Global vipassana Pagoda , Mumbai . It was my solo trip I went there for witnessing the golden jubilee of vipassana meditation started by s.n goenka in india.
People came from all over the world to attend the golden jubilee of vipassana meditation on December , 2019 it completed 50 successful years. Most of the people were monks and vipassana gurus from different parts of the world. together we meditated inside the pagoda ( the dome shape hall) and global vipassana Pagoda in Mumbai is the world's largest pagoda it took 11 years to be built. This technique was faded away from India long ago and s.n goenka returned this meditation technique to India from mayanmar it was practiced and preserved there. It's also the must to visit place in Mumbai for tourists and you can go there by ferry ride from gorai Creek , this pagoda is situated inside esselworld amusement park you can buy a ferry ticket from esselworld counter itself it will cost you 70rs per person and it's a return ticket from gorai to esselworld jetty. You can see there the Burmese form of architecture which is really appreciable and photo gallery of evolution of vipassana meditation. Entry is free in the pagoda you have to pay the ferry fare only. I met several monks and understood there life style and I feel lucky that i was the part of this event. You can also visit my vlogs here https://youtu.be/6c1WdkSQECM thank you !!
