He claimed:
"I am the one who has gained the initiation into mahayana, and transferred it to Europe, to pass it on as a fruit of auspicious karma, to people who are already at the end of the deathful night of unknowing."
Already as a teenager he was said to have recognized and to the deepest details personally realized the highest ideals of the Orient, without losing contact with his worldly life. Later he formulated his direct experience as an original (not learned from books) spiritual teaching which is based on the psychology and mentality of a contemporary European. The teaching he formulated guides its followers through their life improving their whole being; it does not deal with just the physical, moral or mental component but it harmoniously develops all of them at once. In view of the world's foremost religions his teaching is closest to the mahayana Buddhism. It is claimed that the buddhist characteristic of his teaching appeared because he was a tulku of Marpa the Translator, the forth member of the dynasty of gurus of the Kagyu lineage. He claimed to be the sixth member of this dynasty, right after Milarepa. The Tibetan disciples of Milarepa such as Dagpo Lhadze, also known as Gampopa (1079-1153), and others, were the founders of the Kagyu order. Kvetoslav claimed to have accomplished the transfer of his whole being into one single point and recognized it as the infinity through his mystical practice. He claimed therefore that he has transferred the Kagyu teaching to Europe through the spiritual means of his realizations and by his direct knowledge.
Kvetoslav Minarik explains the spiritual teachings from a different viewpoint in each of his books to make them accessible to a broad range of readers. Almost all of his life's opus has already been published by CANOPUS - The Kvetoslav Minarik's foundation (in Czech only).
After the death of Kvetoslav Minarik the continuation of the teaching is secured by:
Issuing all of his written works, which is being done by his direct disciple PhDr. Zora Subrtova. As living successors of the teaching Kvetoslav, the Master, named two gurus. Here in the main center of the Kvetoslav's teaching (in Prague, Czech Republic) it is Josef Studeny and for the German speaking region, with a center in Vienna, it is Ing. Roman Mandys. Kvetoslav's books, however, have not yet been published systematically in German, only in Czech.
