Vivekavana Sanctuary Grove Visit

This afternoon, six of us (myself, Amy, Uncle Lim, Peter, Mr Lee and Ah Chin) went up the Berapit Hill to Vivekavana Sanctuary Grove (VSG) to meet the Sayadaw of VSG.

This trip is organised by Uncle Lim to discuss matter regarding next week BMBMC 2nd Vipassana Meditation Retreat that will be conducted by Sayadaw U Ukkhamsa.

As this is the first time, Amy and I will be doing a retreat at Vivekavana, we decided to follow Uncle Lim there.
We parked our car at No 33 which is a house at the foot of the hill.
Both Amy and I decided to climb up the hill while the others took pillion on motorbikes.
We took 30 minutes to reach the Sanctuary.
This the second time we had climb up the hill. The first time it rained before we reach the place.
Today it was drizzling and it rained as soon as we reached the Sanctuary.

After paying our respects to the Sayadaws, we went round the Sanctuary to know the place.

Finally at about 4.00 pm, we left the VSG. This time all six of us walked down the hill.

We then proceed to Berapit Hawker Center for a quick and refreshing cendol and ice kacang for tea.
