My Spiritual Transformation and Journey Through the Elements

The first time I realized that the elements are a part of our internal and external spiritual journey was in a Vipassana meditation center in the woods in northern California. It was created by a man from India, S.N. Goenka, who opened spiritual centers across the world for the purpose of holding three and ten-day silent meditation courses.

I could not look at another person, read, exercise or use the Internet for ten days. The silence was torturous, but I did learn a lot about myself. The experience helped me to realize that each of the elements discussed here can be felt pulsating through our bodies.
