What kind of meditation led the Buddha to break free from the endless cycle of birth and death?
In this eye-opening episode, we explore the lost key to enlightenment — the unique and revolutionary form of meditation rediscovered under the Bodhi tree: Jhana and Vipassana. Unlike any mystical or ritual practice of his time, the Buddha’s path centered on one core method: Right Concentration (Sammā-Samādhi) — not momentary silence, but sustained, liberating awareness that transforms the entire structure of the mind.
Discover:
- Why the Buddha rejected both sensual indulgence and painful austerity - The four profound Jhanas that purified his mind and led to awakening - The connection between Right Concentration and Insight Wisdom (Vipassana) - How mindfulness of body, feelings, mind, and phenomena — the Four Foundations — become the living path to Nibbāna - The truth about "wrong concentration" (Micchā-Samādhi) and why most meditators today misunderstand it - How witnessing the rise and fall of phenomena gives rise to true liberation
This is not just theory — it’s the actual method the Buddha used over 49 days that led to the cessation of suffering. And it's available to anyone willing to look deeply and practice rightly.
🪷 Come hear what no one ever taught you clearly about the Buddha’s meditation — and why it still holds the key to awakening today.
