  • 소개/요약Today, Gaia House is one of the largest residential meditation centres in Europe. About 1,500 people from all walks of life and backgrounds attend group and personal retreats here each year, practising meditation in an atmosphere of silence. They are supported by a residential team of eight volunteer coordinators and a permanent team of paid staff. The nine members of the Teacher Council as well as other invited teachers offer a comprehensive range of retreats year round. To support their ongoing practice and create community, meditators have formed many local sitting groups around the United Kingdom affiliated to Gaia House. Gaia House is also part of an informal network of Insight Meditation Centres, principal among which are the Insight Meditation Society in Barre, Massachusetts; Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Woodacre, California; and the Meditation Centre Beatenberg in Beatenberg, Switzerland.
