An University of the West Community Education Course 西來大學社區教育課 (CE-MED824):

Nikaya Study Workshop, an University of the West Community Education Course
December 22-28, 2023

This intensive class is suited for both new and experienced practitioners who wish to study and practice the Buddha’s core Satipatthana instructions. Through lectures and group discussions, we will unpack how these instructions help develop the stability of mind in daily life and support concentration, insight, and equanimity in meditation. At the end, participants will gain a solid foundation for applying mindfulness in daily living, and practicing meditation to reduce stress and develop wisdom.

這密集課程適合希望學習和實踐佛陀核心四念處教導的新和老練修行者。 透過講座和小組討論，我們將揭開如何培養日常生活中的平穩心、止禪、觀禪、和禪修平捨的步驟。 參與者將奠定堅固的正念基礎於日常生活和禪修中以減輕壓力並增上智慧。

Sayadaw U Kumārābhivaṃsa 尊者出生于缅甸，早年出家，并于27岁前即通过了缅甸圣典教益(Pariyatti Sasana Hita) 协会的佛法考试,被授予阿毗旺萨(Abhivamsa)称号。

圣典教益协会宗教考试是巴利语及佛法导师的最高等级考试，而阿毗旺萨这个称谓非常稀少，获得这种荣誉的出家人必须在27岁前达到并展示对巴利文、三藏经典、义注及复注有博士一样的精通程度，即相当于巴利佛法博士学位。

尊者不仅通达三藏教理、精通缅语及英语，同时也是帕奥禅林的禅修导师，经常被尊敬的帕奥西亚多指派负责教导国内外的禅修者。目前是眉谬帕奥分院的业处导师。
