Michael Lawrence Dini (born 1954, Oakland, California) is a professor of biology at Texas Tech University. He received his PhD from University of Notre Dame and completed his B.S. in Biology from Saint Mary's College of California.

In 2003 Dini became the focus of criticism when he refused to write letters of recommendation for students who failed to either make an "A" in the course, or write a scientific response to the Theory of Evolution.[1] He had a lawsuit brought against him (by a student who never asked for his recommendation) and later agreed to change the wording in his letter of recommendation criteria. However, his third criterion for obtaining a letter of recommendation still states, "If you set up an appointment to discuss the writing of a letter of recommendation, I will ask you: 'How do you account for the scientific origin of the human species?' If you will not give a scientific answer to this question, then you should not seek my recommendation." According to Answers in Genesis, this criterion heavily references evolution.[2] Dr. Dini explains his practice thus: "Scientists do not base their acceptance or rejection of theories on religion, and someone who does should not be able to become a scientist."[3]

Vipassana Meditation Organisation

This request for creation has been declined. Please do not modify it.

This request for creation has been reviewed. The reviewer comments appear below the article text.

If you want to make changes and try again, copy and paste your article into a new submission and make your changes there.

The 'Vipassana Meditation Organisation',(pronounced as Vi-pashya-naa, is an organisation set up and funded by S. N. Goenka in 1969 which claims to teach a form of Buddhist 'meditation' in 10-day retreats held throughout the world [1].

The 'Vipassana Meditation Organisation' was set up in in India in 1969, where Buddhism and Hindu mysticism attracted many young people from advanced Industrial nations, especially that of the US, confused with their identity in an increasingly competitive society, to 'find themselves' and experience some form of wisdom (Pountain and Robins 2000). The organisation could then afford to expand itself in the early 1970s into the lucrative Western world, reaching increased concentrations where rural land was cheap, especially Australia (Stark and Bainbridge 1985).

Vipassana is a Pali word meaning special (pi) observation (passana) (Singh 2007).

As taught by Mr Goenka via audio and videotape with an 'assistant teacher' attending the course, the meditation technique is taught in special centers or rented and modified facilities (Singh 2007). The retreat involves observation of the breath and bodily sensations over a ten day period (Singh 2007)

Mr Goenka was born in Burma and learned this technique from his teacher, Sayagyi U Ba Khin, whom he came across while seeking a cure for his troublesome migraine (Singh 2007).

Mr Goenka spent fourteen years with Mr U Ba Khin and became a Vipassana teacher himself. It was U Ba Khin's wish to go to India to teach and propagate Vipassana in its country of origin but he could not fulfill his dream. Mr Goenka, was however, able to go to India and started teaching Vipassana. After many years, as the technique became popular, centers were established in various parts of India and abroad. The headquarters of the Vipassana movement is Igatpuri, province near Bombay (Singh 2007).

The centers run retreats from 12 days to more than two months (Singh 2007)

Courses

In order to be initiated, beginners have to attend ten days of seventeen hours of meditation per day in a meditation hall within a few meters of other attendees in absolute silence. Tapes are played where S. N. Goenka chants mystical passages in Pali and Hindi at the end, sometimes during, and at the end of meditation periods. All reading, writing and mobile phones are banned, participants are separated by gender teh entirety of the retreat and little if any of the opposite sex. Despite claims to the contrary, very few beginners are allowed the privacy of their own rooms during the periods for meditation.

Once an 'old student', ie. you have finished one ten-day course, you may serve food and conduct utilities on other course, and attended shorter one-day and three-day courses, however, initiates are expected to attend one ten-day course of the same format every year, and attend group meditation every week, and meditate for two hours every single day. Old students are not allowed meals in the evening and have to drink lemon water.

The daily timetable is as follows:

0400 Wake up bell 0430 - 0630 Meditation in the meditation hall (MH) or at one's own residential quarters (RQ)
0630 - 0800 Bath and Breakfast
0800 - 0900 Group meditation (GM) in MH
0900 - 1100 Meditation in MH or at RQ
1100 - 1300 Lunch and Rest, or meet with the teacher
1300 - 1430 Meditation in MH or at RQ
1430 - 1530 GM in MH
1530 - 1700 Meditation in MH or at RQ
1700 - 1800 Tea break
1800 - 1900 GM in MH
1900 - 2030 Discourse
2030 - 2100 Meditation in MH
2100 - 2130 Meet with the teacher
2200 Lights out

The weekly timetable is as follows:

8pm Day Zero: Retreat starts
8pm Day Zero - 3pm Day Four: Anapana meditation (choiceless observation of the breath)
3pm Day 4 - 9am Day 10: Vipassana meditation (equanimous observation of bodily sensations)
9am Day 10 - 10am Day 10: Metta meditation (sharing one's merit and goodwill), silence ends
4.30am Day 11 - 6.30am Day 11: Final discourse and Metta, Retreat ends

This effectively means participants have only five and a half hours sleep for ten days in a row, the equivalence of having a chronic blood-alcohol content of 0.5 [2]. Some researchers have claim this chronic Sleep deprivation, painful initiation process, banning of communication and constant chanting is common to many other organisations which function as Cults (Aron 1999, Abgrall 2000).

Participants will have to learn to sit still in a hall of other people in silence for seventeen hours a day without talking, this exerts extreme pain on the legs, and many have to sit in chairs by the end of the ten days (Singh 2007).

Controversy

The 'Vipassana Meditation Organisation' does not register itself as an entity, except through the character who funds and runs the organisation S. N. Goenka. This has led to accusations that this works to keep it unaccountable for any activities it may engage in. There is currently no 'Vipassana Meditation Organisation' website on wikipedia and it is no longer appropriate to keep Mr Goenka's site the only available source of information regarding it's activities. On Sunday 20th of February 2005, a documentary was released by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation Compass which documented three beginners practicing the 'Vipassana Technique' under Mr. Goenka. Serious allegations were made by a clinical psychologist that these Vipassana courses have resulted in mental illness and increase in general distress in a significant number of attendees who have been forced to seek out clinical intervention [3].

He never drives people in his car, it is thought that he doesnt want people to smell the vile stench of his victims that he stores in his boot.

Established in 1941, the primary goal of the Defense Base Act was to cover workers on military bases outside the United States. The act was amended to include public works contracts with the government for the building of non-military projects such as dams, schools, harbors, and roads abroad. A further amendment added a vast array of enterprises revolving around the national security of the United States and its allies. Today, almost any contract with an agency of the U.S. government, for work outside the U.S., whether military in nature or not, will likely require Defense Base Act coverage.

Who Requires DBA Coverage?

1. Any employee working on a military base or reservation outside the U.S.

2. Any employee engaged in U.S. government funded public works business outside the U.S.

3. Any employee engaged in a public works or military contract with a foreign government which has been deemed necessary to U.S. National Security.

4. Those employees that provide services funded by the U.S. government outside the realm of regular military issue or channels.

5. Any employees of any sub-contractors of the prime or letting contractor involved in a contract like numbers 1-4 above.

What are the consequences of not carrying DBA Coverage?

Failure to obtain DBA insurance carries stiff penalties. All government contracts contain a provision that requires bidding contractors to obtain necessary insurance. Failure to do so will result in fines and possible loss of contract. The additional and most severe penalty is that employers without DBA coverage are subject to suits under common law, wherein common law defenses are waived. In other words, the claimants or their heirs need only file suit and do not have to prove negligence. Lastly, all claims may be brought in Federal Court and are against the insured directly.
