What is Vipassana Meditation?

Vipassana is a Pali word formed by combining two words, Vi and Passana. Vi means in a special way or various ways and Passana is to see. The term Vipassana can be best explained in such a way as to have penetrating insight or understanding into the true nature of the physical and mental phenomena in this world; impermanence, dissatisfaction and selflessness.

Vipassana meditation utilizes the principle of mindfulness of body, feeling, mind and mind-object as a method of mind training that leads to enlightenment. It is a simple and skilful method which brings great benefit to one who practices it.
