North American Vipassana Prison Trust
In the United States and Canada, Vipassana Meditation courses are taught within prisons and other correctional facilities. Vipassana, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India’s most ancient techniques of meditation. Prison courses are held within the walls of the facility and have the same structure as courses offered to the public at our established meditation centers around the world. These courses follow the tradition of Mr. S.N. Goenka, in which an introduction to Vipassana is taught through an intensive, silent, 10-day course. Courses are available to anyone interested in learning the technique.
