In this week's FBA Podcast, "How the Buddha Taught Mindfulness," Ratnpaprabha explains this practice and understanding of the Sutta of 'Being mindful of the in- and out-breaths' (Anapanasati). He talks about how mindfulness connects with body-awareness, how t takes you into rapture and happiness, and thus into 'sensitivity to the whole mind. He also explores how one calms and focuses the mind in mindfulness meditation, and how this can lead to 'gladdening', 'concentrating' and 'liberating', and finally to full Insight.
