Theun Mares

The Temple of Peace

Théun has made himself available for teaching the public at large since March 2000. This teaching took the form of residential retreats run twice a year until September 2007, when Théun made the decision to stop running retreats for two reasons. The first reason was to have the time in which to develop Toltec Legacy, a unique interactive internet teaching facility that enables him to reach far more people than he could through the medium of the retreats; and the second reason was to found a centre, called The Temple of Peace, where Théun is available for consultation on an on-going basis to anyone wishing to seek out his guidance.

Toltec Legacy was launched in February 2009, and is open to anyone wishing to subscribe to it for the purpose of becoming an apprentice of Théun. The Temple of Peace officially opened its doors to the public in March 2009.

The Temple of Peace is open to anyone who wishes to seek Théun’s personal guidance, irrespective of race, culture or creed. Visiting the temple is not subject to having to meet any specific personal criteria, and neither is there a time limit or fixed charge for visits. Visitors will, however, be expected to make a donation to The Temple of Peace in return for any guidance given during their visits.

The Temple of Peace is open for visits during the following dates in 2009:

1st. Feb. 2009 – 8th. Apr. 2009

15th. Apr. 2009 – 15th. Jun. 2009

15th. Jul. 2009 – 15th. Sep. 2009

22nd. Sep. 2009 – 22nd. Nov. 2009
The Temple of Peace is in Slovakia, Central Europe, and is currently housed at Firdale Brook, the home of Théun and his group of personal apprentices, situated in the tiny picturesque village of Tajov, surrounded by beautiful tranquil forests and mountains. The nearest town to Tajov is Banska Bystrica, easily accessible from Bratislava, Vienna, Budapest and Prague.

If you would like to visit The Temple of Peace please write to stating that you would like to visit, giving the dates of your intended visit, how many people will be visiting, and what the primary purpose of your visit entails.

The Temple of Peace does not provide residential facilities for visitors.  However, nearby accommodation with meals can be arranged upon request, and transport from Banska Bystrica can also be arranged, upon request.
