Love in a lychee garden…

5 days dedicated to letting go of preconceived ideas, beliefs and conditionings around 'what love is'. That's what these Chinese friends set themselves for in this beautiful Lychee orchard near Shenzhen. It certainly was not an easy task at times, but their readiness to move inwards, their willingness to face themselves took care of the obstacles that came their way and for sure new faces and open hearts were at the 'rendezvous' at the end of these 5 days.
It is always a very touching experience for me to witness these changes. And the more I let my passion for this work flow, the more joy comes in too.
Now it is time for me to enjoy the Chinese art of drinking tea. Whether, Green, Oolong or Pu'her, there is always a chance for direct experience in a Chinese cup of tea!
Namaste to you all

True nature shines at Osho Leela

For a whole week existence gave me the opportunity to offer and facilitate two 'Love in Awareness intensives' back to back. A first one for the community residents and straight after one open to all. As I look back on this week, I just feel baffled and in awe by what this opportunity created. So many open faces, so many open hearts, so much love and care flowing. Joy, gratefulness and a delicious sweet smile arises on my face as I feel so nourished by the willingness, the constant intention and the integrity shown by each and every one of these participants, each in their own way, each in their own measure. To be the witness of this happening certainly touches a sense of beauty in me. To me it is like seen a flower blooming or a butterfly spreading his wings for the first time. The idea of beauty may be a man made concept; yet existence does certainly provide the material for it!
Abundance and generosity also overflowed from to the community members when they supported the second intensive. One could feel that their heart was also in the food they prepared for us, in the all the little practical details that goes around such a process. Everyone felt happy to hear that there will be a similar opportunity next spring.
Living our true nature can only make the world a little 'greener', a little brighter, a little more playful, joyful, a little more loving. Come and join the 'dance' next time it happens….
Namaste to you all
