Vipassana Meditation Courses at Non-Center Locations

Before Meditation Centers were established in this tradition, all courses were held at temporary sites, such as campgrounds, religious retreat centers, churches and the like. Today, in regions where Centers have not yet been established by local students of Vipassana who live in the area, 10 Day meditation courses are still held at temporary course sites from time to time. Listed below by region, country, and dates are the currently scheduled courses at Non-Center locations. Also listed is the name and address of the person you should contact to confirm that the course is still scheduled for the dates given and to whom you should submit a course application form. In most cases the course will be taught in both English and the language indiginous to the place where the course is being held.
