SUMMARY:Vipassana masterclass by Dhammuttamo (Adi I.) - June 27-28\, in Samana - day 2
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.

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.

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.

In this retreat we practise 24 hours per day (sleeping included).

Every evening there is a Dhamma talk and every day there is a short talk (interview) with the teacher.\nThe venue is very suitable for the intensive practice of meditation.

SUMMARY:Intensive 10-day Vipassana meditation retreat 15-25 February 2024
DESCRIPTION:From 15 to 25 February 2024 an intensive 10-day Vipassana meditation retreat will be organised under the guidance of Aad Verboom. \nFor whom: the retreat is open to everyone who wishes to do an intensive 10-day Vipassana meditation retreat\, beginners as well as experienced meditators. Beginners are required to have followed a Vipassana introduction course in the tradition of Mahasi Sayadaw or have similar experience\, to be assessed by the teacher. \nGuidance: Aad Verboom is connected to Dhammadipa as a teacher\, for more details see www.verboomtraining.nl (Dutch text only). \nTradition and practice: Aad Verboom practises Vipassana meditation in the tradition of Mahasi Sayadaw and from the ‘direct method’. In the direct method there is emphasis on the development of mindfulness (sati) and the corresponding ‘momentary concentration’. There is no or less need for deeper concentration. If meditators develop or wish to develop more concentration during their practice\, this is okay\, in consultation with the teacher. \nWithin the tradition of Mahasi Sayadaw intensive practice is mostly done by alternately doing the sitting- and walking exercises. In this retreat we practise 24 hours per day (sleeping included). You practise mindfulness in the sitting\, walking\, standing and lying postures and during all other activities such as eating\, brushing your teeth etc. This makes the practice uninterrupted\, relaxed and natural. \nFacilities:  \n\nYou have your own room but we also practise together in the meditation hall\, during the day and evening\, alternately sitting and walking. Every evening there is a Dhamma talk and every day there is a short talk (interview) with the teacher.\nThe venue is very suitable for the intensive practice of meditation. As in July 2022 we stay at the Sisters of Denekamp – Zusters van Denekamp | Home.\nThe food is vegetarian\, with a warm lunch and in the evening a light meal. Dietary wishes can be fulfilled within the limits of reason.\n\nRegistration:   \n\nIf you are interested. send an email to info@dhammadipa.nl and a registration form will be sent. Read carefully\, fill in\, sign and mail it. \nRegistration is based on order of entry of the registration form. \n\nIf you have any questions\, please send an email to aad.verboom@gmail.com. We can email\, phone or make a physical or Zoom appointment. \nGeneral information:  \n\nDate: 15 to 25 February 2024\nVenue: Zusters van Denekamp te Denekamp\, Zusters van Denekamp | Home.\nGuidance: Aad Verboom\nCosts: ongeveer Euro 850.\nNumber of participants: max 15.\nDana: at the end of the retreat there is occasion to give dana for the guidance and/or to Foundation Dhammadipa.

SUMMARY:Intensive 10-day Vipassana meditation retreat 16-26 July 2022
DESCRIPTION:The following text is in Dutch and will soon be made available in English.  In the meantime\, Google Translate ? \n  \nVan 16 t/m 26 juli 2022 wordt een intensieve 10-daagse Vipassana meditatieretraite georganiseerd onder begeleiding van Aad Verboom. \nVoor wie:  de retraite is opengesteld voor iedereen die een intensieve 10-daagse Vipassana retraite wil doen. Enige ervaring met (Vipassana) meditatie is gewenst. \nBegeleiding:  Aad Verboom is verbonden als leraar aan Dhammadipa\, voor meer info zie www.verboomtraining.nl. \nTraditie en beoefening:   Aad Verboom beoefent Vipassana meditatie in de traditie van Mahasi Sayadaw en vanuit de directe methode.  Binnen de directe methode ligt de nadruk op het ontwikkelen van oplettendheid (sati) en de daarbij behorende ‘moment-concentratie’. Diepere concentratie is dan niet nodig.  Wanneer mediterenden in hun beoefening wel meer concentratie (willen) ontwikkelen\, is dit geen probleem\, ieder zijn eigen pad. \nBinnen de traditie van Mahasi Sayadaw wordt intensief beoefend door met name afwisselend de zit- en loopoefening te doen. In deze retraite is de beoefening 24 uur per dag (inclusief slapen). Je beoefent oplettendheid in de zit-\, loop\, sta- en lighouding en gedurende alle andere activiteiten zoals eten\, tanden poetsen enzovoorts. De beoefening is daarmee ononderbroken\, ontspannen en natuurlijk. \nFaciliteiten:  \n\nJe hebt een eigen kamer maar we beoefenen gedurende de dag en avond ook samen in de meditatiezaal\, afwisselend zitten en lopen. Elke avond is er een Dhamma talk en je hebt elke dag een kort gesprek (interview) met de leraar.\nDe locatie is zeer geschikt voor intensieve beoefening van meditatie. We verblijven bij de Zusters van Denekamp – Zusters van Denekamp | Home.\nHet eten is vegetarisch\, met ’s avonds een lichte maaltijd. Dieetwensen kunnen binnen de grenzen van het redelijke vervuld worden.\n\nInschrijving:   \n\nEr is nog een beperkt aantal plaatsen vrij voor de retraite. \nDe inschrijving is op volgorde van binnenkomst. \nAls je geïnteresseerd bent\, stuur een e-mail naar info@dhammadipa.nl en je krijgt een inschrijfformulier toegestuurd. Goed lezen\, invullen\, ondertekenen en mailen. \n\nAls je van tevoren vragen hebt of wilt afstemmen\, neem contact op via aad.verboom@gmail.com.  We kunnen dan een fysieke of Zoom afspraak maken\, e-mailen of bellen. \nAlgemene gegevens:  \n\nDatum: 16 t/m 26 juli 2022\nLocatie: Zusters van Denekamp te Denekamp\, Zusters van Denekamp | Home.\nBegeleiding: Aad Verboom\nKosten: Euro 770.\nAantal deelnemers: maximaal 14.\nDana: aan het einde van de retraite is gelegenheid dana te geven voor het onderricht en/of aan Stichting Dhammadipa.\n\n
