Guidelines
Apply Early. Please note that courses at most of the Vipassana Meditation Centres are full 1-2 months in advance. We encourage you to apply early in order to allow time to make travel arrangements once registered.
- Read the Introduction to the Technique so you are familiar with the practice before you arrive.
- Read the Code of Discipline page carefully, as you will be required to follow it during your course.
- Search the Upcoming Course List to find a course that is suitable for your schedule and location. If you have not previously completed a 10-Day Vipassana course as taught by S.N. Goenka or one of his appointed teachers, please search under “For New Students”.
- Click “Apply” next to the course you would like to attend. Fully and completely fill out all the sections of the application form and submit it.
- Once you have submitted your application, you will receive an email confirming your application has been received. Please note that this first email is not a notice of acceptance to the course.
- Await notification of whether you have been accepted for the course. All correspondence will be through e-mail if you give an e-mail address in your application. Due to the large volume of applications, it may take up to one month before receiving notification.
- Once you are accepted into the course you will receive an email asking you to confirm your attendance. Please make sure to confirm promptly to reserve your space. If your confirmation is not received, your spot will be given to a student on the waitlist.
