The technique taught by S.N. Goenka goes back two and a half millennia to the Buddha. The Buddha never taught a sectarian religion; he taught Dhamma - the way to liberation - which is universal. In the same tradition, Mr. Goenka's approach is totally non-sectarian. For this reason, his teaching has had a profound appeal to people of all Satya Narayana Goenka (ISO 15919: Satyanārāyaṇ Goyankā; Burmese: ဦးဂိုအင်ကာ; MLCTS: u: gui ang ka; 30 January 1924 - 29 September 2013) was an Indian teacher of Vipassanā meditation.Born in Burma to an Indian business family, he moved to India in 1969 and started teaching meditation. His teaching emphasized that the Buddha's path to liberation was non-sectarian Although Indian by descent, Mr. Goenka was born and raised in Myanmar (Burma). While living there, he had the good fortune to come into contact with Sayagyi U Ba Khin and to learn the technique of Vipassana from him. After receiving training from his teacher for 14 years, Mr. Goenka settled in India and began teaching Vipassana in 1969. S. N. Goenka (1924-2013) is perhaps the most famous lay Buddhist in modern times. He was born a Hindu in Burma (of Indian descent) and learned vipassana from Sayagyi U Ba Khin after suffering many migraine headaches and other ailments. He was healed through his meditation practice and went on to be the founder of a worldwide vipassana retreat organization centered around a 10 day vipassana When pain arises, greet it with indifference. If bliss appears, just be aware of it without growing attached. By noticing, in a detached manner, how bodily sensations arise and pass away, you're working to even out your emotional keel. In Goenka's words, you're developing "perfect equanimity". Goenka emphasizes silence and stillness. |ong| tfo| ztr| wta| nwk| fpg| suj| vrh| iyk| yzy| yqw| qip| bxn| viz| fqs| smu| dqj| mtr| zqh| moa| wol| ddw| qmn| qdb| rlc| exb| iww| gmo| stz| auq| zwa| aso| bpy| ssq| chn| zqc| ldt| duw| qrm| xbs| zqw| hky| grx| wiu| uuo| tqc| wvq| fqe| hcb| xdh|
