Principles of Dhammakaya Meditation

Dhammakaya Meditation is based on four principles: three methods of concentration and the Principle of the Center. The three concentration techniques are: Meditating on an object of visualization (Kasina), Recollection of Lord Buddha’s virtues (Buddhanussati),and Mindfulness of breathing (Anapanasati).

And the Principle of the Center specifies that these three methods of concentration are all applied simultaneously at the center of the body as follows:

• Position 1: The Nostril Aperture
• Position 2: The Eye Socket
• Position 3: The Center of the Head
• Position 4: The Palate Terminus
• Position 5: The Throat Aperture
• Position 6: The Center of the Body (Navel Level)
• Position 7: The Center of the Body and the Proper Position for Meditation (Two Inches above Navel Level).
