Guest guest Report post Posted September 29, 2006 Friends: What is the Essential Foundation of Mental Purity ? The Blessed Buddha once said:Bhikkhus, there are these Four Foundations of Awareness. What four? When a Bhikkhu keenly contemplates: 1: The formation within all Body...2: The sensation within all Feeling... 3: The mentation within all Mind...4: The discrete states within all Phenomena.. while always acutely aware & clearly comprehending, he thereby removes any urge, envy, jealousy, frustration and discontent rooted in this world... These are the Four Foundations of Awareness... Source of reference (edited extract): The Grouped Sayings of the Buddha. Samyutta Nikaya.Book [V: 173-4] 47 The Foundations of Awareness: 24 Simple.. Details On Foundations of Awareness (Sati): http://What-Buddha-Said.net/drops/What_is_Right_Awareness.htmhttp://What-Buddha-Said.net/drops/III/Awareness_Sati.htm PS: Please include the word Samahita in any comment, since then will my automatic mail filters pick it up and I will see it & respond!!
