The practice of purity and compassion is universal, rooted in non-violence. Life feeds on life within nature's cycle, yet the highest being should not consume another. The sacredness of all life calls for avoiding exploitation. Observing dairy practices reveals the taking of milk meant solely for the calf, leading many to adopt veganism, forsaking all animal products. This aligns with spiritual aim, for consuming life returns one to the cycle, while purity leads beyond. Health is supported by this pure diet. The practice of 'Yoga in Daily Life' must embody this dietary purity to be complete. Many now follow this path for compassion, health, and spirit. "Life feeds on life." "If we want to go to God, then we go there. Otherwise, one goes into other forms." Filming location: Hotel Tatra, Poprad, Slovakia

Maintaining health and purity through yoga and conscious living is essential. A period of global difficulty was endured through disciplined practice at home. This practice sustains life. The guidance given long ago was to avoid meat and alcohol, which many adopted, leading to healthier generations. The treatment of animals is a concern; some advocate for not taking from them, aligning with vegan principles. Caution is required regarding new substances added to food. Personal health must be guarded by choosing pure nourishment. The collective practice ensures well-being for oneself and family. "Your power was this, that you stayed very good." "Tell them, 'No meat and no alcohol.'" Filming location: Jogacentrum, Levoca, Slovakia

The nature of practice is to inquire into what you are not, to discover the Self. We perform many actions and yoga postures, naming animals and forms, but you are not that movement or those names. You are not the body practicing. We identify with elements like water, necessary for life, yet you are not that either. We live within a body and a world, like passengers in an aeroplane, but this too is not you. Life appears and disappears, and we question where the prāṇa goes. We speak of God but have not seen God. The ultimate reality is described as light, yet even that description falls away into nothingness. The practice is to see that all these appearances—the body, the world, the elements—are not you. The true state is a oneness beyond all forms and descriptions, where there is no separation. Be with this inquiry. "All that is moving is not you; it is that." "There is no light also, it’s going dead." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The highest practice is skill in action, known as karma kauśalam. All activities, from meditation to eating, constitute karma. Past actions, whether good or bad, are one kind. The essential skill is how one performs action now. This human life is given to perform karma that leads toward cosmic life. Every action has an effect, like food becoming either poison or the nectar of immortality. The practice involves turning all daily activities into conscious, skillful work. This transforms life itself into a path. "Yogaḥ karmasu kauśalam." "Our action is of two kinds: negative and positive."

Today is the incarnation of Bhagavān Śrī Gaṇeśa. Gaṇeśa is the first God to be worshipped. He is like Bholenāth, fulfilling wishes. Gaṇeśa should not be taken merely as a physical form; it has many meanings. He is the foundation, balancing everything, called Mūlādhāra. The elephant symbolizes the seven trunks representing the seven essential bodily minerals, the saptadhātu. This is a balancing principle, not just a story for children. Ancient miracles, like cloning in Śiva's time, are beyond modern science. Gaṇeśa is the god of all Gaṇas. He is half animal and half deva. He wrote the Vedas telepathically for Vyāsa. Physical forms and statues are crucial so we do not forget; culture survives through saṃskāras. Therefore, Gaṇeśa should be remembered first in prayer. "Obey, obey, obey your Guru, then you will be successful." "One in all, all in one." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Observe the Brahmari, the humming bee, to understand vibration and creation. This small creature demonstrates the capacity to hover in stillness, a principle mirrored in technology and breath. Its energy is internal and formative. Three aspects exist: one sleeps inside, another flees, and a third stands witness to the true Brahmari. This creature builds intricate structures, sealing itself within while producing a resonant sound. That sound is a fundamental vibration, an injection of creative force. The practice involves discerning this vibration within oneself, ensuring its balance and purity. Mastery requires consistent, mindful practice of breath and attention at the heart center, not prolonged effort but precise, dedicated application. True progress depends on sincere personal effort under guidance, avoiding distraction. Purification is essential, likened to keeping a river clean amidst pollution. "This Brahmari, she is singing also. It is like an injection. It gives an injection." "If we can really, for five minutes, you will be the greatest of the great."

The essence of spiritual transmission lies in the Guru's grace and the disciple's receptivity. The sacred words and hymns originate from the enlightened masters. These teachings are preserved in extensive texts. The precise historical details are less significant than the living truth they convey. The fundamental reality is known directly through this grace. Logical analysis of form cannot grasp this essence. The path is sustained by devotion and attentive listening. "Antaḥ Mūlaṁ Guru Vākyaṁ, Śravaṇa Mūlaṁ Guru Kṛpā." "Jaha sun chetan hai, aur nazar nahī̃ ānī hai..." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Heaven on Earth manifests in this ashram with blessings from South India. Devoted guests from Jadan, Rajasthan, come from a lineage of great service. Their father, once a royal servant, now creates forests and feeds all animals freely. The mother awakens at four, performs puja, and partakes of a single meal each day. Soon the Jadan ashram will open as a sanctuary of divine peace. South India, untouched by historical invasions, houses innumerable Shiva temples. Here a temple will enshrine a sacred pearl brought from that holy region. All who visit will experience spiritual awakening. Cow shelters in the south care for cattle just as in Jadan. The steel industries in the south, employing many, are blessed and expanding to Europe. Now relax the entire body. Turn within and feel only the heart. Let go of all outer distractions. Warmth and comfort fill the heart. This silence is the divine presence. Everything is found within. “I have not planned my trip here today, but it is because of Prabhujī's āśīrvāda that I am here today and able to witness this beautiful environment, and I think it is heaven on earth.” “South India is undisturbed by the invasions that happened in India, so it is still pure, and it is a region where you can see Lord Śiva's many temples.” Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The essence of devotion is seeing God in all things, transcending material focus for pure spiritual truth. The divine principle, Deva, represents supreme purity and humility, the essence of all gurus and gods. Many seek God through external names and rituals, but true spirituality is found in the heart, in love, peace, and harmony. Life consumes life, often without awareness, while humanity walks two paths: one focused solely on the Name of God, and another justifying worldly actions. Traditional marriage ceremonies symbolize union and duty, with the husband leading to provide and protect. Modern marriages often lack this enduring commitment, contrasting with past unions built on shared sacrifice and understanding, as shown in the story of the bread. The ultimate guidance is the guru's darśana—the sight of God—which is the true wealth, not money, but the joy of spiritual connection. "People sing that Jesus said, God said... but the point is not gold, but the heart, pure spiritual spirituality." "Darśana means we see each other. We see each other also, not only humans—animals, trees, everything." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The connection between guru and disciple transcends physical distance through modern technology, which acts as a conduit for spiritual science. The true guru is not defined by external forms like robes, which symbolize one's inner path, but by the deep heart connection. Spiritual practice is about inner unity and love, not external differences. Ancient teachings, like those of Shiva, reveal a fundamental oneness beyond duality, where apparent opposites are reconciled into peace. The essence is to find the divine within, beyond all form and story. "Many, many bhaktas, they don’t know me, but they have become great." "This is the real guru."

The practice begins with a warm-up, then returns to a core rhythm. All phases are one unified process. First, move quickly, then slowly. Synchronize the group's timing. The counting sequence establishes a shared cadence. After movement, sit comfortably and relax. Begin prāṇāyāma by using fingers on the right nostril to breathe fifteen times from the left. Inhale and exhale deeply with consistent quality. After fourteen breaths, adjust and then switch nostrils for another fifteen breaths. Complete the cycle with a specific alternating breath pattern. Conclude by standing and taking a brief pause. "All phases are one unified process." "Inhale and exhale deeply with consistent quality."

Bhajan is a supreme spiritual practice, singing the divine names that unite all hearts beyond language. It brings inner peace and beauty, relaxing the body and mind. Yet, the world contains both good and negative tendencies, like violence and intoxication. All religions contain happiness, but the highest path avoids harming others. Every living creature possesses and offers peace and love. A story illustrates this: a great tree, confident in its strength, was warned by a sādhu of its coming end. It doubted any man or elephant could break it. Later, the sādhu returned to find the tree fallen, destroyed not by great force but by a small, persistent agent. Do not mistake size for security or become arrogant in power. In this age, conflict is prevalent, but our essence is divine spirit. True practice is inward. Be wary of those who claim greatness while seeking material gain. The divine encompasses all dualities. "Bhajan gives us very beautiful words: Hare, Bhagavān, Kṛṣṇa, Rāma—all of them." "Don’t think that I am okay, powerful, and that I don’t want anybody else like this." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The practice integrates breath control with heart-centered awareness. Begin with focused breathing through the left nostril for a count. Then shift attention to the heart with normal breath. Continue with breathing through the right nostril. The breath should be balanced, neither too deep nor too shallow, especially after eating. The physical posture should remain straight. Alternate between nostrils for set counts, using the hand to gently close the opposite nostril. The aim is to cultivate a steady, comfortable rhythm that warms the body and focuses the mind inward. "Inhale and exhale are one. Your breath is very nice. Sit straight." "Not very deep because we had our dinner."

The essence of practice is to realize the inner silence and oneness. All practitioners, through dedicated sādhanā, cultivate a high spiritual state within. The sacred syllable Aum represents the eternal divine, encompassing Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. Chanting "Om Śānti" invokes peace, dissolving anger and conflict. True spiritual energy is immense and relaxed, found within all. The guru principle is the unifying force, integrating all apparent diversity into one reality, just as water evaporates from the ocean to become clouds and rain. All names and forms ultimately refer to the one light. The path requires surrendering problems to the divine heart to attain harmony. "Om is God’s great Aum. So, an Aum, that Aum is eternal, eternal." "All this together is Gurudev makes again insight." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Devotional chanting connects the gathering to the guru lineage. Begin with Oṁ. Chant the holy names: Alakhpurījī Mahādeva, Śrīdeveśvara Mahādeva, Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān, Madhavānanda Holī Gurujī, Sattva Gurudeva, and Viśvagurujī Paramahaṁsa Maheśvarānanda Yogirāj. Repeat each name with Kī Jaya. Chant collectively. Sing without restraint. When tears arise, increase volume. Let emotion amplify devotion. Do not cross before cameras. Go behind the teacher. Focus on the bhajan. Sound is the medium of grace. The paramparā is a chain of blessing. Each repetition deepens connection. The lineage spans from Alakhpurī to Maheśvarānanda. All names are equal. Victory to all. The practice itself is victory. Chant without ego, distraction, or hesitation. "Oṁ Bolī Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai, Śrī Śrī Deveśvara Mahādeva Kī Jai, Viśvaguru Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara Paramahaṁsī Svāmī Maheśvarānandajī Guru Deva Kī Jai." "And if I cry, then please sing loudly.

The pilgrimage to Ālak Purī reveals the eternal spiritual path. Visits to that Himalayan site, associated with Bhagavān Śiva, bring immense happiness and divinity. The holy waters and cave there hold great power for devotees. While travel has been interrupted for years, the intention to return remains. The experience leaves a permanent mark, a touch that lasts a lifetime. This connects to the global light of yoga. In this Kali Yuga, the work is yoga, seva, and humble spirituality for all people worldwide. "In this Kali Yuga, what can we do? There is this: when we guard, yoga is yoga, seva is seva, spirituality is spirituality, working, humble." "We should remember that we are God. So it means that we are in God, and we should be in God." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Morning program from Strilky Ashram, Czech Republic. Practising Bari Khatu Pranam and pranayama.

Yoga is the seed of spiritual life, cultivated through daily practice and respect. Our existence is a continuous yoga aimed at understanding the divine. This understanding extends beyond the self to encompass all teachers and seekers. Initial efforts in the West faced resistance, with many rejecting yoga due to dietary attachments. Persistence in sharing the practice, particularly in Central Europe, gradually bore fruit. Gatherings grew from a few individuals to hundreds, including diverse seekers from various backgrounds. The core teaching emphasizes integrating spiritual discipline with respect for one's own culture and family. True progress requires consistency in practice and honoring one's roots without conflict. "Yoga in Daily Life. So, Yoga in Daily Life, and very nice still." "Respect your mother, your father, your brothers, your neighbors, and everything." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Life is pervasive and the path of sādhana requires dedicated practice. All beings consume each other; this is the nature of existence. Life is present throughout the earth, within the soil and the water. The goal is not to become like God, but to recognize the divine within. One should minimize harming other creatures. Traditional practices like bhikṣā, or asking for alms, exemplify simplicity and detachment. True practice is measured by daily discipline over years, not by sporadic effort. The Guru principle is omnipresent, guiding like a parent. External forms and seats of authority are less important than internal devotion and consistent practice. The path has challenges, but steady effort leads forward. "Jīva Jīva Bhakṣate—these jīvas are consuming each other." "Life is present throughout the whole earth."

The daily sādhanā is your foundational and constant path, containing the essence of all techniques. Begin at the Mūlādhāra Chakra, where Gaṇeśa resides as the ruler of everything. This practice is for all, regardless of life situation, but requires pure living free from harm. Consistent practice leads to the heart and brings peace, while abandoning it leads to a fall. The knowledge comes from many great sages, not from one source. A detailed book maps the centers within. The ultimate reality is the union of Śiva and Śakti. Practice this core technique once daily. "He is the Lord of all lords, present everywhere." "This knowledge is not from my book alone. It is from many ṛṣis who have composed everything." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The present moment is all we truly possess. The past is gone and the future is unknown. We often worship a future good, yet life exists only now. Even eating is an act of presence; taste exists only in the mouth before swallowing. Holding prayer beads connects us to this immediate peace. Consider the example of Buddha, who sought truth with great care. He moved slowly, harming no creature, and ate only what was given. His enlightenment under the Bodhi tree symbolizes rooted presence. A true teacher guides one to this awareness, not through mere action but through genuine spiritual principle. "The past is gone. The present is here, and what will be coming, we don’t know." "When he was going, he was very careful, not stepping on any animals or ants." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Daily practice of yoga, diet, and meditation is essential. Begin with morning exercises, adapted to age and ability. Perform standing movements, focusing on the palm, and count. Sit or stand in posture. Evening practice leads to sleep. For diet, make salad from various grasses and seeds. Break the seeds so they digest properly. Add a spoon of oil and some salt. Eat salad first, followed by a little bread, dal, vegetables, and yogurt. Control portions and eat small amounts. When hungry, take fruits. Avoid excess butter, milk, and coffee. In one month, health improves and the body becomes thinner. Practice Vajrāsana, sitting on the knees. Perform Marjari on hands and knees, arching the back. Do leg lifts lying down, without touching the ground. After one month of exercises, sit comfortably in meditation posture. "Every day we should practice." "Salad is the best. If we can take it like this from this, otherwise that other kind of salad is also not good." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A call to conscious living through prayer, diet, and daily awareness. Religious practice is declining across many faiths, leading to negative societal outcomes. People should pray sincerely according to their own traditions. Modern habits, like excessive meat consumption and poor health choices, are harmful. The rise of veganism stems from compassion, witnessing the killing of animals like a newborn calf. We must respect all life. Daily consumption and farming practices are damaging the earth and water. A simple morning practice can reorient one's life: upon waking, affirm "I am human," honor your mother and the Earth, and respect water as divine. This conscious foundation leads to a better life. "Therefore, in this way, we should—all of us here—we should pray according to your religions." "And so, everyone, they have in their heart. And everyone, they have according to their religions, and they are doing as it is." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The ashram's sanctity is preserved by its pure elements and dedicated practice. This land receives only divine water, ensuring the air, fruits, and vegetation remain uncontaminated and wholesome. It is a place for meditation, exercise, and walking among holy trees. One should visit often to partake in this purity, offer prayers, and enjoy the simple, good food. The environment is cool and refreshing, akin to the Himalayas outside of winter. A warm room is maintained for all who come to pray. Our collective work extends beyond the ashram through established councils and yoga programs, operating under United Nations principles to aid people, animals, and nature globally. This duty requires unified action, not individual effort alone. "From the other side, water comes, but water is already flowing in the other direction, so it does not enter." "The United Nations doesn’t give the money. But they gave us that we can do something." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A guided practice integrating physical posture, energetic seal, and meditative awareness. Begin standing with feet together, then apart. Execute movements with the arms and gaze to each side, synchronizing with breath. If necessary, one may sit. Kneel, placing one leg forward, fixing the gaze on a single point. Extend the arms and return slowly. Raise the hands overhead, palms pressed, then close the eyes. Sit with crossed legs. Form the gesture with thumb and index finger. Perform the specific seal twenty-one times, coordinating with the natural breath. Recite the sacred sound eleven times with eyes closed. Perceive the vibration moving from the central point upward to the crown and back to the nostrils. Become aware of the stations along this internal pathway. This is an introductory instruction for working with the subtle energy and its centers. "Perceive the normal inhalation and exhalation." "Become aware of how many stations there are on the path."

A grand ceremony is planned at the ancient Ālakpurījī temple. The temple, though once small, has grown and requires renewal. A beautiful chariot will bring a revered elder for the disciples. Many will participate in a slow procession with kalaśas and bhajans. All saṃnyāsīs are invited globally. The following day marks an anniversary connected to global peace work through the United Nations. This connection facilitates charitable action for humans, animals, and nature. Support for these universal causes is sought. "Whatever you can give, you may give. This money will go only for that purpose." "We help people, animals, and nature; we protect water and so on."

A new consciousness is dawning through veganism and spiritual unity. Ālakpurījī's presence is growing worldwide, not just in India, like a seed becoming a beautiful flower. Many are realizing the divine within without formal yoga. A global shift is occurring: young people are adopting veganism, understanding we must not torture or kill life. This marks the converging ages; Kali Yuga's darkness is receding as Satya Yuga's light rises. We must survive by choosing non-violence. The soul suffers immensely when life is taken, creating negative karma. Our time is to protect animals, showing the love we give to pets to all creatures. This creates a new world of peace. Human intelligence can achieve great good, recognizing God within all. Life is short; hold to God and help all beings. Equality is essential; the soul has no gender. The current strife over possessions is Kali Yuga's darkness. We must bring light and realize Brahman. "Now veganism has begun around the whole world. And year by year, the young people, they brought in their brain that yes, we should not kill life." "Our life is not our body, but in our soul... And that is feeling very terrible things. And with this, they die. The soul goes out very torturing." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The essence of Yoga Nidrā is a true yogic practice, not mere sleep or relaxation. Common understanding is incomplete. The real practice requires inward focus and disciplined sādhana on a single, straight path. Many practitioners are scattered, beating the sand for a snake that is not there. Animals and birds remain true to their own nature and path; humans must do the same. Do not be lured by illusory fruits into thorny bushes. Follow the guru's words directly. Choose the stick of discipline over the melting ice cream of transient pleasure. Perfect this practice by sitting with your mālā for one hour, with focused awareness. "Many people are doing yoga, meditation, and concentration all around the whole world, but only rarely will they realize." "What do you want, ice cream or the stick?... I said, with both hands, 'My stick.'"

Knowledge is a seed within, requiring daily cultivation through sacred texts and pure living. Sacred texts like the Śiva Purāṇa and Bhagavad Gītā contain immense knowledge. A small daily reading plants this seed within, which grows into understanding. This knowledge reveals our inherent unity and divinity. True practice extends beyond study into daily life. Physical cleanliness reflects inner purity. A harmonious home, where all share in cleaning and care, embodies spiritual principles. This purity is the essential Śakti, or divine energy. All beings, from ants to humans, demonstrate natural order and care. Our human duty is to live with this conscious purity in every action, seeing the divine in all. "Just one seed, a little seed. The seed is so little, and it comes little, one plot, and that comes more, big, big trees." "Clean means thinking. Thinking good for this person, they are good."

The living God is within all beings, recognized through yoga, devotion, and self-care. Yoga's spread across Europe brings divine presence through Alakhpurījī and Mahāprabhujī. Seeing Alakhpurījī unifies the seer with him. God is a living reality, not merely a historical name. The living God permeates the five elements; if one ceases, life ends. God enters human form through birth. Śiva and Śakti symbolize the male-female unity in each person. All life, from birds to trees, contains divinity. Dharma means non-violence; Jainas avoid harming any creature, walking barefoot. Prayer connects to the divine and gurus through morning-evening devotion. Physical care, like consuming calcium, sustains the body for spiritual life. Life exists everywhere, in earth, ocean, and air. Humans must know the living God directly. Devotion transcends specific names, embracing all divine forms. Self-care preserves the body as a vessel for the living God. Non-violence extends to all living beings in daily acts. Spiritual practice includes prayer for all gurus, not one. "But the difference is that we have to know the living God. And when we see the living God, then you will know my God, the living God." "Life is everywhere. And all we can have doesn’t matter on the earth, in the ocean, in the air, etc. Life, life is the life." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The practice is to realize oneself as the bliss of Ānanda. Begin by lying down and relaxing the entire body completely. Systematically feel and release each part, from the toes to the head. This state of deep relaxation and awareness is Ānanda Āsana. In this posture, one feels peaceful, joyful, and free from pain. Recognize that every cell of the body is in a state of bliss. This Ānanda is not temporary joy but your true nature as part of the divine. Carry this awareness into all activities—walking, sitting, or being with others. You are that blissful essence, like a star of light within. Conclude by slowly stretching and sitting up, maintaining the feeling of Ānanda. "Feel your whole body from the toes to the top of the head, and from the top of the head to the toes." "Each and every cell in your body is in ānanda." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

This is a call to inner awakening and universal peace. The present time demands alertness. Recent years brought negative air and events, mostly caused by humans. Humans must help each other return to a healthy, happy life. Some abandoned religion and meditation, thinking we are beyond. Humans advanced immensely in science. Sometimes they went too far in thoughts, maya, spirituality. Spiritual beings are also advanced. Some do not learn further, and it remains a picture on the wall. God exists, described in human terms. Gods’ energy is within body and soul. The body is important, nearly a god. Worship the body, inner self, brothers, sisters. Take care of all animals and forests. Look inside and hold onto what is good. People speak negatively without self-reflection; wars emerge. This is wrongness in Kali Yuga; bring humility, no war, throw weapons, offer bread and salt. Bhajans are divine light. “We should worship our body, our inner self, our brothers, our sisters. And we should take care of all animals, forests, and so on.” “Throw away the weapons of war and bring fruits, bring some food. Let us come again with everyone’s bread and salt.” Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A guided practice integrates physical postures with meditation focused on the navel center, or nābhi. Begin with physical stretches to prepare the body and mind. Raise the hands and legs, coordinating movement with breath. A teacher may demonstrate the sequence for clarity. The postures aim to create relaxation and bodily awareness. This prepares one for seated meditation. The core practice involves focusing energy at the nābhi. From this point, awareness travels upward through the chakras to the crown and then descends. This cycle completes at the navel, unifying the energy flow. The technique is a complete cycle from the navel and back. "It is going completely for us like cycling, all from our nābhi to go up to the sahasrāra, going back to the mūlādhāra, and this, and coming back." "The whole circle comes to one point, and that point is the nābhi."

The teaching reveals the path to unity and the soul’s divine joy. All humans are brothers and sisters, beyond religion, country, or language. The body is temporary; at death, it returns to dust. Money, thoughts, feelings—none accompany the soul. The soul, the ātmā, is one essence. According to actions, the soul moves to higher or lower realms. Ultimately, the soul merges with the Supreme, like a water drop returning to the ocean. That drop is tiny, yet identical in essence to the vast ocean. So one should be humble, loving, and free from anger. The true yogi knows this unity. When the heart center opens and consciousness rises to the crown, dualism ends. Stone and diamond hold equal value. Hunger and thirst bring no sorrow. Such a yogi stands firm like a mountain, unshaken by storm or rain. Inside, the ego is dead, yet the yogi lives in divine bliss. There is no emptiness; the sun of awareness rises. This is the condition of the saints. “Even a little drop of water, very fine, but that and the ocean are the same. Sooner or later, this drop will become one with the ocean.” “This yogi is living, but inside he is dead. In this emptiness, the sun was rising.” Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The practice of Sarvahitā Āsana and relaxation brings health and peace. Lie on your back and relax your whole body. Bring relaxation to each part of the head. Raise your head slightly, then place your hands above your head and stretch your toes. Bring your hands back to your sides and stretch your entire body peacefully. Rest with your back fully on the floor, hands out to the sides, legs straight. Turn your head to one side and your knees to the other; this is Sarvahitā Āsana. Breathe normally. These twists massage the stomach, benefiting digestion and relieving gas. For women expecting children, practice brings a peaceful delivery without pain. Bring your knees to your chest and hold them. Turn slowly from side to side, feeling the comfortable stretch. Roll from side to side, then sit up. Lie on your stomach for Ānanda Āsana, the bliss pose, and relax. Deepen your breath, inhaling and exhaling fully. Sit for meditation with eyes closed, using your mālā and guru mantra, feeling yourself in humility and calm. "The child will come very well, peacefully, and there will be no pain in delivering the child from the body." "Feel thyself. Try to understand. Feel. Relax. Spiritually, everything."

The sacred treasures of the Guru lineage are physical objects imbued with divine presence and grace. These items connect the disciple to the Guru and the cosmic reality. A mala bead was preserved from the Guru's samadhi. A bowl used for eating carries the Guru's touch and energy. A water vessel contains sacred water from India's rivers. Pure sand from where the Guru walked is a supreme treasure carried by the disciple. The Guru's shoes, a walking stick from his family, and his shawl were received through devotion. A bed was gifted by a family in America and restored. These objects are not mere items; they are conduits of spiritual energy and remembrance. To see or touch them invites the cosmic light. These treasures are given to all disciples for their altar and meditation. "Now I give you my treasure, my everything, the whole, in the whole universe." "Keep this in your mind, in your heart... this memory will take us to the cosmic light."

The master is the guiding principle within all existence. This guidance begins with parents and extends through teachers and saints, leading the soul toward knowledge. A separate, internal master exists from the womb, directing each unique life's path. Humans are granted superior capacity but often choose negativity, forgetting their divine origin. This forgetfulness leads to conflict and suffering, a descent away from the cosmic Self. The corrective path is humility, kindness, and non-violence, aligning with divine will. Spiritual practice, like bhajan, unites the heart in worship and harmony. One must nurture goodness within, like tending a cow for milk, and avoid spoiling it with the negativity of ego and conflict. "O human, do not kill, do not do bad things. If you love me as God, I will receive you to God." "Do not put lemon in your milk. What will make it not good? So if you think, 'I am,' and then you put something onto others, then you have spoiled everything." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The practice of yoga and light sustains us on the spiritual path. I traveled extensively during a clear period, witnessing the strength of practitioners who remained healthy despite widespread illness. The specific practice of Brahmari Prāṇāyāma has been crucial for health. I taught its techniques, which involve balancing vibration between the brain's hemispheres and directing it to the center of the head. This practice is powerful but must be learned precisely for at least one year before teaching others, performed only five times per session. Our path is one of many, all leading to the same goal, connected through the navel as a source. We must continue our daily sādhanā. Furthermore, we should observe prayers at sunrise and sunset, aligning with the light's cycle as illustrated by the story of a man seeing a temple light at dusk. "Many, many people who practiced exactly what I told you—this Brahmari Prāṇāyāma—were very healthy and good." "At least one year you should learn this exactly, and then give it further. Otherwise, you will make others, maybe not good, it will be in the body." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga in Daily Life integrates physical, mental, and spiritual practices for holistic health. The body, breath, and mind harmonize through dynamic sequences like Bārikāṭu Praṇām. This exercise continuously alternates between spinal activation and relaxation. Vajrāsana establishes natural spinal alignment. Inhalation reduces thoracic kyphosis and strengthens interscapular muscles. Śaśāṅkāsana directs breath into the lumbar spine, deeply relaxing it. Such movements increase spinal flexibility and concentration. The practice is infused with devotion to the spiritual lineage. A vegetarian diet is shown to reduce disease severity. Asanas are conscious movements connected with breath, training the brain. Pranayama improves heart-lung function, oxygenation, and memory. Nasal breathing with awareness enhances mindfulness and memory encoding. Meditation reduces stress and depression, boosting immunity. Self-inquiry meditation alleviates depressive symptoms. Scientific studies show that high spiritual well-being slows brain atrophy. This protection occurs in regions responsible for self-awareness, empathy, and memory. Brahmari effectively reduces anxiety and improves concentration. "What is happening now is a test for us, in a way. It’s a test of our discipline and a test of our humbleness for humankind." "Yoga is not just some kind of exercise, but it is a conscious exercise connected with breathing." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga practice supports health and has spread globally. The community largely remained well, though some with prior conditions needed care. Illness returned partly due to neglecting precautions. Many worldwide adopt yoga and renounce harmful habits. Practice in India exists but depth varies, with strong centers and broader adoption abroad. The Indian government now promotes yoga widely. "During the COVID times, yoga has really helped us in developing our immune system." "India has given this knowledge of yoga to the world." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga originates from Śiva and is beyond mere exercise. Śiva manifested the postures by observing all creation, including animals and elements. He provided 84 key postures for health and happiness. The entire cosmos, including the sun and moon, is an expression of Śiva's energy. Śiva is not a physical form but the universal principle, with thousands of names venerating this truth. The ages cycle, and we are in Kali Yuga. Human life is a precious opportunity to cultivate peace and harmony through right living. A story illustrates devotion: Viṣṇu sought blessings by offering a thousand flowers to Śiva in prolonged worship. True yoga is the union with the divine principle within. Practice meditation, maintain good health, and extend goodwill to all beings. Live with spiritual discipline, for life is fleeting. Do not reduce yoga to simple exercise; it is the path to realizing Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva within. "Yoga comes from Śiva. Śiva brought sitting in the postures, and he was feeling very great." "Śiva is not only a physical body. We can’t see, and we can see, and we are different." Filming location: Martin, Slovakia

The eternal divine tradition and the living God within all existence are present now. Our lineage originates from the primordial consciousness, Śiva, manifesting through the elements across countless ages. Time cycles through Yugas, and now we are in Kali Yuga. Many have lost connection, denying the divine because they seek God only externally. Yet God is not a separate entity to be found elsewhere. Divinity is the living essence within all creation—water, earth, air, fire, and every being. The body perishes, but the soul, the ātmā, is eternal and divine. We are like individual drops from a vast ocean; the drop and the ocean are the same living water. Do not claim only one God or one religion. All life is sacred. You are God. Therefore, care for this body, the vehicle for your divine journey. Practice discipline in food and action. Perform Sarvahitāsana to cleanse and energize the body. Through such practice and awareness, recognize the divine light within yourself and all existence. "God is here, but we say, 'Do we not have?' And not only you, in yourself, there are many, many lives, God’s cells." "What dies is our body, but our ātmā, our soul, our life inside, will never die." Filming location: Levocha, Slovakia

Life originates from divine consciousness and manifests through all beings. Existence emerged from emptiness, with the principle of Śiva giving rise to the elements and all life forms. The attraction between male and female energies sustains creation. Humans have evolved with intellect, developing science, yet our physical life is temporary like a flame. True essence is the eternal life force, or jīva, present in all creatures, identical in an ant and an elephant. This indivisible consciousness is like a drop merging into the ocean. We exist in Kali Yuga, a challenging age. Modern ailments like cancer arise from consuming chemicals and non-organic foods, which harm the body and earth. Health requires personal discipline: practice yoga daily, fast on Mondays and Fridays, eat primarily organic vegetables and grains, and avoid excess meat, alcohol, and overeating. Keep the navel area healthy. Simple daily techniques, like focused breathing and sound vibration through the spine, purify and maintain well-being. Respect both medical science and yogic science for a balanced life. "From that emptiness, different kinds of elements were created: the sky and light." "Your physical body is bigger, but the tiny one and the bigger one are the same."

The core of spiritual practice is to cultivate inner joy and steady discipline. The world reflects our inner state; living in fear creates a personal hell, while inner joy radiates outward like the sun. Spiritual life should be beautiful and full of joy, not suffering. Practice is not about dramatic change but gentle, consistent growth, like grass. The key is to feel good within, which naturally leads to goodness. Fear is an animal quality; freedom from it is the first step. Real practice is tested in daily life, not just at seminars. A relaxed, joyful approach is essential for progress. Love your practice to reach the goal. "If your material life is not going well, your spiritual life should be beautiful." "Try to make a nice, smiling face... and try to feel your inner self. You will feel expansion." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A physical practice prepares the body and breath for meditation. Assume a stable seated posture, leaning forward with a straight spine to avoid knee pain. Keep the elbows straight and shoulders slightly raised to deepen the forward bend. Breathe naturally without holding, inhaling through the nostrils and exhaling through the mouth. Maintain a relaxed body with eyes closed, observing the breath internally. This prāṇāyāma is a spiritual sādhanā for awakening inner powers. Synchronize movement with breath, repeating cycles such as twenty-seven times, and conclude by sitting in relaxed meditation. "Within yourself, not outside, is your breath." "This sādhanā, this practice, this prāṇāyāma, it’s very spiritual and very different."

A sāttvic lifestyle and spiritual practice confer protection and reveal inner potential. During global restrictions, practitioners maintained vegetarian diets, avoided alcohol, and engaged in spiritual practice. Inquiries across many countries revealed a very low incidence of serious illness, attributed to this sāttvic living. The vibration of sacred hymns, or bhajans, transmitted benefit even without intellectual understanding of the words. This points to the hidden powers within humans, such as the chakras and kuṇḍalinī described in ancient knowledge. These inner energies are mapped within the very structure of ancient scripts like Devanāgarī. Cultivating these powers requires purity in action, speech, and diet, aligning oneself against the accumulating dust of negativity in the world. "From our group, about one to two percent of people got the coronavirus. They were affected a little, but they did not die." "Even if they do not understand the words, the vibration of those words... it comes to us through our practice." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
