‘I am spiritual and not religious’. Often people get confused with this statement. I go to church, mosque, and temple and bow down to any God or Goddess.
The simple word mantra is said to have come from the combination of two words,
‘Manas’ (which means mind) and
‘Tram’ (which means protection), so the root meaning is
“that which protects the mind”.
I have been reading and listening to Saint Kabir since my childhood. My research started on him when I was gifted an audio CD 'Mann Lago Yara Fakiri Mein' by Begum Abida Parveen and Gulzar Saheb.
Vipassana is described in ancient literature as the ability to see things as they really are, through a process of self-observation.
