Vipassana Retreats in Thailand

3 posts in this topic

Hey guys, I am looking for a good vipassana meditation retreat in Thailand. I've heard of one at the Wat Chom Tong and Wat Tam Doi Tohn Temple. I am looking for like a 10 day retreat (not basic course) that includes vegeterian food. Have any of you guys done a retreat in Thailand that you recommend? Also are there any other "spiritual things" you can recommend to do in Thailand.

Doi Sutep has a retreat center if you're in Chiang Mai. Make sure you book in advance for it.

I visited this one https://www.watbhaddanta.com/english/about-us/

Really great. I got a separate room and there was no given period of time I should stay. I had a teacher with whom I discussed my progress. I was progressively taught sitting vippassana (similar to Shinzen's noting) and different stages of walking meditation. The food was great, vegeterian or carnivorous, take your pick. The pay was voluntary. Every now and then you go to report to the abbot.

Recommend it highly!
