Vipassana is the Pali term literally means Insight or seeing thing as they truly are. Seeing this body is not permanence, it is subjects to change, it is subject to pain, suffering, it is subject to decay and death.
So how do we practise this meditation? To begin with this meditation initially we always emphasize on our in and out breathing, while we focus on our in and out breath, we must not think about other things which is happing around us. if it happens we just let it pass or ignore it and the thing you need to do is just watch your breath. There are some more thing that you need to make your meditation better. Such as places, time and postures because if you do meditation in the rush area like in the public place or public building, because that is not a good place to do meditation. that's why you ought to find a calm place with no any sounds or disturbances from the outsiders and the place also must be a suitable place, it is not too cool, it is not too hot but the temperature must warm and you can’t practise meditation all the time you need but it must be all the time it requires and the last one is postures, you can’t sit with your back bow down but you have to sit straight. Then you will be able to do it well.
