Skilful Means: The Way of Mindfulness
Satipatthana - the Way of Mindfulness - is a traditional Buddhist meditation training, also described as Skilful Means.
It is a way of cultivating
an honest and clear awareness of who we are at a physical, emotional and
mental level. Our tendencies and characteristics, our motives and intentions
are identified as they arise and thus we see that we can choose to let go
of our conditioned ways of reacting and relating.
It is acutely relevant to everyday life, and to anyone who wants to investigate
how to live with less friction and discomfort within his or her environment,
occupation and relationships.
The practice of Skilful Means is the greatest act of kindness to oneself and others as we come to see and understand the true nature of suffering. (more...)
