Marlies Myoku Cocheret ~ Women’s Sensual Satsang (for Women Only)
If traditional non dual Satsang is about waking up out of our bodies to our true transcendent nature “to know we are not this thought, not this feeling, etc.”, then Sensual Satsang is about ‘incending’ back into the body, into the senses, – or more accurately – the body ‘incending’ back into our spacious, silent nature until body and silence melt together as one.
During this Women’s Sensual Satsang, we first anchor ourselves as silence and then through guided practice, we awaken our senses. Along the way, we may bump into parts of ourselves that are disconnected and numb. With tenderness and patience – going only as fast as the slowest part – we invite these parts and the rest of the body to melt into the vast silence, until there is no gap between the two, no divide.
Silence & Sensuality are very close to my heart. Hope to see you in Sensual Satsang!

Stephen Capper ~ The Untouched Within ~ In-Person in Sebastopol
Discover within yourself, what is untouched by conflict. Our days and minds often dwell in conflict: conflict with other people, with various voices and personalities within ourselves, with institutions and authorities, and the political conflicts at home, and in Gaza and the Ukraine. What is untouched by conflict has been called true nature, presence, essence, being, divine, soul... etc. It's through awareness to what we're telling ourselves, and dropping in and embodying our emotions that are arising... that we can open to a deeper truth.
Stephen came to the US from the UK is 1983 to be close to Osho. After Osho left his body he felt the need for a Living Awakened teacher and was introduced to Gangaji and through her the teachings of Papaji, (her teacher) and Ramana, (Papaji’s teacher.) For the last 20+ years he has opened to Gangaji’s message and gone to retreats, weekends, open meetings and has been a volunteer with the Gangaji Foundation. He also went through the one year immersion program at the Leela School of Awakening and the Enneagram mastery program run by Gangaji’s husband Eli Jaxon Bear. Stephen lives with his wife and two cats in Oakland. He is a musician, loves to garden and teaches piano.
