S.N. Goenka
S.N. Goenka is the father of modern vipassana. With over 270 meditation centers in 90 countries, Goenka has been incredibly influential. His style of mindfulness is presented as science, not Buddhism. As such, it has had the power to reach people of all religions and traditions.
Utilizing the body scan, Goenka essentially investigates the Four Foundations of Mindfulness. His technique can feel rigid at first, and the 10-day vipassana retreats can be quite intense. But this practice has helped countless people find wisdom and insight, and has inspired many aspects of Buddhism and Buddhist meditation in the West.
