About Us
WELCOME
Subud is an international, spiritual association of people of all nationalities, cultures and beliefs. It is not a religion and requires no study or teacher. The word "Subud" is a contraction of the Sanskrit words susila (right living), budhi (a higher power), and dharma (our connection to a higher power). Subud members regularly practice the "latihan kejiwaan", which is Indonesian for “spiritual exercise”. Every individual has their own unique experience during this practice, in which they feel connected with the power of God, or the Great Life Force. The first person who unexpectedly received this experience in 1925, was Muhammad Subuh Sumohadiwidjojo from Java. Although he grew up in a very simple way, a sequence of events enabled him to travel around the world and meet with many people who were longing for a way of worship from within. Today, Subud is established in over fifty countries and the contact can still be passed on in its original form.
