Now youcan at leastbelieve that,there issomethingotherthansunraysto illuminatethe picture you

I’ll give youa lull toreplyme back.
2. Consideringabove facts&details,youcancome to a conclusionthatyou are watchinga filmaroundthe
clock or 24 hourswithouta halt,butyou do notknow about it.
Evenif you are born inother 31 abodes,youhave towatch (eitheryoulike ornot) the same typesof 4
cinemasinyourlives.
To escape fromthese continuouspicture-falling,there isonlyone pathwayisavailable inthisworld.
THAT IS VIPPASSANA MEDITATION.
