How do we create our experience and how in each moment can we free or imprison ourselves? Why does life seem such a struggle?  How can I understand birth and death, and at the same time the timeless and deathless? What is consciousness?

This is a fundamental and yet most profound Buddhist teaching that is the basis of Buddhist psychology, and insight into perennial questions about reality that keep arising. It is taught here in an easily understandable, daily life, practical way.

 

The course will include online meetings of the group with Stephen in which there will be questions and answers about the topics of the course, and dharma conversations that will be sent before each lesson to the participants for listening before the meeting.

 

As part of the course, the participants will receive dharma talks with Stephen Fulder, videotaped, pre-recorded. Written materials will also be sent and instructions will be given for practice at home.

 

Once a week, the participants will meet with Stephen Online for an hour and a half session that will begin with a joint meditation practice and then there will be time for questions and answers.

 

* The Dharma talks that will be sent will be given in English.

* The meeting (meditation + questions and answers) will be mostly in English.

* We request to participate in the course with an open camera, especially during the times of sharing and talking in the group.

Tovna organization is not supported by any body or institution. In most of its activities, it operates in the spirit of the ancient tradition of "Dana" (giving out of the generosity of the heart).

The activities take place thanks to the generosity of practitioners who support the association with financial donations, as well as thanks to the generosity of a large number of activists and volunteers who work without pay.

 

 

 

We are aware that we are in a period of economic uncertainty, and for us it is also a challenging period in this respect.

The payment of the participation fee supports Tovana to continue to exist even during this period and also supports the possibility of returning to offer retreats and courses in the same way as we have operated so far.

We choose to continue to offer the Dharma with an open heart out of trust and community responsibility.

 

For the course, we charge participation fees intended to cover course expenses (the costs of renting the platform and various organization expenses).

The participation fee must be paid in advance only.

We offer a price designed to connect the need to cover expenses with the spirit of Dana (generosity).

 

The price per participant is 290 NIS.

You are welcome to pay this amount or a higher amount, to help Insight continue to offer the courses and support those who are unable to pay.

 

Those who are unable to pay the full amount, please pay what you can afford.

We will make it clear that we are not interested in people not participating in the course due to a financial limitation.

 

 

The instruction in the course is given in the tradition of 'Dana' - the generosity of the heart: without a price set in advance in order to allow anyone who wishes to come and practice regardless of financial situation.

This is a community support in which each and every one gives according to his/her ability in order to help even those whose hand cannot reach at the same time.

At the same time, the community supports the teachers through Dana given at the end of the meeting.

Many teachers who teach in the "Tovana" courses dedicate their lives to spreading the Dharma out of generosity of heart and a good will to help others along the way.

The donations help them continue to maintain a lifestyle of deepening the path and share its fruits with the others.

At the end of each meeting, the participants are invited to generously support the teacher and continue teaching the Dharma in this way.
