A seminar on the four foundations of mindfulness, Buddha's most detailed teaching on the practice of mindfulness, found in the Satipatthana Sutra, "The Discourse on the Foundations of Mindfulness." Includes a talk on each of the four foundations: body, life (a.k.a. feeling), effort (a.k.a. mind), and mind (a.k.a. mental contents). The foundations are presented from an experiential perspective as stages of meditation. Other topics include the fundamental qualities of mind, meditation in action, and balancing meditation practice and study. Partial source for Chapters 36-42 in THE PROFOUND TREASURY VOL 1.
