Satipatthana Course with Chittamani & Vimalavajri

A special course within our normal intermediate meditation drop-ins. [N.B. This course was originally advertised as starting on 23 Sept - it will now begin on 30 Sept. A regular drop-in session will still take place on 23 Sept.] We will be exploring the Buddha's teaching on mindfulness from the Pali Canon, the Satipatthana Sutta, often known as the four foundations of mindfulness. Revered throughout the Buddhist world, it is regarded as the Buddha's most comprehensive teaching on mindfulness meditation and described as the direct path to awakening. Each week there will be a brief talk, followed by a guided meditation, and then group discussion over a cup of tea. "To play well... a violinist has to bring about a fusion between herself and what she is doing... Everything must come together in a single, rich experience of energy and expressive skill... This heightened state of awareness is what we need to aim for, body and mind fully engaged in a state of clarity and positivity that saturates and colours the whole of our experience." - from Living with Awareness
