Yuval (Govert Jan van den Eijk)
Yuval left his body at the age of 77, on August 25, 2024
Contributor to Many Auroville Projects
Yuval (Govert Jan van den Eijk) came to Auroville from the Netherlands as a volunteer and joined Auroville in 2008. He lived in Utility and lately at Mahalakshmi Home.
At heart, Yuval was first and foremost a pioneering adventurer. Born in the Netherlands, he embarked on his first adventure at the age of 19, when he left for Israel, later moving to Egypt, Copenhagen and Istanbul and finally coming to Auroville in 2004.
Yuval contributed to many projects around Auroville but was best known for his work in the field of Family Constellations, where his intuitive and humble way helped people reach deep realisations.
As Yuval struggled with Parkinson's disease in the last years, his optimism and positive outlook were an inspiration to others around him.
He was loved and respected by many and the outpour of appreciation and love has been overwhelming.
Yuval left his body at the age of 77, on August 25, 2024, Sunday night, in his home, while held by his four children Oerie, Dana, Ido and Noa, and the mother of his children Amalia. There could not have been a more beautiful way for him to go.
He continues to be loved and will be missed dearly.
