BE A LIGHT TO YOURSELF: SATSANG WITH SWAMI DHYAN GITEN IN STOCKHOLM - A MEETING IN LOVE, TRUTH AND SILENCE
During the winter 2013, there will be an opportunity for Satsang with Swami Dhyan Giten during 10 Thursday evenings in Stockholm. Satsang is a meeting in love, truth and silence. Satsang is a love, a meditation and an energy transference. Satsang is a direct insight and experience of our inner being, of our authentic self.
"It is atonishing to realize that growing up actually means to become one with Existence. It means to find the whole Existence within myself; it means to discover that Existence is alive in my own heart and being.
The song of a bird echoes my own inner voice, the beauty of a flower reflects my own inner beauty, a dog becomes an expression of my own unconditional love and friendship, the majestic mountains create an ecstatic joy, and I discover all the shining stars of the sky within my own heart.
It is to realize that the whole Existence is alive, and that the underlying thread of consciousness is God."
- Swami Dhyan Giten
This Satsang-series has been given the theme "Be a light to yourself", and during these evenings Giten will also lecture about Vedantas's seven steps to enlightenment, where there will be an opportunity to ask questions about spiritual growth. In between the evenings, practical exercises and meditation will also be recommended to integrate these 7 steps deeply into your daily life. It is an opportunity to reinforce your intention to awakening, to enlightenment.
This Satsang-series also include an individual consultation with Giten for spiritual guidance. Sometimes psychological factors can hinder us from being in contact with our inner being, with our authentic self, so for them that wish further time and space to explore what stands in the way of being in contact with their inner being, there is also an opportunity to book additional consultations with Giten. This can also deepen the experience of Satsang.
This is an invitation to the sincere seeker of love and truth.
