Dipping into the dharma

This weekend I dipped into the vipassana meditation weekend at orlagh retreat centre Ballycullen, which was organised by Dublin Insight Meditation Group . I spent about eight hours under the brialliant guidance of Bhante BodhiDhamma, a teacher in the Mahasi tradition of Theraveda buddhism. It's challenging stuff, you can find lots more about the teachings from thte Satipanya website. Free audio teachings in MP3 format seems to be becoming all the rage on buddhist sites.

Among my favorites: audiodharma and Tara Brach's wonderful talks. Tara is the teacher at Insight Meditation Centre Washington.
