Practising asanas concentration and bhramari pranayama

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

Practising bhramari pranayama

A guided practice for hemispheric balance through breath and focused attention. Sit straight and concentrate. Use both index fingers at the ears. Keep elbows aligned. Bite the teeth evenly to hear the sound from both sides. Control the teeth to engage both hemispheres. Perform the breath cycles for a set count, then rest. Place hands on the head and feel the vibration in both hemispheres. Observe the difference when teeth are open or closed. The breath should be equal through the nostrils. Restlessness indicates a lack of balance between the hemispheres. This technique requires consistent practice over many days. Learning this balance is not immediate, like learning to drive or fly. One must practice until it becomes internalized, able to be done without the teacher's presence. The key is intense concentration, like a pilot focusing only on the instruments, ignoring external conditions. All aspects of life and yoga require this deep, singular focus to be mastered. "Bite your teeth and see what the difference is from both." "When the master is with, but when the masters are not, that’s a problem. So, slowly." Filming location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India

The master and his disciple are one

The light of the Guru is the supreme reality. The divine lineage embodies this light. A disciple's journey involves initial confusion and resistance to the Guru's guidance. Through persistent devotion and surrender, grace is received, often in moments of deep meditation or on sacred occasions. The ultimate truth revealed is the non-dual oneness of Guru and disciple. This unity is not of form but of essence, like the ocean and its drops. Many teachers give instruction, but only the Satguru bestows the transformative blessing that awakens this knowledge within. This realization requires consistent practice and turning inward. "Guru and disciple are one." "I will make you one."

Auspicious Arrival

Today is an auspicious day for blessings and academic honors. First-year students are being honored, and third-year students are graduating. All gather to study the great scriptures together. Progress is made under shared leadership. This collective advancement fosters well-being. Such well-being persists even amidst adversity. The day is marked by both celebration and spiritual study. "Today, the first-year students of our university will be honored here." "May we all progress well here under the leadership of our Surajil, so that we may all be well even among adversaries."

Donate to handicapped people if you can

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

In your body is God inside

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

The real yoga nidra

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

We need peace in the whole world

Peace is the essential state and practice. The word "Śāntiḥ" encompasses perfect happiness and is invoked to conclude prayers. The world desperately needs this peace. Our practice and mantras are good and must be shared. Life is like a flame sustained by energy; when that is gone, the flame goes out. Our bodies contain the five elements. We should begin the day with reverence for earth and water. Observing nature, like birds and dogs greeting the sun, reveals a shared vitality. Dietary choices, like abstaining from meat, can bring more peace and clarity. Personal rituals, like morning Pūjā, connect us to this energy. We should send prayers for others from our own prāṇa. The flame of a lamp is powerful; showing it to a child can aid sleep. Our practices and words are a spiritual wealth to be given to all. We will face difficulties but should build and give goodness. Practice Trāṭak by gazing softly at a flame's clean light, then closing the eyes. "Śānti is both a feminine principle and the state of perfect happiness and joy." "Life is like this fire. When everything, like ghee, is consumed, it will go away." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

A Call for Oneness and Earthly Stewardship

We must awaken to oneness and become stewards of Earth. Our spiritual work is for all, transcending gender, moving into unity. We have destroyed much and must restore the earth, our second mother, who now cries. Chemical pollution affects every creature and leads to our conflict and demise. Earth, water, and energy are the three vital points we must protect. We must also love children properly, for they are essential to bringing the world back to peace and harmony. Our collective care will restore balance. "When we said Aum, that Aum became for all in one—one in all and all in one." "Mother Earth, and the water and the air—these three points—if we can care for them, we will be again very good." Filming location: Croatia

Just be humble and give

Humanity has lost its connection with Mother Earth, creating suffering and destruction. Humans possess great intelligence and spirituality, yet this development has led to harming the planet and each other. Modern advancements, while impressive, often involve chemicals and practices that spoil the natural world and human health. The Earth, our second mother, is now in very bad condition due to this interference. Despite having everything, people still fight and seek to kill, forgetting their shared humanity. The call is to return to humility, peace, and oneness with all life. Healing begins by sitting with Mother Earth, offering prayers, and giving selflessly. "Morning, when I wake up, I see my eyes open, and what I said, 'I am what?' Human." "We have destroyed the earth. All is for Mother Earth. Whatever we are bringing, all that is happening, why not we give some good?" Filming location: Vienna, Austria

Shivaratri Satsang with Vishwaguruji

We are the essence of Śiva, Śakti, and the Guru. From primordial space emerged three elements: space, air, and fire, associated with Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. Śiva and Śakti are one unified power, with Śakti as the dynamic force and Śiva as the conscious principle, manifesting as duality within a single body. This power is in all things. The five elements—water, earth, fire, air, and space—are alive and conscious. Our individual ātmā is like a drop from the ocean of universal consciousness; we are never separate. Everyone is a guru, as a guru is one who imparts knowledge, from a parent to a teacher. All spiritual paths and rituals, like holy water, connect to this one power. Do not reject helpers like doctors, for we may need them. True knowledge unites the scientist and the spiritual guru. "Śiva and Śakti, Śakti is the power, great, everything, and the other is that Śiva." "We are all one, and we have one heart here and our ātmā here." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

When the heart is open

The heart's call for spiritual communion is the essence of satsaṅg. All beings, from birds to humans, instinctively seek the company of their kind. This gathering fulfills a deep inner need that solitary practice cannot. People travel great distances to sit in an ashram's atmosphere, not merely for formal practice but for the nourishment of shared presence. Spiritual practice is more than physical exercise; it is for the ātmā. True reality and purity come from the heart, not from books or intellectual discourse alone. This longing is a positive addiction to peace, joy, and divine connection. When alone, the heart calls out for the company of fellow seekers. We are all gurus to one another in this shared human journey toward inner clarity. "My bhaktas, my disciples, my friends, when they come, then my heart, my feelings..." "We are also addicts. But our addiction is to spiritualities, happiness, joy, peace, God." Filming locations: Vienna, Austria.

We can't judge anybody good or bad

Great yogīs and ṛṣis exist, unseen in mountains and caves. Their profound state is beyond ordinary comprehension. The true essence is Guru's grace alone. Many claim greatness, but the authentic one does not proclaim it. The ultimate gurus are the divine principles of Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. All beings, male and female, embody Śakti and can attain this state through practice. The body is temporary; the soul journeys. The Guru is the pilot guiding all disciples. Without that grace, one is like a bird with cut wings, unable to ascend. "Guru Kṛpā He Kevalam. If you believe and you feel this, and you do everything, and you become a Guru." "Without Śakti, nothing will be. But they have to practice. They have to learn."

Feel the divine sounds of bhajans in your heart

Satya Sanātana Dharma reveals the truth uniting all within and without. Satsaṅg is gathering in truth: Sat is truth, Saṅg is togetherness first within oneself. Every spoken word, thought, and feeling contains Sat. When one person embodies truth, it returns multiplied and fills all. In deep sleep, truth emerges and one travels far in dreams. Upon waking, dream experiences vanish, revealing their unreality. Desires fulfilled in dreams are not waking truth, as shown by the ice cream story. A blind sādhu recites all holy books by heart, having inner sight. Bhajans arise from within, permeating body, energy, and sound. During a singer's pause, the bhajan's vibration is fully absorbed. Listeners must cultivate deep, silent listening. A single negative word can shatter the state of Satguru and bhajan. Impurities must be continually cleansed. The voice in bhajan, in any language, comes from the inner self. Opera singers feel the voice resounding in the whole body, uniting instrument and self. Satguru is the truth and the teacher as one. Satya Sanātana is the eternal truth, bringing inner and outer balance. "In every word we speak, even in our thoughts and feelings, there is Sat, truth." "Even with eyes closed, when you are singing, you too will sing with closed eyes... we have to clean away the impurities." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Purify yourself inside and out

The Satguru Chalīsā offers pure words that purify the heart and world. These verses cleanse impurities from thought, word, and deed. Purification is a simple, universal process. Physical cleansing practices, like nasal irrigation with neti in the morning, protect the lungs from disease. Similarly, traditional methods for cleaning teeth can maintain strength. Impurities are not only physical; negative words and mental tensions inhaled from the environment become diseases in the body. Yoga addresses both physical and mental impurities, promoting health for all beings. The practice of yoga, observed in the natural postures of creatures, is the ultimate purifier. "All that we are, all that we have, all that we are doing is purification." "Yoga is the greatest of the greatest."

You are like bees

The eternal essence, the Ātmā, is the singular sweetness within all existence. The divine flow of grace manifests through many forms, yet the source is one. Just as a single father and mother give rise to many children, the one truth expresses itself through many gurus and disciples across generations. The physical body is temporary, composed of five elements that return to nature, but the ātmā is eternal. This essence is like a single drop that contains the potential of the entire ocean. Every being—humans, animals, trees—possesses this same divine sweetness within. Therefore, one must cultivate purity in every aspect of being and never harbor negativity or harm toward others. The practice of devotion, like the collective work of bees producing honey, allows this inner sweetness to flow forth and unite all. "Otherwise, there is only one Guru, or one God, and then God will not be all Gurus, everybody." "This is not a body, but ātmā, and this is like one drop, and this drop is not like a neat drop. This one drop can make immense water again." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Purity is important in every level

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

The Living God Within: Teachings on Life, Devotion, and Self-Care

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

Relaxation and Bari Khatu Pranam

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

The sounds of the bhajans are the light of God

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

Practising led by Vishwaguruji

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

How shall we go further?

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

Practicing with Vishwaguruji

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

Memories of our Masters take us to the cosmic light

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

Bhajans help us to find our path

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

We are on the path of Alakh Puriji

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

Celebration of the anniversary of the Indian Republic Day

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

Practising yoga strengthens the immune system

Yoga practice supports health and has spread globally. The community largely remained well, though some with prior conditions needed care. Illness returned partly due to neglecting precautions. Many worldwide adopt yoga and renounce harmful habits. Practice in India exists but depth varies, with strong centers and broader adoption abroad. The Indian government now promotes yoga widely.

Full moon Satsang with Vishwaguruji

Yoga Nidrā is the awakened sleep of the yogi. This practice originates from Śiva and the Himalayan yogis. It was transmitted through the lineage of Mahāprabhujī, Devpurījī, and Alakhpurījī, now shared globally. This sleep is not ordinary; it is a state of full bodily rest with complete inner wakefulness, a luminous consciousness. It is compared to an animal resting with alert senses. This profound state is rare and known by very few genuine disciples. The common experience of tiredness from lack of sleep is different from this yogic clarity. One can practice by lying down, relaxing the body completely, yet maintaining inner awareness. Upon rising, move the body gently to return fully. "Sleeping in the river, awakened. We are sleeping, but completely awakened." "As long as you are relaxed within yourself and very, very awakened, the whole body is relaxed and the energy of that."

Gurudev is for all of us

The heart's oneness transcends physical distinctions. Humanity shares a common soul, yet fixates on bodily differences like origin or appearance. This focus creates separation. True unity is found in the heart, not the form. We must make space for others, moving from the front to allow newcomers forward. Spiritual growth is a collective journey, not a solitary claim to position. Like a drop merging into the ocean, individual hearts must flow into universal oneness. Service to all, without hierarchy, embodies this truth. "Your heart is so pure, and with very spiritual rituals, and with love and understanding, we are all one." "I'm not that God, but I'm only a servant, and a servant is for all." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

Meditation on the Self

Meditation is a practice of being fully present with the body and the inner Self. Stay fully with your body, glowing and relaxed. Tense the entire body to feel it and your thoughts. Think of yourself as the Ātman, being one with your own existence. Do not think of anything from the outside. Recite or think five times, moving awareness from the navel to the head and back. Look at and feel your navel always, as the breath is always connected to it. Be who you are in your inner Self through this practice. "Think of yourself as the Ātman. Be one with yourself." "Look at your navel; think and feel your navel always."

Bhramari helps you sleep well

The spirit of service manifests through selfless action and the power of practice sustains well-being. All teachings and satsangs are given freely, without charge. During times of crisis, aid is organized and distributed directly to those in need, providing essentials like food and water. The practice of yoga and a disciplined lifestyle are seen as protective. Specific practices like Brahmārī Prāṇāyāma generate beneficial vibrations and concentration. Natural remedies and Ayurvedic treatments are also valued. Consistent personal practice and prayer are foundational, with prayer being the most important element for a correct and good life. "Everything, everything the government gave, and now still always. And one rupee, one kilo of rice." "Prayer is the best of everything." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

Asanas for everyone and Bhramari pranayama

The practice of Sarvahitāsana integrates physical discipline with inner spiritual energy. The journey is internal, anchored in consistent practice and personal experience. True progress comes from slow, dedicated effort, not from haste. Many techniques exist, but their transmission depends on sincere reception and sharing. The core energy originates from the navel, the source of vital vibration. Physical exercises, like specific hand positions, channel this energy throughout the entire body. Using elements like water or snow can intensify this energetic awareness. The goal is to purify the nerve systems and achieve a state of holistic health and peace. This integrated practice is for the benefit of all aspects of one's being. "Everything that is going on with me, our spiritualities, our inner life, and what I do, I do, and I really come to myself again and sarvahitāsana." "And so it is that our servitas, and the servitas, what I said now, but it’s not just here, but it will also be another movement, where we do, in this also, slowly, not so."

Don't kill and understand everybody

The path of the yogi leads from the individual drop to the infinite ocean of the divine. All creatures are bound to the cycle of devouring one another. Humans can transcend by realizing the divine within. The ocean and the drop are one; the drop will merge, losing separateness. We must become one with the Self, which is Parabrahman. Do not kill any being; killing accumulates sin, drop by drop. Alcohol serves medicinal purposes, not constant consumption. Treat all people as family—every child as your child, every elder as your parent. The Guru is within as Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Śiva. Anyone who teaches something is a guru. Yet perfection is not claimed; even a driver learns from a teacher. The body dies but the Ātmā does not. Practice yoga, keep the body healthy, and be devoted. Brahmārī, the bee sound, balances brain hemispheres. Touch teeth for one vibration; separate them for another. It gives health, mind, and concentration. So follow the yogic path continuously. “The ocean and we are one, but the space is different; we are only a drop, and that is the ocean. But how long will you remain a drop? It will fall into the ocean.” “When you kill anything, it means that someone had a life in their body, and it had a time to live, and we kill them. That is what we call a sin—the sin.” Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Webcast from Jadan Ashram

The true Guru and true fellowship are the sole support for the soul. Without them, the life force departs, wandering aimlessly. The world and the ocean offer no refuge. The mind, left to its own devices, knows nothing and achieves nothing. Only through this divine connection is there blessing and grace. The tradition is honored from Sadāśiva through Śaṅkarācārya to the present teachers. The ultimate state is attained not by ritual, progeny, or wealth, but by renunciation and the knowledge of Vedānta. "What will happen if you listen to me?"

Practice Japa and remain absorbed in meditation on the Self to attain Nirvāṇa. Applying yourself to meditation destroys the sorrows of birth. All desired tasks are accomplished, and life becomes successful. For a moment's Darśana, one studies for hundreds of births; the Guru strengthens faith, and the devotee swiftly crosses the ocean of existence.

The call is to inner purity and care for all creation, to reach Parabrahma. God sends rain and snow for all creatures, not only humans. God gave knowledge so humans may reach Parabrahma. To reach Parabrahma, one must not kill or harm. If you kill animals, God says you have no heart to hear Him. Feeling God within brings happiness; hold God in your heart. Saints come from the oneness; Sanātana Dharma holds Parabrahma, Paramātmā, and God. Suffering is not real trouble; it is shown to others, but that same suffering is God. The name of God remains; other religions choose one God, but Sanātana Dharma has that oneness. Everything is already within the heart; outer conditions do not matter. People everywhere now learn spirituality through meditation, yoga, and holy books. Purity means caring for animals and the earth; do not kill them or pollute. Cleaning outside is inner cleaning; act to keep the earth pure. Chemicals and waste in food and water cause diseases like cancer. Small-scale pure growing is possible; large cities create waste and suffering. Let all come together to save the earth and make peace. In this way, the call to Parabrahma is fulfilled through inner purity and outer care. “Therefore, one in all and then all in one.” “Where there is coal, there is coal; where there is gold, there is gold.” Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Be happy and feel oneness

The human mind creates divisions like the "new year," while the earth and nature remain one. We walk upon a single earth, yet our thoughts create separation, countries, and conflict. We are one human race, beyond color or creed. Spiritual teachings speak of oneness, but even seekers fight over labels. The conflict is in the mind, not the soul. We must become "one in all and all in one." Every day can be a new beginning. Look beyond the surface waves of life to the still depth within. True peace is found in that inner unity. "Where is the new year? The sun, moon, and clouds are the same." "We should make everyone happy. You have to work—cook or don't cook—but do not make others angry."

People are very good all over the world

Humanity's diverse spiritual expressions reveal our shared essence. People worldwide celebrate festivals, pray, and seek connection. Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Jews, and others all have beautiful traditions. Indigenous cultures, like in America, hold sacred ceremonies with pipes not for tobacco but for prayer. Africans are generous people, and Japanese strive for excellence. All humans, from farmers to city dwellers, express joy through dance and community. The core teaching across lands is non-violence and compassion. We must not kill animals or harm trees; all life is interconnected. Every creature, even an ant, has a soul. Rituals involving animal sacrifice are misguided. True spirituality is recognizing the divine in all and helping everyone. Our practices may differ, but the aim is unity and goodness. We must choose actions that are right and avoid harm. "Everybody has something... So this is a human." "We should always do spirituality... we should not do what is not right."

We are here only temporarily

Birth is an ever-present reality, and unity is found in satsang. We are born from the cosmos, yet the process remains a mystery. Life begins in the womb, a state we cannot recall. Upon birth, individuality emerges; siblings from the same source develop different natures. This diversity often leads to conflict over possessions and differing religious paths. All beings, from humans to snakes, undergo countless births. Humans possess unique understanding but must choose how to use it. True practice is to love, respect, and help all creatures, recognizing the divine in everything. A story illustrates that the sacred Ganga is not merely a river but a purifying presence found within through mantra and grace. Satsang, the company of truth, is paramount. It teaches us to live harmoniously, help one another, and care for all life, seeing the one in the many. "Every day is a new day. So every day we can say, 'It is my birthday.'" "Satsaṅg is the best of all. So let’s learn good things... Understand, live as one." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The Serpent of Time and the Guru’s Grace

The body returns to earth; the serpent of time devours all; only the guru's grace reveals the inaccessible truth. This body, made from earth, returns to earth. Pride in body or wealth is an intoxication. Eight kinds of intoxication exist; pride, arrogance, ego must not exist. Kāla, the serpent of time, holds all in its mouth. No one knows when it will close its mouth and stop the breath. Life has no certainty; death may come at any moment. Even Rama and Krishna needed a guru. The guru's feet are worshipped by all the worlds. True knowledge of Brahman is forgotten in this world. People are distracted and everything is spoiled. The charity of Brahma Jnana is the highest charity. The guru gives the yoga of meditation. Break worldly desires, bad tendencies, and attachments. Then know the supreme Brahman, like a sun. The inaccessible is known through the satguru's grace. Without it, one wanders, weeps, and the opportunity is lost. "This body, formed from earth, finally returns to the earth."

The Five Benefits of Satsaṅg

The five benefits of satsaṅg are explained. Human birth is for welfare, rare, with the right to perform new karma. Satsaṅg is the first benefit: it reforms life, dispels worldly intoxication, and corrects the mind. If one slips, immediate repentance prevents the cycle of eighty-four. The second benefit is taking refuge in the Guru. The third benefit is taking refuge in the pure. The fourth benefit: the Guru imparts knowledge to be heard, contemplated, and absorbed. Hearing is like the amrak, contemplation like the vine, absorption like the goat. This practice burns impurities and brings ultimate good. The fifth benefit is self-enquiry. Searching within reveals, "I am the light of the Divine." In satsaṅg, joyful revelry leads to direct recognition. When breath separates, the realization dawns that oneself is the Divine. In the Guru's shelter, salvation is certain. The Guru's cool grace rises, beating the drum of the body's truth. Through the Guru's sieve, liberation is filtered, granting the light of Om. Speak with discernment, without burden. "Pratham lābh tum satsaṅg karlo, janam sudhar jāī ṭhāko." "Pañcam lābh khoj apne ko, maiṁ hūṁ nūr khudā ko." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The Oneness of Guru and Disciple

The guru and disciple are one in essence, not two separate entities. This truth is observed on the holy day of a divine figure, whose presence is universal. Great saints appear in different forms across all countries, yet they are fundamentally one, just as all beings are one upon leaving the body. A holy guru expressed this as being "one in all." The guru's presence is not confined to any single location but extends everywhere. Historical accounts describe divine figures merging and acting through each other, demonstrating their non-separateness. A disciple at the feet of God understands that parents, guru, and disciple are the same. Like Lord Śiva and Viṣṇu being the same, the distinction between guru and disciple is only in words, not in reality. They are as inseparable as a child and mother, or a drop of water and the vast ocean. The eternal guru is not the body but is that which protects. One should care not for worldly things but for being with God. Humans are entrusted with everything and must choose their actions, yet should not harm animals. The goal is to merge like a drop into the ocean, becoming one with the true guru. "One in all and all in one." "A disciple and a Guru are the same. Both are the same."

Mahaprabhuji's Mahasamadhi Celebration (1/4)

The divine descent and the guru's grace are the only path. Without the guru, there is no knowledge, no mantra, and no liberation. The scriptures declare this truth. The Self and the absolute cannot be realized without the land of Bharat. This is the fruit of its ancient austerities. The guru is the root of all; all branches, leaves, flowers, and fruits belong to the guru's shelter. The divine has arrived for creation. The speaker describes a transcendent origin and cosmic actions, stating a birth within Brahma and Pralaya, journeys to Vishnu, and the act of creation itself. This is presented as a direct account of divine movement and manifestation. "Guru binā gyāna harām hai. Dekho Veda Purāṇa." "Vedah purāṇa main bauvidī gāyā, Lakhanen main nahī̃ āyā."

Bhajan evening in Jadan Ashram

The Word is the fundamental reality and sole medium for divine connection. All spiritual practice, perception, and liberation arise from and depend upon the sacred Word. Through the Word alone one perceives the divine, receives grace, and gains all knowledge. It is the means of union and the instrument of effortless liberation. The Word contains all qualities and transcends them. It reveals the light, the illusion, and the supreme bliss. The true Guru, who is formless consciousness, sits within the heart and spontaneously guides those in silent meditation to freedom. From him flow the words of experiential wisdom. He unites the vital energies, leading to recognition in the inner space, whereby one attains the unreachable.

We must be in unity

Yoga and daily life lead to peace, purity, and realization of the Absolute. Yoga practice is peaceful and extends beyond the physical body to Paramātmā. Food must be very clean and pure. Many medicines contain hidden animal products, which is not good. In India, pure yogic food is traditionally given. Some teachers maintain this purity completely. Modern food nourishes diseases like cancer. Cancer always existed but now increases. Yoga centers and gurus follow sanātana dharma, teaching pure practices, exercises, meditation, and right food. Some now avoid speaking of dietary restrictions. All paths and techniques lead to one reality. India’s ancient knowledge is vast, with Vedas considered very old. The four Vedas and scriptures preserve this wisdom. Before invasions, the Gurukul system offered broad, deep education. The great library at Takṣaśilā burned for six months, destroying much knowledge. The system persisted until removed by the British. When Europe had nomads, India had culture. Efforts recover lost knowledge, as the tradition remains a source of truth. "Yoga practice is that which is very peaceful and harmonious, and not only for the physical body, but further, for all, till Parabrahma, Paramātmā." "We should all be one... They are teaching the same thing, and we are all coming to one point, because that is the reality." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Stories about master and disciple

Sādhanā must be properly practiced as the guru teaches. Disciples sing bhajans daily and inquire to become yogis and understand sādhanā. If sādhanā is not performed properly, life cannot be good. The sādhanā given by Alakhpurījī, Devpurījī, and Mahāprabhujī is known by some. One disciple, Premānand, did difficult sevā, living only for his guru. Gurus, parents, and worldly bonds all present challenges. A student spent time at the ashram school but left to follow his own guru; later he became a brilliant yogi drawing many seekers. Another young speaker explained that buttoning from bottom to top is correct; top-down is wrong. He then asked for a lecture but the teacher wished to hear him instead. A tale tells of a father and son evading a ticket on a train. The son extorted money for treats, threatening to reveal his true age. Finally the father lamented that buying a ticket would have cost far less. Mahāprabhujī once sent a disciple out in blazing heat to beg for food. The disciple was told to bring back whatever was given. When the disciple feared being left, the guru promised to bring him food wherever he was. That is the true bond of guru and disciple. Among countless sādhus, perhaps only one or two are genuine. "If this is not done properly, then it is not good; your life will not be good." "Wherever you are, I will bring you food."

Bhramari pranayama and Om chanting

Bhajan and mantra are essential practices for inner cleansing and maintaining the correct path. These disciplines continuously work within the mind to bring the inner self forward toward the divine. Many have diverted toward material pursuits, losing the language and daily practice of their tradition. This shift must be corrected by returning to the inner self through consistent practice. Yoga, particularly Brahmārī Prāṇāyāma, is vital for bringing balance to both brain hemispheres. This technique involves placing index fingers in the ears with aligned elbows and shoulders to internalize sound. Concentrate on the resulting vibration throughout the entire body, from head to toe, to achieve unity and peace. Further focus should be directed to the tip of the nose to cultivate deep concentration and self-control. "A mantra continuously works within our brain, mind, and understanding, bringing our self forward at all times." "Brahmārī Prāṇāyāma is very, very great for bringing the human brain into balance."
