Unique
is Anāpānasati
Breathing Meditation!
Thus have I heard. At one time the Blessed One was living at
Sāvatthī, in
the
palace of Migāra's mother, in the Eastern Park, together with many very well
known elder disciples: Venerable
Sāriputta, Mahā-Moggallāna, Mahā-Kassapa,
Mahā-Kaccāyana, Mahā-Kotthita, Mahā-Kappina, Mahā-Cunda,
Ven. Anuruddha,
Revata, and Ānanda. These elder Bhikkhus were teaching & instructing the new
Bhikkhus, who thus achieved successively higher distinction
and discrimination!
Then, surveying this silent Bhikkhu-Sangha, he addressed the
Bhikkhus thus:
I am content, Bhikkhus, with this progress; I am content at heart,
Bhikkhus,
with this development. Therefore, strive still more strenuously to attain
the
unattained, to achieve the unachieved, to realize the unrealized. I
will stay..
