Yoga & Self-love, Love & Enlightenment
Not everyone who practice yoga has enlightenment in mind. Yet I am certain that most persons who do yoga frequently do so because they feel “lighter” after a class. I was first drawn to yoga because it suggests potential (!) enlightenment to serious practitioners. But also consider that enlightenment is a lightness of heart. How is that […]
Light of All Light
Light of All light is a music production I created as a seed for peace. It hints at a metaphysical-spiritual notion that there is “a greater Light” behind the “ordinary light” of the world. That peace is always there, thought mostly buried under layers of outer conflict. When one connects with the conscious awareness of inner peace, it begins to […]
Healing = awareness of the whole
The whole truth can only be the whole truth. Healing = whole. Whole = consciousness. Consciousness springs from awareness. Healing is big topic, and a most important one of our time. It appears as if the planet is divided in two camps; those searching for ways to protect its natural recourses and find personal […]
Surf Yoga Muizenberg, Cape Town
For me the ocean and riding a wave fully rivals the pleasure I derive from yoga. In fact riding a perfect wave perfectly perhaps exceeds yoga 🙂 Paddling out on a glassy ocean, light on the water, reflecting the sky, is a liquid, dream version of meditation, so powerful. If you live in Muizenberg, love the sea, and work for yourself, […]

My online yoga classes
For me the only thing that beats teaching a yoga class is doing yoga on my own. These are two very different ways of practicing yoga. So much so that, superficial resemblance aside, the two are practically not all the same. In a yoga studio the teacher acts as a guide, making room for the […]
No mind is everything
No mind, the Zen practice of awareness, shows us soon as the thinking mind stops, true self emerges, and the above statement becomes true. The thinking mind cannot grasp this, and does not want to subject itself to this bigger reality. Should it do so it seizes to exist, and it’s game over for the […]
Soaking mind and body in India & Self-realisation
Immersed in Rishikesh, India. Historically one of the most yogic areas on the planet, a culture in stark contrast to the Western world I live in. A decisive feature of India is becoming, for me, a seemingly built-in philosophy of self-realisation. On the surface there is much ritual and religion, and the next level of various means of full-time […]
A loose arrangement, with inner focus, and cosmic connection
There is something timelessly beautiful about a clean, elegant, functional, simplistic and sensitive design. This is also how it is when we inhabit our bodies, poised, in a comfortable arrangement of muscle and bone, a display of posture and movement, with the inner focus of the Zen art of flower arrangement. A Zen flower arrangement has what some […]
