2010-10-26 Satipatthana Sutta, Second Foundation: Unpleasantness Leading to Divisiveness 58:06
Rodney Smith
Once a moment is avoided, a world view of division and separation springs forth, accompanied by a compelling narrative that justifies the aversion. Now we are in full armor with the world as our adversary, tying us to a ceaseless argument with it.

2010-10-12 Satipatthana Sutta, Second Foundation: The Pain of Pleasure 59:21
Rodney Smith
Once pleasure becomes a determined pursuit, the world divides itself into a pleasure/pain polarity. We now pursue pleasure, both to sustain a pleasant feeling and to avoid the discontent of pain.<br />

2010-09-28 Satipatthana Sutta, Second Foundation: Leaning into Feelings 62:08
Rodney Smith
The Second Foundation of Feelings is most easily held within the First Foundation of Body. The body gives clues to the mind's feelings. Postures such as physically leaning toward, away, or wandering in confusion show that the body is moving in alignment to a conditioned reference.

2010-09-14 Satipatthana Sutta, Second Foundation: Feelings Molding Character 61:17
Rodney Smith
Feelings are the first conditioned reference we offer the moment. Through our feelings we are prepared to turn away, ignore, or grasp the experience at hand. Feelings set up our attitudes, personal story, and character to carry us forward in a predisposed way.

2010-08-24 Satipatthana Sutta, First Foundation: Mindfulness of the Mind Within the Body 53:13
Rodney Smith
How do the mind and body relate and does this tell us something regarding our identification with the processes involved? How does "mine and yours" become established within this relationship of mind/body?

2010-08-03 Satipatthana Sutta, First Foundation: Death and the Body (2) 59:13
Rodney Smith
As we explore the body from this sutta, we realize the inevitability of loss and begin to see death everywhere. Death takes us through various stages of realization, altering our life and changing it forever. We learn to live consciously with all beginnings and endings.

2010-07-06 Satipatthana Sutta, First Foundation: Death and the Body (1) 59:24
Rodney Smith
The Buddha seems to be encouraging an exploration of the themes of death and the body in this passage of the Satipatthana Sutta. Though all of us know we are going to die, few of us realize that fact as a living truth. This passage is meant to release us from our denial that fixates on permanency and continuity.
