SUMMARY:Vipassana masterclass by Dhammuttamo (Adi I.) - June 27-28\, in Samana - day 1
DESCRIPTION:Vipassana masterclass by Dhammuttamo (Adi I.) Saturday June 27th\, in Samana\, Droogbak 11\, Amsterdam \nFor meditators who have some prior experience of Vipassana meditation. Registration is required\, via e-mail to info@dhammadipa.nl. \nDuring this weekend\, the meaning of ‘here and now’ (paccupannadhamma) in Vipassana will be systematically examined through meditation and discussion. The importance of staying in ‘the here and now’ for nibbana attainment during moments of path and fruit consciousness. The role of feeling (vedana) in falling back into the past (atita) and future (samparaya). \nWhy the possibility of preventing attachment (upadana) is only possible in the present through renunciation (nekkhama). The importance of contact (phassa) of the sensory gates with related objects (salayatana) in the development of desire (tanha) and attachment. \nHow renunciation is developed through mindfulness and how generosity (dana) and precepts (sila) contribute to the development of mindfulness (sati). It is also highlighted how renunciation is attained through disciplined naming and through the presence of concentration (samadhi) at the moment of naming. \nThe exercises (bhavana) are interspersed with questions and explanations (sutta). The aim is that yogis may arrive at understanding (abhisamaya) of the importance of the principle “from moment to moment\, every moment\, all the moment” for attaining a moment of enlightenment. If you only wish to attend for one day\, it will only be possible on Saturday. The activities on Sunday are determined by the realizations of Saturday. \nPractical info \n\nTimes:  daily from 10 – 18 hours. Please join us us shortly before 10:00\, you’re welcome from 9:40 onwards.\nLunch: In March\, we decided to scale back the organization.
