The yogi's sleep is a state of yogic consciousness where wakefulness is known within sleep, and day is known within night. It is a sleep without support, upon a white stone slab. In that sleep, one knows the day within the night. It is a sleep of knowledge, leading to the state of Nirvana. Through this practice, one meets the Supreme Person. The true form is revealed when one meets that Person. The guru's assembly reveals the true knowledge. The body is without a country; the divine person is wondrous. One who worships in this way is absorbed in the guru. "Us nindrāme jagratā jāne, punirātri me divasu jñānī hai." "Deha binā deśikānī hai, Deva Puruṣa dabhuta havāliyā."

Yoga is the science of body, mind, consciousness, and soul, a universal principle of balance and harmony. Our subject is Kuṇḍalinī and the chakras, the hidden powers in human consciousness. The chakras are centers that receive and circulate cosmic energy through the body. We possess five bodies or layers: the physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and causal bodies. The causal body holds desires and the potential for divine bliss. The soul is a collection of karma and qualities; it does not dissolve until self-realization is attained. Chakras must be purified through mantra and practice for the Kuṇḍalinī to awaken safely. Without proper guidance, this awakening can cause imbalance and distress. Life is love, and love is God. Creating friendship and walking the path with love is essential. The world is a field of karma for development, yet one must remain detached like a lotus in muddy water. The first chakra, Mūlādhāra, is the root foundation. Its red color represents concentrated energy and the earth element. The lotus symbolizes remaining untouched by worldly temptations while fulfilling one's duty. The four petals represent the four aims of human life: dharma (duty), artha (wealth), kāma (righteous desires and progeny), and mokṣa (liberation). "Yoga without spirituality is like a body without a soul; no achievement can take place without spirituality." "If you protect your dharma, dharma will protect you." Filming location: Australia

A mantra is that which satisfies and liberates the mind. The mind is never satisfied, like a bowl made of mind that gold cannot fill. It is like a ghost that demands constant work; without a task, it becomes destructive. The mantra gives the mind a steady job, trapping it in satisfaction. It is a sentence that slowly transforms us from within, cleansing darkness, problems, and doubts. The mind becomes tranquil, and meditation arises. The mantra guides us toward our aim of reuniting with our origin, the Absolute Divine. Mantras have two parts: one expresses your wish, the other is a prayer. The essence is: "Please vanish all darkness from my being, and let your light come into me." Light is knowledge; darkness is sorrow and ignorance. Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness, a path to spirituality. Its meaning is union—the oneness of individual consciousness with the universal. Our inner thirst is to return to that endless joy. Human life is given for this self-realization. To achieve it, follow ethical and spiritual principles and maintain the body through healthy living and disciplined practice. Yoga is a scientific system for the well-being of body, mind, and soul, leading to harmony and health. It begins with gentle, daily physical practice. Discipline is essential; start now. Life is given to enjoy, not to suffer. The body needs gentle care, not force or competition. "Please vanish all darkness from my being, and let your light come into me." "Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness. It is a primary step, a philosophy, a path to spirituality." Filming location: New York, USA
