"Your own treasure house already contains everything you need. Why don't you use it freely, instead of chasing after something outside yourself?" --Ma Tzu
The teaching of Vipassana meditation in a correctional facility was tried first in Jaipur, India in 1975. In 1994, the first 10 day meditation course was taught in India's biggest prison, the Tihar jail in the capital New Delhi, house to about 10,000 inmates. It is now spreading throughout the world with very positive results.
