Vision & Mission of Hadaya Vatthu Foundation
Hadaya Vatthu Foundation is founded by a group of people who has seen and experienced the wonderful effects of meditation according to the Buddha’s teachings (Dhamma), especially to preserve Theravada Forest Meditation Tradition in Indonesia. People cannot have a deep understanding of the Dhamma without also deepening their concentration (samadhi) and awareness (sati); as part of the Eightfold Noble Path. Hadaya Vatthu is a Pali word. It represents the heart base which is present in the blood of the heart. It is described in the Visuddhimaga (viii, 111)…. "there is hollow the size of a punnaga seeds bed where half a pastata measure of blood is kept, with which as their support the mind element and mind-consciousness element occur.” This is the place where our consciousness emanates.
Our vision is to have as many people as possible make meditation (in accordance with the teachings of the Buddha) a common and daily practice in their lives. It is also our vision to have some Indonesians become highly skilled meditation teachers in the years to come.
Our mission is to introduce meditation techniques and practices (in accordance with the teachings of the Buddha) to the general public so that peaceful and happy meditation communities are developed.
