During this talk, Peter provides his perspective on the function of the Seven Awakening Factors, which culminate in the full realization potential of the Four Noble Truths.  He describes three categories within the seven:  Mindfulness, Investigation of Mental Phenomena, and Energy, the persistent ability to maintain a flow of attention and self-regulation that fosters Awakening,  The remaining four factors develop as the result of how skillfully the first three are matured.  Next week’s talk will further the review with a focus on the Awakening Factors of Joy and Tranquility, and the following week will review the final two factors, Concentration and Equanimity.

Here are the notes Peter used during the talk:  mindfulness investigation and energy are drivers of awakening factors
