All courses are run solely on a donation basis. All expenses are met by donations from those who, having completed a course and experienced the benefits of Vipassana, wish to give others the same opportunity. Neither the Teacher nor the assistant teachers receive remuneration; they and those who serve the courses volunteer their time. Thus Vipassana is offered free from commercialisation.
Old students are those who have completed a 10-day Vipassana Meditation course with S.N. Goenka or his Assistant Teachers.
Old students have the opportunity to provide Dhamma Service at the courses
listed above.

are courses which are taught in two languages. All students will hear daily
meditation instructions in both languages. The evening discourses will be
heard separately.

10-day courses
are an introductory course to Vipassana Meditation where the technique is
taught step-by-step each day.
The courses begin after a 2-4 pm registration period and
orientation, followed by 10 full days of meditation, and
end the morning of the 11th day by 7:30am.

Old Student short courses
(1-3 days) are for any student who has completed the 10-day course with
S.N. Goenka and his assistant teachers. All old students are welcome to
apply to attend these courses, including those where it has been some
time since their last course.

Satipatthana Sutta courses
have the same timetable and discipline as 10-day course. The
difference is that in the taped evening discourses the
Satipatthana Sutta is carefully examined. This is the
principal text in which the technique of Vipassana is
systematically explained. 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
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.
