About Me

I´m a Hare Krsna monk, living in a temple, dedicating my life to self-realization through the path of bhakti-yoga, devotional service. always open to meet people with different backgrounds and stories knowing that we can share and enrich each other.
before I worked a lot with people as a psychologist, I have spent 6 years at a psychiatric department of a hospital, seeing and hearing a lot... with this experience (also) I´m sure there is a lot to do inside and out :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

mainly I want to offer interested people a chance to come and experience a bit of the asram spiritual atmosphere, hear something from the Vedic philosophy on the self, the Superself, nature, existence, etc., chant the transcendental Hare Krsna Maha-mantra, the great chant of deliverance, but also share all the good vibes and love that is innate within everyone

the same applies when i´m on the road :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I´ve translated the comentaries on the Vedas by our Spiritual Master, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada from english into slovak language and printed the books, established a Hare Krsna asram in Vinodol, Nitra and now I practice bhakti-yoga there and invite everyone to come and take a dip also

What I Can Share with Hosts

nice, calm, spiritual atmosphere, deep discussions on the nature of being, knowledge, bliss and individuality, transcendental experience with the chanting of Maha-mantra, Hare Krsna, introduction to the techniques of bhakti-yoga, the topmost yoga system, opportunity to render a little devotional service to the Reservoir of all Pleasure, Lord Krsna :) and wonderful prasadam, which is spiritual, karma-free food cooked and offered with love and devotion to the Lord.
