Healing of humanity

13:25 - 14:34|Recorded on 20 Mar 2016
Healing arises from sound, respect, and living naturally. Mental illness creates imbalance in all aspects of life. Mass media reaches many, but true influence requires positive thinking and respect, not ego. Self-respect is social education reflected in clean appearance and considerate behavior to honor others; this is not ego. True healing returns to natural origins through mantra, yajña, and the resonance of sound described in the Vedas. Harmonious sound, or nāda, connects all hearts and heals nature, animals, and humans. Discordant modern noise causes suffering and disharmony. Sustainability requires ancient, natural systems. Positive thinking and truth dispel inner darkness. Each person must awaken their human qualities through good society and education. Begin each day affirming your humanity and the wish for all to be happy. "Self-respect is that social education. You give others good behavior so that you are respecting." "Nāda is that resonance... when it is a resonance which is uniting, connecting heart to heart... that sound is called Brahman."

Stories about master and disciple

14:40 - 15:54 | From: 19 Dec 2021
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."

The Lamp of Knowledge and the Duty of the Household

16:00 - 16:54 | From: 22 Jul 2016
The householder's duty is to cultivate a pure home through discipline, education, and rejecting vice to secure the family's spiritual future. A long struggle shaped a mindset of distrusting our own voice while overvaluing foreign words. True spiritual attainment comes not from lineage but from personal foundation in knowledge, inquiry, and practice, blessed by the Guru. You must resolve to keep the home free from intoxicants and impure foods like meat, tobacco, and eggs, for these corrupt the environment and damage your children's destiny. Do not give children tea, as it weakens digestion; provide nourishing food like sesame and ghee to energize the mind for study. Parents are sacred; their duty is to nurture the child's intellect with education and culture from within the home. Perform daily disciplines: offer salutations, recite mantras, and maintain customs. Honest work and diligent effort are the basis for livelihood. Embrace your culture fully; do not neglect its practices. "Provide good food to the children, give them a good education." "Parents are not just ordinary; they are revered."

Around the world - Yoga in Slovakia

17:00 - 18:37 | From: 5 Jun 2011
Simple living and inner peace are found through conscious practices that connect us to our divine essence. Modern life creates stress by distancing us from natural simplicity. Media consumption replaces true connection with nature and others. A healthy lifestyle requires deep contemplation on nourishment, breath, and movement. What we eat carries vibrational information; vegetarian food supports non-aggression. Conscious breathing connects us to prāṇa, the source of all change. Prayer positively charges the water within our bodies. Concentration techniques, like observing the breath or a candle flame, cultivate inner stillness. By mastering simple techniques, we find calm at the center of life's activity and transform our lives. "Go and teach people the technique of simple life, simple being." "In action, one sees the people; and in stillness, one sees the action—truly, that one is wise." Filming locations: Prešov Yoga Center, Prešov, Slovakia.

Welcome to The Fourth Sri Swami Maheshwarananda Festival of Spiritual Music this time organized in Murska Sobota, Slovenia.

The fourth Sri Swami Maheshwarananda Festival of Spiritual Music (2/4)

23:00 - 23:38 | From 6 Sep 2025
All power lies within. Strength of will and mind is essential for self-realization and to change the world. Weakness is death, so one must pull oneself together and rise up now. Meditation and high ideals must be faced directly, never abandoned, for this leads to salvation and reveals one's true nature. An inner fire must burn to reach the goal; without it, one cannot ascend. A constant stream of conscious strength must always flow. "All powers lie within you, so start to rise up now and work it out." "Without fire, you will never get higher. If your heart does not burn, your life will never turn." Filming location: Slovenia

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
