38. What I Learned From My Vipassana
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 лип 2023
- Vipassana is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation that is now taught all around the world. To learn the technique, you are required to dedicate 10 days in one Vipassana centres around the world and adhere to some precepts such as noble silence. I learned a lot of valuable lessons about myself and life in this experience. Today, I'm sharing a few of those lessons. I would encourage everyone to learn Vipassana if it feels right and calls out to you. It was something that sounded crazy to me when I first heard about it but one day it just felt right and I went with it. It is one of the most transformative experiences of my life and I'm grateful that it is freely available for anyone who wants to learn.

Sounds like you had a good course and really understand how to work properly
As old students we always love to hear the retelling of the first 10 day course of vipassana . Thankyou for sharing & congratulations 🙂An enjoyable explaination , summary and description. Everything is so pure and wholesome about this practice, so grateful to the 'Buddah' and all that have passed it forward

Very informative video. Thank you! I am doing my first 10 day Vipassana in two weeks time :-)
Thank you! ❤
You're welcome 😊
Thank you for sharing! I went to Vipassana 20 years ago. I experienced a lot of freedom but unfortunately did not practise. I'm intending to go again in April this year.
Thanks for sharing your experience! I attended a short course again one year after my first Vipassana and found it quite challenging to be fully present. I would recommend if going again to do another 10 day if you have not been practicing. All the best!
Thankful
Thank you for this video. It has been beneficial. Looking forward to doing mine.
Thank you for your comment! Glad it was helpful!
Great video. I was a bit hesitant about doing this retreat, but you make me really want to go now!! Thanks a lot 🧡 hope you’re having a wonderful week!
Thanks for your comment! It certainly isn't like a retreat where you might expect it to be relaxing and a getaway. It's a lot of work but incredibly valuable!
Hey Amanda,
I'm so curious of Vissapana and im so happy that you'd share your experience about this! Great blog all the way from Philippines 🇵🇭 ❤
You just try to watch every breath without missing any.
Hi Adrianne! Thank you for your comment and I'm so happy to share my experience. Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this video. I couldn’t watch all the way through. as I see, it is kind of a spoiler alert. Although I may experience it differently. I do in fact, plan to do this Vipassana on my up and coming journey. Nevertheless, I’m definitely going to check out more of of your videos as I am intrigued to do so. Many thanks and Namaste.
Thanks you Amanda for sharing. I have a question How long does it take to sit still for the vipassana?
One question, are you practising vi passana at your home now ? If so how many hours every day
I did 10 days last year. Did it help me? Ask me. 😊
How did it help?
Can we do that in home? Like some variation of it
I heard if you eat non veg and do vipassana at same time effect is not that good bec on one side ur consuming animal and on other sude trying to purify your thoughts...das y no non veg is served for ten days
There are 5 precepts you undertake for the duration of the course when you attend:
to abstain from killing any being
to abstain from stealing
to abstain from all sexual activity
to abstain from telling lies
to abstain from all intoxicants.
I attended Vipassana as part of Dhamma so food is provided for and it's all vegetarian!
@@selfwithamanda ...oh ok....dat answers the question
@@Balancedtrader007Tibetan Buddhists eat meat.
After this, life becomes “meaningless” because there is no more desire.
Ha Ha very funny or are you serious? If you’re serious then you totally misunderstood what Vipassana is. Yes you loose the desire to do bad things and get inspired to be a positive human being
@@damianv8200 How you know for sure? You have done it before?
A yOUTUBE CHANNEL CALLED SELF TALKING ABOUT A PHILSOPHY CALLED bUDDHISM WHICH DECLARES THERE IS NO SELF.....THE IRONY
Thanks for your comment. Vipassana is a technique of meditation and means to see things as they really are. It is indeed possible for us to open our minds and consider teachings, philosophies and other ideologies without having to buy into the religious doctrine. It is also possible to see and understand the value of Vipassana without having to practice Buddhism or agree with everything it teaches.
@@selfwithamanda Of course I know. I just couldn't resist that joke.
