Satipatthana Sutta, Fourth Foundation: Application of Discernment
56:22
|

Applying discernment requires an honesty of intent. That honesty is the discernment at work. If you need skillful means to help balance the energy, use it. It can be helpful to back up to the First Foundation and see how the state of mind is affecting the body. Next, move to the Second Foundation and catch the feeling tone and the accompanying story. Moving onto the Third Foundation, settle to see just what this state is in essence. Finally, apply discerning questions that pick apart the solidity and truth of the state of mind such as, "Is there space for this too?" "Where is the "me" in this state?"

During this daylong we will work with the habits that bind us and stop our potential for wisdom and compassion from manifesting fully. We will use the meditative tools found in the Vipassana and Zen traditions, like watching the breath, listening and questioning, to see how we can engage creatively with our habits and transform them into positive functions.
