New Year Vipassana NHC in Bali

Vipassana is an ancient meditation technique rooted in the Sanskrit word meaning “seeing things as they truly are.” This practice, discovered by Gautama Buddha over 2,500 years ago, remains a powerful method for self-awareness and personal transformation.

Vipassana NHC (Neuronet of Happiness and Consciousness) is a unique practice developed by the realized master Sarasvati. It blends ancient wisdom with modern science to foster transformation through self-observation. By exploring the interconnection of mind, body, and breath, Vipassana NHC enhances brain neuroplasticity, leading to deep satisfaction, tranquility, and elevated happiness and awareness.

About the Creator:

Sarasvati, a neurobiologist and spiritual practitioner with over 20 years of experience, developed Vipassana NHC by integrating scientific knowledge with teachings from a renowned enlightened master. Her approach combines expertise in meditation, neuroscience, and community leadership to create a proven path for deep transformation.

Key Features:

1. Integration of Ancient Wisdom and Modern Science

– Merges insights from Vipassana traditions (Mahasi Sayadaw, Thai Forest, Theravada) with neurophysiology and other scientific disciplines

– Provides scientific validation of its effectiveness

2. Practical Approach

– Offers concrete tools to work with consciousness through structured learning: instruction → practice → personal experience → scientific explanation

– Includes four meditation positions: seated, reclining, standing, and walking

3. Adaptation to Modern Realities

This method of transformation through self-observation uses scientific principles to explore the relationship between mind, body and breath. By increasing the neuroplasticity of the brain, it leads to a state of deep satisfaction, calm, as well as increased happiness and awareness. Vipassana NHC is practiced in 4 positions: sitting, lying down, standing and moving.

Vipassana NHC is a unique opportunity to deeply understand how your mind, body and breath work, and learn to interact with your thoughts and emotions.

The scientific basis of the method helps to reveal the laws of the brain and nervous system, which leads to increased awareness, calmness and self-control, and improves the quality of life.

2. Utilizing Brain’s Hidden Resources:

Through structured meditation techniques, participants learn to tap into natural moments of relaxation and brain functionality. These moments, which often go unnoticed, are leveraged to restore balance, increase focus, and foster personal growth.

3. Proven Effectiveness:

The approach is backed by participant surveys, with 98% reporting a positive experience. Many describe the practice as life-changing, citing significant improvements in emotional stability, mental clarity, and overall well-being.

If you can sit, move, or lie down, you can practice Vipassana NHC. Participants with medical conditions should consult their doctor and inform the organizers in advance.

No. Vipassana NHC teaches participants to achieve elevated states through meditation and self-knowledge. Substances are not used, as true harmony comes from within and does not rely on external stimulants.

– Noble Silence: Participants maintain complete silence except during designated times with the master. This practice conserves energy and fosters deeper introspection by eliminating the distractions of verbal communication.

– Independent Exploration: Each participant receives personalized tools and instructions, enabling them to engage with the practice in a way that aligns with their individual experiences and needs.

– Digital Detox: Participants refrain from using electronic devices, clocks, or mirrors. This helps to free the mind from distractions and encourages living fully in the present moment.

– Nutritional Care: A vegetarian detox diet with two main meals per day (7:00 and 11:00) supports the body’s physical health while deepening inner work. Herbal teas, cocoa, and smoothies are available between meals.

– Sensory Pause: Participants avoid eye contact, physical touch, communication, and sensory distractions, allowing for heightened focus and an unbroken meditative state.

– Gender-Separated Living: Accommodations are separated by gender to create a focused and distraction-free environment conducive to deep inner work.

Early departure disrupts the retreat’s flow and prevents achieving maximum relaxation of your central and peripheral nervous system. If unsure about staying the full time, choose a 3-day express retreat. Often, around days 6-7, people feel they understand everything and want to leave, but this is when new growth begins, possible only in the master’s field and retreat group dynamics.

For individuals without severe psychological conditions, Vipassana NHC is safe and harmonizes naturally with the brain. Those with concerns should consult professionals before joining.

Complete trust and full immersion are the two pillars of transformation. Give yourself entirely to the retreat experience, and let it guide you to new depths. The more you put in, the more profound your discoveries will be. After the retreat, you’ll naturally know which practices to take with you.
