What we’re about
OUR PURPOSE:
Awakening and Elimination of Unhappiness
Bhante Vimalaramsi is the abbot of Dhamma Sukha Meditation Center in Annapolis, Missouri. He is the guide for the on-site residential retreats. He teaches Tranquil Wisdom Insight Meditation (T.W.I.M.) which uses the "Mindfulness of Lovingkindness" practice (otherwise known as the practice of the Brahma Viharas) for the journey to Nibbāna. Little known fact but verifiable in the suttas is that the practice of Metta, as part of the larger Brahma Vihara practice, will take you to all the way through the Divine Abidings to the moment of awakening - Nibbāna - where a transformation of mind takes place. Happiness arises as the burden of the ego melts away.
