Sammāsamādhi (right stillness) Workshop I - Part 1 | Ajahn Brahmali | 26 November 2022

Описание: The BSWA is delighted to present yet another workshop in the series on Early Buddhism. We
will continue where we left off with the last workshop. This means we will focus on the eighth
factor of the Noble Eightfold Path, right stillness, otherwise known as sammāsamādhi or
jhāna. This concerns the deep states of peace that are one of the primary purposes of
meditation practice.

The main focus of the workshop will be understanding the true nature of jhāna as presented
by the Buddha. We will start off by discussing the place of jhāna on the Buddhist path. We
will then look at a number of misconceptions and controversies that surround jhāna. Finally,
we will discuss the jhānas in detail, including analysing the standard descriptions of the jhānas
as found in the suttas.

The workshop will be conducted in two sessions per day, this is Part 1, 8.30 - 10.15 am.
Part 2 of the workshop starts at 12.30 to 2.30 pm -    • Sammāsamādhi (right stillness) Workshop I ...
