# 14.1 Vipassana and Life Beyond the Hamster Wheel with Thien Tang
This week I would like to introduce a special person who has made me aware of a new path: a meditation technique that is supposed to give inner peace and help us to separate ourselves from suffering and from our driven polarity. On a trip to Singapore, I met Thien, whose stories about Vipassana meditation made a lasting impression on me. His words stayed with me so that I finally decided to take part in silent meditation myself. In this episode, I would like to introduce you to Thien Tang! Enjoy Simon Eckelt
