"S.N. Goenka: His Life His Dhamma" Complete

This float carried the final remains of S.N. Goenka from the Yangon airport to Dhamma Joti

U Min Chit Thu spent the better part of a decade completing his oeuvre on the life of the great lay meditation teacher S.N. Goenka. Although it has not yet been released outside of Myanmar, he personally has given this blog permission to share his work with the greater world, for all to better appreciate the life of Goenkaji. U Min Chit Thu also decided to share as he has made the documentary not for personal fame or profit, but to inspire a generation of meditators. Currently a project is underway to provide English subtitles. Until then, according to U Min Chit Thu's generous permission, we share the complete four parts here:

"S.N. Goenka: His Life His Dhamma, Part 4"





This documentary, chronicling the life of S.N. Goenka from a Burmese perspective, has been many years in the making by U Min Chit Thu and U Lu Min Khaung. While it is now available throughout Myanmar, this is the first chance for anyone outside the country to be able to get a view of it. The makers of the documentary have kindly given us exclusive permission to post this on the Internet, so that their work may reach more people throughout the world, and offer inspiration and appreciation. They would like to bring English subtitles but are currently running into technical difficulties; additional volunteers for this meritorious deed may contact us.

This is the fourth and final part. The first part can be found here.
