Old Path White Clouds - The Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta - Mindfulness of the Body
Channel: SF Dharma Collective
Date: 2023-07-06

Eve returns to the Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta, focussing on Mindfulness of the Body. She leads us in a meditation the moves from mindfulness of breath, to body, to a recitation of the 4 Remembrances, noticing how each one reverberates in our body. After a discussion, Eve rereads the Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta section of "Old Path White Clouds.”

Each week we read from “Old Path White Clouds”, the precious stories of the historical life of the Buddha beautifully woven together by the late great beloved being Thich Nhat Hanh.
