Mindfulness of Breathing Quotes

“the five hindrances (sensual desire, anger, sloth-and-torpor, restlessness-and-worry, and doubt).”
― Bhikkhu Anālayo, Mindfulness of Breathing

“In order to keep adjusting the practice moment by moment, the same quality of investigation, which at the outset served to discern the length of the breath, can be employed throughout the remainder of the practice of mindfulness of breathing. In this way, the scope of investigation broadens from the length of the breath to the overall condition of our body and mind, all the while performing the function of keeping the mind interested in, and attentive to, what is taking place.”
― Anālayo, Mindfulness of Breathing
