The South Australia Vipassana Centre, Dhamma Ujjala, welcomes all. <br \/>Despite our diverse beginnings and our unique lives, when we come to a Vipassana course we are united by a common cause, a common purpose\u2014to come out of our suffering.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-392ee34 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"392ee34\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-34bded8\" data-id=\"34bded8\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-53a4846 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"53a4846\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><h3>NON-SECTARIAN PROGRAM<\/h3><p>Although this teaching comes from Gotama the Buddha, it is presented in a non-sectarian format. The Buddha was not interested in converting people. He had found the path to the end of suffering, and his only interest was to share this with others. It is the same today. The cause of suffering lies within each of us and we only need to look inside to find its solution. This works for anyone regardless of their origins or traditions. And that is what you will learn here.<\/p><hr class=\"line-dot\" \/><h3>LANGUAGES<\/h3><p>When we count up the native languages of the people on our courses, the number often reaches a dozen. We have the facilities to provide the evening discourse and daily instructions in almost 50 languages. When you first apply for a course, you will be asked about your native language and other languages you might also know. You may be asked to complete a language assessment form as part of the processing of your application. This allows us to determine if we have the facilities to serve you on the course and provide you with the materials you will need. We also usually hold annual bi-lingual courses in Mandarin and English. At these courses we ensure there is an interpreter for those students who need it.<\/p><hr class=\"line-dot\" \/><h3>GENDER DIVERSITY<\/h3><p>At Dhamma Rasmi we welcome people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, gender expressions and bodies so it\u2019s important for you to know that all meditation centres of this tradition are segregated into male and female sides. This extends to the residential accommodation, the walking areas, the bathrooms, the dining rooms and within the meditation hall.<\/p><p>If you identify as a woman, you will be in the female side of the campus, if you identify as a man, you will be in the male side of the campus. We recognise this doesn\u2019t work for everyone, that some may not feel comfortable in these segregated spaces, or may not identify as exclusively male or female (i.e. non-binary).<\/p><p>With that in mind you are welcome to let us know about your accommodation preference in the section of the application form that asks \u201c<i>is there anything you wish to add?<\/i>\u201d Your private information will be kept confidential. If you would like someone to contact you to discuss any aspect of the course further, please feel free to let us know.<\/p><hr class=\"line-dot\" \/><h3>PHYSICAL HEALTH NEEDS<\/h3><p>Some applicants may have a special requirement due to a health issue, a physical limitation, pregnancy or a dietary restriction. We are prepared to accept most people with special requests, but we need to know the extent of someone\u2019s requirements before they arrive. If you have dietary restrictions, please mention this in your application and we will contact you with the menu and allergy information that would be relevant to you. Quite often someone may ask for back support or a chair to meditate in due to physical limitations. We are happy to provide whatever you need to meditate comfortably. Sometimes people ask for a private room for personal or medical reasons. If you feel you need particular accommodation for any reason please tell us in the application where we ask, \u201c<i>Is there anything you wish to add?<\/i>\u201d We will contact you and work out a plan.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-292831d elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"292831d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-48e92e6\" data-id=\"48e92e6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2893565 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"2893565\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<footer class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e4d9ab7 elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e4d9ab7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5410cb5\" data-id=\"5410cb5\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4ce199f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4ce199f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">VIPASSANA MEDITATION SOUTH AUSTRALIA<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f210a2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0f210a2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-sm-12 text-center\"><div class=\"footer-widget\"><address><p>Centre location: Dhamma Ujjala, Lot 52, Emu Flat Road, Clare SA 5453<br \/>+61 (08) 8312 3105 | <span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"mailto:info@ujjala.dhamma.org\">info@ujjala.dhamma.org<\/a><\/span>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>|\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/ujjala.dev.webhost2.dhamma.org\/index.php\/contact\/\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Detailed contact and location information<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p><\/address><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"footer-rights\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-md-12\">\u00a0<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/footer>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWhen one experiences truth, the madness of finding fault with others disappears.\u201d &#8211;
