Discover who you truly are

The purpose of life is to come home, 
to find out and live what you truly are
- the never changing Presence.
Nothing else gives lasting satisfaction.
Everything else comes and goes. 

Who am I?

This question points directly to who you truly are. You have always been here. You were never lost. You just forgot your own greatness and beauty. There is nothing missing and you are complete just as you are. You are the source, that mysterious Presence which is before everything. Which is also the forms, the manifestations. You are life itself. More →

Ramana Maharshi

Since I saw a picture of Ramana around 1972 he has always been with me. Almost forgotten in the beginning when I was lost in tm and then tm-movement. When I got in contact with the satsang-world and his tradition  in 1998 I was completely overwhelmed by his presence. More →

Beyond freedom and control

In satsang we often talk about letting go and that we are too much into controlling our life. If we only could let go of all concepts, ideas, patterns, negative expectations! If we were completely free there certainly would be no control! More →

Busy doing nothing

At the end of the day my wife and I always share our experiences of what happened during our day. I notice how hard it is, many times impossible to recollect what happened. There is no sense of doing or experience that something did happen. Where did it all go? More →

Beyond words

Truth, that which you truly are can not be put in words. A good friend of mine got the this question from a talkative person: "What is the sign of an awakening". My friend answered: "You become silent!". More →

Short talks by Satyananda

This is a spontaneous sharing of what happens in the moment. I have no idea what will come out before I start. I just trust and let it happen.

Meditation

I mainly use two types of meditation. Who am I? to handle thoughts and experience their source. Meeting feelings which is most about emotions, energies and different physical experiences, to include all experiences and experience wholeness. More →

Meditation and awakening

Meditation is not a prerequisite for awakening. I can be a great help but in the end it is all about Grace. You can get lost in all the practices and being a good seeker. It is all about finding out who the meditator is. In a moment of innocence an opening is possible. If there is enough maturity this might be the turning point. More →

Handle difficult feelings

When we don't avoid what is difficult healing can take place. Stay and discover completeness. This video is a short inner journey meeting feelings and handling different meditation experiences.

My poetry

In poetry I try to catch that which cannot be put in words. Here I experience myself naked, open, and vulnerable. I am just here and life runs through this body-mind. What to do? It just happens and I have no power over what will come. More →
Taken by Life itself (Satyananda 2013)

I tried to be clever.
I tried to be good.
I tried hard to be someone,
it just did not work.

So now I am here, empty.
I receive life naked just as I am.
Right here – this moment.
Open, no questions left. More →

Life after life.
We stay a while
in this beautiful,
short dream.
What remains? More →
