U Nārada (နာရဒ; 1868–1955),[1] also Mingun Jetawun Sayādaw or Mingun Jetavana Sayādaw, was a Burmese monk in the Theravada tradition credited with being one of the key figures in the revival of Vipassana meditation.[1]
His prominent students, particularly Mahasi Sayadaw, helped popularise what is now known as the "New Burmese Method" or the "Mahasi method."[1] Sayadaw is a Burmese term of respect when addressing major Buddhist monks and means "great master".
