Mindfilness is to be aware of our speech, thought and actions in accordance to the teaching of the Buddha. In short, we have to be mindful of what the Buddha taught us and to practice it in daily life, finally to realise the truth and attain that blissful mental state -Nibbana, which is eternal.

Feeling in Buddhism is mainly refering to physical feeling. Emotional feeling comes under "mind' , 'mental formation' or 'perception'

Ok, I understand a little better. Thanks for the help! But what is feeling-"tone"?

[tetherball23]

The "feeling" they are refering to is actually best translated as "feeling-tone" and it refers to the unpleasant, pleasant, or neautral feeling-tone that accompanies any event arising at the six senses (touch, taste, smell, sight, audio, and mind, which is considered a "sense door" in Buddhism).

[kirk7524875248]

I get so frustrated when they continually gloss over "Feeling". I undertand "Pleasant, unpleasant, neither pleasant nor unpleasant." But nobody explains if this is simply physical feeling that the Buddha is referring to or also emotional feeling. Does that also include emotional feeling? And why do these teachers always dismiss that important distiction? Perhaps they don't know themselves.

IN THE beginning I thought that you were going to talk about awareness. Aware of the fly and so on. I am lost at the point of the talk. Thanks anyways
