The exposition here of mindfulness (Sati) includes that of the Path, and no exposition of the Path is complete without he inclusion of mindfulness. Whosoever neglects the fourfold practice of mindfulness he misses the Path, whosoever practices mindfulness has found the Path (<em>Sa\u0271yutta<\/em>&nbsp;V,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/obo.genaud.net\/dhamma-vinaya\/pts\/sn\/05_mv\/sn05.47.033.wood.pts.htm\">179, 180,<\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/obo.genaud.net\/dhamma-vinaya\/pts\/sn\/05_mv\/sn05.52.001.wood.pts.htm\">294<\/a>).

But a few observations may help the student of it. Etymologically Sati is Memory. But as happened at the rise of Buddhism to so many other expressions in common use, a new connotation was then attached to the word, a connotation that gave a new meaning to it, and renders &#8216;memory&#8217; a most inadequate and misleading translation. It became the memory, recollection, calling-to-mind, being-aware-of, certain specified facts. Of these the most important was the impermanence (the coming to be as the result of a cause, and the passing away again) of all phenomena, bodily and mental. And it included the repeated application of this awareness, to each experience of life, from the ethical point of view. &#8216;Thus does he cultivate those qualities which ought to be practiced, and not those which ought not. That is how repetition is the mark of Mindfulness,&#8217; says N\u0101gasena<sup>[<a href=\"https:\/\/obo.genaud.net\/dhamma-vinaya\/pts\/dn\/dn.22.rhyt.pts.htm#n2\">2<\/a>]<\/sup>, in complete accord with our Suttanta.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p><a><strong>[323]<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;When Christians are told: &#8216;Whether therefore ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God,&#8217; [Ed.: 1 Corinthians 10:31] a way is shown by which any act, however lowly, can, by the addition of a remembrance (a&nbsp;<em>Sati<\/em>), be surrounded by the halo of a high moral enthusiasm; and how, by the continual practice of this remembrance, a permanent improvement in character can be obtained. The Buddhist idea is similar. But the remembrance is of what we should now call natural law, not of a deity. This has been made a corner-stone of the system of ethical self-training. The corresponding cornerstone in the West is conscience; and indeed, so close is the resemblance in their effects that one scholar has chosen &#8216;conscience&#8217; as a rendering of&nbsp;<em>Sati;<\/em>&nbsp;\u2014 wrongly, we think, as this introduces a Western idea into Buddhism. The curious notion of an internal monitor, distinct from the soul, yet speaking independently of the will of the man himself, is confined to animistic modes of thought. Buddhaghosa uses it, indeed, as a simile, to explain the connotations of&nbsp;<em>Sati;<\/em>&nbsp;but he expressly pours scorn on any idea of a separate entity.<sup>[<a href=\"https:\/\/obo.genaud.net\/dhamma-vinaya\/pts\/dn\/dn.22.rhyt.pts.htm#n3\">3<\/a>]<\/sup><\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\n\n<!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>On the other hand though&nbsp;<em>Sati<\/em>&nbsp;([Skt.:]&nbsp;<em>Sm\u1e5bti<\/em>) does not occur in any ethical sense in pre-Buddhistic literature, it is possible that the Buddhist conception was, in one way, influenced by previous thought.

The Suttanta is a discipline \u2014 the supreme discipline \u2014 in ethical introspection. And in Buddhist introspective analysis,&nbsp;<em>dhamm\u0101<\/em>&nbsp;(elsewhere translatable now by &#8216;things,&#8217; now by &#8216;qualities&#8217;) are, more especially, &#8216;cognoscible objects.&#8217; These are related to&nbsp;<em>mano<\/em>&nbsp;(consciousness as apprehending), just as each kind of sense-object is related to one kind of sense-organ; thing-seen, for example, to sight. A cognoscible object is any presentation (German,&nbsp;<em>Vorstellung<\/em>), that has got beyond the stage of mere sensory re-action. It is an idea or perception in the wider sense used by Locke: \u2014&nbsp;<em>&#8216;Whatsoever is the immediate object of perception, thought, or understanding.&#8217;<\/em>&nbsp;But neither cognoscible object, nor presentation, is a term which lends itself with sufficient simplicity and impressiveness to ethical homily.
