Common questions

Which retreats and courses start in May 2027?

146 courses at 70 places: 139 Vipassana courses, 6 yoga courses and 1 meditation retreat. The first starts on 1 May: 5-day Iyengar yoga course at Himalayan Iyengar Yoga Centre, Dharamkot.

Which states have the most retreats and courses in May 2027?

Maharashtra (30), Uttar Pradesh (16), Gujarat (15), Bihar (12) and Rajasthan (10), out of 21 states.

Are there retreats and courses near Delhi, Mumbai or Bengaluru in May 2027?

Within a day's drive (about seven hours by road, our rough estimate): Delhi NCR 16, Mumbai 23, Bengaluru 5, Chennai 3, Kolkata 4, Hyderabad 5 and Pune 27. Use "Near my town" on the calendar to measure from where you live.

Can I still get a place?

When we checked in October 2026, 10 were open for applications and 134 weren't open yet. Where a centre gives the date, applications usually open about 13 weeks before the course starts. Places change daily, so check the official site.

Can I join a Vipassana course if I've never done one?

Yes, on a 10-day course: 118 courses this month are open to new students. The other 21 (Satipatthana, 3-day and longer courses) are for old students who have completed a 10-day course. Every centre listed runs its courses free of charge, on donations from past students. You apply on the centre's schedule page; a place is confirmed by the centre.
