Opis

This book offers an original phenomenological description of mindfulness and related phenomena, such as concentration (samadhi) and the practice of insight (vipassanā). It demonstrates that phenomenological method has the power to reanimate ancient Buddhist texts, giving new life to the phenomena at which those texts point.

Recenzje

"A unique book exploring Husserlian methodology that intersects with Indian Buddhist thought by tuning-in through a close textual analysis of Satipa hana (foundation of mindfulness). Lively everyday examples and clear explanations are a treat for both novices and experts alike."

Jay Goulding, York University, Canada

"This is a good introduction to an important topic mindfulness in Indian Buddhism in terms of a phenomenological interpretation."

Wing-Cheuk Chan, Brock University, Canada
