190: Breath Meditation and Insight
In this Dhamma talk, Sayar Myat explains how mindfulness of breathing (Ānāpānasati) can be practiced as both concentration (samatha) and insight (vipassanā) meditation. Drawing from the Pāli Canon and commentaries, he outlines the 16 steps of breath meditation and the eight practical techniques used to develop mindfulness and clarity.
The talk also explores how observing the touch sensation of the breath — rather than the concept of air or nostril — transforms concentration practice into true insight meditation. By mindfully noting each sensation, from gross to subtle, the yogi directly experiences mind and matter (nāma and rūpa), the three characteristics of existence — impermanence, suffering, and non-self — and progresses toward liberation.
