Saigon Meditation Project mobile app is a free app for everyone with library of dharma talks, and some suggested guided meditation and relaxation scripts. Most of the content is from Sayadaw U Jotika’s teaching. Please note that in order to seriously learn and practise Vipassana meditation, you need to attend formal classes with meditation masters. All the information shared in this app should be only your pure source of reference, inspiration and motivation in order for you to find your mindfulness way, the one and only one way to completely liberate your mind from suffering. If you can regularly practise short relaxation sessions (10-20 minutes) each day, it would certainly let your mind rest in the most effective manner. That’s when your mental energy is refilled, re-charged, and renewed. You can directly experience those benefits by yourself. That would encourage you to invest more into relaxation and Vipassana meditation by attending formal meditation classes with official guidances from meditation masters. For Vipassana tradition, you can look up Theravada meditation centers nearby and see if you can find suitable retreats there to attend. Besides those dharma talks and guided scripts, SMP app also provides meditation bells with different time intervals, as well as the reminder bells in between. It’s useful for meditators to use at home. Hope this small app can be beneficial to everyone as well as can be the source of inspiration and motivation to all meditators. May all of peace and mindfulness stay with you.
