Indian summer — September retreat in Somogyvámos
10–13 September 2026 — 4 days / 3 nights
Indian summer in the quiet of the Somogy hills
Early September is one of the loveliest times of year in the Somogy hills: still warm, but without the summer crowds. The retreat is held at the Rádhé Resort and Syám Meditation Centre in Somogyvámos, in quiet, green surroundings above the Krishna Valley.
Over four days, longer group meditation programmes follow one another, with plenty of rest in between. Group practice takes the rest deeper than a daily routine at home does — and as accumulated stress starts to release, most participants describe clearer thinking, a calmer mood and a much more present state of mind by the time they head home.
Accommodation is in apartments, each with towels, a kettle and a hob. Catering is three vegetarian or vegan meals a day.
Who is it for?
Primarily for people who already practise Transcendental Meditation and for practitioners of the sidhi programme — but those seriously interested in meditation are welcome too. If you have not learned the technique yet, start with a personal consultation or the TM course.
Meals and allergies
Special dietary requirements (gluten-free, lactose-free and similar) must be declared in advance and are available for a surcharge. Single occupancy is likewise available for a surcharge.
Registration
A HUF 48,000 deposit, paid by bank transfer, reserves your place; the remaining HUF 80,000 is settled on site at reception. The deposit is non-refundable but can be carried over to a later retreat. Registration and payment details are on the organiser’s page.
The retreat is run in Hungarian.
