what is Dissolution (Bhanga) ?

[maverick]

I have been practicing Vipassana (S.N Goenka) for few years, but I am not sure If I experienced Dissolution yet .
I know its hard to describe these kind of things with words, but still I want someone to who experienced it to explain it for me to satisfy my curious mind Can any help ?.

Dose different person experience it in a different way ?
Are there any sutta's that describe the quality a person develops once he experience Dissolution ?

Hi Maverick

My advice, as a long-time student of SN Goenka, is not to worry about it. There is a tendency among some students to chase certain experiences which is not the point of practice. Any craving for this or that attainment becomes a barrier for its attainment. Concentrate on observing whatever arises as it arises. I haven't seen Bhangha-nana in the suttas but it is described in Vism and, to my knowledge, in the Abhidhamma (see Bhikkhu Bodhi's Comprehensive Manual of the Abhdihamma). Also see Mahasi Sayadaw's 'progress of insight'.
All the very best with your practice.
kind regards
