Sanathana Dharma

Sanātana Dharma is the universal principle, not a religion. The Vedas and Upaniṣads teach of one nameless God, Īśvara. This wisdom is a world heritage. Our practice is a complete life, not just postures. Originally, there was only this eternal law. We also affirm millions of divine forms. This is not a contradiction. All forms originate from the one source, like all liquids from water. The ultimate truth is Brahman; the changing world is unreal. Human life is precious yet limited. We strive but cannot overcome all. Universal principles like peace belong to all. "One in all and all in one." "Brahma śakti jagat mithyā. The reality, the truth, the ultimate truth is Brahman. And jagat mithyā: all this changeable world is unreality." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Food

Food's origin and offering transform its energy. Food affects body, mind, and intellect. A thief saw a meditating saint, and his mental patterns shifted. Seeing holiness awakens sacred love. The thief, seeking good karma, resolved to offer food. The saint initially refused, knowing the food's energy. The thief paid a restaurant for fresh food. After eating, the saint felt compelled to go to a village temple. During prayer, seeing a gold statue, thoughts of theft arose from the ingested food. He stole the statue. Pursued at dawn, he ran until the food digested, clearing his intellect. He claimed Śiva wanted a bath, cleaned the statue, and returned it. Reflecting, he realized the thief's food caused the impulse. Food's source matters; it carries the energy of its provider. Offering food to God neutralizes it. Do not taste food before offering. Do not overly praise food being served to others. Make offering a practice. "Therefore, if you can pray and offer your food to God, it is said to be neutralized." "Do not look at someone eating and say, 'Oh, very good, it looks nice.'" Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Gyan Yoga

Jñāna Yoga rests on four principles: viveka, vairāgya, ṣaṭ-sampatti, and mumukṣutva. Viveka is the discerning intellect that separates the unchanging reality from the changing non-reality. The world and all within it are non-reality, mere change. The truth is Brahman, the unchanging. To free oneself from attachment to this non-reality, one needs vairāgya, or detachment. Attachment is the cause of suffering; detachment is the path to happiness and love. The third principle, ṣaṭ-sampatti, comprises six inner treasures: control of mind and senses (śama, dama), faith (śraddhā), endurance (titikṣā), and withdrawal (uparati). One must learn to endure all conditions and rise above them. Without vairāgya, one cannot enter self-realization. One is either in Māyā or in Brahman. "Brahma Satya, Jagat Mithyā—Brahman, the Supreme Truth, is the truth, and all this is unreality." "Renounce and enjoy. If you want to be happy, give up everything. If you want to be unhappy, collect many things." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Raja Yoga

True spiritual development requires integrating yoga into every moment of life, not just a brief daily practice. A one-hour class is negligible; awareness must be continuous. This does not mean constant meditation but living all actions with yogic discipline. Work and practice must align with principle. Even emotions like anger should be expressed as a yogi would—leaving no lasting scar, like beating water with a stick. One must dive within the self to see the patterns of destiny. Utilize every moment; do not waste time or blame others. Practice awareness of nourishment, company, behavior, and thought. You are the king of the self; the mind and senses are your subjects to be controlled, not to enslave you. The eight limbs of Raja Yoga are to be practiced together daily, not sequentially. Asana is a steady, comfortable posture that allows for motionless observation, which is beautiful meditation. Liberation comes from knowledge and grace, not from posture alone. Meditation arises spontaneously when one is relaxed, like sleep. Mastery over the transitions between waking, dreaming, and sleeping is necessary to proceed toward samādhi, where individuality dissolves into oneness. "Be angry, but according to yogic principle. The anger of a yogī is like beating water with a stick." "Āsana means a steady posture—no movements, not even the small finger moves. Then observe your motionlessness."

Doubts in spiritual life

Doubt is a natural part of the spiritual path, arising from the human mind and heart. Faith must be lifelong, not temporary, guiding spiritual development. Doubt should not target the path, God, or the master, but one's own abilities. Modern existence fosters subconscious fears about survival, revealing a lack of self-confidence. While divine providence exists, one must also be active and work. A true devotee's faith must be unshakable, like a solid rock amidst storms. God assumes responsibility for the devotee's destiny, as illustrated when the divine intervened for a barber devoted to saints. Surrender to the master destroys past karmas and brings complete freedom. "If the devotee of the Lord is true, then why is there a fear in the mind?" "God takes upon Himself the destiny of the devotee." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

The Earth Charter and the Wisdom of the Sages

The Earth Charter's principles are ancient wisdom found in scriptures like the Upaniṣads. Our duty is to protect the planet, not destroy it. The core problem is mental pollution—selfishness and greed. Every action is karma, and every action has a reaction that returns to us. We must act selflessly for the well-being of all beings, recognizing the entire world as one family. Humans are the planet's protectors, yet we cause suffering through pollution and harm to animals. Sustainability requires practical change: reject plastic, recycle creatively, conserve water, and reduce chemicals. Our future depends on the atmosphere we create now; we prepare the planet for our own next life through reincarnation, a cosmic recycling. Educate others and cultivate a global consciousness of care. "Mother Earth has enough for everyone's needs, but not for their greed." "Vasudhaiva Kuṭumbakam... the entire world is one family." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Questions about Hatha Yoga

Haṭha Yoga is a powerful technique for self-control, health, and spiritual development. It purifies the body of toxins, restoring balance to all systems. Classically, "ha" is the moon, representing mind and emotion, and "ṭha" is the sun, representing intellect; their union is Haṭha Yoga. It involves six kriyās like Netī and Kapālabhātī. This practice removes unnecessary desires and thoughts, expanding consciousness toward purity. Discipline under a qualified teacher is essential. It builds immense immunity and control, enabling great sādhanās. For spiritual achievement, one must remove impurities (mala), disturbances (vikṣepa), and the curtain of ignorance (āvaraṇa). Satsaṅg is key to removing ignorance. Yoga begins with discipline; without it, there is no achievement. "Haṭha Yoga is a most powerful technique for self-control, for the development of memory, to gain good health, as well as a treatment for many diseases." "Yoga can only succeed if you have discipline. Yoga practice begins with discipline. Without discipline there is no achievement." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Mantra Yoga

Our well-being and the planet's depend on the vibration of our thoughts and language. Nature sustains all life; without trees and animals, humanity cannot survive. Human greed, not animal behavior, is destroying this balance, causing pollution, climate change, and disease. We must live a harmonious, sattvic life as protectors, not destroyers. All divisions of race, territory, and religion are human creations that cause conflict; in truth, the whole world is one family. Human language holds immense power. Kind words create a positive atmosphere and are a divine mantra, while harsh words poison and destroy. This extends beyond speech to our thoughts and body language, all of which emit vibrations felt by others and even animals. Cultivate a heart as vast and accepting as the ocean. "Speak such a language that you are happy, you make others very happy, and you will also become more and more happy." "Good language is the best mantra. Negative thinking, negative words, and criticizing are the worst of the worst." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Advice for Yoga Teachers

The yoga teacher's role is a divine responsibility to guide others toward holistic well-being and Self-realization. This duty transcends physical instruction, requiring the teacher to be a spiritual messenger free from inner doubt. True teaching is founded on knowledge, not mere belief, as belief without knowledge is fragile and filled with doubt. A teacher must embody oneness with the divine will, eliminating the ego and personal doubts that obstruct guidance. Just as a small flame must be protected from the wind, the teacher must safeguard their inner spiritual light from negative influences. The greatest gift one can give is the name of God, inspiring faith and realization. If a teacher is confused or doubtful, they cannot lead others effectively; they become the blind leading the blind. Therefore, a teacher must first establish a pure heart and solid spiritual foundation. By positively inspiring even one person toward realization, you bless all of humanity. "Within you is an ocean of bliss, and within you is a fountain of joy, and within you is the immortal one. Kill this little 'I,' your ego, your doubts." "If you can inspire and motivate one person to lead to Self-realization, it means that you gave the blessing to the whole of mankind." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Human body - physical and astral

Human life is a singular, invaluable opportunity for action on the field of karma. It will not be given repeatedly, though rebirth continues. You cannot choose your next birth, but you can work toward it; the final decision is based on your accumulated karma. This physical body alone can perform karma; the astral body cannot. Good karma yields good fruit, and bad karma yields bad fruit; this depends on you, though God gives the results. The astral body experiences but does not create karma, as shown in dreams where actions leave no physical trace. At death, you journey alone; only your karmas, along with the light of your mantra and your guide's consciousness, will accompany you. "Karma kīye jā phal dega bhagavān, yehī hai Gītā kā jñāna." "Good karma will definitely yield good fruits, and bad karmas will yield bad fruits. This depends on you." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Never have doubts

A story from the Līlā Amṛt illustrates the supreme nature of the master. During a stay, the master announced a bath. His attendant prepared the tub but doubted the water would hold the master's form. The master, a knower of all thoughts, perceived this. He entered the tub and miraculously assumed the form of a small child, playing in the water without causing overflow. The attendant was stunned. After bathing, the master resumed his form, dried himself, and gave the instruction. The lesson is clear: doubt has no place in devotion. True faith is unwavering. Serving the master, or serving through his devotees, is the highest fortune. Superficial understanding cannot receive this grace. "Mahāprabhujī changed his form to that of a two- or three-year-old child." "He said, 'Never have doubt in Gurudev.'" Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

The Anāhata Chakra: Ocean and Waves

The Anāhata Chakra is an endless ocean of emotion and the cosmic Self. Its waves are individual souls, which are not different from the ocean itself. Just as water is connected to the changing moon and mind, emotion is movement and purification. The wave, like the individual soul, originates from and will merge back into the ocean. There is no true difference between the individual self and the supreme Self; the distinction is our own creation. In meditation, one feels as a wave merging into the ocean, as consciousness unites with cosmic consciousness. Self-realization occurs here but requires many experiences. This is only possible through service to the Master, which requires understanding the Master's holy words. The essence of all mantras is these words. One must meditate on the Master's form to become one with it, like an unlit candle receiving light from a lit one. "Abhaṁ guru caraṇa sukhapāya, sāgara lehara samāya." "Dhyāna mūlaṁ guru mūrti."

In Anahat Chakra wishes come true

The awakened Anāhata Chakra fulfills wishes, demanding wisdom in their use. Your heart center, when awakened, grants your desires. This power requires caution, as thought manifests reality. A traveler in a desert found a Kalpavṛkṣa, a wish-fulfilling tree. Sitting under it, his every thought materialized: food, water, a bed. Yet, his fearful thought of a ghost created one, which then killed him. Human life itself is this tree. Your own thinking, especially negative thoughts, can destroy you. Awakening the Anāhata strengthens your Saṅkalpa Śakti, your willpower. However, this must be guided by the Āgyā Chakra, the intellect's seat, for discernment. Without this balance, you risk severe problems. Purify desires before awakening the heart. Avoid negative habits and societies that lead astray, like mistaking drugs for divine consciousness. The power is immense, but intellect must direct it to ensure wishes yield positive, not destructive, fruits. "It is your own thinking that kills you." "You must know what it is that you are going to do, and what fruits will come." Filming location: Umag, Croatia

Enter into Atam Gyana

Entering Ātmā Jñāna is to realize the self through love and truth. It is not about closing your eyes but living without negative thoughts, seeing all beings as the self. Like the Pāras stone turns iron to gold, turn negativity into the divine. Without supreme love, Brahmānandam, you cannot enter. The state is Sat-chit-ānanda: truth dispels gossip and anger, divine consciousness is everywhere, and bliss arises from their union. This self-realization makes the limited individual limitless. To achieve it, follow the spiritual path faithfully. The Anāhata Chakra is the center of this self, which is love. Having this love means God appears in your heart, guiding action, such as vegetarianism, which respects life. Human life is divine but confusing; one must constantly contemplate one's mission and true nature. "All living beings are myself, and myself is the supreme one." "Where there is truth, there is everything forgiven." Filming location: Umag, Croatia

Where there is richness there is no more spirituality

Spiritual wealth is inversely related to material comfort, where prosperity often leads to forgetting the divine. After the Mahābhārata, Kṛṣṇa prepared to depart for Dvārakā. He offered to grant a wish to Kuntī. She requested that devotees receive troubles and non-believers receive a comfortable life. Kṛṣṇa questioned her, though he understood her intent. She explained that excessive happiness makes one forget God's name, as comfort breeds spiritual neglect. People engage in religion only for social occasions. In contrast, suffering constantly reminds one to call upon God. Problems invoke continuous prayer, while wealth confines spirituality to an altar. True happiness resides where God's name is remembered, not where money accumulates. "I throw the big rock on that happiness which keeps me away, or lets the name of God disappear from the heart." "I adore, I surrender to those problems which remind me every second of Thy name." Filming location: Umag, Croatia

Kapilmuni, who is known as an incarnation of Lord Visnu. Everyone is a child of some Rishi.

Kapil Muni is a divine sage and incarnation of Viṣṇu from the age of the ṛṣis. These sages lived for millennia, engaged in tapasyā, which is the deep research and meditation through which they discovered all truths. A true master does not give quick solutions but assigns long-term research, like understanding vairāgya over thousands of years. Many rush between masters, but real discipline requires steadfastness. The seat of authority, like the Vyāsagādī, is what is revered, not merely the person occupying it. Kapil Muni possessed all spiritual powers but never demonstrated them, as exhibition enslaves one. He formulated the Sāṅkhya philosophy, which Kṛṣṇa praises. Every human is spiritually connected to an ancestral ṛṣi, whose lineage exists in your blood and consciousness. "Through tapasyā, discover what you realize and how you feel through vairāgya—not for one day or five days, but for a thousand years." "Among the siddhas, I am Kapil Muni."

The wonderful tree "Neem Narayan"

The neem tree, known as Neem Nārāyaṇa, possesses divine healing qualities. This large, bitter tree yields medicinal parts. Its powder can heal skin, purify blood, and strengthen the body. Use it as a facial mask for pimples or a paste for stubborn wounds. A neem bath alleviates allergies and itching. Drinking neem tea daily boosts immunity, prevents diabetes, and aids digestion. It improves eyesight, hair quality, and nail strength. The tea also purifies blood, supports kidneys, and removes gallstones. Neem water serves as a natural pesticide for plants and a cleaner for household spaces. "To sit in the daytime under the neem tree is a kind of healing process." "It improves the immune system in the body. And it is the biggest prevention against diabetes." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Reading books alone doesn't make you wise

True wisdom is found not in books but in love, which requires the Guru's grace and inner transformation. Many scriptures contain wisdom, but wisdom itself makes one wise. Merely reading books does not grant wisdom; understanding the essence of love does. Where love exists, all virtues like forgiveness and harmony are present. Without it, all is lost and negativity arises. This cannot be learned without the Guru's grace and word. You may travel the world and complete all pilgrimages, but if you have not journeyed within and changed yourself, it is meaningless. Consider the man who meticulously washed his donkey until it shone. Upon being freed, the donkey immediately found a pile of ash and rolled in it. Similarly, satsang and holy places cleanse the heart, but if your inner habits remain unchanged, you revert to foolishness like that donkey. "By reading books, centuries past, no one became a great wise man. For those who read the two and a half letters of love, they became wise." "You may struggle through the whole world and complete all holy pilgrimages, but if you have not made the pilgrimage within yourself, if you have not changed yourself, it is nothing."

Your gratest enemy and stupidity is when you are offended. You can't digest the truth.

The core human mission is to remember your divine nature and neutralize negative tendencies. When you think "I am human," negative qualities fall away. Counter anger or jealousy by affirming your pure humanity. Many problems stem from forgetting who we are. This isn't discrimination but fulfilling your purpose: to unite and open the heart. Universal principles like love and happiness belong to all. When animalistic energy awakens, feelings turn negative—anger, hate, jealousy, greed. These are major obstacles. Taking offense destroys spiritual progress; it means you cannot digest truth or understand another's situation. Being a slave to your senses prevents true happiness, as the world constantly changes. Life is a flowing river; you cannot relive a single minute. Know your mission. Do not hate anyone, as hatred is a primary sign of ignorance. "Whenever any negative tendencies awaken in your consciousness, you should neutralize them with the thought of being a very pure, divine human being." "As long as you are the slave of your senses, there cannot be samādhi, and without samādhi you cannot be happy and content." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Why we can't get self realisation?

The obstacle to Self-realization is within you, due to a lack of dispassion, renunciation, and austerity. Trying to do everything leads to losing everything, just as watering every leaf with a leaky basket kills the tree, while watering the roots nourishes the whole. Running between masters shows inner conflict, a lack of discipline, and doubt. A seeker spent decades with many masters, gaining nothing, and grew opposed to the path. He returned to his first master to criticize him. The master assigned him to dig a well, but changed the location each day for nine days, ruining the garden with no result. On the tenth day, the frustrated seeker protested the wasted effort. The master revealed this mirrored his own life: digging many holes in his heart by constantly shifting his focus, destroying his field of confidence and achieving nothing. Had he stayed in one place with one practice, he would have attained wisdom. "If you perfect one thing, you perfect everything. Conversely, if you try to do everything, you will lose everything." "For thirty-six years, forty years, you wasted time running here and there. You made so many holes in your heart. You destroyed your field of confidence." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The Kumbha Mela

The Kumbha Melā is a universal spiritual gathering. The ancient rivers predate all named religions, making the festival for all humanity, though preserved by Hindu tradition. Millions arrive without invitation, drawn by a divine pull. Despite the immense crowd, a perfect humanitarian system provides free food, medical aid, and infrastructure on the sandy riverbank. Yet, severe austerity is evident: pilgrims endure cold with thin cloth, travel barefoot for months, and wait on wet sand. The environment is harsh, with evening smoke burning the eyes, yet devotion persists. This demonstrates profound faith and tapasyā. Historical teaching was direct: masters gave one principle, like renunciation, and disciples returned only after fully realizing it. "Early in the morning, when they prepare hot tea, they announce through loudspeakers that tea and breakfast are ready, inviting people to come. It is all without any charge." "Then they came back and said, 'Master, I have Vairāgya.' Of course, the Master was testing them." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

A healthy body has a healhty mind

The relationship between body and mind is not absolute. A body can be ill while the mind remains perfectly healthy; to insist otherwise is discriminatory. The saying refers to how a physically healthy person's mental focus weakens when illness arises, as the intellect becomes consumed by bodily concerns. But you are not that worrying intellect. You are the immortal ātmā, which cannot be destroyed. You are the indescribable divine light within that cannot be ill. Attaining this knowledge causes all psychic and psychological problems to disappear. "Oh God, I have kidney problems. Oh God, I have heart problems." "You are the ātmā, which cannot be killed by any weapons." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

Mental Training

The mind is a wild elephant, a mighty power that can be trained through logical thinking and mental techniques. Observe that everything constantly changes; this turning world is called saṃsāra. Wise ones think logically, not selfishly. Selfishness is a problem requiring self-treatment: think for others, not just yourself. It is difficult to know others' feelings, but do not be greedy or attached, for attachment brings suffering. Give others a chance; this culture of courtesy unites people and creates love. Do not make differences among people; have equal vision to avoid jealousy. Your mental development requires giving up greed and the feeling of "only me." Success is not in taking or in business, which often means cheating, but in giving—your attention, love, and chance to others. Clean your inner platform of rocks like selfishness, greed, ego, anger, and hate, so your mind, the pilot, can manage. A yogī should not have hate, which is a subtle form of hiṁsā. "Think logically. As you think for yourself, think for others too." "Successful is the one who succeeded in giving everything. To take is not difficult, but to give is difficult."

Kapil Muni

Kapila Muni is the supreme perfection among siddhas. Our spiritual lineage venerates Kapila Muni as its deity, and its tradition is ancient. The scriptural wisdom of India is an immortal ocean for realizing the dignity of human life. Merely engaging in animalistic pleasures like eating and sleeping wastes this human birth. The purpose is to awaken your human qualities through this knowledge. Kapila Muni's attainment was absolute, with perfect self-control and a consciousness present across all realms. Compared to his sadhana, our efforts are a joke. We fail to become perfect yogis due to our own laziness and desires. Therefore, you must wake up now. "O man, drinking, eating, enjoying, creating children, and sleeping—animals are also very active in this. If you are doing only this much, where is the difference between animals and you?" "If you are a perfect yogī, even God will adore you." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Disease Prevention Program

Cancer arises from many causes, including environmental toxins and karmic destiny, yet prevention through yogic discipline and diet is paramount. Some claim yoga can cure cancer, but rigorous practice does not guarantee immunity, as destiny and karma play a role. A story illustrates how a non-believer, cured through prayer, found faith. The primary path is prevention: cleanse the body with Haṭha yoga techniques like netī and kapālabhāti. Adopt a strict dietary regimen featuring sprouts, lemon, turmeric, ginger, tulsi, and neem. A specific mixture of honey, lemon, and spices boosts immunity. Drink ample water, preferably from a copper vessel. Avoid alcohol, eggs, and most dairy. This practice regenerates tissues and strengthens the body's defenses against disease. "Only through positive thinking, spiritual practice, and renunciation can we overcome some destiny and karma." "This program can also cure certain diseases. Practice Kapālabhāti for five minutes and Bastrika for ten minutes." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Don't be the slave of your Siddhi

Beware of false spiritual powers and deception. The mind seeks novelty even after finding truth. Negative energy often speaks sweetly to mislead. Some falsely claim siddhis like reading auras or futures to exploit pure-hearted believers. Authentic realization is demonstrated, not proclaimed. Claiming powers one does not possess is a great sin. Such false siddhis become major obstacles on the spiritual path, binding and burning the aspirant like dry grass in fire. Genuine spiritual energy manifests naturally through presence and kindness, not through proclamation. Do not play with these things for ego or benefit. Focus on true spiritual practice. "There is no austerity greater than truth. And no greater sin than to lie." "For those who are striving to achieve samādhi, in the waking state, siddhis come. And this kind of siddhi becomes a bandage." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Love marriage and the Indian traditional karmic marriage -- we are born to have a happy family and s

Marriage is the foundation for a happy family and spiritual development, not a negative institution. Its success depends on clear thinking and astrological alignment, not fleeting emotion or physical desire. The Vedic system uses birth horoscopes to determine compatible names and partners, ensuring harmony, children, and lasting union. Modern "love marriage," based on emotion alone, is rootless and leads to widespread unhappiness. In contrast, a "karmic marriage" considers family background and astrological compatibility, creating stability. Humans, like trees, have natural desires but possess intellect to avoid becoming slaves to the senses. True happiness comes from merging into oneness with a partner, being faithful for life, and following principles of diet, recreation, behavior, and thought. Correcting one's path is always possible through meditation and grace. "Marriage based on physical, sexual desire is an unhappy marriage; it will break."

What is the true fidelity in physical and spiritual level? You can learn it from the Guru Gita.

The spiritual path requires absolute loyalty, like a marriage. Initiation merges your consciousness with the teacher's; disloyalty breaks this bond. Your faith and resolve determine success, not just words. Live fully: marry wisely, raise children well, and consider astrology as a complex guide. Causing heartbreak, especially to women, creates severe karma. Past mistakes are karmic but can be repaired through direct guidance and love. "To receive initiation is a kind of marriage. Your consciousness merges into the Gurudeva's consciousness." "To break the heart of your wife is one of the biggest, heaviest karmas you can cause." Filming location: Debrecen, Hungary

The prescription addresses an imbalance in the Svādhiṣṭhāna chakra, manifesting as sexual impulses, aggression, and an inability to practice mantra during stress. First, engage physical energy through one hour of jogging, then shower and attempt to sleep. If sleep does not come, perform 108 Khatu Praṇāms. If still unsettled, read a holy book. If agitation persists, clean the street outside your house. Should calm remain elusive, fast for one week. If still not calmed, pray for guests to come. This is the surrounding education for a psychic illness. Further, organize satsaṅg at home daily. Use a Nāgarbhaṭī lamp to chant the Mahāmṛtyu Jaya Mantra in every room for purification. Regarding a difficult neighbor, be friendly or ignore them. If they persist, change your location; this is the bird's technique to avoid disturbance. "That will purify the space."

What is the Holi festival? It is the victory of the bhaktas over the evil. (Effect of total Moon ecl

A lunar eclipse is harmful for spiritual development, casting a negative influence on the visible part of Earth. The moon governs karma, emotion, and life itself; its light sustains the world. The festival of Holī, occurring on a full moon, celebrates the victory of devotion over tyranny. It originates from a story of a king, Hiraṇyakaśipu, who declared himself God and forbade prayer. His devout son, Prahlāda, maintained faith despite persecution. The king was ultimately destroyed at twilight on a threshold by a divine form that was neither man nor beast, fulfilling a divine promise. The burning of the Holī bonfire symbolizes the defeat of evil. European Carnival traditions are imitations of this holy festival, showing how culture moves and unites people.

Questions about the krya, the breathing, etc.

The right time for Kriyā is determined, and readiness is shown through diligent daily practice of one's existing mantra. Complete yogic breathing follows a specific wave-like motion from the stomach to the chest. For deep purification, follow the established techniques and eat only when genuinely hungry to preserve digestive strength. Eating a small amount before a meal can dampen the digestive fire, leading to poor digestion. True hunger makes simple food taste delightful. Controlling eating habits allows the body to purify itself. The body's natural purification is hindered by constant consumption. Mastery comes from consistent practice and disciplined living. "Eat when you are hungry." "If we can control our eating habits, the body will be purified." Filming location: Debrecen, Hungary

Can we remember past lives is hypnosis?

In hypnosis, you cannot access past lives or recognize astral beings; you access only your own subconscious mind. The state is one of deep introspection, not external truth. A memory presented as a past life is a projection of a current, unresolved issue. For example, a woman under hypnosis recalled a detailed life in Egypt where her husband neglected her. This was not a past life but a reflection of her present relationship dynamic. Like a dream, these narratives feel real but lack physical evidence. If you dream of writing a symbol in a distant place, you cannot verify it upon waking. The subconscious materializes current psychic content, not historical fact. Therefore, hypnosis reveals hidden present conflicts, not past incarnations. "Therefore, I do not agree that in hypnosis you can go to a past life or see some other beings." "But I do believe that those psychic things, or anything that is hidden in your subconsciousness, comes out—the present problem of this life." Filming location: Debrecen, Hungary

Real devotion and devotion from greediness -- who can see GOD, for whom GURUDEVA appears?

A night of intense devotion reveals the difference between temporary emotion and true spiritual seeking. We observed an anniversary with all-night prayer. Around forty-five people fasted and wept with longing. I retired to my room for mantra practice. In the early morning, I received a vision. I was asked what I wished for. I expressed a wish and asked if it could be granted. The reply was that it was being granted now and also given to all those praying. A statement was made that they were not true devotees, only crying in that moment, and that nearly none would remain. Years later, I reflected and challenged this, citing their all-night recitation, weeping, love, and fasting. The response was that it was their greed and ego, not a prayer for liberation, and that they would not be thankful either. Indeed, out of those forty-five, perhaps only five or three remain. The lesson is that when you come to your master, do not come temporarily. "They are not devotees. They are crying only now. You will see very soon nearly none of them will be here with you." "It is their greediness and their ego. They are not praying for mokṣa. They will not be thankful to you either." Filming location: Debrecen, Hungary

What is the real aim of the human life? Oh man, the creator designed everything for you -- be conten

Human life has a singular purpose: to attain Self-Realization. Many sorrow over life, but why worry? Who gave you life arranges all you deserve. Be content and accept destiny. The body is an instrument; do not use it only for physical desires. Ignorant ones concentrate on these desires. The wise know desires lead to destruction, preventing Self-Knowledge. Without practice, theory is nothing. You may repeat miserable lives. Do not think you will always be born human. You must deserve heaven; this is an unchangeable truth. Therefore, use the intellect for spiritual education, not merely for animal-like activities. Find a true guide and follow one path without changing. To follow, you must root out desire and anger. Purify the body's field through discipline. Cultivate it with daily practice. When the heart is pure, the guide gives the mantra. Without it, practice cannot succeed. Repeat the mantra constantly; it is spiritual currency that goes with you. Let no breath be empty of it. Practice diligently, but not as a mindless routine. When concentration is needed for work, you may set it aside. "Jo dega choṭī, vo dega roṭī"—Who gave the peak will give the food. "Kāma krodha ko durhatau"—remove desire and anger far away.

Spiritual practice and love. Don't miss the Satsang -- but the Satsang should be SATSANG!

The spiritual heart is a field cultivated through compassion and watered by the wisdom of satsang. Compassion makes the field green, but it dries without wisdom's rain. Satsang provides this nectar, a well of intuition and motivation. True satsang consists of the Guru's words and teachings. The harvest yields fruits of knowledge, humility, and love. The senses, like workers, gather these crops. One must be like a bee drawn to nectar, automatically going to satsang without complaint or invitation. The harvested wisdom must be collected within the heart and intellect. This gain must be shared with others through satsang, not hoarded, for it requires flow. Discipline is essential to avoid bad company and protect this harvest. Realization comes through following the Guru's word. Life is for self-realization, supported by practices for health and balance, though the ultimate goal transcends them. "It is said it doesn’t matter how far or difficult the path is, but never miss the satsaṅg." "Those who have mantra, those who are pure in their heart... they are concentrated on those crops, going automatically to satsaṅg." Filming location: Debrecen, Hungary

Spiritual motivation and the understanding of the birth, growing, and death

The goal of human life is self-realization. We inhabit a mortal world of constant coming and going, bound by a force like a magnet. All beings share the same basic elements and the immortal ātmā, yet individual souls carry distinct destinies shaped by karma. We journey through cycles of rebirth, experiencing union and painful separation, which deepens our attachment to this world. We accept the body's birth and growth but resist its inevitable death. While the body is mortal, the ātmā is immortal; the soul functions temporarily to experience the universe. Death is an inescapable certainty for all, a change the ātmā does not fear, for the individual soul merely changes its bodily dress. The ultimate purpose is to return to the origin of changeless, supreme bliss, a realization possible through the cultivated human intellect. "Destiny is the result, the fruit, the production of our karma." "Death for the ātmā does not mean anything. This jīvātmā, this individual soul, is just changing its dress."

We have to maintain our wellbeing ourselves

Maintain your own well-being; outer help is merely a walking stick. Whether healthy or unhealthy, stressed or depressed, only you can help yourself. External aid is supplemental, like a walking stick that cannot walk for you. When feeling exhausted, stressed, or anxious, meditate. Concentrate on the breath, through which cosmic energy enters and you radiate energy. Think you are surrounded by energy. Walk and feel yourself within energy and light. Repeat your mantra. Feel the divine presence. Relaxing your body and breath while imagining energy helps immediately. Food, people, and trees are all full of energy. This energy is from you. "Everything is full of energy. And this energy is from you." "May God bless you with all good things, and may all problems disappear with this year." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

How to practice, what to eat, how to live for your health?

A dietary regimen for regulating blood pressure and health over ten months. Adhere to a fruit and vegetable diet, a phalāhāra. Fast weekly. Eat any fruits, limiting bananas. Consume abundant salad. Tofu is limited. Nuts and seeds are permitted in moderation. Avoid potatoes, grains, bread, and most milk products; only milk and yogurt are allowed. Eat boiled vegetables without spices. Potatoes are allowed only once weekly; avoid rice. Eat a handful of dāl daily. This practice, a kind of kāyaka chalana, will lower blood pressure, balance cholesterol, and make you feel lighter. Drink plenty of water and juice. Exercise regularly. Follow this diet for three weeks yearly for major disease prevention. An Ayurvedic principle states to eat all six tastes daily, consuming sweet first. Eating sweet ten minutes before a meal allows insulin to utilize it effectively, preventing sickness. "Following this, you will see blood pressure decrease significantly and cholesterol balance." "Eating sweet last can gradually lead to type 2 diabetes." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Intellect and wisdom

Wisdom is the container; intellect is its content. No complete cure for Parkinson's exists, but vitamin C, fruits, and a high vitamin intake can slow its progression. For fear, panic, or brain imbalance: increase vitamin C and practice Prāṇāyāma. Yoga Nidrā is also very beneficial, though improvement takes time. A daily regimen of honey, lemon juice, almond paste, and Badeva paste in room-temperature water, taken on an empty stomach, helps regenerate the system and relax brain tension. "more vitamin C and Prāṇāyāma. Also, Yoga Nidrā is very good." "This will help regenerate the system and relax the tension released from the brain." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The king also have to follow the law

The Holy Rāmāyaṇa is a story of divine principles and human ethics. It centers on God Rāma, the ideal being who follows ethical principles and keeps his promises. The narrative includes the loyalty of his family. A teaching story is shared about a king of dharma, Dharmarāja, who declared himself above the law. A master then struck this king three times with a stick called Dharmadaṇḍa, demonstrating that dharma itself punishes those who stray from it. This stick represents the enforcement of principle. Dharmarāja is described as the king of dharma and liberation, who invites beings back. Yamarāja is described as the king of adharma and the dead, who forcibly takes beings away. The lesson is that ethical law applies to everyone. "Daṇḍa means two things: punishment and punishment. Dharma will daṇḍa you; dharma will punish you." "Dharmarāja comes to invite you... When Yamarāja comes, he does not say, 'You please, I'm begging you'; he pulls you." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Be careful, several things can mislead you

The mind's tyranny enslaves us to predictable cycles of suffering. We recognize its patterns yet remain powerless against its next specific creation. Addiction illustrates this bondage, where a promise of reform is broken by evening, driven by the mind's companions: greed, selfishness, and desire. These forces equate producing alcohol to producing drugs, with devastating societal consequences. This condition originates from Kali Yuga's entry into human consciousness, where money became god. The mind's destructive potential is a dormant fire within, like a volcano under snow; when awakened, it melts all resistance. We remain slaves to its cravings until death, where the mind departs only to await the next life. "Kali Yuga entered our mind as greediness, selfishness, and desires." "This mind will turn you into ashes." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Repetition is necessary in order to prevent forgetting

Remembrance is essential for spiritual development. Repetition is the circulation of life. We know reality yet forget, repeating mistakes, bound by saṃsāra. Our inner instrument, the antaḥkaraṇa, requires daily purification like a room. It consists of mind, intellect, ego, and consciousness. The mind, with its desires, dominates life and can be friend or enemy. One must not be enslaved by it. The true Self is the sovereign king. Discernment, Viveka, is the inner guide and the intellect's highest function. The intellect must awaken to Viveka's truth. "Repetition is circulation. That is life." "As long as you are a slave of your mind, you will not achieve anything." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Spirituality is developed through a way of life

True spirituality is developed not through exercises but through a way of life. It requires surrendering ego and selfishness, acting for the sake of God rather than personal desire. Service is only spiritually valid when performed without selfishness or ego. Techniques like meditation or pranayama cannot produce this inner change. The sole qualification is a heart filled with loving compassion and a readiness to serve. Disappointment in worldly life often leads one to seek shelter in the divine. The spiritual path is one of self-surrender and dedicated service, not of acquiring techniques or diplomas. "There are no techniques to develop spirituality, but there is a way of life to develop it." "The only qualification is that you have love to serve and compassion in the heart."

From today onwards I will begin again my new yoga life

The essential practice is continuity in sādhanā, sustained by love and willpower. Beginning is easy, but maintenance requires constant inner effort. The aim provides motivation, just as an ill person seeks a doctor. Sādhanā is the bucket drawing water from the well, connected by the rope of motivation. If the rope of positive thinking frays with negativity, it breaks, and the endeavor fails. Love is fundamental; when it decreases, disharmony follows and motivation dies. Doubt is a subtle bacterium that can erode even a mighty resolve. An ant repeatedly dropping a grain of rice but persevering until success teaches never to give up. Life's problems are perpetual, like bacteria that cannot be fully blocked. Therefore, one must find time for sādhanā, nurturing the inner life with the water of love, the fertilizer of care, and the light of wisdom. This creates harmony for body, mind, and soul. "O Lord, day by day, my love should increase." "Never give up. Try, practice, practice, practice. And finally, you will be able to bring your corn to the nest."

Bring in the world love, harmony, understanding and tolerance

Understanding the blessing of true friendship is rare and essential. Even in heaven, one may reject bliss for a trivial attachment, leading to lasting suffering. To comprehend a blessing requires divine grace itself. Righteousness must provide patience and support in critical moments, or it is useless. A friend is defined by loyalty in crisis, not by fair-weather admiration. Many claim friendship but love conditionally, based on wealth, health, or utility. Such relationships vanish when tested, causing deep pain. True friendship is as integral as one's own skin. We gather from different backgrounds in harmony, modeling the peace needed in a world torn by conflict. Our collective voice and heart must work beyond dogma to foster universal love and tolerance, pledging unwavering support to one another. "People love your money, not your skin." "At the most critical time of your life, who will be on your side? That is the best friend." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Keep away from the impurity

The Ātmā is your true nature of peace and bliss. You are that divine Self, the form of peace and happiness for which all entities search. Barriers of impurity, distraction, and veiling obscure this knowledge. Impurity in action, emotion, and thought prevents the clear vision of the Self. Negative thinking and speech create a heavy karma, a weight that imprisons and pulls one down. External negativity and gossip can invade and steal your inner peace. Therefore, purification is essential. Spirituality means cultivating purity to realize your true nature. "You have peace in you, and keep this peace in you." "When someone begins to talk about something negative or about someone, immediately stop." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

SVADHISTHANA CHAKRA

The Svādhiṣṭhāna Chakra is the place of the self where human personality manifests. Its orange color symbolizes awakening, renunciation, and purification, acting as a protective shield. This chakra holds negative qualities like anger, jealousy, greed, cruelty, and hatred, symbolized by the crocodile. These arise from uncontrolled passion and attachment. The energy here must be purified. Desires must be transformed into love, and anger into peace. Greed turns into giving. The chakra contains both creative and destructive forces, activated in youth like wild water. One must consciously calm these negative emotions through breath and reflection, fostering humbleness over destructive ego. Good guidance is essential for navigating this energy toward wisdom and harmony. "Orange color means the energy is awakened. Orange color means fire." "Humans are here to give, not to take."

Khatu Pranam is a capsule program

This capsule program addresses the modern desire for a condensed spiritual practice. People seek a minimized, efficient solution like a multivitamin. Khatu Praṇām is presented as such a capsule. It provides physical benefit by promoting healthy organs and improving circulation. Activating glands and organs improves the immunity system. A strong immunity helps the body fight diseases. A healthy body leads to a more stable mind, developing concentration and memory. Spiritually, it affects the chakras, the energy centers. As the Khatu Praṇām of Mahāprabhujī, it offers a direct connection. Thus, it is one complete capsule offering physical, mental, and spiritual benefit. "They ask for yoga as a capsule program, a capsule." "Khatu Praṇām is a capsule program for you: a physical benefit, a mental benefit, and a spiritual benefit—one in all and all in one."

God loves you as you are

You are not defined by negative qualities; you are the light of God, seeking happiness like all beings. The human distinction is intellect, which can be educated endlessly. Through it, we understand we are not sinners; mistakes arise from ignorance, which is not our fault. God loves you unconditionally, as a mother loves her child even when it kicks. Do not fear punishment; God welcomes you as you are. Our duty is to love and protect, not destroy. Differences in religion or status are human constructs; true unity comes from respecting all paths. Realize your aim through love, removing all obstacles between you and the divine. "Come to me as you are; I welcome you as you are. Do not think that you are holy or a sinner, or bad or good." "God will never punish us. God will love us always, as He is loving. Who is punishing us is our own stupidity." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

The Day of Holy Guruji's Holy Incarnation

Spiritual birth arises from a lineage of grace cultivated through lifetimes of austerity, devotion, and renunciation. Tapasyā is the disciplined, humble life of prayer and kindness, forging a heart ready to give everything. Such spiritual souls incarnate into families where parents, through many generations, embody this devotion without ego or selfishness. It is rare to attain human life, rarer still to find spiritual parents, inspiration, and a true master. Meeting these conditions signifies one is already self-realized. One must then continue as destined, multiplying this spiritual inheritance. However, progress requires relinquishing negative qualities like gossip, jealousy, and anger. Failure to do so leads to lower births, as actions, thoughts, and speech determine future states. Therefore, practice humility and kindness, offering genuine support while avoiding misguided advice unless one is self-realized. "Blessed is that country, fortunate is that land where Satguru Dev is incarnated." "If one meets all this, one is already self-realized." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic
