________________ Some Eternal Values of Life-Vipashyana 119 universe is temporary (Anitya) including the "Soul". Jains also believe in this theory, but not for Soul (atman) which is considered by them as eternal - unborn and ever existing.

The technique has no connection with any organized religion and system of philosophy. It is of universal application and is concerned only with the realities of human mind and body It does cure physical ailments as most of them are psychosomatic and the latest thinking about human ailments is that most of them are genrated on account of mal-functioning of nervous system.
