Does Noble Eightfold Path include both Samatha and Vipassana?
In the following video, a Sri Lankan monk Mankadawala Sudassana Himi said that NEFP is both Samatha and Vipassana
He said that the Samadhi aspect of NEFP is Samatha and the Panna aspect of NEFP is Vipassana.
According to him the object of Samath is to bring the mind to the present moment.
Then you see the Anicca,Dukkaha and Anatta in the present moment to develop Panna.
The Dhamma talk is in the Sinhalese language.
