Yoga is a holistic science for wellness, integrating body, mind, and spirit. This international conference explores its application for modern health challenges. Yoga's history is ancient, now globally recognized through the International Day of Yoga. It transcends mere physical exercise, aiming for equilibrium and peace. Scientific research demonstrates its efficacy, such as increasing GABA levels to treat depression. Yoga offers a cost-effective complement to modern medicine, addressing lifestyle diseases and stress. The practice is being institutionalized through wellness centers and research to promote preventive healthcare globally. Its core principles unite and harmonize the individual with the greater whole. "Yoga is three in one: physical fitness, mental alertness, and spiritual elevation." "Yoga will make you yogya—eligible for everything. You will not become a rogī (sick person)."

Accompanying the dying is a noble act, but we each journey alone. We can offer comfort and speak of God until the last breath, yet cannot cross that final border. You arrive with nothing and leave with nothing except your karma and experiences. All possessions and arguments stay behind. The great tragedy is to die without God-realization. Do not die before attaining it. To perceive the heart's light, purify your consciousness through the mantra and positive thoughts. This inner light is wisdom, indescribable, beyond darkness and light. Repeat the mantra naturally, with devotion. Ignorance is a veil created by our actions, chasing unreality. Life has only yesterday and today; live consciously in the present. Overcome ignorance by purifying impurities, disturbances, and veils through positive thinking and selfless action. To be happy, renounce. Possessions bring worry. Travel light through life. Attachment causes suffering, while love brings freedom. Overcome jealousy. We are dependent on necessities like food and oxygen, but the more we have beyond that, the more we worry. Trust in destiny; you will receive what you need. "One comes alone and will go alone." "The more things you have, the more worries you have." Filming location: Hamburg, Germany DVD 164b

Preparing a simple, digestible vegetarian meal with Mediterranean influences. We begin a risotto by toasting raw pistachios and seasonal vegetables like cauliflower and carrots in oil. Washed rice is added. Whole cumin and coriander seeds are ground for optimal flavor and digestibility, then added with turmeric to lower the glycemic index of the white rice. Once the rice pearls, add warm water at a two-to-one ratio to rice, and a little salt. A green soup is made by boiling broccoli. A creamy salad dressing is prepared from yogurt or, for vegans, chickpea flour mixed with water and spiced with cumin, coriander, and turmeric to aid digestion. These spices, used daily in small amounts, act as antioxidants and help prevent parasites. Prepare a fresh salad with cucumbers and leaves, garnished for visual appeal. Season dressings with dissolved salt to control intake better than using crystals. Finish the soup by blending it creamy, optionally thickening it with the chickpea cream, and adding olive oil at the end to preserve its nutrients. Garnish the risotto with herbs or cheese. The meal is fresh, green, and healthful. "Jeera makes any food very easily digestible." "In this salad dressing, the salt is already dissolved, and when it comes to our tongue, we feel just enough seasoning and don’t need any more." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

A mantra is the essence of all wisdom, a tool for updating and balancing our entire being. It is a light and a leader. All spiritual practices are blessings for human well-being, aiming to cultivate compassion for all creation. Dharma is not religion but the inherent function and harmony of all things, from the body's systems to the growth of a plant. The root of dharma is mercy, dayā. Without compassion, one cannot protect the eternal harmony, sanātana. Ego and pride are the roots of sin. Understanding, not judgment, is key. Do not give up compassion as long as you live. Mantra practice purifies and integrates us through specific stages: written, chanted, whispered, mental, and finally automatic repetition. The guru's word is foundational. A mantra received from a guru is for life; its power depends on the disciple's receptivity and the removal of negative thoughts, which create severe karmic burdens. True meditation arises from this mastered practice, not from idle sitting. The protective grace of the guru and mantra is real, but one must rise above personal negativity and live in harmony. "Dharma kā mūl hai dayā. Pāpa mūla abhimāna." "Without mantra, meditation is like a body without a soul." Filming location: Vienna, Austria
