Buddhist Center in northern Jersey?
I’m very interesting in practicing Buddhism with a mentor. So far, I’ve been learning and practicing what I can from books and the internet, but would really like to hear lectures and recieve formal instruction. I am right across the river from NYC, and while there is a center on 5th ave., I can’t afford the fare to get there and back very often.
Are there centers which offer free classes or lectures or guided meditation in northern jersey?
I would highly recommend a 10-day vipassana meditation course (http://www.dhamma.org/vipassan.htm… ) if you can get the time off. I think it’s definitely worth it, so keep it in mind.
It’s very intense, over 10 hours of meditation a day for 10 days, complete silence (except with the teachers), and guidance instructions basically broken up into hour-chunks. It might seem intimidating but it’s very doable and you just need to have the intention to do it.
Also it’s non-sectarian, anyone can practice it, and it’s free from any dogma, blind belief, etc.
Also (again) the courses are free, by donation only, and no recommended or forced donation. Even the room and board are provided, because past students have found it to be beneficial so it’s supported entirely by donation.
Very intense but since it’s so rigorous most people see distinct benefits after only 10 days.
