Subud (pronounced ) is an international, interfaith spiritual movement that began in Indonesia in the 1920s, founded by Muhammad Subuh Sumohadiwidjojo (1901–1987).

There are now Subud groups in over 70 countries, with a worldwide membership of about 10,000. In the late 1950s, British academic John G. Bennett came under Pak Subuh's influence and funded his career, believing Pak Subuh to be a messiah. [2] By 1960, once interest in Subud had faded, Bennett had left Subud and became a Catholic. [2]
About twice a week, Subud members go to a local center to participate in a group latihan, men and women separately. [5] The experience takes place in a room or a hall with open space. After a period of sitting quietly, a ' helper ' typically asks the members to stand and relax, and then announces the start of the exercise.
