Vipassana Meditation 

• Weekend Meditation Retreat

Every month Wat Buddhawararam facilitates a weekend meditation retreat.  Retreatants can practice vipassana meditation with a true master, chant with the monks; eat authentic Thai foods; and get immersed in the culture of Thailand.  Translation and guidance is provided by volunteers.

In over 50 years as a monk, Ajahn Chalee continues to meditate from 16 to 24 hours a day.  A master renowned by the Thai Theravada order, he trains the other monks in advanced meditation techinques.

• Saturday Morning Service

BCS facilitates a Saturday morning service for english speakers every week.  Visitors and members can practice chanting, practice meditation, hear a dhamma talk, and join in the group discussion.  The service begins at 9:00 am at Wat Buddhawararam.  The schedule is sometimes pre-empted by other activites at the Wat, so please call in advance if you plan on coming.
