The REAL Difference Between Concentration and Insight Meditation: None

In modern meditation culture, there are usually two styles of meditation that are taught.
One of them is called insight meditation and the other has many names, but let us call it ``serenity meditation'' for now.
While we have gotten used to this distinction, the Suttas paint a rather different image when it comes to the practice.
If you have never studied the Suttas, you might be surprised to learn that they NEVER talk about any of the modern styles of meditation, let alone make a distinction between those two kinds!
Modern traditions falsely distinguish two meditation styles.
The Suttas do not do that at all, but recognize two key ingredients to success: discernment and serenity.
There is no method that gets you Right serenity!
The Suttas just talk about virtue that leads to serenity of heart and discernment that leads to permanent freedom!
Instead of separating the two, see them as different aspects of the same.
