Sacred Places and Ancient Ways

Welcome to our new programme of events, training and personal development in spiritual journeying (shamanism).

Shamanism is encounter in which a person learns humility, acquires an openness to other powers and comes to appreciate the world of nature. The term shaman derives from the Buddhist term sramana which means a person who has given…See More

Spiritual teacher Training at Eleusis

June 18, 2013 to June 21, 2013
At Eleusis we are concerned with a generic approach to spiritual development. It is a wonderful aspect of the modern world that we have available the wisdom of all the great religious and spiritual traditions. All these traditions are transmitted from generation to generation through the medium of heart to heart relationships. The teacher shows a lore. He or she declares a way and does so for the most part by living it. If others come for instruction this might be given didactically, but the…See More

Profile Information

About Me:
getting older I am happier, this is what spirituality is all about....I try to transmit to my students and clients how easy it is to be you, even there is no self...enjoying helping others, creativity, travels and painting.
Reconnected with my old passion Latin America, I suppose in these challenging changes it is good to be alive and be able to help still....My extended family it tibetan nepalese since forever my daughter and granddaughters are from a refugee camp in India and Milano born...my dogs are nepalese, my sister is dutch. I was born without nationality as bolivian, french in Leiden Netherlands and remained a homeless with so many houses to clean. Suitable profile for a buddhist. At this stage I might become a real nun but it is ok like this happy and busy lifestyle. Taking care of others and always remembering in 'the crisis' what it is all about...not materialism but breathe you are alive!
Faith Background & Affiliation
Studied with Amida, tibetan dharma previously and simultaneously
Occupation or Primary Activity
managing my own project in Kathmandu Nepal between 2 villages helping people
Involvement in Spirituality/Religion
Living near Kopan Monastery enjoying working with very spiritual people since a long time, practice gets stronger over the years, as fruits are so palpable. Have built 2 homes in Kathmandu, one to share with other practicioners, another one where my 'sons' study and live, so between retreats and samadhi there is the extended spiritual family.
Amida Kai remained, otherwise I am part of Mahayana tradition centres.
What is your interest in Amida Trust
working extensively in the east it is good to relate to western ways as well...Dharmavidya is an inspiring thinker, the books always helped me transition between my intuition of where I was heading and the old ways.
I am a former revolutionary, worked over a decade in Latin America, have this fondness for the poor and the vernacular. Was a journalist most of my life as well as translator. Thanks to the Trust and FPMT friends I am integrating spirituality and reality.
How did you find this web site?

What country are you living in?
between Kathmandu and old Amsterdam three times a year with tibetan family in Italy...........

Hi,

Ik ben soms in de buurt van Amsterdam dus we kunnen best iets regelen.

Ik ben nu hard bezig met het opzetten van mijn counsellingspraktijk en het geven van naikan workshops / retreats. Uiteindelijk gaat dit uitmonden in Naikan Centrum Nederland. Maar lees gerust mijn website. A.s. zondag is er een open dag in het Kwan Yin Huis in Eindhoven. Een zen centrum waar ook "andere richtingen" zeer welkom zijn. Erg mooi allemaal.

Groetjes, Gerald
