Description

Embark on a 7-day Buddhist monastery retreat in Kathmandu. Immerse yourself in the teachings of Buddhism and the practice of meditation.
Embark on a one-week Buddhist monastery retreat in Kathmandu for a unique opportunity for spiritual rejuvenation in the tranquil setting of the Himalayas. Immerse yourself in Buddhist teachings and practices, learning meditation techniques, mindfulness, and insight into the nature of the mind.

Begin your mornings with silent meditation sessions, followed by teachings from resident monks or nuns on topics such as compassion, non-attachment, and mental clarity. Follow a structured schedule, which includes meditation, Dharma talks, chanting, and personal reflection time.

The serene environment of Kathmandu's monasteries, set against the backdrop of lush greenery and mountain views, provides the perfect atmosphere for contemplation and introspection. Disconnect from daily distractions and connect with inner peace and mindfulness.

Enjoy meals, often vegetarian, served in silence, and maintain noble silence during certain parts of the day to enhance your meditative practice. This retreat is ideal for both beginners and experienced meditators looking to deepen their practice.

By the end of the week, leave with a sense of inner calm, greater self-awareness, and tools to continue your mindfulness journey beyond the monastery.
