Enlightenment Factors

The Buddha's teaching on the seven factors of wisdom (enlightenment) is one of the clearest and most useful descriptions of the awakened mind. These are the natural qualities of mind that the Buddha described as the constituents of effective spiritual practice. A mind in which these factors are fully developed and balanced experiences freedom. We can learn through our meditation practice to identify and cultivate these qualities of mind and heart.  This podcast includes guided and silent meditation, a Dharma talk, and discussion on these enlightenment factors. 

"Just as, monks, in a peaked house all rafters whatsoever go together to the peak, slope to the peak, join in the peak, and of them all the peak is reckoned chief: even so, monks, the monk who cultivates and makes much of the seven factors of wisdom, slopes to Nibbana, inclines to Nibbana, tends to Nibbana." The Buddha
