Winter Retreat 2025 and Dhamma Hall usage.

Dear friends, warm greetings and all good wishes for 2025 from Luang Por Viradhammo and the Tisarana Community.

As always, the residents here at the monastery have started our annual Winter Retreat which will end on Mar 31st, 2025. April will be our month of planning and New Visitor Orientations will commence in May. Those dates will be published in our calendar in April. We do not accept overnight visitors during the Winter months.

The Dhamma Hall is now ready, providing a lovely space for meditation, contemplation and silence. The resident community would like to welcome you to use the hall for your practice when you visit. Please park your vehicles in the parking lot and proceed directly to the Dhamma Hall.

The house can be accessed if you are bringing dāna, but if not, please restrict your visit to the Dhamma Hall itself. The hall will be accessible from 8 AM to 9 PM every day. No permission or prior intimation is required.

Though there’s a tea station available in the Dhamma Hall, we would request that food and drink not be brought into the Hall, but restricted to the hallway areas. All are encouraged to imbibe the silence and stillness of the Dhamma Hall by being mindful when entering, leaving and using the space.… Read the rest

Sunday Public Meditation cancelled – 10 Nov 2024.

Dear friends,

The upcoming Sunday Public Meditation session on 10th November is cancelled.

We realise that these sessions are very popular, but regrettably, the situation is unavoidable. Please look out for an announcement regarding Nov 17th, Sunday, if things are better, we will certainly let you know.

All of us here send you our warmest regards and most sincere regrets for cancelling.… Read the rest
