- sridca 11y agoI just read your recent comments which indicates that you are a fan of the Vipassana method. Do you realize that Vipassana as practiced in the West is not so much about elimination of ego as distancing (hence dissociation) the said ego from the soul (the seat of emotions)? As the emotions are still in place, when push comes to shove the distanced ego will rear its ugly head again and again (hence unreliable). There is more to the human condition than the ego, and this is what Satya Narayan Goenka doesn't get. He is essentially promoting an extreme form of everyday psychological dissociation.
