to yourself and practice. Practice leads you to your destination through concentrated work, not mere intellectual study. Humans suffer from distorted relations and have abused nature, becoming the most troubled and restless beings. One must be merciful to oneself. Remembering God and practicing is crucial, as life has passed without His name. A story illustrates this: two brothers, one a Bhakti Yogi devoted to practice, the other a Jñāna Yogi focused on intellectual study. The Jñāna Yogi criticized his brother's incorrect mantras and pūjā, but later witnessed him walk on water through pure devotion. A farmer explained that a seed grows regardless of how it is planted, just as God responds to a pure heart, not perfect pronunciation. The lesson is that practice with faith yields fruit, while intellectual knowledge alone does not. Do not waste time debating methods; whatever you have, practice it faithfully now. "Too much reading also leads you nowhere; it is only intellectual information. Therefore, practicing is very important." "It doesn't matter how you throw the seed in the earth, it will grow. Whether you put it right side or wrong side, the seed will grow." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 196A

The inner universe is explored through the concepts of ākāśa (space) and chakras. Ākāśa is divided into types. Ghaṭākāśa is the limited space within a pot or vessel. Māṭākāśa is the space within a house, defined by its atmosphere. Cidākāśa is the space of individual consciousness, which expands or contracts with thought and holds our mental impressions. Ākāśa is the visible physical space. Mahākāśa is the endless universe. The real Self is like this indestructible space. Our inner world manifests the outer world. Symbols like chakras are expressions of this inner reality. They are psychic centers reflected in the physical body. For meditation, visualize them at a distance within your expansive Cidākāśa, not just inside the physical form. Purification of the intellect center is crucial before awakening other centers. Practice should be done with proper technique and prāṇāyāma, avoiding substance abuse. Symbols carry cultural meanings but their essence is universal. The four petals of a chakra symbol represent the four ways life manifests and the four human aims: dharma, artha, kāma, and mokṣa. "Balihārī us ghaṭkī, jahāṁ pragat bole ae—adoration to that heart in which He speaks." "Śāntoṣī nara sadā sukhī—a satisfied person, a content person is ever happy."

The chakras are energy centers with distinct levels and borders. Earth chakras at the soles connect to depression. Vegetation centers around the feet accelerate aging. Animal chakras from ankles to knees foster lower consciousness. The border between animal and human levels is here. Five human chakras remain mixed with animal qualities. The Viśuddhi to Ājñā chakras form the intellect center, the border to divine consciousness. Awakening the Ājñā, the guru chakra, realizes the inner master. The Mūlādhāra is the foundational root and cause of life, our physical and psychic base. Its red color represents Earth, blood, and Śakti energy. The lotus symbolizes purity and devotion. "Gu means darkness, and Ru means light. You enter into the light of wisdom and cross the border of this darkness." "Mūlādhāra is the basic cause... What was the basic reason? According to this, life is given." Filming location: Umag, Croatia DVD 194A

To achieve anything in life, we need the principles of tapa, tyāga, vairāgya, and jñāna. These are required for all endeavors, not just spiritual work. Tapa is the fire of endurance through difficulties; we must not give up when situations become hard. This endurance is tapasyā. Our greatest weakness is complaining and anger. The world is created from the mind; we can create a beautiful or unpleasant world based on our perception. Tyāga is non-attachment, giving up through intellect to avoid situations. Attachment from ignorance causes suffering; love from knowledge brings happiness. Renounce to be happy. Do not collect possessions, as they become a burden. Renounce negative inner qualities like jealousy and greed. We need jñāna, wisdom, to avoid destroying valuable relationships out of ignorance. These qualities are within us; their awakening is the awakening of Kuṇḍalinī, which should liberate you. Your duty is to make others happy. Do your dharma regardless of others' actions. Forgive and understand those acting from ignorance. The grassroots work begins with your own development, utilizing the inner qualities you already possess. "Enter the kingdom of the Lord through the gate of sacrifice." "Renounce and enjoy." Filming location: Umag, Croatia DVD 193B

The purpose of yoga is the development of consciousness and the awakening of spiritual energy, not for siddhis. There are two kinds of māyā, or illusion. The first is worldly temptation, which takes the form of whatever you desire, like money or passion. It is a close friend of the dead and will eventually leave you helpless. We must live in māyā like a lotus in water, nourished by it but not attached. The second māyā is the temptation of siddhis, or miracles, which become friends to your ego. If you demonstrate them, you become māyā's slave. Spiritual awakening is accompanied by miracles, but by the first small miracle, we often fail, thinking we no longer need a master. Therefore, do not fall for miracles. Our dharma is to protect and support others, not to take or destroy. Human life is a rare opportunity given by luck, not sin. We are bound by karma, and our destiny is seated in the Mūlādhāra chakra. The light of knowledge and acceptance can remove negative karma, but some destiny we must go through. Kuṇḍalinī is this power of destiny. Work together in unity, not division. "Kabīr Dās said, 'I realized that Māyā is the greatest cheater.'" "Swāmī Lālanandjī Mahārāj said... 'I ask only for one thing: the dust of thy lotus feet.'" Filming location: Umag, Croatia DVD 193A

Modern life is fast and difficult, creating inner struggle. The practice shown here addresses this. True connection transcends physical distance through love. This love must be awakened to fulfill human duties: protecting the environment, showing kindness, and fostering mutual understanding across all religions and cultures. All are one, united by the same divine consciousness within every being. Preserving one's own traditional culture, language, and customs is vital for protecting society's ethical values. Every culture is beautiful and deserves respect. Yoga in Daily Life is not mere exercise but a 24-hour practice integrating non-violence, responsibility, and dignity into all actions, thoughts, and relations. Humans must learn the highest form of giving: humble forgiveness. We are born to help, as seen in projects providing water and education. The future depends on parents prioritizing love and character education for children over money or position. This integrated system aims to create a healthy, free-thinking society. Yoga is a universal principle of body, mind, and consciousness, older than any religion, leading to freedom through love, service, and kindness. "Where there is love, there is no distance. If there is no love, even the neighbor’s house is millions of kilometers away." "Culture, religion, and humans are very close; you cannot separate them. They have to be in one place, and that is why every culture should be kept alive." Filming location: Croatia DVD 192B

Peace is the highest ideal, without which all other ideals are unreachable. This summit reaffirms the message of nonviolence and unity. World peace requires rising above boundaries of nation, politics, and religion. It begins within the individual heart. If there is no inner peace, we cannot create peace in the world. Sustainable development is the sustainable relation between humans and nature. The virtues that make lasting peace possible are tolerance, respect, understanding, and love. We must be the change we wish to see. "One in all and all in one. That cosmic light is in every creature." "Peace is not a religion, not a philosophy, and not a politic, but it is a universal principle." Filming location: Czech Republic DVD 191

Life is a mystery whose hidden blessing is happiness, sought by all. The seed of complete bliss is self-knowledge derived from God. The human birth is given to end sorrow and attain supreme joy through spiritual practice and holy company. A seeker found his divine teacher at seventeen, seeing the form of Krishna within him. He became a true disciple, dedicating everything. He was initiated into the highest monastic order, achieving the highest consciousness. The teacher's life was a constant strengthening in spiritual experience under his Guru's merciful guidance. As the spiritual heir, he established and cared for ashrams. He taught the glory of the soul and God across the world. He was a tireless speaker for tolerance and peace, teaching non-violence as the highest religion. His strength came from deep meditation and repeating his Guru's name with immense love and devotion for many hours daily. Such pure love removes all obstacles between the seeker and God. He authored his Guru's biography and was honored as a King of Dharma. After eighty years, his consciousness merged with the Cosmic. His disciple continues the divine mission. The saint in Mahasamadhi remains a majestic memory. "My eyes were filled with tears, and I fell on my knees. I knew that I had found the eternal light of my life."

The heart of this center is unity through selfless service. Founded on a vision of yoga as unity, it manifests as humanitarian action. The central building, shaped like Om, symbolizes divine beauty and balance. Education is a core mission, providing for poor, orphaned, and disabled children to create balanced citizens. The center operates a hospital, a fire service, and a cow sanctuary, offering refuge and care. A major water project created a lake and hill to secure water for the area, turning desert into life. Tree planting supports this sustainable development. The strength for all service comes from inner yoga practice, controlling body, breath, and mind to find wholeness.

The science of Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness. Yoga is the eternal balancing principle in the universe, not a religion or philosophy. Within the human body lies a dormant treasure of wisdom and abilities connected to energy centers called chakras. We have ten senses that connect us to the external world, and a mind that transfers impressions into the subconscious, where they become desires. Our intellect judges these desires. The human body contains 72,000 nāḍīs, or energy channels. Three main nāḍīs are Iḍā (moon, emotion), Piṅgalā (sun, intellect), and Suṣumṇā (central path of consciousness). Their crossing points form major chakras. Kuṇḍalinī is the dormant divine power at the base of the spine. Its awakening is the awakening of wisdom and consciousness, a union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness. This process purifies dormant karmas and leads to liberation. Chakras are connected to the five elements and influence our physical and psychic health. Mastery of them requires lifelong practice under guidance. Human life is the precious chance to achieve this liberation. "Yoga is not a religion, not a philosophy, not a dogma. It is the eternal principle in this universe."

The physical form becomes a living temple through devotion and realization. A spiritual master's life is an opportunity for self and God-knowledge. Complete devotion to the teacher raises the individual soul to the divine. After eighty years, the immortal soul left its mortal abode. The community gathered in cosmic pain for a final meeting. The body of a saint is interred, not cremated, as it is a temple where God lived. The spiritual lineage passes to a designated heir after a period. The inauguration formalizes the transfer of wisdom and responsibility. The unbroken chain of knowledge is preserved through direct transmission from teacher to disciple.

Yoga is a discipline for mastering the mind and body, a lifelong process. Patañjali identified the core problem as vṛttis—the thoughts and desires arising in the mind. These restless thoughts can uproot your beliefs and create suffering. Success requires controlling these vṛttis through yogic discipline, yet this control itself requires discipline, creating a challenging cycle. Problems arise from the interaction between the self and the external world; you cannot make a sound with only one hand. Limit your needs and avoid unnecessary external situations that provoke thoughts. Do not judge thoughts immediately; allow wisdom to filter them. The mind creates divisions and borders where none exist. First, seek union with yourself by reconciling your thoughts, intellect, and emotions. Surrender to the divine as you are, without pretense, for God knows everything. Help others until their last breath, for destruction is quick but construction is difficult. Use your intellect to purify your vṛttis, for they shape your reality. "Yogaś citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ: through the practice of yoga, you can control your thinking process."

Prosperity encompasses material and spiritual cleanliness, attracting divine grace. Maintain purity in environment, body, and thoughts. Physical preparation and mental discipline are required for spiritual practice. Life's experiences are like milk; churning them through reflection extracts the essence. Study the inner chapters of your life, its expectations and obstacles. Practice diligently to overcome difficulties. Most exist divided into many pieces by worldly attachments and wounds. True peace arises when life becomes settled and one feels complete within. Judge which inner forces govern you and invite only those that bring harmony. "Lakṣmī runs there where there is purification, cleanness: clean dress, clean bed... clean heart and clean thoughts." "Through the svādhyāya and through the manana... try to feel yourself as a complete being." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 169b

The prophecy of Nārada reveals a destined path that challenges worldly expectations. He predicts Pārvatī will be seen as lacking qualities and glory, separated from her parents, and married to an ascetic yogi. Her parents, wishing for conventional happiness, are distressed. Pārvatī, however, accepts the words as truth. This highlights a conflict: worldly consciousness desires social success, while spiritual consciousness seeks a higher union. Parents often project their unfulfilled dreams onto children, restricting their freedom. The prophecy, though seemingly fixed, suggests destiny is not absolute. By embracing the prediction, Pārvatī's devotion awakens, directing her toward Śiva. The path is difficult, like obtaining a hard-to-reach fruit, requiring steadfast tapasyā without comfort or compromise. True change requires merging individual consciousness with the cosmic, not merely imitating divine forms. "People will always think that she has no qualities. She will have little glory." "Therefore, Pārvatī, go and make tapasyā, awake your devotion more and more... Just stick to your aim and concentrate on that." Filming location: To be dete DVD 169a

The sorrow of Satī arises from familial rejection and the consequences of doubt. King Dakṣa organizes a grand yajña, inviting all devas except Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. Satī, Śiva's consort, sees the celestial procession and wishes to attend her father's festival. Śiva cautions her, noting the deliberate lack of invitation stems from Dakṣa's enmity and warns she will face disrespect. Despite this, driven by attachment, she insists. Śiva reluctantly permits her, sending guards for protection. Upon arrival, only her mother welcomes her; Dakṣa ignores her. Satī discovers no ritual place allotted for Śiva at the yajña, realizing the insult. Overwhelmed by anger and remorse for doubting Śiva, she immolates herself through yogic fire. The assembly is thrown into turmoil. Śiva learns of her death as the yajña encounters obstacles. "Lord, at the house of my father, there is a big festival. If you permit me, Lord Merciful One, I may go there with great respect." "If you go without invitation, in my opinion, it isn't good." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 168b

The glory of satsaṅg is the power of spiritual unity, not individualism. A solitary drop cannot flow; many drops must unite to form a stream, then a river, and finally reach the ocean. Satsaṅg is this gathering where spiritual power is built, elevating one's being. Good companionship cultivates only good thoughts and qualities. In contrast, bad company acts like a sour agent, spoiling the milk of one's spirit and causing separation. Therefore, one must pray for true satsaṅg and avoid harmful associations. The story of Satī illustrates the pain of separation born from doubt and self-inflicted error. She carried a burning sorrow within, recognizing her mistake in doubting Śiva. After a long period of meditation, Śiva emerged and offered a gentle presence, beginning to share wisdom. This teaches that suffering arises from our own conditioned thinking, and peace is found through forgiveness, understanding, and turning inward. "Whoever is individualistic will have a problem. That drop will take time to come." "O Lord, mercifully please see that I am faithful, the true one, and help me." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 168a

The path to self-realization is the non-dual knowledge of the Ātman. Śaṅkarācārya's Advaita teaches that all apparent forms are one reality, like gold in various ornaments. The highest knowledge is Ātmajñāna, self-realization. This knowledge is lost without discipline, like a forgotten dream. One must return to Svādhyāya, Manana, and Abhyāsa under a Master, who is the source of liberation. The mantra Śrī Hariṁ Paramānandaṁ Upadeṣṭāram Īśvaraṁ invokes the all-pervading divine teacher. Devotion requires complete surrender of ego. The goal is Mokṣa Siddhi, liberation, attained through Guru-Vākya and lifelong practice. Human birth is a grace for this pursuit. One must follow one's Dharma as a tapasya, cultivating fearlessness. Satsaṅg with the enlightened provides intuition. The first Sādhana is Vairāgya, dispassion born from discerning the transient world from the eternal Brahman. "Brahma Satya Jagan Mithyā." The decision to turn toward blissful consciousness is yours. "All is one. Why? Because it is gold." "Brahma Satya Jagan Mithyā." Filming location: Salzburg, Austria DVD 166b

The teaching of Śaṅkarācārya establishes non-dualism. He is the highest authority, an incarnation of knowledge who knew all scriptures. His concise text contains knowledge for many lifetimes. The core truth is non-duality; apparent differences are merely forms, like various ornaments made from the same gold. The seeker's path is toward this unity, yet even the desire for liberation is a binding desire. Human life is marked by dependency and fear, yet humans possess the unique capacity for freedom through self-knowledge. Ignorance manifests as doubt, comparison, and limiting beliefs, which sever trust. The solution is to know the true Self, the pure Ātmā, which is divine bliss. Intellectual understanding is a reflection, a necessary step toward direct realization. The first master, the omnipresent divine Self, is the source of all teachings. Realized knowledge brings independence and fearlessness. "Na muktir na bandhaḥ, cidānandarūpaḥ, śivo'haṃ śivo'haṃ." "Śrī Harim Paramanandam Upadeṣṭhā Īśvaram."

Mantra is a divine sound channeling cosmic power into consciousness. Creation occurred through sound. Yogis discovered the supreme power governing all, named God. To unite with this power, one must find a channel; mantras are these channels. Mantras are vibration, resonance, and God itself. They form a cosmic language, with Sanskrit being a primary example derived from such sounds. While human language contains both positive and negative words, mantras are predominantly holy, though some have been corrupted for harmful purposes. The word 'mantra' means to liberate the mind from material attachment. It functions as a filter, removing negative energy and directing consciousness toward purity. Mantra is a light dispelling ignorance and a healing force restoring original conditions. Mastery requires dedicated practice and personal discipline over many years. "Man is the mind, and 'tra' is liberation: to liberate your mind from material attachment and to come to Cosmic Consciousness." "The mantra is like a torchlight which shows you a way to walk through the darkness of this world." Filming location: Szeged, HU DVD 161b

The Mūlādhāra Chakra is the foundation of human consciousness and the seat of destiny. This root center at the base of the spine is the support for life and consciousness. It holds Prārabdha, the destiny created from past deeds, which determines the conditions of one's life. This destiny is a powerful energy that shapes all experience. Spiritual practice aims to understand and purify this foundation. The path involves Svādhyāya, Manana, and Abhyāsa—study, deep reflection, and disciplined practice. These three principles remove the three obstacles: Mala (impurity), Vikṣepa (disturbances), and Āvaraṇa (the curtain of ignorance). Purification is achieved through positive deeds, meditation, tolerance, and guidance. Kriyā Yoga techniques, including prāṇāyāma, mantra, and mudrā, purify the nāḍīs and awaken the Kuṇḍalinī Śakti dormant in the Mūlādhāra. This divine energy is the power of transformation, leading to wisdom and an open heart. The red color symbolizes the Śakti, the Mother Earth, representing the foundational energy from which all life arises. "Destiny is from the past, and so our destiny is dormant in the Mūlādhāra Cakra." "Svādhyāya, manana, and abhyāsa, these three principles will remove the other three qualities: mala, vikṣepa, and āvaraṇa." Filming location: Umag, Croatia DVD 160b

Awakening to our divine nature is the purpose of human life. You are fortunate to attend this spiritual gathering. Our prime duty is to protect creatures and live with mutual love. The light of your life is the light of God; knowing yourself is knowing God. You brought nothing into this world and will take nothing, not even the body. Do not waste this rare human life on mere eating and sleeping like animals. Spirituality is purity of consciousness and behavior: tolerance, forgiveness, and love. Search for your own mistakes, not the faults of others. Do not act immediately; take time to understand. Surrender to God and accept all life events with thankfulness. Yoga is the cosmic principle of balancing energy, not just physical postures. Awaken your inner consciousness and develop divine qualities. You must liberate yourself; others can only help if you choose to stand. Dependency on others causes suffering, but love is unconditional and demands nothing. You are not separated from God; He multiplied Himself, and all is He. The highest realization is oneness, where knower, knowledge, and object become one. "Know thyself. If you know yourself, you will know everything." "You are not separated from God. He did not send you away. He is in you." Filming location: Umag, Croatia DVD 160a

Yoga is the science of balancing body, mind, and consciousness to achieve union with the cosmic source. Our problems often stem from a lack of internal harmony. Yoga offers a practical path, not just theory, to cultivate this balance. The ultimate goal is the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness. This requires purifying our qualities, moving beyond base emotions like anger and greed to embody human virtues such as love and kindness. We are not merely the physical body or the soul, which is a collection of qualities; the true self is the light that can merge with the divine. Practice is essential, including physical postures for health, breath control to calm the mind, and meditation for self-knowledge. The subtle body contains energy centers, or chakras, like the svādhiṣṭhāna, which governs emotions and creativity. Awakening and purifying these centers is key to spiritual progress. "Yoga is a balancing principle which balances the entire universe." "Know thyself is the answer to all your questions." Filming location: Karlovac, CRO DVD 159b

The path requires selfless service and inner practice. We are human and make mistakes, often projecting faults onto others instead of ourselves. God sees everything. Success in spiritual practice faces obstacles from both divine and negative forces. The greatest donation is giving the name of God to others. All work, like organizing spiritual programs, is ultimately for your own soul's liberation, as illustrated by Hanuman's service to Rama. You liberate yourself through your actions; no guru can do it for you without your effort. You are divine but must behave accordingly. Spiritual practice involves three elements: Svādhyāya, studying inspiring texts and your own inner life; Manan, constant reflection on truth and fostering unity with all beings; and Abhyāsa, the practice that leads to perfection, directing all feelings and actions toward God. Life is short; you will leave this world taking only your deeds. Harmonize with those around you, letting go of likes and dislikes to see the inner light. Do not destroy spiritual work through discord. "All that he did was for himself, for his soul, for his liberation." "You are the divine. You are the holy. Yes, you are, but you don't behave like that." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia DVD 159a

Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness, a balancing principle that harmonizes our inner self. It originates from Cosmic Consciousness, governed by the divine energy Yogamāyā. This energy takes on qualities as it moves through the universe. Yoga means union—the reunion of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness. There is only one God, existing in all creatures. Human intellect can be trained limitlessly. The human body contains energy channels called nāḍīs and centers called chakras. Life is an endless cycle of rebirth. The greatest tragedy is to die without self-realization, which is necessary for God-realization. The body is a precious instrument for this work. Energy flows through 72,000 nāḍīs, with three primary ones: Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumṇā. Specific breathing techniques balance the mind and concentration. Chakras govern human personality and can be awakened through practice. One has five bodies, with the soul inside. Liberation is complete oneness with God, requiring the surrender of personal ego. Past karma is stored in the Mūlādhāra Chakra; purifying it can change destiny. The practice involves positive thinking, kindness, and duty. True union is like merging quality with quality. The goal is to awaken dormant energy for spiritual progress and service, fostering world peace through love and tolerance. "Yoga means union—the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness." "Know thyself is the answer to all your questions, the end of all your sufferings, and the way out of the circle of birth and death." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia DVD 158b

Our mission is to bring peace and self-realization. Fighting with weapons cannot bring peace; only love and flowers can. We fight out of ignorance, for temporary possessions and power that do not belong to us. We have only two days: yesterday and today. The human body is a precious chance to serve and realize God. To end suffering, we must ask: who am I? I am not the body, mind, or intellect. Knowing yourself is knowing God. Ignorance creates hate, jealousy, and greed. The divine science of yoga balances the universe and unites individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness. It is a practical system for physical, mental, and spiritual health. The mind is a process between subconscious and conscious; we cannot stop it, but through meditation we can direct it toward peace and God. Awaken your inner energy through practice. Do not die without realizing God; this human life is a rare opportunity. "With weapons, with guns, you cannot bring peace. But with flowers and with love, you can bring peace to the world." "If you know thyself, you know everything, and if you do not know yourself, you do not know anything." Filming location: Vinkovci, CRO DVD 158a

The mind's delusion under desire is a test requiring divine intervention to cure. Nārada, a sage, is asked to evaluate a princess's qualities. Upon seeing her, he becomes captivated, forgetting his detachment. He privately extols her virtues but gives her father only superficial praise. Consumed by the desire to marry her, he abandons his spiritual practices. He concludes only God can help and prays to Vishnu for divine beauty. Vishnu appears, listens, and promises to do what is truly good for Nārada, comparing Himself to a doctor who treats the disease, not the symptom. Confident, Nārada attends the princess's ceremony, believing he is supremely beautiful. Unseen by others, Vishnu has given him a monkey-like face, visible only to the princess. She ignores him and chooses Vishnu, who has appeared as a king. Two observing devotees of Shiva, aware of the illusion, later tell the despondent Nārada to look at his reflection. Upon seeing his true form, he curses them in anger. "He forgot his sādhanā. He could not do his japa. No japa, no tapa—only suffering." "God said, 'If a person is ill and asks for some medicine, the doctor will not give it to him.'" Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 157a

Pride and divine illusion are central themes. The inner divine self knows all and protects. Success infected with ego is lost. Life has waves; climbing a mountain means eventually descending. Pray for liberation at the summit to avoid falling. Words, once spoken, do not return and can cause damage, like a bullet. Ego expands until it explodes, blinding us. Wisdom can digest ego, but pride often prevails. The divine may intervene to uproot a devotee's ego for their benefit. The entire world is created from the mind. When divine illusion is activated with a specific aim, its beauty is indescribable. Even a sage, upon seeing such crafted beauty, can forget his dispassion and become confused. "Success may be achieved, but if that success becomes infected with ego, it can be lost again." "The word spoken from your mouth will not come back. What damage that bullet will cause, you will know afterward." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 156b

Words possess inherent power and must be used with great care, for they manifest reality. Even divine incarnations may undergo curses for a higher purpose, as all action requires a reason. The ego arises from claiming personal victory, forgetting divine protection. Spiritual practice is a shelter where all yogas unite, offering peace and removing stress. Fear, especially of losing position, is a sign of ignorance and leads to destructive actions. External temptations attack one's discipline, but the true danger lies within, in the pride of "I" that follows success. "Your words should come true. Therefore, one should be very careful in saying something to someone." "No one is wise and no one is foolish. It is only God’s will." Filming location: To be de DVD 156a

Guru Pūrṇimā celebrates the supreme principle of the Guru, the dispeller of darkness. This day marks the descent of the sun's light and the birth of the sage Vyāsa, whose holy throne represents eternal wisdom. Sanātana Dharma is the primordial, uncreated religion, distinct from man-made faiths. The Guru transforms the disciple, bringing light where there was ignorance. This full moon commences the spiritual year, a time for seekers to offer the fruits of their practice and renew their dedication. The devotee's longing for the Master is profound, a sleepless devotion that uplifts and purifies. Spiritual growth is cultivated in the field of one's own effort, under the Master's guidance and grace. "Gu means darkness, and Ru means light, where the darkness disappears and light appears." "Guru Deva is the jewel of the forest, and the disciple is the iron. When the disciple comes to the Guru Deva, he changes from iron into gold." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 155a

The form of knowledge is the nature of the Self, which is pure, formless, and immortal. The body is subject to change, disease, and death; it is full of impurity and is unreal. The true Self, the Ātman, is none of these. It is Nirvikāra—free from decay and disease. It is Nirākāra—without form, so death cannot touch it. It is Avināśī—eternal and indestructible. Identifying with the body leads to suffering, fear, and sadness. Identifying with the Ātman brings liberation. Through inquiry, meditation, and the master's word, one realizes: "I am not the body; I am pure consciousness, everywhere, eternal, and free." This knowledge ends all suffering. "This body is full of vikāra. This śarīra, vikāra is already present from birth." "Your Ātman is pure consciousness... I am formless, and I am purity. Formless and imperishable, who have no fear of anything." Filming location: Vienna, Austria DVD 152a
