Christmas with Swamiji in Vienna

23:05 - 0:06|Recorded on 4 Dec 2014
We celebrate the arrival of Jesus, a festival of peace, love, and unity. The world needs light, both physical and the divine light of wisdom within every being. Since organized religion began, division has followed, unlike the universal, indivisible consciousness of Sanātana Dharma. Human greed creates ownership and mental pollution, which is more dangerous than physical waste. Before a bomb destroys others, it destroys itself; similarly, negative thoughts first harm the one who holds them. We are called not to judge, but to forgive and to hate the sin, not the sinner. Modern celebrations have become materialistic and polluting, especially with single-use plastics, which now seem immortal. The true gift is non-material, offered openly without harmful packaging. Our spiritual duty is selfless service, to pass on immortal wisdom. A true disciple, like Jesus, endures suffering without abandoning principle to deliver a divine message. We must write and share immortal wisdom through devotion and trust. "Forgive them; they do not know what they are doing." "We hate the sin, but not the sinner." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

How to find peace

0:10 - 1:10 | From: 4 Feb 2017
The path to peace, memory, and fearlessness is found through yogic health. Peace begins within the heart and cannot be gained from outside. A primary cause of disease and nervousness is stress from an imbalanced nervous system. Health requires disciplined nourishment. Practice Alpāhāra, eating little. After a meal, eat nothing for six hours, only water. This gives the digestive system rest. A healthy body sleeps well, a sign of peace. Memory is connected to the Mūlādhāra cakra. Practice Aśvinī Mudrā to strengthen the nervous system and develop memory. Practice Kapālabhāti Prāṇāyāma to activate the brain. Perform Śaṅkhaprakṣālana for internal purification. Health is primarily in your hands through practice. Control the diet, reduce quantity, and peace will follow. "Śānti is within your heart. Peace begins from our heart." "Eat as much as you can. But then, for six hours, nothing to eat."

Do not waste your human life

1:15 - 2:15 | From: 10 Aug 2025
Dharma is the path of righteousness, while adharma is its opposite. We each have a personal duty to follow. Jealousy and ego divert us from this path. Dharma protects those who protect it. In the Mahabharata, Arjuna was conflicted about fighting his family, but Krishna instructed him to uphold dharma by opposing adharma. Divine incarnations occur to restore dharma when evil prevails. The current Kali Yuga is still early; a time will come when dharma nearly vanishes. Human birth is a rare blessing after passing through millions of life forms. What we do with this life determines our future. Four blessings are essential: divine grace, scripture, the Guru, and self-effort. The Guru's grace is paramount, guiding and protecting, but we must take the initiative. We must follow the Guru's instruction without logic, as the Guru sees past, present, and future. Calm the mind and let thoughts pass without engaging them. Cultivate contentment and avoid greed. Students should embody five qualities: the crow's determination, the crane's concentration, the dog's alert sleep, eating little, and living away from home for discipline. Be in the company of truth, satsang, which brings lasting happiness. Fulfill your duty to yourself first, then to others. Do not give up; the Guru protects the disciple eternally. Perform selfless service without desire for recognition. Surrender fully. Do not dwell on the past or future; reside in the present. Use the tools given—mantra, meditation, satsang—to attain inner peace. "Dharma rakṣati rakṣitaḥ." He who protects dharma, dharma protects him. "Karma karte ro, phal kī cintā mat karo." Perform your duty; do not worry about the result. Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Ujjayi Pranayam

2:20 - 3:16 | 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

Causes of our tensions

3:20 - 4:12 | From: 16 Dec 2017
Every evening should be dedicated to beauty and goodness, free from sorrow and negativity. Our topic is anti-stress through Yoga in Daily Life, a holistic system for wisdom, joy, and bliss. In this age, negative energies like hatred arise from dualism based on culture or religion, creating fear and conflict within families and society. These negative thoughts can manifest as disease. Stress comes from craving and overwork without boundaries. Material gains are left behind; only our good or negative thoughts and deeds accompany the soul, leading it upward or into darkness. These are our mental impressions, purified through mantra, prayer, and divine grace. Be fully human; let the first morning thought be "I am a human being," dissolving stress and awakening love. Live with constant vigilance in all actions and associations. Let positive thoughts flow like pure water, cleansing illness and allowing bliss. Be like a tree, giving freely without anger. Be free like a bird, moving in joy. Unite with the divine in peace. "Yoga in Daily Life is a system of wholeness. It touches our heart. It gives us a wisdom filled with joy, harmony, and bliss." "Only good thoughts, good deeds or negatives... lead our consciousness to the higher levels... or goes towards the darkness." Filming locations: Salzburg, Salzburg, Austria.

The Foundation of Family and Dharma

7:20 - 7:46 | From 9 Dec 2022
The foundation of dharma is the family, beginning with reverence for mother and father. Fulfilling this duty is the path to God. Children must emulate their parents, continuing the lineage through righteous marriage. To abandon this unity, to allow children to fall into vice, is to forsake our humanity. Even animals demonstrate loyalty, perishing when separated from their kin. If humans fail in this basic duty, they fall short of that natural standard. Upholding the family is the essence of being human. "From the first time and at the end, first comes mother and father." "If we humans cannot be there for our children, mothers and fathers, then it is great, very good."

The infinite love and blessing of Vishwaguruji

From 1 Dec 2024
The Guru is the only one near God and understands all. You are all brothers and sisters. God has done everything well, providing this space. The Guru is the highest and will do everything. God resides within you; your true nature is happiness. The beautiful pillars signify God resetting the foundations. You are everything. I have given you all knowledge. I do nothing; you do everything. The knowledge spoken here is the same as in the Bhagavad Gītā, leading to the Supreme God. "I am not the Guru; Swāmījī is the Guru." "I have given you everything. May you get everything that you want." Filming location: Slovenska Vas, 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
