  • Description

    ~ ~ ~ Namaste ~ ~ ~

    This crazy age makes me feel that we should not 'wait' for the "New Earth", but we should foster it by serving in respect for each other.
    With steady service in devotion for the divine, in self observance with love for life is the way I like to live.
    In the course of my stays in Auroville, India I realized harmony is something we are all looking for and to work in Peace & Harmony and to serve by that work for a community I can live with is the most natural way to live.

    I am striving for a long-term collaboration, as nature and friendships need to grow.

  • What else ...

    About me in brief and my life the recent years:
    I am from Germany, a quiet open-minded, honest person, single, almost vegetarian, not strictly anymore (since VB12 deficiency and resulting health conditions), have no pets (but like animals especialy cats) and appreciate silence and time for mediation and contemplative walks in the nature.

    In Auroville I have been living for 4 years as a volunteer, and many more stays there since 2008. Media work, administrating art works and farm and garden work were my main tasks.

    My interest in astrology accompanies me in my personality development on my life journeys.
    On this path of transformation, I have been drawn to Auroville, India again and again for the past 12 years, where I have practised selfless service (almost) each time of stay.
    So inevitably this journeys has led to a development of insight and contentment with a simple life; with love for life and gratitude for what is essential; So I came to a level on which I got rid of most worldly desires.

    I never want to live in a big city anymore since I am touched by the divine I found in the woods and nature, in gardens and farms.
    And felt the work on land, in the gardens, being in contact with the soil and plants has a positive energetic effect to my well-being.
    I am used to do a little Yoga in the morning (and Evening) and would love to extend my discipline.

    Since I had gained a good insight into the background of Covid and the related global changes, it has become a need for me to create something together with people in order to achieve a self-sustaining life as far as possible.
    May peace and co-operation reign on earth.
