Dhamma Geha

Dhamma Geha ('the house of Dhamma') is a centre in S. N. Goenka's tradition at Penglumbaran in Susut, Bangli Regency, Bali, in rural countryside surrounded by bamboo forest and farmland. dhamma.org describes the climate there as mild to cool. Construction was completed in December 2021 and courses began in January 2022. Vipassana Indonesia's site gives 52 single rooms for students and servers, and dhamma.org says it accommodates 46 meditators in separate male and female compounds; all rooms are single, with shared bathrooms. There is a large meditation hall with landscaped walking areas, and a kitchen staffed by volunteers serves simple vegetarian food. The centre is a non-profit charity, and everyone who serves there is a volunteer who has practised Vipassana. Besides 10-day courses, the schedule as of October 2026 includes Satipatthana and 20-day courses, and 3-day and 1-day courses for old students. dhamma.org lists English as the language of instruction; its course notes add that Indonesian students are welcome, that instructions are available in most languages, and that students from abroad should speak good English to communicate with the management.
