Embark on a transformative 1-month Buddhist monastery retreat in Lumbini, the sacred birthplace of Lord Buddha. Set in the tranquil surroundings of ancient monasteries, this immersive experience begins with a warm welcome and orientation by resident monks. Each day starts with early morning meditation at dawn, followed by guided sessions in mindfulness, walking meditation, and Buddhist teachings (Dhamma talks). You will follow a simple monastic routine—observing noble silence during parts of the day, enjoying vegetarian meals, participating in daily chores, and attending evening chanting or reflections.
Participants will also explore key pilgrimage sites in Lumbini, including the Maya Devi Temple, the Ashokan Pillar, and the monastic zone representing global Buddhist traditions. The serene environment, disciplined schedule, and supportive community offer a deep spiritual reset and a chance to reconnect with yourself. This retreat is open to beginners and experienced meditators alike, with instructions in English and local languages. Come with an open heart, and leave with inner peace.
