Light, Life & Love:
Silence – The Door to the Divine
Christmas Celebration and satsang with Giten, 24 December, in Stockholm
Satyama Padma under Christmas Celebration med Giten, 24 december, 2016
“Satsang with Giten is like a scent, a flowering of This is it.”
Satyama Padma, Stockholm
“Satsang with Giten is a taste of the eternal, a taste of the timeless. It can feel like we sat for 3 hours, while we only sat for 40 minutes.
I was so afraid that I would lose the silence that I had found during satsang in India, but I found the silence again in satsang with Giten.
Satsang with Giten is like coming home. I went into samadhi three times during a satsang weekend with Giten – and I also got a map and an understanding for how to go into samadhi again.
Before I started to attend satsang, I did not think that enlightenment was possible, but now I feel that it is possible.
Satsang with Giten confirms what I have really always known.”
– Satyama Padma, Stockholm, from the foreword to Giten’s latest book on the teachings of Buddha
A loving invitation to Giten’s friends and sangha, who have previously participated in satsang with Giten, to a Christmas celerbration with satsang and darshan.
Satsang with Giten is a meeting in love, truth and silence. Satsang with Giten is a direct insight and realization of being.
“The Upanishadic vision of life is that the universe is an organic whole. We are all existing in a togetherness. The trees, the flowers, the stones, the birds, the mountains and the stars are all interlinked. The part represents the whole. Nothing is lower, nothing is higher – all is one. The smallest blade of grass is connected with the farthest stars.”
– Swami Dhyan Giten, from satsang, November 2, 2017, in Stockholm
During this satsang and darshan, Giten will talk about the Upanishads as the fundament for everyone interested in meditation. The theme for the day is Life, Light and Love: Silence – The Door to the Divine.
Background to The Upanishads:
This is an introduction to the essentials of Vedic wisdom for blissful living and the eternal wisdom of the Vedic enlightened rishis. Giten will endeavor to explain not just the grand design of the universe, but also how the the teachings of the Upanishads can be used to lead a blissful life amid the present day chaos, stress and confusion.
In this satsang weekend Giten takes the Upanishads and responds to it in a way that helps present-day seekers penetrate their unconscious and find the truth within themselves. This uncovering of the self is the ultimate alchemy.
Giten describes, step by step, the search within, the search for the essence, for what is divine within man. This essence is variously known as the self, the atman, the soul, in the ancient teachings of earlier Masters.
Giten says that he warn you in advance that to involve oneself in the teachings of the Upanishads is like playing with fire. An Upanishad cannot be understood without you also becoming transformed.
In understanding the Upanishads, doors will open to the most profound understanding known to the genius of man. The Upanishads is the secret of secrets, the mystery within all mysteries, the essence of essences.
