<p>Is there any school or institution dedicated to teaching Jhana?</p>

<p>Teaching "Jhana" means:</p>

<ol>
<li>Accepting students to learn only about Jhana</li>
<li>Proper courses and guidelines for student: step by step, from first Rupa Jhana to Four Arupa Jhanas, in Theravada Buddhist teachings (see <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhy%C4%81na_in_Buddhism" rel="nofollow">Dhyāna in Buddhism</a>)</li>
</ol>

<p>It could be a monastery or public institution or school, which people can join by paying fees or free; but well disciplined and helping students to experience and acquire the capabilities to enter the state of various Jhanas above. </p>

<p>Are there any printed courses or lectures about entering Jhanas, published by such a school or institution (or by an author at least)?</p>

Is there any school or institution dedicated to teaching Jhana?

Teaching "Jhana" means:

1. Accepting students to learn only about Jhana
2. Proper courses and guidelines for student: step by step, from first Rupa Jhana to Four Arupa Jhanas, in Theravada Buddhist teachings (see [Dhyāna in Buddhism](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhy%C4%81na_in_Buddhism))

It could be a monastery or public institution or school, which people can join by paying fees or free; but well disciplined and helping students to experience and acquire the capabilities to enter the state of various Jhanas above.

Are there any printed courses or lectures about entering Jhanas, published by such a school or institution (or by an author at least)?
