ABOUT MARKUS ATMANANDA

Markus Atmananda has been exploring meditation since 1999. He began his spiritual journey after experiencing depression in the late 90s. His initial encounter was with books by authors such as Osho, Krishnamurti, and Ramana Maharshi. Without knowing any specific meditation techniques, he sat and observed his mind for several hours each day. He quickly glimpsed the freedom and stillness beyond thoughts. He felt a strong inclination towards non-dualistic traditions and has since met several teachers within these traditions, including Mooji, Adyashanti, Swami Shashwat, and Nukunu. From 2016 to 2017, he lived in India with his guru. Markus Atmananda has been teaching since 2009. Read more…
