* These courses are open to old students who have completed
at least one 10-day course.
** Satipatthana Sutta courses have the same timetable and discipline
as 10-day courses. The difference is that in the taped evening
discourses Goenkaji examines the Satipatthana Sutta. This is the
principal text in which the Buddha systematically explained the
technique of Vipassana. These courses are open to serious old students
who have completed at least three 10-day courses, have not been
practising any other meditation techniques since their last 10-day
course, have been practising this technique of Vipassana for at
least one year, and who are trying to maintain the Five Precepts
in their daily lives
After you have read the Code
of Discipline for Vipassana Meditation Courses, you can contact
a center and apply for a course.
