At the weekend festival, you will experience a rich program filled with group sessions, meditations, and both indoor and outdoor activities that will give you a taste of what Dharma Mountain has to offer. In the meditations and group sessions, you will be supported in letting go of tension, awakening your life energy, opening your heart, and connecting with joy and inner peace. You’ll get to take part in forest bathing, yoga, Tai Chi, and Vipassana meditation – and with the support of the quiet nature and peaceful atmosphere, you may discover how relaxation and meditation can arise naturally. Come stay in a cabin or a tent, enjoy meals from our kitchen, and experience the summer magic in the beautiful nature surrounding Dharma Mountain!

Satyaa and Pari – Music for the Heart
Satyaa and Pari will perform a live concert on Saturday evening, and on Sunday morning, they will invite us to mantra singing in our Forest Temple.
Through their music, Satyaa and Pari invite us to open our hearts and connect with the universal source of love. Their concerts are a unique experience of deep presence, singing, and dancing – a celebration of life in its purest form.
If you are not able to join us for the whole weekend, you are still very welcome to attend just the concert on Saturday, June 28 at 7:00 PM.

Playful
For små og store blir det aktiviteter ute i naturen og inne, som kanopadling, steinmaling og andre kreative aktiviter.
Permaculture
Dharma Mountain er en LAND-spire, som betyr et sted som viser permakultur i praksis. I hagen vår kan du se mange prosjekter etter permakultur-prinsippene. Bli med på en liten workshop, hvor du får vite mer om hva permakultur er, hvordan du gjennom meditasjon kan få et nærmere forhold til naturen og skape noe kreativt i samarbeid med naturen og hverandre. Det blir også vandring i naturen med Jan Bang.
Food
Our wonderful kitchen serves delicious vegetarian food. There will also be a café offering sweet and savory treats.

Presence and Love for 25 Years
This year, Dharma Mountain celebrates its 25th anniversary, and we’re excited to mark this special occasion with you during the festival weekend. Since its beginning in 2000, Dharma Mountain has hosted countless groups and retreats focused on meditation, mindfulness, self-discovery, and creativity. It is a center where anyone wishing to get to know themselves better can come to find peace, presence, and acceptance. Everyone who works here has meditation as a part of their daily life, and both meditation and love are deeply woven into the atmosphere.

Welcome to Dharma Mountain!
