A Devotional Offering: Guru Vandana and Bhajans

23:25 - 0:35|Recorded on 21 Feb 2023
A devotional offering of Guru Vandana and bhajans is presented. Bows are offered to Satguru Dev and all present. A guitarist from Ajmer presents Guru Vandana. A request for time is made. A Mīrā bhajan is sung. The bhajan describes Mīrā’s absorption in divine love. She drinks the poison given by Rāṇā as nectar. She merges into the ocean of saints’ company. She sings Hari’s glories in every lane. This is Rāga Sāraṅga, a daytime rāga. An original composition is offered. The composition declares the world, body, and illusion false. The Sadguru gives the message of truth. The teaching points beyond words to the soundless “Om So’ham.” Refuge in the Mother grants liberation from birth and death. The immortal mantra’s secret is revealed. The offering concludes with chants of reverence to deities and gurus. “Aisī lāgī lagan, Mīrā ho gayī magan. Rāṇā ne viṣa diyā, mano amṛta piyā.” “Jhūṭī māyā, jhūṭī kāyā, jhūṭā yeh sansār hai. Morā sadguru diyo sandeśa.” Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

There is one Soul

0:40 - 2:03 | From: 24 Mar 2019
The sacred conch embodies the primordial sound from which all creation emerges. This resonance, Nāda Rūpa Parabrahma, is the Supreme's cosmic sound. Everything originates from and merges back into this sound, resolving duality into oneness. The five elements—space, fire, air, water, earth—manifest from this resonance. Life developed within these elements, with the human form arriving late. The soul is a singular essence within all manifestations, from stones to vegetation to creatures. Current existence is in Kali Yuga, an age marked by diminished love and widespread cruelty. Through spiritual practice, mercy, and understanding, one can purify the soul and ultimately merge with the divine light, transcending the cycle of suffering and separation. The journey requires moving through the sun, a rare and difficult passage to oneness. "Everything comes through sound, and it merges into sound. Duality resolves into the unity of the Supreme." "Our soul is one, but how our soul will come to purity is a long, long way."

The glory of Satsang

2:10 - 3:35 | From: 9 May 2017
There are two paths: pātan (fall, distraction) and uṭhān (upliftment, development). Both paths sprout from one seed. That seed is saṅga, the company kept. Negative company leads to downfall; positive, spiritual company leads to development. Movement itself brings achievement, but the direction of movement is determined by association. The same source can manifest as divine energy or demonic energy, both dormant in consciousness. Culture and saṃskāras received on a parent’s lap guide this potential. Yet destiny, shaped by those associations and actions, ultimately determines the outcome. A story from scripture illustrates this. Viṣṇu and Lakṣmī tested a wealthy merchant’s devotion. Viṣṇu came as a sādhu seeking a fixed seat for four months. Lakṣmī came as a sādhu demanding the same room and throwing away everything after a single use. The merchant, choosing the allure of māyā over his given word, expelled Viṣṇu. Then Lakṣmī also left, revealing the merchant’s devotion was never to the divine but to worldly wealth. Thus, one’s company reveals one’s true devotion. The street of love is too narrow for two; duality must dissolve into oneness. Satsaṅg—true company—is the path to that unity. Neither happiness, heaven, nor Brahmaloka are difficult to attain, for everything is found in satsaṅg. “Prem Gali Ati Shankari, Jisme Do Nahi Samay. When I was here, God was not here. And now God is here, I am not here.” “Neither happiness, nor pleasure, nor heaven, nor Brahmaloka are difficult to attain — all is found in satsaṅg.” Filming location: Wellington, New Zealand

Paths of destiny

3:40 - 4:52 | From: 1 Nov 2008
Yoga is the principle that balances, harmonizes, and unites space and consciousness. Its author is Lord Śiva, who first manifested through the cosmic sound Oṁ and bestowed the science of Yoga Vidyā. This living tradition is transmitted from master to disciple; theory without practice is insufficient. The human body is a microcosm connected to cosmic energy through channels called nāḍīs. The primary channels are Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumnā, governing energy, light, and resonance. The body's form reflects universal principles, with divisions like brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya, and śūdra corresponding to the head, arms, trunk, and legs, illustrating inherent unity without untouchability. The heart center, the anāhata chakra, represents love without borders. It houses divine qualities like happiness and compassion, while lower centers contain limited, material desires. Awakening energy from the mūlādhāra chakra brings forth one's destiny and karma. This energy must be purified through centers like maṇipūra to reach the heart in a state of universal love. The ultimate aim is the merger of energy, resonance, and light into cosmic consciousness. This is achieved through practices like Kuṇḍalinī Yoga and specific kriyās, which involve bandhas to direct energy through the suṣumnā channel. Real yoga is a 24-hour practice of positive living, ahiṃsā, and love for all creatures, leading to self-realization. "Yoga is not only physical and breath exercises; it is that principle which balances, harmonizes, and unites space and consciousness." "Love is without boundaries—universal love, not individual love. The seat of the Ātmā is in the Anāhata cakra." DVD 500

Ujjayi Pranayam

5:00 - 5:56 | From: 3 Jul 2016
Ujjāyī Prāṇāyāma is a meditation technique that leads to sahaja samādhi and self-inquiry. The practice involves inhaling through both nostrils and exhaling through the mouth slowly. Apply ujjāyī mudrā by pressing the chin toward the chest. Breathe deeply, aware of the breath ascending and descending between the navel and the eyebrow center. Feel fresh cool air on inhalation from Ājñā Cakra to Maṇipūra, and warm air on the lower lip during exhalation. This prāṇāyāma strengthens organs, supplies maximum oxygen, and brings physical health. It calms the vṛttis, making the mind peaceful. The body is like a vessel; the mind is like water within. If the vessel is steady, the mind becomes steady. Mastering the body means mastering the mind. The practice leads to sahaja samādhi, a temporary spontaneous absorption. It deepens one within, feeling one with the self. It is a technique for self-inquiry, ātmā anubhūti. It also develops willpower through saṅkalpa. One should remember the saṅkalpa and pray for protection of the spiritual path. The practice includes relaxing the body, no movement, and normalizing breath after deep cycles. Ultimately, it leads to meditation on the self and peace for all creation. "This kind of prāṇāyāma leads us to sahaja samādhi, spontaneous coming to the samādhi that is temporary." "The body is like a vessel, like a pot. And the mind is like water. If the pot is moving, the water is also moving. If the pot is steady, then the mind is also steady." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Develop God consciousness

10:05 - 11:06 | From 1 Feb 2006
The emergence of consciousness begins with the first principle, Svayambhū Śiva, the self-manifested divine will. The entire universe manifested from a cosmic sound, the resonance of OṂ, which permeates every atom. This planet is the realm of karma and dharma, where beings experience birth and death through the cycle of 8.4 million creatures. The divine play requires the knower, the knowledge, and the object. Most cannot understand this play; only those with grace can. Maya, or ignorance, manifests as anger, jealousy, and desire. Spiritual development requires cultivating God consciousness, which is distinct from material progress. Discipline through mantra, fasting, and silence develops this awareness. One sees only what one's consciousness permits; to see God, one must develop God consciousness. "Eko’haṁ Bhausyāmī—I am one and now I will multiply." "You can only see God if you have God consciousness." Filming location: Banska Bystrica, Slovakia DVD 240

Organic farming in Netherlands

From 3 Aug 2023
A farm's journey from industrial production to living in harmony with nature. The operation shifted from unprofitable mass cultivation to a diverse, organic system. This includes greenhouses using rainwater and biological pest controls. A large food forest integrates vegetables, fruit trees, and nitrogen-fixing plants. The focus is on sustainability, natural cycles, and creating a resilient ecosystem. The work is driven by passion and a good feeling, valued more than financial return alone. The aim is to grow healthy food while enhancing the land for the future. "Nature can do a lot. So, if a plant is sick, then it can make itself better." "It is much more important than money: a good feeling, nice to be busy with your passion." Filming location: Netherlands
