Join a transformative journey with Bodhidham Yoga and Spiritual Retreat Ashram in the serene city of Pokhara, Nepal. Our Teaching of Buddha with Meditation and Silence Retreat is designed for sincere spiritual seekers who wish to explore the liberating wisdom of the Buddha through direct study, intensive meditation practice, and the transformative power of noble silence. Set in Nepal — the sacred birthplace of Lord Buddha — this retreat offers an authentic encounter with the path to inner freedom.
The 6 Nights 7 Days Teaching of Buddha with Meditation and Silence Retreat at Bodhidham Yoga and Spiritual Retreat Ashram offers a rare and immersive encounter with the core teachings of the Buddha. Over seven days, participants are guided through the foundational pillars of Buddhist wisdom — the Four Noble Truths, the Noble Eightfold Path, the Three Marks of Existence, and the practice of loving-kindness — while developing a genuine meditation practice rooted in these teachings.
Central to this retreat is the practice of noble silence. As days progress, participants gradually enter and deepen into complete silence, creating the inner conditions for the teachings to move from intellectual understanding into direct experience. Silence is not a restriction — it is a powerful tool that allows the mind to settle, emotions to process naturally, and insight to arise of its own accord.
The daily rhythm balances Dharma talks, sitting meditation, walking meditation, and mindful movement. Guidance is provided by experienced teachers who draw from authentic Buddhist lineages. Personal interviews with the teacher are available to support each participant’s individual journey.
This retreat is held in Nepal, the very land where Siddhartha Gautama was born and where Buddhist practice has been lived continuously for centuries. The environment of Bodhidham — surrounded by the Himalayas and the sacred energy of this land — provides a uniquely supportive container for this kind of inner work.
