The Foundations of Mindfulness
Just a few pages long, with 13 recommended practices, it provides the authority for the worldwide practice of mindfulness. However, this influential text has been neglected of late - not least because the common translation, in Victorian English, is virtually indecipherable. So, modern mindfulness students - focused instead on the Zen practice of 'just sitting' - risk missing the benefits of the Buddha's more sophisticated approach.In 1975, Eric Harrison retranslated the SATIPATTHANA SUTTA and made it the basis of his teaching career. Now, with his new translation and commentary - informed by a lifelong consideration of the Buddha's original teachings - he makes mindfulness more accessible than ever, particularly to those coming to it not by way of Buddhism or prior meditation practice.
