We practice āsanas to bring awareness to each chakra from Mūlādhāra to Sahasrāra. Begin by standing and feeling the Mūlādhāra area. Āsanas activate chakras like a reflex point, not the organ itself. Perform Maṇḍūkāsana, focusing on the perineum and practicing Aśvinī Mudrā by contracting and relaxing. Abdominal breathing here also engages Svādhiṣṭhāna. Feel a warm sensation in the pelvis. Practice grinding and rolling movements to engage Maṇipūra and feel warmth at the navel. Rolling includes head movement, affecting the Viśuddhi chakra and thyroid. Each chakra connects to the physical body, prāṇa, and states of mind. For Ājñā, practice Ākarandanurāsana by focusing on the thumbnail like Trāṭak, maintaining single-point concentration. For Sahasrāra and overall focus, practice Ekapāda Praṇāmāsana, balancing on one leg with hands at the heart center, focusing on a point and then visualizing it internally. Conclude by observing the effects in the body. "Āsanas influence and activate a point in our body connected to a cakra." "If we are concentrated on one point, we will remain without movement."

The path requires strict dietary purity to achieve divine union. Impure food breaks spiritual progress and creates obstacles. A family must be united in this purity, especially when raising children, to become a whole pure unit. Lapses can lead to karmic consequences in future lives. One must remain strong in personal discipline even when surrounded by those who do not follow it. True aspirants and sādhus embody this complete purity. Internal cleansing of the chakras is essential, leading to the union of will within. The ultimate reality is the divine union of male and female principles, Śiva and Śakti, from which all creation emerges. This truth must be made clear and displayed for all to understand. "I cannot give Him to you; I can only help you." "It is said that when it is taken, like this side, meat and this and that, then it will give you back again in another life."

The path of purity is cultivated through disciplined living and devotion. Many consume all things without restraint, but such actions bear fruit. When advised against this, some resist. Adopting a purer way, such as refraining from certain foods, can inspire others through example. This discipline is a foundation. Spiritual ascent is likened to water: it rises pure, falls, and circulates. The human form is a precious opportunity. In relationships, devoted practice, like a wife's morning pūjā for her husband, creates a shared spiritual current. The body and life are temporary, but consciousness can merge with the pure, eternal source. Medical knowledge has limits, and actions that harm life contradict purity. The essence is to live so that consciousness rises, not descends into further entanglement. "Look, I will prepare my food and give you some too, you can eat, but I do not offer meat." "Please, I am... you will clean me, I am yours." Filming location: Rijeka, Croatia

Respect all beings and uphold Dharma by avoiding harm, especially to animals. The path requires purity in action, thought, and the handling of resources meant for others. Greed and selfishness lead to loss, as illustrated by the dog who, seeing a reflection, dropped its own bread to chase another. All actions have consequences; handling others' resources carries immense karmic responsibility. A story tells of a cook who consumed donated ghee meant for all and bore the full karma of a skin disease. Another story reveals that managing an ashram's funds can be a severe karmic burden, not a blessing. The inner witness always sees our actions, and what we do to others returns to us. True spirituality sees the one in all and all in one, making harm to any being impossible. "If you would have spread this ghee into the meal for everybody, then everybody would get a little pimple on the face. But now all that karma came to you." "I would like for that person in his next life to be the manager of the ashram... I was the ashram manager in my past life." Filming location: Split, Croatia

The oneness of all life is realized through yogic practice. All humans are one, regardless of origin. The first humans emerged alongside divine consciousness. All beings are manifestations of the one God. Consider the ocean and a single drop; the drop is the ocean, yet fears merging. The five elements compose this body. Life is present within everything. The breath flows through the nostrils, connected to the legs and brain hemispheres. This natural control has been lost. Humans have descended, becoming like other creatures. God has given humanity this opportunity for parity. The yogic life is distinct. Do not judge beauty or status. At birth the hand grasps; at death it is open. Everything is yoga. In this age, consumption of chemicals and meat brings disease. The life force is real, inherited from parents. We must turn toward the cosmic Self. Practice involves breath and the subtle channels. Words and actions create positive or negative consequences. Upon death, all religions converge at one point. Prayers are essential. Suffering is inherent. Perform good deeds. The soul is affected by karma. Practice these techniques for health and realization. "All of you are God. We are all God." "At the time of birth, our fist was like this. When we die, what will we take? Nothing." Filming location: Split, Croatia

The guru holds primacy over God, as shown through Abhimanyu's ordeal. A boy sought a guru for spiritual life. The guru tested him by sending him with cows without food. He drank milk, which was forbidden. He ate foam from calves, which was scolded. He took fresh leaves, which was rebuked. He ate only dry leaves. During rain, water escaped from the reservoir. The guru ordered it dammed. Other disciples refused out of tiredness. The boy offered and lay in the breach to stop the water. Later, he became blind from eating dead leaves. He fell into a dry well while following cows. The guru found him. The boy asked if the cows had come home. God appeared in the well. The boy bowed to the guru first, recognizing the guru as the path. "Abhimanyu, I am God." "Yes, Gurudev, but without your giving it, I will not eat." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

The essence of a yogic life integrates body, breath, and mindful living. Care for the body through exercise and yoga; neglect brings illness and suffering. Movement is vital, but excess is harmful. Practice moderation. Breath work and meditation nourish the lungs and system. Diet is crucial; consuming meat introduces impurities and disease. Familial ailments can be addressed through lifelong prāṇāyāma. Simple yogic techniques, like using water on the face and nostrils, awaken the body's cells and promote health. The goal is a long, happy life. Householders who work and maintain stable families are great yogīs, providing essential support. Spiritual practice is for everyone, not just ascetics. True yoga brings health, peace, and understanding. "Movement is very important. Meditation, breath exercises—what we call playing with the breath—are vital." "Either do not have children, or if you do, the children should have one father and mother in oneness." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

The journey is a return to oneness, like a bird that flies far but returns to its nest each evening. You travel, yet the essential self is not confined by location. The true self, the ātmā, is singular and vast, connecting all beings and even reaching the stars. We are here to meet in love and peace, recognizing our shared essence beyond temporary physical forms. A separate sense of self creates fear and suffering. Realize your true nature as the unified ātmā, which is the greatest power. Practice Aśvinī Mudrā to release fear and negativity, contracting and relaxing to generate inner energy and stability. This sādhanā integrates what is separated. "One in all and all in one." "Ātmā is the tiger; all become tigers."

The many paths of yoga converge like rivers into one ocean. Respect all ways of practice. The science of yoga is vast, yet we must understand our own body. The navel, or Nābhi, is the root. A problem there affects the whole system. To progress, one must bring the body under control through proper diet and awareness. Overweight individuals should eat lightly, focusing on salads and seeds, to achieve balance over time. Practice feeling the movement and vibration at the navel. This awareness is the foundation for meditation and self-knowledge. True practice begins from this root, balancing the physical to access deeper states. The sound of OM originates from the navel, rising through the channels to the crown. Balance in the body leads to balance in consciousness. "Yoga is yoga, but which kind of yoga? It is like this gathering: some have come from the East, some from the West, and all who have come via different paths have seen many different things." "The navel is the root. Everything is there. When there is a problem with the navel, the whole body will die." Filming location: Rijeka, Croatia

Karma Yoga is the supreme practice, integrating spiritual awareness into every daily action. To be human is the primary yoga. Upon waking, one acknowledges being human and steps onto Mother Earth with reverence. Touching water releases tension and connects one to the father element. Opening windows welcomes the air. Life is interaction with family, animals, and tasks, all done with conscious love. True wealth is internal, residing in the heart and mind, impossible to steal. God is not an external entity to be found in forests or mountains. God resides within each person. Therefore, one who knows they are God within will cause no harm. Life is a step-by-step practice, including asana, pranayama, and meditation. The divine essence is singular and present in all, like individual drops containing the whole ocean. Practice should be consistent and gradual, like a child growing day by day. The Vajranadi is the central power channel, sustaining life from conception to death. Practice Brahmari pranayama to balance the brain's hemispheres, creating a harmonious vibration for meditation. Yoga is a lifelong journey of silent, peaceful, and joyful practice. "Look within thyself, that is God." "True wealth is not money. Anyone can take away our money, but in our brain and in our heart, that money which we have, no one can take away."

The living guru and true path are found within an authentic lineage, not through blind faith or exploitation. Modern science connects us physically, but only genuine spiritual transmission guides the soul beyond death. Many teachers and paths exist, each like a mother to her child, yet the root parampara is essential. Discernment is required, as some promise false powers or exploit faith with rituals. True practice involves a pure lifestyle and steady discipline, not mere claims. The breath's exhalation represents the enduring power; life continues beyond this body. "Next to God is the doctor." "Exhalation is forever." Filming location: Rijeka, Croatia

The essential need is for the living grace and vision of the teacher. All spiritual practice is dry without the guru's darśan and mercy. The ultimate goal is to internalize this vision so it is present whenever the eyes are closed. True darśan is the feeling awakened in the heart in a sacred place, not merely a physical sight. This gathering after a difficult period is a profound blessing. The dedicated work of many has prepared this new space, which is an invitation for all to come, work, and build together in nature and peace. The current age presents challenges, but within them lies opportunity for those who follow the guru's word with faith and selfless effort. "All of our sādhanā, everything that we do in our lives, is dry without Gurudev’s darśan and Gurudev’s mercy." "So many lives, thousands of lives, you have dedicated to yourself. Decide to dedicate one to me." Filming location: Karlovac, Croatia

The first international satsaṅg gathers here. This place was found swiftly after the instruction to establish a center. It is now filled with light, destined to become a temple and a beacon. The duty is to preserve and spread this light. All present are at home, not guests. This extends to everyone connected. Yoga is one, yet many masters and paths exist. All are to be respected in this age of unity. Every teacher is a guru imparting worldly knowledge. The spiritual guru reveals the inner oneness where souls merge. All beings contain the same divine light, moving toward the same ultimate door. The soul constantly seeks liberation from the body. Purity is the first step. Avoid negativity about other paths. Cultivate health through practice, prāṇāyāma, and pure environments, relinquishing harmful habits. "Everyone who is teaching us is our guru." "My ātmā and your ātmā become one."

The divine manifests as unity within diversity, and our spiritual institutions are beacons in the world. We established this new ashram in Croatia swiftly after a wish was expressed, demonstrating how life unfolds when we release doubt. This place, named for a great master, serves as a sanctuary. All authentic spiritual centers worldwide are vital, like many children bringing joy and development to a single village. There is one God with two aspects: the manifest principle appearing through the ages and the formless absolute. This unity is reflected in the duality of Śiva and Śakti within us. All forms arise from a pure source, like water evaporating from the ocean and returning as rain. Heredity shows how qualities are transmitted, yet we all share a common human essence. We encounter many teachers in life, from parents to instructors, all guiding us. True spiritual masters awaken knowledge from within. All paths ultimately lead to the same divine unity, just as a fallen leaf eventually returns to nourish its roots through nature's cycle. "Āśrams and mandirs are like beacons in the turmoil, the ocean of saṃsāra." "There is one God. God is one, and God is God." Filming location: Karlovac, Croatia

The heart seeks oneness with the divine through devotion. The hands and their lines reveal individual destiny and spiritual energy. Each fingerprint is unique, just as every leaf on a tree shares a design but is distinct. The lines on the palm indicate one's path and fortune, known as kismet, which cannot be stolen. The fingers hold symbolic power, with three representing divine aspects. Energy flows through the body's nadis, and practices like pranayama purify them. Proper nourishment and postures like Sarvahitasana strengthen the vital Vajra Nadi, which energizes the entire system. "Everything can be taken away from you... But they cannot take away the kismet." "Look in your palm. This lion’s wish is in our palm." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Yoga is an eternal light of consciousness within all. This knowledge was transmitted through a lineage from the Himalayas. The system called Yoga in Daily Life emphasizes simplicity for everyday application. It arrived in this region decades ago, beginning with seminars that expanded across cities. Centers now operate in several locations, integrating into community life through university courses, public programs, and humanitarian actions. The practice is dedicated to peace, marked by multi-religious prayers and the planting of trees as symbols. It is a system for all, aiming for holistic health accessible in any setting. "The light of yoga and Sanātana Dharma settled here thirty-five years ago, and since then, it has never ceased to shine." "Yoga is actually an evolution of our consciousness toward the light."

The human journey is governed by the five sheaths and the balancing principles of sun and moon. A person should be like a tree, giving shade and fruit to all. The special feature is the living Master, present for everyone. Life involves 8.4 million creatures, with humans possessing higher intelligence for discerning good. The restless mind is governed by the moon's principle, connected to water and movement, while the stable sun resides within the heart. One must balance these energies, particularly through left nostril breathing. The soul descends through stages to eventually inhabit a human form. The purpose is to progress through the five sheaths: the physical body, the energy body, the mental sheath, the sheath of knowledge, and finally bliss. All problems originate in the uncontrolled mind. The primary duty is to care for the physical vessel so the soul may progress. Control the mind and all problems are resolved. "O human, control the mind." "Your mind will always go to something. Where is your mind?" Filming location: Samobor, Croatia

Faith and single-pointed focus are essential on the spiritual path. Without trust, all practices are futile, like abandoning your own car for another. Disciples must hold to their given mantra with confidence; otherwise, they will be cheated and remain restless. Many are distracted by other masters offering miracles or false promises, revealing a lack of self-faith. Everything needed is within; one must develop in the spiritual womb. Do not seek temporary comforts or jump between paths. Concentrate on one practice to gain everything; chasing many leads leads to loss. The ten senses must be understood and controlled through yoga. Stay faithful to your one path, practice humbly, and do not be concerned with external signs like astrology. Do good and help others. "Ek sajye sab sajye, try one, you will get all. And when you try to get for all, you will get all." "Do good, get good; do bad, get bad. That is it." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

The spiritual path requires navigating life's currents with devotion and focused effort. The Guru is the ferry to cross the ocean of existence. Sādhanā is the river with calm and turbulent waves that must be navigated. Ego causes the ferry to sink unnoticed. Yoga is the work on oneself; from nothing comes nothing without practice. The aim is Ānanda, endless happiness. One must build a bridge across the river of suffering, brick by brick, life by life, to reach the shore of liberation. Satsaṅg is the gathering in truth, a nourishing cup of milk. A single negative word can spoil it, like a drop of lemon curdles milk. In Kali Yuga, gold and ego become crowns that rule, causing conflict. Surrender to the divine, but do not become a slave to gold or ego. True friendship in spirituality supports the aim, unlike the fox that repeatedly endangers the humble camel. Focus on your spiritual aim day and night. "The name of the Gurudeva is the Ferry. Those who sit in it will cross the ocean and reach the shore." "Yoga is the work on yourself. Remember this. It is the essence of the essence of the essence." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

The guru serves as the essential navigator on the inner pilgrimage, and steadfast devotion to the path ensures reaching the goal. Yoga is a lifelong journey; cosmic consciousness may not be attained in one life. The path is like a walk to Rijeka—one continues step by step, resting but staying on the path. Guru Paramparā, the lineage of masters, guides reliably. Without such a navigator, one wanders lost across different directions. A blind man's technique fails when he removes his hand from the wall at the critical moment, missing the door. Similarly, practitioners may abandon the guru just before liberation, thinking they can proceed alone. Āsanas and prāṇāyāmas maintain one on the path, but the lineage leads onward. The soul's origin traces to Satya Yuga, a nest from which it came and to which it returns. Regardless of birthplace, the inner Ātmā seeks its true home. The guru, though not physically present, observes all; the Supreme's vision encompasses the entire universe. The five kośas dissolve at death, but the Ātmā must be realized. The supreme state is absolute solitude; therefore, it is better to live a compassionate human life. Negative karma, such as harming animals, returns as disease. The true guru is within, preparing the soul like a bird brooding an egg. Mantra repetition, especially "Śrī Guru Ātmā," and chakra-focused Oṁ chanting deepen the resonance and unite the kośas. "The master, the guru, is that navigator—only in this life, only on this path." "Guru means light. Guru means knowledge. Guru means happiness. Guru means clarity. Guru is thyself, but someone must open that treasure." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

Yoga is life, encompassing all beings. The human form is a rare gift with a special duty. God grants freedom, but actions carry consequences: good deeds lead to the divine, and bad deeds lead to suffering. The five sheaths, or kośas, constitute our being. The physical body, Annamaya Kośa, depends on pure nourishment. The energy body, Prāṇamaya Kośa, is vitalized by this food. The mental body, Manomaya Kośa, must be controlled to avoid suffering, as illustrated by the disciple who became a crow. The intellectual sheath, Vijñānamaya Kośa, should be used wisely, not for destruction. The bliss sheath, Ānandamaya Kośa, leads toward liberation. Practice is essential; Self-realization is a gradual gift. A guide is necessary in all aspects of life. The technique of Kriyā Yoga uses sound vibration from the navel to purify these layers. Daily practice is the path. "One in all and all in one. We are all one life." "Yoga is not only this physical body... health is not everything, but everything is nothing without health."

The subject is satsaṅg, the true company that guides us from darkness to light. The first education comes from the mother, then from both parents, as taught in the Upaniṣads. Modern education often fails the youth, who lack direction. Children lose the lap of their parents to kindergartens and toys, which cannot provide true education. This leads to patan, or destruction, seen in drug use and disrespect. Utthān, or development, comes from humility and spirituality. We must distinguish between satsaṅg (good society) and kusaṅg (bad society). Many modern diseases stem from junk food and swallowed emotional problems like fear and anxiety, which affect specific organs. Yoga is a science for health, not sport. We all come from the Sun, and the soul is on an eternal journey dictated by destiny. Practice chanting "Aum" to channel solar energy from the navel through the chakras to heal and awaken the brain. "Sat means the truth, and saṅg means to be together. In good company, with good friends, we learn good things." "Hope is the walking stick from the cradle to the grave."

Prāṇāyāma consists of three actions: inhalation, exhalation, and retention. These form the core of breath control. The practice serves to purify and strengthen the lungs, enabling longer breath retention. Different techniques like Bhastrikā or Ujjāyī apply these three actions for specific purposes. The ultimate aim of sādhanā is to purify the inner instrument, the Antakaraṇa. External service is secondary to inner purity. Masters in the causal body perceive only this purity. One must avoid the pitfalls of spiritual power. Using siddhi or teaching techniques without mastery leads to a fall. Remain steadfast in one tradition; do not mix paths or compare masters. The river may curve, but the essence flows onward. "Only your purity matters." "You should become a Siddha but not use the siddhi."

The human body is a precious instrument for spiritual science. Our physical existence is temporary, yet we must care for this vehicle. Knowledge is infinite, as illustrated by the sage who studied the Vedas for ages but had learned only a handful of dust compared to the entire mountain. All beings experience pain, and causing suffering is a sin. Modern diseases correlate with consumption of afflicted animals. Humans are free to choose their nourishment and their spiritual direction. The science of yoga is encoded within the body, particularly in the resonance of the chakras represented by Sanskrit letters. This vibration harmonizes our five bodies. A practical technique uses the sound "A" to generate solar energy from the navel, promoting healing and vitality. This sound vibration, when practiced correctly, can alleviate depression and improve memory by enhancing circulation in the brain. "Whoever comes will go." "What you have learned until now is only as much as this dust in your hands." Filming locations: Rijeka, Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, Croatia.

The universe arises from a singular, limitless consciousness. From its vibration, light manifests, followed by creation and duality. Humans are gifted with intellect to discern divine qualities from negative ones. True human nature is compassion, mercy, and love. Education begins with parents, imparting spiritual and ethical knowledge now often lost. Yoga is the science to unite the individual soul with the Supreme. The soul carries karma from all actions. To cleanse karma and attain a long, healthy life, follow Ayurveda and a sattvic, vegetarian diet. This is non-violence, the highest principle. Discipline in practice is essential. Yoga balances and harmonizes, leading to spiritual awakening. "One gram of practice is worth more than a ton of theory." "Non-violence is the highest principle. If you follow Ahimsa, your spirituality will grow." Filming location: Croatia

The divine light of Bharat and Sanatana Dharma is the eternal truth. Bharat is the cradle of culture and spirituality, acknowledged as the motherland, Bhārat Mātā. It is the sacred center where divine incarnations manifest. Every atom of its soil carries divine energy. Sanatana Dharma is not a religion but the eternal principle of existence, the universal consciousness within all. It is the one Supreme Father in all. People are divine incarnations, yet a curtain of ignorance obscures this truth. This ignorance is removed through yoga and Āyurveda. Yoga is the union of the individual soul with the cosmic soul, supported by practices for health. Āyurveda is the ancient medical science that heals without side effects. Together, they are the two wings to fly to liberation. One must practice diligently and seek expert guidance. Do not be misled by superficial habits; recognize your divine nature. "Within you is an ocean of immortality. Within you is the fountain of joy, and within you is the immortal soul." "Yoga is called union: Jīvātmā to Paramātmā—the individual soul merges into the cosmic soul."

A journey within begins by relaxing the body and observing the breath. Contemplate the five elements within. Space exists inside and outside; feel at ease within it. Air, or prāṇa, purifies the body and can remove illness with concentrated will. Inner fire, or agni, balances temperature and burns away toxins. The water element flows through tissues, supplying minerals and expelling impurities. The earth element, the bones, provides a frame. These elements within can become polluted by the external world. Purify them through sāttvic food, yoga postures, prāṇāyāma, and meditation. Body awareness is life awareness; health depends on clean, balanced elements. Bring awareness to any area of pain or illness. Direct breath and the elements—air, fire, space, water—to that area to balance and heal. This self-inquiry meditation can be done seated. Many bodily problems stem from personal mistakes like wrong diet or substances, but they can be repaired through yoga, meditation, and a balanced diet. Make a resolve to heal the body and mind through these elements and practices. Love and protect nature. Decide for a healthy, strong body and a long life. "Body awareness means life awareness. The body is here, you are here." "Strive to purify with sāttvic food... Pure quality gives more quality to your life." Filming location: Rijeka, Croatia

Yoga and Āyurveda are two wings for the soul's flight. This is a lifelong work of discipline. The first happiness is a healthy body, called niroga. A healthy family is the foundation; parents must remain together with children for harmony. Husband and wife require mutual understanding. Obedient children learn from parents who do not quarrel. Good neighbors are the fifth happiness. The sixth is having a milking animal and a kitchen garden. Āyurveda teaches that every plant has value, as shown in the story of Charaka. Discipline is essential: for medicine like chyavanprāś, follow strict dietary rules. Yoga begins with discipline; Āyurveda medicine begins with discipline. The cause of disease is eating constantly, which disrupts the digestive fire, Jāṭharāgni. Seek advice only from a trained Āyurvedic doctor who understands pulse diagnosis. These sciences make us healthy, grant long life, and aid spiritual achievement. The soul departs with speed, guided only by karma and spirituality. "The first happiness is a healthy body." "Yoga and Āyurveda will make us very healthy, happy, and give us a long life and spiritual achievement." Filming location: Rijeka, Croatia

Yoga and Āyurveda are the sole foundation. All action—physical, mental, emotional—is karma. Kali Yuga is the age of karma yoga. Everyone is employed or searching for work. Work is slavery to money. Karma determines the resulting fruit. Skill in action brings yoga’s success. Yoga means union of the individual soul with the Supreme. The fire of yoga burns all karma. Positive karma leads to liberation. Nonviolence builds a free, peaceful society. The only hope in Kali Yuga is the name of God. Mantra repetition frees one from Kali Yuga’s prison. Gold symbolizes this bondage to money. Āyurveda prolongs life to realize yoga. It purifies without side effects. Heaven is temporary; the true goal is Brahmaloka. “Yogaḥ karmasu kauśalam.” “Kali Yuga kevala nāmādhāra.” Filming location: Rijeka, Croatia

Chin Mudrā meditation unites individual soul with Supreme and moves beyond the three guṇas. Sit in Sukhāsana or Padmāsana with back straight, thumb and index finger gently touching. The index finger and thumb joining signify Paramātmā and jīvātmā in oneness. Three other fingers represent sāttvic, rājasic, and tāmasic guṇas, which are obstacles. Spiritual development begins only after mastering these three guṇas. Without this mastery, practices are mere enjoyment without substance. The mudrā connects nerve points, signaling the brain to relax and balance emotions. It calms anxiety, restlessness, and depression while developing concentration. Energy recharges when fingers gently move, creating a sensation of electricity throughout the body. Hands palm-up intensify energy reception; hands on thighs create regenerative feedback. Energy flows when body is upright and comfortable; slouching disconnects the flow. The navel is the center from which energy and sound originate. Sound stages include parā at the navel, paśyantī at the throat, and vaikharī at tongue and lips. Unuttered resonance touches the heart, distributes through the body, and finally projects outward. With Chin Mudrā placed under the thighs, close eyes and relax all muscles from shoulders to eyebrows. Inhale deeply, feel abdomen expand, and envision chanting Oṃ to expand self into infinity. Chant Oṃ three times, feeling each cell resonate, then place hands on the face and open the eyes. “Triguṇarahitaṃ satguruṃ taṃ namāmi yaṃ.” “If there is petrol, the car will run.

Yoga is the science for achieving health and peace through the balance of body, mind, and soul. The universe originated from Śiva, the self-manifesting source of all resonance and light, who bestowed the principles of creation and sustenance upon Brahmā and Viṣṇu. True yoga is an ancient practice from India, a land of holy vibration, and is not a competitive exercise but a personal worship that harmonizes the individual with the universal consciousness. Modern commercial variations like wine yoga distort this essence. Authentic practice, performed step-by-step without force, burns away impurities and fosters good health, which leads to good thoughts and ultimately world peace. The core of all religion is humanity, seeing the divine in everyone. "Yoga practice is balancing, harmonizing, and keeping health. The practice of āsanas is not a competition." "Yoga gives us good health, and good health brings good thoughts, and good thoughts make a good society, and a good society brings peace in the world." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

Family harmony and spiritual practice are the foundation of a meaningful life. True family provides support in both joy and sorrow. Modern life scatters families across the globe, weakening these essential bonds. The purpose of life is not found in quarreling, gossiping, or struggling for money. Time is precious and must be used for spiritual progress, not merely for material accumulation. Inner strength, or ātmabala, arises from the Self and eliminates anger and jealousy, which stem from weakness and ignorance. Spiritual practice within the satsaṅg, the community, is the most powerful path. It unites individuals like fingers forming a fist, creating collective strength for the journey toward self-realization. "God did not give you time just to work, to run here and there to earn money." "One who has ātmabala does not feel offended." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

The divine resonance is the manifestation of God, from which all creation arises. This universe is endless, with a horizon that recedes as one approaches. The center of this universe is mirrored in the human body, beginning at the navel where the individual soul enters. Life develops from this point, as described in sacred texts. The science of the body is understood through authentic practice, not mere physical competition. True power arises from mental will and spiritual discipline, surpassing physical strength. The cycle of birth and death continues until self-realization is achieved, merging the individual with the infinite. World peace requires leaders to practice tolerance and recognize our shared humanity. "World peace is possible only when all religious and political leaders of this globe practice tolerance, recognition, and respect for all other cultures, traditions, languages, races, nationalities, and religions." "The soul has got this consciousness, awareness, feelings, etc., but no physical body. Now this soul is fluttering on the waves of time around the whole universe." Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

The Spiritual Path consists of family harmony, selfless duty, and inner peace. The Supreme alone is truth, and the world is a fleeting dream. Life is a journey, not a destination, though the destination is reached at life’s end. Stay on your path and practice your mantras; all problems resolve automatically. Dharma requires selfless support of parents, children, and neighbors. Selfish dharma leads only to temporary gain, like repeated divorces. Clarify misunderstandings with family; be a yes‑man and make them happy. Modern life creates division: babysitters replace parents, kindergartens sow lifelong fear, and both parents working disrupts love. Children need the presence of a parent and introduction to relatives to protect society and roots. Good and bad actions return as karma. One who acts against humanity will not be reborn as human. Hold the truth and worship God; in this existence, no one is truly yours. The Śrī Svāmī Mādhavānanda World Peace Council works for non‑violence through yoga. Establish an International Day of Brother and Sister to safeguard bonds. Theory is worthless without practice; do good, avoid negative deeds. Animals possess intelligence and can even outwit humans. Natural remedies like garlic, lemon, and ginger heal the body. “Brahma Satya, Jagat Mithyā—the Supreme, only the One, is the Truth, and this world is just a dream, it’s flowing.” “Sāc pakad bhajasai—hold the truth, and adore or worship God. In this world no one is ours; in this saṃsāra, no one is ours.” Filming location: Zagreb, Croatia

Humanitarian actions and spiritual practice both multiply effects. One truckload of stone worth one hundred thousand rupees sustains roughly five hundred people through interconnected livelihoods. The same supply chain principle applies to negative acts like arming conflicts. Every good or bad deed records in the account of Dharmarāja. The first fruits of karma go to the initiator. Spiritual sādhanā purifies the inner self. Dharma, artha, kāma, and mokṣa arise from practice. Guru’s grace is eternal. Guru bhakti brings success in all fields. Losing guru bhakti is a real loss. The guru principle never dies. Only ego claims independent doing. A dog thought he carried the whole load alone, then realized another force pulled. A master repeatedly saved a scorpion despite being stung. He declared stinging is the scorpion’s nature and saving is the master’s. Selfless service yields more fruit than idle meditation. Helping hands are more valuable than folded hands. Planting a tree shelters thousands of creatures. Yogesh’s humanitarian work sustains at least twenty thousand families. "It is his nature to sting. He cannot give up his nature. And my nature is to save life." "Helping hands have more value than folded hands."

Upma is a simple, nourishing dish prepared quickly with roasted semolina and vegetables. Begin by dry-roasting the semolina to make it lighter and digestible. Heat ghee, which nourishes the body and supports the mind, in a pan. Fry chopped young onions, carrots, kohlrabi, and bell pepper. Mix powdered spices like turmeric, cumin, coriander, Himalayan salt, and chili with a little water. Add the roasted semolina to the pan and fry briefly. Pour in boiling water while stirring continuously until the mixture becomes compact. Finish with fresh coriander and lemon juice to enhance flavor. This makes a light meal suitable for breakfast or dinner, served with a vegetable salad and yogurt. "Ghee greatly improves the entire body, helps create more bodily tissues, and is very beneficial for our brain." "Lemon juice is very useful as it enhances the flavor of the food."

The grace of satsaṅga and the urgency of spiritual practice are highlighted. Two Croatian sannyāsīs were elevated to Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara after thorough scrutiny by the Akhāṛās. The title demands respect, honoring the whole paramparā. Satsaṅga with Gurudev surpasses even the Himalayas, dissolving time’s meaning. Divine moments flee swiftly, incomparable to any worldly experience. Knowledge and love rain like nectar during satsaṅga. A parable tells of a hunter who received a pāras stone to turn iron into gold. He delayed buying iron, waiting for price drops the entire ten days. The stone was returned unused, opportunity wasted by procrastination. Seekers came to the seminar yet risked squandering the chance through lack of engagement. Discipline fails in Kali Yuga; the only refuge is God’s name. Devotion, prayer, mantra, kīrtan, and pūjā carry one across illusion’s ocean. The sannyāsī uniform protects both the wearer and the tradition. Spiritual practice balances worldly duties with liberation work. The maṇipūra cakra is the center; uniting prāṇa and apāna there generates transforming vibration. Women have equal right to sannyāsa, cultivating a mother’s merciful heart. Surrender to God and divine Śakti is essential. “In Kali Yuga, the only support is the name of God—devotion, prayer, repeating your mantra, kīrtan, pūjā. O human, by repeating the name of God, you can cross the ocean of māyā.” “What is impossible, he makes possible. What is possible, he can make impossible. Even death has no chance to come near.” Filming location: Duga Uvala, Croatia

Satsang and Sanātana Dharma reveal the rare path back to the universal principle. Sanātana Dharma is the beginningless, endless law maintaining integrity in all nature. It is the dharma of the tree to grow and give shade, the river to flow, the body’s senses to function. The five living elements—earth, water, fire, air, space—must be preserved in living spaces. Excess is prohibited; going against nature brings punishment. The Vedas teach living in harmony with nature, not naming any personal God. Imbalance in the mind disrupts this dharma, causing negative states. Mantra chanting restores harmony from the navel upward. Mythological images are symbolic: the embryo in amniotic fluid is Viṣṇu on the ocean, the lotus is the navel, and the brain’s creativity is Brahmā. All scriptures ultimately declare two laws: giving good brings good, giving bad brings bad. All beings desire happiness; no one desires sorrow. Use the mind wisely, avoiding negative thoughts that create inner tension. Smiling relaxes the whole being; frowning contracts muscles and harms the heart. Causing pain to any creature violates this dharma. The immortal soul is divine, while man-made plastic is a destructive immortality. Fire’s dharma is to burn without discrimination; karma yields results without compromise. Remain happy, chant the divine name, and see the one Brahman in all forms. "If you give good, you get good; if you do bad, you get bad." "Sanātana Dharma says, maintain all of nature. Don't go against nature, otherwise nature will punish you."

The grace of the holy feet is bestowed through divine compassion. This gathering honors the incarnation day of a beloved Gurudev. The world requires divine incarnations to uphold Dharma. There are two types: Nitya, the eternal principle, and Naimittika, those who manifest in specific ages. To recognize a saint, one must open the heart, for divinity resides where devotees sing with love. Outer appearance or robes do not define a saint; it is the inner color of devotion and consciousness. Doubt spoils spiritual progress like a drop of sourness in milk. True spiritual wealth is passed from Guru to disciple through strict discipline, immense love, and unwavering dedication to pure teaching. The Guru's grace is vivid and protective even beyond the physical form. "‘Avatāra’ means one who comes into this world to uplift Yogamāyā." "I live there where my bhaktas sing my name with love, with devotion."

The essence of spiritual practice is personal, direct effort. One cannot delegate the work and expect to receive the result. Farming requires the farmer's personal attention. Love demands one's own presence. Prayer and mantra must be performed by the seeker for their own benefit. An itch must be scratched by one's own hand to find the precise spot. Spiritual practice is the same; it cannot be outsourced. Theory is abundant, but a single gram of practice outweighs it. Practice makes perfect. All aspects of yoga—prāṇāyāma, mudrās, and the science of the vital energies—require personal application and experience. Prāṇāyāma is a foundational science for physical and mental health, regulating systems and cleansing the mind. The techniques are specific and must be applied with understanding, not randomly. Half-knowledge is more dangerous than ignorance. You must do it yourself. "Khetī, pṛthī, prathānā, put tane khujal, jo suk chahe prāṇī, hato hat sambhal." "Tons of theory are nothing compared to a gram of practice." Filming location: UK

The light of Gurudeva is the theme. Gurudeva’s mercy alone carries beings across the ocean of ignorance. The dust of the guru’s feet brings ultimate liberation. The guru’s grace deletes past destiny. Meditate on the guru’s beautiful form in the heart, and worldliness stays far away. Repeat the holy name constantly to receive that grace. The eye of the heart opens through the ointment of the mantra. Without this inner vision, one sees only the outer fruit. Elderly people’s darśan equals pilgrimage. Parents give only blessings, never anything else. The impossible becomes possible by Gurudeva. When the heart-lotus blossoms, divine sight awakens. Faith is not tested by arguments, but by surrender. The vessel must be clean for that grace to flow. Mercy cannot be bought with money or power. One must become a true recipient through humility. Realization arises not from books, but from the guru’s living presence. “Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇ Mahāprabhujī is an incarnation of Īśvara.” “Sadguru kṛpā hī unkī vidhnā kī mitāvan hārā he.” Filming location: Duga Uvala, Croatia

The mirror within reveals time, karma, and devotion, showing the unalterable line of destiny. Time is created by humans; beyond space and time there is no change. The jīvātmā is a bundle of karmas, dissolved into only Ātmā. One is not the body, mind, or intellect, yet identifies with them to project karmas. The inner mirror is found by looking within, revealing one’s reality. God grants freedom to act, but the fruits are destined by Vidhātā. The past is gone; present awareness shapes the future. Devotion means respect; three types of beings exist: the worst avoid, the middle wait for orders, the best anticipate needs. A devoted son carrying blind parents faltered under negative influence but repented. A king hunting with a sound-directed arrow mistook him for an animal and killed him. The son’s last sorrow was for his thirsty parents; the king was cursed to die suffering separation from his son. That king was Daśaratha, father of Rāma, showing karma’s unfolding. Later, Kaikeyī, manipulated, used boons to exile Rāma and crown Bharata. Rāma accepted exile joyfully; Daśaratha died remembering the fatal arrow. Destiny cannot be changed, only tilted or prevented by avoiding new karma. Purify the inner instruments—manas, buddhi, citta, ahaṃkāra—to remove veils of impurity. Even God in human form endures karmic suffering to liberate. "Mukha dekh prāṇī darpaṇ meṃ, O human, look at your face in the mirror." "Sadā bhāī, karma kī rekhā nyārī nyārī. O brothers, the line of your karma, every one of you has a different one." Filming location: Duga Uvala, Croatia

Victory here signifies God's protection of goodness. There are four kinds of milk. The first comes from all animals that give milk. The second is a mother's own milk, granting strength, love, and wisdom. The third is from nature, plant milks like coconut or soy. The fourth milk remains undisclosed; it must be sought. The mother is the first God; she introduces the father. Parents must offer children wisdom and love, not mere toys. The word guru means one who leads from darkness to light. Following the guru's instructions, Guru Vākya, prevents critical mistakes. Only a Satguru, a Brahmajñānī Guru, truly completes human life. The soul wanders through countless lives, tormented by death's messengers. Taking shelter in the Guru brings supreme happiness. The Guru's wisdom pours like nectar rain, quenching thirst and granting fearlessness and bliss. The Guru alone can transform a disciple into a Guru. Be cautious with rulers, yogis, fire, and water; deep protection comes from divine grace. "Gu means darkness, Ru means light. One who leads from the darkness of ignorance to the light of knowledge is a master." "Abhaṁ Guru Śaraṇa Sukhapāya—now I have found this happiness in the shelter of my Gurudeva."

Silence is a spiritual practice for Self-realization. It is a technique for self-inquiry, to ask "who am I?" Impurities are the first obstacle. Our own negative thinking creates immense disturbances; this is the second obstacle. The third is the curtain of ignorance. Words are a powerful weapon, for harm or peace. Therefore, self-inquiry should be done with silence. This practice requires immense energy and purifies the inner instrument. Focus on one practice to master everything; trying everything leads to loss. Have single-pointed faith in your guide. "If you practice one thing, you master everything. And if you are trying to do everything, you will lose everything." "For you, the uniform which Gurudev gave you, that is the greatest. No planets nor any constellations will attack you."

The spiritual path requires mastering discipline to move from unconscious to superconscious states. Buddha's training involved begging for alms for twelve years to erase ego. Modern practitioners often avoid such hardship. Every religion contains hard disciplines, like turning the other cheek, but few practice them. Self-realization is difficult because we are full of desires and anger. Buddha practiced severe austerities, like walking barefoot to avoid harming creatures and dividing his alms into five parts. Enlightenment is the awakening of knowledge in the intellect, called bodha. Our consciousness operates on three levels: waking, sleep, and dream. Beneath that lies the unconscious, storing past karma and destiny. The subconscious records all life impressions from the moment the soul descends through the elements into this world. Through practice, we aim for higher consciousness beyond these three states, reaching Turīya and then Turīyātīta, beyond time and the three gunas. Samādhi can be with seed (Savikalpa) or without seed (Nirvikalpa), like Buddha's. A single desire can pull consciousness down from a high state. "Buddha underwent very hard training, which means discipline." "If someone gives you a slap on your cheek, then your second…? Are you able to do this, my dear?"

The sleep of a yogi is a conscious practice, not unconscious rest. We pass through three states: waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. Most people lose their human life in sleep and gossip. A yogi masters the transition between these states, remaining aware as consciousness shifts. This practice is Yoga Nidra, where the body rests but awareness is fully alert at the tenth door, the Brahmarandhra. It purifies the subconscious and replaces ordinary sleep. Do not sleep at sunrise or sunset, as these are times for prayer, not rest. Your dreams reveal your true impressions and relationships. The company of good people and this conscious practice is the best treatment for the mind. Understand the transition; do not miss the moment consciousness changes from waking to sleep. Preserve spiritual poetry like bhajans perfectly, as they contain unchangeable wisdom. "Yogīs, 24 hours their consciousness is involved with the brahmarāgya." "In that sleep, he is awakened."

True knowledge requires unwavering adherence to a pure spiritual system and the humility to receive it. Many modern products are made poorly, designed for repeated purchase. Spiritual knowledge cannot be similarly compromised. Just as many blossoms do not bear fruit, many spiritual aspirants will not ripen to truth. One must remain connected to the source; leaving that protection means losing the quality, like water flowing from the Ganges into other channels. Knowledge must be personally tasted to be known; intellectual understanding is insufficient. This supreme wisdom can only reside in a perfectly purified vessel, a humble and surrendered heart. It is tested in crisis through one's righteousness, endurance, true friends, and loyal partner. Ultimate trust is placed only in the Divine. "Only those fruits that remain on the branch will thrive. What we call the fruit lives on truth." "Brahmajñāna can only remain in the heart, consciousness, and intellect of such a devotee. It does not matter who is who. It means always be humble, surrendered."

All creation originates from one seed of consciousness. Countless beings inhabit earth, water, and air, born through various means. Human life is precious, yet claiming superiority is discrimination. We exist in an ocean of Māyā—ignorance and illusion—which all creatures face. To cross this ocean, one cannot rely on personal strength alone. A vessel is required. The disciplined practice of four principles provides this vessel: conduct, thinking, nourishment, and recreation. Mastery over behavior, thoughts, diet, and lifestyle allows one to navigate life's turbulence. Trust in the divine, the one shelter, is essential. Do not be deceived by divisions; God is one. Through steady practice and faith, one reaches the far shore. "Satguru Nām Jahājhe—the name of the Gurudeva is the boat. Those who will sit in will cross the ocean." "Ācār, vicār, āhār, and vihār—these are the four principles to cross this ocean of māyā." Filming locations: Adriatic coast, Croatia.

Integrating cakra, mantra, and movement creates a complete practice. Concentration on the cakra is a distinct practice often neglected. This integration is explored through Sūrya Namaskāra. It is important not to practice only the posture, only the cakra focus, or only the mantra in isolation. An integrated structure is necessary. The practice works on the removal of toxins and ignites the individual. The vibration of the mantra affects the eyes and the surrounding area. One must attune the mantra to oneself. The life force is prepared through this facing and stretching. "It is important that we do not only practice Sūrya Namaskār, not only focus on the cakra, not only practice the mantra." "So you change the mantra, and then you change the situation."
