    UPDATES

    The retreat with Hannes Huber has just ended. It was the third retreat since the center opened at the end of March. And this one, like the previous ones, led by Andrea Huber and Gautam Verma, took place with full participation and satisfaction of both teachers and meditators.

    There are still places left for the retreat lead by Ayya Virañani from 7 to 28 May 2025, a unique opportunity to participate in a Mettā retreat of this duration with a so experienced and compassionate teacher. There are also still places left for the retreat for Bhante Gavesi's retreat from 13 to 28 June 2025, who for the second year has chosen our centre for one of his retreats in Europe. It’s now possible to register for only 10 days retreat.

    Vesak - Sunday 4 May from 9pm to 10pm (CET, italian time) Bhante Bodhidhamma will lead the online celebration of the birth, life and Parinibbana of the Buddha, together with the UK Sangha connected to his meditation centre, Satipanya, in Wales (https://www.satipanya.org.uk). This year's gathering will focus on the theme: "The Teaching Skills of the Buddha". The event will include a talk, sitting meditation, taking Refuges and Precepts, and Metta practice.
