Pa-Auk Forest Meditation Center
Only Pakuaku Forest Meditation Center, I recommend you to go to the Meditation Center first before going to Kyaikkhami Pagoda and some places. This is a famous meditation center in Myanmar, and you might see something in the morning.. Foreigners are often visited here frequently, and overseas monks are coming.
When meditating, the inside of the head will be refreshing and the mood will become clear. However, meditation is very difficult and it is not something that can be done soon. I think that it will take at least 2 to 3 months, it can be successful. Human always think something, so you try the meditation, and feel something which you think and feel in your mind by yourself. It is easy, just sitting and close your eyes, then you can see in your mind. You might feel your stress or somthing, and when you can not to thiink and feel in your mind, the stress would have gone and clearly.

A liittle bit difficult to see in the photos. some people are meditatiing. There are many places to meditate in the meditation center. Close your eyes, and try not to think, but it is really difficult not to think. Human always think something, and this thinking and mind make a stress for us. When you remove these, you don't feel the stress. Stress is made by myself. |
