All beings Everywhere by their very nature seek happiness, but few realize that happiness can only be found by obtaining peace of mind.
The Buddha taught that peace of mind does not descend upon us by chance, but can be achieved by diligent practice of the Noble Eightfold Path. This path – the path to peace – unfolds in three stages: morality, concentration, and wisdom. Its culmination is the practice of Insight meditation, which leads directly to the bliss of liberation. In the present booklet, Sayadaw U Pandita explains in simple and lucid language the basic steps to be taken in the development of insight meditation. His instructions, which centre around the “four foundations of mindfulness,” will be beneficial to both beginners and experienced meditators.
