Gaea Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Vipassana requires that you put to rest all other practices so that you give it a fair chance (words of Goenka in his video) - well, at least when you're in camp anyway. I found it incredibly useful for peace of mind though. There is no doubt that my temper, lust, lack of awareness and love all contribute to a mental block that hinder progress. Vipassana definitely helped me with this. I think there's no harm, but it depends on your personal goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaea Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 oh and of course - you can practice love for God via chanting in ANY condition that's the beauty of it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
