Buddhist Dictionary by NYANATILOKA MAHATHERA
ānāpāna-sati:'mindfulness on in-and-out-breathing',is one of the most important exercises for reaching mental concentration and the 4 absorptions (jhāna,q.v.).
In the Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta (M. 10,D. 22) and elsewhere,4 methods of practice are given,which may also serve as basis for insight meditation. The 'Discourse on Mindfulness of Breathing' (Ānāpānasati Sutta,M. 118) and other texts have 16 methods of practice,which divide into 4 groups of four. The first three apply to both tranquillity (samatha,q.v.) and insight-meditation,while the fourth refers to pure insight practice only. The second and the third group require the attainment of the absorptions.

In M 118 it is further shown how these 16 exercises bring about the 4 foundations of mindfulness (Satipaṭṭhāna,q.v.),namely:1-4 contemplation of the body,5-8 contemplation of feeling,9-12 contemplation of mind (consciousness),13-16 contemplation of mind-objects. Then it is shown how these 4 foundations of mindfulness bring about the 7 factors of enlightenment (bojjhaṅga,q.v.); then these again deliverance of mind (ceto-vimutti,q.v.) and deliverance through wisdom (paññā-vimutti,q.v.).
