M. Aïvanhov</strong>'s teaching continues to grow. Many are influenced by it in the way they lead their lives, and we regularly receive testimonials of their experience. Others have been inspired to write books on a wide range of subjects related to spirituality, philosophy, religion, yoga, psychology or medicine.</p>\n<p class="intro">They are all sensitive to the living and tangible character of his teachings: the parallels he draws between the physical and psychic worlds, the different methods he offers make even the most abstract philosophical notions accessible and applicable.

One should be a contagious, stimulating, irresistible example! »</div>\n</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td height="80"> </td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<table style="width: 612px; height: 200px;" rules="none" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="5">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style="vertical-align: top; text-align: center;" width="20%"><a href="https://www.prosveta.fr/resources/sites/@site_id/images/images_oma/oma_bio_7_big.jpg" class="html5lightbox" title="Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov back from India in 1960"><img src="https://www.prosveta.fr/resources/sites/@site_id/images/images_oma/oma_bio_7.jpg" alt="Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov" width="150" height="208"></a></td>\n<td style="vertical-align: middle;">\n<div class="temoignage">« Everything was linked and coherent in brother Mikhaël's life.
