The aim of human life
Public lecture with Vishwaguruji from Martin, Slovakia. Yoga means uniting, harmonizing and balancing. Our earth is a living planet, in each and every cell of the body there is an immense amount of energy. The aim of the human life is to achieve liberation. Nourishment, breath, behavior and practicing yoga exercises, are the main points if we would like to be healthy and keep ourselves pure.

Practice and try to purify your karma
Spiritual practice requires vigilance and faith to remain uncorrupted. Some individuals spread negativity like infection, causing others to fall from wisdom. Stay close to the Guru's shelter for protection, as some grains avoid being ground by staying near the mill's central pillar. Do not carry the burdens of others; those who create trouble for others bear their own karma. Your duty persists regardless of hour. Share the pure teachings without manipulation, as the fruit reveals the quality of the tree. Practice diligently and purify your own karma.
"Between these two stones, played no one remained complete." "Whoever does that will suffer. Why are you crying?"

The truth is tapas
The Kumbha pot symbolizes the nectar of immortality, a truth within spiritual practice. During the Kumbh Melā, bathing at the sacred confluence during an auspicious constellation cleanses karma and bestows blessings. I took the ritual bath for all devotees, transferring the merits for their health and realization. The immense gathering generates a collective spiritual energy that awakens inner strength. However, the spiritual path is often obscured by false claims of psychic powers and siddhis. Many pretend to see auras or tell futures, exploiting pure-hearted seekers. Such lies are a great sin and a major obstacle. True spiritual power manifests naturally through presence and goodness, not for show or gain. Do not be deceived by those offering magical solutions or creating fear. Your focus must remain on genuine devotion and practice under a true lineage. Expectations lead to disappointment; be like the steadfast banyan tree, providing shelter without attachment. The ultimate goal is self-realization, ending all suffering.
"Satya barabar tap nahi, jhoot barabar pāp—there is no austerity more than truth, and no greater sin than to lie."
"Be that banyan tree which welcomes everyone, is never overwhelmed, and never sad."

Meditation with Swamiji
Morning program with Vishwaguruji from Atlanta, Georgia, Guided meditation.
Master should have equal vision
A master's teaching adapts to the student's background but arises from a place of non-discrimination. Teaching varies based on a student's inherent culture, like learning to cook at home versus from scratch. Language also shapes the delivery, as perfect translation of meaning is difficult. However, the true master holds no distinction in heart, like a sun shining on all. The story of Eklavya illustrates this: though formally rejected, his devotion to his guru as a statue made him a great archer. The master teaches from within, beyond speech, through divine love. Disciples who perceive favoritism are mistaken. The master knows each student's needs and administers many tests. True service is to see oneself not as a successor, but as eternally serving the guru.
"Love does not require any words. Love does not need any explanation."
"The master is like a sun, and the disciples are like all of us who benefit from the sunlight."
