The translated transcript is of the audio recorded on Jan 2, 1951 when the meeting between
Mahāsi Sayadaw and a Deva from Nimmānarati Heaven happened. The audio is authentic and the
transcript was done to the best of the author's ability. Most readers may not believe about
the beings from another dimensions and will not be able to follow what was talked about.
But for those who are interested and wanting to know about "How life revolves around saṃsarā,
how dieties live, how rare to become a human being, why human plane is better than heaven,
why now is the good time to practice vipassanā", this material is for you. It will open your
eyes and thoughts.
