Lama Chimey / Sky Dancer World

Upekha. You will hear me return to this word again and again. It sits quietly at the center of our Triyana practice, and it follows you into your everyday life. Upekha. A steady presence in the middle of movement.

Upekha is often translated as equanimity, yet the word points toward something more alive, more intimate. It is a quality of mind that remains open and balanced, even as experience shifts. Thoughts arise, emotions move, sensations pass through—and still, something in you stays available, uncontracted.

In Buddhism, this openness is inseparable from awareness itself. Clear, knowing, and spacious. A mind that includes rather than narrows. Think of bamboo in the wind. It moves. It adapts. It responds without losing its center. There is strength in that kind of softness.

You don’t need a special setting to encounter Upekha. It meets you in the middle of your day. A conversation takes an unexpected turn. You feel the stirring of reaction. Upekha is the space that allows you to listen a moment longer.

A beautiful moment appears. The wish to hold onto it comes quickly. Upekha brings a gentle ease, letting the moment unfold as it is.

Discomfort arrives. Restlessness follows. Upekha supports your capacity to remain present, to stay with what is here without tightening around it.

This is where practice becomes embodied.

This weekend, I will offer a workshop on emptiness—lifting the veil of illusion through the teachings of Prajna Paramita. A space to look more directly, to experience what words like Upekha are pointing toward.

✨ Sista möjligheten att meditera med mig IRL i Stockholm! ✨

På torsdag möts vi på Yoga Shakti innan vår klass fortsätter online efter påsk.

Oavsett var du bor kan du nu vara en del av Triyana Sangha Online – en gemenskap som mediterar tillsammans varje torsdag kväll och ses på workshops några gånger om året.

Skicka ett DM med texten “Meditation online” för all info om start, tider och Zoom-länk.

Välkommen att hålla praktiken levande tillsammans med oss! 💛

I en tid som känns osäker behöver vi mer än någonsin öva på att hålla hjärtat öppet.
Inte genom att ge efter, bli svaga eller gränslösa, utan genom att odla en inre styrka i kärlek, flexibilitet, medkänsla och närvaro.

Imorgon ses vi på workshopen ”Att hålla hjärtat öppet i en osäker tid – Bodhicitta som livskraft” där vi utforskar hur kärleksfull vänlighet och medkänsla kan bli en levande del av vardagen.

Genom buddhistiska praktiker som kärleksfull vänlighet och tonglen – att ge och ta emot – får du verktyg för att hitta balans, fördjupa relationen till dig själv och möta andra med större öppenhet även när det stormar och skaver.

Det känns också fint att samlas just nu, kring vårdagjämningen – det som på många sätt är det verkliga nyåret. En tid för nystart, klarhet och varsam förvandling.

Själv är jag mitt i storstädning inför flytt, och det påminner mig om hur yttre rensning och inre rensning så ofta hör ihop. Att släppa taget, skapa plats och bjuda in något nytt.

Jag ser mycket fram emot att träffa er imorgon. 💛

Lördag 21 mars kl. 14–17
Kontakta Yogashakti så du får din plats reserverad.

May you be well May you be happy May you be safe. 🙏🏽♥️✨

Yoga and dance — that both have been big parts of my life introduces attention and presence as a relationship. Sensation speaks, breath responds, effort negotiates with ease.

Here, awareness is not abstract. It is lived. This is not preparation for meditation — it can be meditation in itself, expressed through movement, but for focused and a deepening experience — take the step to the cushion!

In my upcoming workshop we will be exploring the transition from yoga to meditation through shinè, laktong, and the Bodhisattva path. It is the first of three workshops that can be attended separately or as a connected series.

You who participate will also have the opportunity to purchase the book The Way of the Bodhisattva in Swedish, by my friend, the buddhist yogi and author Magnus Fridh, at a discounted price — a grounded companion for those who prefer their wisdom lived rather than performed.
