Public talks about Vipassana Meditation and other events are periodically scheduled in Michigan to provide interested persons with information about the technique.

One way to find out more about Vipassana Meditation is to come to one of these organized events. Following the introductory talks and video showings there will be an opportunity to ask questions and talk informally with experienced meditators.

For further information on Vipassana Meditation the following books available from Pariyatti Books are recommended:

• The Art of Living: Vipassana Meditation as Taught by S.N. Goenka, by William Hart
• Cultivating Inner Peace: Exploring the Psychology, Wisdom and Poetry of Gandhi et al, by Paul R. Fleischman M.D.
