Daniel Hertlein is an internationally recognized spiritual teacher and author. Born in Munich and growing up in a Christian environment with much reference to Eastern wisdom, he was engaged in body and energy work, martial arts, Zen, Yoga and spiritual transformation processes of different traditions.
As father of two children, he experienced enlightenment in 2007 after an intensive mindfulness and meditation practice with the Zen Master Richard Baker Roshi. Thereupon he underwent a profound “cleansing of the heart” and received numerous initiations by the lightfull masters of the spiritual world.
Since then, he has dedicated himself to sharing his teachings in satsangs, workshops, retreats and online events. He publishes his books, eBooks, CDs and MP3s through his own publishing house, making them accessible to a wide audience.
People from all walks of life, ages and fields of activity – from business and politics to art, design and sport – seek his advice and spiritual guidance.
With his authentic and practical approach, he travels to different countries throughout the year to inspire and bring spiritual awakening to life.
A central component of his work is the leading of the practice place “Refugio Vita Luminosa” in Italy, which was created in collaboration with his students. In this spiritual center, his teachings can be anchored and deepened in the long term.
