23.01.2022 'There are no short cuts to happiness, no quick fixes or magic beans this is made abundantly clear from the get-go. But the course’s deliberate intensity is enough to give you the faintest glimpse of the possible rewards should you continue to practise.' - Hugh Rose writes about his experience on a 10-Day Vipassana meditation course.

16.01.2022 #Vipassana #Meditation #SNGoenka Q: Can pregnant women attend courses? Are there any special arrangements or instructions for them? SNG- Pregnant womenmay certa...inly attend, and many women come specifically during pregnancy to take advantage of the opportunity to work deeply and in silence during this special time. We ask pregnant women to ensure they are confident that their pregnancy is stable before applying. We provide the extra food they need and ask them to work in a relaxed way. See more

10.01.2022 #Vipassana #Meditation #SNGoenka Q: How many hours a daywill I be meditating? SNG- The day begins at 4:00 a.m. with a wakeup bell and continues until 9:00 p.m. ...There are about ten hours of meditation throughout the day, interspersed with regular breaks and rest periods. Every evening at 7:00 p.m. there is a videotaped lecture by the Teacher, S.N. Goenka, which provides a context for meditators to understand their experience of the day. This schedule has proved workable and beneficial for hundreds of thousands of people for decades. See more

07.01.2022 Here is some information about some upcoming children’s meditation courses that will be held in 2017. The link to the website for more information and to register is www.children.dhamma.org The course is held over 1 day from 9am until 4pm and is open to children between the ages of 8 and 12 or teenagers between 13 and 16. The course has a structured format which is made up of short periods of meditation instruction, meditation, facilitated play, question and answer time and s...hared meal breaks and discussions. The technique that is taught is Anapana (concentration on the breath). Children report feeling greater compassion and calm and having improved concentration while being able to manage their anxiety better. The course is offered free of charge made possible by donations from past participants and facilitated by volunteers (with WWC check). At the end of the course families usually feel motivated to give a donation so that other children can be offered the course as well. We recommend looking at the videos together with your child particularly ‘the compass’, ‘seeds of awareness’ and ‘time to breathe’. These courses are held all over the world although some courses are residential 3 day courses. The first course to be held on that 11th of February at Spearwood alternative primary school is already listed on the website under courses and can be applied for online. The consecutive dates are: April 30th, July 23rd and October 15th and will be listed shortly. Please pass this information on to any families that you think may be interested. Course registration should be done at https://www.dhamma.org/en/schedules/schpadipa

02.01.2022 The peace and quiet of Dhamma Bhumi Vipassana Meditation Centre in the Blue Mountains could be compromised if a proposed helicopter and joy flight tourism venture in the area goes ahead. If you would like to show your support for the Centre and community, please sign this petition.

01.01.2022 Our principal Vipassana meditation Teacher, S.N. Goenka, passed away 6 years ago on September 29, 2013. His life's mission of spreading the teachings of pure Dh...amma was permeated by a deep sense of gratitude to all those who had enabled him to receive these teachings. It was driven by a volition to repay this debt of gratitude by enabling others to receive these teachings in their pure form. For this anniversary of Goenkaji's passing, let us remember and be inspired by him: 'To those who came before, let us feel gratitude. And to those still waiting for the Dhamma, let us develop metta, the wish to serve without expecting anything in return.'
