Brian’s essence radiates a serene light, complimented by his gentle humor, which instantly captivated all who attended. His method of imparting wisdom is profound. Brian has an innate ability to touch the very core of our being, reaching people at a soul level with his gentle but powerful insights. The connection he facilitated during his meditation session and sharing was nothing short of transformative. We are grateful for the opportunity to receive his wisdom and await the day when he returns to Albuquerque.

Unity of Flagstaff Spiritual Center was blessed to host Traveling Monk Brian Lottman. The gift of his presence will not soon be forgotten. "Truly transcending", "I felt so connected to the ONE", were just a few of the comments shared by community members. Brian created a safe space that provided the opportunity for those attending his meditations to bridge the many available states of consciousness. It was "easy" and inspiring in the room. Brian is a welcome new addition to our Unity Family. We appreciate him and look forward to his return.

Brian Lottman visited Unity South Twin Cities in September 2023. My community was so grateful for his visit. He spoke in our Sunday Service and led a 90-minute Satsung. Everyone who participated reported they received great value in his presence. The most common remark was that they felt spiritually fed. As a Unity minister. I appreciate that he led us into profound silence. Our basic Unity premise is that everything begins in the silence; therefore, Brian's lesson and Satsang met us at our foundation. I hosted him, and his presence in my house was a joy and a blessing. We all look forward to whenever he can visit the Twin Cities again.

Thank you for "traveling thousands of miles" to join us at Unity of Lehigh Valley this past weekend. Your loving, prayerful presence truly touched and was a blessing to both our in-person and online community. Hearts, including my own, were awakened. I am also grateful I had space to host you in my home. I was blessed by our rich conversations, as well as your healing ritual for my mobility. Thank you for your blessing.

The Unitarian Universalist Church of Utica NY hosted a 90-minute evening event with Brian. He talked about spirituality, about his personal journey, and guided a meditation. Brian also led us in chanting accompanied with his melodeon. 26 people attended, a mix of church members and folks who came as a result of announcements we sent around to yoga studios or who saw our publicity. We received personal follow up thank-you’s from most who came, mentioning they hope we can have Brian again next year. We’ve never had a wandering monk at UUUtica. Brian sent us a blind email with some links, which I clicked on just out of curiosity. Brian’s joyfulness came through immediately, even thru the distance of the internet. This is very much in keeping with our mission as a church – to provide a wide variety of spiritual experience. In fact, we hope to arrange Brian’s next visit to be at a time when he can also be a guest presenter during a Sunday morning service.

Brian Lottman is a blessing to the world of Spiritual practice. His gentle guidance in leading Satsang in our community left us all feeling deeply connected to the Source. The inspired message and easeful approach in group chanting in Sanskrit was truly magnificent. I am deeply grateful to have been able to experience the practice with this master and look forward to welcoming him back to our community.

Brian Lottman, the traveling monk, visited our church on July 30 2023. It was a wonderful experience listening to his candid, honest inspiring talk of his spiritual journey. His speech was simple but complex and he spoke with a peaceful yet powerful energy.
Our congregation loved both the talk and the Satsang that he led at our church. It was a transcending experience. We look forward to him hopefully coming to visit us again.

Thank you, Brian, for sharing your gifts with us at our service last evening. Your faith and trust with God, Jesus, the Divine Spirit, is so heart felt as you share your emotions, share your words, and share your energy. I have many times spoke about how we all are here for a purpose, and how God has planted in your heart at your time of birth, a golden seed, of what your purpose is to be. And if you allow your heart be a compass, it will guide you towards your true purpose. Trust its whispers, for it knows the way to your soul's fulfillment. And when you have found your spiritual gift, GOD will give you an opportunity to use it. And you are so blessed, you have trusted and followed your heart. I am looking forward to see you once again next year.

We recently had the privilege of hosting Brian Lottman, a traveling monk, at our studio, Core Pilates and Yoga, and it was a truly enriching experience.

Brian's unwavering commitment to his practice served as a beacon of inspiration, encouraging everyone to embark on their own journey of self-discovery.

I feel so blessed to have had Monk, Brian Lottman in my home. Brian is such a down home kind of personality who understands deeply the matters at hand. I feel that God sent him to us to help at a deeper level than I even was aware of.
We at Carmel Temple were blessed to have had him in our presence. Brian presented beautiful stories that could be felt in the heart and understood by our little ego minds. His words are beautifully simple and expressive and so loving. Love and appreciation and many blessings to you, Brian Lottman, for your having shared your presence with us.

There are very few people who can bring my spirit out and give me the feeling of pure healing and love. With his words and just the sound of his voice, Brian has taken me to places within that I never thought I had. His chants and breathing techniques have allowed me to not only go deeply in a meditative state, but at the same time, I have astral projected, floating out of my body healing my heart and loving myself from inside out.

After having had several conversations with Brian Lottman, I knew that I absolutely wanted to spend my birthday in the presence of someone who's expression of love is more than just a word said. He embodies Love and radiates it with such peacefulness. It was a wonderful afternoon, of chanting, singing, meditating, stories and beautiful love, love, love. You are invited to share Satsang with us again.

One of the central tenants of our faith at Centers for Spiritual Living is meditation, but people often require exposure to different methods before they feel success. Brian has a gift in being able to explain, demonstrate, and give people the experience of the ancient form of Vedic/Hindu chant. It expanded our members understanding of meditation,
and awakened Spirit in a loving and divine way. We were so grateful to have him visit. Thank you Brian.

Dear Brian,
It was amazing experience or should I say an enlightening experience. I met with medium, Gwen Smith, the following day, and she could see my aura. She told me that it was clear, bright and sparkling. I can feel that my energy has a beautiful clarity. Thank you again for the gift of your presence.

I attended a satsang with Brian in Sedona, Arizona recently. The first thing I noticed was the love that shone out of his eyes! Truly angelic! The satsang experience was powerful and loving. Brian's beautiful energy facilitated a much needed heart opening for me. And for that I am truly grateful. I so look forward to experiencing his loving presence again!

I met Brian when he travelled to the Northern California area, seeking to facilitate Satsangs at various yoga and spiritual centers. I am like a mother hen when it comes to protecting this Unity of Stockton community. I checked him out, as I do all guest speakers, before I said yes to his invitation. I watched one of his livestream Satsangs. I looked at his website and his Facebook page. I talked with him on the phone. I talked with him about Unity's teachings. I hosted Brian at my home while he was in town, and found his personality to be quiet, polite, respectful, loving and positive. He acted with integrity, conscientiousness, and with a sense of responsibility.
Brian conducted two Satsangs for our community. His first Satsang for Unity of Stockton was on a Saturday morning. It was well attended, about a third of our congregants, as well as others from the Stockton community, were present. Brian’s message about the wonderment of our value and worth as spiritual beings, accompanied by the hauntingly sacred music from his harmonium, as he sang of our divine essence, was well-received by attendees at this Unity of Stockton sponsored event. Many of us felt a deep stirring in our souls. Due to popular demand, we invited Brian to return for a second Satsang two weeks later, so that we could experience the intense healing one more time, before he left for his spiritual journey throughout the United States. Based on the positive comments from our attendees about their experiences, Brian was invited by several surrounding yoga and spiritual centers in several Northern California cities, to do Satsangs there as well. Again, he was well received, and the events were well attended. We look forward to asking Brian back again.

What an incredible gathering of souls last night for our “Awakening the Chakras” workshop with Brian Lottman, aka The Wandering Monk. It was truly special to hear about Brian’s unique journey, learn about the teachings of the chakra system, and experience a guided chakra meditation. Brian’s guidance, the mantras chanted, and the collective energy made it a transformational experience of which I am still feeling the effects. I’m deeply grateful for the studio, Brian, our teachers and students, and the shared experience. Stacey Field
