meditation music for healing
Vipassanā (Pāli) or vipaśyanā (Sanskrit), “insight,” is prajñā “insight into the true nature of reality”, defined as anicca “impermanence”, dukkha “suffering, unsatisfactoriness”, anattā “non-self”, the three marks of existence in the Theravada tradition, and as śūnyatā “emptiness” and Buddha-nature in the Mahayana traditions.
Meditation practice in the Theravada tradition ended in the 10th century but was reintroduced in Toungoo and Konbaung Burma in the 18th century, based on contemporary readings of the Satipaṭṭhāna sutta, the Visuddhimagga, and other texts. A new tradition developed in the 19th and 20th centuries, centering on bare insight in conjunction with Samatha. It became of central importance in the 20th-century Vipassanā movement as developed by Ledi Sayadaw and U Vimala and popularized by Mahasi Sayadaw, V. R. Dhiravamsa, and S. N. Goenka. In modern Theravada, the combination or disjunction of vipassanā and Samatha is a matter of dispute. While the Pali sutras hardly mention vipassanā, describing it as a mental quality alongside with Samatha which develop in tandem and lead to liberation, the Abhidhamma Pitaka and the commentaries describe Samatha and vipassanā as two separate meditation techniques. The Vipassanā movement favors vipassanā over Samatha, but critics point out that both are necessary elements of the Buddhist training.see more at WikipediaCheck More at http://workout.vydio-x.com/
