Sipirits in the material world

I came out of the vipassana center on 12th. This second course was way easier and deeper than the first one. It is difficult to put words on the experiences in vipassana, but I feel like this meditation is the universal remedy for all sufferings. To me it is the core of most of Asian philosophies and understanding myself and this technique makes me understand much more deeply what is India and the reasons behind the social facts and traditions. As time passes, I learn how to be in osmosis with the external world. I begin to loose my self in the crowds. Actually what is happening now fits exactly the glimpses I had from my future here while I was imagining this trip from France. It's like living a dream. At the beginning, I was feeling disappointed sometimes because what I was living here was not really fitting this idea I had about my trip. But now that I changed myself from within, this is finally happening. I have never felt so happy !

While I was in deep meditation, trying not to identify myself with all the objects coming in my mind, the lyrics of that song by Sting -which I absolutely never listen to, and I don't know how I manage to remember it- where coming all the time : "spirits in the mateeerial world..."
