You helped me separate from a terrible physical pain and it worked! I said to myself, "This pain is not me, I observe this pain." And suddenly the pain was 1/10 less intense. Thank you!

[@sarthak268]

😊

[@niroshandesilva1281]

I experienced a similar experience years back and I thought in the same manner due to the compassion meditation mind set that I practiced from a book written by the Great teacher of this Thero (Ven. Kiribathgoda Gnananda Thero, founder of Mahamevnawa Meditation Center).

[@mindethereal6627]

Physical pain is aggravated by psychological fear at the same time. We are a small universe in ourselves, and due to our own reasons, the universe in our body cannot communicate with the outer universe. The five elements of the body, water, wood, gold, fire, earth five elements of disharmony caused by internal organs and organs of the disease, only to repair the balance of the five elements, the disease will be far away from us, the spiritual dimension is only a part of the physical substance, if there is no physical body, the spirit of the spirit of how to reside in the physical body, only to cultivate the physical body and the spirit of the spirit of the spirit of purity to stimulate the potential within the physical body, in order to heal the imbalance of the physical body!

Very helpful.you explain things beautifully. Love to listen to you. Thank you from USA.

[@Hellomoon444]

Today is New Year’s Eve in KST and I am alone but, I feel at peace. I know that the alone feeling is not forever. Nothing is permanent. And I know this alone time is a gift from the world and a break from the turmoil of the years. I can finally reflect on the year and meditate in peace. Solitude is peaceful. Maybe it’s because this year I allowed myself to finally experience Vipassina. I also finally let myself experience sitting. I was always on the go and moving everywhere I needed to go. Very impulsive. One day I realize…what is the rush? Everything will be fixed when it needs to. Not being lazy but stop forcing stuff to happen. It’s been a big change. May everyone who is also spending the New Years alone realize that…everything ends. Nothing is permanent. Even loneliness can end. Be mindful and know what you want and deserve then move forward. Sending you love. 🙏🏻✨🌙 Happy new year~ 2024 will be full of experiences. : )

[@mihirani]

How clear How wonderful How nice 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Ven...thero......

[@Mysoi123]

I myself believe that Buddha achieved enlightenment during Vipassana practice and not through deep meditation. One more reason to practice Vipassana is that, unlike other types of meditation, you can practice Vipassana in every situation-while working, relaxing, playing games, and more. Additionally, you can do it in all places; it doesn't limit you to one specific location. This allows us to experience more in life. The more we experience, the more we learn, and eventually, it can lead to enlightenment.

[@nimeshaperera8819]

Try sathipaththana Vipassana meditation courses, they really helped me a lot

[@sonderexpeditions]

I love Vipassana. Improved my life immensely. I did a silence retreat and 100% recommend. I meditate about an hour a day since my last refresher course. Zoom group sits and in person group sits are what keeps me motivated.

[@shashi.354]

How yo do group meditation on zoom app

[@sonderexpeditions]

@@shashi.354 are you an old student? They have links you can join, play a 1 hour 5 minute Goenka recording and typically tell us how many others joined at the end. Plus we can ask questions afterwards. I did one over Instagram last night with a girl from my cohort too. It's a great way to be accountable in your practice 😊

[@crystaldance5731]

[@NEXUSOOI]

Having grace of being able to sit for few 10 days vipassana course really a Life changing experience compared to other Meditation. •guided, well structured overall •Takes you in Real DEEP •Transferrable to daily life •Free accomodation, food and facilities. Private room with shower, bed, meditation seat etc •like a vacation over a week but this can benefit you, your lineages and others around you •Ground you in Equanimity, harmony and peace. Helps with ASCENSION! I highly Recommend This Technique and method of going about the meditation overall. No phones, no talking, fully focused inward towards Innerstanding and Inner connection with highest truth. Book a 10 days course at any centre nearby you now!
