2025-06-23 Mindfulness in Daily Life 30:40
Allen Atkins
Those in attendance chose this topic. A free form discussion of why this is useful and how to do it followed. It ended with brief instructions on one technique taught by Tongpulu Sayadaw. His method rotates through 10-30 seconds or so of: Seeing, Hearing, Posture (Sitting, Standing, Walking, or Laying down), and touching. Just nonconceptual noticing. For instance, for Seeing, imagine being a baby in a crib. You have no words to describe what you see but just notice the raw color and form. Same for the other three meditation objects.
