The Buddhist Publication Society
The BPS is an approved charity dedicated to making known the Teaching of the Buddha, which has a vital message for all people.
Founded in 1958, the BPS has published a wide variety of books and booklets covering a great range of topics.
Its
publications include accurate annotated translations of the Buddha’s
discourses, standard reference works, as well as original contemporary
expositions of Buddhist thought and practice.
These
works present Buddhism as it truly is— a dynamic force which has
influenced receptive minds for the past 2500 years and is still as
relevant today as it was when it first arose.

Notes:
1
The extracts from both works have mainly been taken, with a few
alterations, from Bhikkhu Ñāṇamoli’s translation (see Note on Sources).
Explanatory additions by this writer are in brackets, those by Bhikkhu Ñāṇamoli in parentheses.
2 Comy.: This is to show that, for Arahants, Nibbāna is established by their own experience.
3 Comy.: For others it is established by inference based on the words of the Master.
4
The paragraphs beginning with * are translated by the author of this
essay; those without, by Bhikkhu Ñāṇamoli (taken from the notes to his
translation of the Visuddhimagga).
5 These are some of the altogether 33 designations of Nibbāna in SN 43:12-44.
6 This refers to Abhidhammic classifications in which Nibbāna is included, occurring, for instance, in the Dhammasaṅgaṇī.
7
The theosophical variant, is, e.g., represented by neo-Buddhist groups
in Britain and elsewhere which otherwise have done good work in
introducing Westerners to Buddhist or to their conception of it.
The
Vedantic influence is conspicuous, e.g., in the utterances of
well-meaning Indians, among them men of eminence, maintaining the basic
identiey or similarity, of the Vedantic and Buddhist position
concerning Ātman.
This is, by the way, quite in contrast to opinion on that subject, expressed by the great classical exponents of Vedanta.
See Vedanta and Buddhismby H. v. Glasenapp (Wheel Publication No. 5).
Mahayanistic influence may be noticeable in some representatives of the former two variants.
But also in the Mahāyāna literature iteslef, the positive-metaphysical extreme is met with in varying degrees.
Ranging
from the Madhyamika scriptures where it is comparatively negligible, up
to the Yogāvacara school where Asaṅga uses even the
termsmahātmaandparamātmain an approving sense
(seeMahāyāna-sūtrālaṅkāra-śāstra and Asaṅga’s own commentary.)
8 These are the twenty kinds of individuality-belief (sakkāya-diṭṭhi).
9 See The Discourse on the Snake Simile, tr. by Nyanaponika Thera (Wheel No. 47/48).
10 I.e., outside the aggregates taken singly.
11 I.e., outside the aggregates as a whole.
12 Pali: attanā’va attānaṃ sañjānāmi.This refers to Vedantic conceptions.
Quite similar formulations are found already in the Saṃhitās, the pre-Buddhist Upanishads, and later in the Bhagavadgītā.

Verse 273. The Eight-fold Path Is Best
Of paths the Eight-fold is the best,
of truths the statement four,
the passionless of teachings best,
of humankind the Seer.

Explanation:
Off all paths, the eight-fold path is the greatest. Of the truths, the
greatest are the four noble truths. Detachment is the greatest of all
states. And, of all those who are two-footed ones, one who possesses
eyes. The Buddha is the greatest.
Verse 274. The Only Path To Purity
This is the path, no other’s there
for purity of insight,
enter then upon this path
bemusing Mara utterly.

Explanation:
This is the path. There is no other for the achievement of clarity of
insight. You must follow this path to the total bewilderment of mara.
Verse 275. The Path To End Suffering
Entered then upon this path
you’ll make an end of dukkha.
Freed in knowledge from suffering’s stings
the Path’s proclaimed by me.

Explanation:
If you follow this path, you will reach the termination of suffering.
This path has been revealed by me, after the extraction of arrows.

Verse 276. Buddhas Only Shows The Way
Buddhas just proclaim the Path
but you’re the ones to strive.
Contemplatives who tread the Path
are freed from Mara’s bonds.

Explanation:
The effort must be made by yourself. The Buddhas (the Teachers) only
show the way and direct you.Those contemplative meditators, who follow
the path, fully and totally escape the snares of death.
Verse 277. Conditioned Things Are Transient
When with wisdom one discerns
transience of conditioned things
one wearily from dukkha turns
treading the path to purity.

Explanation:
All component things, all things that have been put together, all
created things are transient, impermanent, non-constant. When this
realized through insight, one achieves detachment form suffering. This
is the path to total freedom from blemishes.
Verse 278. All Component Things Are Sorrow
When with wisdom one discerns
the dukkha of conditioned things
one wearily from dukkha turns
treading the path to purity.

Explanation:
All component things - all things that have been put together - all
created things are sorrow-fraught. When this is realized through
insight, one achieves detachment from suffering. This is the path to
total freedom from suffering.
Verse 279. Everything Is Soul-less
When with wisdom one discerns
all knowables are not a self
one wearily from dukkha turns
treading the path to purity.

Explanation:
All states of being are without a self. When this is realized through
insight, one achieves detachment from suffering. This is the path of
total freedom from suffering.
Verse 280. The Lazy Miss The Path
Though time to strive, not striving,
while young and strong yet indeed,
weak-minded and irresolute:
one finds not wisdom’s way.

Explanation:
If an individual does not make an effort even at a time when exertion
is due, if a person is lethargic even when he is young and strong; if a
person suppresses the wholesome thoughts that arise in his mind, if he
is lazy, he will not find the path to wisdom.
Verse 281. Purify Your Thoughts, Words And Deeds
In speech ever watchful with mind well-restrained
never with body do unwholesomeness.
So should one purify these three kamma-paths
winning to the Way made known by the Seers.

Explanation:
If one is well-guarded in speech, well-restrained in mind, and if one
refrains from physical misdeeds, that person will certainly attain the
noble eight-fold path realized by the sages.
Verse 282. Way To Increase Wisdom
From endeavour wisdom springs,
lacking effort wisdom wanes:
having known this two-fold path
either to progress or decline
so should one exhort oneself
that wisdom may increase.

Explanation:
From reflection and concentrated meditation refined wisdom arises.
Through the non-practice of concentrated wisdom erodes. Once these two
paths - one leading to progress and the other to decline - are
recognized, one must conduct one’s self to increased wisdom.
Verse 283. Shun Passion
The wood cut down but not a tree
since it’s from wood that fear is born.
Having cut wood and woodedness
O bhikkhus be without a wood.

Explanation:
Monks, cut down the forest of defilements. But, do not cut down the
trees. Fear comes from the forests of defilements. Clear both the forest
and the undergrowth. Having done this achieve the state of Nibbana.
Verse 284. Attachment To Women
As long indeed as woodedness
of man to women is not cut
so long in bondage is one’s mind
as milch-calf to the mother cow.

Explanation:
As long as a man’s mind is attached to women, even minutely, like a
little undergrowth that has not been cut down, so long will his mind be
attached like a suckling calf to its mother cow.
Verse 285. Path To Peace
Cut off affection for oneself
as a hand a lily in the Fall.
Cultivate this peaceful path,
Nibbana by the Buddha taught.

Explanation:
Just like a person plucking out a lily with one’s own hand, pluck out
your self-attachment. Cultivate the path to Nibbana, as advocated by the
Buddha.
Verse 286. The Fear Of Death
Here shall I spend the Rains,
here the Winter, here the Summer.
Thus speculates the fool,
the danger he knows not.

Explanation:
In the four months during retreat, winter or summer in a chosen place,
the ignorant plans unaware of the threat of death.
Verse 287. Death Takes Away The Attached
For one who has a clinging mind
and finds delight in babes and herds
Death does seize and carry away
as great flood a sleeping village.

Explanation:
Men are proud that they process children, cattle and other forms of
wealth. They tend to be proud that way because their minds are overcome
with blemishes. Floods sweep away a sleeping village, taking along all
its people and their possessions. In the same way, death comes unaware
and sweeps along the people however proud they are of their possessions.
Verse 288. No Protection When Needed
No sons are there for shelter
nor father nor related folk,
one by the Death-king seized upon
in kin no shelter finds.

Explanation:
When and individual is gripped by death, sons cannot protect one. Not
even one’s father can shield a person from the grip of death. Nor can
one’s relations come to the rescue.
Verse 289. The Path To The Deathless
Having understood this fact
the wise by virtue well-restrained
swiftly then should clear the path
leading to Nibbana.

Explanation:
Being aware that no one can rescue you from death, the wise person, who
is restrained and disciplined, should clear the path to Nibbana,
without any loss of time.

How to Be Mindful While Swimming
“Swimming
often devolves into autopilot behavior in which you focus only on
getting in the distance you’ve planned, or ‘following the black line.’
This is a lost opportunity. Swimming can also be an immensely rewarding
opportunity to practice mindfulness. By swimming mindfully, we can
transform routine lap sessions into an immersive form of moving
meditation.” — Terry Laughlin, founder of Total Immersion Swimming.
Begin each swim with an intention to be fully present in the water, rather than to just get laps in.
As
you begin swimming, focus on each stroke. Notice the feeling of the
wetness on your skin. Feel yourself — buoyant — moving through water.
Focus
on your breath. As you take breaths, shift your focus from a stroke
rhythm to a breathing rhythm, noticing the unbroken alternation of
in-breaths and out-breaths. How does your body accommodate to this
rhythm?
Align
head and spine. Visualize being towed forward by a line attached to the
top of your head, so your head and spine are both lengthening and
always moving in the direction you want to travel.
As
you continue with your strokes, focus on the feeling of your arms
entering and leaving the water. Feel the cool, dry air on your arms
briefly; then the wet thickness of the water for a longer period of
submersion.
Listen to the sounds of swimming. Hear the splashes, the bubbles and your own breath. How quietly can you swim?
Continue your strokes, noticing how far your arms are reaching in front of you, striving to feel “taller” with each stroke.
As you complete your swim, be grateful for your ability to merge mind and body, moving like water.
Comments
My doctor 🧑‍⚕️
advised me to try swimming to avoid a slip disc operation. I tried and
it helped me. I’m now practising mindful swimming. The swimming 🏊‍♂️ pool is my hospital and a meditation 🧘 centre.-JC
After
serving in Iraq for 3 years, swimming was the only way I could relax
when I came back. The requirement to breathe brought oxygen back into my
brain, which was still in a constant state of hypervigilance. The
coolness of the water replenished my parched body. The blue color of the
water dazzled my eyes after seeing nothing but brown. And the rhythmic
motion and quiet splashing gently brought peace and calm into my body.
Pure healing.-SEB

If
you want to swim well, you are always thinking about breath, stroke,
alignment, etc. Ask anyone, coach or swimmer, in a master’s swim
program. Or anyone in any formal swim program for that matter. BTW, the
black line, interval, pace, completing the set, minding the time clock,
all require mindfulness.
Arguably,
anything you want to do well required mindfulness. For example, if you
play a musical instrument, you have to be mindful of (pay attention to)
intonation, timing, dynamics, etc.
