Keep your promises

1:00 - 1:39 | From: 4 Jul 2020
Saturday's powerful constellation brings both benefit and challenge, reflecting Śani's influence. A story tells of a guru carrying a watermelon that briefly appeared as a severed head due to this energy, illustrating its transformative power. To navigate such influences, one makes a lifelong vow, a saṅkalpa, like giving up a specific food. This principle of promise extends to sacred commitments like marriage, which are not to be abandoned. On Guru Pūrṇimā, all actions and karmas from the past year are offered to the guru. The relationship with one's guru is singular and foundational, like that with one's biological parents. The core practice is to surrender everything to this guiding source. "A promise is not just saying yes or no to something. It is a promise. When we make a promise, we have to follow it." "On Guru Pūrṇimā... I give all my karmas, my practice, Gurudev, to you. And what mistakes I made, I also give to you." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The origin of suffering

1:45 - 2:17 | From: 6 Jul 2015
Fear arises from ignorance and creates the karma that binds us. We are the light of the Self, yet we identify with the body and lose our true nature. Karma is not an external force but is created from our own experiences and ignorance. For example, we see a rope and mistake it for a snake, generating fear. That impression of the snake, though false, can last a lifetime. Fear resides in the subtle self, not the physical body, and weakens our confidence and strength. Stories of ghosts in graveyards persist because of our memories and attachments, not because spirits remain. Our stored fears from many lives manifest in the body, affecting glands and hormones. Loss of self-confidence disrupts these systems. Horrible dreams often stem from subconscious impressions, not direct karma. True awakening involves a healthy body and nervous system, free from the paralysis of fear. We must identify and release our fears, understanding they belong to the past. "Karma is created within our own self out of ignorance. That creates fear in us." "When fear is gone, all these karmic things are more or less gone." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The Law of Karma and the Sanctity of All Life

2:25 - 3:42 | From: 17 May 2015
The law of karma demands reverence for all life. Killing an animal creates severe karmic debt, as it inflicts suffering on an innocent being and interrupts the life given by God. For every creature you consume, you must be reborn as that creature and suffer the same death. This cycle is a long and certain justice. Spiritual practice is nullified by eating meat. The only path to purify such karma is through satsaṅg and the guidance of a true master. A master is one who loves all entities as oneself and would give his own life rather than take another's. Practice diligently and never miss satsaṅg, for it is the means to cleanse past actions and awaken consciousness. The Svādhiṣṭhāna Chakra, associated with water and the color of dawn, represents flowing energy and the hope for awakening. Its six petals symbolize the obstacles of anger, hate, greed, jealousy, cruelty, and laziness which must be purified. "How many fish you ate, that many times you have to be born as a fish and caught by a hook." "If you miss the satsaṅg, you have missed a big chance." Filming location: Vancouver, Canada

The Sacred Ritual of Abhiṣeka and the Path of Yoga

7:30 - 8:32 | From 20 Jul 2026
The sacred ritual of Abhiṣeka and the path of Yoga. The ritual begins with invocations to Gaṇapati, various deities, and blessings for long life and removal of obstacles. A saṅkalpa is declared for performing Rudra Abhiṣeka with water offerings for all devotees. The ceremony involves worship of Sphaṭika Maheśvara and the Śiva Parivāra. A series of ritual baths are offered, including water, milk, curd, honey, sugar, and pañcāmṛta. Further offerings include sandalwood paste, sacred ash, flowers, and incense. The ritual continues with Vedic chants, hymns to Śiva, and the Gāyatrī mantra. An āratī ceremony is performed with offerings of light. The worship concludes with a puṣpāñjali and declarations of victory to various deities. The entire performance is a liturgical act of devotion, not a lecture. The stated topic of Yoga is not expounded upon; the content remains a continuous ritual sequence. "Puṇyaṁ puṇyāhaṁ dīrgham āyur astu nirvighnam astu." "Vakra Tuṇḍa Mahākāya Sūrya Koṭi Samaprab

Prana and spirituality

12:15 - 13:24 | From 1 Aug 2005
The human form is a rare opportunity among countless creatures, created from the five elements and endowed with special abilities. Prāṇa is the vital energy that binds the five bodies—physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and causal—into a single being. This causal body is born from desire, perpetuating the wheel of action and reaction. Prāṇa and Apāna are opposing forces; Prāṇa draws energy in, while Apāna expels waste. Their meeting point is the navel at the Maṇipūra Cakra. Impure Apāna, caused by consuming foods like meat, garlic, and beans, creates imbalance and disease, blocking spiritual ascent. Purity of body and thought is essential. Quality attracts quality; an impure mind is repelled by spiritual company. The essence of life is to realize its temporary nature and focus on the divine name. "Prāṇa is that energy which keeps together all the five bodies." "The joy is in the name of God. All your other works and business, everything is unreal." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 221

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
