During covid the world slowed down. We stopped to run and the only possible direction left was to go within. Exactly at this time I noticed the invitation for Satori group with Ganga. I did not go there with a clear intention or expectation, rather with curiosity and a silent feeling, that I wanted to go closer to something. I did not know even to what yet.

The work with koan - a question, which cannot be answered by our head - triggers a movement into a depth. As if one domino would touch another. It starts on the surface and gradually plunges deeper, one is often surprised by what one can discover. Where the mind fails, something else starts to answer. For me it was like looking into a mirror but not from outside but from within.

Silence, clear structure and a common frame created a space, where I could go deep inside of me. Layer after layer something was getting peeled and then the instances of "no-mind" - these precious moments where the mind stops, because it cannot find a way. Places, where there is nothing and yet something fundamental is happening there. We were there together and yet alone. Shared depth without words.

Satori was an experience for me, which I do not want to explain or name. It is an experience which has stayed open ever since.

Satori has been the most intense and most transformative groups, that I have ever experienced. I have been already three times and this year I go again.
When I was in Satori group for the first time, I met my ego fully and my stuckness. Today I already know that I was fighting with myself - with my mind and my ideas, that I was creating. Satori has such an ingenious structure - clear intention, daily regime and loving support from Ganga - all together it helped me to let go. I experienced an incredible relaxation and release, space, that I did not know that it existed. I go back often into these experiences in daily life - whenever I get stuck or lost in my own mind.
