The Gradual Training

The Buddha's Step-by-Step Guide for Awakening

Beschreibung

"The Gradual Training" (anupubbasikkhä) is the name given to a series of practices that are to be undertaken in order to progress on the spiritual path. It appears to be the curriculum for the monks and nuns in the Buddha's sangha. If one were to become a monastic, here are the practices that were to be done. But these practices are also highly applicable to lay practitioners. Multiple of these practices will probably be familiar to anyone who has practiced extensively in any Buddhist tradition. This book examines each of the practice in detail.
