When he died in 1971, the great Burmese meditation master Sayagyi U Ba Khin left an invaluable legacy. He was one of the first teachers of the twentieth century to present the ancient technique of Vipassana in a modern, systematic way, making it accessible to people of diverse denominations and cultures. Vipassana, the essence of the teaching of the Buddha, is a simple and practical method for achieving real peace of mind. This journal commemorates U Ba Khin's exemplary life and teaching. It contains a selection of his discourses, and biographical sketches of his life and the lives of the teachers who preceded him. Included are essays about his noteworthy career by his renowned disciple, S.N. Goenka, as well as articles on different aspects of the Vipassana technique. This journal, originally published in 1991, marked the first time much of this material appeared in one collection in English. In the years since his death, the technique that U Ba Khin taught has spread from Burma back to India, its land of origin, and from there, around the world. Today Vipassana meditation can be learned at established centres in different countries, offering to ever-increasing numbers of people the opportunity to learn this art of living which brings peace and harmony within. The Vipassana Research Institute offers this collection as a tribute to Sayagyi U Ba Khin in the hope that many more people will benefit from the wonderful way of life that he lived and of which he was a brilliant example.
