This reading recalls my first venture on a ten day Vipassana retreat in Chiba, Japan. I had been hoping to find a place to meditate regularly and was disappointed to find that the many temples in Tokyo were primarily graveyards, or tourist traps and not the zen temples I had hoped for. The Goenka centre in Chiba, offers free 10 day Vipassana retreats and acts as the first experience for many who attend. This international organisation has meditation sites all over the world and can be accessed freely by those who wish to set aside the time to discover themselves.
