I did a 10-day Vipassana course. While the task of sitting for 10 hours a day for 10 days, observing maun vrat (seriously), and having no communication devices — completely cut off from the world... looks daunting, the experience was great. I’ll post a longer review later, but here are the highlights:
--Excellent staff: kind-hearted, yet strict in adhering to rules and ensuring the workshop runs like clockwork.
--Simple, tasty food.
--Inclusive and equal for everyone — no special treatment, even if there’s a mini-celeb or VIP in the group.
--Great and knowledgeable teacher.
--Genuinely designed 10-day program.
--No commercialization: it’s meant for people with serious intentions, not a quick feel-good meditation masterclass.
--Diversity of crowd: age, professional background, fitness level, meditation experience, motivation.
Please Avoid if you are:
--Looking for a simple “I did meditation”kind of instagram update. There are plenty of branded meditation/art courses for that. Don’t subject yourself to this grueling task.
--Don’t worry about:
Long hours of sitting, meditation, or any restrictions. Most people survive just fine :)
A Meditation centre within Mumbai is always a blessing.
Very well designed building in terms of placement of Dhamma hall, dinning, rooms.
May all beings be benefited through the purity of this place. 🪷
Good meditation center with all basic amenities. Hall is fully air-conditioned and need to maintain AC. Limited hot water during Rainy seasons. Overall, Best center for meditation.
• A five storey building with residences for all students on three floors and meditation hall on the top floor.
• Dhamma hall is air conditioned with minimal noise enough for meditating.
• Single building campus makes it quicker for you to move from your room to meditation hall & dinner hall or any other place.
• Good end to end management of the course by the trust. Good quality food & accommodation.
• Having a basic meditation centre in the heart of the city is a blessing.
• It is enough for the purpose of learning top quality meditation for life passed on by The Great Gautama Buddha while minimizing the need for extra amenities of bigger pagodas.
> Course related experience based advice:
• Try to bring everything you will need for 10 days.
• Trust the process & stick to the course til the end despite any aversion, it'll be worth it.
• Follow the rules of meditation like noble silence & others to ensure success.
