About IMCC
IMCC provides a welcoming environment for people to engage in Insight Meditation and related practices. IMCC offers ongoing weekly group meditation sessions and dharma talks as well as a variety of educational opportunities designed to increase the understanding, knowledge and practice of insight meditation. IMCC is a 501(c)3 charitable organization and donations are tax-deductible.
Insight or Vipassana Meditation draws on the Buddhist tradition and the central techniques taught by the Buddha upon his enlightenment. IMCC embraces this tradition yet is nonsectarian and open to anyone with a desire to practice meditation.
There are no membership fees. Participation at the ongoing Tuesday evening sessions is based on donations or dana. Fees are required for some retreats and classes. Donations do sustain us and are always welcome.
