Texas Dharma Communities

Dallas Insight Sangha values its connections with other Insight Meditation communities throughout Texas. Although each sangha serves its own community, we share a commitment to the teachings of the Buddha, the cultivation of mindfulness and wisdom, and the support of sincere Dharma practice.

These relationships offer opportunities for practitioners to discover additional teachings, retreats, and communities of practice. We are pleased to share the following Texas sanghas as resources for those wishing to deepen their practice and connect with the wider Insight Meditation community.

Austin Insight Meditation

Austin Insight Meditation, also known as Mariposa Sangha, supports the practice of Vipassanā and the study of the Buddha’s teachings in Austin and Central Texas. The community offers regular meditation gatherings, Dharma talks, classes, daylong programs, and residential retreats. With opportunities to practice both in person and online, Austin Insight Meditation welcomes newcomers and experienced practitioners alike.

Insight Meditation Houston

Insight Meditation Houston is an established Dharma community that has supported Vipassanā practice in the Houston area since 1980. Rooted in the Theravāda tradition, the sangha offers weekly meditation gatherings, Dharma teachings, and opportunities for retreat practice. Its programs emphasize the development of mindfulness, wisdom, and compassion, with teachings freely offered in the spirit of generosity. Practitioners of all experience levels are welcome.

Through shared practice and connection with Dharma communities, cultivate wisdom and compassion, and support one another on the path.
