Rigorous in a way I didn't expect — this is a genuine teacher training, not a certificate mill.

Overview
A 28-day residential programme training participants to teach seated meditation in the ashram's Vedantic tradition.

Who This Is For
Experienced meditators (minimum 2 years personal practice) considering teaching, not complete beginners.
What's Included
- Daily philosophy lectures
- Practicum teaching sessions
- Completion certificate
- Full board
- Accommodation upgrade beyond standard ashram room
