    Hi,
    I've been trying to learn about buddhism meditation from books. I would now like to expand my knowledge with the help of a meditation teacher in the Galway City area. I am interested in theravader buddhism, but I do not know where to turn too. Would anyone on this notice be able to point me in the right direction? A contact would be great!!

    Thanks All.

    Afraid I don't know of anywhere in Galway. For some reason Theravadan Buddhism seems a bit thin on the ground in Ireland unfortunately. There is a centre in Clare though that's connected with it, visited it once, it's a lovely spot, and they have regular courses and retreats, they might know of people in Galway: Sunyata.

    There are Vipassana retreats in Ireland too-it seems to get classified as Theravadan (excuse my ignorance if this is wrong any Theravadan practitioners): Vipassana

    Hope that helps
