Welcome

New York Insight is an urban center for the practice of mindful awareness, called Insight or Vipassana meditation. NYI programs include talks, weekly sittings and courses as well as daylong and weekend retreats and workshops for the integration of meditation teachings into daily life. NYI strives to be a center that reflects the vivid diversity of the city in which we live. Our center is a place where everyone—of different ages, nationalities, cultures, languages, ethnicities, sexual orientation, and spiritual backgrounds—is welcome to begin or deepen meditation practice based on the teachings of the Buddha.


Announcement

Although NYI has managed to maintain constant program fees for the past four years, rising costs have forced us to increase them by a modest amount.  At the same time, we hold fast to our pledge that no one will be turned away for financial reasons. Our scholarship program is available to all who need financial assistance and thus insures that no one need be deprived of the teachings because of monetary concerns. No questions asked. Please send a brief letter or email if you are interested in a scholarship.
