Mindfulness of Breathing

Mindfulness of Breathing meditation builds on the foundation established with Satipaṭṭhāna meditation. Using the Anapanasati-sutta, the “Discourse on Mindfulness of Breathing In and Breathing Out”, as the main source text, Bhikkhu Anālayo offers guided instructions as presented in his text – Mindfulness of Breathing: A Practice Guide and Translations (Anālayo, 2019).

In this freely offered series of six audio meditations, Bhikkhu Anālayo provides sequential guided instructions for mindfulness of breathing. Instructions begin with development of the preliminaries, progressing through the scheme of the sixteen steps, culminating with contemplation of the awakening factors.

All donations received from this freely-offered series will be used to ensure that BCBS can continue to operate and offer the precious, liberating teachings of the Buddha during this unprecedented COVID-19 crisis, as well as to provide Bhikkhu Anālayo with the living conditions he needs to do his research and practice.
