    Dharma on Demand | Ep12. The Eightfold Path: Right Mindfulness

    Dharma on Demand | Ep12. The Eightfold Path: Right Mindfulness Right Mindfulness (Samyak Smriti/Sati) is at the heart of the Buddha's teachings. The Buddha says that the Dharma, the ultimate truth or things, is directly visible, timeless, calling out to be approached and seen. The ultimate truth, the Dharma, is not something mysterious and remote, but the truth of our own experience. It can be reached by understanding our experience, by penetrating it right through to its foundations. This truth, in order to become liberating truth, has to be known directly.
