– 2 June 2023
My longtime friend and business partner
by Devam Sankalpa
Swami Anand Sarvam (aka Peter Vollmer) left his body on 2nd of June 2023.
We first met in the Cologne Commune in the ’80 and became longtime friends and business partners for 33 years.
He lived in Cologne for many years and was part of the Commune construction company, while regularly visiting the Ranch in Oregon. After the end of the Commune, he stayed on in Cologne and did some real estate work, alternating with trips to Pune. When Osho left his body, Sarvam was in Pune.
That year, in 1990, we started our Handmade Paper business that is running to this date. I could not have wished for a better and more reliable partner.
Sarvam enjoyed life in all its aspects. He was very sporty; be it swimming, sailing, wind surfing or race cycling. And he loved dining out with friends and being in Nature.
As he was also very photogenic, he worked as a model in advertising, which he did as a little side gig.
Over the course of these last 12-14 month he had to face strong physical and mental challenges and finally developed a pulmonary embolism.

Wow, Sarvam, you funny man.
I remember you from the Cologne Commune and later years in Pune and Cologne.
Somehow I hear your voice and see you smile.
Fun times and deep talks…
What a blessed life!

Oh, I am deeply touched by your passing… I appreciate and remember your being full of empathy, warmth, understanding and love… It seems an eternity ago that I had therapy sessions with you in Cologne…
Love and peace,

Sarvam was a very sweet and playful friend I had the pleasure of knowing and connecting with over the years. A bright and simple soul whom I loved.
Journey on, Sarvam, as you return to Love,

Farewell my friend.
