BLISS OF BEING; JOY THAT COMES FROM WITHIN A Course with Giten,

14-15 December, 2019, in Stockholm

"The course with Giten opened a new way of living, a new way of being." - Deva Emanuel

Joy and happiness is a state of consciousness, a state of our being, which is not dependent on other people and outer circumstances.

To be joyful is the basic nature of life. Joy is the spiritual dimension of happiness, in which one begins to understand one's intrinsic value and place in the universe.

Accepting joy is a decision to "go with the flow," to be grateful to be alive and for all the challenges and opportunities in life, rather than setting conditions or demands for happiness.

Joy is the essence of our life.

Giten shares a unique perspective of accepting joy by being grateful for our life with its challenges and opportunities rather than placing a demand or setting conditions for it.

Giten encourages us to reconnect with the natural joy that we were born with, and that is available to us the moment we turn our attention to the silent space within.

Joy and bliss means you have reached to the depth of your inner being.

The being belongs to the depth of your being where even the ego is no more, where only silence prevails; you have disappeared. In joy you exist a little bit, but in bliss you are not. The ego has dissolved; it is a state of nonbeing.

In this course with Giten we will examine the nature of joy from a radically different perspective. We will examine joy as the essence of life. We will examine how to accept joy by being grateful to be alive and for the challenges and opportunities in life.

In this course we will examine joy and happiness as a state of consciousness, a state of being, which is not dependent on other people and circumstances, understanding the roots of unhappiness and misery, how joy is to enter into one's own self, which is to move from unhappiness to joy and happiness and how misery is an identification with our ego and how bliss is connected with egolessness.

This course is supported by satsang with Giten, which is a direct insight and realization of our being, our inner source of joy and bliss.

SWAMI DHYAN GITEN Swami Dhyan Giten has dedicated his life to teach the art of awareness and meditation. He conducts individual consultations, seminars and courses internationally. His quotes, articles and books have touched the hearts of thousands and are appearing with increasing frequency in magazines, blogs and websites.

Since he began to meditate when he was 15 years old, he has dedicated his life to the study and exploration of the inner journey in order to move out of his own way, to be in a flow, and to discover the authentic inner being, the meditative quality within, the inner silence and emptiness, the capacity to surrender to life.

He does not belong to any spiritual group or tradition; he is only interested to explore what it means to live with open eyes. In 1982, when Giten was 23 years old, he was directed by the Divine presence in a trance session with the American trance chancellor Lin David Martin: "You have listened to your intuition, to your true inner voice, more than most. You have been searching for the contact with the Spirit for a long time and now it is beginning to manifest on the outer plane. You have been gifted many times in previous embodiments and now everything will come rather easy for you. I want you to put your energy into the lives of others, because you can."

A spiritual teacher, who has counseled thousands of people, told Giten in 1984: “You will dissolve into the silence. All the earlier enlightened Masters and all the small Deva’s are just here to help you to get enlightened.”

He is author of the best-selling book in Swedish "Meditationens Sång - Om meditation, relationer och andlig kreativitet" (Solrosens forlag, 2001, available from Internet book store Adlibris: www.adlibris.com), and "The Silent Whisperings of the Heart - An Introduction to Giten's Approach to Life" (2008, available as paperback at Internet book store Lulu.com: www.lulu.com/spotlight/Giten), Presence - Working from Within. The Psychology of Being (2011, available as paperback at Internet book store Lulu:www.lulu.com/spotlight/Giten) and "The Language of Silence - From Darkness to Light" (available in paperback at Lulu.com: www.lulu.com/spotlight/Giten). His latest book has just been published, "Silence is the Way: The Teachings of Buddha" (available at Lulu: www.lulu.com/spotlight/Giten)
