Channel: Samatha Vipassana Trust
Date: 2022-08-22

Ven. Khema explains the hallmarks of the Rupa (form-based) Jhānas and Arupa (Mental/Formless) Jhānas that a meditator moves through in order to fall into cessation. Each of these Jhānas have specific markers by which a meditator can understand their progress and know whether they are on the right path to Nibbana.
