Dhamma Nanadhaja, meaning ‘Flying Flag of Wisdom in Dhamma’ (named after Ledi Sayadaw), will be situated on The Shwe Taung Oo Hill, on the west bank of Chindwin River, seven miles away from Monywa, Yinmabin Township, Monywa District, Sagaing Division, near the Chindwin Bridge. There is a cave on that hill where Ledi Sayadaw, practiced Vipasasna and wrote the Manuals of Dhamma. At present Ledi Sayadaw's statue is located there and seems to be benevolently looking down where the Centre is to be constructed. In 2004, the local government had granted six acres to establish this Vipassana centre. Since 1996, off-centre courses had been held in Dhamma Yeik hall, Su Taung Pyae Pogada, in Monywa. Provisional accomodation for 50-male and 100-female students is set. Guruji SNGoenka first visit the center in Jan 2000 and second in Jan 2003.

All courses are run solely on a donation basis. All expenses are met by donations from those who, having completed a course and experienced the benefits of Vipassana, wish to give others the same opportunity. Neither the Teacher nor the assistant teachers receive remuneration; they and those who serve the courses volunteer their time. Thus Vipassana is offered free from commercialisation.
Old students are those who have completed a 10-day Vipassana Meditation course with S.N. Goenka or his Assistant Teachers. Old students have the opportunity to provide Dhamma Service at the courses listed.
Bilingual courses are courses which are taught in two languages. All students will hear daily meditation instructions in both languages. The evening discourses will be heard separately.
Meditation courses are held at both center and non-center locations. Meditation centers are dedicated facilities where courses are held regularly throughout the year. Before meditation centers were established in this tradition, all courses were held at temporary sites, such as campgrounds, religious retreat centers, churches and the like. Today, in regions where centers have not yet been established by local students of Vipassana who live in the area, 10 Day meditation courses are held at non-center course sites.
