SUMMARY:Vipassana meditation weekend 15 - 16 November – Adi Ichsan - day 1
DESCRIPTION:For those with some experience practicing Vipassana meditation. Registration required; guidance provided by Adi Ichsan\, in Samana. \nPractical deepening of traditional Vipassana\, emphasizing the distinction between body (Rupa) and mind (Nama). The focus is on the process of spiritual growth (Yogavacara) through the work of diligence\, mindfulness\, and clear understanding (Atapi\, Sati\, Sampajano). \nParticipants are expected to understand how “involvement” with doing\, feeling\, thinking and being affects the maintenance of suffering (Dukkha) and spiritual defilements (Kilesa Tanha). \nFurthermore\, attention will be paid to the supporting functions of discipline (Sikhati) and wise contemplation (Yoniso Manasikara). The method employed will confront the yogi with discomfort\, impermanence\, and meaninglessness\, in every physical or mental posture. The exercises will be expanded to include standing\, walking\, lying\, and prostration meditation. \n\nHours: Days are from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM\, including a vegetarian/vegan lunch. Please arrive a little earlier; you’re welcome from 9:40 AM.\nLocation: Samana\, Droogbak 11 in Amsterdam. Accessible by public transport\, a 7-minute walk from Amsterdam Central Station.\n\nParticipation\n\nRegister via the registration form or – if you are already known to Dhammadipa – by sending an email to info@dhammadipa.nl.\nThere is space for maximum 12 participants.\nYou can also participate one day.\nParticipants who register for the full weekend have priority.\nIn case the weekend is fully booked\, you can ask to be placed on a waiting list.\nIf you are unable to attend\, please inform us as soon as possible. We can then invite the next person on the waiting list.\n\nPlease note the advice to prevent respiratory infections \nFrom our point of view on buddhist ethics respiratory infections are a risk for teachers and participants as well as for those present to contaminate others. In this we have chosen to follow the guidelines of the government. See https://www.government.nl/topics/coronavirus-covid-19/tackling-new-coronavirus-in-the-netherlands/preventing-respiratory-infections. \nFollowing the advice below helps limit the spread of viruses that cause respiratory infections. This helps protect everyone\, including people with health concerns. \nAdvice \nCoughing\, sneezing\, a sore throat and a stuffy or runny nose are signs of respiratory infection. \n\nStay at home if you are ill.\nIf your symptoms are mild\, stay at home or do a selftest of good quality\, with negative result and max 24 hours before the meditation activity. In case of doubt a new selftest is mandatory\, which will be provided by Dhammadipa.\nIf you have symptoms\, avoid physical contact with people who could become seriously ill from a cold or flu virus. Wear a face mask if physical contact is necessary\, for example\, when providing care.\n\nFor questions and comments please mail info@dhammadipa.nl. \nDana\n\nThe meditation weekend is being offered on the basis of dana (a voluntary contribution); with a suggested amount of € 38 per day.\nAt the end of the day or weekend\, there will also be the opportunity to donate extra for the meditation guidance and teachings.\nThe dana can be offered via a bank transfer to the Dhammadipa\, Amsterdam account number NL85 INGB 0005019113\, mentioning ‘vipassana meditation weekend November 2025’. There is also a QR-code.\nThere is also a dana box so that you may offer dana in cash.\n\n
