Ānāpānasati
พุทโธ ลมหายใจ คำบริกรรม — วิธีไหนเข้าฌานได้จริง?
Summary
The speaker compares three methods he has actually practised — buddho, ānāpānasati and Transcendental Meditation — and says which took him into jhāna.
Whether a mantra is required is checked against the Canon, which is a separate question from whether it works.
The route described runs from rapture through pleasure to equanimity. The talk stays on concentration and does not cover vipassanā.
Key points
Necessary and effective are different questions
A mantra may genuinely help some practitioners without the suttas requiring one.
The comparison comes from practice, not from books
Having done all three carries more weight than reading about them.
Rapture is the trap to watch
The pleasantness makes people stop there instead of going on.
The right method need not be the same for everyone
The conclusion is the speaker’s own and is not offered as a formula.
