SUMMARY:Vipassana meditation weekend with attention for the mind 9 - 10 march - day 1
DESCRIPTION:The meditation weekend is suitable for all those living in Amsterdam and the surrounding area\, who are interested in getting acquainted with or deepen their practice of Vipassana meditation. \nRegistration is required.  Guidance by Marc Heijmerink\, one of the teachers of Dhammadipa. \nThe Vipassana meditation weekend is based on the approach of ‘attention for the mind’\, cittanupassana and inspired by the approach of Sayadaw U Tejaniya. \nMeditation is an activity of the mind\, in his words.  We meditate with the mind\, not with our body and actually all foundations are to be found in our mind.  Our problems as well as the solution to our problems are found in the mind. \nIn the Satipatthana sutta the 4 foundations of mindfulness are mentioned: mindfulness on the body\, feeling\, mind and dhamma’s. In the weekend there will be instructions on the means to use the mind as a foundation of mindfulness.  Themes that will be addressed will be:  preference / aversion and ignorance in the mind\, right insight\, relaxation in meditation\, right effort and investigation in meditation. \nVenue for all sessions is Karunika\, Meerhuizenplein 38\, Amsterdam. \nDaily schedule\n\n9:45 – 10:00 Arrival and welcome\n10:00 – 12:30 meditation session 1 (walking and sitting)\n12:30 – 13:30 lunch – a vegetarian / vegan lunch is provided\n13:30 – 15:30 meditation session 2 (walking and sitting)\n15:30 – 16:00 pause for refreshments\n16:00 – 17:00 meditation session 3 (sitting)\n17:00 – 18:00 Q&A and Dhamma talk\n\nParticipation\n\nThere is space for maximum 12 participants.\nYou may also join for one day.\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.
