Online Shibir with Swamiji - with English translation

Saturday, December 21 2024, 12:30 pm CET / 6:30 am EST

Use this unique opportunity!

On the occasion of the first World Meditation Day on Saturday, December 21, Swamiji will give a live online discourse from India, for which there will also be a simultaneous English translation!

The discourse will take place around 12:30 p.m. CET, 6:30 a.m. EST. Here are the YouTube links:

I would like to share with you how I manage to hear both Swamiji's original voice and the English translation, because it is important for me to hear both:

I have my notebook computer on the floor in front of me with the Hindi broadcast, so I hear Swamiji's voice in the room. At the same time, I receive the international broadcast with English translation on my mobile, and I hear the English translation directly via my headset. This way I can understand what Swamiji is saying, and at the same time, I feel his voice in the room.

What is Samarpan Meditation?

Recognize your Soul – a Gift from the Himalayas

Quote from samarpanmeditationuk.org

Samarpan Meditation is a way to go within, to discover the wealth of wellbeing, satisfaction and happiness that lies within each one of us. It isn’t a religion or a philosophy. It’s not necessary to believe or disbelieve; just opening to the experience of our own hidden intelligence – the guru within – brings immeasurable benefits, no matter who we are, or what we believe in.

Samarpan Meditation is very simple and based on the principle of inner experience. It is a gateway to personal transformation, peace, happiness and satisfaction in life. As we go deeper into the practice of ‘being with our soul’ then we start receiving guidance from within.

Samarpan Meditation has been handed down over 800 years from one teacher to one pupil, but after many years of spiritual practice in the Himalayas, His Holiness Shree Shivkrupanand Swami returned with a wish to share the meditation with anyone who wanted to learn, and impart the same experiences that he had received in the Himalayas.  It has been developed for the present-day need and it has spread around the globe, being practiced by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide.

The meditation causes a spiritual energy – the Kundalini energy that lies dormant inside us – to awaken. This inner wisdom results in positive changes across many areas of life. These changes are personal and unique to each of us, but some of the benefits that people experience with consistent meditation are

  • less stress and tension
  • more energy and motivation
  • a more positive outlook on life
  • an increase in natural immunity and improved health
  • inner joy and satisfaction, and
  • a deeper spiritual connection and genuine peace.

New to Samarpan Meditation ?

Although Samarpan Meditation is utterly simple, it is recommended to participate in an Introduction Workshop or to watch one of the official recordings of such a workshop, so you learn first-hand how to do this wonderful meditation.

Below recording of an introductory session was published on the official Gurutattva YouTube channel from Swamiji where you find a host of vidoes about Samarpan Meditation and about Swamiji.

The introductor workshop in this video was conducted by Samarpan Meditation USA. On their website, you find many more videos and information.

Samarpan Meditation – free of charge for everybody

A note on my own behalf

Dear Friends!

In almost every one of my videos, I talk about Samarpan Meditation. I had already been on my spiritual path for 20 years and was happy and content when this gift from the Himalayas came to me and gave my life a completely new direction – the direction inside, an "inside" that I had not known until then.

However, Samarpan Meditation has nothing to do with me. I have simply been a meditator since 2017, just like thousands of other people around the world. The meditation is brought to society by Shivkrupanand Swamiji, the Indian Guru whose disciple I am.

It is free, accessible to everyone and not bound to any religion. In Germany and all over the world, it is spread by non-profit associations and people working on a voluntary basis. Participation in introductions to the meditation and meditation groups are also free of charge everywhere.

I give people the opportunity to support me and my videos by becoming a member. This might give the impression that this support is related to Samarpan Meditation, but this is not the case: it is always free and completely independent of me.

In Germany, the official contact for Samarpan Meditation is the non-profit association "Samarpan Meditation Deutschland e.V.". I have compiled links to the association's website and their official information on Samarpan Meditation, meditation groups, introductions and online meditations which you can find here.

Reading Recommendations

I find it not only interesting and entertaining, but also very helpful to read a little bit of "Swamiji" every day. Just a few paragraphs are enough and I am engulfed by his energy, which carries me quietly and gently back to my soul. It is truly magical.

I recommend reading Swamiji's autobiography and the Madhuchaitanya magazine from Swamiji about Samarpan Meditation, which is published every two months. Both are available in Hindi and English. The first volume of the autobiography is also available in German, the other volumes are currently being translated into German.

Madhuchaitanya Magazine

The wonderful Madhuchaitanya magazine on Samarpan Meditation is being published every two months in English. It contains a greeting from Swamiji, current discourses by Swamiji and Guruma transcribed and translated, questions and answers on Samarpan Meditation, inspiring stories and a detailed portrait of a saint.

The cost of an annual subscription is currently 15 US$ / € including postage. Issues from previous years can also be reordered.

Subscription contact:

Swamiji's Autobiography

Swamiji's autobiography is a jewel. One reads about the quite amazing spiritual journey of this contemporary saint, described in such a natural, almost childlike way, and at the same time one learns the deepest spiritual truths in a way that anyone can understand.

Swamiji's autobiography consists 6 of volumes, available in Hindi and English. The first volume is also available in German, the other volumes are currently being translated into German.

All 6 volumes are available as English ebooks, vol. 1-2 is available as Hindi ebooks and vol. 1 as German ebook.

The printed versions are mostly sold out at the moment and being reprinted. Currently available are vol. 1-2 in Hindi at Amazon India and at Tattvatrends India, and vol. 1 in English at Tattvatrends India and in German at Amazon Germany.
