Happy Birthday Insight Meditation Center!

Today is also the birthday of The Insight Meditation Center in Barre, MA.

That is Sharon Salzberg's base and she and others founded it today 36th years ago.

I am not absolutely sure about this but I think that's where one of my favorite political writers Robert Wright did a meditation retreat, which he hilariously wrote up for the New York Times in 2009 (it's really funny), and which I highlighted here.  He recently landed a blog at The Atlantic.  He hasn't written about meditation there.  Yet.

Vipassana meditation is something good and help us be mindful all day as well increase our wisdom. I met a guru who practice for over 30years, he is Venerable Vimokkha and did share his teaching in MP3 files in my blog. Free download and learn the vipassana meditation technique at:
