The 9 days followed the unfolding of the four jhānas of form and the four formless arūpas according to the pre-reform traditions of ānāpānasati. The talks cover all but the first two days of the course, which was attended by approximately 70 meditators, 29 at the Centre, streamed to around 40 others online.
