    Deep Dive into Vipassana Copyright © 2020 Lion’s Roar Foundation, except where noted. All rights reserved. Lion’s Roar is an independent non-profit whose mission is to communicate Buddhist wisdom and practices in order to benefit people’s lives, and to support the development of Buddhism in the modern world. Projects of Lion’s Roar include Lion’s Roar magazine, Buddhadharma: The Practitioner’s Quarterly, lionsroar.com, and Lion’s Roar Special Editions and Online Learning. Theravada, which means “Way of the Elders,” is the earliest form of institutionalized Buddhism. It’s a style based primarily on talks the Buddha gave during his forty-six years of teaching. These talks were memorized and recited (before the internet, people could still do that) until they were finally written down a few hundred years later in Sri Lanka, where Theravada still dominates – and where there is also superb surf. In the US, Theravada mostly man- ifests through the teaching of Vipassana, particularly its popular meditation technique, mindfulness, the awareness of what is hap- pening now—thoughts, feelings, sensations—without judgment or attachment. Just as surfing is larger than, say, Kelly Slater, Theravada is larger than mindfulness. It’s a vast system of ethics and philoso- phies. That said, the essence of Theravada is using mindfulness to explore the Buddha’s first teaching, the Four Noble Truths, which go something like this: 1. Life is stressful. 2. Our constant desires make it stressful. 3. Freedom is possible. 4. Living compassionately and mindfully is the way to attain this freedom. 3 DEEP DIVE INTO VIPASSANA LIONSROAR.COM INTRODUCTION About those “constant desires”: Theravada practitioners don’t try to stop desire cold turkey.
  • The Buddhist Concept of Meditation Dr

    The Buddhist Concept of Meditation Dr

    The Buddhist Concept of Meditation Dr. W. Piyaratana Lecturer, Graduate School, MCU Thailand There are two main meditation practices in Buddhism as follows; Samatha (Tranquility Meditation) and Vipassanā (Insight Meditation). Regarding these two practices, samatha existed even before the appearance of the Buddha. There were ascetics such as Kāladevala, Rāmaputta Uddaka, and Ālārakālāma who practiced this and attained some types of absorptions and supernormal knowledge. Also some were able to enter their minds into the fine-material sphere and into the immaterial sphere. These attainments are known as aṭṭhasamāpatti or ‘eight- attainments’. A developed mind with these attainments leads one to realize the five-supernormal knowledges. (iddhividha or magical power, dibbasota or divine ear, dibbacakkhu or divine eye, paracittavijāna or knowing others’ minds, and pubbesaniāsānussati or recollection of previous births). The above attainments can be considered as the limit of samatha. In Aṅguttaranikāya, the Buddha mentioned the difference between samatha and vipassanā. According to it, by practicing samatha one can develop his mind and by practicing vipassanā one can develop his wisdom.1 By practicing samatha one can overcome the five hindrances or pañcanīvaraṇa. After overcoming these hindrances his mind runs towards attaining absorptions. However these attainments of absorptions are impermanent. As a result of the appearing of one of those hindrances, the absorption would disappear. Even if someone passes away along with a mind in absorption, it is possible for him to return back to a lower status at any occasion. This is because his mind is not free from all of the ten fetters (dasasṃyojana). Vipassanā is the practice which was new to Buddhism and it can be found only in Buddhism.

  • Humanistic Elements in Early Buddhism and the "Theravada Tradition"

    Humanistic Elements in Early Buddhism and the "Theravada Tradition"

    Humanistic Elements in Early Buddhism and the "Theravada Tradition" By Ananda W. P. Guruge ABSTRACT The paper begins with an examination of the different defuritions of humanism. Humanism primarily consistsof a concern with interests andideals of human beings, a way of peefection of human personality, a philosophical attitude which places the human and human val.Mes above all others, and a pragmatic system (e.g. that of F. C. S. Schiller and William James) whichdiscounts abstract theorizing and concentrates on the knowable and the doable. EarlyBuddhism, by whichis meant the teachingsof the Buddha as found in the PallCanon and the AgamaSutras, isdistinguished from other tradifions. The paperclarifies the error of equating Early Buddhism with the so-called Theravada Tradition of South and SoutheastAsia. Historically, the independent Theravada Tradifion with whatever specificity it had in doctrines came to an end when the three Buddhist schools (Mahavihara, Abhayagiri andJetavana) of SriLanka were unifiedin the twelfth century. What developed since then and spread to South andSoutheast Asia is an amalgam of allBuddhist traditions with the Pall Canon andits commentaries as the scriptures. With the reform measures in the eighteenth and the nineteenth centuries, the kind of modern Buddhism prevalent as "Theravada" is flexible, tolerant and reinforced by modernizing influence of Western Christian values. The paper analyses references to the Buddha's own autobiographical statements and other data in the Pali Canon and Commentaries and shows that the Buddha stood as a man before human beings to demonstrate how they could develop themselves by their own effort and reach the end of suffering. This final goal of peefedion is within the reach of every human being.

    Summer 2006 / 2548 Setting up a Monastery for Nuns in Victoria

    Volume 14 No. 10 Summer 2006 / 2548 Setting up a monastery for nuns in Victoria The interest among some members of the BSV in supporting a nuns’ community here in Melbourne resulted in setting up a working group at the end of last year. A meeting of this working group was called in January. But before we could even have the first meeting of this group, we had very good news from our president of the BSV (Cora Thomas) regarding a bhikkhuni with full ordination who has accepted Coras’s invitation to take residency here in Melbourne. Ayya Sucinta is of German origin and has completed 16 rains. Ajahn Brahmavamso has given his approval for us to go ahead with our plans. We expect her to be here in Melbourne in January 2007. More information about her will appear in the news letter in the near future. The working group (see report below) has now been invited to become a Society sub-committee and will be set up as such by the next meeting. At the meeting held in January 2006 we looked at the importance of educating the group and then the wider community of the rules and regulations of the order, respect for bhikkunis in Ayya Sucinta the same manner as for a bhikkhu to be promoted, the suitability of places for residency in order to meet some of the requirements specified by her and most importantly our policy in supporting and encouraging other women to join the community who are in or new to ordination. The importance of our serving the bhikkuni and accepting any gift of teaching from her was accepted unanimously.
