Mindfulness Training with Devin Ryback
Mindfulness Meditation is a Simple Yet Powerful Spiritual Practice
“Mindfulness” has become quite a buzzword. The spiritual practice of mindfulness meditation has been applied in the context of different psychological therapies, such as mindfulness based cognitive therapy. Mindfulness has become a part of the corporate wellness scene, being touted by wellness coaches as a means of enhancing employee wellbeing and productivity. It has been scientifically demonstrated that experienced practitioners of mindfulness have a healthier response to stress.
But all of this buzz about mindfulness misses the true purpose of practicing: to connect with the True Nature of Reality.
Mindfulness meditation is the spiritual practice which Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha whom most people know about, used to attain his enlightenment beneath the bodhi tree, although he used a specific form of meditation called Vipassana.
Mindfulness meditation, in its purest origin, before it was adulterated by modern Western culture with its addiction to productivity and “more-more-more”, is a means of attaining enlightenment. Enlightenment meaning, the Pure Awareness of What Is.
And what is that? What is It that truly Is?
Everything. Without judgement. Without the distortions of the mind. Without the beliefs and stories we hold onto so very tightly (and, for the most part, unconsciously).
Why Practice Mindfulness Meditation?
So, why practice mindfulness meditation? Why learn this sacred art of awareness, if not to enhance your productivity at work or cultivate inner peace? Yes, these are natural side effects of practicing mindfulness meditation, but they are not the purest reason.
The purest reason to practice mindfulness is to see clearly who and what you really are.
You are awareness. You are soul. You have a body, a mind, and a spirit, but you are not these things. And through the daily practice of mindfulness meditation, you will come to know this truth without a doubt, and beyond any belief.
Beneficial Side Effects of Mindfulness Meditation
Although the true purpose of mindfulness meditation is to attain enlightenment, practicing mindfulness does have beneficial side effects which are practical to ordinary human life. These side effects may include…
Knowing that you are not the mind
Knowing that you are not defined by the thoughts in the mind
Deep and lasting inner peace
Enhanced compassion and empathy for others
Self-compassion and self-love
Forgiveness of yourself and others
Dissolution of judgements about yourself, others, and the world
Calmness replacing anxiety and worry
The sneaking suspicion that absolutely everything is alright

Through his practice of mindfulness meditation, Devin established a solid foundation for exploring all other spiritual traditions and techniques with which he now has more than a decade of experience. He learned — remembered — his true nature, and saw clearly that he is not the mind nor the thoughts which fill it. He removed judgements and beliefs about himself and the world which before had made his life far more challenging.
