Science of chakras
Yoga is the union of individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness, achieved through harmony and balance. The cosmic energy governs the universe, and this principle of union was discovered by ancient yogis. The individual soul is a spark of the divine light, present in all life. We originate from the cosmic sound and are composed of the five elements. Our journey involves many births, guided by karma, as the soul moves through forms and relations. The human body contains dormant energy centers called chakras, connected by 72,000 channels. Three primary channels—Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna—regulate energy, mind, and activity, converging at key points to form the chakras. These centers correspond to the elements and levels of consciousness, from the earthly Muladhara to the divine Sahasrara. Activating these centers through practice leads toward liberation.
"Yoga means union—the union of the individual consciousness with the cosmic consciousness."
"What is existing in the universe is existing in your body."

Prayer for peace
A silent prayer for global peace was offered. This practice is Mauna Yoga, an inner prayer conducted in mental silence. Governments have advised quiet in places of gathering. The prayer is directed inwardly to the divine for all beings worldwide. This is a time for universal brotherhood and collective prayer for peace. Practitioners should maintain personal care and positive thought. The global community of practitioners continues through online connection. Service is provided selflessly, as all sustenance comes from the divine. Therefore, one should act without fear or anger, sustained by faith.
"All religions should join together. We all should pray to God that all humans, all animals, and this whole globe remain in a very clear, peaceful atmosphere."
"Yoga is for harmony, peace, and understanding. One should not think negatively of a person."

The Grandeur of Bhajans and Divine Remembrance
The grandeur of bhajans and divine remembrance fills the gathering.
The session was intentionally brief, yet it overflowed with spiritual potency. A request was made to Puṣpā, and one bhajan was offered with the possibility of another if it pleased the divine. The sisters sang with exceptional devotion and skill; their voices became vessels for the sacred and their singing pleased greatly. Such bhajans are not ordinary songs; they are pathways to divine remembrance. An introduction to the deeper significance of these bhajans will be given. This teaching will manifest tomorrow or the day after, illuminating the essence of devotional singing for all seekers. Life presents dualities like heat and cold, comfort and discomfort. Both sides of experience are embraced without resistance, and blessings are extended to all with the words ‘all the best’. The bhajans were very nice, and today is alright. The closing chant invoked holy names—Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān, Devpurījī, Mādhavānandajī—with reverence. Satya Sanātana Dharma was proclaimed as the eternal truth. The core teaching of non-doership arose: Nāhaṃ Kartā, the self is not the doer. Prabhudīp Kartā, Mahāprabhudīp Kartā, the divine alone acts. Only That Kevalam exists. Hari Om. Victory to Viśvarānandajī Gurudeva.
"Today’s session was brief; I did not intend to do only a little, but the magnificent bhajans from our sisters were truly great."
"Hari Om, Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān, Devpurījī Mahārāja Devakī, Mādhavānandajī Bhagavānakī, Satya Sanātana Dharmakī, Nāhaṃ Kartā Prabhudīp Kartā Mahāprabhudīp Kartā He Kevalam, Hari Om."

Know that You are a human
The ideal of lifelong marriage and natural living contrasts with modern artificiality. Marriage should be a complete, singular union—remarriage is discouraged. True relationship persists beyond death. Modern culture, however, promotes disorder, with women particularly manipulated into artificiality through fashion and cosmetics, losing their natural dignity and noble roles as mothers, wives, and daughters. Nature rejects this artifice, as even animals react negatively. Human life is precious and should not be wasted in conflict or serial relationships. Our purpose is to serve, love, meditate, and realize God. Remember you are human; this neutralizes negative animalistic tendencies like anger and jealousy. Your greatest enemy is taking offense, which stems from a lack of wisdom to understand others. Unite and open your heart, for universal principles like love belong to all.
"Even when death takes my life, I will not cease to be faithful."
"Your greatest enemy, and stupidity, and ignorance is taking offense."
