Welcome to Valley Insight Meditation Society
Valley Insight Meditation Society was created by a group of people who practice and study in the Theravadan Buddhist tradition. The organization's intention is to provide opportunities for the larger community to explore these teachings, which include Vipassana, or Insight, meditation.
Meditation practice, through a wise and careful training of attention, can lead to a peaceful mind and a steady, kind heart. It helps us find our way to wisdom and compassion in the midst of the stressful complexities of our lives.

- "If you really see uncertainty clearly, you will see that which is certain. The certainty is that things must inevitably be uncertain and that they cannot be otherwise. Do you understand?" - Ajahn Chah, Thai meditation master
