The Direct Path is an introduction to the four foundations of mindfulness, the path of practice of early Buddhism. This path is a sequential system of practice established in the time of the Buddha. Although 2500 years have passed, it is still generally recognized by all Buddhist religious traditions and scholars that as long as one sequentially practice this method, one can experience benefits in a very short period of time; not only that, but it is generally suitable for people of different character, a flexible practice that does not conflict with daily living or modern lifestyles.
