“Life finds its purpose and fulfillment in the expansion of happiness”
- Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
celebrating life
The Pankajā Center is located in a turn-of-the-century villa in Hietzing, surrounded by old trees. It is a community place for people from all walks of life and all age groups: celebrating and growing through shared experiences.
Life is a harmonious dance of calm and dynamism, of taking in, giving and integrating. In this way we are in the flow, feeling creative and vital without exhausting ourselves.
We start all activities with silence, set something in motion and then bring it back into silence.
In the new series CELEBRATING LIFE, we delve into an exciting topic in a compact three hours and go into practical experience: impulses for happiness for daily life. From simple to subject-specific, there is a suitable dimension for everyone. We take time for personal questions and answers, and guided deep relaxation. This way we go back out into life full of energy.
The Prāna community of over 100 lovely people was founded on the inspiration of Pankajā’s teacher DrSatji: Praanaa Community. They exchange ideas on healing topics in a relaxed way in the Whatsapp group and meet live and via zoom to make music (Kirtan), chat, cook, meditate, Satsang and visit DrSatji, Saphira and other guests. New members welcome.
“The group is getting stronger by the square”

You will take away things you didn’t realise you needed or were looking for
It’s taken me a long time to write any feedback to Pankajā’s Ayurveda Centre and her work because the feelings i have are difficult to do justice to in words. Visiting Pankajā is like being bathed in a warm, glowing rose-gold light, that you carry with you when you leave. You will take away things you didn’t realise you needed or were looking for. Perhaps the best review i could give can be seen in my face if you look at the Marma Massage photos on her website. Thankyou Pankajā, for being you and for sharing that with the world.

I have never seen so clearly in my life as this weekend
If I had to sum up the Golden Circle weekend in one sentence, it would be: I have never seen so clearly in my life as I did this weekend. So much was allowed to dissolve, so much suddenly made sense, I suddenly had access to so much (physically and emotionally) again and I have been able to understand and appreciate so much that I didn't like about myself since then. If I have to give feedback on the framework of the Golden Circle, then I can only say Dr. Satji is a gift, you are a gift and Detti is also a gift, as are the two chefs Toni and Lisa. The combination of all of you was such a well-rounded, heartwarming, cuddly thing. I can't even begin to put Dr. Satji into words, I can only "feel" him (I hope that doesn't sound stupid). Your incredible intuition to do and say and advise the right thing at exactly the right time is incredible to me and simply beautiful. And Detti is such a kindhearted person, she floated around us like a fairy and was always there "before". The cooks and the food were simply nourishing and full of love. The Golden Circle was EXACTLY right, at least for me. I was never alone but had enough space to integrate. You gave me the space to be/become completely myself, what a rare gift that I will never forget. THANK YOU all again from the bottom of my heart!
