Jhānas and Insight

A retreat on jhānas and insight at the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies, with Leigh Brasington teaching via Zoom and Meagan Chambers in person.

"What I want to teach is the Jhanas as a meditation technique and how that technique fits into the broader spectrum of sila, samadhi, pannya: morality, concentration, wisdom." — Leigh Brasington, interview at leighb.com/intervu.htm (Cloud Mountain Newsletter interview)
