Diary of a Buddhist Yogi: Vipassana Meditation Retreat

By Dhammaloka Viriya

Liberation from the cycle of rebirth comes from the Awakening of the Truths. To be awakened, one needs to practice Mindfulness Meditation by relinquishing the 6 senses, which will eradicate the clinging to all phenomena, before the Dhamma eventually reveals itself to the practitioner. Once the practitioner caught glimpse of the Dhamma through direct knowledge, the practitioner would know there was no more turning back to this mundane world.

The Buddha pointed out a way to end suffering through Mindfulness (Sati) practice and many practitioners since the Buddha's time have benefitted from it. However, in the author's observation, though practitioners in this age find the practice fulfilling, they did not experience the awakening moment and hence do not see the fruition as much as they hope to.

What are the challenges of an intensive Vipassana meditation retreat? What takes a practitioner to be able to experience the bliss from meditation? What do the practitioner experience when the Dhamma eventually appear as direct knowledge?

Find out in this book the first-hand experience of a yogi who went through the trials and tribulations of a Vipassana Meditation retreat at a forest monastery and see for himself the Truth of Non-Self and the other Universal Truths in a life-changing experience.
