Arunachala: A Silent Tribute to Markus Horlacher

It is said that Arunachala calls to those souls who are ready to rest in the stillness of Being. Markus Horlacher was one of those souls. He held a deep love for Tiruvannamalai and the Holy Mountain—a devotion that resonates through every photograph he captured.

These images are more than just snapshots of a landscape; they are windows into the peace that Markus found there. Having recently passed away in India, he remains forever connected to the place that was both his heart and his home.

This video is a final tribute to a friend, a seeker, and a gifted photographer. May these images remind us that the Presence he saw in Arunachala is timeless and unchanging.

"The Heart is the only light that never goes out."

In loving memory of Markus Horlacher.

Thank you for showing us the Arunachala through your eyes.

CONSTANT MEDITATION

As for happiness, it is one's essential nature. All suffering and misery pertain only to the body. If you do not identify yourself with the body, then the problem is not there.

Remember that the next breath may be your last and focus all your energies on self-enquiry.

Unless your spiritual practices are constant and steady, the tendency for action or inaction will gain the upper hand. You should, by effort, counter these tendencies and try to remain in a state of equilibrium.

In such a state, there is only peace and perfect contentment. As the spells of equilibrium increase through constant meditation, then, happiness is felt more and more.
