About Tony Samara
With the guidance of Tony Samara, discover a path of profound transformation, evolution of consciousness and inner peace. This path is open to all people from all walks of life who seek Health, Happiness and Inner Wisdom.
After living for several years in a Zen Buddhist monastery, Tony Samara ventured to the jungles of South America - to the Amazon and to the Andes - where he lived and studied among a community of Shamans.
After many years he was initiated in the sacred healing ways of these ancient peoples, and left South America to teach and share this deep wisdom with the world.
Tony Samara is now visited by people from all parts of the world and from all walks of life, seeking spiritual guidance or simply the experience of being in his presence.
He is a mirror of what is possible, a shining reminder of the endless potential of being human.
The completely natural state of joy and wisdom experienced as the heart opens to life is the remarkable path he expounds. The path that is free for everyone to experience.
Verbal dialogue is not the essence of his teachings, but he explains in a direct and simple way that everyone can understand, how each individual can practically integrate greater acceptance, peace and joy into their daily lives.
Tony teaches with humour, humility and with infinite patience, empowering the individual with courage, trust and inner strength to continue on this journey back into wholeness, a path that leads towards real freedom.
Like many spiritual teachers, Tony Samara is concerned with practical inner work and liberation. He teaches by personal example and instruction, guiding the seeker to realise bliss here and now, through growing spiritual awareness rather than mental effort.
Part of Tony's teachings remind us that food and eating are fundamental to our inner well being, as well as to our physical health. He explains in his many programmes that the body is our temple and that the food we eat helps us to create a strong foundation that allows inner work and transformation to take place. He also explains that food is not just a physical substance which nourishes the body but that it also contains spiritual and emotional energy. Hence the importance of being conscious and taking the time to be present when we are eating and to become more sensitive to what will nourish our body, our temple rather than eat only what we feel like eating.
Tony also encourages a balanced vegetarian diet which includes organic products that are full of life force.
"Conscious evolution is ultimate freedom. Overcoming the fear of what lies ahead, by illuminating the spiritual dimension within our nature, is awakening to the splendour of our hearts.
It is said that the mind clarifies matters and reveals truth, but, in fact, it creates confusion for the heart. True reality dwells in its natural center — the heart: the heart is the path to self-realization.
The totally natural state of joy and wisdom experienced as the heart opens to the truth, is the remarkable state of being, free for all to experience."

I'm exploring how to live as a Soul Being in a Soul-less world, and next week I'm going to be writing a feature on everyday spirituality for Natural Health magazine. I would very much value your wisdom and input. If you would like to share any thoughts or tips on living in a spiritual way, I would be very pleased. I am looking at:
ways of building spirituality into your everyday routine,
how you make time for meditation/ prayer,
how you try to alter your interactions with others - we are all just souls doing our best,
your favourite festivals/celebrations - what else is there, apart from the Christian calendar,
the blessings you use,
the mantras you use,
how do you see the everyday in a spiritual way,
what to avoid (people, media etc which create negativity),
the spiritual family/ network in a world that shuns spirituality.
Thank you for any input you can give, Tony. Hope it is okay to ask. Feel free to ignore or respond. Hope to hear from you!
Nameste.
