Kāyānupassanāiriyāpathapabba]]** - And how it works for all 3 types of people: 1) [[Puthujjana]], 2) Sekka (learner / apprentice), and 3) one fullly established on Dhamma. ###### (33m in) Vilas discussed how one's **Mindfulness** develops as one comes into Buddha Dhamma, following ***iriyāpathapabba*** - **@@@@** #dhamma/beginner A person comes to Dhamma when **shaken by the [[Anicca]] nature** -- even after doing all that he knows, he still **couldn't achieve happiness**. - When that happens, he can start to see a little bit of **[[Anatta]]** nature (i.e. "this is not mine"), where his **Craving is Slightly reduced**, due to encountering with the Dissatisfaction nature (i.e. Dukkha) of this world. - @@ He also starts to see that when he says **"I am hungry"** or **"I am sweating"**, "I" is not creating the **hunger or the sweat**, but rather, the body is. - He also discover that there is the **"Mind"**, which is the commander of any bodily actions. - **@@** And after seeing the **[[Sankhata|Conditionality]]** of everything, he stops working on the "**Outside**" (i.e. external conditions), but rather start to focus on the "**Inside**" (where there is only the [[Pancupadanakkhandha|5 Aggregates]]) - **@@** #eryu/insight The more the [[Avijja]], the more someone thinks that **"everything is Mine"** (i.e. [[Sakkaya-ditthi|Atta]]) — both on the **"Outside" (external conditions) and "Inside" (5 aggregates)!!** And the spiritual path (wisdom) is to keep removing that ignorance! ^75eeae ###### (1hr in) - (1hr1m) Vilas gave a quick explanation on [[Jhana#Etaṁ santaṁ]] ##### (1h8m in) - Started explaination on **[[MN10 Satipaṭṭhānasutta#1.3.
