00:00:00 Bhante Vimalaramsi; retreat; teaching Westerners; lack of sangha
00:05:10 The value of ānāpānasati is missed by most teachers; most of Western Buddhism is highly intellectual and not experiential
00:10:51 Intellectual frameworks and enthusiasm; the monk who couldn’t learn anything
00:17:16 The experience of the breathing meditation: take a long deep breath; reducing to 10 from 20 breaths; box breathing
00:34:15 Changing the wait time between breaths: energising and relaxing
00:41:35 Both short and long breaths are longer than normal breaths; short breathing has its value
00:46:06 Slightly longer breaths; down to three breaths a minute
00:54:52 The importance of the out breath; from 1st to 2nd jhāna
01:06:06 Spend time on this practice and play with it
01:08:57 Controlling the breath is the method
