    Course location

    Be aware, that our courses are organised not in Budapest (the capital of Hungary), but on the countryside.

    Course program

    The 10 day course 'flat' means a start on „day Zero” with on site registration, orientation talk and a light dinner. After taking their places in the meditation hall and some formalities students receive first meditation instructions the help of which they start working the next morning on Day 1. The course will be conducted by duly assigned Teacher(s). Meditation instructions will be heard in English by S. N. Goenka followed by the Hungarian version. New students not having English as mother tongue are requested to make sure they will understand the instructions in English as well as they will be able to consult the Teacher in English regarding the technique. Further they may need to have the positive answer from us on the availability of the evening discourses of Goenkaji in their native language. The course will be completed around 6:30 am on „Day 11”.
