宣隆禪法是緬甸禪修派系中的一個大派系，始於被公認為阿羅漢的宣隆大師（1878 - 1952），他是一位農夫，不認識字，但是在1920年，透過觀察呼吸、痛感和接觸；證悟了聖果，並成就了神通。圓寂後留下了肉身舍利（身體不腐爛）在敏建鎮（Myingyan）供大眾參拜。

The video is an introduction to the Sunlun Vipassana meditation from Myanmar, explained by Ven. Sayadaw U Wara, abbot of Kaba Aye Sunlun Vipassana Meditation Center.

In the video, Sayadaw recalled his auspicious encounter of Sunlun Sayadaw as a kid living in Yangon, and how he came to know the tradition from the monk attendant of the great master. Sayadaw later practiced the method from the Ven. Sayadaw U Vinaya (1914 - 2012), the late abbot of Kaba Aye centre, Sayadaw U Wara would visit Hong Kong and Mainland China to teach meditation sessions for retreats.

Sunlun Vipassana is one of the most popular meditation methods in Myanmar, alongside with Mahasi, Mogok, that have hundreds of centers locally. The method is purely based vipassana (no jhana is practiced) or cultivation of insight. The Ven. Sunlun Sayadaw U Kavi is widely regarded locally as an Arahat, an enlightened being,
he left his full body intact after passing away (no decay or deterioration), and still could be visited at his home town in Myingyan, Myanmar.
