40-Hour Meditation Teacher Training in Nepal: A Journey into Silence
Nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas, the 40-hour Meditation Teacher Training in Nepal at Himalayan Yoga Academy is a profound “Journey into Silence.” We view meditation not merely as a practice, but as the final tool and ultimate key for the entire path of Yoga. While the physical body serves as the vehicle for meditation, meditation itself is the vehicle that carries the practitioner toward Yoga or Samadhi.
In the sacred birthplace of Shakyamuni Buddha, this course of 40-Hour Meditation Teacher Training in Nepal honors the ancient tradition that there are no “types” of meditation, only diverse pathways and scientific techniques designed to train the conscious mind. Our curriculum is built on the philosophy that the modern world’s constant exposure to external stimuli often leads to a “daily life out of peace,” resulting in stress, anxiety, and somatic diseases. This training provides a sanctuary to reverse these effects by building internal energy and life force.
Students will explore a synthesis of Vedic, Buddhist, Zen, and contemporary techniques under the guidance of masters like Swami Padmasattva and Yogi Rajkumar. By integrating Nada Yoga (Sound), Vipassana (Insight), and Prana Sadhana (Breath), participants will learn to navigate the fluctuations of the mind (Vrittis) and achieve a state of Tathata—living centered in one’s true self. This training is not just a certification; it is an invitation to rediscover the “unknowable secrecy” of aliveness through the art of loving awareness

Meet Your Meditation Instructors: Swami Padmasattva & Yogi Rajkumar
Yogi Rajkumar
Raj Kumar connects to the energetic self through pranayama and meditation, using the physical body as a tool for deeper exploration. His self-practice influences his teachings, shaping a unique style. This approach sets him apart in his practice and instruction. Raj Kumar’s lineage of multiple styles of yoga, combined with an enthusiasm for Eastern philosophy, gives Raj Kumar a calming aura to be around.
In the quest for happiness, Raj Kumar decided to try the yoga path (2008), realizing very quickly that ‘Yoga provides an efficient and graceful way to navigate life by keeping you connected to the life force “Prana” and to the inner fire in any situation. Now Raj Kumar’s passion is to share the power of yoga and meditation and how it can be unleashed within us, helping us live a healthier, fuller, and more balanced life. He has been a Singing Bowl Trainer since 2018. He highly practices Nada Yoga and explores the different dimensions of Yoga through his daily practice.
