Definition 釋義
Mindfulness — the quality of present-moment aware attention, clear and non-reactive. Sati is the seventh factor of the Eightfold Path (sammā-sati) and is developed through the four foundations of mindfulness (satipaṭṭhāna): contemplation of body (kāya), feeling tone (vedanā), mind (citta), and mind-objects (dhammā). The word also carries the meaning of 'memory' and 'recollection' — remembering to stay present.
