<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The Ancient Meditation Technique that Brings Real Peace of Mind<p>Vipassand-bhavand, the development of insight, embodies the essence of the teaching of the Buddha. As taught by S. N. Goenka, this path to self-awareness is extraordinary in its simplicity, its lack of dogma and, above all, its results. The Vipassana technique can be successfully applied by anyone.</p><p>Based on the lectures and writings of S. N. Goenka--and prepared under his direct guidance--<em>The Art of Living</em> shows how this technique can be used to solve problems, develop unused potential, and lead a peaceful, productive life. It includes stories by S. N. Goenka, as well as answers to students' questions, that convey a vivid sense of his teaching.</p><p>S. N. Goenka's Vipassana courses have attracted thousands of people of every background. Unique among teachers of meditation, Goenka is a retired industrialist and former leader of the Indian Community in Burma. Although a layman, his teaching has won the approval of senior Buddhist monks in Burma, India, and Sri Lanka, a number of whom have taken courses under his guidance. Despite his magnetism, he has no wish to be a guru --instead he teaches self-responsibility. This is the first systematic study of his teachings to appear in English.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Vipassana-bhavana, 'the development of insight, ' embodies the essence of the teaching of the Buddha.
