Dans l'éternel Silence

Djalâl ad-Dîn Rûmî

"Ever since happiness heard your name, it's been running through the streets trying to find you."

Silence Heals

There you are doing nothing, alone or with someone, and all of a sudden there is this intense upsurge of energy… activating all the senses at the same time… it’s like an explosion, ecstasy… it takes over whenever it likes, in front of a flower, an armchair… or nothing. Sometimes it happens several times in a day, or for several days at a time: then nothing for a whole week. The intensity increases, then decreases, you can’t do anything about it. It is truly wonderful.

#SilenceHeals

You are warmly invited to join us for a wonderful event at

Maha Yoga Studio, 13050 San Vincente Blvd, Los Angeles CA 90049

on Friday, March 14^th from 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM

  to sit in Satsang with Yolande Duran-Serrano.

Yolande is visiting from France, where she gives satsangs all over Europe. We are privileged to have her here in Los Angeles, Ojai and Santa Barbara for the first time.

Sitting in Silence with Yolande has a 'tuning fork' effect, redirecting our awareness to the stillness within us that is already present. We are already free; we may just not notice it.

Be forewarned! Sitting with Yolande unravels all our concepts of « who we think » we are.

From the book, Silence Heals, published in 2012 by Non-Duality Press:  On a summer’s day in 2003, Yolande Duran-Serrano was going about her normal daily activities in her apartment in France, thinking the usual mundane thoughts, when suddenly she was struck by a Silence in her mind.  “How is it that I’ve never noticed this before?” she wondered.  In the blink of an eye her thoughts moved to the background of awareness, while an ineffable Silence moved to the foreground.  There, it quickly began to establish itself as the ground of peace that would soon take over her life.

In my end is my beginning: I have come home again.  Without bearings, I move forward, carried by this lightness, guided by this Silence—this Silence that manifests through presence, and through absence.  — Yolande

For the last ten years, Yolande Duran Serrano has been living an unspeakable experience, a sudden shift, eternally repeated, resulting in her whole being now rooted in the depths of Being. This state, this non-state, shows itself by an intense Silence, a void, a fullness simultaneously so simple and so extraordinary that for a long time she had no words to speak about it. Allowing herself to be gradually guided and taught by this Silence, more and more she feels a thirst to share this way of being in a world infused with lightness and simplicity. She testifies here to this spontaneous internal liberation, the shock by Ultimate Reality of oneself and of all that is, which is : “the ultimate healing since it heals the idea of being a person…” To learn more, please visit: www.yolande.info or  https://www.facebook.com/SilenceYolandeDuran or https://twitter.com

Our meeting will be partly in Silence, and also open for questions and answers. Yolande only speaks French, but speaks best in Silence; however, we will have an interpreter.

Donation: $20.
