What you can expect

Travel to the renowned Mahasi Meditation Centre for an introduction to traditional Buddhist meditation practice. Study Buddhist teachings and learn meditation techniques from trained instructors in a peaceful and tranquil environment.

Choose between a morning or evening session and enjoy convenient pickup from your hotel before travelling to the Mahasi Meditation Centre—one of Yangon’s most famous meditation centers. Upon arrival, meet up with your venerable monk and meditation instructor before joining in the daily rituals of the temple, beginning with a recitation followed by sitting and walking group meditation.

Have time to discuss Buddhist teachings with your instructor before continuing your meditation practice. Hear about the techniques taught by Burmese meditation master, Mahasi Sayadaw who stove for intensive, moment-to-moment awareness of every physical movement, every mental and physical sensation and, ultimately, every thought. Refreshed and revitalised, take your leave and enjoy comfortable transport back to Yangon.
