Vihara Giri Manggala adalah salah satu vihara besar yang berada di Pulau Bali, tepatnya di bagian utara yaitu Singaraja, Buleleng, Bali. Untuk menuju vihara ini dapat ditempuh 2 jam dari Denpasar (Ibukota Provinsi Bali) melalui jalur Kebun Raya Bedugul atau jika Anda menempuh jalan darat dan menyeberang dari Banyuwangi, Jawa Timur (Pelabuhan Ketapang) ke Pelabuhan Gilimanuk di Bali, vihara ini dapat dicapai sekitar 1,5 jam dari Gilimanuk tersebut. Selama perjalanan dari Gilimanuk, Anda akan disuguhkan panorama Taman Nasional Bali Barat (TNBB). Perjalanan menuju Vihara Giri Manggala dari Gilimanuk akan melewati kota kecil bernama Seririt.

Hingga saat ini (13-Mar-2015), di wilayah Buleleng sendiri terdapat beberapa vihara dan cetiya, yaitu : Vihara Giri Manggala (Alasangker), Vihara Velluvana (Bontihing), Vihara Samyag Dharsana (Petandakan), Vihara Samyag Dresti (Penglatan), Vihara Buddhavamsa (Kota Singaraja), Cetiya Buddha Manggala (Kota Singaraja), Vihara Dharma Ramsi (Pemaron), dan Brahma Vihara Arama (Banjar). Masih ada destinasi vihara-vihara megah dan artistik lainnya di Pulau Bali yang sayang jika Anda lewatkan saat berkunjung ke Pulau Bali.

Notes and Events:

Meditation System: As taught by S.N. Goenka. In a ten day retreat, meditators begin by undertaking the Five Precepts of moral conduct as the basis for their practice. They work to concentrate the mind by focusing on the natural breath at the nostril. Once sufficient concentration is established, they proceed to the technique of Vipassana proper: They explore their mental and physical nature by moving attention systematically throughout the body, dispassionately observing the physical sensations that occur. This ever-deepening introspection sets in motion a process by which past conditioning of the mind is eliminated layer by layer. The course concludes with the practice of Metta Bhavana, the mental sharing with others the benefits meditators have gained by their practice.

Intensive silent retreats are open to the general public. The usual course format is ten days. There is no charge for the teaching. Donations are accepted from participants only to cover room, board, and other operating expenses. Most courses are conducted by authorised assistant teachers.

The Kenya Vipassana Association is one of numerous centers and non-center sites worldwide offering courses in Vipassana Meditation, taught by S.N.Goenka and his assistant teachers in the tradition of Sayagyi U Ba Khin

The courses are held at the Adolph Kolping Centre which is located about 10 km away from the center of Nairobi City and around 40 minutes car-ride from the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.  The center is situated opposite the Nairobi National Park and Bomas of Kenya Cultural Center, in a serene and quiet environment.  It has 28 double rooms with self-contained bathrooms which can comfortably accommodate around a total of 50 students.   

Approximately three 10-day courses are offered in Kenya each year, along with 3-day courses and children and teenagers 1-day course.  The courses are conducted in English and Kiswahili.  Approximately 120  students from around East Africa complete our courses annually. 

There is now a growing community of Vipassana meditators living in Nairobi who have given invaluable Dhamma service to the running of courses as well as establishing outreach activities amongst local communities.  Future plans for the acquisition of land for the construction of a permanent center are underway which would make Kenya the second Dhamma center after Dhamma Pataka in South Africa.

Notes and Events:

Dhamma Pabha (which means "radiance" or "glow of Dhamma") is nestled in a forest in the slopes of Mt Dromedary, forty minutes by road from Hobart. The tall trees and the bushland setting are far from the noises of civilisation, trains or traffic, the only sounds being those of the native wildlife.

After twelve years of holding courses at hired campsites, the first course was held at Dhamma Pabha in December 1994 using temporary facilities. There is now a warm and comfortable meditation hall, kitchen and office. The next project will be to build more permanent accommodation for the students. Despite Tasmania\\\'s isolation and small population, a dedicated group of Vipassana students are building a peaceful sanctuary of Dhamma in the forest there.

Ten-day residential courses in vipassana meditation are held every month. All ten-day courses begin the evening of the first day and end early morning of the last day. Vipassana means to see things as they really are. In a ten-day course students learn to develop heightened awareness and concentration, which is then used to examine their own mental and physical nature. By this practice they gain insight and detachment to free themselves from such mental tensions as anger, greed and fear.

These courses are conducted by Assistant Teachers to S.N.Goenka of the Vipassana International Academy, India.
