templo da boa vontade

temple with a spiral on the ground floor. you walk the black spiral to the center in a meditative way, in the center you look up to the the crystal on top of the pyramid to receive energy and then you walk the white spiral back.

We visited for events, at all times, but it seems they have an ongoing religious thing... noticeable for those who like it.

No big deal, but worth a visit. This semi-religious temple belongs to the Brazilian Good-Will Legion. Many visitors take their shoes off and walk along a spiral design on the floor towards the center of the temple.Located next to the big Brasilia cemetery. Can be easily reached by metro plus a few blocks walk.

Dear KanchM, we are glad you like the Temple of Good Will. This place is an ecumenical monument, and that is why everyone can feel comfortable to come in.It is really a pity that you didn't have the chance to try the Spiral. But we have good news: we are open everyday, and next time you come to Brazil it will be a pleasure to welcome you back here. =)

Quite strange since it mixes influences from Egyptians, Christianity, crystals, energy, and on and on... the architecture is ok and it is fun as an afternoon adventure to walk around the spiral and receive the "diamond energy".

It is a wonderful place to meditate. On saturdays they have church choir with keyboards. Everyday there is a library, art exibition, sculptures, paintings, and an ancient small egypt museum. You can also do some transcendent ritual with the enormous crystal on the roof of the church. You can park for free and also there is a self service restaurant. They can also provide a room for conferences with very interesting events. If you want to buy crystals or gifts , they have a small shopping.

Very interesting to visit. It has quite a mix of cultural influences, and is calming as advertised. The grouping of people considered important to the world was quite interesting. They also had a Brazilian ceramics exhibit there when I visited. I never really figured out what the goal of the place was.

We took the train and walked the few blocks but it was a bit difficult to locate as there are not a lot of signs, just look for the grass with a pyramid just beyond the hospital sector. It was so welcoming we were invited straight in to the temple where you are encouraged to walk the black then white path in quiet meditation. It was a very peaceful thing to do I just wished that I had toured the adjacent building first as it gives more of the history of the temple and explains some of the aspects; such as the crystal projecting a coloured light onto the steel work at the end of the walk depending on the sunlight reflecting through it at the time of day. If you would like more time for reflection there is also a room underneath that has been fitted out in comfy chairs in an egyptian style for 2 Real you can take as long as you wish in quiet contemplation and was the only place where a fee is charged.

The temple exudes a vibe of good will and spirituality. All faiths and beliefs are respected and welcomed. Inside the temple which is below a seven sided pyramid like structure that holds a giant 21kg pure crystal, you can walk a spiral path of granite and reflect on your life. The temple is located a bit further away from the government buildings and architectural monuments, but it is worth the trip.

The picture is wrong. The picture shown when I wrote the review is of the Cathedral (also worth visiting). At the Legião Temple they show the works of the founder of the Legião da Boa Vontade and a bit of their work on charity programs. Next to the temple there is a library and an auditorium. In the temple There are rooms for meditation and prayer. The main attraction is a spiral on he floor where you walk in direction to the center of the pyramid shaped building where, on the ceiling there is a 20-something kg pure crystal stone.

This is a place that people say is for meditation but actually you are not that encouraged to spend a long time there, since you have to walk the path that leads to the crystal and move on.

Anybody interested in triangular coned buildings should have a look at this (it is located at the rear of the main private hospital center at the south end of W3, and a stone´s throw from the huge city cemetery. Plenty of informatiion about the founder of this religious 'sect' at the main entrance. Slightly weird, etherial atmosphere on the inside, but impresses nevertheless. Certainly go if you have run out of other things to do and see in Brasilia.

The entrance leads to the main room, the pyramid of spiral floor under the largest pure crystal rock, welcoming the visitor to a recharging barefoot walk. Next room is an art gallery and right after a mineral water fountain. There's a library, a memorial for the founder of LBV (LGW), Mr. Paiva Netto, and more. A beautiful place for meditation and contemplation.

Templo da Boa Vontade (TBV), também conhecido como templo da Paz, foi fundado em 2101001989, é um lugar lindo, que traz muita paz interior, além de ser uma das Sete Maravilhas de Brasilia... vale a pena conhecer!!!

É um local de oração e reflexão, belíssimo! Programe-se para uma visita com calma. Sem pressa. A decepção é a parte dos artefatos egipcios.
