Any advice for beginners about Vipassana traditions? There are many Theravada Vipassana traditions according to this wikipedia page and more according to this answer.

My questions are:


Are any, or all, of these traditions suited to beginners?
And why? 
Are any of them more especially suited for beginners?
If you recommend a tradition for beginner, how can one begin it: books; weekly lessons with a teacher; ten-day retreats; Youtube; ... ?
Please reference (i.e. quote, cite, or link to) advice, from any of them, that's especially intended for beginners.




Some of the traditions include:


Ledi Lineage (Ledi Sayadaw, U Ba Khin, S.N.Goenka, Anagarika Munindra, Dipa Ma)
Mahasi Lineage (U Narada, Mahasi Sayadaw, Nyanaponika Thera, Bhikkhu Bodhi, Goldstein, Salzberg)
Thai Forest Tradition (Ajahn Chah, Ajahn Sumedho, Thanissaro Bhikkhu, Kornfield)
Pa Auk Sayadaw Lineage (based on Visuddhimagga)
Mogok Sayadaw
Anagarika Munindra (combined Goenka and Mahasi methods)
and more
Beginners would benefit most from having an attitude of being a beginner. According to the Zen tradition of the Soto branch, the object of practice is not to achieve great knowledge, powers or concentration but to discover and weed out things that block the experience of what Shunryu Suzuki calls beginners mind. He is not talking to Soto Zen students. He is talking to Buddhists everywhere in all traditions. Every Buddhist tradition can lead to that fresh perception of reality that awakening reveals. If a tradition only provides you with a set of beliefs and does not point the way to awakening then keep looking. Everyone has the right to choose their own path, and if it serves its purpose or does not help you, move on.

I ask myself daily, am I ready to be a beginner. There are no advanced students in Buddhism. We are all beginners. Some beginners have walked the path longer and are aware of the inner mysteries to a greater degree. The Buddha never said I am enlightened and you are just mere mortals. He recognized the Buddha consciousness in all.

When I came to Buddhism I attended meditations in as many traditions as possible. Sometimes I clicked when I read a book but did not click at a local meditation. It does not matter what path you choose as long as it is one that is in harmony with your inner self and one that you practice every day in your meditation and in your living. It is a path of yielding and melting away any sense of separate self so we do not need to attain or accomplish great things

Until all that's left is eternity."
