Dr. Vipula Wanigasekera was in spiritual studies for over three decades in Sri Lanka and overseas. He is former Sri Lankan Diplomat and Director General of Sri Lanka Tourism Authority. He is currently a Senior Lecturer for Edith Cowan University in Perth and Colombo.

After launching his book ‘Pointers to Enlightenment’ he started offering meditation sessions for tourists on the theme that ‘Truth is Simple, and it is too simple why most people cannot grasp’. His one-hour discourse and meditation explains how human suffering, be it stress, anxiety, worry, fear, or anger apart from inevitable aging, sicknesses and foreseeable death can ignite an inquiry with an inward journey into self. That search, if one keeps all options open without prejudice, may encounter perhaps with a surprise, what is looked for, has never been outside ‘WHAT IS’.
