TESTIMONIALS OF PARTICIPANTS OF MEDITATION COURSES WITH CONNY LARSSON HELD FROM 26 MARCH TO 2 APRIL 2007 IN POLAND

- I have never experienced anything like that. Very nice and friendly atmosphere. I felt as if I had stayed for two days on a different planet.
Monika

- Very positive impressions from the course. I'm impressed by Conny's extraordinary knowledge, ease with which he establishes contacts with people, openness and optimism. I'm positively surprised that meditation can be so easy and simple.
Magda

- It's great that there is a path that leads towards light, purity and truth. In today's world, full of confusion, cheating, conspiracy and secrets, it is possible to find the meaning so close, i.e. within oneself.
Magdalena

- It is difficult to comprehend it all at present but I feel like a sportsman who has practiced for a long time to achieve the first prize. Right now the prize for me is the fourth technique. In addition, I have a feeling that something changed inside me during this course. Time will tell what kind of change it is.
Marcin

- Meeting Conny was an exceptional experience. I felt inner peace. I'm happy I came here.
Magda

- I don't regret coming here. I'm delighted to see the peace of the people running the course and all participants.
Piotr

- Very positive impressions from the course. Atmosphere conducive to self-contemplation and contemplation of the place where I am now. Conny is an incredibly friendly guy. Being in his presence gives energy to act. His serenity and joy of living is passed onto participants.
Klaudia

- I'm taking part in such a course for the first time in my life. I like it a lot. Conny is a wonderful and friendly person. I think that he's doing in his life exactly what he should be doing. On the one hand, I feel very imperfect in his company but on the other, I feel motivated to work on myself.
Urszula

In my meditation I never have any pictures, colours as other people describe.
But what I sincerely could state is that I'm always coming in to a profound feeling of bliss and peace.
Since I started with meditation 7 years ago, I have now gone through all the 7 steps taught in the Vedic Mantra school. For me it was a joy all the way.
I'm now 82 years old and satisfied with my life even though I had to experience imprisonment after the worldwar 2 in Sibiria-Russia.
I'm greatful that I finally found my way home by Vedic mantra meditation.

This is my experieces of being in North Cyprus in april 2005.
I'm a Polish lady in the middleage.
I came to Cyprus on my first visit and I started to meditate by my teacher Conny Larsson. The meditation was simple and he was a joyfull teacher to learn from. No difficulties at all.
We where about 30 people and became soon a big family we went on to guided tours arranged by the hotel around the Northen of Cyprus. I found the island to be a very pleasent place to have a holiday in combination with learning meditation on. I also learnt to do the yoga for the first time and that was really my cup of tea.
Going up early in the morning, doing yoga at 7.00 then meditate half an hour followed by lecture of Conny. Then having the day off for going on shopping in Kyrenia town or just sunbathing by the pool! Falling a sleep in the night after another day full of experiences with the sound of the waves of the sea. What more could I ask for. The Top Set Hotel was just so pleasent I wished it to be and the staff was extremly friendly.
The food was excellent. I really recomend others to go there of and I will of course be back as soon as possible to learn more and to enjoy this wonderfull form of holiday.
Best wishes to others

For me coming to Cyprus I really would say was the turning point of my life.
I have worked as a manager for a big company in Sweden and was absolutedly burned out.
That was of course something I couldnt agree on before coming to Cyprus, I denied my condition all the time.
By taking time for myself I just realized how my life had been in danger for the the last years by overload of work. I had not been listening to the signals of my body. I totally collapsed after a few days.
My teacher Conny Larsson told me to take it easy even with the meditation and let the organism or my body find it's way in this new form of deep rest that meditation gaved me.
And how right he was! After just a week of meditation I was completly back in my good old condition again. From coming to Cyprus depressed and almost lifeless, I soon found myself happy and full of vigour again. I have now found a way to handle my daily situation and I always give myself time to meditate everyday. I also learnt Hatha yoga by a Polish lady, her name was Ania but Conny always called her Joginka. She was drilling us every morning wich made us wake up to the reality of our bodily functions. Today I do yoga 4 times a week and it suits me very fine.
I also participated in the Q-gong lessons and found it very interesting especially the medical part of the Q-gong since I had a severe kneeoperation that I thought was no good at all, the pain was always there.
After having done Q-gong and all the other programs that was given the pain went and has not come back so far. For me this was a miracle after years of pain.
I really recomend this form of holiday. For me it became a turning point in life.
What I also found was that my potency increased, and being over the 50'ties I just congratulate myself to have started to meditate and do yoga.
On Top Set Hotel everything was to my pleasure.

Best wishes

I have been following many years the Vedic Mantra School programs and I would really recommend it to all whom is looking for a way of life free from fanatism or dogmas. Here you can be yourself whoever you are. Build up your individual program with your teacher. They also provide a continuation program that runs for many years if you are out for that.
The stability of the Vedic mantra meditationteacher is easy to see. Friendly, peacefully and full of confidence. They teach easily and are always carefully listening to the pupils. There has never as far as I have experienced being any forcement in any of the 7 steps they teach in. The best thing I found out was that there was never any hook that I was suspisouss of from the beginning. They never charge anything fore their private teaching and that went all the way to the 7 step with me.
I also was extremely satiesfied with having teachers all the way on the journey. I have now 2004 concluded my teachertraining course and will be teaching meditation and yoga in my own country that is Sweden. I,m also a professional wrestler and a teacher in this and meditation have given me a new point of view in teaching wrestling. I love my life and wish others to feel the same.

Hallo!
I thought that I never could sing before I came to Cyprus. I had C in singing in my final schoolrecords. But what a change! Every evening we came together for lecture and singing.
The first evenings I kept silent but I couldnt resist when other so happily was singing out their joy. Suddenly I heard myself singing out loud and I was overthrilled with joy. Every evening my singing voice became stronger and stronger and finally I was the one that was heard most of everyone. I never missed one evening.
Exept for the meditation and yoga there was a friendly feeling in the group I was in. We where about 50 people from all over the world and everyone found his or her way under the lovely guidance of all the teacher that had come to Cyprus to teach us for free.
This was something I couldnt understand! How did they support themselfs? "We all have other occupations in our countrys. We come here for we think this is holiday for us", they said.
The feeling of gentleness and the way the teachers listened all through the holiday was the best way of showing who they really where.
Now having been to Cyprus for the fifth time, I also have learnt to appreciate the turkcypriots and the turks as lovely and friendly people. And what more I have been asked to come and work at Top Set Hotel to take care of other tourist now when they are getting more and more tourist from abroad. I havent decided yet but I'm thinking on it.
Also a great experince for me was to visit Conny,s home Villa Pace, and see what he had made out of that land that was bought years ago. Now there is a beautiful villa in a big garden of 6000 m2. The almost dead garden of lemontrees he now have transformed to a fruit and rosengarden. He have also built a small amfitheater in sandstones in the middle of the flowergarden. There we meditated with the group of visitors once. For me that was the deepest meditation I ever have had surrounded by all the flower and fragrance.
I think Conny have made a marvellous possibilty for all meditators to come and feel at home somewere in the world. I always remember when I first many years ago heard him speak of his dream to built a paradise for meditators in Cyprus. Now he have done it! And the best of all, he showed me that anything is possible even if you think you are useless. In my case the meditationfriends and the programs taught gaved me among other thing mostly the singingvoice back.
I'm very greatfull to all the people I met in northern Cyprus and also for the beauty and grandeur of the nature. And most of all the wonderful sight and sounds of the seawaves.

Happiness is the grandmark of all my visits in Cyprus!
Thank you all teachers that gaved me back my selfconfidence!!

When I first started to meditate I dindt think much over it, but as the month passed by I found myself completly changing the outlook on my world. I meditated and still do twice a day.
Before I had been engage in the womens lib. organisation but that ended with a realisation in my mind soon. " I had only been projecting my own dissillussion in men into my involvement in the womens liberationb" etc. It was first when I gaved myself time to sit down and see my thought running by during the meditation that I could see my own mistakes and then correct them. The enormous deep rest that I got during my meditations made it possible for me to have enegy enough to change my life for the better.
I left this kind of organisation and is now a happy mother of 3 children. I love my work at a hospital in Sweden. I have been able to introduce Q-gong and meditation to my co/workers and they say they feel better even them.
For the first time in my life I can say that I,m really happy. I also see that this is a result of myself doing the program of meditation on a regular basis. My hope is now to come to Cyprus with all of my family and join the programs that I have heard so many other people speak about after having coming home from the courses in Cyprus.
Maybe I can learn more in combination with holiday for my whole family! This is my wish.

Since I am doing the Vedic Mantra Meditation my life has changed very much. I notice me, everybody and everything around me much more conscious. I am coming more and more to my soul.

The holidays in 2005 and 2006 on Cypres by Conny Larsson were very great events for me. On the Island of Aphrodite I have felt the positiv vibration of love. Many thanks to the Universum for these experiences.

Petra Weidle, 62 years

My name is Ania. I'm 61 and I have been retired for 6 years. I live in Poznan, Poland, and for 3 years I have been running my own big Yoga Centre called Harmony, in which I teach people Hatha Yoga and meditation with mantra.

I began my adventure with yoga 11 years ago when my health was in terrible condition. I started looking for help as the pain in my spine was so acute that I could hardly move. I then found my first teacher and started exercising Hatha Yoga. I felt relief.

In 1999 I met Conny Larsson who came to Poznan and held a meditation course which I attended. The course made an enormous impression on me. I started regularly practicing the asanas of Hatha Yoga and meditating with mantra. My life was changing for the better at an amazing pace. I started living to the full. I gained self-confidence and believed that I could do things which seemed impossible before. Every day as if I was born anew. I was discovering power inside me and felt that despite my calendar age, I was younger, healthier and happier. Slowly I started to understand cosmic laws, which allowed me to develop and make visible changes. Meditation with mantra made my mind observant and attentive. I stopped doing asanas mechanically and my body became for me a place for everyday research and experiments. Working in this way day by day I restored balance in my physical body, during meditation I was removing from my mind fear and fatigue and exercising the asanas of Hatha Yoga I was putting back in order my crooked bones. Mantras which I got from Conny effectively helped me clean my body from inside. They were like a balm for my searching soul. I feel safe with them successively overcoming thresholds in my everyday practice. Conny gave me a wonderful divine grain and I work every day on growing it.

Now I am happy. Thanks to Conny I have found my destiny and purpose in life. Ever since I met him he has been my main inspiration and engine behind everything I do. Since 2001 he has been coming to Poznan on my invitation two or three times a year. Conny holds meditation courses, comes to holiday with us, motivates everyone to work on their development and makes vacation more attractive for everybody. After every meeting with him I become stronger, wiser and more motivated to work harder. My big and beautiful HARMONY Yoga Centre was created thanks to him.

I just would like to tell you that we all have arrived back to Germany well. Thanks for the nice welcome to cyprus and the great time there. We all could learn so much for our lifes. Thanks also to Anja for the very good yoga lessons. It is unbelievabal how much the body can be shaped within that short time. Also the work shop "radical forgiveness" was very effective and good for all of us. Thanks to you all there in Cyprus for the great week.

All the best to you!
Anne

Thank you Conny for a week of meditation and yoga that was enlightening at many levels. It was truly an experience to remember. I know the course was valuable not only for those who had many years of experience with meditation and yoga but for novices like myself.

To visit Cyprus, Conny and Agneta was a very nice experience.
As Conny knows a lot of useful people he always is able to organize and arrange things very nicely. He can arrange for transportation from airport to and from the Hotel if you let him know in good time so he is prepared.
The Top Set Hotel is a very nice hotel just by the Sea.
You can choose between taking a bathe either in the Sea or in the pool in the beautiful garden outside the hotel.
Last year I was joining a quite big Swedish Group outside Girne 23 October until Nov 5. The weather was almost all the time very good and sunny.
We had a marvellous time.Busy with all kind of activities through all the days of our visit. Yoga and Meditation early inte morning and in the afternoon.
Quigong, Buddha Meditation, excursions to different places around the area was arranged for Interesting lectures in the evenings. The program was really interesting and good. We also had time to be in the sun and to bathe in the salt and fresh Sea.
One day I was shown the Top Set Hotel and I really liked it.
The room I was shown had a wonderful view outside the window you could see the magnificent Sea and also the nice little garden with the swimmingpool.
The Personal Staff was also very polite and nice. From my days with Conny and Agneta last year I am sure they will make a new perfect program for this year.

Barbro Larsson,

I am most grateful for what I have experienced and learned in my two weeks at Conny's meditation group. I feel a deep change within after this yourney. Conny contributes with all his knowledge, his magic and his whole person, which this year has become two, since Vyassa has taken place in Conny's body. Very exciting!
There was an interesting mix of teachers and lecturers. Ania is still going strong with her yoga. It was a pleasure to see and talk to the fantastic Irena Rutenberg. Her workshop Radical Forgiveness is very strong. Viola Edwards and Helen Jidds were two coulorful lecturers.
I am glad I met so many nice participants from Germany, Sweden, Poland and Cyprus.
I am also glad that we were back at Top Set Hotel. It is not too big, it is familiar and very kind. The rooms are fantastic! The situation of the hotel is perfect; near to the village, dolmuses to both Girne and to the countryside.
Every one, teachers, lecturers, participants, hotel staff, has contributed in her or his specific way to make this visit a meaningful inner and outer trip. Thank you all!
