Great reflections and some of your music was a proper practice for equinimity for me 😅

I too had audio hallucinations-all of a sudden I had The Jackson 5 Goin Places full volume in my head ! 🤷‍♂️

Thank you. I have been doing anapanasati since many years. Just wanted to add that in real practical life be careful what you feed your mind. Feed trash and trash will come out. Avoid comparing yourself with others, avoid storing bottled up emotions, reduce watching negative social media-fake news channels and avoid constipation as it affects the mind. Best wishes--Counsellor.

3 meals? Only 2 when I went in Ontario Canada.

Thank you. Need to really master the mind to calm depression since child hood. I am from Kathmandu. There are three centers around my home city. Trying to learn and reach out to them. Applications are always full. Hope I get lucky someday. Practice Vipassana.

"When thoughts arise, let them fall away." What if they don't?

Thanks for the video. A suggestion though, turn down the volume of the music in future videos.

Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu Be all the people of world,May all beings be Happy 😊 Be Peaceful ,Be Compassionate, Be liberated liberated liberated ...Be Happy 😊

Nice video

How are you doing today Keith? Do you still meditate daily or feel the effects from your journey?

do they have cushions and chairs at retreats?

Did you get to any truth about yourself/ your illusional ego, from the moments of meditation when you are in the now, with out thought ? Something more concrete. I just want to know, cause I know that meditation can calm you down and get you more energy. I have experienced that. But thats not really development just more of tendensy to be more calm.

Yeah, beautiful explanation of Vipassana, thank you 🙏 Now let's continue to meditate daily and put into practice in our lives what it teaches us: equanimity, love, compassion. Just to be a good human being, not harming others and help whenever needed ❣️

Hi it is a verry good informative video but bc of loud music and your voice sound verry low so hard to understand everything if possible could you please make same kind of video again. I know it's sound little bit sealy but thanks for the hard work and help people

Thanks for sharing your experience and information! Just what I needed

Nice video, the Essence of Vipassana well explained. Be happy...

The sense of I Am, that not it, forget about I AM, then you stay there, the absolute。

Thank you for this beautiful and inspirational video!

Om Sabbe Satta Bhavantu Sukhi Tata! May all beings being happy! The Dharmapada,"How good it is to rein the mind,Which is unruly,capricious,rushing wherever it pleases. The mind so harnessed will bring one happiness."Thank you for this edifying testimony. Peace.

Music is tooo loud. Hard to heard the narration.

Thank you very inspiring - just what I needed to hear today. Stay blessed and strong!,,🙏

I tried a ten day vipassana retreat once, and i left after the third day in tears. I was really upset. Not from what the meditation was bringing up though. The dorm that i was sleeping in was a pitch black hot box. And i am claustrophobic. And the people that I was sharing the dorm with basically ganged up on me because i kept opening a window to let in a bit of moonlight and air. They were not very tolerant or compassionate people. I didnt feel included or welcomed. And they suceeded in getting rid of me so they could have that window closed. Kinda petty ah. On the last day i had to stay outside all night in the forest, in the cold because i had no where else to go. Therefore i didnt sleep all night and I was a emotional mess. In this state there was no way that i could continue applying the method because i was over tired and couldnt focus. So i left, devastated. It took me a while to recover from this experience because i was quite traumatised from it. I would never go back to that place ever again. But i learnt something, if i went to a retreat somewhere else, i would check out the accommodation first. I think you have to have the right kind of environment at the retreat for the method to work.

Background music is loud and disturbing..

It's 2018... how are u faring?

Music is loud...cldnt hear

I've done 10 day Vipassana sits many times. In between those times I've researched the technique deeply both from an historical and a current point of view. I've spoken to many students and teachers and quite a few speak of the difficulty with the forced posture and attention. Many teachers speak of how the technique actually increases tension in anxious participants but when they added deep relaxation techniques this alleviated the problem. Not many people realise that "equanimity" is the original word for "relaxation" and "samscaras" (this word is spelt 4 different ways btw) is the original word for "tension". So Vipassana is actually an old technique for releasing tension. Modern deep relaxation methods such as Progressive Muscle Relaxation will accomplish the same goal as Vipassana without the dogmatic adherence to behaviour. When the body is deeply relaxed the mind is more likely to follow. If peace of mind and internal freedom is your goal then deep relaxation techniques may serve you better.

wait so as of now you still cant have sex or a girlfriend because of that vow?

thank you so much.you have explained very well about your experience.budusaranai.

Very good video I have seen . Title is correct " Vipassana - See things as they are".

U r best Story Teller Bro..very nice ..Mangal Ho.Be happy.meditate

Sitters,WE LOVE TO SUFFER,(BECAUSE WE KNOW IT,S CONSTANTLY CHANGING)

Yes, I think I could abstain from killing anyone for 10 days, but precept 5 might be a bit of a stretch.

The music is too daunting dudee

beautiful video on the essence of Vipassana. Thank you <3

SAdhu, Sadhu, Sadhu. Hope you have progressed in your meditation practice

Great video. Thank you.

Thank you for the video. I am trying to decide on a “bench” or a cushion for my retreat. Anyone have an opinion?

Great video. Thank you!

Great video. Anyone watching this don't attempt to practice without attending a course

Wow, such a great summary and video, thank you. I am doing my first vipassana in October and as scared as I am, I cannot wait.

This is a good video explaining vipassana meditation and a great deal of work has been put in making editing it but it unfortunately has some verry annoying and unclear audio that is at times so loud that it gets diffecult to understand the narater. Especially on a cell phone and with my ears 👂 tat have 50 years of mileage. And please loose the volume on the church bell. Please consider this feedback and I will meditate while I rewatch to find peace with it

It is so interesting how you describe, Unfortunately, some passage i couldn't hear, the music is too loud.

I experiences so much pain, incredible spasms and found sitting painful. Maybe that was my way of rebelling. Afterwards I was way to sensitive to everyday life.

Subscribed. One of best video.

"Harmony is the realization that all sensations are temporary, and is found in watching them pass instead of chasing the highs and running from the lows." Beautifully put. 👍

Why bad background music?

How much environmental stress every "enlightened" teachers/philosophers/scientist had in their lifetime? Maybe we all need stress, just to learn how to let it go. Ego, our personal way to experience/sense the living environment, makes us believe that what we think is the ultimate truth. It's the only thing, what limits our mind. Our brains reflects our environment. There are almost 8 billion ways to react to nature. And those are just our species way. How about other species? They react too. If we look for meaning of life, how about realising the causal effect. From our earliest ancestors to this day. Who/ what phenomena taught the ways we comprehend the environment? What was their cause of thinking/ reacting? ...just a thought. Nothing more or less.

If you ate meat as lunch/dinner from that retreat, bought from some supermarket, does that mean you've paid someone to kill, chop and pack that animal meat for you eat? That defeats the code of abstaining from killing any beings =/

Will vipassana help with a marijuana addiction?
