DHAMMA UJJALA

VIPASSANA MEDITATION SOUTH AUSTRALIA

After completing a 10-day Vipassana meditation course at Dhamma Ujjala a feeling of joy and confidence arises in the meditator. The way to live with ease and contentment has been experienced, along with an emerging wish to share this with others. With a growing feeling of gratitude, they wish to support future courses and the development of a centre where 120 students can participate in one of the 24 courses that are held each year. 

Dhamma Ujjala is located in the tranquil Clare Valley just over the ridge from the town of Clare. The area’s Mediterranean climate means the days are sunny and pleasant, followed by clear, starry nights. On site, the centre comprises two adjacent properties; one with the current facilities, the other, a 5-minute walk away, where the main buildings are under construction. 

People who come to serve at the centre can stay in comfortable accommodation while they serve on the courses or help with construction, and at the same time deepen their understanding and practice. Transport can be arranged from the airport – contact us directly for more information, or apply to serve via the course schedule.

About
VIPASSANA

The technique of Vipassana meditation is a practical way to achieve peace of mind and live a happy, productive life. It is learned by attending a 10-day residential course with a qualified teacher where the student is free from distractions so that the reality within can be observed. This technique helps practitioners come out of suffering; it is non-sectarian and is suitable to all people regardless of religion, gender, race or nationality.

HOW TO APPLY​

Before applying for a course you should read and accept the code of discipline which explains what Vipassana is and is not, and what is expected of you when attending a course, which is a serious undertaking.

About Our Courses

All courses offered at the Vipassana Meditation South Australia centre, Dhamma Ujjala, are conducted by assistant teachers of SN Goenka using audio and video recordings of Mr Goenka’s instructions and discourses. All ten day courses begin the evening of the arrival day and end early morning of the departure day.

There are no charges for the courses – not even to cover the cost of food and accommodation. All expenses are met by donations from people who, having completed a course and experienced the benefits of Vipassana, wish to give others the opportunity to also benefit.
