........As for stressed-out advertising executive Dinesh Damodaran, the 
answer lies in a meditation technique once popular among Buddhists.

"I meditate using the Vipassana technique - it's very effective, it helps me 
handle the day-to-day pressure of work," he says.

"You feel a lot more calm and are more productive at work."

Vipassana is growing in popularity in India. Many institutions - both 
government and private sector - now offer courses for their employees.
