- david_b 14y agoThat depends on where you are: there are many retreat centers worldwide: http://www.dharmaoverground.org/web/guest/dharma-wiki/-/wiki/Main/FrontPage?p_r_p_185834411_title=FrontPage#section-FrontPage-RetreatCentersAndPlacesToPractice http://www.dharmaoverground.org/web/guest/dharma-wiki/-/wiki... http://www.dharmaoverground.org/web/guest/discussion/-/message_boards/category/11915 http://www.dharmaoverground.org/web/guest/discussion/-/messa... S.N. Goenka runs a lot of retreat centers worldwide - but those seem to be a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to quality of instruction and treatment of participants. They partially run on donations and I've read at least one account where people had to listen to talk of 'you would feel so much better if you donate money' (not exactly that but close to it). There actually isn't that much to learn about meditation - the hardest part is actually staying with it.
