Daylong Retreat: The Seven Factors of Awakening

The Seven Factors of Awakening are mindfulness, investigation, energy, rapture, tranquility, concentration, and equanimity. These are qualities of mind whose cultivation leads to liberation of the mind.  Several of these qualities are also part of the path of Transcendental Dependent Arising that we have been studying this year at Seattle Insight.  The seven factors are often categorized into two groups—energizing and calming—with mindfulness acting as the central balancing factor. In this daylong we will explore these seven factors– how they unfold in meditation and how they work together to support insight and bring the mind to freedom.

Basic instruction in insight meditation requested.
