Foreword
Brahmarshi Patriji is too well known now all over the world to need any formal introduction, particularly for the seekers on the path of spirituality and meditation. It is part of history that Prince Siddhartha left the palace in search of Truth, contentment and Peace. After experimenting with many well-known practices at that time-about 2,500 years ago, he ultimately got Enlightenment by the process known now as Vipassana. Over the years, Vipassana was forgotten in the land of Gautama the Buddha, but well preserved in some far-off lands including Burma-now known as Myanmar. About a century ago a prominent wealthy jeweller in Rangoon suffered from very severe incurable headache. To cut a long story short, finding no relief from treatments then available in many countries, the young Satyanarayana Goenkaji joined Vipassana Meditation course on the advice of his well-wishers. Goenkaji got relief from his physical ailment within a few weeks but found the practice far more valuable and completed the three month long course. He attained enormous benefits. On being advised by his Burmese guru/monk U Ba Khin to take back Vipassana to the land of birth of Buddha Goenkaji brought it back to India in 1969. By his own dedicated efforts, he simplified it to be taught to people at large. Even then it was ten days, when I had the privilege of learning Vipassana at the Hyderabad Center, during a critical period of my life. I had to stay in the Ashram for ten days-two simple meals a day. Practice from 5 a.m., till late at night. First three days was only observing the breath, the incoming and outgoing breath. Called as Ana Apana Sati. The next seven days is observing the sensations of the body in total silence. It was Brahmarshi Patriji who simplified the entire process. Discovering the observance of the breath - incoming and outgoing breath-is alone enough for the meditation, he practiced himself, got the benefit and started spreading the same to everyone.. the poor and the rich, the illiterate and educated, and made it possible for everyone to attain the benefit. He realised the power of meditating in a pyramid and promoted establishment of pyramids everywhere. There are now over 20,000 Pyramids big and small, countless free workshops, conferences, classes, seminars and meditation movements. Combined with his gift of singing and playing flute, he has mesmerised people not only in many parts of India, but even in many countries around the world. Thus was born a new age spiritual movement, demanding nothing from the followers but regular practice of meditation that is offered free of cost to everyone. Millions have been transformed by a simple technology. Millions of animals and birds are grateful to him for making millions of people becoming vegetarians.
