Noting rising - falling of the abdomen
Is also Anapanasati of the Buddha
Samadhi and the path to wisdom may differ
Concentration may not be stable
There may be different
Kilesas, moods and mental objects at times
That come to interfere with the meditation
We must use sati to note things in this way
Whether you can obtain peace or tranquility
Or how much peace you can get
That's not so important
What's important is being mindful in the present
With our noting
Just this is enough for paññā to be born
After you get familiar with meditation
Peace will come to you
Consider the breath going in and out
Note “Rising”
Note “Falling”
It is just the air being inhaled itself
When the breath goes out
The abdomen falls
Reflecting on the wind element
Just via the bodily rupa itself
Breath goes in and out
Rising thus, Falling thus
That is Anapanasati
