The incomparable value of true satsaṅg is revealed through an ancient story. A great sage performed intense spiritual practice for 60,000 years but was still troubled by anger. He offered the fruits of this immense effort to another sage. That sage offered in return only the fruit of one minute of satsaṅg. To settle whose gift was greater, they sought a divine judgment. A test was set before the being who supports the Earth. The Earth did not respond to the power of 60,000 years of practice. Yet, when offered the fruit of one minute of satsaṅg, the Earth moved and remained unsupported. The judgment was clear. One minute of genuine satsaṅg surpasses countless years of individual effort. Satsaṅg must be attended with a truthful heart, free from gossip and criticism, like an empty pot ready to receive. Only love, wisdom, and devotion reside there. "One minute of satsaṅg is greater than 60,000 years of tapasyā and all sādhanās." "Truth alone triumphs. With that truthful heart, you should go to satsaṅg."

The science of prāṇa and the practice of Kriyā govern the journey of consciousness. Prāṇa and Apāna are two forces within the body. Their union in the Maṇipūra chakra during sound vibration allows consciousness to ascend. This pure prāṇa flow merges the Iḍā and Piṅgalā channels into the Suṣumnā, like rivers becoming one. This current transforms into Nāda, the resonant sound that is ultimate reality. At life's end, the soul's direction is determined by final attachments and accumulated karma. If mantra and pure devotion are present, it proceeds directly to the Sahasrāra. The initiated Kriyā establishes a sacred but fragile connection. Neglecting practice or embracing negativity severs this thread, placing one at a perilous spiritual precipice. Practice is the inner engineering of the body's mechanisms through Prāṇāyāma and pure living. Purify the self to master the self. "Prāṇa and Apāna unite and bring that consciousness through the Suṣumnā Nāḍī towards the Sahasrāra Chakra." "If the mantra is there, if pure thoughts are there, devotion is there, it proceeds directly to the Sahasrāra." Filming location: Vép, Hungary

The power of satsaṅga lies in gathering in truth. The recent global hardship was a manifestation of Kali Yuga, a dark age where everything breaks. I was traveling but was sent to my home country. Through it all, we were with God, who provides. "Sat" means truth. A Satguru embodies this truth. Many practice yoga and follow gurus, each with a name and lineage. We are all human, yet distinctions exist through names and relationships. In the ashram, you become family. Satsaṅga is the company of truth, where we are all together in goodness. This gathering is a satsaṅg. Maintaining this truthful connection requires constant practice, or it is lost when you leave. The physical body is temporary and turns to dust. The name, however, endures beyond the body, like a memory that remains after a person is gone. Therefore, hold to the truth of the name. Satsaṅga is truth together. "Sat means truth, and this truth is like that." "The body will slowly, slowly go... but your name will not go anywhere." Filming location: Brisbane, Australia

Surya Namaskāra integrates posture, cakra concentration, and mantra for holistic purification. This classical yoga sequence is best performed at sunrise or sunset, honoring the sun as a life-giving deity. The practice involves precise physical movements, each linked to a specific cakra and breath. Quality is paramount: perfect the movement, maintain relaxation, focus on the cakra, and know the mantra. This complete structure yields the benefits. Daily practice makes one's being like the sun, purifying the atmosphere so negativity cannot take hold. Correct alignment prevents injury; the spine must remain straight during forward and backward bends. Concentration involves feeling each cakra's location and qualities. Integrating silent or spoken mantras with movement and breath deepens the effect, working on the body, cakras, and consciousness. "Anything thrown toward the sun either gets burned or, if it is dust, merely falls into your own eyes." "My photograph, my image, is the sun. Whenever you wish to see me, look at the sun."

Śraddhā is the foundational quality for spiritual practice, encompassing respect, devotion, confidence, love, belief, expectation, and hope. It is traditionally directed toward parents, a master, or God. Patañjali advises the practitioner to direct this Śraddhā toward their own practice itself. One must have confidence in the practice as the sole vehicle for achievement, just as one must trust a functional car to drive it. This instruction serves even those who do not hold conventional objects of faith. "Śraddhā means you must have confidence in your practice. That practice alone is your instrument, your vehicle, the very medium of your achievement." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

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

Yoga is union with the divine through unwavering devotion. Shiva embodies liberation, formless and all-pervasive. He is the root of the sacred syllable Om. He transcends the three states and the three gunas. He is the substratum of the cosmos. His throat is stained blue by the world's poison. The crescent moon adorns his matted locks. His rhythm sustains and dissolves creation. His third eye incinerates desire and ignorance. He is the refuge of all realms. Devotional surrender grants lasting peace. Chanting his names purifies the mind. The mind absorbed in his lotus feet finds rest. He is the inner self hidden in all beings. Rituals are outer symbols of inner worship. Constant remembrance is the highest yoga. "Namāmi Samīśān Nirvāṇa Rūpam, Vibhum Vyāpakam Brahma Veda Svarūpam."

We came here to practice and recharge our spiritual energy. You spend your resources and time, so it is a pity not to practice. If you cannot do the primary practice, at least do not disturb others; you can engage in karma yoga. Mantra Anuṣṭhāna is a systematic inner purification of the mind and its patterns. These practices are designed for worldly people with duties, offering a retreat to recharge physical, mental, and spiritual energy. Performing āsanas slowly and holding stretches prepares the body for meditation, reducing stiffness. Undertaking this anuṣṭhāna, even for a short period, builds psychic strength. The techniques are divine; you should have devotion to them as you do to God, for they are the means to realization. "If you cannot practice, then at least do not disturb others." "You should change your way of thinking towards your sādhanā." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Svara Yoga balances breath for consciousness and liberation. The moon and sun nostrils govern emotion and intellect, mirroring lunar phases influencing nature and action. Human life has lost its natural rhythm with these cycles. Yogic consciousness remains awake even in sleep, known as Yoga Nidra. This practice widens awareness to perceive future events like illness or death by observing prana. The Ida and Pingala nadis alternate flow approximately every 45 minutes. Sleep position directs this flow: sleeping on the left side activates the right, solar nadi at night. Upon waking, the active nadi should align with the lunar fortnight—solar in the dark phase, lunar in the bright. Physical methods, like pressing the opposite armpit, can change the active nostril. The ultimate aim is to guide prana through the central Sushumna nadi to the crown chakra, the door to liberation. This merger of energy with consciousness is the essence of Kundalini and Tantra. The mantra OM resonates to activate this pathway. Daily activities like eating or walking should align with the correct nasal flow to master this science, making life clear and stable. "Widen your consciousness, you can become aware when you will die, which day, which time you can tell, when you will become ill, because you see the color of your prāṇa." "Finally, the aim is this: that our prāṇa should flow through the suṣumṇā to the sahasrāra cakra... the door to Brahman or the door to the Supreme." Filming location: Vép, Hungary DVD 368

Prāṇa is the vital force sustaining life beyond apparent death. A young man declared dead after a cobra bite was placed in the Gaṅgā, yet returned after fourteen years. His prāṇa entered a deep samādhi, halting breath so water could not enter his lungs, preserving life. Similarly, a yogī in the Himalayas survives encased in ice, sustained by prāṇa drawn from the elements without breath. Where the soul resides, prāṇa is present, and where prāṇa exists, there is no death. The sage Vālmīki sat in meditation for years as termites built a mound around him, kept alive by prāṇa focused in the Sahasrāra Cakra through silent mantra repetition. Another man, angry at God, refused to work after seeing an ant fed within a sealed rock. He rejected discovered treasure, insisting providence deliver it to his home, which later occurred through a thief's actions, teaching trust in divine timing. Through prāṇāyāma and mantra, prāṇa ascends to the Sahasrāra, guided by grace. "Where the soul is there, the prāṇa is there. When prāṇa is there, the soul is there. And when the soul is there, death is not there." "What is in your kismat, you will get it. Do good karma."

The teaching presents the four sādhanās for liberation. Sādhanā means to practice, to work, to be active. The first sādhanā is viveka. Viveka is intelligence, discrimination between truth and untruth. It kindles inner light, seeing everything clearly. It purifies negative and positive, removing jealousy and hate. The second sādhanā is vairāgya. Vairāgya is non-attachment, giving up bad qualities. Rāga is attachment; harmful rāga must be abandoned. The third sādhanā is Sat Sampati. It means holding onto true wealth. The fourth sādhanā encompasses samādhi, śraddhā, ati tīkṣṇa. It further includes kāryopāram, sama, dhana, vicāra. These four sādhanās lead to mokṣa. All activities are sādhanā, but these four specifically grant liberation. Thus, do the four sādhanās. "Sādhanā cāro karo, Hari pyāre, jis se hove mokṣa tumhārā." "Dūjā sādhanā ve rāghav kāhī̃, brahmalok tak bhojā." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Integrating cakra, mantra, and movement creates a complete practice. Concentration on the cakra is a distinct practice often neglected. This integration is explored through Sūrya Namaskāra. It is important not to practice only the posture, only the cakra focus, or only the mantra in isolation. An integrated structure is necessary. The practice works on the removal of toxins and ignites the individual. The vibration of the mantra affects the eyes and the surrounding area. One must attune the mantra to oneself. The life force is prepared through this facing and stretching. "It is important that we do not only practice Sūrya Namaskār, not only focus on the cakra, not only practice the mantra." "So you change the mantra, and then you change the situation."

A guided practice integrating physical posture, energetic seal, and meditative awareness. Begin standing with feet together, then apart. Execute movements with the arms and gaze to each side, synchronizing with breath. If necessary, one may sit. Kneel, placing one leg forward, fixing the gaze on a single point. Extend the arms and return slowly. Raise the hands overhead, palms pressed, then close the eyes. Sit with crossed legs. Form the gesture with thumb and index finger. Perform the specific seal twenty-one times, coordinating with the natural breath. Recite the sacred sound eleven times with eyes closed. Perceive the vibration moving from the central point upward to the crown and back to the nostrils. Become aware of the stations along this internal pathway. This is an introductory instruction for working with the subtle energy and its centers. "Perceive the normal inhalation and exhalation." "Become aware of how many stations there are on the path."

The journey of consciousness progresses from the Mūlādhāra to the Svādhiṣṭhāna Cakra. The universe is an endless cosmic mother containing balanced consciousness and willpower. The divine sound AUM is the source of all creation, resonating within every atom. This human life on the karma planet is a unique opportunity for development using the intellect. The body is composed of five elements, and within all creatures resides the reflection of the one cosmic Self. Knowing the self is the path to liberation, requiring practice like yoga rather than mere theory. Kuṇḍalinī is the dormant power of personal destiny within the unconscious. This energy resides at the Mūlādhāra and seeks union with pure consciousness, Śiva, at the Sahasrāra Cakra. The journey ascends through channels and energy centers, confronting stored karma. The Svādhiṣṭhāna Cakra is the 'place of the self,' associated with the water element, awakening energy, and the color orange. Its symbol is a half-moon, and it holds the six obstacles: anger, hate, greed, jealousy, cruelty, and laziness, often symbolized by a crocodile representing passion. This center is governed by the creator Brahmā and the wisdom of Sarasvatī. One must purify desires and overcome these negative qualities to progress. Liberation is the union of the individual soul with the supreme soul. "Tons of theory is nothing compared with a gram of practice." "Know thyself is the way to liberation."

The path of yoga is the highest spirituality, uniting the individual with the divine principle. Chant Aum, directing awareness from the navel to the crown chakra through seven stations, connecting to the guru's grace. This practice purifies the inner channels. Maintain a vision of oneness with all beings, including parents and spiritual teachers, whether they are physically present or not. The cosmos originated from the primal sound, the three letters A, U, M, which form Aum. From this resonance emerged light, then air, water, and earth. Shiva is the first yogi, the source of yoga, embodying the balance of all dualities within creation. All elements, deities, and opposing forces—devas and rakshasas—exist within the human body. The inner journey requires balancing these forces to reach the supreme state. The guru principle is the final guide beyond all learning, leading to the cosmic Self. Fulfill worldly duties while keeping spiritual practice in the heart. "Yoga is the highest, the very highest spirituality, and it is for everything." "Therefore, the final highest is the one who understands the Guru principle." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The practice is to chant oṃ from the navel to the sahasrāra through seven stations. Sit in vajrāsana. Perform five rounds of prāṇāyāma with the mantra oṃ. Direct the sound from the navel upward through seven steps to the crown. Return the sound to the navel afterward. Close the eyes to concentrate. Hear the sound in the ears during the chant. The common way uses only three steps, but true yoga requires the sevenfold navel path. With proper learning, the energy will also descend from the navel to the mūlādhāra. Refine the chant using vowel sounds like a, u, and i. Let the sound flow beautifully through the nostrils and travel upward. Feel the resonance in the eyes and ears comfortably. When the lips close, the sound goes from the palate down to both nostrils. Then it moves to the bindu and again to the sahasrāra. Practice daily to understand this ascending movement. "Five times this 'oṃ' from the navel to the sahasrāra." "When we close our lips, at that time, it will go from the palate, coming down to both nostrils, then it will go again into bindu and sahasrāra." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The sound Aum and the movement of prāṇa are central to awakening inner energy. All language begins from the single center of the navel. The letter 'A' emanates from there, and 'R' returns to touch it, creating a cycle of expansion and contraction. In Kundalini science, one inhaled breath divides into ten prāṇas that energize the body. Chanting Aum is a Kriya Yoga practice. We expand into the universe with 'A' and contract, bringing the 'M' back to the navel. This awakens the Kundalini Śakti, moving energy from the navel to the heart, to the throat, to the brow center, and up to the crown, receiving the nectar of immortality. The cycle then brings this energy back down to the navel. By following this resonance, one purifies the body and connects with the universal energy. "By chanting Aum, we are awakening that Kuṇḍalinī Śakti, coming from the navel to the heart, from the heart to the vocal cord, lightening in the Ājñā Cakra." "Relax and close your eyes. Concentrate on the resonance. The vibration—through that resonance, you hear with your ears."

Self-inquiry meditation is practiced by self-questioning. Sit comfortably straight, hands on thighs, eyes closed. Chant Oṁ three times to withdraw from the external. Feel and relax the whole body. Repeat your mantra with the mālā. Feel motionlessness, energy, comfort, and aliveness. Observe the breath naturally. Feel divine blessing, bliss, ask for nothing. Detachedly observe any visions. Guide prāṇa between navel and crown with the breath. Practice alternate nostril breathing, feeling the energy flow. Focus on the navel center with gentle inhalation. Inhale deeply, apply chin lock, retain, then exhale. Stretch, surrender, rise to Vajrāsana, stretch up, fold forward. Practice the second version of Kāṭha Praṇām. Do Kīṭa Āsana and seated forward bend. Stand, then sit down. "I know that I breathe. I know that I am breathing comfortably." "In this ocean of divine blessing and bliss, simply feel this divine blessing. Try not to wish for anything; do not ask for anything." Filming location: Prague, Czech Republic

The Vajranāḍī is the foundational energy channel governing immunity and consciousness. Prāṇa flows through 72,000 nerves, with cosmic energy entering via the Sahasrāra and distributed by the Suṣumnā, Iḍā, and Piṅgalā. The Vajranāḍī, originating between the big and second toes, is the root stabilizing this entire system. It must be controlled, akin to an elephant guided by a mahout's ankuśa. Sitting in Vajrāsana activates this channel, impacting the toes, ankles, knees, and hips. The Vajranāḍī connects to the Mūlādhāra, where the primary nāḍīs meet. Energy centers in the foot soles reflect the entire body's health; damaging them harms the whole system. Chakras are arranged from the feet upward: Earth, Vegetation, Animal, then the five human chakras, followed by Ājñā, Bindu, Sahasrāra, and Brahma. All function through prāṇa. The body is sacred; tattoos damage the subtle energy channels. Proper footwear and walking on acupressure surfaces maintain the foot chakras and overall vitality. "Vajranāḍī maintains our immunity. Vajranāḍī balances the consciousness." "Your body is a holy body, and you should bring this as it is."

The Supreme manifests as resonance. Svara Yoga is the science of mastering the flow of breath through the nostrils to unite individual consciousness with cosmic consciousness. This discipline requires pure diet and reduces bodily toxins through control of prāṇa and apāna. The entire universe is sound; by mastering this Nāda through sattvic living and specific techniques, one can achieve astral travel beyond material existence. Our physical manifestation begins as a resonant drop, and every cell in the body is charged by environmental resonance, positive or negative. This resonance influences all bodily systems and health. Chakras function like dynamos, generating energy through movement and resonance. The practice involves dynamic movement, stretching, and postures. Ultimately, sound is the means of union with the Supreme, and through understanding sacred words and resonance, one can attain darśana and cross the ocean of illusion. The goal is to purify the chakras and nāḍīs so the soul may exit through the tenth door, the Sahasrāra, to Brahmaloka, which requires the Guru's grace obtained through understanding his words, service, and blessing. The seed of sound resides in the navel, manifesting as three levels: parā, paśyantī, and vaikharī. Chanting Oṁ awakens this sound, which travels through the central channel to purify all layers of being and create a protective enlightenment. "Through the sound you give, through the sound you receive, through the words, the sound you are together, through the sound you are happy, through the sound is yoga." "Your body is nothing but a resonance. Every blood cell has immense resonance."

Sādhanā requires perfect technique and discipline, following principles like a vehicle requires correct fuel. The human system needs sāttvic nourishment. Understand your practice; even basic exercises constitute anuṣṭhāna when performed with discipline. The Maṇipūra chakra is paramount, as the body's manifestation begins there. It is where prāṇa and apāna unite and the seat of hara-śakti, the life force governing immunity. This energy must be balanced. The seed of sound resides in the Maṇipūra, with levels from parā to vaikharī. Chanting Aum awakens this sound, guiding it through the nāḍīs to the heart and Sahasrāra. This process purifies and unites the energies at the Ājñā Chakra. Authentic sādhanā requires devotion and lineage, not self-made methods. Discipline is essential; its loss spoils the practice like souring milk. True practice leads beyond time and space. "Through the fire of yoga, you can burn all the seeds of your karmas." "Without bhakti, without devotion, you cannot cross this ocean of ignorance." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Sādhanā requires perfect technique and discipline, following principles like a car needing correct fuel. This human system requires spiritual nourishment. The Maṇipūra Chakra is central; the body's manifestation begins there, and it is where the soul enters and prāṇa and apāna unite. It houses the hara-śakti, the life force governing immunity. A weak hara-śakti causes fatigue; the Khaṭupranām exercise strengthens it. Sound originates in the Maṇipūra Chakra, with levels from parā (navel) to vaikharī (lips). Chanting Aum in Śabda Sañjālan practice awakens this sound, rising to the Sahasrāra and flowing back to the heart, uniting the nāḍīs at the Ājñā Chakra. This confluence, Trikuṭī, purifies karma. Success requires disciplined practice, devotion, and following a true spiritual lineage. Without devotion and discipline, balance is lost and practice fails. With sincere sādhanā, inner awakening and freedom are attained. "Only the maṇipūra chakra can control the two forces, prāṇa and apāna." "Without bhakti, without devotion, you cannot cross this ocean of ignorance." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

The journey of consciousness begins with the sound Oṁ, the universal resonance connecting the limited self to the limitless cosmic consciousness. This individual self travels through the universe, born on this planet of karma to develop and return to its source. The human form, endowed with intellect, is a unique opportunity among 8.4 million creatures to realize the cosmic Self residing within all. This realization is liberation. Kuṇḍalinī is the dormant power of destiny within, created by one's own past actions. This energy resides at the base of the spine and must awaken and ascend through the central channel, guided by practice, to unite with pure consciousness at the crown. The path requires overcoming obstacles like anger and desire to achieve self-knowledge. "Theory will not help; it inspires us only, but it will not help us. And for that, we need a practice." "Know thyself is the way to liberation. This answer can only be given by thyself."

Sādhanā requires perfect technique and discipline, like following road rules to avoid an accident. The human body is an engine requiring sāttvic nourishment, not worldly fuel. The Maṇipūra Cakra is the vital center where prāṇa and apāna unite and where the soul enters; it is the seat of Hara Śakti, the life force governing immunity. Sound originates from the navel, with its dormant seed in the Maṇipūra. Chanting Oṃ in the Śabda Sañjālan practice awakens this sound, which rises to the Sahasrāra and flows to the heart, uniting the three nāḍīs at the Ājñā Cakra in a confluence called Trikuṭī. This inward bathing washes away karmas. Authentic sādhanā requires devotion and a spiritual lineage; self-made practices lack roots and bear no real fruit. Discipline is essential; losing it spoils the practice like milk soured by lemon. Begin with devotion to awaken the inner kingdom. "Yogāgni karoti dagdhaṃ—through the fire of yoga, you can burn all seeds of your karmas." "Where there are doubts and complexes, bhakti cannot be perfect. Bhakti is unconditional; then your yoga agni becomes strong." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 215

Knowledge is an eternal flow, without end, known as Sarasvatī. Sarasvatī brings positive understanding, peace, harmony, and vidyā. Vidyā springs forth endlessly in consciousness, not merely from past study. Stopping learning means being lost; one continues like flowing oil. Memory connects past, present, and future, and some rare beings awaken past knowledge through the Guru. Even sweeping is vidyā, but ego—ahaṅkāra—blocks true learning. All languages and peoples gather like clouds, contributing to one whole. Fifty-two letters exist, within which Kuṇḍalinī Śakti resides. Principal cakras include Mūlādhāra, Svādhiṣṭhāna, Maṇipūra, Anāhata, Viśuddhi, Ājñā, Bindu, and Sahasrāra. The sound Oṃ rises from the navel to Sahasrāra and returns through the nostrils. The Satguru Chalīsā embeds the key of all alphabets, pointing to pure wisdom. Pure wisdom is śuddha, buddhi, and jñāna—purity, intellect, knowledge. This wisdom stands above Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Maheśvara. Yogic knowledge seeks the cosmic Self, beyond worldly science. Kriyā Śakti is the power behind every action; balance must be maintained. Without Sarasvatī, beings become like animals. "Knowledge has no end. That is why we call it the Devī Sarasvatī." "The river can have curves, but not the water. Similarly, the vidyā, the knowledge, constantly moves further." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The Supreme manifests as resonance, a sound permeating all existence. Śvara Yoga is the science of mastering the flow of breath through the three primary nāḍīs. This discipline requires immense purity, diet, and years of practice to unite individual consciousness with the Cosmic, making one a detached actor in the world. The body itself is formed and sustained by resonance; every cell vibrates with positive or negative energy based on environment and mental state. This inner sound, Nāda, is the essence of the universe, heard inwardly through deep meditation beyond the material realm. Mastery leads to a sattvic life where only the sound of the Self remains. Chakras function like dynamos, generating energy through resonance when activated. The ultimate goal is to purify these centers through Śvara Yoga and Nāda Yoga, enabling the soul to depart through the Sahasrāra Chakra into Brahmaloka by divine grace. This grace is earned through understanding the Guru's words, selfless service, and unwavering devotion. "Through sound you are united with the Supreme. It is that sound through which you can have the light of love." "Only those upon whom my grace falls will understand. Others will not." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 222

The path of prāṇa and the seven sages is revealed through the guru's grace, not dry knowledge. True understanding flows from the bindu as nectar into the nāḍīs. Many seek truth through religion, like searching for water behind a rock, yet the living God is found within. The jīva is a drop from the navel, containing the potential of the entire ocean. Prāṇa originates at the navel, the vital point sustaining life. The correct chant of Aum encompasses akār, ukār, makār, and the bindu, leading to sahasrāra. The seven ṛṣis are the seers of the mantras, corresponding to the seven chakras within. They are Viśvāmitra, Jamadagni, Bharadvāja, Gautama, Atri, Vasiṣṭha, and Kaśyapa. Their realized knowledge structures reality. "Where there is water, there is God. That is the Buddha jīva." "Ṛṣi means to attract. Who is attracting the holy mantras? They are the ṛṣis."

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

The Kuṇḍalinī Śakti is the universal power present within every being and all of Prakṛti. The human body is an infinite treasury created by Paramātmā, with buddhi developed through śikṣā and yoga. To enable happiness and the union of ātman and Paramātmā, Svāyambhu Śiva revealed these sciences. The entire cosmos was created from the nāda of Oṁ, which circulates as unbroken sound; without this nāda manifesting within, the body is lifeless. Within the body, 72,000 nāḍīs exist, with the central suṣumnā ascending from the mūlādhāra to the sahasrāra cakra. There is no distinction between Puruṣa and Prakṛti; the jīvātman embodies Śakti and the ātman embodies Śiva, with union dissolving duality. Yogic practices were brought to humanity by ṛṣis through tapasyā. For those who cannot practice intense sādhanā, the foremost path is Karma Yoga, the fire that burns away karma. In Kali Yuga, the easy path is Bhakti Yoga and following the Satguru. Key cakras in the brain are the ājñā, bindu, and sahasrāra. Awakening the bindu cakra, perhaps by maintaining a śikhā to apply tension, enhances remembrance, concentration, and health. The goal is to awaken Kuṇḍalinī, unite it with Śiva, and realize the ātman. "The entire world is but a dream; only devotion to Prabhu is real." "Yoga is the fire that burns away karma; through the fire of that yoga, one can burn and reduce the effects of karma." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The unlimited sound, Anāhada Nāda, is the cause of the universe. Each individual and every cell contains a universe. A self-realized one declares the entire creation exists within. Every thought is a universe, appearing and disappearing like a bubble. The heart chakra, Anāhata, is the essential anchor for the practitioner to avoid drifting away. Without a point of reference, one remains a small spark, suffering within the filter of the ego and the five bodies. Negative emotions pollute these bodies. Guidance from a true Master is required, but this relationship is based on devotion and trust, not intellect. The dissatisfied mind constantly seeks new things, lacking contentment. The heart chakra can regulate energy, but a firm decision for spiritual guidance is necessary. Sound originates in the navel, rises to color the heart, and is filtered through the throat chakra. A purified heart, immersed in devotion, transforms life into beauty and bliss. The journey involves purifying blocked energies to ascend towards liberation and immortality. "Stars, planets, and various parts of space roar. I am the one who has exhaled, and I hold everything as mine."

The day is beautiful, and the work done was harmonious for body and soul. The Guru lineage is present, deserving devotion and praṇām. Modern science preserves the voices and forms of great beings, making them accessible as if present. Yet, science also creates weapons and negativity, becoming a destructive force. The essence is to cultivate the divine within, not the demonic. Today, mantra initiation was given. Mantra is not magic; it dispels fear through knowledge. The word 'mantra' means that which brings the mind to happiness and completion. Correct practice is essential. First, write the mantra exactly each day. Then pronounce it correctly. Next, chant it mentally. The fourth stage is silent, internal repetition without movement or sound. Finally, the mantra moves spontaneously within, leading to deep spiritual progress. This is the foundation for further yogic science, including Kriyā involving the chakras. Kriyā practice requires sincere commitment. A minimum practice, once daily, must not be interrupted. The energy moves through the chakras from the base to the crown. This is a pure, positive science, not a negative or tantric distortion. The practice brings quality and strength. If abandoned, the progress is lost. "First, write down your mantra. That’s called Likhita Mantra. If you do not write and pronounce it exactly, then your mantra will not be powerful." "The fourth one is called udāsī. And this udāsī means neither tongue, neither word, neither sound, nothing is pronouncing. That time, then, you know, now your mantra will begin to function."

The story illustrates how greed tests devotion. Nārada observes human suffering and prosperity. Lakṣmī claims all devotees are hers, prompting a test with Viṣṇu. Viṣṇu, disguised as a simple sādhu, is welcomed devoutly by a merchant. Later, Lakṣmī arrives appearing extraordinarily wealthy. The merchant, enticed by her gold, breaks his promise and violently evicts the first sādhu to accommodate her. The test reveals the devotee's loyalty was to wealth, not God. The lesson warns against abandoning one's spiritual practice for new, alluring promises, as this wastes precious time. True practice requires inner commitment, not external allure. "Are you sure that I will sit here and you will move me out?" "No, you are my heart." Filming location: Jadan, Rajasthan, India

The teachings of yoga are divine revelations, not human inventions. All classical techniques, from āsanas to prāṇāyāma, originate from this source. The primary vehicle for this knowledge within our tradition is the bhajan. These are not merely songs but sacred utterances containing the complete spiritual path. They encompass mantra, meditation, and the detailed processes of Kuṇḍalinī awakening. A teacher provides the system and explanation, yet the experiences described in the bhajans confirm the teachings. The practices lead from conscious effort to spontaneous inner awakening, where sound becomes light and the heart opens to final realization. "All the yoga teachings are revealed divine knowledge." "The mantra, the sound, changes into light." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

Purification of body, energy channels, and mind is the essence of yogic science. The human body itself represents the social system: the head and senses are Brahmin, the shoulders and arms are Kshatriya, the trunk is Vaishya, and the feet are Shudra. True caste is a metaphor for bodily function, not birth. Illness stems from inner impurity. Authentic Hatha Yoga is internal cleansing through practices like the ṣaṭkarma, not merely postures. Purify the physical body first. Next, purify the 72,000 nāḍīs, or energy channels, through pranayama and mantra. The vibration from correct Sanskrit pronunciation creates specific resonances that cleanse these channels and affect the chakras, promoting health. We possess five sheaths: physical, energetic, mental, intellectual, and blissful. The innermost self is formless. Practice is essential; theory is worthless without it. Health is the foundation for everything. "The caste system is in your body." "Yoga is a practical way." Filming location: Melbourne, Australia

Yoga in daily life is a holistic path for body, mind, and soul, integrating specific practices to alleviate stress and cultivate inner purity. The aim is to be truly present with the body, as we are often disconnected from it. This practice serves as psychic hygiene, clarifying the emotional nature so it becomes calm and reflective, like a serene sea. The system includes expert-designed programs for various needs, such as back pain or joint care, and is applied globally by millions. It requires highly educated teachers who undergo years of training, as teaching carries great responsibility. The approach fosters automatic spiritual development, defined not as religion but as purity and clearness, free from negative thoughts. "Spirituality means purity. When there is purity, you do not have negative thoughts or internal arguments." "In this Vajrāsana posture, when your spinal column is straight, there are very pleasant and beautiful, relaxing feelings in the stomach muscles."

The Guru Tattva is the light beyond the physical form. It functions as Brahmā, creating good thoughts; as Viṣṇu, protecting; as Maheśvara, destroying negativity. That tattva is Parabrahma itself, not the embodied guru. The physical guru is like a box containing a precious diamond—value lies in the light within. That light is pure knowledge, divine bliss, the inner witness, beyond the three guṇas. It sees everywhere, ever aware, omnipresent. Śrī Devpurījī awakened Mahāprabhujī, showing a ray of that cosmic light. The heart, previously bound by illusion, glimpsed the reflection of Brahman like a moon in calm water. That sight brought supreme bliss and radiance, merging the disciple’s gaze with the guru’s light. Through upadeśa, Iḍā and Piṅgalā nāḍīs united, meditation settled at the tenth door. The resonance of So’ham resounded, revealing a city of nothingness, an unmovable flame. There, the fullness of Brahman alone shone, indescribable, without support. This is the ultimate Guru Tattva, the supreme shelter we seek. We pray for that shelter of Brahman. Practice and purification remove the dust of karmas. Keep the light; do not lose it. Through sādhanā, the curtain of ignorance falls. That light alone is eternal and one. "Gurur Sākṣāt Param Brahma, Tasmai Śrī Gurave Namaḥ." "Cetan kā chilakā svāmī ne dikhāyā diyā."

A guided meditation combines mantra repetition with the continuous chanting of Oṃ to create a divine resonance. Relax the body with eyes closed. Use your initiation mala to repeat your personal mantra. Simultaneously, chant Oṃ without cessation. Feel light ascending from the base chakra to the crown chakra. From the crown, this light transfers and transforms, filling the entire body. The instructions are to be followed while maintaining both practices continuously. Remain within the resonant frame of the Oṃ sound. "While chanting Oṃ, feel that light ascending from the Mūlādhāra Cakra to the Sahasrāra Cakra." "Repeat your mantra. Chant Oṃ from Mūlādhāra till Sahasrāra Cakra."

The nature of prāṇa and the kośas is subtle and profound. Prāṇa is not oxygen and has no direct English translation. It is the vital force that defines a living entity, a prāṇī. When prāṇa leaves, one dies. The jīva is the life principle, closely connected to prāṇa but not identical to a soul. As long as prāṇa is in the body, you are alive. It leaves last from the heart. Its departure is painful, like a heart attack where blocked blood flow causes severe spasms. Prāṇa is the cement that binds the five kośas—Annamaya, Prāṇamaya, Manomaya, Vijñānamaya, and Ānandamaya—together. Your diet influences your prāṇa, and your prāṇa influences your mind. The mind is powerful; if you are its slave, you will suffer. In meditation, direct your breath and consciousness along the spine from the Mūlādhāra to Sahasrāra to control mental fluctuations. At death, only one question matters: what will become of me? The mind must be attracted to the Divine at that final moment. Purify your energy and mind to understand the Prāṇamaya Kośa. You need guidance to cross this ocean. "Prāṇa is very hard to understand and describe. What is the prāṇa? Oxygen is not Prāṇa." "As long as prāṇa is in the body, you are alive."

The cosmic Śakti is the universal energy that unites consciousness and creation, manifesting within all beings. This energy, the Kuṇḍalinī Śakti, flows through 72,000 nāḍīs in the human body, with three primary channels: Iḍā (moon, mind, emotion), Piṅgalā (sun, intellect, action), and Suṣumṇā (consciousness). The body's energy centers, or chakras, correspond to the five elements and different states of awareness, from the unconscious Mūlādhāra to the superconscious Sahasrāra. Awakening this energy requires discipline in diet, behavior, and thought, guided by mantra and meditation to purify subconscious impressions and past karma. This path leads from individual consciousness to cosmic consciousness, culminating in union with the divine. "The force within this which will guide you and which will give you the different experiences, happiness, that is what you call the kuṇḍalinī." "Without mantra, without guru mantra, you cannot awaken your kuṇḍalinī, and if you do, then there can be complications." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic DVD 402

The human system is mapped by 72,000 nāḍīs, fine channels for cosmic energy called Kuṇḍalinī Śakti. Each energy entry point is a chakra, akin to a reflex zone. Three primary nāḍīs are essential: Iḍā (mind, moon), Piṅgalā (intellect, sun), and Suṣumṇā (consciousness). Consciousness oscillates between waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. Practice leads through unconscious, subconscious, conscious, and superconscious states toward cosmic consciousness. The body's chakras correspond to elements, with Mūlādhāra at the base storing past-life impressions and Svādhiṣṭhāna holding subconscious impressions from this life. The Suṣumṇā nāḍī is the central pathway. Awakening requires discipline in diet, behavior, and thought, guided by a mantra to purify negativity. Positive awakening brings happiness, devotion, contentment, and inner light. The ultimate aim is for the energy to ascend to the Sahasrāra Chakra, the door to Brahman, bypassing lower exits. "These nāḍīs are the fine channels through which cosmic energy streams into and enters this body." "The force within this which will guide you and give you different experiences and happiness is what you call the Kuṇḍalinī." Filming location: Strilky, Czech Republic

A guided practice integrates physical postures with meditation focused on the navel center, or nābhi. Begin with physical stretches to prepare the body and mind. Raise the hands and legs, coordinating movement with breath. A teacher may demonstrate the sequence for clarity. The postures aim to create relaxation and bodily awareness. This prepares one for seated meditation. The core practice involves focusing energy at the nābhi. From this point, awareness travels upward through the chakras to the crown and then descends. This cycle completes at the navel, unifying the energy flow. The technique is a complete cycle from the navel and back. "It is going completely for us like cycling, all from our nābhi to go up to the sahasrāra, going back to the mūlādhāra, and this, and coming back." "The whole circle comes to one point, and that point is the nābhi."
