One-day courses for old students which Mr. Goenka is scheduled to
visit during the tour are listed below. These one-day sittings are open to
those who have previously completed at least one ten-day Vipassana course
with Goenkaji or any of his assistant teachers.
These courses generally begin in the morning and end in the
late afternoon (please click on the links below for details at each local
event). Goenkaji may give beginning instructions (Anapana, Vipassana) or
closing instructions (Metta) in these one-day courses wherever his schedule
allows. Please note that although Goenkaji is scheduled to be in
the area during this time, it cannot be absolutely guaranteed that he will
be present for the course. Many factors will affect Goenkaji's participation,
especially everyone's concerns for his optimum health during his extended
tour.
