Buddhist History - Week 5

Apologies for belated posting. Summer holidays and retreat beckoned. Here's the recording of our meeting on 30 August, continuing our study of the second 500-year period of Buddhist history (from Conze's "Buddhist History"), from 0 AD to 500 AD. Among other topics, we covered:

• Mindfulness in the Mahayana and mindfulness in "insight meditation" traditions
• The integration of practice into daily life
• The importance of nonduality and going beyond extremes
