Vipassana Czech Republic and Slovakia

Vipassana Czech Republic and Slovakia

Praha, Czech Republic

Vipassana courses in the Czech Republic have been organized since 2006, on average once or twice a year. The Czech language 10-day courses have been taking place in the meditation centre Dhamma Pallava in Polland. 

Vipassana, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient meditation techniques. It was taught in India more than 2,500 years ago as a universal remedy for universal ills, i.e., an Art of Living. An Introduction to Vipassana by Mr Goenka, related videos and Q&As about Vipassana are available on our homepage.

Course types

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.

1-Day
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.
10-Day

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 7:30 am.

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.
