Summary

A full-length study of the teaching of S. N. Goenka, prepared under his guidance and with his approval. Useful for meditators and non-meditators alike. This was the first book to appear in English that accurately describes the practice of Vipassana at length for the general listener. It includes stories by Goenkaji, as well as answers to students’ questions that convey a vivid sense of his teaching.

Excellent 🧘

I really enjoyed this book as an introduction to vipassana meditation. The author who narrates, has a calming voice and is a pleasure to listen to. The stories in between are pleasing, yet sometimes difficult to understand due to accent.
