Living together.
A conscious daily life.
Inner transformation & self-discovery.

This place is truly extraordinary for anyone seeking inner happiness and peace — from the teacher to everyone in the community.

Wonderful energy, down-to-earth people, great art. My first satsang here was wonderful.

Three days at the open day, and I am delighted. A wonderful place with wonderful people.

John David has a big heart and shares a boundless love — deeply intuitive, passionate and profoundly supportive. I was nourished and strengthened so deeply by your devotion to the truth of Being, just as you are. I am beginning to see that this time was healing in a way I could not have imagined. The people in the community around him have uncovered their radiance, and it shines.

Simply thank you to all of you.

A charming place full of good energy.

My dark retreat here was one of the most significant experiences on my path. The house sits right on the Rhine.

Thank you for the warm meetings and the reminder of what is already here.

The special atmosphere and energy of the retreat let me recognise the paradise within myself. I love John David’s ability to meet people where they are and lead them into silence. He is clearly a deeply caring and loving person.

Open Sky House has become my second home. I feel incredibly at ease there.

Vipassana, Transformation Week, tantra — delighted every time. It draws us back here again and again.

A magical place. The energy touched me — here I felt I had truly arrived.

A very special place with very special people.

Being with John David feels like coming home. Through his clear and powerful presence I found a deeper connection with life. The joy and openness of the community helped me to open.

Back at the rhythm workshop — and I enjoyed it very much again.

My words cannot express what I experienced with you. And it goes on.

A week that felt like a month. An incredible amount happened in me.

A truly special place. Hard to describe in words alone.

John David met the structures and obstacles we came upon in a very simple and human way — always fresh, present and remarkably clear. That gave me a deep trust in myself.

People burned out by city life often look for a secluded paradise. Here it is different.

A beautiful atmosphere, beautiful people. I was at the Open Weekend in July.

I have been to Open Sky House several times. A special community in Europe that passes on Advaita.

I have great respect for John David. His presence and energy were a mix of loving humour and approachability, and at other times seriousness. I value his devotion to learning, teaching and sharing.

Very interesting. Illuminating.

I came to know John David in his particular depth, honesty, generosity, seriousness and lightness. Deep gratitude for what is happening in me, and for everything he was able to show me.

It's good that a place like this exists.

My first impression is good. It is good that this community exists.

I loved the retreat. John David is very warm, humorous, wise and committed, challenging in a supportive way. I greatly enjoyed the high level of energy, the inspiring programme, the beautiful place and the interesting, varied people.
