10-day silent meditation retreats are offered from the first to the eleventh day of each month. The retreat takes place in a quiet location about two kilometers from the main monastery, situated in a coconut grove. Registration has to be in person on the last day of the previous month; those who choose to arrive earlier are being offered a place for free at Suan Mokkh monastery. Following the technique of Anapanasati (mindfulness with breathing) you will learn about meditation practice (sitting, standing, walking) and how to find quietness and strength in yourself.
Furthermore, you keep complete silence throughout the retreat. Every participant gets a small individual cell, everything is simple and clean.
Good knowledge of English is helpful though not obligatory. Fee: 2,000 Baht. Further information: tel. 077-431596, fax 431597, www.suanmokkh-idh.org
Attention: The rainy season is less suitable because of many mosquitoes. Bring sarongs for taking a shower and for bathing in the hot spring! The 12-page script “Ten Day Buddhist Meditation Course at Suan Mokkh – Basic Information” can help you to decide whether you are able to participate and to commit yourself for the entire retreat.
