Anapanasati is mainly covered in the Anapanasati Sutta.
Some of these instructions (perhaps additional instructions) are also written elsewhere: for example in the Anapana Samuthiya, Girimananda Sutta, the Sattipattana Suttas, Kayagatasati Sutta, etc.
What are the additional instructions or variations covered elsewhere, not covered in the Anapanasati Sutta?
I hope that answers will do one or more of the following:
- Reference suttas (apart from the Anapanasati Sutta) which include Anapanasati instructions
- Quote the instructions, examples or guidance which are different or which are additional to that given in the Anapanasati Sutta
- If it already given in the Anapanasati Sutta without variation, no need to quote or mention.
- Comparison with Sanskrit and Tibetan text is also welcome.
