About US

    Insight Meditation Community of New Jersey offers peer support and group practice in Vipassana (Insight) meditation.

This meditation is a simple and direct practice of moment-to-moment observation of the mind-body process through calm, focused, and friendly awareness. 

   The practice originates in the Theravada (Southern Asia) tradition of the teachings of the Buddha. The goal of this practice is to live with presence, wisdom and compassion.

    IMCNJ was founded in 1994. The group meets at the home of Margaret Sackton and Dennis Maurer in Morristown NJ.  All day silent retreats are offered one Saturday a month.  (Schedule)

    Directions and information are available upon request, using the contact form provided.

    Our sangha welcomes all meditators, from beginning practitioners to those who have been practicing for many years. The purpose of our community is to offer a supportive and friendly environment for the  practice of meditation.
