On the road Koans...

I'm now back in France and sitting in a cozy friend's home near Bordeaux; I turn around and look through the window to be amazed by a blooming cherry tree in the garden dancing in the light breeze and silently sharing its fragrance and white flowers with whoever cares to pay attention.
The sound of silence is never too far away!
My Thailand days are now over for now and soon I'll be on the road again to facilitate Awareness Intensives – there will be 2 'Love in Awareness intensives' at Osho Leela at the end of this month, the first one for the community there and the second one open to all.
A week of love and awareness; what more would one wants!

Whilst in Thailand, 'riding the bull home', existence gave me the opportunity to come in contact with some living Koans, like...
Beauty is!




And also, testing my own direct experience with them.

Tell me what Trust is!

I also had the opportunity to take part in a 21-day Darkness Retreat. Imagine, 21 days in full darkness! Nothing else to see but darkness wherever I turned my eyes, whether outside or inside! It was like being in a dark cave with only one thing to do, turn in!
For the full account, check 'a darkness adventure'.

As the financial crisis strikes everywhere, the March 'Returning to the source' in Odessa had to be cancelled; it will be replaced with a 'Love in Awareness intensive' early May. Dates are now confirmed; check the 'Upcoming events' page.

Looking forward meeting you again soon somewhere…
Namaste to you all
