  • Swami Janakananda är 82 år och har undervisat i djupgående yoga och meditation enligt den tantriska traditionen i drygt 50 år. Hans erfarenhet med yoga började redan när han var åtta år. Han halkade då efter i skolan på grund av rastlöshet och nervositet, och fick tips om en till synes enkel yogaövning - som senare skulle förändra hans liv.

    I sitt utforskande av yogan kom han i kontakt med gurun Swami Satyananda, som blev hans lärare i Indien där han fördjupade sina kunskaper - både om yoga och sig själv.

    År 1970 grundade han Skandinavisk Yoga och Meditationsskola i Köpenhamn, och kort därefter även Håå retreatcenter i Småland och ytterligare en skola i Stockholm.

    I den här intervjun pratar vi om vad yoga och meditation är - och inte är, om hur det har gynnat Swami Janakananda i hans liv och varit ett sätt att utveckla lugn, närvaro, klarhet, kreativitet och energi. Han delar även med sig av sina tankar och insikter kring; människans natur, medvetandet och dess utveckling, dömande och moral, acceptans, autenticitet, chakran och kost - och mycket mer!

    Mot slutet ger han också tips på saker som är bra att komma ihåg när det gäller yoga och meditation, både för nybörjaren och den mer erfarne. Mer information om Swami Janakananda och hans yoga- och meditationsskolor hittar ni här: Skandinavisk Yoga och Meditationsskola

    Där finns också hans djupavslappning yoga nidra att köpa på olika språk.

    Master yourself through yoga with Swami Janakananda

    Swami Janakananda is 82 years old and has been teaching deep yoga and meditation from the tantric tradition in 50 years. His experience with yoga started when he was just eight years old. He was a nervous and anxious child and started to have trouble keeping up in school. Then he was told that he could try a certain yogapose, which later would prove to have a significant impact on his life path.

    As he later was exploring and learning yoga, he met his guru Swami Satyananda, who became his teacher in India, where he deepend his knowledge and practice of yoga - and also learned more about himself.

    In 1970 he founded Skandinavisk Yoga och Meditationsskola in Copenhagen, and shortly after also Håå retreatcenter in Småland and one more school in Stockholm.

    In this interview, we talk about what yoga and meditation is - and what it's not. About how Swami Janakananda has benefited from it and how it can be a tool for developing calmness, be in the present moment, and get more clarity, creativity and energy. He's also sharing some of his insights about human nature, consciousness and it's evolution, judgement and morality, autenticity, acceptance, the chakras, food, and a lot more!

    In the end he also gives some advice about what's good to remember when it comes to yoga and meditation, both for the beginner and people with more experience.

    There you also find yoga nidra to buy in different languages.

    Intro in swedish, english speaking interview from 06:47.

  • This episode is in English

    This episode is a recording of the event Nightfall - Queer Talks & Screenings which took place on Zoom in April 15, 2021. Nightfall is a series of events hosted by SAQMI in both online and physical space. The point of Nightfall is to give a place for LGBTQ+ artists and filmmakers to talk about their work and processes - both for finished works and works in progress.

    During this nightfall we showed two films: Space is quite a lot of things by August Joensalo, An Ode to Self Exploration made by Sofia Aedo Zahou choreographed by Demba Sabally.

    Both films in this programme centered around the experience that we as trans and queer people go through of discovery and exploration of our identities. 

    Where An Ode to Self Exploration uses the body as a site to explore and project this newfound identity, Space is quite a lot of things dives into the abstract and dreamlike quality of internal exploration so you get this nice contrast between public/private. 

    Aesthetically there was also a really nice contrast between the two films, with An Ode to Self Exploration in the concrete city landscape and Space is quite a lot of things much more ethereal and natural.

    Good to note here that August was using the name Aniina during the time of this recording. 

    Bridge to Nika & Eliot

    After talking to Demba and August more about their processes and visions for their work, we brought in two of those featured in August’s film Elliot - who identifies as non-binary - and Nika - who identifies as a non-binary woman.* Here we wanted to continue this theme of self-exploration within our semi-public semi-private intercommunity space on a more personal level - to deepen the experience of the film. By bringing more personal experiences into the conversation to encourage those in the audience to share their experiences too.

  • Meet Nuri, a musician who uses field recordings, pygmy songs and tribal drums. Not to forget drum machines and FAT bass, creating electronic dance music that he calls Afro Bass.
    His full name is Amine Nouri, and he grew up in Tunisia but has spent more than half of the last decade in Copenhagen.
    One of his influences is Stambeli, an ancient Sufi music with ecstatic and healing capacities. Stambeli was once banned in Tunisia, but was nevertheless played and became a symbol of freedom in Nuri’s homeland.
    But his career didn't begin in electronic music – Nuri started out as a drummer when he was 14, playing in various bands.
