Around the world - Opening of new YIDL center in Ptuj, Slovenia
We mark 25 years of teaching Yoga in Daily Life here, a voluntary mission from an authentic Indian school. We secured our own space, now becoming a blessed ashram. We have brought yoga to schools, libraries, and communities for all ages through dedicated effort. Yoga is ancient, a science of body, mind, and soul, intertwined with Āyurveda as natural knowledge for health. It is not passive meditation but active practice for concentration and peace. Its universal message is recognized internationally. We must return to natural living, embracing yoga and Āyurveda for well-being, seeing all cultures and people as one family under God.
"Yoga is the science of body, mind, and soul."
"Vasudhaiva Kuṭumbakam,' which means the whole world is one family."

Karma and liberation
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."

Vajra Nadi
The Vajranāḍī is the root of immunity and the regulator of prāṇa. Yogic science describes a network of 72,000 nāḍīs through which prāṇa, or life energy, flows. Modern medical science often conflicts with this view, denying the existence of these channels and the central nāḍīs: Iḍā, Piṅgalā, and Suṣumnā. Blockages in these energy pathways cause disease. The Vajranāḍī is crucial; it functions like an electrical earth, balancing the system and controlling all other nāḍīs. Its health is governed from the Maṇipūra Cakra at the navel. When the Vajranāḍī is weak, prāṇa flow diminishes, leading to blockages and illness. Prāṇāyāma purifies these channels. Specific practices like Vajrāsana and toe movements strengthen the Vajranāḍī, which is vital for immunity. The sound and nectar of creation originate from the navel. All bodily functions are guided by prāṇa, which is the essence of life.
"Guru caraṇo me yād sat tīrat hai, wo Veda purāṇa me gāte hai."
"The Vajranāḍī in the body controls all the nerves, 72,000, and that functions like earthing for electricity."

Awakening of muladhar
Chakras are energy centers where consciousness resides, defining character and problems. Your destiny (prārabdha) is created by past karma before your body forms. You control your present karma through action, speech, thought, and influence, but once acted upon, deeds become destiny governing future life and all current problems. The Mūlādhāra Chakra is the root foundation of consciousness based on that karma. It is the earth element, colored red for energy and Mother Consciousness. Its awakening brings safety, wisdom, and pleasurable energy, not physical sensations. The chakra's symbols include a four-petaled lotus representing the four ways life enters the world, an elephant symbolizing wisdom and prosperity, an inverted triangle for energy flow, and a coiled snake representing past, present, and future karmas—the dormant Kuṇḍalinī Śakti. Śiva (consciousness) and Śakti (nature) seek union here. Exercises like Bhujaṅgāsana and Śalabhāsana activate this chakra, strengthening the back and influencing the root center for physical and mental balance.
"As long as you are not doing anything, it is still under your control."
"The awakening of the Kuṇḍalinī means wisdom. You become very wise, you become self-confident."
