The Satipatthana Sutra is a discourse from the Pali Canon, the earliest collection of his enlightenment teachings. It’s a step-by-step road map that shows us how we can turn our attention to our own minds and puzzle out the things that make us suffer.

Over the course of 7 days on the Island, we’ll take time to unpack this beautifully detailed text and apply it to our own experience.  You don’t have to know the sutra or have any Buddhist experience to get a lot from this week. It’s all about being curious about our minds.
