Abstract
Currently, meditation in general and insight meditation (Vipassana) in particular is one of the very effective methods to help people find inner peace and stability in an unpredictable world. Due to this, they can see the meaning of life, letting go of ignorance to achieve the ultimate goal of liberating themselves from worldly suffering. Therefore, introducing insight meditation and its value is highly meaningful. Equally important is understanding its origins and practice methods, which helps practitioners stay on the right way. Additionally, Vipassana meditation is a valuable and effective method for supporting the treatment of concentration disorders. As a result, there is significant interest in developing this meditation technique in Vietnam and many Southeast Asian countries today.
