Mindfulness of the Body as the Doorway Into The Four Foundations of Mindfulness
2010-01-31 Mindfulness of the Body as the Doorway Into The Four Foundations of Mindfulness 52:49
Richard Shankman
Description: This talk begins with an explanation of the goal of Buddhist practice, liberation through non-clinging. Then it discusses that insight is what leads to liberation and the four foundations of mindfulness is the practice leading to insight. We discuss how the first foundation of mindfulness, mindfulness of the body, is a doorway opening to and integrating with the entire four foundations of mindfulness.
