For this week's FBA Podcast we have Kamalashila speaking on the occasion of relaunching his book Buddhist Meditation. In "Tranquility, Imagination and Insight" he beautifully reveals his thoughts on how the Buddha was imbued with confidence without conviction. He seemed completely at peace with himself which lead to friendliness in all his communications. His life, his example, the embarkment on the three trainings of behavior, meditation and wisdom combine in the practice of satisampajana – mindfulness and clear comprehension. Mindfulness was the Buddha's core practice – Cultivating the Way of Awakening.
