is one of India's most ancient meditation technique. It was discovered by Gotama the Buddha more than 2500 years
ago. Vipassana means - seeing things as they really are. It is the process of self-purification by self
observation. One begins by observing the natural breath to concentrate the mind. With sharpened awareness, one
proceeds to observe the changing nature of body and mind, and experiences the universal truths of impermanence,
suffering and egolessness. This truth realization by direct experience is the process of purification.
Be aware, the entire path (Dhamma) is a universal remedy for universal problems and has nothing to do with any
organized religion or sectarianism. For this reason, it can be practiced freely by everyone, at any time, in any
place, without conflict due to race, community or religion, and it will prove equally beneficial to one and all.
