Listen "Sitting Meditation- A Feminine Quality of Mindfulness"
Episode Synopsis
Drawing from a teaching from Bhikku Analayo, respected Buddhist scholar and monk, on a feminine nature of mindfulness, this meditation is an opportunity to explore mindfulness as an open, understanding receptivity to whatever arises:
Right away from the moment of waking up in the morning our good friend sati can already be there, as if waiting for us. She is ready to accompany us throughout the rest of the day, encouraging us to stay receptive and soft, and open, soft and understanding. She never gets upset when we happen to forget about her. As soon as we remember her, she is right there to be with us again.

(Please excuse my misnaming in the meditation of "Ajahn Analayo" instead of "Bhikku Analayo.")
