Death- the greatest fiction Dissolution of the elements in the dying process
BARDO- Awakening from the Dream The tibetan Book of the Dead A contemporary edition of the ancient tibetan meditation about the transition called death: the dissolution of body-mind, and egopersonality, and the possible conscious choice of a new rebirth following a conscious death. A conscious death, and a conscious birth, hold the highest potential for an authentic spiritual awakening. The BARDO meditation "AWAKENING FROM THE DREAM" is designed to incorporate a lifetime of spiritual practise into the moments of transition we call death. It helps us to chart a path through the states of consciousness as they are experienced after death. Our intention in creating this meditation is to evoke courage, resolution, understanding of our transition in dying, and in this way a conscious , graceful death. BARDO is a process of soft hypnosis, guiding the listener into an altered state of consciousness, and onward through the transitional stages of BARDO. 4 CDs Audiobook Nr. 1000 180 min

A guided meditation about witnessing the death process and the dissolution of body/ mind from the inner center of consciousness. As long as we know death and dying only from the outside, we live in fear of all experiences of expansion and letting go of our boundaries, which limits our courage and unique expression of our true nature. This process challenges and dissolves the belief of death as the end of our existence. When the fear of death dissolves through deep understanding of our essential nature, we are free to live authentically and in fearless courage. Nr. 1006 a 70 min CD 19.- € mp3 13.- €
Your whole life you are afraid of death. You keep yourself occupied,
you don´t want to look at the fact that death follows like a shadow, and nobody knows what will happen the next moment. People live in the world as if they are here for ever, knowing clearly that nobody is here forever.
Spiritual Dimensions of Living and Dying
Conscious Living and Dying
Transformation and compassion Transforming your pain, suffering and unconsciousness Atisha´s heart meditation (Tonglen) about transforming pain, fear and suffering into joy, light and compassion.
3
There is a world of experience that most of us know, the world of the ordinary self, the “I”, the person that we are, with our thoughts, feelings, dreams, fears and hopes.
The natural quality of the spiritual heart center is compassion. It can transform suffering and inner darkness into light and healing when used in a conscious way, by riding on the breath. And the method is, when you breathe in - listen carefully, it is one of the greatest methods - when you breathe in, think that you are breathing in all the miseries of all the people in the world. All the darkness, all the negativity, all the hell that exists anywhere, you are breathing it in... And let it be absorbed into your heart. When you breathe in, breathe in all the misery and suffering of all the beings of the world - past, present and future. And when you breathe out, breathe out all the joy you have, all the blissfulness that you have, all the benediction that you have. Breathe out, pour yourself into existence. This is the method of compassion: drink in all the suffering and pour out all the blessings. Nr. 1001 60 min CD 19.- € mp3 13.- €
The nature of desires
From Death to deathlessness
Desire,it´s nature and function is a mysterious and sometimes painful aspect of human life and death. This is a guided meditation about witnessing the nature of desires and attachments, the conscious disidentifikation, and the ultimate understanding that desire can lead us to our deepest heart´s nature, our true nature
Deep physical relaxation, suggestions for witnessing the body dying, and for the realization of our deathlessness as pure eternal consciousness. Veetman guides the listener into a deep extended physical relaxation, then giving suggestions for witnessing the body dying, with metaphors and respectful suggestions for the realization of our deathlessness as pure eternal consciousness, the unborn / undying consciousness. This relaxation will cause the listener to re-examine and challenge conditioned beliefs about his/ her assumed identification with body and mind. "Death brings a very intense possibility to understand... In a single moment it shakes you. If you are not alert you will miss that moment, the moment is very tiny. If you are alert, then that very moment becomes a door into the divine". Nr. 1002 a 60 min CD 19.- € mp3 13.- €
There is also another world, which many of us have experienced from time to time. This is the world of grace. In this grace something happens, that is more vast and real than the “I”, which we experience ordinarily. I call this vaster something our Being, our True Nature
Liberation and Disidentification Quiet sitting meditation
Desires often destroy beautiful moments and remain a source of frustration, if we don´t understand their nature and how the mechanism of the mind to grasp creates suffering. Veetman guides the listener towards understanding the essentials of meditation and a clear awareness of the nature of desires. The "knack" of meditation; stillness, acceptance, non-judgemental awareness, disidentification from the restless stream of thoughts. This meditation is also about the fact of impermanence, and fosters an understanding how identification with desires is a main cause for misery and restlessness, and how we can get the "knack" of disidentification. The ability to watch desires is a door to freedom and to resting joyfully in the present moment. Nr. 1002 b 60 min CD 19.- € mp3 13.- €

The Great Death From Ego to Essence 2 guided meditations about going into the unknown beyond the conditioned ego- personality, towards inner emptiness and the essential enquiry of who or what we really are. In Zen it is called "the great death" 1 | The Great Death In this guided meditation the meditator is encouraged to consciously cut off from all relationships that support our selfimage, our identification with the body and false personality, that which is born and which also dies. In this way only the question: Who am I ? remains, which triggers the quest for that which is real, for that which always remains, without any doubt. 2 | Hall of Mirrors Hypnosis on dissolving the unconscious identification with the false self-images to create space for the real being, your Essence.

To sit with the dying is such a privilege.
In the absence of a “tomorrow”, in the face of complete uncertainty, total intimacy is all that remains, total presence, deeply being Here Now. Each moment is experienced as absolutely sacred, just as it has actually always been. Each breath is precious, each word is there to be heard and experienced deeply, each touch vibrates through the cells, each look, each moment, everything which is said, and what remains unsaid; all that which one remembers, and all that is lost in time, everything is held in the vast embrace of Now, the only place where we ever really met.

"I held you in my arms as you passed from this world, but you never passed, and you were never of this world. I never felt for one moment the disappearance of your presence, dear friend, for I never felt the loss of my own, and I know we are One and the same, beyond time and space."

Grief appears to remind us That we are still here
Shattered yet alive Our palms contacting the sacred ground Upon which the beloved walked Their presence, still palpable Our own presence, unchanging Each breath a portal We cannot 'connect' if we were never divided We were always here. This love cannot break.
A guided meditation process on conscious authentic forgiveness, allowing us to release past wounds and hurts and see reality as it is now.
An experience in relaxation about presence and totality in living and dying. In a deeply relaxed state you confront yourself with the fact of your physical mortality and the insight that you have only one moment and one day at a time to make your life complete and to live beautifully,so that in your death you can let go with gratitude and dignity that arises from having lived your life as fully and consciously as possible. After this meditation, take some time to live what the meditation suggests. Knowing that you have not fully lived your uniqueness creates fear of death. 60 min

Authentic Forgiveness is a quality of the heart center, it arises when we understand that the ego cannot exist in the present moment , it cannot forgive because it clings to misery and separation.

Authentic Forgiveness holds the potential for profound healing on physical and psychological levels. Nr. 1007 a

Meditation, Presence, Silence
Consciously entering into death
A profound meditation on witnessing the body burning, on impermanence and disidentification. With preliminary explanation and natural fire sounds as a background for the guided meditation Everything is uncertain; only death is a certainty. All else is accidental it can happen, it may not happen - only death is not accidental. We always talk about death as if it is an accident. Whenever someone dies we say his death was untimely. Whenever someone dies we start talking as if it has been an accident. Only death is not an accident - only death. Everything else is accidental. Death is absolutely certain. You have to die. And when I say you have to die, it seems in the future, very far away. It is not so - you have already died. The moment you were born, you died. With birth, death has become a fixed phenomenon. One part of it has already happened - the birth; now only the second, later part has to happen. So you are already dead, half-dead, because once one is born, one has come into the realm of death, entered into it. Now nothing can change it, now there is no way to change it. You have entered into it. You are half-dead with birth. Secondly: death is not going to happen in the end; it is already happening. It is a process. We create the dualism - but life and death are both one process. You are dying every moment. Let me put it this way: whenever you inhale, it is life, and whenever you exhale, it is death.

Silence is the answer Silence is your inner being This CD supports the meditator with beautiful gong sound very 10 minutes, which deepens the inner silence. This helps to stay alert and awake in silent meditation, reminding us to stay AWAKE in the reality of the present moment.

If there is at all a spiritual practice, it is this:
Resting in stillness, in an awake consciousness. To abide in stillness means to simply listen to the silence, to bring consciousness into the silence How liberating it is when we realize that silence is always available, present.
Osho Nadabrahma Meditation Tibetan humming meditation
Nadabrahma meditation lasts for one hour and has three stages. It is a sitting method, in which humming and hand movements create an inner balance, a harmony between mind and body. Suitable for any time of the day, have an empty stomach and remain inactive for at least fifteen minutes afterwards. Nadabrahma Meditation has ancient roots in the Tibetan Buddhist technique of Humming, which creates a healing vibration throughout the body and brings harmony to your being letting you open to trust. Sitting, beginning with the method of Humming for 30 minutes, followed by flowing, circular hand movements which center your energies at the navel; the last stage is stillness and witnessing. Soft Tibetan Bells and a beautiful soft music support the different phases of this process.
"Silence is your inner being. What is silence? Silence is the inner space or the awareness in which, for example, these words are received and become thoughts. Without this awareness no perception, no thoughts, no world, would exist. You are this awareness in the disguise of a person".
The music by Deuter supports each stage of the meditation. The meditation ends with 15 min silence, which is concluded with a bell.

Partnership in Meditation
All healing involves trauma, the re-opening of old wounds. Healing does not always look or feel good, pretty or kind. One of the most dangerous myths we have inherited is that healing is supposed to 'feel good'. No. Sometimes our pain actually increases as the darkness emerges into the light. But the pain actually indicates that the healing process is intensifying, not stalling. There is such a tendency in our culture to avoid suffering, distract ourselves from it, label it as 'wrong' or 'negative', meditate or medicate it away, prevent the experience of it (and there is great intelligence in this too!). But sometimes we no longer have any interest in 'returning to normal'! The 'normal' was the problem, not the solution! The status quo needed to shift. It was unstable and false. Sometimes our fragile 'normality' needs to break open into chaos, the pain needs to be felt more fully, the heart needs to break open more intensely. This is not to destroy us, but to destroy inauthentic modes of being.
" Love requires a fierce embrace of life and our existence, because the true expression of our nature is love. and love is not what we think about it. Love is synonymous with this fierce full embrace of life. Love is to see yourself as all and everyone, and this seeing is not in your thoughts. It is not meant for the ego. With your ego you can never recognize everything as one. You can only realize it from your essence.�
Suffering is not a punishment from a judgemental god, nor a mistake in a broken universe, nor evidence of our failure and unenlightened ignorance, but a profoundly alive spiritual teaching. Consider the possibility that within your suffering you are being invited to let go, to 'put away childish things', to wake up from the dream of normality and embrace life in all its brokenness and wonder. To fall in love with where you are. To be here, now
