the practice of satipaṭṭhāna [2]
Feb. 15th, 2019 11:48 amContinuing my previous post on satipaṭṭhāna, let's now get into the pericope:
I'm going to break each of the phrases into parts and deal with those parts. There's the starting bit, which is what changes in each repetition, kāye kāyānupassī viharati, vedanāsu vedanānupassī viharati, citte cittānupassī viharati, dhammesu dhammānupassī viharati. That's followed by ātāpī, sampajāno, satimā, and vineyya loke abhijjhādomanassaṃ. I'll take up each of those pieces in turn.
