Vipassanā bhavana training, a form of meditation practice, positively affects self-control (samvara) among students at the Kusalamitra Buddhist Pasastrian in Gunungkidul, an institution providing non-formal religious education. The training accounted for 55% of the variance in self-control, with the remaining 45% attributable to other factors. The study involved 44 students and used quantitative methods to examine the relationship between meditation practice and self-regulation. Some students were diligent in practicing vipassanā bhavana, while others were not, and some lacked good self-control.
