In the restaurant, many people were of course curious when they saw me eating there and approached me. Additionally my flyers were lying there so even when I was not sitting in the restaurant, people could get to know that I was there and that I gave healing sessions and counseling.
One of the regular customers of the restaurant had seen my flyers. She was a young woman and had much interest in spiritual things and India. So she took the flyer and moved towards the counter in order to ask there for some more details. Next to counter she saw the man whose picture was printed on the flyer – I was just done eating, too. So she approached me and asked me some questions about the healing session and whether I could help her. I said that I could try and so we fixed a time for an appointment.
She came to the session and when we talked, I got to know that she had had cysts in her ovary which had been removed by surgery. The cysts were gone but she still had pain, for example when riding a bicycle. Additionally, and this grieved her very much, doctors had said it would be difficult for her to get children. She had a boyfriend, also from Indian origin, and they would like to have a child. I gave my healing session and as she was interested in yoga, I also told her some exercises that would help her with her pain.
She left after the session but came back after a few days to tell me that the pain had reduced. She said she would like to stay in touch and of course I said I would be happy to. There are many such stories but I remember especially this one because it was the beginning of a friendship that should continue for many years.
I was actually really at the very right place to get in touch with more people. Obviously, it was people who had interest in India who liked Indian food and came to eat at the Indian restaurant. Many of them came and had healing sessions, some people even several. There was a woman who came again and again, enjoying it very much each time.
When I was in Mainz, Frankfurt was not very far and so the woman who had organized my lectures in Frankfurt also came by when I told her where I was. She came to visit me, we talked and she told me that the yoga organization where I had given lectures before, also had a center in Mainz and if I wanted to, she could inform them that I was there. I obviously agreed and this is how I got in touch with the yoga community of Mainz. I did a lecture at the center and even a pooja ceremony for their luck and success.
I was happy to see that I got to know more and more people and I really made several nice friendships in that time.
