"insight meditation".

insight, wisdom which sees realities as they are.

the penetrative insight of meditation, as distinguished from samatha mental tranquillity.

This form of meditation is widely practiced in Theravada Buddhism. Its goal is the realization of the three marks of existence: suffering, impermanence, and " no-soul." It leads to the realization of the true character of Emptiness. Vipassana and Samadhi are considered prerequisites for attaining nirvana by Theravada Buddhism.

This is a form of meditation known as insight meditation, and is considered key to enlightenment by Theravada Buddhists.
