Awakening within a human body
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."

Around the world - Yoga from Presov
A guided yoga practice for advanced students cultivates relaxation and inner awareness.
Begin in a seated posture with calming breath and mantras. Systematically relax each part of the body through focused awareness and breath, releasing from the feet to the head. This deep relaxation prepares the body for asana. Practice gentle stretches and poses like the cradle pose and a twisting backbend to release the spine and sides. Advance to seated postures including a bow shape and Cow's Face pose, emphasizing breath, alignment, and holding the positions. Conclude with breath observation and a breathing exercise focusing on the nostrils to clear energetic channels. Integrate the effects of the practice in final relaxation.
"With each inhalation, prāṇa, the vital cosmic energy, is drawn into my body."
"Prāṇāyāma is a breathing exercise. Throughout the entire breath, remain focused on the nostrils."

Around the world - Hidden beauty
The highest principle is non-violence, meaning no killing. Every soul is a divine cell; all creatures of the universe are my cells. Therefore, love them, feed them, and do not eat them. Humans are meant to be protectors, not destroyers. Consider a garden with a fence to protect it from wild animals. If the fence itself destroys the garden, it fails its purpose. Our duty is to protect the environment, nature, and all life. Destroying the world contradicts our divine role.
"The highest principle is Ahiṃsā, which is Allah."
"When the last tree is cut down and the last fish dies, oh man, then you will realize that you cannot eat your dollars."
A Journey of Remembrance and Reverence
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."

Vegetarian cooking lesson 5
Falahārī nutrition uses food in its perfect, natural state. This way of eating brings vitality and health. The diet emphasizes raw fruits, vegetables, and herbs, though simple preparations are shared. Personal adaptation is key; one should feel free without strict rules. The focus is on fresh, whole ingredients and their inherent goodness. Meals are crafted with mindfulness and simplicity. The nourishment is deeply satisfying.
"Everything grown in nature is already perfect."
"The greatest gift for me is that I became a vegetarian."
