Four Foundations of Mindfulness: Mindfulness of Phenomena (dhammas)

Eli will conclude our exploration of the Four Foundations of Mindfulness with the Fourth Foundation: Mindfulness of Phenomena (dhammas).This foundation invites us to look beyond individual experiences and begin noticing the patterns and conditions that shape them. Rather than asking, “What’s wrong with me?” we begin asking, “What conditions are present?” Together we’ll explore how the Buddha’s teachings including the Five Hindrances serve not as abstract concepts, but as practical maps that help us recognize the habits of mind that lead toward suffering and those that lead toward freedom. 2026-06-30-Eli-Mindfulness of Phenomena Young Urban Zen
