My Personal Approach
- I have been seeking for truth since I can remember.
- I don't trust anything that anyone or any source says about absolute truth, unity, spirituality, and anything beyond being human — unless I can verify it through my own inner experience.
- Being born into this time and into this place means to me having the gift and the freedom to draw upon everything that people before me have experienced through practice and dedication to various lineages and schools, without having to uncritically submit myself to a single school or teacher, or having to accept things unquestioned.
- I distinguish between horizontal personal growth and vertical consciousness development, as well as the integration of both.
- All of this only is possible if I take full responsibility for everything I encounter.
- The intention: to align being human and being in transcendental experiencial states without disengaging from the world and its current state, and without giving up responsibility.
What I Offer
- Holding space for those who are on a similar journey and temporarily need a space held by someone else.
- Being a non-judging listening partner when things need to be witnessed.
- I won't explain a deeper truth to you, but I am available as a sounding board and a critical questioner if you want to critically examine your experiences.
- I can support you in reaching clarity when it becomes difficult or impossible to distinguish phenomena or experiences from different experiencial states on your own.
- Only when asked, and when it seems helpful in a specific situation, I can offer structures (most of which are not my own) to support discernment.
- I can support you in finding and developing your questions that give intention or direction for your further journey.
I do not offer a special path or practice to follow. Why would I? We live in an era in which, after millennia of preparatory work, it is possible to trust oneself and one's inner reference — a time in which we can simultaneously be teachers and students to one another. And: I give no promises of salvation. Enlightenment — regardless of its form — does not make life or being human "better" or "easier". It only makes it more complex and, at best, more lively. The decision to chose such a path must be made by each and every individual for themselves.
Examples of Formats I Offer:
- Enlightenment Intensive retreats as developed by Charles and Ava Berner
- Dyad based contemplation groups
- Individual support and companionship for independent contemplative seekers on their individual journey
- Integration groups and processes (work at the intersection of horizontal and vertical)
And now?
This individual way of seeking and of being in the world calls you? You have further questions? You are "stuck" on your individual path? you need "another" to communicate to, or an "external witness"? Please don't hesitate to get in touch, whatever it is. This is something we can talk about. And: the first consultation is free.
