CURRENT MISSION
Inside, outside - become one

ABOUT ME
See references for hints

I love simple and intuitive life.

Resident of Zen centers for some years now, used to life on retreat schedules (up to three months, very strict and silent) and all of this changed my life a lot. For instance I´m being quite uninterested in many dramas and thrills this world offers :)

To see people TRULY happy is a great joy for me. To see people change their mindsets and experience when people are HERE, when we are HERE together - that´s my real hapiness.

Constantly working on putting down all the garbage - emotions, life plans, past, future, conditions,likes and dislikes. So I try, try, try.
Be exposed and vulnerable to whatever the moment brings - difficult. Failed million times, but try again, allways, that´s my way.
Persistent, stubborn, with incredible inner endurance.
Sometimes to the point of being stupid.

Great love, great sadness.
This is sometimes killing me. I feel people´s energy real well and have great empathy with things people dont even know they have inside.

I´m an alien in the culture that marks, divides, sells and consumes everything - including Love, Honesty and Friendship.
People say I don´t fit into this age, but thats only about feelings.

Expecting the best of you ... without actually expecting anything at all. The way you do things says it all.

PHILOSOPHY

-Attainment through self discipline

-Go beyond beyond. Once there, go beyond.

-Stop searching, only decide and do it

-All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost...

-Gods of Man do not dwell in the city centres, suburbs nor offices.

-Life has absolutely no meaning at all, life just IS. Once you truly "get" this, Big Meaning of life appears by itself

-Man becomes Man in spite of Women.Woman becomes Woman only when safe and secure with Man. Man is bigger, yet Woman is more important.

-Coming empty-handed, going empty-handed - that is human
