It describes the path we take when we choose spiritual life. It grows out of the mud and opens to a wonderful, divine blossom. The lotus flower symbolizes the way out of the darkness into the light; the path from ignorance to enlightenment. I am a sadhaka whose everyday life is shaped by spirituality, through using of sadhana (spiritual tools). It started at my teenage age. I was searching. I was
looking for religiosity in Christianity and later in Hinduism. Certainly I found religiosity every day in nature, which has held me in it hands since childhood. I studied the cultures of Asia, Hinduism, Agama Hindu Bali and of course Buddhism too. On Bali, the hOMe of my soul, I met the lotus flower for the first time. There, this beautiful flower is not only growing out of the mud towards the light, but I saw it everywhere. The Balinese live in a lotus world and I started to live in theirs. Many years ago I met my Guruji Osho and I became a sannyasin. Since then I not only live in the Lotus World, I feel it deep inside of me, I discover it every day in a new way. During the Covid pandemic, I felt drawn back to my roots. I felt deeply reconnected with the gods of Hinuism, with Ganesha, with Shiva... Every day I feel like I'm becoming more and more one with these aspects of the Divine. And with all my heart I would like to share it with you! Satyam, Shivam, Sundaram! With love and gratitude,

My workplace has been the Bali Beach Museum Shop for 32 years. Altars with Buddhas of Myanmar, Thailand, the Himalayan region and Indonesia - decorated with fresh flowers in the morning. Altars with the Hindu deities Ganesha, Shiva, Sarasvati, Lakshmi and Krishna. Everywhere are small bowls of flowers, also on the ground for the underworld forces. Bali Beach Museum Shop is not an ordinary Asian art shop. For me it is a gift that I receive with gratitude every day. Who is allowed to work in such a beautiful place? It is not really a job, but a vocation! I respect the Buddhist and Hindu culture. I also have the utmost respect for all the artists and craftsmen who created our artworks and religious statues. You will also immediately see how I have issued and treat the goods. My own passion is also to live this culture. Thus, you enter a temple in the middle of a shopping center! Here you will find everything you need to set up your own little temple or just a sacred niche in your home. The shop has also always supplied yoga and meditation centers and even various museums in Europe. Bali Beach has been around for over 50 years. Competent knowledge about the Hindu, Buddhist and Balinese culture, New Guinea and Africa - backed up by the many expedition photos of my husband Hubert, the great adventurer, have always contributed to make Bali Beach unique! Visitors and customers are always fascinated by the diversity. On the one hand the lovely statues of Buddha and deities, on the other grotesque-looking masks and statues with big, scary eyes and fangs. Golden temple reliefs and royal furniture stand next to archaic-looking benches of roots. Traditional paintings from Bali and Tibetan Tangkhas, but also abstract ZEN pictures. Bali Beach also sell jewelry from Asia and America. And many works of art that have nothing to do with religion at all. Horses, lions, dogs, vases, etc. The Bali Beach has something for everyone, really for everyone in all price ranges. Originally the museum shop housed one of the largest New Guinea and Bali collections in the world. These can now be admired in the Museum of the World Ocean in Kaliningrad (Russia). It is the life work of my husband and he feels great joy that he is allowed to experience it now during his lifetime. Wow, a huge museum building in his name! Thirty years ago, I entered the store for the first time. I was still a schoolgirl, but absolutely fascinated by Asian culture. At that time the shop was still in Frankfurt am Main (Germany). It was a different world. A little paradise in the middle of a city. And I am eternally grateful that shortly afterwards I was allowed to become part of this paradise. And I would like to share all this with you on this page!
