TEMPLE MEDITATION
Evenings | 7–9 pm | Small groups of up to 5 people
Learn meditation in a calm and intimate setting with Vas, an experienced meditation teacher, at Pelinggih Sakti Temple — a simple and beautiful temple nestled in the jungle beside the river.
Sessions are kept small, with a maximum of five people, allowing Vas to provide personal guidance while sharing the experience with a small group.
The experience
Before entering the temple for your first visit, you will take part in a traditional seven-flower water purification ritual with blessed coconut.
The purification provides a moment to leave the distractions of everyday life behind and prepare yourself for meditation.
Inside the temple, Vas will guide you through a simple yet powerful meditation practice. The method is easy to learn, does not require a particular belief system and can be continued independently at home.
The practice focuses on developing calm awareness, presence and a deeper understanding of yourself.
Connecting with nature
Nature is an important part of the RANDIM BALI meditation experience.
Following the meditation, Vas guides the group through a gentle practice of connecting with the natural surroundings, encouraging awareness of the environment and your own inner state.
You will also learn simple heart-focused breathing exercises that can be incorporated into your everyday meditation practice.

Testimonials
'Vas' knowledge about meditation is profound and thorough. He inspires a calm and relaxing atmosphere in which to practice with clear and considered instructions. When I have asked questions or sought clarification I have always felt understood and heard. Ultimately it is Vas’ extensive knowledge of the spiritual path and his commitment to focus only on the truth that I find most impressive. I have no hesitation to recommend Vas to anyone seeking peace in themselves, spiritual knowledge, or both.

'My experience with RANDIM Bali Meditation helped me to see the world with a different view and connect more to nature. It also helped me to trust myself in my heart and to keep my faith strong.
I can honestly say if you're looking to find yourself, connect to your inner wisdom, have a Spiritual adventure; then this is the place to come to.'

I have known Vas for five years. I've received healing and instruction in meditation from him, as well as translation and trekking with him in Indonesia. In all of these contexts, he consistently shows a depth of compassion, integrity, insight and wisdom I've rarely experienced elsewhere. He also has a talent for adapting his communication and methods in order for people to receive the greatest understanding and benefit from his healing and teaching. I've experienced this firsthand on many occasions and witnessed others' experiences. I will be forever grateful for his kindness.

I've know Vas for almost 4 years and in that time I've been fortunate enough to have shared many spiritual teachings, meditation training and healing with him both in Australia and Bali. Vas is exceptional at explaining spiritual concepts in an easy to understand and simple way, making sure you understand and sharing stories to help clarify when required. He is a compassionate listener and at times it can seem that he knows you better than you know yourself. Throughout the past 4 years he helped me to overcome a dysfunctional relationship and broken heart and to process the grief of my father's passing. Vas has taught me heart breathing meditation at Pelinggih Sakti, a heart opening experience I will never forget, and a practice that I use often. Vas also escorted me personally to Java for ritual to trek Gunung Arjuna and was by my side the whole time supporting me and encouraging me when the climb was difficult. Most recently Vas did a healing with my son who had been experiencing a lot of stomach problems that the doctors couldn't explain or help him with. After just one healing the stomach trouble has stopped and he is happy and feeling healthy again.
I have been welcomed into Vas and Melati's home like I was one of the family and I look forward to my next trip to Bali and hope to do the Campuhan River Ritual with him to purify, reset and connect with nature after too long in the rat-race. I highly recommend to get in touch with Vas at Randim Bali if you are looking for answers spiritually or in need of healing.
