GROUP SITTINGS

The information about One-day courses and Group Sittings cannot be published every month because of lack of space in the Vipassana Newsletter. Therefore, it has been decided to publish this information every four months. (Please note that one-day courses and Group Sittings are only for those meditators who have completed a ten-day Vipassana course.)
