My father grew up in Nazi-Germany during the 30s and survived the War. My family still live under the shadow of the war, even it is over long ago. At a very young age I began to question all the negative feelings I harbored and how I lived my life. Later I could find gratitude for the family trauma that became a condition for my early urge to study spiritual methods for inner wellbeing and made me travel around the world to seek the masters.
I met Moriyama Roshi in Japan who accepted me as his deshi, his close disciple, and trained me at his Zen temple Zuigakuin for three years. Later I returned and stayed another five years in Tokyo, studying martial arts and healing arts for various teachers.
For more than 45 years I have practiced and taught meditation. Thru my lectures and workshops, I have introduced more than fifteen thousand people in the corporate world to meditation.
Today I am a blackbelt holder in jodo, judo and iaido and aikido.
Usually I return to Japan twice a year for practice.
I am also a member of the professional group at the Imoto Seitai Traditional Manual Therapy Education and Development Center in Tokyo. For the last thirty years I have been doing treatments and developed my own style of treatment from Swedish massage, shiatsu and seitai techniques. From the information of my hands in contact with the client I read the character of the person and their life-situation, to be able to understand the true cause of stress in their life.
I have a license to work as an assistance nurse in psychiatry.
I received Bodhisattva ordination from Moriyama Roshi and have been a member of Esoteric Shinnyo Buddhism for almost thirty years and have passed thru the four levels of esoteric training. I am ordained to the second level of priesthood in Shinnyo Buddhism.
In Stockholm I have founded a Shinnyo center, being one of the cornerstones. ver menos
