File02_(AM)_Introducing_Mahasi_method.mp3Introducing Mahasi Method2246 viewsPatrick Kearney's Vipassana Retreat Talk at Bodhi Tree Monastery (2009)
Today we introduce the method of meditation we are practising during this retreat. Yesterday morning we just brought a sense of open curiosity to the examination of mind/body experience. This morning we are applying system to this investigation, stimulating what the Buddha calls yoniso manasikara, “appropriate attention.†We do this through the meditation method created by Mahasi Sayadaw of Burma (1904-1982), which is structured by his division of experience into primary and secondary object, along with the fundamental activities of noting, naming and noticing.

x66.mp3Integrating Mindfulness into Daily Life973 viewsA basic skill in Vipassana meditation is to acquire the ability to give full and sustained attention or mindfulness to what you are doing as you are doing it; yet we rarely, if ever, give anything our full attention, at best it is just partial attention. While most practitioners can establish mindfulness in the supportive conditions of a retreat the challenge then is to integrate mindfulness into daily life.     (2 votes)

File04_(AM)_Contemplating_elements.mp3Contemplating the Elements1196 viewsPatrick Kearney's Vipassana Retreat Talk at Bodhi Tree Monastery (2009)
The foundation of satipatthana (establishing mindfulness) is the tracking (anupassana), or contemplation, of our experience of body. As we remain present to physical experience over time, we learn to drop beneath our concepts of body to its direct, sensual impact. What we normally take to be “my body†becomes, as we go deeper, different manifestations of the four elements of earth, air, fire and water.      (3 votes)

File01_At_Bodh_Gaya.mp3At Bodh Gaya1397 viewsPatrick Kearney's Vipassana Retreat Talk at Bodhi Tree Forest Monastery (2009)
Tonight we look at the Buddha's activities during the weeks immediately after his awakening. We see him as a powerful shaman, and how he wrestled with the question of whether or not he should attempt to communicate his awakening. It took the intervention of Brahma Sahampati to persuade him to teach. Why was the Buddha so reluctant? And what does his reluctance tell us about the dharma he wanted to teach — and about himself?     (2 votes)
