Dhamma Ujjala
Residential Vipassana meditation courses in this tradition have been held in rented facilities in the Adelaide area since the mid 1980s. Dhamma Ujjala, which means “bright or blazing Dhamma”, was purchased in December 2008. It is located in the pristine Clare Valley, one and three quarter hours north of Adelaide.

Due to high demand, multiple applications will not be processed. Please apply to sit only one 10-day course at a time.
All courses open at 7:30 pm (8:30 pm daylight savings time).
Vipassana courses successfully operate around the world because old students volunteer their time as servers. Occasionally, old students may be asked to serve a course and then receive priority for sitting at their next opportunity.

10-Day
Satipatthana Sutta
Satipatthana Sutta Courses have the same timetable and discipline as 10-day courses. 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 sat (not including courses served) 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 their meditation practice and the five precepts in their daily lives, at the very minimum from the time of applying to the course.
Work Period
Work Periods have been set aside to work on a variety of Centre maintenance, construction, household and gardening projects. All Old Students are welcome to apply. The daily program will include three group sittings with morning and afternoon work periods. On selected evenings, there will be tapes played of special discourses and talks that S.N. Goenka has given to Old Students.
