Is this thought really important to you?

13:15 - 14:10|Recorded on 10 Jun 2017
A guided meditation on analyzing and releasing thoughts to achieve mental freedom. Settle into a comfortable posture, relaxing the entire body. Observe the natural breath, feeling the body's energy and motionlessness. Release all thoughts to relieve stress. Now, analyze your thoughts. From many thoughts, select one major thought. Investigate its cause, origin, and importance. Recognize that this analysis itself can create tension. Forgive the thought, forget it, and become free. You possess the power to give it up. All mental modifications are like waves on water; they will calm down. Relax physically and mentally. Do not return to thoughts that cause stress. Bring awareness to the center of the brows and look inwardly toward a beautiful future. The past is past; remain present. Purify your energy with each heartbeat, breath, and thought, moving toward light and clarity. Feel the shelter of the lineage. Conclude by feeling the breath, chanting, and gently returning awareness to the body. "Analyze your thoughts, and from many thoughts, pick up one major thought." "All the vṛttis, all the thoughts, just like the waves on the water. It will calm down." Filming location: Debrecen, Hungary

Balancing Heart and Intellect

14:15 - 15:16 | From: 3 Jun 2012
The human being is a balance of heart and intellect. Emotion and intelligence are both essential. Ego is necessary for survival, but it must be refined into self-respect, which means respecting others through our actions and cleanliness. Uncontrolled emotions like anger are destructive. The Upaniṣads teach that within the physical heart is a cave holding the blue light of the soul, the seat of the jīvātmā. The brain connects the chakras, but when this soul departs, bodily functions cease. Fire, Agni, is a divine element present in many forms: as digestive fire creating hunger, as the fire of desire and anger, and as the sacred fire of love and longing for God. Modern life severs our connection to ancestors and the natural elements, leading to suffering and a loss of roots. Our intellect can be polluted by selfish senses, but viveka, the discerning intelligence between truth and falsehood, remains pure. Practice develops viveka and vairāgya, renunciation. The five elements support the body, and through spiritual practice like Kuṇḍalinī Yoga, prāṇa nourishes the soul. True love is surrender and coordination between heart and intellect, creating better humans and a better world. "Brahmārpaṇaṃ brahmahavir brahmāgnau brahmaṇā hutam." "Brahma Satya, Jagat Mithyā."

The Unshakeable Victory of Truth

15:20 - 16:15 | From: 11 Jul 1992
Truth is ultimately unshakeable and always victorious. I began this work with the conviction that truth cannot be hidden; it will always emerge. I have traveled widely, even to places where speaking of God was forbidden, yet I faced no difficulties because I held one thought: the Guru always protects you. Be fearless and without doubt. A story illustrates this: a king, Hiraṇyakaśyapu, sought immortality through a boon that he could not be killed by any known means. He declared himself God and forbade worship. His son, Prahlāda, was a devoted bhakta who continually sang God's name despite his father's persecution. The king finally threatened him before a red-hot iron pillar. As Prahlāda embraced it, the pillar burst open, revealing the Narasiṁha Avatāra—a half-man, half-lion form of God—who killed the king at twilight in a doorway, thus fulfilling the boon's conditions and liberating the kingdom. This victory of truth is celebrated. The lesson is to surrender completely with love, which is the only power that can bind even God. Purify your heart of negativity, for God resides where there is love and sincere dedication. Giving yourself fully is different from merely saying you will. "Be fearless and without any doubts. Never be afraid." "God carries His disciples, His devotees, on His palm very carefully." Filming location: Budapest, Hungary

A Journey of Remembrance and Reverence

21:15 - 21:22 | From 10 Jan 2026
I recently traveled to pay respects at the samādhi of a revered female ascetic. She was the first female Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara in our tradition, renowned for memorizing sacred texts from a very young age and receiving a title for it. She had a large spiritual family of disciples managing various ashrams. We shared a good connection from past meetings at gatherings and when she visited our Guru. Upon learning of her passing, I journeyed through the night to attend the funeral procession in Ahmedabad, which culminated in her burial at a chosen site outside the city alongside other senior ascetics. It was a full 24-hour journey of remembrance. "She was the first female Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara in our Akhāṛā." "Her wish was to have her samādhi in Hargośālā." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Your faith is Your liberator

20:10 - 21:08 | From 1 Oct 2007
The mission of human life is self-realization. Today commemorates the victory of truth over falsehood. To navigate life successfully, ask five questions daily. First, remember "I am a human," which awakens inner discernment to avoid negative actions. Human qualities like knowledge, kindness, and forgiveness distinguish us; these hidden treasures must be protected. Neglecting these qualities for negative thoughts spoils them, like lemon in milk. Dry intellect without devotion is lost. The prime mission is not worldly achievements but Ātmā-jñāna, realizing the universal Self within all. This human birth offers unique tools for this purpose. Life is a transient theater; we must use our time to realize the immortal Ātmā. Liberation requires sincere practice and unshakable faith in the guiding grace. "God does not want these tricks. God Kṛṣṇa, Gopāla, is happy when you are doing really with an honest heart, with love." "In this Kali Yuga, we have only one hope: the name of God, mantra, your mantra. Repeat and repeat and repeat. O human, you will cross the ocean." Filming location: Vienna, Austria DVD 386

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
