- Ratmalkanda Meditation Centre established in Oct 2006 offers instructions on Vipassana Meditation in the traditions of Ven Mahasi Sayadaw of Burma.The centre is under the direction of Rev. M. Upali Thero, a pupil of Ven. Sumathipala Thera.
- Rev. Upali has 30 years of experience in the practice of VIPASSANA MEDITATION and was the former Head of the Kanduboda Meditation Centre. He was a former science teacher and a visiting lecturer of Buddhist philosophy at the Kelaniya University in 1999.
- The centre is situated in a beautiful setting in an isolated village in Ella. Nestling amidst the lushes tea bushes, coniferous pine wood and the green rolling hills, it is a veritable paradise that offers a mystical and serene atmosphere for the meditator. The mist clad Namunukula mountain range adds to the beauty of the panoramic view.

Namaste,
i am in sri lanka, spend here some month. I am a vipassana meditator for many years but some times a slide down and out, after up and in – this is ok for me – but this time i feel i am ready to enjoy YOUR canter with YOUR wisdom.
I move in my life just by signs, messages – i just “happen” somewhere – and i met with a young german lady in these days who was talking about your center with very good feelings.
I will be free from february so please give me some information about your courses or any possibilities…

I am writing from Canada, to inquire on the possibility of my being a participant in a long-term Meditation retreat, with your guidance, at the Ratmalkanda Meditation Centre, I am a meditation practitioner whose initial Vipassana practice was at the Kanduboda Meditation centre under your guidance. Since then , I have been to two Vipassana Meditation Retreats in Canada and the USA.
You may recall me as a close friend of the late Gamini Madawala.
Since my professional retirement in 2015, I have been actively involved in Buddhist spiritual activities. I will be visiting Sri lanka in September and wish to meet you in the Rathmalkanda Meditation centre. I am very keen on attending a Vipassana Retreat with your guidance.
Please let me know of the dates when Meditation Retreat are held at yoru Centre.
My Humble Veneration and Best Wishes to you.
