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

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

The soul's journey is from creation to liberation, moving beyond heaven and hell to merge with the Supreme. All beings exist in water, earth, and sky. Humans are given a unique capacity to know. It is said we originate from God and return to the Supreme Reality, Parabrahman, not merely to heaven or hell. Our true nature is vast, like a drop from the ocean. Judging others as 'not good' first indicates our own impurity; the tongue creates negativity. To clear the heart, offer peace and good words instead of conflict. Our spiritual practice, or sādhanā, purifies us daily, like washing a dirty garment. True renunciation, as seen in some sādhus, involves profound sacrifice, but such intense tapasyā is difficult. Many paths and teachers exist, each offering guidance. Ultimately, through yoga and devotion, the aim is to realize our divine essence and merge with the Supreme, beyond all dualities. "If I tell about someone else that they are not good, it means first, I am not good." "When you were born, you brought it, and when you will go, your hand is open, nothing is there."

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

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

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

The unity of all life is realized in Satsaṅg, the gathering in truth. All living beings share the same divine essence. Consider an ocean with a ship upon it. All creatures aboard share one vessel and one fate. The difference lies only in the physical body; the soul is the same in all. Every creature possesses the life force given by God. Humans have received a higher instruction. One should not kill any creature, as all are part of the divine whole. The principle of non-violence extends to all actions. In this age, widespread killing creates a cycle of suffering. Returning to truth and unity ends this cycle. All of humanity is one. "All are in one. Not only humans, but all creatures are there." "One should not eat other creatures because the human is near to God." Filming location: Salzburg, Austria

The heart of practice integrates life's experiences with yoga's discipline. Yesterday's walk in the forest was also good practice. Asana and pranayama have been done for many years, from youth to old age. Current techniques serve both young and old in daily life. Health issues often stem from hereditary lines, not from these exercises. Those who practice yoga are much healthier despite problems. Life involves various relationships and home situations where one may practice alone. The practice is about living well amidst all circumstances. Gurus and disciples understand that everything comes and goes, including this life. Practice connects one to the energies present, like the cyclical renewal seen in nature. The story of the couple illustrates how unspoken assumptions create lifelong unhappiness, resolved only by finally speaking the truth. A yogi's heart remains in satsang, beyond anger or trouble. Feel the heart's constant path within. "Those who were doing yoga practices, they were much better than they could be." "Because I want to give soft, very good, and hard, hard, I'm eating."

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

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

Yoga arises from the observation of all living beings by Bhagavān Śiva. Yoga originates from Bhagavān Śiva, who observed all living beings. Śiva and Śakti became one, and from that union, animal postures were revealed. Postures include those of cows, buffaloes, jackals, birds, snakes, and ocean creatures. Human postures also exist, and all movements reflect the unity of life. Eyes are a gift from Śiva, common to many creatures, showing oneness. A Rākṣasa sought immortality and performed penance. Śiva granted a boon: if the demon placed his hand on someone’s head, that being would burn. The demon was warned not to place his own hand on his own head. The demon, in anger, chased Śiva to test the boon. Viṣṇu intervened, and a female form, Śakti, appeared to the demon. Śakti offered to teach the demon to dance. While learning the dance, the demon placed his hand on his own head. Fire consumed him, and the demon died. This story teaches that one must be peaceful and not act with arrogance. True sādhanā is centered in the heart, not in jumping from thought to thought. In meditation, place attention on the heart, feel the breath, and see the heart within. "Śiva observed the whole world, everywhere, and saw how different kinds of humans and animals can become one." "Close your eyes and try to see on your chest. You have to do it yourself."

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The essence of the guru and student is the same, differing only in name and direction on the path. All come from different directions to meet at one point. Extensive worldly study, while respected, does not itself lead to the divine. True attainment comes through devotion, as illustrated by the brother who performed pūjā without formal learning yet walked on water. One must respect both worldly knowledge, like medicine, and spiritual practice. Ultimately, distinctions of religion or status dissolve; all are like drops returning to the ocean. The human duty is to affirm one's humanity daily, honor the earth as mother, and give love to everybody. "One master, or guru, comes from this side, so there is a different lecture, a different path. We are all coming to meet at one point." "The whole ocean and a little drop are the same. So we will come all together. Don't say it is this and this and that."

This sacred grove is a place of satsaṅg, established through great effort, where one must enter with clean hands and feet and without shoes. It is a beautiful, peaceful forest for prayer. Our ashram is a holy place where many have lived peacefully, having given up things like meat and alcohol. Devotees from around the world come, though some stay only briefly. This path led to the rediscovery of the ancient principle of Alak Purījī, connected to Śiva. After the era of Śiva and Shakti, Pārvatī arose, though she was initially unaware. "This is our satsaṅg, our samāj. This is what we are for everyone." "Anytime, if you desire something... you should come to this place and pray with our mantra. Everything will return to peace and harmony." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

To progress, integrate spiritual practice into daily life with devotion. Holī Gurujī said having children is important for progress; be good to them. Practice is not just for gatherings but must continue at home with your family through prayer and pūjā. You must learn and practice consistently, not only for a few days. The recent years made group practice difficult, but many continued individually. During the pandemic, our yoga practitioners largely remained healthy due to clean living and practice, though we must stay careful. My work has spread yoga widely, creating a community like a flowering tree. A devoted disciple of Mahāprabhujī recently passed, demonstrating ideal devotion by consciously leaving for his guru. We must aspire to such steadfast practice and devotion until our final moments, merging with the divine. "Your families are all yoga, our yoga. Then it is very good; you can do it at home too." "I told you always, that until the last, until the last time, when you will be in your guru and in your sādhanā, then in the last minutes, then you will go as into Paramatmā."

Devotion is the direct expression of the heart's longing for the divine. The song is an offering, a plea for refuge in the guru, who is the true shelter. Through repetitive chanting and praise, the individual consciousness seeks to dissolve. The devotee acknowledges personal incapacity for rigorous practice, surrendering entirely to grace. Worldly attachments and the snares of illusion are recognized as binding. The sole request is for the guru's compassionate hand to provide crossing. Liberation is described as the burning away of latent impressions and the cessation of identification with elemental principles. The act of singing itself becomes the transformative path.

The black motor car appears to the world traveler—a sign of the final account. Om Bhola Sri Bhagavan Dev Purushama Dev Vakit Jai. Whose deeds have become a snare? What answer will be given? Keep the eyes awake, guard the time. The refrain: The world traveler saw that black motor car. Keep it in mind. Again and again, the understanding is given: set aside forgetfulness. The world traveler saw that black motor car, keep alert. Now be anxious before sleep closes the eyes. At the final moment, the world just departs. Pay constant attention. The question echoes: What answer to the Lord? Moment by moment, the child departs. Victory to the primordial being, the great god; victory to Mangilal Ji Maharaj; victory to Deep Narayan Bhagavan; victory to the unseen being; victory to the dharma king, the world teacher; victory to the lineage of siddhas, to the true guru. “Jag musāfir dekhā vo kālā kī moṭara yā rakhī” “Kyā javāb āge devegā, nainā nindā samaya rakhī” Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The true guru guides the journey beyond form to the absolute. Many speak of heaven, but such states are not final; beings cycle through realms, including animal forms. True progress is like water evaporating from the ocean to form pure clouds, representing a refined state. That purity is accessed through true satsang. The real Satguru is a pure manifestation beyond Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva, never speaking negatively. Bhagavān Śrī Devapurījī is that light, identified with the sun and existing beyond it, guiding beings to Parabrahman. He cannot be captured in a photo; to see him is to see the sun. Religion is a human construct. The ātmā is equal in all beings, from humans to ants. The body is temporary; the Self departs. The true guru gives only purity, enabling passage through the sun to Parabrahman. "Devapurījī said, 'If you want to see me like a picture, then my picture to see is the sun.'" "The real guru will give only pure, very pure." Filming location: Rajasthan, India

A spiritual journey moves from seeking to self-understanding. One arrives seeking external knowledge, like meditation. The path provides a structured environment of seva, sādhanā, and community. This life becomes a precious opportunity for inner focus. The external world and interactions serve as mirrors. Irritation reveals pre-existing inner patterns, not the other's fault. Life's purpose is pedagogical, to teach and unravel these knots. The practice is to remain present in the now. Realization comes from living this process to uncover the already perfect self. "Life is not to give you joy. Life is to teach you." "The creation in you, it means it is already in you; it is already in you." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Compassion for all living beings is the urgent teaching. The world experiences great heat and drought. Many animals suffer and die from lack of water. While the ocean is vast and salty, sustaining life within it, life on land requires fresh water. We must help where we can. Our circumstances change, as illustrated by an old story. A mother gives her son a ring, explaining it signifies that difficult times will pass and good times will also change. This is the nature of life. We are to learn from such teachings. Therefore, we must act with practical kindness. Use water wisely. Provide water for animals and birds. Share what you have with all creatures. This is a great blessing. "Whenever you have any problems... look in the ring. Good days will come." "We should help everyone, not only humans, but all birds and animals and everything." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Life is the Ātmā within all beings, seen through the Self. Humans consume life, yet must understand this act distances them from the supreme. Feeling pain teaches non-violence. To approach God requires immense time and grace; unintentional harm may be forgiven, but intentional killing bars the path. Saints do not boast; true greatness lies in selfless service. The mala is a constant step toward God, paired with a mantra given by the guru or family. Regular prayer, like the Muslim practice, instills discipline. The greeting of praṇām is a mutual prayer for goodness. There are two mala practices: one uses a 108-bead mala with a Guru Mukhī bead, turned with the thumb and middle finger without crossing that bead. The other is Sumaran, a constant walking remembrance like the breath, without a guru point. The story of Hanuman illustrates that one's chosen divine name, like Rām, becomes an inseparable companion through constant repetition, leading ultimately to merging with divine light. "One mala means for us one step toward God." "Your Rām is your mother, your father, your brother, your good friend." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The essence of spiritual life is Satsaṅg and recognizing the inner Guru. Religious identity is temporary, but the Ātmā within all beings is eternal. This essence is like an ocean, with individuals as drops from it. In this age, humility and goodness lead to the supreme reality, while pride leads elsewhere. The true Guru is beyond all deities, often silent yet profoundly present. External achievements and learning are not the final measure. True greatness is found in humble devotion and inner truth. Association with truth and pure company is vital, yet even simple, constant remembrance can be transformative. The ultimate state is one of inner silence, where all distinctions dissolve. "Guru Dev. What is the Guru Dev? The Guru is above Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva." "Sat. What is sat? What is it? It is truth. Truth. And Saṅgha.... With whom do you want to live?"

We live in two ways: our worldly life and our spiritual life. The spiritual seed within grows continuously. We are all searching for God, who is in everyone and every creature, even a mosquito. All life is God, including the elements like water. A single drop of water becomes the ocean. Similarly, in meditation, our individual self merges into the cosmic whole, like a drop returning to the ocean. Science and spirituality are both great, but they differ. Scientists die and do not return, while great yogis can exist beyond the body. Our goal is purification through daily practice. When life leaves the body, there is only one path for all, regardless of religion. Honor your mother and father as God. Everyone who teaches you is a guru. You must walk the path yourself. "Not only humans—each and every creature is God. A living little mosquito, yes, a mosquito also has life inside, and that is God." "A single drop of water becomes the whole ocean.

A ceremony invokes peace and blessings for all existence. The divine mother is the fundamental creator. Invocations call for peace in the celestial realms, the earth, the dawn, the plants, and for all beings. Practical instructions are given amidst these blessings. The act of fetching water is consecrated and declared to become an offering. The ceremony concludes with repeated divine blessings and praises. "Gauṁ śānti pṛthivī śāntira vā śāntira uṣadayā śāntira vanaspati śānti viśvedi vā śāntira brahma śānti sarvau gauṁ śānti." "This will also become a garland."

The oneness of all life is the fundamental reality. All beings are interconnected. The divine essence is singular, whether called God, Brahman, or another name. This unity is observed in nature. Animals, from large herds to tiny ants, live in harmony and community. Humans possess a higher capacity but often misuse it through violence and separation. The elements—sun, moon, water—sustain all life, not just humanity. A human life is a sacred opportunity. One must nurture it with purity, non-violence, and love, as a parent nurtures a child. All distinctions of name, country, and religion are ultimately superficial. The goal is to realize the cosmic Self, where the individual drop merges into the universal ocean. This is the state of Parabrahman, beyond all form. "God is only one." "One in all and all in one." Filming location: Linz, Austria

Water is divine essence and life itself. Where water exists, divinity is present. It constitutes our physical form and emotional expressions, like tears of sorrow or joy. Without water, the body fails and disease follows. It flows within our nerves and blood. The ocean's salt is vital, and its evaporation forms clouds that bring rain, sustaining all life. Yogis harness this essence through breath. Human pollution has contaminated many water sources, yet nature's cycle continues to purify it. Our existence is fundamentally aqueous; every cell requires this stream. Life is inseparable from water. "Where there is water, there is God. Where there is God, there is water." "Water is life. Life is the water." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The yogic sleep of the realized being is a state of wakeful awareness. In that sleep, one knows wakefulness and makes the night bright as day. The senses are withdrawn yet perceiving, unattached like a white lotus in muddy water. One abides in the self, radiant on the throne of the heart. Wherever one looks or hears, there is no ordinary thought or sight. This is the sleep known to saints and sages, where consciousness remains fully conscious. "In that sleep, one knows wakefulness and makes the night bright as day." "Wherever one looks or hears, there is no ordinary thought or sight." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The body is our most important instrument, yet we must understand what it serves. We possess a body but are not the body itself. This possession creates attachment, which is not inherently negative but becomes a burden when it causes suffering. The body is a fragile instrument governed by the senses. Ancient wisdom compares it to a chariot: the senses are the horses, the mind the reins, the intellect the driver, and the soul the passenger. The intellect, the driver, is crucial. It must learn to control the mind and senses through discrimination and experience to carry the soul safely. While we care for the body through yoga and healthy living, the ultimate goal is to discover the passenger within. Attachment to comfort is natural, but wisdom teaches us its outcomes without needing personal suffering. The aim is to establish a relationship with the inner self. "Nothing is really important in life. Only one thing: look for the Self." "The body itself is only an instrument." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The Earth suffers from human exploitation, and our food has been destroyed by the loss of natural seeds and chemical pollution. We have dug coal, diverted water, and injected chemicals, making the mother suffer. Seeds that once lasted for generations now must be bought anew, and our vegetables are tasteless and dangerous. Educated people have ruined everything. Many diseases arise from this corrupted food. Yet, some are returning to cultivate good seeds at home. We must detach from worldly attachments to move toward the Supreme. Attachment, or moha, is the heaviest obstacle to self-realization. Discipline and satsang are the paths to remove this attachment. A story of a detached king illustrates that true renunciation means no attachment, even to family. Our senses and mind constantly seek more, but we must direct the mind through satsang and wisdom to control attachment while in the body. "Holy Gurujī used to say that Bhagavān Viṣṇu put seva and mokṣa in a scale. And the scale of seva was much heavier than mokṣa." "Attachment will always be as long as we have this physical body, as long as the indriyas are active. There will always be. But we should know this: that we wake our wisdom to know and to decide."

The journey of the jīva and the nature of the divine is explored. Living beings exist only to consume and be consumed, trapped in a cycle. Humans initially lacked knowledge, living like animals until divine revelation provided guidance. Though divine figures like Rāma and Kṛṣṇa appeared, many fail to understand their stature. People create many idols, yet the one Bhagavān is not confined to a place. All beings, from trees to animals, are moving and will ultimately go to Bhagavān. A turn to meat-eating and alcohol represents a regression, tying one to lower realms and foreign influences. In our tradition, we do not eat animals; no being is harmed in the divine court. The physical body is temporary. When the soul departs, the body perishes but the ātman remains—one and the same, without labels of Hindu or Muslim. The subtle body's destination is unknown. One must educate the next generation correctly. Ultimately, we are servants devoted to the Lord, with no other refuge. "They say, 'What will you do if you start eating meat and drinking alcohol?' This means, 'Go back, go with the insects.'" "The ātman does not say, 'I am Hindu,' or 'I am Muslim'... The ātman is one and the same." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

To change the world, you must first change yourself. Look within to see your anger, hatred, love, and devotion. Change comes through sitting with a guru, meditating, praying, and asking for forgiveness. The guru forgives and guides you to the Supreme Self. Do not blame others; first fix the bad within you. Never doubt the guru's decisions, even if they seem illogical, for his will is for your betterment. His grace alone ensures the disciple's welfare. A story illustrates this: disciples testing a guru with a bird asked if it was alive or dead. The guru said, "This is in your hands," showing our karma is our own. Another story tells of a marital misunderstanding over bread that lasted fifty years, highlighting how unspoken resentments cause lifelong suffering. Clear your mind through communication and forgiveness. "Guru kṛpā he kevalaṃ śiṣya kalyāṇamaṅgalam." "This is in your hands." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The soul's journey is from individuality to unity with the divine. Our tradition sees all with love. Historical forces, from Muslim rulers to the British, have tested this unity, yet the essence remains. God is not present in only one place; God is omnipresent. The soul enters the human body after passing through many life forms. The human birth is a rare opportunity. The relationship between the individual soul and the supreme is like a drop and the ocean; they are ultimately the same substance. Upon death, the pure soul merges with the supreme consciousness, while others return to the cycle. Every helper in life, from a parent to a driving instructor, can be considered a guru guiding us. Our duty is to raise children in righteousness and to show compassion to all creatures, great and small. "God is not there only once. God is not there only once."

Dharma and the protection of the cow are our shared duty. The tradition and divine knowledge have been given. People were told not to have more than two children, which caused great sorrow. The cow, the mother of all beings, is now being slaughtered, bringing pain to the village and the land. Many who have studied have started eating eggs and meat, and this is linked to disease. Dharma arises when facing adversity. One must not fight but act according to eternal dharma. Those who serve diligently will not eat selfishly. Everyone belongs to this eternal path and must stand together to be strong. "The cow is the mother of all beings, the same as before. But now these people are slaughtering this cow." "Dharma is something unique in this world, unlike any other." Filming location: Rajasthan, India

Evening satsang from Jadan Ashram, Rajsthan, India. Two things are important in our lives. What we eat and what we breathe. Yoga in Daily Life are practiced all over the world. Sarva Hitta asanas are good for everyone. Proper exercise is as important to us as food.

The science of connection is a real, transmissible technique beyond ordinary thought. Ancient seers mastered direct communication without instruments, a capacity inherent in all beings for good or ill. Modern learning is left behind at death, but this yogic science travels with the soul. Our mortal body contains not one soul, but a multiplicity of souls within each cell, led by a primary soul like a honeybee queen. From this collective arises our individual character, which can manifest as spiritual humility or conflict. We must care for the body as our necessary vehicle until realizing the cosmic self. All life, like trees bearing identical fruit, shares this fundamental unity. We are interconnected parts of a single tree across the world. The current age presents challenges, but through steadfast practice and the guru's grace, we must persist on the path without giving up. "To see you all, I know, is a matter of science. It doesn't matter what we think; it is about techniques—the techniques, the science." "Our body is mortal, and our body will die. In our body, we have our ātmā, our soul. But in our body, there is not only one soul." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

The Guru principle is eternal, transcending the cyclical divine play of Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. These deities change and serve each other across ages, but the Guru's seat, the Gāḍī, remains. This seat is not the individual but the eternal principle they temporarily represent. Humans originate from the Saptaṛṣis, creating lineages of saṃskāra, not hierarchy. Our spiritual practice seeks the answer to "Who am I?" within this eternal shelter. The physical lineage continues through specific seats and disciples. "Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva will change, but the Guru will remain." "One should not sit on that chair... that Gāḍī will take that one." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

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

The yogi's sleep is a state of yogic consciousness where wakefulness is known within sleep, and day is known within night. It is a sleep without support, upon a white stone slab. In that sleep, one knows the day within the night. It is a sleep of knowledge, leading to the state of Nirvana. Through this practice, one meets the Supreme Person. The true form is revealed when one meets that Person. The guru's assembly reveals the true knowledge. The body is without a country; the divine person is wondrous. One who worships in this way is absorbed in the guru. "Us nindrāme jagratā jāne, punirātri me divasu jñānī hai." "Deha binā deśikānī hai, Deva Puruṣa dabhuta havāliyā."

Evening satsang in Jadan Ashram, Distr. Pali, Rajasthan, India. Bhajan singing.

The universal sound of bhajan originates from the navel, or nābhi. This sound is not exclusive to humans. Birds produce beautiful voices akin to bhajans, especially in peaceful ashrams. Animals like cows and buffaloes express inner happiness through their sounds. Fish in the ocean and deep lakes also create sounds, which are heard as a collective song when the water is peaceful. Many creatures, including snakes, make indistinct vocal sounds together. While humans possess greater mental capacity, all beings participate in this universal expression. The sound within a bhajan carries profound beauty that resonates from this central point. "In the morning you can come, all the birds this day are so beautiful, giving their voices like they are bhajans." "When we go further down, and in the ocean when it is very peaceful, and we look deep, we hear many, many sounds. It is like a bhajan." Filming locations: Village, Rajasthan, India.

The teaching focuses on karma yoga, universal compassion, and the soul’s journey. Karma yoga stands as the highest path. Selfless service, or seva, brings peace, harmony, and understanding. Even an ant must not be harmed. On scorching days, food and water are offered to ants with care, using thorns and stones to guard the offering. God entrusted humans to protect all creatures; fulfilling this duty leads to Parabrahman. Those who understand refrain from killing any being. At birth, a child’s hands are closed, full of divine gifts; at death, hands open, having given everything away, taking nothing. The individual soul mirrors a drop of the ocean—one with the infinite Paramātmā. The body is a lamp; when its fuel is exhausted, the flame vanishes, unseen. All people, irrespective of origin, share that same Ātmā. Heaven and hell are transient; liberation lies beyond them. In this dark age, one must strive with strength toward the supreme. Do not lecture others about their food or drink; simply pray inwardly for their transformation. All nature sleeps at sunset and awakens at sunrise, yet humans ignore this cycle. Humans alone possess the capacity to grasp this truth and transcend. This understanding is the essence of human life. "Even when you go and there is an ant, a little ant, we should not step on it, not kill it." "Heaven is heaven, but heaven will also again go. And we have to come out from earth and heaven."

Our heart is a well of giving that must flow to remain pure. We are born from and abide within a vast spiritual ocean. Knowing "I am" and feeling God within, we are here not to sit idly but to help others. Helping flows from the heart, generating more power, peace, and love. Giving enlarges the heart; withholding causes stagnation. Just as a well gives fresh water the more it is drawn, the heart yields more peace and harmony through giving. We must not refuse to give, for in truth, you are everything. Our inner energy must be kept alive by giving what we like. Even when the body perishes, the heart becomes a vast space. We practice to attain this greatness, giving to all beings. This heart-based spirituality surpasses all books. We are ultimately one. "When we help one another, it comes from our heart: more power, more peace, more love, more of everything." "As much as is drawn, so much flows... when we draw water, then clean, fresh, very nice water flows out again and again." Filming location: Vienna, Austria
