Dhamma practice in a nutshell

20/11/2019

 

​Mindfulness of breathing, skilfully practised, makes us aware of the body without losing our sense of space. The result is that we develop awareness of our body within an open spacious mind rather than experiencing the mind within the body.

The body, thought and feeling then appear as not-self within the detached, empty mind. This experience leads to a joyous letting go and freedom from suffering.




I offer this for your reflection
