“There is an assured way to develop a healthy personality free from suffering, gain insight and attain the highest state of consciousness, the Nibbana. These benefit can be realized by awakening mindfulness and insight in to true nature of body, feeling, mind and dhamma.”
(Buddha- Satipatthana Sutta.)
Over 2500 years Vipassana meditation practice based on Satipatthana sutta has enabled many to attain above goals. Recently some well-designed scientific studies have validated the efficacy of this technique in enhancing physical and mental well-being.
This one day Vipassna retreat will be conducted by Ven. Dr. Somaloka,(MA, PhD), the founder of the first Buddhist meditation center in Australia in 1972. Ven Somaloka is a provisionally registered psychologist in Australia, Hawaii state licensed acupuncturist who has a private practice in psychological counseling combined with acupuncture for various physical and mental conditions. He conducts meditation retreats and workshops on mindfulness based psychotherapy in Australia, USA, and Singapore introducing a therapy model- “Compassion oriented mindfulness psychotherapy” that he has developed.
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced meditator, this is a unique opportunity for the participants to experience the practice of Vipassana mediation and get some insight into its practical benefits. We look forward to your participation.
