Introduction

Where there are questions there are answers, in one way we are all mediators of the one same message, in individual ways on this journey.

This journey is as unique as the unconditional free will of the living being. But what unites us all is the eternal, indestructible, transcendental soul.

This entity is absolute and a perfect, qualitative and original message of God in our life, heart and personality.

This uniqueness lays primordially as a source of life, consciousness and bliss within oneself.

This source is a seed of one’s eternal, conscious and blissful nature.

Both the personal origin of an individual and the ultimate goal are one.

Every journey is a soul journey, the search a soul search.

Every movement is a movement of the ensouled living being having an experience of birth, youth, old age and passing away in the world.

This journey is spiritual and wonderful, unique and beautiful.

Life is unity, balance and natural difference. The pursuit of this and the natural, God-given presence of life make it possible to experience bliss and harmony.

Balance begins in the heart of the soul, and continues through all layers into life.

Life gave me a balance, which I would like to share with you.

Everyone seeks a connection of honesty, trust and purity with God, with oneself and with fellow human beings.
This connection is based on universal laws that have been mentioned in sacred scriptures, and today find their own expressions, on the whole all scriptures confirm a truth that can be found in transcendental sound meditation.

In this truth lies the centre and the scale of our existence, which acts as a basis through balance and thus becomes alive.

The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, speaks in the Vedas:

'Of all creations I am the beginning, the end and also the middle, O Arjuna. Of all sciences I am the spiritual science of the Self, and among the logicians I am the conclusive truth.'

(Bhagavad-Gita, 10.32)

"He who seeks, finds, who asks, is given to him, who knocks, is opened to him, is that the truth, or is it what we perceive? As a state of mind, born out of the will?

I am silent, I learn and ask, I sit and listen, I humbly submit to the false pride and prestige that I have done is also just a touch in the midst of life."

(Chapter: Love in Christ)

"O Kṛṣṇa- Thank you, I thank you and I thank you. Even the gratitude of you. Accept me as I am with all my vice and reproach, with all the heaviness and violence, with sin and ignorance imperfect and ultimately all one, to long to be detached, free from misery and tendency in harmony with the eternal presence, where oh how do I get to you?"

(Chapter: Unity in Krishna)

"Keep the equanimity.

Whatever comes, a good of thoughts, emotions or physical sensations, stay in balance and make friends with them. Find peace in every wave that comes and goes, in the continuity of your self.

Breathe naturally and let it flow rhythmically, close your eyes, find peace.

Smile"

(Chapter: Peace in Buddha)

PLUS - Homecoming - Jan Wolter (Yaśomatīnandana dāsa)

Homecoming

The journey continues. In this issue of "Travel, Learn, Grow" called Homecoming we find the source of inspiration that lies located in all of us. The truth needs instructions otherwise we will grope in the dark. The light of the revealed writings illuminates the path, like a map, for the journey of life.

Where the most sacred place in the world is, who lives there and how EVERYONE gets there, this becomes clear in this book.

The intention behind these texts lies in the realisation of not only a conditional body and mental concept, but a living, eternal soul that seeks an immediate experience with the Absolute Truth.

In doing so, I, the travelling secretary, will philosophically accompany the various chapters with these topics from the Bhagavad Gita and the Bible. The stories of the numerous trips should thus be made palatable to spiritual aspirants and seekers.

Blessed, who hunger and thirst for justice, for they will be saturated.

(Mark 5:6)

Alas, we journey with many stories, analogies, sayings and by the guidance of ancient wisdom to personal growth in pure consciousness.

Come along on a journey HOME which will last forever.

Cover story

Eternal. A short word for a small infinity.

As in the name of heaven, how does a human even come up with this idea?

What does life tell us that we assume an infinite relationship beyond birth and death?

There, in the middle of this question, stands the eternal Self, untouched and free, eternal and indestructible.

Eternal life is in us, and the centre of this world.

Anyone who knows believes and consciously accepts this can enter the eternal, golden age of humanity.

The truth never remains silent, even though it hears everything and is personal.

Get to know this place and join us on a journey that leads you to the eternal source of knowledge, from where everything said can be learned.

The time of empty words is over because what remains is eternity.

“This supreme science was thus received through the chain of disciplic succession, and the saintly kings understood it in that way. But in course of time, the succession was broken, and therefore the science as it appears to be lost."

One day the traveller left the house in search of the delight.

„A story of happiness weaves into philosophy and spiritual guidance, well worth a read.“

„Based on scriptural evidence this work delivers timeless advice.”

“Joyful, like a dance.”

„We take Traveling seriously, we take it as our lives and soul, we know there is an endless goal, that is to come back home to the Supreme Truth personified.“ On my journey I must admit there were many lessons to be learned. In a matter of fact, I learned counting the years, 10, and I thought: What is this life? Is it a play, a story to be told, a wonderful adventure? All-inclusive, and who we meet even better. In due course of over ten years of traveling I have collected substantial amounts of writings and diary entries which show the odds of life, ups and downs as well as a beautiful transformation, hence the big themes are LOVE, PEACE & UNITY which are in constant change. The only factual constant I found on this travel was SPIRIT or God. Thus, I wanted to bring alive an interplay of these factors in-between humans and nature, the divine, time and the many actions we do. One of these actions, inevitably is traveling. Traveling is not just a vacation, it is serious business. The Spiritual Traveler knows, the journey is for self discovery and that is the highest purpose we can consider, following in the footsteps of many walking saints and spiritual sages. Finally, this book is to remind ourselves to live simply and from the heart. Human connections, brotherhood, hospitality etc. are all included in this life’s play, as well as feelings for belonging, restlessness and a little humour. This book is part one of two and aims at being the manuscript for a theatre play, musical, film and self-help guide.

Optimism is the hope for creating a better life for everyone, but as it is, similar to the weather, circumstances cannot always be calculated accurately. There is always room for manoeuvre.
In this life we have received a human form and now? Be wise, and preserve the world.
But what does that even mean? Scientists call this human form 'Homo sapiens' - the wise human being.
To say wisely; this life is destined for the awareness of the Supreme Truth and to be happy in this awareness.
We confidently go this way together, but only slowly and arduously do we learn to fall and practice getting up again.
Learning life requires patience and raising awareness of good instructions and community. Happiness then comes by itself.
Anyone who adopts this natural life path can immediately free the Supreme Good for people and make the world a better place.
A sustainable, constant self-confidence wants to serve all people well so that this world remains and becomes a nice, even beautiful world for future generations.
“Be the change you want to see in the world.”
(Instruction of Mahatma Gandhi)
Live as an example and act conscientiously.

We encounter a nature, a stunning and yet vulnerable side of life.
We face the people of a world in distress & happiness.
We write and travel on.

'I'm still searching for enlightenment...', he answered with an open heart but a lost soul as his eyes are hanging with the drugged disease of mind. He started to smoke.
'You will find it, One day.'

One day we have to go on a travel for self-realization, what are you waiting for?
Life is made for a higher experience.

Down by the river, we hold on
to embrace nature’s temple
Low in the Valley, fiery-red,
we came to walk upon
ancient ground’s sample
of what it was like to step

Into a sanctuary, peacefully still
only reality through natures will
so majestic, so pure and Zion;
But then. They kill the void, the equanimity to spill

We are personalities and this makes this book so special: the variegated characters of the worlds people.
