Welcome Home,
Welcome to Satsang!
Your longing for freedom finds an end here.
Satsang = Meeting in Truth
Satsang is a Hindu term that refers to a common gathering of spiritually seeking people. The idea is to meditate, sing, discuss and be inspired together in an atmosphere of silence and mutual exchange. Satsang is also often referred to as the “chanting of truth” and is intended to deepen spiritual practice and achieve higher consciousness.

Satsang - Meaning
Sat = Truth, Sangha, = Coming together
Satsang = Coming together in Truth
Satsang means coming together in the quest to explore the Nature of our True Self. The word comes from Sanskrit (the ancient Indian Language) and points to a meeting of Spiritual Seekers with a Self-Realised Master.
Satsang opens your heart and quiets your mind. Everybody is welcome! It`s a space for a deep meeting with yourself beyond roles, thoughts and feelings. A space to reconnect with what is of most value to you, ask your innermost questions and allow yourself just to be.
Most of the time in our ordinary lives, we are not very aware of our essence, and often not very connected to it. Our life is run by desires, fears and goals. The energy of Satsang supports us to focus inside and meet our own source, our true Self. With this deep connection to our being we can be really present for every moment of our life and experience the enormous love and peace which is always there.
Satsang can help identify and overcome our limiting beliefs and thought patterns that keep us from living our innermost longing for freedom. It is an opportunity to connect with other like-minded people and support each other on our spiritual path.
Satsang in Cologne
Satsang with John David near Cologne (at Open Sky House Hitdorf)
Satsang often starts with a brief period of silence followed by a talk or an invitation to ask questions. Everything happens spontaneously. You may participate by simply listening to and absorbing the sense of freedom and peace, or you may choose to become more actively involved in a dialogue with John David.
John David is no longer offering regular satsang. However, you are invited to sign up for one of the retreats or the helper week at Open Sky House. These are wonderful opportunities to meet John David.
