Dispassion, Cessation & Letting Go to Underlie All Dhamma Practice | Ajahn Dhammasiha | Viraga Nirodha Patinissagga
In the last Tetrad of Ānāpānasati, the last four steps of Breath Meditation, the Buddha teaches us to breathe in and out focussing on:
- Anicca - Impermanence
- Virāga - Fading Away of Passion = Dispassion
- Nirodha - Ending/Cessation
- Patinissagga - Letting Go
However, these four contemplations do not apply only to breath meditation.
In fact, they should be underlying principles of our whole Dhamma practice: Whether it's generosity and kindness, or purifying our ethical behaviour through keeping precepts, or practising sense restraint, or cultivating any meditation object - all of it should be done with these four modes, these four guidelines informing and directing our efforts in bhāvanā.
