VIPASSANA PRODUCTS

Vipassana, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation. More information about Vipassana as taught by S.N. Goenka is available at www.dhamma.org.

The tag Vipassana identifies products that are directly related to this tradition and differentiates them from other Theravada resources available on our site. While the main emphasis in Vipassana meditation as taught by S.N. Goenka is on actual practice, this product may provide inspiration and guidance to a Vipassana meditator.

We also carry titles from the Theravada tradition, as we feel that by exploring the wider world of the Theravada texts, which include the Buddha’s discourses, commentaries, and scholarly articles and treatises, meditators have an opportunity to deepen their understanding of the Dhamma and thereby enrich their meditation practice. This kind of intellectual exploration also helps a meditator to gain an understanding of the evolution and historical context of their meditation tradition. This understanding in turn deepens their practice and understanding of the Dhamma.

Why Amazon

Disclosure: Pariyatti is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.


Q: Why have you decided to partner with Amazon for the printing and distribution of your books?

A: Pariyatti is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to help disseminate the words of the Buddha.

The generosity of our customers and donors (donations make up ~25% of our revenue) is what has allowed Pariyatti to cover our annual shortfall, and permitted us to continue operations. We strive to continue to find ways to make best use of this hard-earned money, generously donated by so many to Pariyatti. One of these is to explore ways to optimize our operations.

Our goal is to disseminate Dhamma content. The choice of working with a given distribution partner is solely based on whether they can provide you, our customer (no matter where you live) with the item(s) you ordered in an accurate, timely, and reliable manner.

With the advent of eBooks and the internet, the entire book publishing and distribution industry has faced significant challenges. With these industry changes, and Pariyatti's additional challenges in serving a niche market with low sales volumes, it has been financially difficult to staff our own warehouse and operations. Year after year, the costs of maintaining our own warehouse has far exceeded the income.

By focusing on what we do best (such as make Dhamma content available at low or no cost), and partnering with others who have already built robust printing, packing, and delivery systems, we free up resources that can be redirected towards expanding Pariyatti's offerings for you.

We are always on the lookout for creative ways to make Dhamma content as widely and freely available as possible. If you have any ideas along these lines, please feel free to be in touch via [email protected] .

"Dhamma is not found in temples, or sold in the bazaar. Dhamma is not found in books; whoever applies it attains it." (S.N. Goenka Dhamma Verse 44) 

S.N Goenka is best known as a teacher of Vipassana meditation a modern master transmitting an ancient spiritual tradition dating back to the time of the Buddha. But he also carries on another tradition: that of the poet-sage whose words point the way to higher things. Just as the Buddha composed and often taught Dhamma by means of the gatha, or verse, so Mr. Goenka uses the doha, a rhymed couplet, chanted in his resonant voice, to instruct as well as inspire his Hindi-speaking students.

This integral part of his teaching method has remained obscure for those who do not understand Hindi. Dhamma Verses is an invitation to seekers everywhere to share the inspiration of Goenkaji's Dhamma poetry. This meticulously translated collection of over 100 of his dohas presents each doha in Roman-script Hindi and English.

"If wisdom arises in your mind you become humble and modest, as a branch laden with fruit is sure to bow low." (S.N. Goenka Dhamma Verse 92)

Dhamma Verses
This is a collection of around 120 dohas (a type of Indian poem) by S.N. Goenka in Hindi and English. There are two sets of 60 related dohas. These two sets of poems give inspiration, give the path of Vipassana meditation, explain Dhamma, and explain what is the good life. While I don’t know Hindi, I chant a poem set or a few poems in English after meditating. After chanting the poems, I will pause and reflect on the meaning of a poem set or particular poems. I find the chanting and reflecting helps my meditation and life overall through deepening my understanding of Dhamma. There is also available a video file with S.N. Goenka Hindi chanting with Hindi and English translation dohas words.
