Shoshin – Der Geist des Anfangs
Anja Landgraf and Jan-Christoph Daniel invite you to dive deep into the wisdom of Asia.
After successful pilot events in Hamburg and Düsseldorf, the two will take their talks on a tour across Germany in 2026, bringing their stories, images, and experiences live to the stage. The evenings are open to everyone who wants to be inspired.
In the talk, Anja and Jan take you across Japan, to Seoul, the capital of South Korea, to their former home of Singapore, to India, and finally to the most isolated kingdom in the world – Bhutan.
In every country, Anja and Jan savored the stillness of nature. They made pilgrimages to spiritual places, visiting sacred temples, shrines, and pagodas.
Explored breathtaking cities.
Experienced stark contrasts and contradictions.
Learned about the soul of things, the privilege of travel, and about health and longevity.
And … everywhere they went, they encountered inspiring people.
It’s not just about travel, but about the learning journey of life:
What can we learn when we discover the ‘spirit of beginnings’?
How can we integrate health and longevity into everyday life?
What can we learn from Asia and its philosophies about the soul of things, contrasts, and artificial intelligence?
Look forward to insights into fascinating cultures and their impact on our daily lives.
You’ll learn how you can benefit from the wisdom of Asia in both your personal and professional life.
You’ll be inspired to find your own path to inner balance and greater harmony.
Make pilgrimages to spiritual places. Visit sacred temples, shrines, and pagodas. Explore breathtaking cities. Experience stark contrasts and contradictions. Learn about the soul of things, the privilege of travel, and about health and longevity. And meet inspiring people.
Lose yourself on one of Japan’s oldest pilgrimage routes. The Kumano Kodō is the spiritual twin of the Camino de Santiago.
We’ll take you along the Kii-ji Trail, where every step becomes a meditation. Discover what it means to walk with an open mind. And to find not just a destination, but yourself.
Join us in the ‘Robot City’, where a robot becomes a museum guide and tradition meets digital creativity. Experience how Seoul combines innovation and mindfulness in a hyperconnected world.
Singapore is a man-made ‘Blue Zone’. A place where urban planning becomes an art of living.
India teaches us to let go of the plan and embrace life in all its fullness.
Amid noise and color, a deep serenity unfolds. Curious, pragmatic, flexible.
We show how the spirit of beginnings is lived there every day. In places where improvisation becomes a way of life.
Bhutan measures prosperity not in money, but in happiness. The country between sky and earth absorbs more CO₂ than it emits. It combines spirituality with responsibility.
We show you how Shoshin takes shape here. In stillness, and in an attitude that heals the planet.
