The
purpose of Insight Meditation is not to create a system of beliefs,
but rather to give guidance on how to see clearly into the nature of
the mind. In this way one gains first-hand understanding of the way
things are, without reliance on opinions or theories-- a direct
experience, which has its own vitality. It also gives rise to the
sense of deep calm that comes from knowing something for oneself,
beyond any doubt."

take care of themselves, happily."
