Jes Bertelsen

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jes Bertelsen (* 1946 ) is a Danish consciousness researcher and author of numerous books.

Jes Bertelsen studied at the University of Aarhus , Denmark, where he taught himself from 1970 to 1982. Bertelsen obtained the doctoral degree dr. phil. of the Institute for the History of Ideas at Aarhus University. Today he heads the Vækstcenter (growth center) in Nørre Snede, Jutland, Denmark, which he founded in 1982 together with Hanne Kizach. In his classes he strives for a synthesis of Eastern and Western spiritual knowledge and forms of practice in the light of modern psychological and philosophical thinking.

His work comprises 19 books, from categori og afgørelse - Strukturer i Kierkegaards tænkning (Category and Decision - Structures in Kierkegaards Thinking) (1972) to Dzogchenpraksis (2003) - German: Dzogchenpraxis (2006). His dissertation on Kierkegaard , Jung and Kant was published in 1974 under the title Ouroboros - en undersøgelse af selvets Strukturer (Ouroboros - An investigation into the structures of the self) . The focus of his later books are the subjects of depth psychology, self-development and meditative practice.

In 1989 Jes Bertelsen met the Tibetan teacher Tulku Urgyen . This encounter is reflected in his later books as well as in his teaching, which focuses more and more on meditative forms of practice. Another source of inspiration for Jes Bertelsen is the tradition of the heart prayer in the Eastern Church, as it is u. a. unfolded on Mount Athos in Greece .
