Old School Concentration Meditation

This is meditation is guided in the kammatthana tradition of Thai Forest Buddhism, a lineage that was started as return to early buddhist simplicity and pure practices, grounded in the discourses of the Pali Canon, which are amongst the oldest Buddhist scriptures. Kammatthana practice focuses on cultivating tranquility through very simple and easy to follow steps involving using the breath as a means to develop physical and mental ease. Hopefully this meditation will do this wonderful tradition justice.

Keep coming back to this, sometimes we just need simplicity, thank you K.X.

This is the kind of meditation I'm drawn to but can find difficult. This was the most simplistic guide to doing it. This will be a daily practice for me. Thank you 🤘

Great to see you on here! Thank you for your presence and practice

I deeply appreciate your words and the way you speak them. The cadence is perfect for me and you combine instructions with a teaching, so thank you. I’m grateful I found this.

Quite effective with clear, concise instruction. I really appreciate the space allowed for practice in this meditation. Thank you!

Deeply appreciative for this guided meditation. Many moments of teaching and instruction punctuate what is primarily silence (and is without music). Voice is not dreamy or soothing but measured and master of fact which I felt was pleasantly different. Centered in a Thai Buddhist tradition I wasn't previously familiar with. Thank you!
