Welcome to Pa-Auk Nepal
Where we learn the Dhamma as taught by the Buddha, practice Samatha & Vipassanā meditation. In strict accordance with the standard Pali Texts, the Most Venerable Pa-Auk Sayadaw gives a practical overview of how a meditator develops absorption (jhana) with mindfulness-of-breathing, the thirty-two parts of one’s own body and that of others (near and far), repulsiveness of the body, the ten kasinas and four immaaterial states. Then the yogis use the ‘strong and powerful’ jhana concentration to perfect lovingkindness, compassion, appreciation joy, equanitmity, recollection-of-The-Buddha, foulness, and recollection-of-death. Next, with the light of jhana, yogis penetrate the delusion of compactness and see the subatomic particles of materiality, and see the ultimate materiality of one’s own body, that of others and throughout the universe; how likewise one can see the cognitive-processes of their own mind and that of others; how likewise one can examine their materiality and mentality of past lives, their present life and future lives (on this and other planes); and how likewise one can develop the remaining insight knowledges till the mind knows and sees Nibbana directly; it is fully aware of the (unformed) Nibbana as object.
