Hello,

I will be going very soon to Yangon in Burma for one week to visit a
friend and I wanted to ask the following questions:

1) Is there in Yangon an institution where Pali is taught (and also
English spoken)? Since I will have some free time I would like to work
a bit on my exercises and it would be great if I could discuss about
them with some people proficient in Pali.

2) I discovered Vipassana meditation (Goenka school) in Yangon about
two years ago at Dhamma Joti. This time I would like to enquire about
other meditation centers, especially after having read some of the
threads of Bhante Sujato (on Jhanas) which suggest that it could be
well worth deepening the research. I was first thinking of visiting
some U Ba Khin meditation center. Since U Ba Khin was Goenka's
teacher, I suppose the techniques are identical but I would like to
check it out by myself. However, I looked on http://www.ubakhin.com/
but couldn't find any address of an U Ba Khin center in Yangon. Is
there any?? Does anybody have any other suggestions besides the Goenka
center?

With Metta,

Florent
