| Satyananda Yoga Centre - Szólád |
Our plan
Satyananda Yoga Foundation Hungary intends to build the first residential Satyananda Yoga centre in Szólád, Somogy County, a wonderful green land in a beautiful environment. The Foundation has purchased ten hectares of land, developed construction plans and acquired all the permits necessary for the centre to be built in three separate phases. There will be accommodation, kitchen, dining room and yoga room able to receive 90 people, so we can offer yoga courses and spiritual gatherings in a calm, quiet and natural environment. The aim also envisages a yogic community in and around the centre. The location and the easy accessibility of the area, combined with the renowned hospitality, openness and warm-heartedness of the hosting Hungarians, will all contribute to the fulfillment of this plan. As part of the complex an organic farm will be developed too.
Satyananda Yoga does not postulate any political or religious beliefs. It provides everybody, regardless of social background, with tools for health, peace of mind and an inspired vision for their lives.
In the first phase a residential building will be established which can host and serve 30-40 people.
Where is Szólád?
Szólád is a small village of 600 people, 4 km south of Lake Balaton, the largest lake in Europe. A new M7 motorway means Szólád can be accessed within 90 minutes from Budapest 120kms away, and 30 minutes from Balaton Airport.
Why is a centre like this needed?
The way we are living our lives is very fast, full of stress and tensions, but we would like to stay healthy and live in harmony. The ancient practices of yoga have flourished through all trials and proven effective even in modern, technologically advanced societies. We teach the simple and easy to learn methods of Satyananda Yoga, which helps everyone to reach their goals. We show how to keep the joints and digestive system in proper condition, how to handle stress and how to relax consciously. We teach techniques that people of today have a great need for, because they are essential for living a complete life. In the ashram one can learn and practice proper nutrition, simple diet and conscious lifestyle. This centre will be unique in Hungary because it focuses on applying theoretical knowledge, meaning it gives you real, experienced knowledge.
May I also participate in establishing the centre?
Yes, we are waiting for you, because we are counting on your help as well. It is an important aspect in a sponsorship or charity that we give "well". We have to guide helping energies so that they may foster positive change, advancement and upliftment. At the Foundation, we know from experience that there are a lot of people willing to give, but they are not sure how and to whom. If you would like to help and be part of creating a lasting, useful project, this is the right opportunity for you. Establishing the Satyananda yoga centre of Szólád meets all aspects of charity. You can help a lot of people through the Foundation and you can do a lot to help so that you and the people around you become healthy, balanced, happy and more conscious.
