Vision
The newly established OM Foundation Inner Science aims to promote the dissemination of deep wisdom teachings, to enable seekers to meet with spiritual teachers, and to provide a fundamental understanding of Inner Science.
Coming from the silent tradition, OM C. Parkin knows how to put the lived Eastern Advaita teachings in line with Western Christian mysticism, thus serving the timeless integral teaching from the source.
It is about being close to one’s own heart, in a fiery encounter and connected with the soul of the world – welcome home!
The meaning of human existence is the knowledge of the true nature of man.
The only useful purpose of the present birth is to turn within and realize the Self.
There is nothing else to do.
Ramana Maharshi
Comments on the vision from the circle of company members
The OM Foundation Inner Science gGmbH (non-profit limited liability company) is supported by 21 company members, including the initiator OM C. Parkin himself. Here are a few voices from the circle of those who have been active from the very beginning, inviting you to experience the founding impulse, the first phase of stepping out into the world and the personally felt significance of founding this foundation. Welcome to the large circle of people for whom the tasks of the OM Foundation for Inner Science are a matter of the heart!
“The establishment of the OM Foundation for Inner Science means a lot to me. I cannot yet fully grasp the real meaning myself, but I can perceive that the foundation represents the innermost being and will express it in the outer world. The OM Foundation reminds you of what really matters. It brings you closer to the essence of our existence. It offers a stage for various masters and teachers, and thus enables us to gain insight into their wealth of knowledge and wisdom. I became a member because I expressed my heart’s desire. And through my participation I would like to make exactly this message accessible to people, to go for their heart’s desire and explore it through inner science.”

“Inner science for me means the clarity of seeing – of what is and what is not. It took me a time of approach to realize that science is not a dry discipline separated from feeling, but the tool to gain true knowledge. True knowledge integrates the firepower of the gut, the feeling, sober heart and the awakening of the inner eye. True knowledge is that which frees me from suffering and opens the view to what IS. This is my heart’s desire, realized and embodied by my teacher OM C. Parkin and the students of the inner path, who connect and work in this foundation. I see the OM Foundation Inner Science as a core, a community of people who – each through their individuality – brings the true teaching into the world.”

“Who investigates what? For me, the researcher, to look at myself together with the object of research means a new dimension of science. It makes me feel the spirit of research and all of my feelings, sometimes pain, humility, basically love. It is an intimate trace and a departure for new horizons. For me it also means something like a direct reward on the path of exploration. And it is completely free of the staleness that collected second-hand knowledge often brings with it.
In this sense, it makes a lot of sense for me to participate in the OM Foundation for Inner Science.”
Andreas v. Oertzen
“Since childhood and youth there has been a thirst for knowledge and a thirst for research in me, science has always attracted me. The fact that this was allowed to turn inwards through the encounter with OM is a blessing for me. “Inner science is the most powerful tool we have at our disposal and whoever knows how to apply it will find access to reality” says OM. It is my heart’s desire to carry this tool of liberation into the world, so that it is available to all people who are willing to research, learn and do inner science. Thus, it is a natural and powerful step for me to be a member of the OM Foundation for Inner Science, whose lifelong task is to convey what Inner Science is.”
Elina Hildebrand
“My wish is that with the OM Foundation for Inner Science the heart’s concern, the concern of the soul, will once again come to the fore: the inwardness, the inner being, the self – in its finest and most delicate forms. We have a wonderful Place of Stillness, which is increasingly developing into a modern monastery – as a symbol of the inner being. And now the energy may flow back (this is how we once started – with the Allionce) into the teaching, into the finer aspects of integral yoga.
It touches me to feel the delicate power. It needs my devotion, my attention, my attentiveness and my watchfulness. And then my own remembering connects with the passing on of this invaluable knowledge, this – marriage of love and truth”.
