Vipassana means seeing things as they really are. It is a practical method
of self-awareness that makes it possible to face the tensions and problems of
daily life in a calm and balanced way. This path of mental purification is
unique in its simplicity, lack of dogma and, above all, its results. A 10-day
residential course of instruction is an opportunity to learn this technique and
experience the benefits of a period of intensive meditation.
Vipassana
meditation can be practiced by anyone. There are no charges for the courses,
not even to cover the cost of food and accommodation. Course expenses are
supported entirely by voluntary donations. Neither the assistant teachers of
S.N. Goenka who conduct the courses, nor the organizers, receive any
renumeration for their services; they and those who serve the courses volunteer
their time. Thus Vipassana is offered with purity of purpose, free from
commercialization.
