Retreat Title: Anapanasati. Mindfulness as a Path to Awakening
Led by Prakasha
This retreat will explore the sixteen contemplations of the Buddha’s teaching on awareness of the in-and-out breath from the Anapanasati Sutta. The breath is used as a focus for awareness of the four foundations of body, feeling-tone, mental states and mental objects.
The practice is a complete path to awakening. By bringing awareness and attention to our direct experience we cultivate both tranquility (shamatha) and penetrating insight (vipashyana). When phenomena are recognised as impermanent, unsatisfactory and insubstantial, then the three gateways to liberation arise.
Prakasha has been leading retreats for many years and is well known in the Triratna Community for his clear and inspiring approach.
This retreat is suitable for people who have been meditating for at least 3 years
