We are reopening courses to a limited number of students who meet certain requirements:

- they must be currently living in Italy and able to use the Italian language (therefore only Italian registration forms will be accepted)(it does not apply to servers)

- they must either have been vaccinated or recovered from Covid or have a negative Covid test within 48 hours before arrival at the centre

- they must be able to arrive and leave the centre with your own means of transport or be able to leave by way of a contact who is available to pick you up on the same day in case you develop symptoms. (it does not apply to servers)

Each participant will be asked to carefully read the health protocol in force at the centre and to complete and carry a self-certification form with them; acceptance of these requirements will be essential in order to continue the registration process.

In addition, those who are confirmed on the course must bring sheets and masks.

In case of cancellation of the course, always a possibility should the situation worsen, students and servers will be informed by e-mail.

In this case, we will not be able to offer a replacement or alternative course.

We thank you for your understanding.

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.

Bilingual courses 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.

Meditation courses are held at both center and non-center locations. Meditation centers are dedicated facilities where courses are held regularly throughout the year. 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 held at non-center course sites.
