This morning we arrived in Lausanne. Bertrand, my friend with whom we will stay for this week, picked us up at the train station and brought us home to his house. It is in a very small village in the hills 'behind' Lausanne. From there you have a wonderful view on the mountains around.
In the evening there was Darshan. We had a good atmosphere and I explained that Darshan is for opening the heart chakra. We have to dissolve the blockages there. If there are blockages, how can we give love? How can we receive love? We have to open our hearts. And in my Darshan I am giving the key for that: Let your feelings flow. It is so simple but it can be very difficult for some of you. We have been taught in this society to suppress our feelings. What kind of society is it when tears are considered as a weak point? I want to ask you to please let it flow! When you are sad, please cry. When you are happy, please laugh. Be proud of who you are and what your feelings are! Then you can let them flow and then you can open your heart to the love that is flowing between us all.

Too many people just say they trust in God and his actions – but if you want to reach somewhere and do something in life, you need to act yourself! It does not help to just sit there and have faith. Lose your faith, get out of your chair and out into the real world!
SourceGod doesn’t want to own a house or a temple, he is just there, living in our heart. It is the greed of people who want to own land – and if they can possess it on the name of God, they do.
SourceSometimes the outcome is simply not in our control, so stop thinking about what could have happened if you had taken another decision.
SourceYou cannot buy anybody’s love. If you want love, give love. The world of love is very different from this material world. Not even a millionaire can buy someone’s love. Maybe their body but not their love.
SourceFear is an illusion and it spoils your life. If you are afraid, you cannot enjoy. You are fine and you are able to cope with the situations that life brings you. Have trust in whatever is out there in this universe. The whole world is there for you, not against you. Let your fear go. Live.
SourceI welcome, not only in my home but in my life, those people who either don’t have any expectations or whose expectations I can fulfill. I want people in my life who respect my feelings and care for my happiness as well as their own happiness. I apply a filter at the entrance to my heart, too, so that I can let those in who will make me happy and whom I can make happy.
SourceInsecurity in life makes you need assurance by others!
SourceFascinated by celtic or Native American spirituality? Think of their bloody cruelty, too!
SourceReal Sadhus have fully renounced from worldly life and don’t ask money of tourists!
SourceMen wrote the scriptures saying that women should grieve forever once they are dead. For themselves there is no such rule. They would not have put anything in the scriptures that would cause them a disadvantage!
SourceThe scriptures of any religion, culture or country can be written by very intelligent people of old times and we can see them as great literature but they should not be taught to children as ideals of how to behave though. They are fiction and many of them are full of blood and violence, creating an illusion for children that this behavior could be religious and good.
SourceI don’t like rules but I like discipline. It makes your will power strong.
SourceNot rarely you can see that yoga or meditation gurus mix two common practices and call it their own, put a patent on it and then sell it.
SourceEnlightenment is being in love.
SourceSometimes religion is like poison. Look at these people who gather others around themselves, making up their own ‘religion’ by interpreting some scripture in their own way and create rules. It steals the freedom of the mind. You need to know yourself what is right for you and everybody has different ideas of what is good or bad, right or wrong.
SourceYou are loveable, lovely and loving. You don’t need to do any change to yourself to please another person. You don’t need to play a role or wear a mask. This world is so big and there are so many different people in this world that it is normal if a few don’t agree with you or don’t like you. Stop comparing and just be yourself.
SourceLove cannot grow if you don’t have closeness. Sometimes it is very hard to get close to someone. Sometimes there is physical closeness but no closeness of the heart, sometimes the mind is close but nothing else. You cannot establish a strong relationship if you don’t accept full closeness.
SourceIn a relationship you have to dissolve your ego without any expectations to the other one. If you don’t want to dissolve your ego, why do you want a relationship?
SourceNever feel like a sinner. God does not punish you, he loves you.
SourceYou cannot bargain with God and give a big donation for a big wish and a few coins for a small one. You give it to the temple, not to God. God doesn’t care about money.
