Intermiscence - Kena Upanishad
I'm just back from devotions and meditation. It's the anniversary of Sri Aurobindo. He left his body 72 years ago, as they say here. I've spent the last few days reflecting and talking a lot about his commentaries on the Kena Upanishad. I came across the word ‚intermiscence‘ there. It's used almost exclusively by Aurobindo. I asked everyone I met what the word meant. A friend here found a translation into German: ‚ineinanderfließen‘ (it describes in German...

What to do?
The last time I seriously wondered what I should do was during college. I studied philosophy, and I was often asked what I wanted to do with it. What a stupid question, I always thought.

Meditation notes - 6.10.22 Matrimandir
Today, I finally went to the Matrimandir for the first time. Six years ago, I had a guided tour, which is a prerequisite for going alone later. It also makes sense to have a general idea of what kind of place it is, how to behave there, and what would disturb others. During my Monday meditations in Zen-Kreis Bremen, I was often drawn here. It was a place of peace and strength. Sometimes it seemed as if it wanted to tell me something. Well, it has...
