Welcome to Dhamma Sukha Meditation Center
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. Happiness arises as the burden of the ego melts away. Bhante talks about the benefits of using Metta here vs. the breath. Metta is much faster and easier for the path to awakening. Metta is not just a "feel-good" practice; it is the direct path to the unconditioned (SN 46.54(4)).

- May 30th 2018 -Online Retreat"I went so deep this morning. Everything stopped. Then, I saw these waves and links happen. Right after this my mind exploded with so much joy! Student quote.
- June 20th 2018, Online retreat, "As I mentioned, I had been radiating Metta most of the day. During both sitting and walking meditations, I found the experience significantly different from yesterday. While yesterday, the radiation was quite overwhelming and resulted in very strong sensations on the outside of my head, Today it flowed very easily and readily. At different times, it felt like a very lucid stream of water or like I was a source of light/ electromagnetic radiation. Felt very effortless..." RG India
