Long ago one of us came up with the idea of an excursion that we could carry out as a team. The old plan was to visit the buddhistic center in Sonsbeck on friday and camp outside somewhere else for the Eastern weekend. We ended up spending three days and two nights in the buddhistic center cause we were stunned by the things we saw and experienced.
It was a magic place. A place where time seemed to pass without noticing. A place so welcoming that you felt home since the very first moment. Everybody living there was just amazingly kind and open-minded. We were offered four beds, food, firewood (and even more!) without being asked to pay for it. Everything that belonged to the owner belonged to us. They trusted us without knowing us. We were foreigners and still their friends from the beginning.
We were so not used to this world that seemed to be completely different to our own. We took part in meditations, enjoyed the peace of nature and started breathing slower for a couple of hours until we finally headed back to our almost "mindempty" lifes and homes.This place will drag each of us back sooner or later. We therefore also agreed to use this place for our presentation concerning the project.
