Visit to the Emma Kunz Grotto and Museum

Monday, October 20th, 2025

We were a little group of 7 members from Austria, South Germany and Switzerland who met at the ancient Roman Quarries of Würenlos in northern Switzerland on 12 October 25. It is the place of a huge limestone grotto where Emma Kunz (1893-1962) had discovered the healing qualities of the rock. It is available in Switzerland under the name of AION A (read more about it). Emma Kunz was a clairvoyant Swiss healer, researcher and artist. Since 1986, there exists the Emma Kunz Centre with a museum near the cave to preserve the collection of her artwork and the results of her research for posterity.

We first walked to a grill cabin in the nearby forest for our Sunday healing meditation. Afterwards, we visited the cave, for which we had a 30 minutes time-slot (you have to book in advance, see the regulations to keep the purity of the cave and allow experiencing the energy of the place).

For many years, the work of Emma Kunz was not recognized by the contemporaries. She did not intend for her works to be seen in a fine arts context, instead she recorded the medical meanings of her works in books. She stated that her work will be more understood in the 21st century. In the last decades, there were great international expositions showcasing her work.

In summer 2024, my friend Joan from Barcelona, from the Anima Channel, visited the Emma Kunz grotto and did a video presenting Emma Kunz, in English.

Scorpio – The Inverted Cone

Friday, October 17th, 2025

Scorpio represents the descent of spirit into matter. It is compared to the form of an inverted cone or a spiral path where the windings become smaller and smaller. Matter signifies the relative absence of spirit-consciousness. It is described as the spiritual death or a bottomless pit in which we can fall when we are disconnected with the thread of Light. For the soul, it is a situation of spiritual ignorance and the related suffering.

When we reverse our direction and consciously re-link to the thread of Light, the cone becomes wider and the path becomes white and radiant. The soul experiences liberation from the bondage of matter and joy. There are guides who are firmly linked to the Light helping us on the way up. And at a later stage, we will become such helpers ourselves assisting others on their way.

The inverted cone in the upper centre of the image is constructed with photos of two snail shells. The rim of the upper end of the cone is designed with elements of a transformed ring galaxy photo of Nasa indicating the macrocosmic and microcosmic dimensions of descent and ascent. In its centre there is a column of light leading at the bottom to a star, symbol of the soul falling into matter.

The multi-layered construction in the background is designed with a picture of a Saligrama (fossilized ammonite symbolising Vishnu, the Lord of Pervasion). Its fiery colours indicate the states of ignorance and suffering of the souls lost in matter.

A person in dark clothes is walking towards the abyss, unaware of the star-like lights on the path. A person clad in white is standing on the right side in the direction of ascent, ready to help. The figure, designed with a photo of Master Kumar, is in a column of Light. The column is directed from the heart via head towards the stars of the Great Bear, symbol of the cosmic White Brotherhood, and further beyond.

16 Libra Paintings

Saturday, September 20th, 2025

Libra is the third cardinal and second air sign of the zodiac. In the physical body, Libra is related to the navel – the quiescent centre around which the wheel of activity revolves. The symbol of the sign ♎︎ represents the scales of justice, the crisis of choice and the axis of the equinoxes of Aries and Libra.

The symbol of Libra alludes to a bird with wings spread wide, hovering above the horizontal plane of the earth, in a state of perfect balance. This represents the prana state of Samana Vayu, the balance point between inhalation and exhalation. Through this point, we can enter and ascend into the inner pillar of consciousness.

Libra – The Set of the Sails

Thursday, September 18th, 2025

I was pondering on the next image of Libra and reading in the book “Spiritual Personality Development” by Master EK. I came across a quote from the poem “The Winds of Fate” by the American poetess Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850 – 1919) written at the age of 15. It says,

“One ship sails East, And another West, By the self-same winds that blow, ‘Tis the set of the sails And not the gales, That tells the way we go.” It further goes on, “‘Tis the set of the soul that decides its goal And not the calm or the strife.”

Master EK explains that the angle of the sail we set is called reasoning (thinking logically and not as an emotional reaction). And as wind is more universal than our ship, the direction of creation and the planetary evolution are greater and more universal than our likes and dislikes. Once we align ourselves with the purpose of evolution, our likes and dislikes come into harmony with the universal direction of our nature.

Libra guides the path of choices. Right choices and right adjustments are to be made with responsibility, aligning ourselves with the greater purpose. It is the set of the sails.

I designed the image with photos of an Indian boat, a coastline in Scotland and sunrays shining through clouds in South Germany. The rays are like signs for elevating ourselves and the rocks indicate possible obstacles on the way. We steer our boat and set the sails as per the purpose we pursue.

Preparing a Gift – a Group Work

Monday, September 15th, 2025

At the moment, there is a tour of Guru Prasad, the President of WTT-Global, to several groups of the WTT in Argentina (I posted a news on Telegram with a link to a YouTube streaming of his talk given at the University of Posadas in the north of Argentina.) I had been in touch with the organisation and followed the tour via a WhatsApp chat with many photos and clips.

Yesterday ended the 4-days group living at Iguazu near the famous waterfalls. For me, it was like being again at the places which we had visited on a tour through Argentina with Master KPK and his wife Krishna Kumari in 2015. We also had been at the same hotel near the waterfalls.

This morning, Adriana, a member of the organisation team, contacted me. The Posadas group had created a little gift for the participants of the group life and had done a beautiful video about this teamwork.

The symbol of the circle with a triangle and a central point – a symbol of Ganesha/Jupiter

Adriana asked me to share the video with Guru Prasad – which I did. And I would also like to share the video with you. It’s very well done. Enjoy.

Wisdom is the Skill of Relating

Monday, September 1st, 2025

Yesterday, Sunday 31 August 2025, we celebrated the anniversary “42 Years of The World Teacher Trust-Global”, with the motto “Wisdom is the skill of relating” – a statement of Master KPK. The last months, I was much involved with planning and organising this global event transmitted via Zoom, with physical and virtual meetings.

There were three presentations of inspiring projects and initiatives from different parts of the globe. First, about “Mithila Vidyalayam” – setting up schools and providing value based education to children in slum/rural areas, incl. a video presentation by B.R.K. Raju (Navaneetham), the secretary of WTT-India and the Circle of Goodwill, India.

Then there was a presentation y Gabi Pares, Spain of “Buena Voluntad en Acción“, or in Catalan, “Bona Voluntad en acció” (Good Will in Action) – a volunteer-based association in Barcelona, Spain, which promotes the inclusion of socially excluded people.

And finally of “ANIMA” – a supranational group and an open channel for sharing wisdom teachings via student-to-student videos, in Spanish and English. The presentation was done by Maxim Verbist, Montreal, and, in the background, by Joan de Bes form Barcelona – the video about Anima was done by Sandra Mabel from Olavarría, Southern Argentina. A very nice and inspired team.

Guru Prasad Kambhampati, the President of WTT-Global, from Visakhapatnam, India, gave an introduction and a closing talk. Frank Berger, a guitarist from Berlin, contributed the musical framework with little “Musical Precipitation of Master Messages”. And I spoke about “Developing the skill of relating”, presented the contributions and guided through the program. There were about 100 people participating from various parts of the globe.

You find the recording in the YouTube channel of the World Teacher Trust or below. If you are interested, you can also subscribe to the Telegram channel of WTT-Global to stay informed.

16 Virgo Paintings

Wednesday, August 27th, 2025

Virgo is an earth sign and is related to matter. In its subtle state, matter is pure, but in its dense or gross state, it loses its purity and virginity and becomes worldly. The first half of the sign of Virgo is filled with subtle, pure nature, while the second half belongs to gross nature.
In Eastern tradition, Ganesha is worshipped as the son of the World Mother, and his birthday is celebrated in the fourth waxing moon phase of Virgo. Ganesha, the cosmic Jupiter principle, symbolises wisdom or the subtle nature that can reflect God’s light, love and power. May the cosmic Jupiter principle help us to experience the golden light of the World Mother.

The Images of Synthesis for the month of Virgo illustrate the related symbolism. You find there all previous Virgo paintings with detailed explanations in four languages (en/de/es/fr). You can also download print-versions for free. Find here the Images of Synthesis with short extracts from the wisdom teachings.

Virgo – The Dark Mother and the Dark Son

Wednesday, August 20th, 2025

The World Mother is described as the Mother of Light and the Mother of Night. She presides over the interplay of spirit and matter and engages in the activity of creation. The Father stands as her background and provides support in her activities. Experiencing the Father is beyond consciousness.

The Veda says that the Father is reborn as Son through the Mother. The birth can happen in two ways: The descent of the Divine into a human form is called the principle of the avatar. A human being, a “son of man”, can also become a “Son of God” or a “Son of the Virgin” by purifying and transforming themselves through service and sacrifice to an extent that the Divine can express itself through them. This is the path of the initiates and Masters of Wisdom.

Virgo is symbolic of such a transformation of awakening to the subjective world happening in silence and darkness. Disciples enter into the inner cave of the heart to connect to the Divine in themselves. The Divine might descend into them by the grace of the Mother.

The divine Light has its shine; many images and idols of God are therefore made in white or in gold. The Dark of the Divine also has its shine; the shine of the black is profound. Krishna as an avatar is described as dark, meaning he is so imperceptible and deep that we can merge into him and enter into Samadhi. Black Madonnas have the same shine of the Dark.

For designing the painting, I used the photo of a black Madonna with a black child from a basilica in Girona, Spain, adding shining eyes. In the background you see schemes of a painting of Gayatri indicating the various shades of divine Light. They are surrounded by a rainbow circle symbolising the seven colours and planes of creation. They are further surrounded by elements of a dark flower and of stars hinting at the work of time in space.

16 Leo Paintings

Sunday, July 27th, 2025

The fire sign Leo represents the proud, self-confident person who wants to lead and protect others and seeks to be admired by them. This is the first level of Leo, the personality level. The personality has to offer all of itself to the Soul. And this then becomes the hero’s battle with the lion in a cave. It is in the cave of the heart where the personality and the soul can meet. A true hero is someone who defeats the lion of their own pride, i.e. transforms it so that the light of the soul can shine through. We can visualise the golden light of the lion in our hearts. This lion energy helps us to bring the heart lotus to bloom.

The Images of Synthesis for the month of Leo illustrate the related symbolism. You find there all previous Leo paintings with detailed explanations in four languages (en/de/es/fr). You can also download print-versions for free. Find here the Images of Synthesis with short extracts from the wisdom teachings.
