In January at UBC, Lama Mark lead us in meditations and gave teachings on the many facets of classic Buddhist mindfulness training and how they relate to some discoveries in neuropsychology. He explained the Four Foundations of Mindfulness and gave some profound instructions from the Mahamudra and Dzogchen traditions. Lama Mark gave an introduction to the classic ten meditations of Mindfulness (Recollections), showing the diversity of strengths developed, and how they lead well beyond "bare attention" to a profound and normally hidden aspect; a naturally vital, spontaneous-wakeful-presence merged inseparably with compassion for all beings.
