"Die Holländerinnen" D. Elmiger (2025) / "Herz der Finsternis" J.Conrad (1899)
Hi,
ausgehend von unserem Interesse an literarischen Bezügen sprechen wir über *Die Holländerinnen* von Dorothee Elmiger (2025) und *Herz der Finsternis* von Joseph Conrad (1899).
Wir widmen uns beiden schmalen Büchern jeweils einzeln und betrachten darüber hinaus ihre Verbindungen und Resonanzen.
Die Teilnahme ist auch dann sinnvoll, wenn nur eines der beiden Bücher gelesen wurde.
Hier die Links zum Inhalt und Bücher :

Chitta Walks - Awareness in Motion
Chitta Walks is for people whose days move fast, while the mind never fully lands. Thoughts keep looping even when nothing is urgent. The body moves, but attention is elsewhere. Over time, this disconnect drains clarity and ease.
This walk is a simple reset.
We meet in Berlin’s Tiergarten and walk at a gentle pace. Parts of the walk are in silence, with light guidance and a few short prompts. The walk itself is the practice, bringing body and mind back into the same moment.
No apps. No performance. Just a clear space to slow down and notice what is happening.
If you want to slow down without withdrawing from life, join a Chitta Walk.
✨ **What to expect (approx. 90 minutes):**
* A short arrival and orientation
* A guided silent walk (phones off, no conversation)
* One concise science-based impulse on attention or stress
* Optional reflection in pairs or small groups
* A simple takeaway or experiment for daily life
🚶**Who this is for:**
* Professionals, creatives, and people in transition.
* People who feel mentally busy and want more clarity and balance.
* Those curious about mindfulness, but grounded and practical.
* Anyone comfortable with silence and gentle self observation.
🔔 **Practical notes:**
* Duration: 60-90 minutes
* Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing
* No prior experience needed
* Group size is limited to keep the space quiet and focused
🧭 **Facilitator:**
My name is Partha Sarathi, you can call me PS. I have lived in Berlin for over 12 years. With a background in physics and materials science, my interest in mindfulness grew through personal experience with stress and health challenges. I facilitate the space and structure of the walk, inviting shared exploration rather than instruction.
🤔 **Why Chitta Walks?**
Chitta is a Sanskrit word referring to the mind or field of awareness, used here in a practical, non-religious sense.
Chitta Walks is about noticing how the mind works by slowing down and walking together. Mindful walking makes thought patterns visible in real time, while moving and sensing in the world.
The name points to a simple capacity: noticing what is happening in the mind without immediately trying to fix, judge, or optimize it.
🌿 **Possible effects:**
A calmer nervous system.
Clearer attention.
A felt sense of being more present in your body.
Subtle insights into how your mind reacts under everyday conditions.
A quieter, more grounded way of moving through the city.
**Come as you are. Walk. Notice. Leave with a little more space inside.**
What is Spiritual Community? (Breakfast edition)
This is the "Breakfast edition" of our events. **Please RSVP reliably latest until Saturday as we have a reservation of a certain number of seats this time...**
***What is Spiritual community?***
*"[W]hat often happens between trying to apply the basics of technical meditation [...] and successful entry into real meditation territory [...] is that we run into the mainstream culture of contemporary meditation scenes and the communities that develop around them. We need support, friends who are into what we are into, good teachers, and places to practice. We wish to be in the company of fellow adventurers rather than be lone wanderers in strange lands. The Buddhist term for this is that we want sangha, a community of like-minded people. Unfortunately, much of what we find is not particularly conducive to healthy adventure and deep exploration at all."* (Daniel Ingram)
**Let's meet for a breakfast and share about the Spiritual Journey and Spiritual Community on a casual Sunday morning.**

"*[I live] in a world of realities, while yours is of imaginings. Your world is personal, private, unshareable, intimately your own. Nobody can enter it, see as you see, hear as you hear, feel your emotions and think your thoughts. ln your world you are truly alone, enclosed in your ever-changing dream, which you take for life. My world is an open world, common to all, accessible to all. In my world there is community, insight, love, real quality; the individual is the total, the totality — in the individual. AII are one and th*e *One is all.*" (Nisargadatta Maharaj
ACX Spring Meetups Everywhere 2026
Let's meet for the [ACX Spring Meetups Everywhere 2026](https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/meetups-everywhere-spring-2026-times) in the Humboldthain!
This will likely be a big meetup, as it was announced by Scott on ACX. From experience, I expect 25–50 attendees.
Humboldthain is good to reach by public transport; the next train stops are S+U Gesundbrunnen and S Humboldthain.
If you’re reading this, you’re invited. Please don’t feel like you "won't be welcome" just because you’re new to the blog, demographically different from the average reader, or hate ACX and everything it stands for. You'll be fine!
I'll buy some snacks; feel free to bring something to share as well. There are also many restaurants around if you get hungry.
Location: Big lawn at the center of Humboldthain — [https://plus.codes/9F4MG9WP+36](https://plus.codes/9F4MG9WP+36)

April book selection: The Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie
For our April gathering, let us delve into Rushdie’s “largest aesthetic achievement,” according to Harold Bloom and what scholars describe as fundamentally a study of alienation and hybrid identity: The Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie.
**About the Book**
*The Satanic Verses* is a complex, magical-realist novel that intertwines multiple storylines involving two Indian expatriates — **Gibreel Farishta**, a famous Bollywood actor, and **Saladin Chamcha**, an immigrant voice actor in Britain — who survive the mid-air bombing of a hijacked plane and fall into a surreal fantasy world. Their experiences blur dream and reality, exploring altered identities, spiritual visions, and personal transformations. One of the key narratives involves a mythical city and a prophet figure named **Mahound**, whose revealed “verses” and tribal conflicts echo and reimagine early Islamic history in dream sequences that question faith, revelation, and authority.
**About the Author**
Salman Rushdie is a British-Indian novelist and essayist, born in 1947 in Bombay (now Mumbai), India.
He was educated in England and he rose to international prominence with *Midnight’s Children* (1981), a landmark novel combining history and magical realism to depict India’s post-independence experience; it won the Booker Prize and is considered one of the most influential novels of the 20th century.
Rushdie is known for his imaginative prose, layered narratives, and exploration of themes such as identity, migration, cultural hybridity, and freedom of expression.
His 1988 novel *The Satanic Verses* brought worldwide attention and controversy, significantly affecting his life and career.
Despite these challenges, he has continued to produce acclaimed fiction and nonfiction, including *The Moor’s Last Sigh*, *Shalimar the Clown*, and the memoir *Knife* (2023), and is widely regarded as a major figure in contemporary world literature.
**About the Meeting**
We will approach the text thoughtfully and without preconceived agendas, experiencing it as a work of literature first and foremost—one that invites reflection, careful interpretation, and respect for diverse perspectives, without seeking to provoke controversy or advance any political or polemical stance.
**About the location**
It will be announced at least 2 days before the event takes place with all the details.
**Event contribution alert**
The event might require a small participation fee (3-5 euros) or the purchase of something to eat or drink in case we are hosted by a coffee shop. I will make sure to communicate that in advance.

Discover what is happening in the next few days
Lesen. Schreiben. Teilen.
**Worum geht’s?**
Entdecke die Kraft der Worte – in Gemeinschaft. In dieser offenen Gruppe lesen wir gemeinsam kurze literarische Texte – Gedichte, Mikrotexte oder Auszüge aus längeren Werken – und lassen uns von ihnen zum Schreiben einladen.
Nach dem gemeinsamen Lesen nehmen wir uns Zeit zum Nachdenken und Austausch. Anschließend schreiben wir 20–30 Minuten Seite an Seite – inspiriert von einzelnen Worten, Sätzen oder dem, was uns gerade bewegt.
Im Mittelpunkt stehen nicht handwerkliche Aspekte, sondern das persönliche Erleben, das Gefühl von Verbundenheit und die Funken, die Worte in uns entzünden können – besonders für Menschen, die belastende Erfahrungen gemacht haben, und alle, die auf der Suche nach neuen Perspektiven sind.
Wer möchte, kann am Ende den Text teilen, der während der Sitzung entstanden ist – genauso willkommen ist es, einfach nur zuzuhören. Das Teilen ist immer freiwillig.
**Die Teilnahme ist kostenlos – und ohne Anmeldung möglich.**
**Über die Gruppenleiterin**
**[Ingrid E. Johnson](https://ingridejohnson.com/de)** ist Deutsch-Amerikanerin, Gründerin von RECASAS und Peer-Support-Spezialistin.
Lesen und Schreiben haben ihr selbst durch schwierige Zeiten geholfen. Schreiben in Gemeinschaft bedeutet für sie eine andere Quelle von Kraft und Inspiration – und genau dieses Erlebnis möchte sie ermöglichen.

Evening of Meditation - At home with your body
We invite you to join our weekly Evenings of Meditation, to gently meet yourself, dissolve stress and live life from beautiful inner states, like calm, joy and connection.
These gatherings are not just about meditating on your own, but a step inward we take together. Each time we’ll look into a particular topic in the light of timeless wisdom, reflect on it in a guided meditation, do powerful Oneness practices for greater wellbeing, and experience Deeksha - which helps to speed up your inner growth.
For more info see: [www.onenessberlin.com](http://www.onenessberlin.com/)
**This week's topic: At home with your body**
Can we experience beautiful inner states while being in a fight with our body? We often may feel disconnected from it, dislike it, and even sometimes abuse it by ignoring its needs. Let’s have a closer look at our relationship with our body, and see how we can feel more at home with it.
🎟️ **Entry**: € 10 for walk-ins (in cash or PayPal) just for us to pay for the space or **[get a ticket from € 5 >](https://momence.com/l/x9hmK0Q8)**

Lets Discuss: Sentimental Value
This time we will be discussing Sentimental Value by Joachim Trier
Film info:
https://www.imdb.com/de/title/tt27714581/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk
you will find us inside the bar usually on the left side. if you dont find us ask at the bar where the filmgroup is sitting.
Don't forget to watch the film before joining the meetup :)
Creating Stories Together
Ever thought, "I like writing, but sometimes I wish I could create stories with people instead of alone"? In this meetup we'll be taking a short creative journey together. We'll start with some short warm ups to get us into the collaborative story-making frame of mind and then, in small groups, we'll create basic character sketches together. We'll then play around with these characters in collaborative stories with a little bit of randomness and some prompting.
It's going to be a mix of a lot of talking along with some writing. It'll be fun, collaborative and pretty fast-paced.
Because we're building each step of this together, there's no "minimum requirement" for writing or storytelling experience. You just need to be keen to be collaborative and imaginative with other people. There's a thought-out set of guidelines to steer us for the event, so you don't have to worry about what to do and can just focus on being creative.
I'll bring everything you need, so you don't need to bring anything.
We'll start at **15h00 sharp -** so please get to Cafe Augusta earlier; I'll be there from 14h30. We'll be done by roughly 16h30. I'll put a little sign on the table that says "Making Stories Together". **If the weather's nice and sunny we might move the meetup outside at 15h00.**
**Please only RSVP if you will definitely come.** Spaces are limited and I need to reserve a table for enough people. Please cancel your RSVP at least 48h before if you can't make it.
The event will be in English.
On mortality
One of the few concepts in the world which every religion, creed, group etc agrees on is that our time on this planet is limited.
Whatever happens to you after that, the stories on that vary from person to person, group to group, but the inevitability of your physical body's limitation is agreed upon by everyone.
Yet, no one wants to talk about it, to contemplate, how awareness of one's mortality has influenced whole of human civilisation.
Even the oldest known literature, Epic of Gilgamesh, is a story about a man/demi-god, wanting to conquer death and achieve immortality, fails to do so.
Life and death have existed side by side closely since forever.
It was just more visible before modernity, because of less advanced medicine, less tamed nature etc.
Today? Well, its the last topic on most minds.
Hence, for this meetup, our topic would be simply, "On mortality".
I have found a cozy little cafe (The cafe has great homemade cakes by the way) near a peaceful cemetery.
Why a cemetery you may ask? And how can it be "peaceful"?
A cemetery may remind you of decay and depression, but instead, it has life all around. Small insects running their society, (if you look closely 😏), flowers, trees, melodic chirping of birds, and the beautiful sunlight tearing through the trees.
It has that contrast of and life and death coexisting so close to one another, which today's human's living in so much safety and certainty mostly get repelled away from and hence avoid discussing about it, is the major theme of this discussion.
Sunday Silent Reading at Monbijou Park
Regisration also available using Luma: https://luma.com/ou2ld1od
Silent Book Club is a group of book lovers who enjoy reading together in public. All books and all readers are welcome.
This page-turning party will unfold in Monbijoupark. We'll meet close to Monbijoubrunnen, the funky looking fountain thing near the entrance from Oranienburger Strasse.

There's no entrance fee, and no food served, because it's a park. So bring your own food and blankets and stuff along with your books and let's have a little picnic.
Grab your favorite book, snag a beverage and/or a snack, and dive into the quietude with us. No quizzes, no pressure, no assigned books - just a group of book-loving souls basking in the beauty of silent reading.
**Our agenda:**
10:30 am - 11 am - Arrivals, setting up blanket, social time
11:00 pm - 12:00 pm - The Great Quiet Reading Hour
12:00 pm- 12:30 pm - Share your reading adventures or just keep exploring the pages

See you there ;)

👉 Turn Your Lived Experience Into Multiple Books Using AI (Ashburn)
**Saturday • May 16 • 2–5 PM • Ashburn, VA**
Many people say they want to write a book someday — **this session helps you start.**
Your life experiences already contain stories, lessons, and insights that could become books. The real challenge is **how to organize those experiences and actually turn them into writing.**
In this interactive session, I’ll share the approach I’m using to build a **multi-book journey based on lived experience.**
So far I have:
📚 **3 books published on Amazon**
📖 **1 more books releasing this year** (end of the year)
📝 **16 additional books planned** — and likely many more.
This session is not about writing **just one book**.
We’ll explore how your experiences can evolve into **multiple books over time**, and how to **use AI the right way to speed up your writing while keeping your voice authentic.**
***
### What We’ll Explore
• Turning life experience into book ideas
• How one journey can become multiple books
• Simple ways to structure stories and lessons
• Using **AI to organize ideas and speed up writing**
• Practical strategies to actually finish a book
**Everyone will leave with the outline of their first book idea.**
**You don’t need writing experience — just curiosity about how your life experiences might turn into ideas worth sharing.**
***
### Event Details
💵 **$25 RSVP — includes coffee + snacks**
📍 **Ashburn, VA** (exact address shared after RSVP)
🕑 **2:00 PM – 5:00 PM**
👥 **Max 10 people** for a small, interactive conversation.
Most attendees are professionals, entrepreneurs, and people navigating reinvention or new chapters in life.
***
# Background — Writing & Reinvention Journey
Writing has been one of the most powerful tools in my own reinvention journey.
What began as reflections during a difficult life transition gradually evolved into published books and a growing body of work focused on reinvention, personal growth, and life transitions.
My goal is not just to write books — but to help others realize that their experiences may also hold stories worth sharing.

A unique musical experience called a "Sound Bath"
Sound bath! What's that?
According to sonic specialist Monte Hansen from Annapolis MD, "A sound bath is an immersion in sound frequency that cleans your soul."
Leave your rubber ducky at home.
Bring your blankey instead, for this super relaxing immersion!
According to cutting-edge doctors from Harvard, some of the deepest most profound healing in the body are accomplished with sound frequency.
That's old news though.
A 2nd century stone relief in the Himalayan mountains shows us that Buddha and his entourage knew this before Christ walked the earth.
The stone relief depicts the Buddha and his buddies playing ancient Tibetan singing bowls.
A sound frequency specialist from the [Human Activation School](https://humanactivation.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d88b4fea1b0f4ceaeb58f0e82&id=d6674b4603&e=465ba11f44), will be playing several of these rare Singing Bowls, some of which are over 200 years old.
A magical alchemy of 7-12 different metals rings in the past, present, and future for our relaxing enchantment.
Even modern doctors are using these old metal bowls for healing, and they are not practicing Buddhists!
As a matter of fact, modern Buddhists no longer use the bowls in their practice.
Come experience these gifts from the past in this NON-religious practice of our present. Come be rejuvenated or just captivated by this unique musical performance.
Bring your pillows, blankeys, and yoga mats and snuggle into the comfort of the tranquil sounds. Feel free to sit, lay, or even stand!
***Did You Know?***
Singing bowls invite the mind and body into a tranquil state of being in which remarkable healing can occur, events that are unexplainable from a conventional biomedical perspective” *Music and the Meditative Mind: Toward the Science of the Ineffable*[Source](https://humanactivation.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d88b4fea1b0f4ceaeb58f0e82&id=9222616fc4&e=465ba11f44) "The sound bath meditation provides a nurturing space to connect and grow spiritually.

In Person: Partnering with Spirit to Solve Problems
“When you open yourself to divine truth, the mere fact that you can
identify a problem means that you have the solution within you. What
you are attempting to achieve through the Spiritual Exercises of ECK is
the expansion of consciousness whereby you can better see the
solution to your problem.”
─ Harold Klemp, The Golden Heart, p. 88
You are Divine Soul – and have the godlike power of creative imagination within
you. Using this power, you can find solutions for every problem and take charge
of your own life.
But how do you actually do it? How can you best tap the creativity of your true
self, and manifest a happier and more productive life for yourself now?
During a lively discussion, we’ll explore ways to more consciously connect with
the Divine power, more effectively address our fears, and transform the way we
identify and work with problems.
All attendees will receive a free copy of the book, “ECK Wisdom on Solving
Problems.”
We look forward to seeing you there!
