John David is a spiritual teacher, author, filmmaker, and painter. Currently, he is the spiritual leader of the Open Sky House Satsang and Art Community.

Unique dialogues about the teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi
1h 25 min
TRAILER
A wonderful film about the unique energy and expression of 14 European spiritual teachers. Some of them are well-known masters like Rupert Spira and Mooji, while others are hidden gems. They all share their knowledge of traditional Indian teachings – especially those of Bhagwan Sri Ramana Maharshi – and connect them with insights from Western psychology. This creates a unique film, perfect for the modern Western spiritual seeker. The teachings are complemented by sensitively selected film material and moving mantra music by Deva Premal and Miten. In the film: Mooji, Deva Premal & Miten, John David, Rupert Spira, Karl Renz, Francis Lucille, Michael Barnett, Om C. Parkin, Padma & Torsten, Dolano, Tony Parsons, Christopher Titmuss.

#JohnDavid #SpiritualTeacher
TRAILER
Sixteen Indian spiritual masters, many of them well-known such as Ramesh Balsekar and Swami Dayananda, answer questions based on the teachings of Indian saint Sri Ramana Maharshi. The teachers discuss important topics that we encounter on our spiritual journey, such as enlightenment, self-exploration, the nature of the mind, guru, and devotion. The range of masters is very broad and their contributions are enriching, revealing great spiritual clarity in simple words and inviting us to experience satsang with them. The interviewer John David, himself a realized teacher, is deeply familiar with the subject of awakening. For many years, he has been accompanying seekers on their spiritual path.
Sri Ramana Maharshi’s Life and Teachings
1h 12 min
“Your own self-realization is the greatest service you can give to the world.” – Sri Ramana Maharshi
TRAILER
Arunachala Shiva paints a very personal picture of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, one of India’s most famous sages of the 20th century. The film showcases the key aspects of Sri Ramana’s life and teachings, in which he declares self-inquiry (“Who am I?”) as the most direct path to self-realization. Fascinating original footage of Ramana and the holy mountain Arunachala, as well as stories about his life, take us behind the scenes to moments with his closest disciples. Modern and inspiring commentary from three experts, David Godman, James Swartz, and John David, provide new and unexpected insights into his teachings and challenge established ideas. This is a beautiful and profound tribute to the spiritual greatness of Sri Ramana.
