Tranquility and Insight, Meditation Course

Tranquility and Insight
A month long introduction to meditation program
Our foundational course, Tranquility and Insight, which has been setting the standard for meditation training in our country and beyond for 25 years, has now been expanded into a comprehensive program that includes:
- Weekend Meditation Course with teacher Žarko Andričević, introducing the theoretical foundations and the methods and practices of Chan meditation.
- Online Group Meditations on Wednesdays, designed to help you establish continuity in your personal practice and prepare you for:
- A Meditation Day with teacher Karmen Mihalinec, held within a month of completing the workshop, offering an introduction to the methods and spirit of extended Chan meditation.
This comprehensive program was developed in response to feedback from our participants, who often found it challenging to establish a regular practice after completing the course. We are now here to support you not just during the course, but also as you take your first steps afterward.
With joyful perseverance, which is essential for cultivating the mind, you will have the opportunity not only to learn about Chan meditation but also to integrate its practice into your daily life.
The course is suitable for everyone, from beginners who want to learn the basics of meditation to those who already practice but wish to receive deeper and more precise guidance.
Program Format:
The program is offered in two formats:
- In-Person Retreat: Held in the beautiful surroundings of the Chan Center on Hartovski Vrh – this option is highly recommended for a full immersive experience!
- Online via Zoom: If you choose this option, please note that participation in real-time with your camera turned on is essential.
Embark on this unique journey of inner exploration and growth! Whether you’re a beginner or already have experience, this is an opportunity to deepen your understanding and practice of meditation in the spirit of Chan.
