The Arising and Nonarising of Mental Defilements

Defilements, or impurities, naturally arise during practice. George describes how this relates to vipassana practice, breaking down how the meaning of the word "vipassana" ("divide' and "see") connects to the different aspects of the sensing experience, and how triple noting can be an effective way to process these defilements. This continues Chapter Four of Mahasi Sayadaw's Manual of Insight.
