I had my first experience with Mother Sayama in 1974. I was the only student at the International Meditation Centre in Rangoon, Burma. I was doing a self course. I had already taken courses with Robert Hover and Goenka. I was so taken by Mother Sayama. I have never met someone so powerful and able to understand me like she could. One of her students became a stream enterer in the late 70's. I will always be grateful for meeting her.
