Dhamma Porāṇo means Ancient Dhamma. It refers to the ancient dhamma path that the Lord Buddha had travelled. It is the seventh Thailand Vipassana center to offer courses in Vipassana Meditation as taught by S.N. Goenka in the tradition of Sayagyi U Ba Khin. The first ten-day course has commenced in October 2011. The center is situated on an area of 4.8 acres, on the road to the Kra-roam Falls, the district of Khao-kaew, Amphur Lanska, Nakorn Sri Dhammaraj province. It is surrounded by mountains in the Khao-Luang National Park. The area is dotted by rubber, long kong, and mangosteen plantations.
At present, the center does not have facility to accommodate non-Thai speaking students.

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.
