Program from Brisbane
Divine incarnations and saintly guides appear to restore balance and grant liberation.
Dharma and adharma exist in parallel until the great dissolution. When negative forces dominate, a purposeful divine descent occurs to protect righteousness and devotees. These descents are not constant but arise from necessity, like a government intervening in crisis. Simultaneously, eternal descents manifest as holy saints in every age. They guide and protect. A seeker's intense longing is the essential fire that draws divine grace. This longing, a pain infused with joy, is the path. The Guru embodies the supreme principle, acting as creator, protector, and liberator. The Guru's grace is the sole vessel for crossing the worldly ocean. Heaven is a limited realm based on past good works, not the final goal. Liberation lies beyond, attained through devoted effort and the Guru's mercy. The pure soul should feel blessed, not guilty, for this human opportunity to seek the divine.
"Time to time I manifest myself... to protect the pure souls and to destroy the adharma."
"The name of the Gurudev is the boat. Those who will sit in with devotion and confidence, be sure that Gurudev will bring you to the mainland."

Around the world - Yoga camp for Kids Strilky
We are identifying a place and performing a symbolic action with a cup. The place is depicted in a picture and contains a whirlpool in a park corner and a pond. A brightly painted cup is there, meant to stand upon a tree stump behind the pond. The action involves using group-colored pencils to tie the cup, but not to bind it completely, as it is already secured. The final instruction is to transform these pencils into the pencils of our group's boats.
"It is in the picture. And did you recognize me? Yes, indeed."
"First, we must tie it with pencils in the colors of our group. Must we bind it completely? No."

Around the world - Yoga Class of Level 1 Part 2 in Sydney
A guided practice for relaxation and gentle movement through breath and body awareness.
Begin by lying comfortably, focusing awareness on each limb. Inhale to lift a limb, exhale to lower it, releasing all tension. Coordinate breath with slow arm movements overhead and back. Stretch each side of the body individually, then diagonally, and finally the entire body. Practice rolling and spinal twists to release the back. Strengthen the core by lifting the head with hands clasped behind it. Perform knee-to-chest poses to relax the hips. Move into seated postures for spinal extension and flexion. Practice side bends. Flow through a sequence of postures that strengthen the entire body. Conclude by lying back, focusing on the smooth flow of breath from abdomen to throat to achieve deep relaxation.
"Feel a wave-like rhythm of your breathing now, from the abdomen to the chest and from the chest down to the abdomen."
"Concentrate on the flow of the breath up and down the body."
Use it, or you will lose it
Human life embodies a unique potential for higher knowledge.
A master gives that knowledge through pure teaching.
Holy scriptures hold words that cannot be altered.
Clothing, skin color, dyed hair—all outer forms are fleeting.
Leaves turn yellow and fall; the wind carries them off.
This body too will go, no matter how much one waters or treats it.
From earth it comes, and back to earth it returns, then rises again as fruit.
The cycle never stops.
Space is the ultimate aim—clear, without sun, moon, or fire.
The horizon moves farther as one draws near; it cannot be grasped.
A father hid his treasure in a wall, yet his sons did not know until he died.
Money can be stolen, but inner wealth remains.
Practice yoga, prayer, and mantra—do it or lose everything.
That inner treasure stays.
Spiritual practice is the only lasting possession.
The horizon of the self is reached only through continual practice.
“Patta ṭūṭā dal se le gayī pavan uḍāī.”
“Use it or lose it.”
