Celebrating 18 Years Open Sky House

Open Weekend at Open Sky House

18 Years Community! An extraordinary experiment in lived spirituality got to a mature age. The loving and powerful energy field of Open Sky House attracts every year many spiritual seekers, who are moved by: 

Who am I?

Last weekend we celebrated together, with Satsang, Mantra Concert, Creative Workshops, Sound Journey, Yoga, Meditation, Heart Dance, Art Exhibition, Film about the Community, delicious food and so many lovely heartful connections .

The weekend started out with Heart Dance – simple, meditative, joyful

Inspired by Sufism it`s a beautiful way to drop out of the mind, into the heart and surrender to the powerful energy of the circle. 

 

In the Energy of Satsang it is easy to connect to our True Self

Many came to the Open Day as they want to make a change in their life. Satsang with John David offered encouragement and inspiration to take new steps, and Guidance to get started. He also encouraged  for people to spend time volunteering in Open Sky House to get nourished from the community energy. 

Colourful and Touching Workshops

A Space to express and explore our creativity gives us a deep feeling of nourishment. Through Painting, Music, Theater, Dance, we were giving life to something from within ourselves.

Celebrating with Music

The Open Sky Band gave a Concert on Saturday Evening.
By the end everyone was lifted by the energy and danced in ecstatic Joy.
