BREATHING THROUGH THE WHOLE BODY: THE BUDDHA’S INSTRUCTIONS ON INTEGRATING MIND, BODY, AND BREATH
Book ID/图书代码： 06568011B50327
English Summary/英文概要： Explores the Buddha’s own words on breathing meditation for healing, wholeness, and a deeper understanding of his teachings
• Explains the complete series of steps in the Buddha’s Satipatthana Sutta for refining awareness of the breath, from posture and center of gravity to extending breath awareness beyond the nostrils, lungs, and abdomen to the entire body
• Shows that stillness in meditation refers only to the mind, not to the body
• Reveals breath to be a direct agent of healing for chronic tensions and an agitated mind
Explaining how stillness in meditation refers not to a rigid and frozen body but to a quality of mind, Will Johnson examines the Buddha’s own words at the core of the Satipatthana Sutta: “As you breathe in, breathe in through the whole body; as you breathe out, breathe out through the whole body”--an instruction often overlooked in the majority of Buddhist schools. Exploring the Buddha’s complete series of steps for deepening awareness of the breath, he shows how to invite natural, responsive movement back into the posture of meditation by extending breath awareness beyond the nostrils, lungs, and abdomen to the entire body--a practice that unifies the breath, body, and mind into a single shared phenomenon.
Showing how the flow of breath is directly affected by chronic tensions in the body and in the mind, Johnson explains that when breath starts flowing through more and more of the body, it becomes a direct agent of healing, massaging and melting any areas of tension it touches and moves through, whether physical or emotional. By breathing through the whole body in accordance with the Buddha’s instructions on breath, the body becomes much more comfortable, the mind starts resolving its addiction to thinking, and meditative practice deepens much more rapidly, allowing the teachings of the Buddha to be directly glimpsed and revealed.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 探讨了佛陀关于呼吸冥想愈合，整体性的话，对他教诲更深入的了解 •解释佛陀的念住经中精炼气息的完整步骤，从姿态和重心去超越鼻孔，肺部和腹部，整个身体的气息意识
•揭示在沉思的寂静，仅指头脑，而不是身体
•揭示对治疗慢性紧张和激动的心理的直接见效药剂
解释如何在沉思的寂静，不是指僵化和冰冻的身体，而是健康的心灵，约翰逊考察佛陀念处经的核心 ，用他自己的话说：“当你吸入空气，呼吸通过整个身体;当你呼出空气，通过全身呼出” ——这是在广大佛教学院往往忽略了一个指示，探索佛陀的一系列完整步骤，为深化了呼吸意识，他介绍在打坐的姿势镇中引入自然，通过超出鼻孔，肺部和腹部，整个身体的气息意识的呼吸意识拓展——这种做法呼气，使得身体和心灵统一，使之达到一个单一共同现象。
显示气息流是如何直接受到身体和心灵的慢性紧张的影响，约翰逊解释说，当呼吸开始流经更大的身体部位，就变成了直接的愈合剂，按摩和熔化任何紧张部位，影响身体或情绪。按照佛陀在气息上的指示，通过全身呼吸，身体可以变得更舒适，头脑开始摆脱其思维成瘾，冥想实践深化更加迅速，佛陀的教诲，就这样直接被瞥见和显露出来。(兼职翻译-LNL)
