The presentation of the satipatthana is of experience divided between ‘me’ and ‘the world’. Through practice, we see through this boundary and undertake the responsibility of participating in and co-generating a reality rooted in Dhamma.
1 How is there embodiment in the formless realms? 2 Is unwavering mindfulness possible? 3 Cultivating the brahmavihāra with samādhi 4 How are happiness and unhappiness equal - and what about Nibbāna? 5 What is the ‘spinal sense? 6 How do we practice forgiveness?
Resonating with images and meanings of the Triple Gem generates positive waves that place in the field of the True, the Good and the Beautiful - the best place for practice.
Citta/heart is like a lake with waves rippling through it. The unawakened response is to create walls to resist the unpleasant, and fences to retain the pleasant - and 'me' to hold it all. Awakening responses to the waves are the skills of samadhi and brahmavihara. These make the lake vast and able to allow waves to arise and subside. They are door to the deathless - the unconstructed that the citta can enter through non-holding.
The process of fruition through satipatthana entails resources, obstacles, skills, release and integration. Nibbana can be momentary whenever the consciousness of subject and object deconstructs.
