impacted my life so positively that I recommend it to anyone seeking positive change. J.S., Real Estate Broker The course has given me clear focus in all areas of my life as well as inner peace and happiness...not in a rah rah excited way...but a deeper quiet, gentle and consistent way. D.B., Engineering Secretary "Meditation Instructor Course" is very suitable for those who are interested because it offers a path for the meditator and allows him to introduce it to others. Luangphor Viriyang Sirintharo designed a very simple curriculum that enables everyone to study at ease.

The Meditation Instructors are fully equipped with thorough knowledge because the course is emphasized on the fundamental aspect of meditation. They should be able to introduce a simple but effective method to others. This will promote fundamental happiness which will reduce stress for the individuals as well as brighten their wisdom. Whether they are youths, working age, or the elders, there are lessons for all of them. Meditation is suitable for learners at all ages and genders because it promotes a healthy physical and mental condition. The course is divided into three terms with 40 days each. There are strict instructions and practices so that the Meditation Instructors can obtain realistic experiences. Along with that, there are revision sessions in which they are able to raise questions until all of their inquiries are clarified. By doing so, they gain thorough knowledge and profound understanding in a comfortable atmosphere. To benefit from both theory and practice, Meditation Instructors are required to attend 200 hours of the course in order to be entitled to take the final exam. Upon their completion, they are also required to take a meditation journey for 4 days and 3 nights. The studies and practices of the Meditation Instructor Course has a systematic and standard curriculum that offers effective and consistent studying. It will equip the Meditation Instructors with a unified and efficient operation.
