Meditation Program
The process involves self purification by self observation. You begin by observing your natural course of breathing and mind concentration. Gradually your self awareness begins to sharpen and you can proceed to observe the changing nature of mind and body as you experience the universal truths of impermanence, suffering and egolessness. Vipassana aims at the highest spiritual goal of total liberation and full enlightenment.
