Vipassana - In the Beginning at International Buddhism Dance Festival in Seoul

Dance is a secular ceremony. 
In the midst of joyous chanting, 
Dancers channel their energy through fluid movements, 
Unleashing their natural instincts.

Awareness of the world and the self
Awakens the dormant conscience.
The simplicity of being,
Through the observation of emptiness;
Unravelling life’s depths,
An empty heart,
Its internal turmoil laid bare.
The cessation of perception, attained.

Knowing thyself is the beginning of all.
