I enjoyed every moment of my visit
to Samadhi. I specially loved the walking meditations.
I
feel uplifted and I know I had a spiritual awakening. I
have a lot of gratitude for my life and
everything in it.

I know it is all have been said before.
But, I just want to thank you again for what was one
of the most wonderful (and fun) weeks I have ever had
in my life. It truly was a very special
week. Looking forward to returning to Samadhi.

The Samadhi Meditation
Center grounds are truly beautiful. Our early morning walks,
single file, along a narrow path in the woods, with steps
hewn in rocks and all of us in white, were an amazing sight.
Everyone has miracles, or momentous things, to report from
our retreat with Bhante. Accommodations were great; food
was wonderful; chanting, meditations and prayerful silent
times together were profound. We are forever changed,

I am just now beginning to feel in sync with the time change.
The peace I experienced at Samadhi is very present in my
life. I have played Bhante's meditation CD's every day since
I've been home and hearing his voice brings a smile to my
face. What an awesome joy to have spent this special time
in his presence. He truly lives love and peace and it just
radiates from his very essence. I feel so blessed to have
had this experience. I think of each Czech traveler in our
group and carry love for each in my heart.

What a wonderfully supportive, unconditionally loving group!
I feel that we shared an experience so intimate that when
people in my everyday life ask me about my trip, I can't
begin to describe how awesome it was because our group experience
transformed it to such a spiritual level. Everyday I recognize
another change in myself and in how I see my life, other
people, and my life's purpose. I feel so blessed to have
had the experience.

I know I will never be the same again. We are all so blessed
to have spent this time in life's journey together. I walk
slower and more mindfully now and I will never look at the
clouds the same way again.

I have been forever changed,
but I don't exactly understand what that means or how this
change will manifest in my life. If I need to guess, I think
I will end up more peaceful, loving, respectful and patient.
I felt that I was those attributes during the Samadhi experience
and back home I am coming out of a cocoon of past habit
and fear. This change will result in my entering into the
universal flow of love (self and others), abundance, peace
and increased creativity.
Much love and gratitude,

Dear Venarable Bhante Wimala,
On behalf of our group
of Malaysian pilgrims who traveled together to the Samadhi
Buddhist Center, I wish to thank you for your generous hospitality
during our visit. We must have had good karma to have been
able to stay at the Samadhi temple in Prague during our
visit to the Czech Republic. I do believe that one day your
Meditation Center in the Czech Republic will be one of the
best and internationally well-known, with the castles tower
as a landmark. With your good karma and your positive qualities
and determination, you will achieve it all in record time.
It is just wonderful. I really know how happy you feel by
the happiness I felt when I stepped into the Samadhi temple.
Three really big SADHUS to
you, Bhante Wimala.
Sister Doris Ngun, on behalf
of Malaysian pilgrims to Samadhi Mediation Center.

When we cultivate and practice
peace in our own lives, we help to effect peace throughout
the world. This is a lesson of love that Bhante Wimala shares
generously with his students everywhere. I believe in Bhante's
message and in his mission of helping people to help themselves.
I knew that the Samadhi Meditation Center in the Czech Republic
that Bhante shaped with his joy, created with his kindness,
and grounded with the peaceful collaboration of all of his
friends would offer immense opportunities to all of the
pilgrims called to visit it and it does. I am so thankful
to have journeyed to the Samadhi Meditation Center this
past June. The grounds of the Center are so gorgeous and
peaceful! The energy is amazing. The heavens smile on the
vast forest there and the healing power of the earth pulsates
beneath the historic castle and the comfortable sleeping
quarters. The staff is a team of wonderful people who love
to help others, as demonstrated via the healthy landscaping,
the incredibly delicious food, and the lovely excursions
to Prague and the
Bohemian Forest. I am more peaceful for having traveled
to Samadhi and I share this peace.

The Samadhi Meditation
Center is a peaceful sanctuary a spiritual retreat where
one can share the truth of spirit with other like minded
spiritual seekers. The tranquil settings of Samadhi nourish
the soul and allow one to be in touch with nature and truly
appreciate the Universe's splendor. When I returned home
I felt a deeper appreciation for all of life, refreshed,
renewed and forever changed by this wonderful experience.
My Deepest gratitude to Bhante, a teacher of teachers in
Mindfulness and Cultivating the soul with simple meditations
and sharing of Buddhist teachings allowed for a
true expansion of one's spiritual development.
Blessings, Felicia Karstens
