What you give with love is worth more than any money

Kuṇḍalinī is the coiled energy of consciousness, symbolized by the circle which contains all creation. Everything in the universe is round, from planets to drops of water, representing the completeness of zero, or Pūrṇa. This energy is our inherent potential and destiny, stored as latent impressions from many lives. A true blessing, like the sacred tilak, can rewrite these karmic prints and transform one's future, as illustrated by the story of Sudāmā and Krishna. The awakening of this energy is not a physical process but a spiritual unfolding of consciousness, where prāṇa and apāna unite within the subtle body. This union leads to mastery over all states of awareness, culminating in supreme joy and liberation. The guidance of a true guru, who possesses divine vision, is essential to navigate this inner universe and realize this map within. "Everything is round. The universe is round. The earth is round. Everything is round." "When the kuṇḍalinī is awakened, you master the yoga nidrā, then on all three levels you become one." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

You have to find the way

The inner world of consciousness is a vast, undiscovered forest. Consciousness resides within energy, which dwells in endless space, Ananta. Within consciousness lies our knowledge and intellect. When intellect intervenes, reality often disappears. The Ājñā Chakra is the crossroads where all desires and intellect converge. It is the border between human and divine consciousness, the seat of command and discernment. Intellect merely judges, while Viveka, or common sense, offers true guidance. This chakra presents profound dilemmas requiring decisive wisdom beyond logic. "Consciousness is within the energy. Energy is within the space, and space is within itself. That’s called Ananta, endless." "The border between our physical consciousness and higher consciousness: Ājñā Cakra... If we concentrate and create a knowledge or feeling toward the higher, then the Ājñā Chakra will guide us very comfortably." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Concentrate all your energy on your aim

The path from Kali Yuga to Satya Yuga requires spiritual education and strong families. Modern education pushes humans away from spirituality, and without it, we become like animals. Religion represents the universe's unchanging principles and develops our best qualities. We must respect our elders, as serving them is divine service. The economy now consumes people, draining their energy. We must value every human being regardless of origin, fostering global brotherhood. Our short life spans are consumed by cycles from school to hospital. We must find the eternal truth within. Chanting mantras purifies our five bodily sheaths through vibration. Yoga is the father of all religions, a practice for health and spiritual alignment. True dedication requires total concentration without compromise. Every element of creation has a purpose, as illustrated by the disciple who helped create Ayurveda. We must realize our inner reality without lying to ourselves. "Without religion, humans will become again like wild animals in the forest." "Yoga is not a part of any religion. All religions are a part of yoga." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Sadhana is a spiritual tonic

Sādhanā is the essential practice for health, peace, and spiritual development. Discipline is required; neglecting it leaves one stagnant with problems. Ancient seers lived in direct relation to divine truth, and their research remains foundational. The external world has not changed, but our thinking and desires have, leading to excessive collection of possessions that harm health. Modern furnishings like carpets and sofas collect dust and cause physical ailments. Time must be utilized fully, as wasting it is a sin. The mind cannot and should not be forced to stop, as that indicates illness. Meditation must be learned from an experienced master; improper teaching leads to harm. True spiritual experience is rare and requires an open heart, not mere attendance. Practice yoga as a scientific system for two and a half hours daily for happiness and longevity. Discipline brings joy; ignorance is our enemy. "Wasting time is a sin." "Meditation must be learned from a person who has experience in meditation. Only a master can teach you meditation."

Let us become the example

Yoga is a universal science of body, mind, and soul for health and harmony, uniting rather than dividing. It is not a dogma or sport but a practical path accessible to all, requiring consistent practice. Its widespread adoption reflects a global recognition of its benefits for individual and societal well-being. However, its essence risks dilution through commercialization and misuse without proper attribution. True practice fosters inner peace, which radiates outward, improving relationships and community. A disciplined life aligned with yoga includes self-sufficiency, like cooking and cultivation, reconnecting humans with nature. This conscious living is the foundation for transforming a troubled age into one of truth and harmony. "Yoga is a science of body, mind, consciousness, and soul." "Yoga doesn’t think of the individual only, but it thinks of the universal."

How chakras are working

The journey with Kuṇḍalinī is endless because it leads to the endless Brahman. This divine energy guides us, but we must understand the structure of human emotion, mind, awareness, consciousness, intellect, and soul. These principles escort the individual existence to a certain border; then their duty is finished. Karma is the highest principle. Even God is bound by karma. All incarnations came to serve and to finish many karmas from many lives. Therefore, worship karma so it does not lead to trouble. Respect the principles carrying the soul, as one maintains an aeroplane for the pilot. The body's glands and plexuses form a divine network. Different chakras are associated with specific tastes: Sahasrāra is tasteless, Ājñā is sweet, Viśuddhi is sour, Anāhata is astringent, Svādhiṣṭhāna is salty, and Mūlādhāra is bitter. The heart is where God resides; love is God and has no boundary. The human intestine is long, designed for vegetarian food; eating meat can lead to difficulties. Divine treasures, like the cobra's jewel, are elusive and dissolve like hormones. Maintain humility and kindness so that love remains. "Even God has to surrender to karma." "Love is God, and God is love." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Inner Beauty

The journey from individual soul to supreme consciousness requires disciplined progression through the body and mind. The body is essential; without it, nothing is possible, so we must care for it to achieve self-realization. The mind, however, is like a restless monkey that can destroy our inner garden of peace, love, and beauty. We cannot control the mind because we have not overcome attachment, the sense of "mine." This failure stems from two inner forces: hope, which is a lifelong walking stick, and craving, a destructive thirst. These internal "cheaters"—lust, anger, greed—reside within us. You are the king of the body-city; do not become a slave to your mind and senses. When this awareness awakens, Kuṇḍalinī awakening—true self-knowledge—occurs, bringing divine contentment. The Guru's grace guides this inner realization. "Mind cannot be controlled. Do not try to kill the mind; the mind will kill you." "Mamatva hi bandhana kā kāraṇa hai—the attachment, 'It is mine.' This is the cause." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Chakras and Tattvas

The chakras and their mantras are keys to harmonizing energy. Language divides, but truth unifies beyond it. Each chakra has a bija mantra: Sahasrara and Ajna share Om, Vishuddhi has Ham, Anahata has Yam, Manipura has Ram, Svadhisthana has Vam, and Muladhara has Lam. These sounds are heard in deep meditation as energy awakens. Tattvas are the elements within the chakras that circulate and purify karma. The highest tattva is Guru Tattva, surpassing all others. It is pure knowledge and the main function within every element. Understanding these chakras and tattvas is essential before working with Kundalini energy. The body's glands correspond to these centers, and their balance is crucial for spiritual awakening. "These mantras exert their influence in their particular areas." "The highest Tattva is the Guru Tattva." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Iccha Shakti

The Power of Will and Divine Grace Whatever you wish, by God’s grace, nothing is impossible. But before expressing a wish, know its nature. God fulfills all desires, good or bad. Therefore, cultivate discrimination first. Without discrimination, desire leads to suffering. A monkey wished for honey, but got a cobra and died. The wish was fulfilled, but without knowledge, it brought death. Humans often desire harmful things. Use intellect to analyze wishes before pursuing them. Spiritual wishes are certainly fulfilled by grace. Pārvatī asked Śiva for a simple teaching. Śiva replied: “I tell my own experience: devotion to God is the ultimate truth.” In Kali Yuga, repeating God’s name is the support to cross the ocean of ignorance. Willpower is a great power, but must be guided by wisdom. Energy is one, manifesting in many forms; use it wisely. With clear will and divine grace, all good is attainable. "Jo icchā karahī manamai Hari kṛpā durlabh nahī̃." "Umā kahu anubhava apnā, Hari bhajana eka satya." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The origin of suffering

Fear arises from ignorance and creates the karma that binds us. We are the light of the Self, yet we identify with the body and lose our true nature. Karma is not an external force but is created from our own experiences and ignorance. For example, we see a rope and mistake it for a snake, generating fear. That impression of the snake, though false, can last a lifetime. Fear resides in the subtle self, not the physical body, and weakens our confidence and strength. Stories of ghosts in graveyards persist because of our memories and attachments, not because spirits remain. Our stored fears from many lives manifest in the body, affecting glands and hormones. Loss of self-confidence disrupts these systems. Horrible dreams often stem from subconscious impressions, not direct karma. True awakening involves a healthy body and nervous system, free from the paralysis of fear. We must identify and release our fears, understanding they belong to the past. "Karma is created within our own self out of ignorance. That creates fear in us." "When fear is gone, all these karmic things are more or less gone." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The Bindu Chakra and the Nectar of Immortality

The Bindu Chakra is a source of nectar for spiritual practice. Understanding the body's energy is essential for committed seekers, not hobbyists. Kundalini practices are safe and pleasant. The Bindu, meaning a dot, is at the top of the head where the hair whorl is. Spiritual capacity has no gender; both are equal. Nectar is produced there, influenced by the traditional practice of tying the hair to create scalp tension. For those without hair, applying sandalwood oil works. This nectar typically flows to digestion. To receive it, the tongue must catch it via the Khechari Mudra technique, pulling the tongue back. This is a long practice; an adept demonstrated it, experiencing an intensely sweet taste and perfect health as proof. This nectar is a quality, not a quantity. Like only bees can make honey, only those with past merits and practice can attain this knowledge. We possess this potential but often cannot access it. Discipline and the guru's guidance are required to awaken this awareness and achieve rejuvenation through such techniques, not through superficial retreats. Solve problems through healthy living, not escapism like alcohol. Practice makes a master. "Bindu means a dot or a drop." "In our body, we have everything. We have nectar, but we can't use it."

Meanings of Kundalini

The universe is manifested through sound, or Nāda, which is the resonance of creation. This primordial sound is energy, and it flows through all existence, including the human body via the cakras and glands. This energy is called Kuṇḍalinī, a complete science of body, mind, intellect, and consciousness. Kuṇḍalinī has multiple meanings: it is a pool where past karmas reside dormant, and it is a circle, representing infinity and the round nature of all energy. The fundamental geometry of existence consists of the circle, the triangle, and the right angle, which channel and purify energy. This energy holds the universe together; it is the yoga that unites and balances. Everything originates from and returns to a state of completeness, or Pūrṇa. Awakening this inner energy leads to freedom from physical, mental, and emotional suffering. "Through that resonance, energy expands. This energy flows in the cakras, in the glands." "Everything comes from Pūrṇa, everything exists in Pūrṇa, and when you take something out of Pūrṇa, both remain Pūrṇa." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The Divine Symphony: Sound, Chakras, and Consciousness

All creation resonates with divine consciousness. Science cannot replicate nature's design, evident in a single drop of blood. Every entity contains God's life; all creatures and plants are beloved children. Experiments show plants react to care and threat, and potatoes emit vibrations of fear, proving all living beings experience it. Meditation creates an energy field connecting to the body's chakras. Yogic anatomy describes 72,000 nerves, each with its own resonance, carrying consciousness. Chakras have distinct qualities and locations from the feet to the spine, representing earthly, vegetative, animal, and human energies. Humans face a choice: to ascend or be pulled down by lower impulses. Two foundational chakras, Mūlādhāra and Svādhiṣṭhāna, are difficult to overcome, representing the border between human and animal nature. Divine energy uplifts, while opposing energy fights to pull one down. The Maṇipūra chakra is powerful, where prāṇa and apāna meet and samādhi can occur. The Anāhata chakra holds both divine love and physical passion. The Viśuddhi chakra filters energy; successful purification allows energy to rise to the Sahasrāra. Sound vibration, or Nāda, is key. It originates in the Maṇipūra, moves through the heart as Paśyantī, and manifests as Vaikharī at the vocal cords. The tongue is clever but connected to the lower chakras. Pure sound ascends through the central channel to the crown chakra, spreading resonance. This process leads to meditation. Ultimate truth is Satyam Śivam Sundaram—truth, consciousness, and beauty. This is the embodied universe. Chanting harmoniously guides awareness upward. "Prem is the divine bhakti that you can also call madhura. Madhura means sweet." "Oṃ is the seed of the universe. Out of that seed, everything is manifested." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

How Kaliyuga will change

The transition from Kali Yuga to Satya Yuga is an awakening of consciousness, rooted in divine lineage and parental duty. Our spiritual lineage is named for the Alaknanda River, the abode Alakāpurī, and the Al Capuri cave, evidenced by the miraculous Devapurījī. The shift to Satya Yuga is not destruction but a change in awareness, where mercy becomes the root of dharma and pride the root of sin. Universal worship must be projected onto parents, who are the first God. The mother's influence is paramount; her words and sattvic food shape the child's subconscious. Women hold the power to transform the age. Parents must model children rightly before the material hardens. The three glories are the virtuous woman, the saint, and the hero; the three shames are the cheater, the cruel, and the coward. Modern permissiveness spoils children; they need wisdom and love, not just wealth. A parable tells of a forest destroyed because a tree provided the handle for the axe. Our future is prepared by our current actions in raising children. "Mercy, dayā, will awake. Because dayā is the foundation, the roots, the cause of dharma." "Your children don't need your money. Your children need your wisdom. Children don't need your toys; they need your love." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

We should respect Time

The river of time flows from the sacred source, connecting all to the supreme power. We gather on Guru Pūrṇimā to take account of our spiritual year. Time does not wait; to ignore it is a sin. A farmer who neglects his field finds the birds have eaten his crop. Our life is that field, sown with good karmas of devotion and knowledge. If we do not protect them, negative qualities will destroy the harvest. Examine what has changed since last year. Have you lost your practice or devotion? What is gone cannot be caught back. We are now far out in the ocean of saṃsāra. Satsaṅg preserves, while bad association destroys like a prepared bomb. There is no shelter elsewhere in this vast expanse. You must return to the boat. Protect what remains of your life through dedicated practice and service. Make a firm resolve this day to grow in your spiritual endeavor. "Time is given to us very preciously, but why do we not respect it?" "Past time we cannot catch, even if we fly in an airplane. But what remains, we must try to save." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Guru Purnima Satsang

Guru Pūrṇimā is a remembrance of the sacred relationship between the self and the Self. This tradition honors the guru, who imparts spiritual life and guides one to the true treasure within. The disciple offers homage, and the guru gives blessings. The full moon symbolizes purity and completeness. The sun represents the Guru, the source of light. The moon reflects that light but must not mistake itself for the source. The ultimate aim is not merely to reflect the light but to merge with it. The annual celebration is a time for saṅkalpa, a resolve. One reviews the past year's spiritual commitment and makes a new vow for the year ahead. The guru's grace is vital for progress. A core saṅkalpa is to attain self-realization in this life and to return with compassion to serve humanity, helping to turn the Kali Yuga into Satya Yuga. This resolve addresses the current age, where profit drives the manipulation of essentials like food. Practical guidance includes learning to cook, growing one's own food, and moving to the countryside to preserve culture. Spiritual power is needed to transform the age. The disciple's devotion and the guru's blessing together make this possible. "The sun is a symbol of the Guru. It does not borrow its light; it has the light inside and gives the light." "Our saṅkalpa... shall be: serve, love, meditate, realize, and come into the next life as a holy saint to serve humanity and turn the Kali Yuga into Satya Yuga." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

GuruPurnima2015 Musical recording.

What is Guru Tattva?

The essence of Guru Pūrṇimā is the Guru principle, which is the source of liberation. Great saints and yogis exist, their subtle bodies transparent, able to move through rock. The universe is composed of space, energy, and consciousness, a trinity harmonized by Yoga. Among the six principles—earth, water, fire, air, space, and consciousness—one is the Guru Tattva. Liberation comes solely from the Guru's blessing and mercy. The Guru is the bliss of Brahman, the supreme reality within. The Guru possesses equal vision for all disciples, seeing the one unmoving reality in everyone. Worldly desires and problems are the confusion of saṃsāra, without ultimate sense. The sun gives life, yet one cannot illuminate the sun; similarly, one must recognize the source. "Liberation, mokṣa, comes from the blessing of the Guru." "The Guru loves his disciples equally. The problem is that the disciples have a problem."

Control your bad qualities

The practice of inner and outer yoga is essential. Outer yoga is social conduct and self-confidence, beginning with the awareness of being human to prevent inhuman acts. A human should not kill; adopting a vegetarian lifestyle avoids causing animal suffering, whose fear enters our bodies. A human is born as a protector, containing divine energy to be awakened. Inner and outer yoga must balance. Yoga is skill in action; positive actions yield positive results. Make the resolve that your existence is service to all. Inner yoga requires careful self-observation without temptation. The aim is to become one with God. Obstacles include impurities, distractions, and the veil, as well as the three fires of suffering: from the physical world, from human conflicts, and from astral-rooted illness. Prayer is the remedy. The five prevalent demons are passion, anger, greed, attachment, and ego. Cultivate opposing divine qualities: righteousness, compassion, devotion, knowledge, renunciation, and detachment. Greed leads to ruin; do not depend on others. Perform outer discipline to subdue the negative forces and awaken the positive ones. "Yogaḥ karmasu kauśalam—yoga is skill in action." "Śuk diyā śuk hot hai, duk diyā duk hoī. If you give happiness to every creature, you will receive positive treatment in return."

The Inner Yoga

Yoga is not merely postures and breath control; it is the disciplined path to inner peace. Physical practice maintains the body, which is essential as the vessel for inner work. Daily discipline in mantra, meditation, and service is a necessary duty amidst life's obligations. True progress requires loyalty to the teachings and understanding their essence, not just intellectual knowledge. Many fail by not realizing the Master's truth or by rejecting advice meant for their growth. The path involves both outer practice (Bahiraṅga Yoga) and inner practice (Antaraṅga Yoga). Inner development confronts obstacles like impurity, distraction, and ego, cultivating qualities like compassion and knowledge. Subtle inner energy is stronger than the physical. True achievement comes from inner awareness and consistent practice, not theory alone. "Give advice and knowledge to those who can accept and digest it." "By repeating the name of God, our sins will be destroyed... like when we walk back and forth on a path, grass will not grow there." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Practicing Khatu Pranam

The practice of Khatu Pranam integrates physical postures with holistic well-being. The blissful posture, Ananda Asana, is for relaxation without fear. Research into posture names reveals their origins in nature. The sequence draws inspiration from a place known for its colorful, cool stones and an atmosphere of communal harmony. This practice was developed and refined over decades. Specific postures strengthen the back and abdominal muscles and improve circulation. The practice benefits the respiratory system and enhances immunity by affecting the relevant energy channel. Regular practice reduces muscular stiffness and promotes a stress-free life. It harmonizes body, mind, and intellect, leading to greater self-awareness and peace. Consistent personal experimentation with the sequence is encouraged to observe its comprehensive effects. "Ānanda means bliss. Ānanda means happiness. Ānanda means pleasure. Ānanda means without tension." "Kaṭhūpraṇām has a very positive effect on the body. Physical, mental, social, and spiritual, which bring calmness and peace."

Recharging spiritual energy

The foundation of spiritual life rests upon four pillars: nourishment, environment, conduct, and contemplation. What you consume shapes your mind, for food transforms into the energy that guides thought. Therefore, eat consciously. Your environment must be peaceful to allow regeneration; avoid places with sound pollution and distraction that agitate the mind. Your behavior should be respectful and kind. Your contemplation must be purified, for the mind's fluctuations are the obstacle. A calm environment and sattvic nourishment lead to calm speech and mind. Desire is itself a suffering and creates disease. True spiritual education is a living, continuous flow from master to disciple, not a static doctrine. We gather here to recharge through meditation and positive connection, mastering the senses so the intellect, not the tongue, makes our decisions. "Āhāra means the diet, whatever we eat, because every kind of food has its speciality." "Therefore, āhāra and vihāra: where we should go and where we should not go." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

Surrender expands your limits

Yoga is a holistic science for achieving moksha, or absolute freedom from all bondage. The International Day of Yoga, celebrated globally, promotes a common protocol including prayer, asanas, pranayama, and meditation, aiming for universal welfare. Yoga's goal is not merely physical health but infinite bliss, knowledge, and power. This is pursued through four main paths. Jnana Yoga is the path of intellect to realize the Self. Raja Yoga, or Ashtanga Yoga, is the path of willpower through eight limbs leading to samadhi. Bhakti Yoga is the path of mastering emotions through sublimation, not suppression, transforming base desires into selfless love. Karma Yoga is the path of detached action, performing duties without attachment to results by maintaining inner silence. All actions, propelled by the three gunas—tamas, rajas, and sattva—must be purified. The essence is to act from a state of inner peace, seeing non-action in action, making yoga a way of life. This collective practice can transform society through renunciation and service. "Yoga is a way of life. Yoga is a science of holistic living." "You have the right to action alone, never to its fruits. Do all actions unattached." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

Yog means union

Yoga is the union of the individual soul with the supreme consciousness. This principle is as ancient as existence itself, not merely a practice of postures or breath. A significant global recognition occurred with the United Nations declaring an International Day of Yoga. This marks a pivotal moment, said to signify the end of a dark age and the dawn of an enlightened era. The essential work now is to live yoga in every thought and action, spreading this consciousness worldwide. All techniques are merely paths leading to that ultimate union. The cohesive force that binds the universe and the elements within the body is that same yoga. True understanding comes not from solitary effort but through the guidance of the tradition and the guru's grace. Disregarding this lineage leads to failure, while following it leads to the goal. "Yoga is that which is joined. The jīvātmā and paramātmā were separated due to ignorance. Through yoga, they become one again." "Gurur brahmā gurur viṣṇu gurur devo maheśvaraḥ, gurur sākṣāt paraṁ brahma tasmai śrī gurave namaḥ." Filming location: Jaipur, Rajasthan, India

Vishwagurujis speech on IDY conference

Yoga is the foundational culture arising from sacred practices. The primordial sound Om, present in all traditions, is the source of creation and the essence of yoga. This universal science unites the individual with the cosmic self. Culture is built from these spiritual impressions, which protect the family, society, and world. India is the cradle of this dharma, given freely to all. True practice surpasses theory; one must embody the teachings. The current age sees a loss of these cultural foundations while others adopt them. Yoga is not mere physical posture but disciplined action and mental practice. Intellectual education begins in the parental lap, not through devices, for children inherit their parents' spiritual impressions. Nourishment dictates consciousness; a vegetarian life is essential for environmental protection, peace, and purifying the subtle body. Many commercial distortions of yoga exist, requiring discernment. Uphold culture through pure conduct, diet, recreation, and thought. "From impressions comes culture, and from culture comes the protection of the family, society, and world." "As is the food, so is the mind. As is the water you drink, so will be your speech."

IDY in Prague

Yoga should become an integral part of everyday life. Ancient India developed profound knowledge of the world and the self. Yoga is a path requiring intellectual understanding, practical application, and direct experience of the results. Its practice, including chanting which deepens the breath, should be realized in all actions and interactions. A tradition of teaching this system has been established for decades. Events celebrating this path bring people together in practice and community, fostering awareness and personal well-being. "I have been practicing yoga in my daily life for the second year now. It is a lifestyle I truly enjoy." "It is a good feeling to be doing something for oneself. It brings a good mood and lifts a person up." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

Common Yoga Protocol

Yoga is a cultural heritage that calms the restless mind and moves one forward on the path of world peace. It is not merely exercise but a practice developed through the human body, mind, and soul. International recognition formalized its global celebration. The practice begins with loosening exercises to increase microcirculation and release tension. Proceeding through standing, sitting, prone, and supine postures, each asana brings specific benefits for stability, flexibility, and health. The session culminates in complete relaxation and prāṇāyāma to purify energy channels and induce tranquility. One should always avoid postures beyond personal limits or during specific health conditions. "Yoga takes away the stress of a stressed person and makes him stress-free." "The main purpose of this Prāṇāyāma is to purify the principal channels of energy."

The beginning

The universe is the body of the Divine Mother, holding the supreme consciousness like a golden embryo within an egg. The divine energy of yoga harmonizes the mother and the child. The primordial will is expressed in the Vedic declaration, "I am one, and now I will multiply." This creative impulse resonates as the sacred sound Oṁ, generating the elements and the trinity of manifestor, protector, and creator. Countless souls are created from this resonance, descending through cycles of time called Yugas. Human life is the final milestone among 8.4 million life forms. The human body, a network of 72,000 channels, is governed by three principal nerves controlling emotion, activity, and consciousness. The purpose is to realize one's origin through ethical living and spiritual practice, breaking the cycle of rebirth. "Eko’haṁ bahusyāmi. I am one, and now I will multiply." "The human life is the last milestone. If we make mistakes, we will fall down again and go through this cycle." Filming location: Mexico

Inner functions of the Human

The light of God is within every being, granting all creatures the same capacity for feeling, pain, and love. Humans possess no inherent superiority. We must treat all entities equally and support them. Our human experience is governed by ten senses: five for gathering knowledge and five for taking action. The mind is an eleventh sense, a neutral governor that records all experience. Consciousness has levels: unconscious, subconscious, and conscious. Unfulfilled desires descend from the conscious to the subconscious and may manifest as disturbances. The science of spiritual practice purifies these levels of consciousness. A mantra acts as a protective light, dispelling the darkness of past actions and preventing new negativity, guiding the journey toward higher awareness. "Treat all equally. Love each and every entity as much as you love yourself." "The mind is like the film in a camera. Every movement is being filmed, and it is very neutral." Filming location: Mexico

Yoga is union

Yoga is the ancient science of unifying body, mind, and consciousness. It existed before any religion was named. The goal is union with the divine, realizing the individual soul is part of the Supreme. This understanding has developed through the ages. Many now approach yoga only as physical exercise, but its true purpose is for good health, peace, and achieving the human goal. The practice culminates in meditation, where one finds what is sought. Different religions have divided people, but all must ultimately pass through the same gate. That gate is sacrifice. To serve the community through yoga is a form of this sacrifice. The recent international recognition of yoga helps protect its true meaning from commercialization and misunderstanding. True practice requires humility and spirituality, not ego from position or power. "Yoga means union—union with God." "Enter the kingdom of the Lord through the gate of sacrifice."

Program from Vienna

Sādhanā is the disciplined practice that sustains spiritual development. Exercise makes one a master; daily practice is essential. Without discipline, the thread breaks and is difficult to rejoin. The thread of love must not be severed by small misunderstandings. Life is a divine sign, and love is forgiveness. Intellect is an empty slate; what is written upon it with attention and grace gives it value. Negative writings are harmful. Relationships with nature and others must not be broken, for a broken thread forms a knot, an obstacle. Positive thoughts and feelings are needed to digest and transform all into the positive. When unable to perform personal sādhanā, selfless service, or sevā, is a powerful alternative. However, one who constantly accepts service takes on the helper's karma, making their path harder. True purification and achievement come through sevā and satsaṅg—the holy gathering that leads from darkness to light. In this age, real satsaṅg is rare. It is the boat to cross the ocean of illusion. A spiritual person, like a lake or a fruit tree, shares wisdom selflessly. Through correct sādhanā, humility awakens in consciousness, revealing true wisdom without selfish declaration. The wheel of time always turns; good and bad times alternate. Dedicate time to spiritual practice and community. "Rahiman dhāgā prem kā, mat todo chitkāi. Tūtā phir jūḍe nahīṁ, jūḍe gaṁṭh paḍe jāi." "Satguru nām jahāj hai. Chade sutre par." Filming location: Vienna, Austria

Awake your hidden talents

The primary talent is awareness, and the foundational law is non-violence. Without awareness, talents are misdirected. Non-violence is essential mercy; to violate it is a sin that generates fear. This fear is not abstract. Scientific experiments demonstrate that plants emit distress signals when harmed, and animals experience shared fear across distances. This energy of fear and violence enters the food chain. Consuming flesh imbued with the terror of slaughter introduces fear-based hormones into our own systems, affecting mental and physical health. Therefore, one must be uncompromising in the quality of one's consumption and actions. Purification is achieved through conscious living and meditation. Awaken the talents of compassion, forgiveness, and understanding. Suppress the talents of anger, hatred, and cruelty. Do not celebrate perfection prematurely; humility is essential. The body is a temple. Pray for nourishment without harm and for forgiveness for all creatures. "Every creature has a fear of harmful tools." "If you eat, for example, meat, ask yourself from where it comes, how it comes."

Human being is miraculous - Yoga Practice

Human qualities are awakened through yoga and conscious awareness. Immense energy and talent lie dormant within the human body. These capacities must be activated correctly, like selecting the proper gear in a machine. Upon waking, one should express gratitude, acknowledging the gift of consciousness. This simple act awakens positive energy and human awareness. Human qualities like mercy and forgiveness are not dormant but resting deep within, activated by thought and intention. Yoga is the science to activate these positive energies, liberating the soul toward the inner Supreme light. The elements and the universe are mirrored within the body; only the mind has changed. Human life is divine and meant for the protection of all creatures. Practice strengthens the inner will, allowing one to walk toward truth without support. The three guṇas—sattva, rajas, and tamas—must be balanced within us. Sattva represents purity, rajas activity, and tamas inertia. All are necessary; one cannot function with purity alone. Earn resources, but use surplus for humanitarian and environmental purposes. Practice correct, quality yoga to refine oneself and move as pure light. "Humans have the talent of mercy, forgiveness, and understanding. When there is a fire, we should try to put it out, not add fuel." "Yoga is the science of body, mind, and consciousness. The energy, the result of yoga, is to liberate the soul and enter into Ātmā Jñāna, the light of the Supreme."

Aim of the life

The aim of life is to achieve self-knowledge, yet humans suffer from their own ignorance. Intellect can create immense problems from mistaken perceptions. A guest was told a house contained a ghost; fear paralyzed him in the night. Many attempted exorcisms failed. A wise person entered with a light, revealing only hanging laundry. The ghost was born from a whispered suggestion and vanished with knowledge. Another story tells of a boy captured by a demon. The boy learned from the demon that God decreed no one could harm him for 105 years. Using this knowledge as a weapon, the boy threatened the demon with fire and escaped. We are that innocent boy, trapped by carelessness. The dangers we face are like that demon. When willpower arises, fear dissolves and we are free. The soul is immortal; only the body dies. We carry our karma like a backpack; it shapes our destiny. Destiny is written, yet performing good karma now can change the future. We cannot escape our karma; we must face it. Therefore, wake up and change your destiny through good actions and following the Guru's word. Liberate your ancestors and connected souls. Disciples must remain united in strength, like five fingers forming a fist. Words hold great power; use them wisely. "From where did the ghost come? The ghost came from blackmailing."

Questions and Answers from Mexico

True service is the highest spiritual duty. Service is of two kinds: selfish service, performed for material gain, and selfless service, done solely for spiritual development. Serve every entity to help alleviate suffering. All holy places exist for this purpose. God weighed liberation against service and found service greater. Thus, divine beings incarnate to perform selfless help. A disciple's primary request should not be for worldly things but for the blessing of true satsaṅg—association with truth and positive, divine company. One must also ask for unwavering spiritual practice, the removal of doubts and impurities, and for the divine name to be synchronized with every breath. If service to God is not accepted directly, then serve God's devotees. Serving and respecting fellow disciples without jealousy is service to the Guru. Ego and criticism of others extinguish devotion and bring fear and anger. Dedicate your life to conveying the divine message without weariness. "Helping hands have more value than folded hands." "If you do not accept my service directly, then let me serve your servant." Filming location: Mexico

Forgiveness, Kindness and Mercy

Mercy is the root of dharma and the essential inner talent to awaken. Human life possesses a distinct talent called mercy, dayā. This quality is the foundation of all duty and religion, while ego is the root of sin. Cultivating mercy leads to forgiveness and kindness, lifting consciousness. Anger and pride create suffering and internal conflict. Spiritual progress requires consistent practice to awaken this inherent compassion. All creatures share the divine light, yet humans have the intellect to choose mercy. This choice determines one's freedom and happiness. The journey involves opening the heart through awareness and devotion. "Dayā dharam kā mūla hai, pāpa mūla abhimāna." (Mercy is the root of dharma, ego is the root of sin.) "Tulsī dayā na chhoḍīye, jab laga ghaṭame prāṇa." (Tulsī, never abandon mercy as long as you have life.) Filming location: Alexandria, Virgina, USA

Inner Talents

Inner confidence is the foundation for awakening our latent talents. Without full confidence, we cannot discover or realize our abilities. Half-belief is insufficient; we must have complete trust, like the climber who could not let go when told to by God. Uncertainty is a hidden fear that arises from lack of experience. We develop through practice, not by constantly changing paths like the disciple who dug many wells but found no water. A master or parent can guide, but we must do the work ourselves. Our dormant talents and energies lie within various centers of our being. Awakening them requires inspiration, clear desire, and steady practice in one direction, not hurried seeking which leads to confusion. Realization is the fruit of a lifelong journey. "If you had dug for seven days in the same place, we would already have nice drinking water here." "Unless we have one hundred percent confidence in ourselves, half-half, it will not help."

Quality Unites

Yoga is the ancient science of body, mind, and soul, bringing harmony and health beyond man-made divisions. It is an eternal, universal path. The practice awakens inner discipline and connects us to a timeless lineage of seers and masters. True joy is not the temporary pleasure of the senses, which brings more suffering than happiness. Lasting bliss, Sat-cit-ānanda, comes from realizing one's true nature as pure consciousness. Every action creates a reaction, weaving our destiny through the energy we exchange with the world. We must live with purity, like a lotus in muddy water, without renouncing the world but by awakening the divine within. "Yoga is a science. When yoga was there, there were no different man-made religions. There was only one, called the eternal, universal, cosmic unity: Sanātana Dharma." "On each grain is written the name of the person or the animal who will eat it. And when it is in Harkishmat, you cannot take it away."

The Destiny

Our body is a divine energy system of chakras, and destiny is recorded within it. Chakras are energy centers connecting consciousness, space, and energy. The body is an indescribable creation; it transforms food into life in a way no machine can. Our destiny is the fruit of past actions, recorded in our energy field like an unerasable line on stone. We cannot delete it, but through spiritual practice, we can rise above it. The Ājñā Chakra, or third eye, when opened, grants vision of past, present, and future. Negative energies—Kāma, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Ahaṅkāra—arise from the lower chakras and bind us. These must be replaced with positive qualities: Tyāga, Vairāgya, Bhakti, Jñāna, and Viveka. A practice like Pañcāmṛta—a mixture of milk, yogurt, butter, honey, and pure water—used in worship, can help purify energy and balance the chakras. Following a master's guidance can help monitor and navigate destiny, though not erase it. The aim is to realize the oneness of all consciousness. "Destiny is a line on the stone. We can't delete it." "When we realize the oneness, then there is no difference between God and us, because it's the same energy, the same space." Filming location: New York, USA

The way how yoga is helping us

The human body is a vehicle for attaining liberation, requiring purification of three primary obstacles: impurities, disturbances, and ignorance. The soul descends through cycles of birth among 8.4 million life forms, with human birth being a rare opportunity. The intellect is a powerful tool to discover hidden powers within the 72,000 nerves, particularly the four principal ones governing health, emotion, activity, and consciousness. Two fundamental forces, divine and negative, constantly interact within, influenced by time and place. The chakras represent rotating energies, with the foundational Mūlādhāra Chakra housing unconscious consciousness and past, present, and future potentials. Impurities—physical, mental, and emotional—must be cleansed through Haṭha Yoga techniques, which balance emotion and intellect. Disturbances are restless thoughts and waves that prevent clear perception and meditation. Ignorance is a curtain over consciousness, removed through attentive listening in silent spiritual gatherings. The inner instrument consists of mind, intellect, memory, and ego, influenced by the three qualities of harmony, activity, and inertia. These qualities stem from diet, society, and habits. True progress requires mastering speech and action, understanding that the world is transient, and seeking the ultimate truth beyond it. "Brahma-satya jagat-mithyā. The Brahman, the supreme God, which has no form, no name, but still He is there. He is omniscient and omnipresent. That is the final truth." "Before you speak, think it over. Don't say always that I am right and I am right." Filming location: New York, USA

Enlightment

The journey to self-realization involves awakening the chakras and understanding karma. Life is a journey clarified through meditation, a key to the Self. Creation began from void space, Śūnyākāśa, containing consciousness and Śakti, the mother power. The Vedas state consciousness declared, "I am one, and now I will multiply," initiating resonance, sound, and light. This light manifests as souls, with 8.4 million life forms, humans being one. Humans possess intellect shaped by culture and parental education. Karma is action through body, mind, words, and social position; every action has a reaction. While karma is in our hands, its consequences become destiny. Positive actions multiply good destiny, dispelling negative karma like light removes darkness, leading to enlightenment. The biggest barrier is attachment, which brings suffering, unlike love which brings freedom. Duty must be fulfilled without attachment. Humans must ask: who am I, where do I come from, and where will I go? Answers come by awakening the Ājñā Chakra, the third eye of knowledge. The soul is immortal and reincarnates; self-realization ends this cycle. All beings are the Self; love them as yourself. This human life is the last milestone to unite with cosmic consciousness. The body has chakras and 72,000 nerves, with three main nāḍīs—Iḍā, Piṅgalā, Suṣumṇā—balancing emotion and intellect. Purifying these centers through practice leads to divine consciousness. "Life is a journey, not a destination, and that journey becomes very clear for us through meditation." "Where there is attachment, there is suffering. And where there is love, there is freedom."

The rising Sun is welcomed by everyone

The setting sun symbolizes life's twilight, yet a tiny lamp promises enduring light. Everyone praises the rising sun, but few honor the setting sun. A poet watched the sunset, feeling the sun's sorrow for the world it would leave in darkness. Then he heard a temple bell and saw a tiny flame. The lamp promised the sun it would remain burning, offering a light against the dark. This lamp is our own being: the body is the holder, our energy is the oil, and the wick is the self that burns with wisdom and hope. Never give up hope, for it is a walking stick from cradle to grave. Aging is not decline but achievement; gray hair signifies wisdom gained. The elderly are like holy places, their words and blessings wholly fruitful. The body asks for care in later years, as each organ has served loyally. Life sends notices of aging and illness; these are warnings not to be ignored. Spiritual practice is the essential support throughout life's journey, guiding the soul even after death.

Practicing Yoga Asanas

We practice Vajrāsana and Vīrāsana for the nāḍī systems. Vajrāsana activates the Vajra Nāḍī, which begins between the big and second toe, connects to the base of the spine, and guides energy to the navel. Sitting in it after eating aids digestion and can help with constipation by relaxing the stomach and straightening the spine. It also balances the sciatic nerve. Vīrāsana, the hero's posture, involves sitting on the heels with toes standing. It warms the body, increases alertness, and with practice, can help repair digestion and headaches. These postures strengthen the lower centers and foot soles, which connect to the body's organs. They develop leg strength, balance, and concentration. Practice must be held steadily to awaken the nerves. "This Vajrāsana is designed especially to strengthen or to activate that Vajra Nāḍī." "This will repair our digestion. This will repair our headache problems, also many, many things." Filming location: Atlanta, Georgia, USA

A Guided Relaxation and Movement Sequence

A guided relaxation and movement practice for the body and mind. Begin by relaxing the entire body, noticing external sounds. Move the fingers, then systematically engage the hands, wrists, and arms through opening, closing, and rotation. Rub the palms together and place them on the face. Bend forward to touch the forehead to the floor, feeling the stretch and circulation in the back, neck, and throughout the body. Slowly return to an upright position with the hands' assistance. "Relax your entire body, from the toes to the top of the head, and from the top of the head down to the toes." "Just feel the stretching of the back muscles and the neck muscles, and feel the circulation." Filming location: Atlanta, Georgia, USA

Awakening of Chakras

The path of awakening involves Kuṇḍalinī and the chakras, discovered through meditation. Mantra purifies karma and guides destiny. Yoga is the science of body, mind, and soul. Humans possess developed consciousness to uncover hidden talents, much like learning to drive awakens an innate ability. Various masters teach different techniques, but the destination is one. There are two kinds of masters: Lakṣaratī, who has realized the destination and guides experientially, and Vācaratī, who offers only intellectual knowledge. The three guṇas—sattva, rajas, tamas—affect the body and mind. Systems like Ayurveda treat individuals based on their nature, balancing the physical and subtle bodies. Chakras are connected to endocrine glands and nerves, maintaining bodily balance. Kuṇḍalinī is the dormant feminine energy at the base of the spine. Its awakening involves uniting prāṇa and apāna to rise through the chakras. The Mūlādhāra chakra is the foundation, containing past karmas. One must be like a lotus, remaining pure and detached amidst worldly problems. "Tons of theory is nothing compared to a grain of practice." "Be like a lotus above everything."

The Journey Beyond Duality: Life, Self, and the Path to Oneness

Life is a journey beyond duality toward the oneness of the Self. Two primal energies exist: the divine power leading to liberation and the negative power. The true Self, the Ātmā, is immortal and beyond these dualities, karma, and the cycle of life and death. The individual soul, however, experiences this duality. To transcend it, one must balance the inner energies. The practice of yoga is this union. The body is governed by three qualities: purity, activity, and inertia. These are influenced by lifestyle and nourishment. We perceive through five senses of knowledge and act through five senses of action. Life force, or Prāṇa, flows through channels in the body. Harmonizing the lunar and solar channels through breath leads to balance. True Haṭha Yoga consists of six purification techniques for inner health. Energy centers, or chakras, exist within the body, from the earthly base to the divine crown. Activating the highest center can lead to profound spiritual awakening. The soul's final exit reflects the quality of one's life and consciousness. "Dharma rakṣita rakṣitaha. If you protect your dharma, dharma will protect you."

Eternal Journey of the Soul

The eternal journey is the awakening of consciousness through kuṇḍalinī. Kuṇḍalinī is the awakening of bliss and consciousness, occurring when the cosmic energy within the body is purified and directed upward. The five cakras of normal existence are along the spine, and three divine cakras are above it toward the crown. Yoga practices like prāṇāyāma and meditation harmonize these centers, yet a spiritual master's guidance is essential. The guru removes the darkness of ignorance. Our reality is the immortal ātmā, the eternal light of God which cannot be destroyed. We exist within cycles of time and karma, where every action becomes destiny. The individual self longs to merge with its universal origin. Through disciplines like samādhi, one can transcend individual consciousness. This requires detachment, for attachment breeds fear. The human intellect is a powerful tool to awaken inner talents through dedicated practice under one guidance. Life is a journey of realizing this potential to escape the cycles of birth and death. "The awakening of the kuṇḍalinī means the awakening of bliss." "The guru means the remover of darkness."

Sanathan Dharma and Religion

Yoga is an ancient path predating all named religions. The eternal cosmic order, Sanātana Dharma, emphasizes harmony with nature and all beings, centered on one formless divine reality. This truth has been expressed through various divine messengers and incarnations across time, each giving rise to different religious traditions based on their teachings and example. All authentic paths share core universal principles. The highest principle is non-violence—avoiding harm to any creature through thought, word, or deed. This includes not stealing, which extends beyond material theft to taking intellectual or emotional property. True spirituality involves selfless service, love for all neighbors in creation, and inner purification. Religious forms and formless worship are both valid; the form is a support leading to the formless. The essence of religion is recognizing our eternal relation to the divine, which dwells equally in all life. "Go only to four houses. Five houses. He always went to ask for food at only five houses."

Exercises for activating Svadisthan Chakra

The Svādhiṣṭhāna Cakra is practiced through specific postures to awaken and harmonize its energy. Cakras are energy centers influencing the body, breath, glands, and mind. Their harmonization leads to a healthy life. The second cakra, Svādhiṣṭhāna, is located above the Mūlādhāra. Its positive energy develops willpower and aids digestion. Its negative aspect manifests as ego, envy, doubt, and laziness. Practice removes these negatives. Postures like Bhujaṅgāsana and Śalabhāsana target these cakras. Movements must be slow to increase awareness. These exercises strengthen the back, aid digestion, and influence glandular function. A balanced practice harmonizes the entire system. "The positive is to develop the willpower called Icchā Śakti and Kriyā Śakti." "This posture, Bhujaṅgāsana, is to remove our ego, remove our doubts, remove our laziness, and remove our envy."

Exercises for harmonizing Muladhar Chakra

Yoga is a gentle practice for awakening energy through the body, breath, and mind. Modern life creates tension, especially in the shoulders and digestion, by exceeding the body's capacity. The body requires slow, conscious movements, not stress or competition. Practices like Tai Chi demonstrate the harmony of body, mind, and concentration. Quick exercises confuse muscles and disrupt the breath, which is the soul of yoga. Slow movement allows circulation, glandular function, and joint energy to improve while the mind coordinates with the body. This gentle practice develops concentration, releases tension, and fosters happiness, beginning the journey of self-knowledge. Yoga is peace and harmony within, enabling one to work for world peace. "Yoga begins with the breath, and achievement is through the breath." "Yoga does not want to have competition... yoga is peace, harmony, and happiness with oneself."
