In this video, Ajahn Amaro describes how mindfulness is not just a technique, but a way of being that can transform our relationship to ourselves, others, and the world. He explores how the way mindfulness is often taught in the West, as a tool for stress reduction and productivity, tends to miss the depth and richness of the Buddhist tradition. In particular, he highlights the importance of cultivating the ethical dimension of mindfulness, which includes developing wisdom, compassion, and a strong sense of purpose.
