The past few days it has been pretty cold and from a material perspective living in a yurt with a small heater is considered backward. But this place, Audarya, knows no time and the service here heats us up. The world out there moves on while everything here is small scale. I once talked to [...]

As in every monastery, this monastery has a daily schedule as well. My day usually starts when my alarm clock goes off at 4.20 am. Time to run to the bathhouse and take a shower. Dress up in devotional clothes and walk to the temple building. A few minutes of meditation before mangala arati, morning [...]

Lots going on

This has been a busy day with more and more the realization of the harmony that is going on here. The harmony of working for once cause. I will try to take a series of photos to give everyone an idea of how life works around here in the forests.
It is pretty cold here too [...]

I said goodbye to Warner and took the 108 to downtown SF. From there the 80 would take me on a 2,5 hour ride to Santa Rosa. When the bus stopped and I stepped inside the bus driver looked at me and said: “Okay, we have a problem.” Perplexing me, he told me it was [...]

Most hindus who have visited Vrindavan will know that loi bazar is the shopping street to get dhotis, saris, and many other devotional items. But I didn’t come here for shopping. Alright [...]

yes i’m still alive. everything is fine, internet is kind of slow, so no real updates untill i get back to holland the 17th. I’m having a real good time here, listening to lectures, waking up at 4.20 in the mornings, going to temples.
Radhe Radhe!

“Cabin crew, please take your seats.” Tomorrow morning, this will be the moment to close my eyes and catch up with some sleep. Two weeks of joy and bliss mixed with glasses stealing monkeys and health hazards are coming up. But no need to make a big fuss about it. We have good guides and [...]
