Great video! Interesting that you brought in attachment theory for a moment. A more in depth attachment/Vipassana video would be interesting as someone who did a 10 day and is avoidantly attached.
Vipasanna takes you more then impermanence One need to know nibanna and what is it? I hv seen it many hasn't. You need to see it too. Then your vipasanna journey has really completely. Buddhang saranam gacchami
Thank you for sharing your experience Amanda.. so succinctly put! 👏I Im going on my first 10 day course in 3days . Your description of your experience is inspiring. 🙏🏼 Metta!
As old students we always love to hear the retelling of the first 10 day course of vipassana . Thankyou for sharing & congratulations 🙂An enjoyable explaination , summary and description. Everything is so pure and wholesome about this practice, so grateful to the 'Buddah' and all that have passed it forward
Thank you for sharing! I went to Vipassana 20 years ago. I experienced a lot of freedom but unfortunately did not practise. I'm intending to go again in April this year.
Thanks for sharing your experience! I attended a short course again one year after my first Vipassana and found it quite challenging to be fully present. I would recommend if going again to do another 10 day if you have not been practicing. All the best!
Best explanation about Vipassana dear ....if you can please visit Nissarana Wanaya residential Retreat in Sri Lanka you will find more about your self and definitely amazing meditation experience ....
Great video. I was a bit hesitant about doing this retreat, but you make me really want to go now!! Thanks a lot 🧡 hope you’re having a wonderful week!
Thanks for your comment! It certainly isn't like a retreat where you might expect it to be relaxing and a getaway. It's a lot of work but incredibly valuable!
Thank you so much for this video. I couldn’t watch all the way through. as I see, it is kind of a spoiler alert. Although I may experience it differently. I do in fact, plan to do this Vipassana on my up and coming journey. Nevertheless, I’m definitely going to check out more of of your videos as I am intrigued to do so. Many thanks and Namaste.
I heard if you eat non veg and do vipassana at same time effect is not that good bec on one side ur consuming animal and on other sude trying to purify your thoughts...das y no non veg is served for ten days
There are 5 precepts you undertake for the duration of the course when you attend: to abstain from killing any being to abstain from stealing to abstain from all sexual activity to abstain from telling lies to abstain from all intoxicants. I attended Vipassana as part of Dhamma so food is provided for and it's all vegetarian!
Ha Ha very funny or are you serious? If you’re serious then you totally misunderstood what Vipassana is. Yes you loose the desire to do bad things and get inspired to be a positive human being
Thanks for your comment. Vipassana is a technique of meditation and means to see things as they really are. It is indeed possible for us to open our minds and consider teachings, philosophies and other ideologies without having to buy into the religious doctrine. It is also possible to see and understand the value of Vipassana without having to practice Buddhism or agree with everything it teaches.
Hey Amanda this is Fudge :). I’m going to the 10 day course next month. I’m so excited and nervous. Thanks for recounting what you went through 🙏🏽

Thanks you Amanda for sharing. I have a question How long does it take to sit still for the vipassana?
Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu😊
One question, are you practising vi passana at your home now ? If so how many hours every day
my experience women are so attractive when they are not talking i wish all women practice vipassana permanently

@@selfwithamanda ...oh ok....dat answers the question
@@Balancedtrader12Tibetan Buddhists eat meat.
i attended vipassana they allowed tequila and crystal meth and orgies at night
After this, life becomes “meaningless” because there is no more desire.

@@damianv8200 How you know for sure? You have done it before?
i think you wore the wrong shirt for this video, lol

@@selfwithamanda Of course I know. I just couldn't resist that joke.
