  Singleness of Mind

  Aug 16, 202643 min

  The first jhana quality is 'singleness of mind." Singleness of mind is focus. When developed in this quality we're able to put our mind where we choose to put it. And keep it there. In this talk, Peter Doobinin explains how we develop this factor of jhana ... and why it's important to do so. This is the second talk in a series of dharma talks on "The Jhana Qualities" offered in November 2025. "Over there are the roots of trees; over there, empty dwellings. Practice jhana, monks. Don't be heedless. Don't later fall into regret. This is our message to you." (MN 19)

  The Jhana Qualities

  Aug 9, 202640 min

  The development of concentration, the Buddha teaches, is the heart of the path. The Buddha's concentration, the concentration he learned to develop and then taught is known as jhana. We develop jhana, as the Buddha did, by the practice of mindfulness of breathing. In doing so, it is in our best interests to focus our efforts on developing the 'qualities of jhana.' This is the first in a series of talks given by Peter Doobinin in November 2025 on "The Jhana Qualities." "Over there are the roots of trees; over there, empty dwellings. Practice jhana, monks. Don't be heedless. Don't later fall into regret. This is our message to you." (MN 19)
