Awakened Heart with Satyaa & Pari

We can work on ourselves continuously, and there will always be something to do. It may even take tremendous effort to achieve effortlessness, and although this may seem like a contradiction, Satyaa and Pari share what this is all about in this episode. They also lovingly discuss what “working hard on oneself” really has to do with the true Self.

Our world is becoming increasingly complex, and the question is how the search for truth can help us deal with this. In this episode, Satyaa shares her personal approach to this and also provides insights into her own spiritual path of searching, which can have many analogies. This is an inspiration to listen for dealing with the inner and outer world.

How can it be that couples who have been together for years or even decades are very familiar with each other's habits and preferences, yet still don't know each other in a positive sense? They meet in each other in a way where every moment is new and fresh, as if they see each other for the first time. In this episode, Satyaa & Pari explain what is meant by the statement “You never know your part...

In this episode, Satyaa talks about the time after Papaji left his body and how a group from the community went to Thiruvannamalai. Intuitively, she knew that with the grace of Mount Arunchala, she felt she no longer needed to seek, and that a new phase of her life was beginning. For her, it was clear that seeking truth was not a lifestyle, but rather complete surrender. This is a loving insight i...

How much do we project onto a master, and how much should we devote ourselves to what we are seeking? What happens when we allow ourselves to be guided without becoming dependent? And how does the ego become humble, so that we think we are doing everything and following no one, and at the same time we do everything our master asks of us because we feel so much trust and love? This is a beautiful e...

Today, there is a wide variety of different types of yoga, and in this episode, Satyaa talks about how she came to Kundalini Yoga, which dates back to Yogi Bhajan and has its roots in the Sikh tradition.

Music is a powerful healing tool and Satyaa & Pari just share who they are trough music. In this episode, Satyaa gives us some insights while she sings. For her, singing is also something very personal, but she trusts that everyone who feels touched by it shares the devotion to the divine. We also get to hear a great preview of a new song: Satyam Gnayam Anatam Brahman.

The first time when Satyaa went to Puna, there was a trance dance, and she was in complete bliss for weeks. She was dancing things which she has never danced before and from her point of view, everybody has the same ability to dance like this. But we have grown up with the concept of right and wrong with the result to hesitate to express ourselves completely. In this episode Satyaa sheds light on...

Are we ready to let go of all our concepts and practices that we believe we need to have to reach our goal? When we look at Satsang and singing Mantras, is there really a distinction? Although Satsang is musicless and music is Satsangless, they are actually the same. In this episode Satyaa and Pari share how everything has started. They had a sincere and deep desire to share their devotion for lov...

Meeting this mountain of presence, of love, of conscious being was overwhelming for Pari when he met Papaji the first time. Instinctively he knew that he will not survive this. In this episode, Satyaa and Pari take us to Lucknow and share their first time with Papaji, who lived freedom and love in the day-to-day life and that was just one gift of this beautiful being.

The younger generation in particular is confronted with a flood of information and new technologies that have an impact on how we interact with others, but also with ourselves. What could we say to a 14-year-old girl to encourage her to be herself? Satyaa has a very powerful message to share and shows us how to make peace with our own imperfections.

Mantras have the power to make our mind quiet. For example Mantras from the Kundalini tradition have a certain depth and are connected to some Masters, but there is no recipe because everyone has to make their own experiences. In this episode Satyaa shares about her intention to sing Mantras and why she loves to express her love and devotion in the form of music.

Spirituality can be seen as something very intimate and yet it may has happened to one or the other to want to convince others because we believe that it would be best for others too. How do we integrate the diamonds of love and truth, especially when we meet people who have different views? Papaji once said 'Don't share diamonds with pigs', but what does it actually mean? We are all free and livi...

Assuming we are with someone, are we still alone? In this episode, we shed light on the commitment to love and truth that Satyaa and Pari make to each other every day.

It is an invitation to enhance each other to devote our loving attention to what always is, and they...

When Satyaa was in Pune she danced a lot, but also Papaji loved to see her dancing. Once he told her ‘Only the one can dance who has no fear’. It was and still is a beautiful way to express all the emotions, which arise and to see how fast an emotion can change if we do not reject them. In this episode we explore the power of dancing, but also what Satyaa would do in case she would have the chance...

For many spiritual seekers it is essential at one point to meet a master. But how to find one? Often it is not obvious or immediately visible, and yet life gives us unmistakable signs, as it did for Satyaa when she heard about Papaji from three different sources in one day. In this episode, Satyaa and Pari share how Papaji entered their lives and how it was, without any doubt, clear from the begin...

At the beginning it could be possible not to see the luck when we have the chance to be with a master. In addition to the loving care of a master, meeting someone like this could also be direct and confrontational, which serves to let go of one's own concepts and ideas of how something should be. Also, Pari felt at the time when he stayed with Papaji immediately the sweet connectedness with him ti...

In this episode, Satyaa and Pari give some insights into the time spent with Papaji as their beloved master, living in his grace and walking the path of the pathless to this today. The beauty of being with a being like Papaji is that everyone gets exactly what they need according to their own development. Although it was probably easy to overlook his enlightenment because of his ordinary way of li...

This episode with Satyaa is a dedication to trust the moment and follow our intuition. We are living indeed in a time that is more uncertain what we have been used to be. At the same time this is also a good opportunity to stay in the here and now. Satyaa beautifully highlights the importance to learn to listen what comes and to trust that. Especially when our mind creates some worries or when we...

In recent years, true hotspots like those in Costa Rica or Portugal have emerged all over the world, visited by seekers of all walks of life with the aim to finally 'arrive'. Arillas, a small Greek village on Corfu, has also become part of this development. But what is behind this phenomenon that spiritual seekers feel magically attracted to such places, often without knowing exactly why?

Times have always been exciting, and now we are experiencing an intense time due to technological developments that makes many things possible, but also leads to a lot of loneliness. Being with like-minded people can provide a great support for each of us allowing the manifestation of happiness also on social level. In this episode, we hear why it is so important right now to cultivate these conne...

In this episode, we shed light on the difference between taking and receiving. In a culture of consumers, we are used to getting things to fill our bags. This may be a good starting point at the beginning when we search for happiness, but finally we have to discover that we, as the Self, are the source of happiness and that nothing was ever missing. This enables us to see that the receiver and the...

For more than 20 years, Satyaa and Pari have been opening their doors in Corfu to share their dedication for truth and love. The original idea was to offer a combination of singing and Satsang outside of the context of a normal seminar house. It all started with a seminar called 'Garden of Peace'. This episode unfolds why Satyaa and Pari encourage participants not to follow them, but to discover t...

The sweet love affair with Papaji was and still is characterized by a deep connection that cannot be put into words and at the same time it is not just connection because connection is based on separation. Ordinary love affairs usually have a beginning and an end and need some personal involvement, but in this highest love affair possible all things disappear. It is like a duett of one. It starts...
