 A Weekend Meditation Retreat with Sandya Bar Kama

Location: Ein Dor

Vipassana is a technique based on a calm and mindful observation to bodily sensations and processes which help us develop tools to cope with the challenges of life while encouraging peace of mind, compassion and wisdom.

The weekend retreat follows the Insight Meditation format of silence and will lay the foundations for the practice of Vipassana meditation. The meditative observation will focus on the reality of change from a theoretical, practical and experimental point of view.

If this is your first time participating in Tovana’s courses, please read: about courses at Tovana

The retreat is based on the Dana tradition – the practice of giving and generosity. For further information about Dana please read this.

Arrival time at Ein Dor is 15:00 – 16:30 for registration. The course will end at 18:00.

Registration will open 4-6 weeks prior to the retreat’s date.

Volunteers Needed:

In order to hold these courses successfully, we need helping hands both in the kitchen and in management roles. Volunteers experience a “Service Retreat” which is an opportunity to combine giving and meditation practice: sitting on the pillow and a daily practice. Tovana Foundation is based and run largely by volunteers. During last year, about 200 practitioners volunteer in various courses in Ein Dor, in addition to around 50 volunteers in permanent duties. You are invited to volunteer and practice by doing.
