We begin each meeting with presence, stillness, meditation—a portal to what you are—your true nature—already and always awake—the still alive presence behind all sense perceptions. The wisdom of who you are naturally dissolves any sense of separation. When this wisdom is not clear, all other pursuits are temporary placebos that calm the symptoms of doubt, worry, wanting and emotional pain. Temporary resolves recycle again and again.
Resolving the inquiry, “Who or what am I?”—Not as a description of accomplishments and accumulations, but as a direct knowing—is the key to happiness, peace and deep rest. Our part is to show up without a personal agenda and let life live us without resistance.
Beneath every life circumstance or story of separation is the direct experience of non-separation, oneness. These meetings—often called “Satsang” which translates as “to join together in Truth”—are an invitation to discover and savor the depth of who you are.
Your grief for what you've lost lifts like a mirror
Up to where you're bravely working.
Expecting the worst, you look, and instead,
Here's the joyful face you've been longing to see.
Your hand opens and closes, and opens and closes.
If it were always a fist or always stretched open
You would be paralyzed.
Your deepest presence
Is in every small contraction and expansion,
The two as beautifully balanced and coordinated
As bird wings.
~ Rumi

Satsang with Prajna and Larry Melton
Our next meeting will be posted soon
This is a time to relax all conceptual knowledge of enlightenment, to look within and directly experience your true essence. The greatest barrier to spiritual awakening is the belief that it is difficult and requires struggle. Without effort our natural state is always and already here. All are welcome to sit with us and enjoy this timeless reality.
Awakening Women’s Journey
We explore the emergence of spiritual awakening together as a group of unique women with unique journey’s. Our collective strength, challenge, beauty, and love assist the unfoldment of our budding or hidden potential. This journey is a call to bring forth your true self; unpack any unresolved issues that get in the way of your deepest integrity; and to cultivate stillness amidst all aspects of life. Together we create a safe spacious environment for discovery, clarity and creative expression. Our collective focus and intention supports your eternal nature—ever present—unbroken, never acquired, attained or lost—what we are.
This journey usually takes place over a six-month period meeting twice a month. Prajna is not offering a women’s journey this year. She is taking this time to focus on her teenagers and to complete a book she has been working on. She will miss this and states, “I can not imagine being away from these journey’s for long. They are the most challenging, healing, inspiring and collaborative forms of growth work I have ever participated in.”

“Prajna’s love of Truth is exquisite and is an invitation for all those that love Truth.”
~ Isaac Shapiro and Mieke Schutt, International Satsang Teachers
What is “Satsang”?
“Dear Prajna, Thank you for satsang. I am more able to be still, and it is changing my life. I have made many changes since my husband died. I am sorting out my 63-year marriage slowly, and still learning. It is wonderful that so many young women have found you. I admire your work and what you do in spite of the trials that your special children have given you.”
~ Magdalene Jaeckel Grass Valley, CA
“Prajna’s radiance of light and life is well grounded in the here and now. I value her as a woman, teacher, and friend.”
~ Maya Hill, Sculptor Nevada City, CA
“The whole experience of the women’s embodiment journey was safe with encouragement (as in, everything is welcome) and support for our hearts to be open and our innate wisdom to emerge. I touched a deep longing to do public speaking. I joined Toastmasters and won a contest, I’m on to the next level and more... It was my experience with the women's group that propelled me to go forward, after years of wanting to, I am.”
~ Jinnae Anderson, Editor Morgan Hill, CA
“I couldn’t put your writings down. I read it three times. You give expression to aspects of spiritual awakening that I’ve yearned to hear about from male teachers. I’ve passed it on to all of my women friends. We can’t wait to read the whole book.”
~ Amanda Lane, Sebastopol, CA
