Conversation with my teacher on Vipassana Mediation

KEE: i just finished my VIPASSANA


During vipassana, on the 4th, 5th and 6th day, i have lots dreams.....weird dreams...hehehe


MENG FOONG: it's normal. happen to everyone


KEE: i believe is the process


MENG FOONG: everything you experienced and is experiencing is NOT IMPORTANT. no need to pay attention or to find out why and what.


KEE: i dreamed i witnessed a murder scene..something like tht..then i bcome a detactive..n searching for the murderer..hahahhaha yes...i didnt.... it is kind of bell ringing......the vipassana lot of things, more make sense now....


MENG FOONG: your mind function according to all the inputs that has been accummulated from the past and now. all the dreams that you can remember or cannot remember are just your mind resemble all the inputs from here and there, books, stories, movies, songs, talking, hearing, seeing, tasting, touching, thinking, imagining...


KEE: it is somekind of connector to alots of things..things tht we hv been doing, hearing,..the dhamma 


MENG FOONG: good that you feel you "understand" more now. and everytime you will hear the same dhamma again but you will understand something different.


KEE: yes...so i will definitely go again....coz i believe tht human is very selective towards what we want to hear ...it is out of our control most of the time even though i don want to be like tht..but when the time is right, things tht we should hear will be heard....even we want to hear all, but not the right time, we cant hear it even repeated many many times.... 


MENG FOONG: some people spent one year doing vipassana. very fruitful. you will naturally become "quiet"... nothing to say. because all that you experience is just the mind, and it is not important at all.now you did one course already, you can serve. serving is very fruitful more than doing the course yourself. 

KEE: yeah....will join back next year..then only we will b able to see clearly whether did we apply the technique...10days is to show the technique but whether it is workable or not..it is all on our daily life practice 


MENG FOONG: when you know all the names and forms, good and bad qualities is coming from the mind, and you know all these "experiences" are not IMPORTANT at all because the mind doesn't really exist and it is not YOU, you will be silent. nothing to ask, to say, to be this or that. 


not even "try" to be happy... because there is no unhappiness.bye. have to go now... good night to you.
