A Journey of Inner and Outer Landscapes

Hi, most people call me Patrick—or Pato, or Pati; take your pick. My journey has been deeply steeped in the wonders of this Earth, the exploration of consciousness, and the "dance" of living an ecstatic life. Like any path worth taking, it has come with plenty of challenges. Those hurdles have supported me in growing into the fullness I carry today, giving me a grateful perspective for the lessons that continue to arise.

I have been fully immersed in spiritual exploration for over 15 years. For me, witnessing the mystery of consciousness—both within and without—is a constant source of "winks" and clues from the universe.

From Cultural Frustration to Conscious Design

My "non-ordinary" lifestyle was sparked by looking at our modern culture through a lens of frustration. I saw a society deep in a rabbit hole of confusion, hustle, and external blame—a culture that often considers destructive habits "normal." I found myself asking: How could the most intellectually capable species on the planet develop a culture that ensures its own self-destruction?

This question led me to the internal realms of consciousness, and eventually, to Costa Rica and the principles of permaculture. I discovered permaculture as a way of structuring society to live in synergy with our planet. As my inner planes of awareness opened, so did the outer ones. The arbitrary boundaries between "me" and "other" began to dissolve. I learned to quiet my mind enough to truly listen—to the land, to people’s energy beyond their words, and to the unseen beings present with us. I realized that the interconnectedness of this universe is not just a concept; it is alive and thriving.

Rooted in the Himalayas: Himalayan Kriya Yoga

My passion for generating symbiotic living systems eventually led me to India. After practicing Kriya Yoga for nearly a decade, I knew it was time to learn from the source. I traveled to commune with the Himalayas and studied at the Sattva Yoga Academy in Rishikesh, where I became a Master Certified Teacher.

I was initiated into the ancient technology of Himalayan Yog-Vedantic Kriya Yoga. This rich oral tradition was held close to the mountains for centuries, only recently being shared more broadly as humanity’s need for tools to break through the "illusion of the separate self" became clear.

An Invitation to Presence

It is a great honor to carry these teachings. They have provided me with a personal stability that doesn’t waver when life gets loud. Today, I share these practices to support others in accessing a deeper peace—a feeling that can only be described as "coming home."

Whether you are seeking nervous system regulation, permaculture design, or an initiation into this sacred lineage, I am here to support those who desire a deep dive into the ancestry of Self-Realized beings.

If my "flavor" resonates with you, come along. If it doesn't, I trust you will find the guide who does. May we all taste the ecstasy of existence and allow it to move us through the unique brilliance of our diversity.
