S.N. Goenka (1924-2013), the renowned teacher of Vipassana meditation, undertook an extensive teaching tour of North America and Europe in 2002. This documentary originally made for Dutch television includes his address to business leaders at a New York City conference, talks at the Belgian Vipassana Center, and interviews with practitioners who described the benefits of Vipassana.
Every year more than 100,000 people attend Mr. Goenka’s 10-day courses in Vipassana. This ancient technique continues as a modern tool for transformation. Taught around the world as a non-sectarian practice, people from all walks of life–executives, government officials, clergy, students, homemakers, inmates—learn and benefit from Vipassana.
