Steppps – Friedenspilgern

The reatreat happened from the 22nd of August to the 2nd of September. Coming there I am asked to serve the course. I really want to participate, to sit in silence the 10 days, because the technic opened up so many processes on different areas in my body, that I want to take the chance […]

Dear friends, It’s already the 13th of October when I do start updating the blog for the last 7 weeks. I am sitting in Skarma’s Ladakhi house on 3.300m elevation in Shushot Yokma, 12 km outside of Leh/Ladakh/India. The sun is shining bright outside, its around 11am, the snow toppef mountains are also shining in […]

ack in Leh and Bliss I am back in Ladakh. The last week was filled with arriving back and feeling very welcomed. It was filled with giving two interviews, one to a radio station, one to a newly published magazine. It was filled by a talk I gave in a local very sympatic 'Metta cafe' […]

Schedule and Visa It’s only a few days ago, that I got the result of my Visa application. After I got through a lot of emotional and mind chaos. Not clear, if someone did a mistake, or a big misunderstanding happened, anyway…. The result is, within the next year I get only 2×90 days Visa […]

After completing 18.000 km I meet the Hell-race-people. It’s just mind blowing what these organize. They have some runners who are running in 120 hours, 5 days,  a distance of 475 km from Manali to Leh through all this high passes. (Includes sleeping time) Some other runners do 5 marathon in 5 days through this […]

The last two walking days, to much traffic on the road. Season is getting high…. to much honking…. no clue where Sunil is, he must have passed…. One afternoon in Pank, I told the both ladys Sonem and Tshimet, who helped me with my special food wishes, I have to go to my room (dormitory) […]

It’s always a joy,  to walk for peace, …. But here, back in the high mountains,  after Spiti, just fantastic. Not without any ‚work out‘, but just wonderful. I feel sooo good at 4.000 m and above…. great. In Sarchu the first surprise. All the ‚villages‘ at the next 300km are only there in summer, […]
