Episode 18 – Taming and Opening the Mind

Two additional streams run through the Profound Treasury teachings: mindfulness practice and awareness practice • mindfulness, also called shamatha, means “peace” and refers to the stillness and stability of mind • awareness, also called vipashyana, is the counterbalance to mindfulness. It refers to the insight and clarity of mind • so we settle the mind, and we clarify and brighten the mind • sometimes we need to brighten up a bit more, and at other times we need to calm down a bit more • shamatha is down to earth, steady, here-and-now; vipashyana has a sense of relaxation and spaciousness • the two streams provide a sense of balance
