Karma and liberation

20:00 - 20:36 | From: 19 Aug 2018
The grandparents of the forest teach us about karma and the world's balance. Vegetation is essential for life, and ancient trees are loving grandparents. Good karma from non-violence leads to Svarga Loka, a temporary heaven. Bad karma from harming creatures leads to Naraka Loka. Liberation comes only through the guru's grace. Human actions are destroying the earth's equilibrium. Digging for resources creates hollow spaces and allows water in, making the planet unstable. This invites cataclysm where all will be lost. Spiritual people may depart beforehand. One must cease harming all creatures, including animals, and live with prayer and non-violence to alter this course. "Good karma that you didn’t eat meat, you didn’t kill any animals, you didn’t kill any humans. Then you come to the heaven." "Eating meat, you have to pay back. That’s it."

Preparation for advanced postures

20:40 - 21:35 | From: 9 Jul 2016
Preparing the body and mind is essential for Kriyānuṣṭhāna. Discipline is required, not all must perform advanced postures like a handstand. A foundational requirement is the ability to sit motionless for a minimum of one hour, cultivating kāya-sthairyam for a steady mind. Physical preparation over a year is needed, focusing on postures like the half and full butterfly to increase flexibility in the hamstrings and hips. Practice must be done correctly, prioritizing the quality of movement over quantity. The goal is to coordinate body and breath, leading to awareness and inner experience. Yoga integrates body, breath, and mind for peace and harmony. "Now yoga begins with anuśāsanam, which means discipline. No discipline, no success." "Our mind is like water in our body. When you move your body, your mind also moves." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Keep balance while you are practicing

21:40 - 22:40 | From: 18 Mar 2016
Yoga is a lifelong practice for body, mind, and spirit. It is an ancient science for health and self-realization, not merely physical exercise. Many misunderstand it, turning it commercial, but true yoga overcomes stress and brings peace. It is for all ages and walks of life, a daily system like eating or breathing. Practice must be balanced, without competition or strain, and includes postures, breath, and meditation. Breath harmonizes the body, and the heart works loyally; we must care for it. The body is a temple for the inner self, which dislikes aggression and falsity. Spirituality is devotion—a higher, respectful love—not a temporary, misused emotion. True devotion leads to oneness and God realization, harmonizing life and family. "Health is the first wealth." "Yoga should be for every walk of life." Filming location: London, UK

You Need Strength

22:45 - 23:34 | From: 1 Oct 2008
Yoga is the universal path for human health, harmony, and happiness, serving all creatures. It is the most ancient divine work, described in the Vedas, designed to remove negative energy and elevate consciousness. All divine incarnations and saints realized divinity through yogic techniques like meditation, prayer, and universal love. To believe in and know God are yogic principles. Religions later developed from the teachings of saints, but yoga existed before any were named. All religions aim for the one God and contain yogic techniques. The practice leads to self-realization by freeing one from negative karma. Actions are your choice, but their results are your unchangeable destiny. Desire causes trouble and illness. The path requires tolerance, respect, understanding, trust, and harmony. Support the young generation and live with love, helping others and practicing conscious renunciation. Work to harmonize with all, respecting every place of worship and removing ego. Practice leads to happiness and the merging of individual consciousness into the cosmic. "Karma is in your hands; you can do what you want. It is your decision. But the result, the fruit of your action, is not in your hands." "Tolerance for T, respect for R, U for understanding, T again for trust in God, and H for harmony. That is the truth." Filming location: Vienna, Austria DVD 491

Highlights

Awakening within a human body

3:00 - 3:57 | From 1 Dec 2008
The heart is central to spiritual development and the awakening of divine joy through Kundalini. Destiny is the fruit of karma; every situation has meaning. Face destiny to be free from it. The heart feels everything quicker than the intellect. A divine light resides within it, the light of the Ātmā. Every creature with a heart carries God's manifestation. Negative energy produces desires and fear, while desirelessness brings true happiness and richness. This body is a wondrous creation where God resides and speaks. No heart is empty of the divine presence. Harsh words wound the heart, and only love and mantra can heal it. When Kundalini awakens and touches the heart, it overflows with devotion and happiness, leading to bhāva samādhi. This state is the highest joy and a healing process for the body. Understanding the meaning of words in prayer or song allows them to penetrate the consciousness and induce this samādhi. Sound, light, and energy from mantras have a healing effect, traveling through the nāḍīs to awaken divine love. "When there is a problem, everyone remembers God." "The happiest and richest person is one who has no desires, neither physically nor materially." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 502

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
