Can they continue Vipassana along with their rites and rituals after leaving the course?
Acharya S.N.Goenka: If they start understanding, “This is an empty shell, and Vipassana is the real essence, yet I can’t let go of the empty shell,” then at least they should keep the two apart. Do these rites and rituals, then leave a gap and do Vipassana later. They can continue like that, although it is not healthy. But as they grow they have to come out of these rites and rituals. Rites and rituals can’t go together with Vipassana.
