"Open the petals of your heart

 And let the light and love pour through"

 This animation was inspired by a yearning to open up to life's inner mysteries. The search   within brought me to India for the first time in 2013. From the cityscape to a much more   natural environment for my soul and my mind: the Ashram of my heart, tucked in the     Maharashtrian jungle on the outskirts of Pune, India. In this forest resides an 

 other-worldly man together with his wife, Yogiraj Gurunath Siddhanath also simply called   Nath and Guruma Shivangini/ Aaie, a divine couple like the pure lotus flower: in   this world, but not of this world. The lotus flower sits on the water, but it is not   touched by the water. Nath taught me the meditation technique called "Siddhanath Golden Lotus"

 where we visualize a golden lotus opening and closing in the heart center. This opened my   heart and showed me that in the heart center the limitless ocean can be touched. I have been   on the shore enough and now it was time to take a dip. They encouraged me to share this   technique, and this animation is the fruit of such an endeavour. It was shown while teaching   the "Siddhanath Golden Lotus" in a meditation workshop.
