MN 10 The Foundations of
Mindfulness
-
Satipaṭṭhāna
Sutta
This is
the most important
discourse by the Buddha
on the training of
mindfulness meditation,
with particular
attention given to
developing insight. The
Buddha
begins by declaring that
the four foundations of
mindfulness are the
direct
path leading to the
realization of Nibbāna.
He then gives detailed
instructions on the four
foundations: the
contemplation of the
body, feelings,
mind, and mind objects.
