    Dear Alpa,

    A very nice write up with full details:thumbsup. Any form of meditation is very relaxing. Though i am not into any type , vippassana seems a bit tough to practice, but with the commitment to practice daily, am sure nothing is impossible. The peace & Joy you must have felt at the end of the course must be worth all the wait. I can say that a bit of it has entered into me.

    I too feel i should atleast start off with pranayama.

    Revathi

    My dear revathis,
    Thank you so much for stepping in. i too was like you never liked to meditate but after passing through this wonderful experience i feel so good about myself, mentaly i feel calm, i am not doing anything in a hurry or rushing into anything, i am just taking everything so calmly.
    The room that we all were meditating was full of positive energies and it really feels greart ot be at peace and joy.
    I am going for another sitting next year the same 10day one.
    with metta
    alpa:cheers

    My dearest alpha...
    Wonderful experince... thanks for sharing with us... it really gives me a special boost to do mediation daily without fail... i learnt with so much of interest during my college days and do regularly... now with kid slowly i'm finding blame excuse and skipping... but your snippet has given me new energy to start it again without skipping... you are really lucky to participate for 10 days sure it would have given you lots of peace and patience... even i learnt so much through that... its beyond words...

    thank you so much for sharing with us dearie...

    sending you big hugs...

    WOW WOW....Dear Alpa !!!!!!!!
    I am a late entry here......but am glad I din't miss it !! How could I miss Alpa's frist post ?! And look, your thread has gone four pages in just a day !! Congrats on that !!

    It is so very sweet of you to share with us your experience.... and ionspire many here !! Glad for you, you enjoyed a lot. I have done something very similar, it was from Art of living..... meditation in silence, and when I got back home, I felt so cleansed, I could feel the glow that everyone talked about me ! And believe me, my DH used to get annoyed seeing that nothing could upset me or afffect me !!

    May you always carry this shine and life with you !! and spread it too !!
    love

    Dear alpa,

    Enjoyed reading your snippet, very well explained on how things are done in the meditation centre... good for you.. :) After reading your article am also tempted to try meditation..

    It requires a lot of patience to stay silent for 11 days.. :bowdown

    Take care
    hugs
    niv
