Introduction
to Vipassana Meditation
Vipassana, which means to see things as
they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of
meditation. It was taught in India more than 2500 years ago as
a universal remedy for universal ills, an Art of Living. To those
who are not familiar with Vipassana Meditation we recommend visiting
the international Vipassana website
for an introduction.
To apply for a course
To learn Vipassana Meditation one needs
to develop one's own experience during a residential ten day
course. To apply for a course and to understand the requirements,
please read the Code of Discipline and then
find a convenient date in the Course Schedule.
Course finances
Courses are run solely on a donation
basis. There are no charges for the courses, not even to cover
the cost of food and accommodation. All expenses are met by
donations from those who have completed a course, experienced
the benefits of Vipassana, and wish to give others the same
opportunity. Neither the Teacher nor the assistant teachers
receive remuneration; they and those who organise the courses
volunteer their time.
Introductory talks and events
Experienced meditators from time to time
organise public talks and screenings of videos about Vipassana
meditation.
