About this app

This is the official Dhamma.org android mobile App for Vipassana Meditation as taught by S.N. Goenka in the tradition of Sayagyi U Ba Khin.

Vipassana Meditation
Vipassana, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation. It was taught in India more than 2500 years ago as a universal remedy for universal ills, an Art of Living. Vipassana is the process of self-purification by self-observation. One begins by observing the natural breath to concentrate the mind. Then, with a sharpened awareness, one proceeds to observe the changing nature of body and mind and experiences the universal truths of impermanence, suffering and egolessness. This truth-realization by direct experience results in mental purification.

Courses
The technique of Vipassana Meditation is taught at 10-day residential courses during which participants learn the basics of the method, and practice sufficiently to experience its beneficial results. There are no charges for the courses - not even to cover the cost of food and accommodation. All expenses are met by donations from people who, having completed a course and experienced the benefits of Vipassana, wish to give others the opportunity to also benefit.

Locations
Courses are given in numerous Meditation Centers and at Non-Center course locations. Each location has its own schedule of courses. In most cases, an application for admission to these courses can be completed online using this App. There are numerous Centers currently in operation and more in development around the world, including Africa, Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania.

What a wonderful app! It's like having SN Goenka in your pocket and on demand. The app offers the best guided (and non guided) meditation sessions out there. No need to bother with YouTube anymore. One thing that could be improved is to give us the choice to delete some unwanted recordings. Other than that, it's purely brilliant! Thank you so much .

This was a great app until the 3 April 2022 update!!! Now it doesn't work smoothly anymore. The session timer used to remain visible throughout the session, but now it fades out to blank screen. The session stops working once you change phone to to airplane mode (which is essential for preventing any intrusive calls or messages while meditating)... the earlier version allowed this. Please restore these features or simply bring back the earlier version which did everything fine!
