Thirty to forty kilometers south of central Bengaluru, Pyramid Valley International sits in a quiet green basin off Kanakapura Road. The 28-acre campus is built around the Maitreya Buddha Pyramid, a purpose-built meditation hall designed to concentrate stillness and support long, silent sits. The center runs residential programs, weekend retreats, and day-visit schedules oriented around breath meditation and practical spiritual education.

What is Pyramid Valley

Pyramid Valley is a modern Indian meditation campus anchored by a very large geometric meditation hall. The official site presents it as a serene place for workshops, training, and deep personal practice, with on-site accommodation and a year-round calendar.

The campus is part of the Pyramid Spiritual Societies Movement (PSSM), founded by Brahmarshi Patriji in 1990 to spread meditation and vegetarian living in a secular, non-sectarian way. PSSM’s guiding principles place simple, natural-breath meditation (Anapanasati) at the center of practice. 

The main hall is a steel-and-stone pyramid aligned on a true north–south axis, built to the “golden” slope angle seen in the Great Pyramid of Giza. Published specs consistently describe a base of 160 ft × 160 ft and a height of about 100–104 ft, with an inner chamber at one-third the height and an overall capacity cited around 5,000 meditators. These figures appear across official and tourism sources; confirm on arrival for updates. (1)

Pyramid Valley’s method is Anapanasati: sit comfortably, close the eyes, and keep gentle attention on the natural breath. No mantra or visualization is required, and instruction materials are available on the official site. 

The center runs one-day immersions, weekend programs, and multi-day residential workshops mixing long silent sits with talks and Q&A. Program and accommodation pages list upcoming dates, formats, and contact details for booking. This makes the venue suitable for beginners seeking a structured reset as well as experienced meditators wanting extended silent time. 

Beyond the main pyramid you will find training rooms, vegetarian dining, library and book space, landscaped walking paths with marked “energy spots,” a gaushala, and a range of accommodations from basic to “luxury rooms.” 

Practical planning

Location and access:
Pyramid Valley International
Kebbedoddi Village, Harohalli Hobli, Kanakapura Taluk, Ramanagara District, Karnataka 562112.
It is roughly 40 km south of Bengaluru city; the simplest approach is by taxi or self-drive. 

Visiting hours for day visitors as 9:00–18:00. If you book accommodation or a program, you’ll receive a schedule for sits and sessions beyond public hours. Always verify current timings before travel. 

Best time to go
For outdoor walking and quiet campus time, Bengaluru’s post-monsoon and winter window (approximately October to February) is most comfortable. Programs run year-round. 

A typical day on site
Morning silent sits in the main hall, breakfast, a teaching or practical session, open personal practice or nature walks, afternoon meditation blocks, and an evening session inside the pyramid. Day visitors can join appropriate sessions; residential guests follow the full schedule. 

Etiquette
Keep phones silent, dress modestly, and observe quiet zones in and around the pyramid. Vegetarian food is standard on campus. Newcomers are encouraged to arrive early, hydrate, and settle before long sits. 

Pyramid Valley exemplifies a contemporary India-first approach to meditation infrastructure: breath-centric, secular language, large-scale facilities, and proximity to a major tech city. For wellness professionals and partners, it offers strong visuals and an accessible narrative that connects traditional breath mindfulness with modern audiences.
