Vipassana Centers
In the Northwest Area, 10-day courses have been given since 2005 in the monastery of Herbón (Padrón) and since 2008 in the college of Nuestra Señora de los Milagros in Baños de Molgas. Currently there are no provisions to organize courses in this area. In this area, for students who have completed the 10 days course, 1-Day self-courses are held Roxos (near Santiago) and 4 hours group sittings in Santiago on the last Sunday of the month. You can find more information and register for any course by accessing the course schedule link in the right column and clicking on the date of the course that interests you.
The Oregon Vipassana Association organizes Vipassana courses in different locations around Oregon. There are currently four ten-day courses per year, as well as short 1- to 3- day refresher courses for old students (those who have already taken a ten-day course).
Penang has a temporary centre on a hillside with good views overlooking Georgetown. It has shared dormitories for up to 35 students. Usually two ten-day courses are held each month except during the mid-year harvest season.
We are currently running 3 days courses for returning students at a rented site on the Isle of Cumbrae.
Ten-day courses are usually held several times a year. They are mostly at St Johns Island which is located approximately 6.5km south of Singapore. Accommodation facilities are dormitories with shared common bathrooms and toilets. There are regular 1-day courses and weekly group sittings for old students.
