"𝐕𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐒𝐭𝐲𝐥𝐞" Guided Body Scan Meditation ~ Samaneri Jayasara

This is a guided body scan meditation somewhat similar to the technique taught on the 10 day Vipassana retreat of the Goenka tradition (and as requested by listeners). The focus is on the first two of the four foundations of mindfulness that the Buddha taught - kayanupassana (mindfulness of body) and vedananupassana (mindfulness of feeling and feeling tone). However, please keep in mind that within the Pali suttas of the Theravadin tradition, the word vipassana literally means "insight" (or seeing into the true nature of reality which brings freedom from suffering to varying degrees). "Vipassana" is not one specific technique of practice, but rather seeing clearly that all conditions are characterised by anicca, dukkha and anatta (impermanence, suffering, non-self).

For a deeper understanding of what the Buddha taught in relation to the four foundations of mindfulness, here is a link to the original sutta: https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipit...
