Description
It is a core part of our tradition that no one is excluded from hearing the teachings due to financial constraints. We recognize that the COVID-19 situation may have affected many people’s livelihoods. If this is your situation, please contact registrar@planetdharma.com to discuss options for reducing or waiving the admin fee.
There are many vehicles we can use for awakening, and there is no substitute for meditation. In this second online course of 2020, we will explore the Theravadin tradition of Vipassana, or insight meditation, through the lens of the Four Foundations of Mindfulness.
This course is made up of 4 classes which will take place live on Monday evenings 7:30-9pm MST. (April 6th, 13th, 20th and 27th)
Recordings will also be available if you can’t attend live.
Notes about these sessions:
-
We offer this course on the basis of dāna, as well as an admin fee of $100 USD. The admin fee helps cover the costs of running these online courses.
-
For the teachings themselves – Dāna is a Sanskrit term meaning “generosity”. With dāna, we give as a mutual exchange of generosity. You may have come across this in the form of “pay from the heart”. It’s our joy to offer this course, and we trust you’ll match our time, energy, and passion by giving an amount of money that feels good and healthy to both you and us. We suggest a range between $120 and $500 for this four-week course. For more information on dāna click here.

When you register you will receive a confirmation email with details instructing you how to access the course.
-
We recommend you attend the classes live to benefit from joining with others, having the opportunity to ask questions, and interacting in breakout rooms. Recordings are available for one week after the class if you are unable to attend.
-
Homework for anyone attending teachings: opportunities for weekly practice or reflection are given at the end of each class. Experiences can be shared on our private Planet Dharma Facebook Group. Instructions to access the group will be in your confirmation email.
