Reintroducing Mindfulness
The original concept of mindfulness is based on the Buddhas teaching of Satipattana which means introspection or awareness about self by placing attention inside. The practice of original mindfulness aims to purify the mind. Similar to water, the human mind can become polluted, which is why it is essential to practice mindfulness in its original form. By doing so, we can effectively eliminate any contaminating particles and achieve a clear and peaceful state of mind.
SEE FOR YOURSELF
HOW [NORMAL LEADERS] BECOME SUPERNORMAL
ManoLead, after years of research into the original form of mindfulness (better termed as “introspection”) and centuries-old meditation techniques, has developed the model “Supernormal Eightfold Process for Introspective Leadership” to assist individuals to become better leaders who are driven by wholesome values.
Supernormal Eightfold Process for Introspective Leadership (Hewawasam, 2022)
UNDERSTANDING IS KEY
The [Science] Behind Our Techniques
It is vital to understand that although the “Supernormal Eightfold Process (SN 56.11) for Introspective Leaders” is grounded in authentic teachings from the Buddha, it does not attempt to summarize or conclude the Buddha’s central outlook on experience. Instead, the “Supernormal Eightfold Process (SN 56.11) for Introspective Leaders” adapts selective insights from Bhante Punnaji’s interpretation of the Buddha’s teachings. These ideas have then been researched and modified to serve the distinctive role of corporate leaders. (Hewawasam, 2022)
MORE THAN COACHING
We Combine [Practice of Mindfulness] with Business Ideas
HAVE YOU SEEN YOU?
[Giving up the awareness of existence and taking up the awareness of experience]
Introspective individuals should be aware of what is happening within: what is happening in the body? What kind of feelings are there? What kind of emotional reactions are there? And what thoughts are being entertained? Attention should be focused on those—similar to watching a movie inside. You can experience this through the exercise of practicing doing things slowly.
Cognitive Dissonance
( Vicikicca)
Cognitive Consonance
(Samadhi)
The ID, EGO and SUPER EGO[Sigmund Freud]
Famous for psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud introduced the concept of ego and id and their relationship which are in parallel with the relationship between emotions and intellect found in Buddha’s teachings (on which the original practice of mindfulness is based).
Psychotherapy for Leaders
The Art of [Mindful] Leader
Conflict can be resolved only by undoing the personalization (anupadana) – Buddha (MN.24)
The cognitive gets subordinated to the affective. The cognitive splits into two – one taking the side of emotions and the other taking the side of thinking. Conflicts arise when people tend to personalize either the affective emotions or the cognitive reasoning, resulting in power resting on the side (cognitive reasoning or affective emotion) that is being personalized.
Perception (Vinnana)
[Activities of the nervous system]
Becoming aware of a mental image(rupa) identified through name or identity(nama).
Cognitive (EGO/Mano)
[Conception, thinking, or reasoning]
Cognition/Intellect precedes all experiences (DP,1).
Emotion/Affective (ID/Citta)
[Emotional excitement]
“Emotions dominate the world, Emotions entice us all,Emotions is that one thing to which all are spellbound (SN 1. 62).”
A [GROWTH] TECHNIQUE
Conscious relaxation of tension for [Leaders]
Our aim is to raise the leaders’ consciousness to a level beyond a normal leader – [WE NURTURE]
METTA
[Cultivation of universal benevolence]
For a leader, a healthy way of leadership is to maintain a tranquil mind and be dominated by reason and not by emotion. As explained by both Buddha and Sigmund Freud, all our emotions are self-centered. Unselfish good behavior is possible only when the mind is free of selfish emotions. Emotions are disturbances to the mind and body. When we practice cultivation of universal benevolence, a leader becomes interested in the welfare of others for their sake. True love and mental health is the absence of self-centered emotions.
Selective thinking for [Leaders]
It is important to understand that the emotion when aroused accompanies tension and discomfort in the body. Become aware of the tension and relax the tension consciously instead of releasing the tension in action unconsciously.
THE PRACTICE

We help you with the original techniques of practicing mindfulness
We bring our full range of original teaching and talent at the service of each and every one of you. We want to bring a splash of colour into a seemingly grey world and become a global leader in practice of mindfulness in the business world.
Add Practice of Mindfulness to your daily life
When the cognitive process is able to gain control over the blind but powerful affective process, the cognitive process experiences freedom from guilt and remorse, and therefore experience a sense of satisfaction and delight.
Help you to understand who you are
It is important to understand that normal leaders started with a conflict between their blind emotions and the reality observed by the rational. The irrational emotions are playing havoc and the rational cognition is attempting to gain control over the difficult emotion.
BIBO [Breathing Meditation]
This is not an exercise in concentration, but one of relaxing the body and calming the mind. When the body is relaxed and the mind is calmed, attention naturally shifts to the breathing. We observe the breathing to assess the extent to which we are agitated or calm. By relaxing the breathing, we relax the whole body and calm the mind.
OUR Path
Mindfulness is the [Seventh Step] of the
Eight Step Process
Our practice of mindfulness is a progressive ascending of a flight of steps in the Supernormal Eight-fold Way known as The Noble Eightfold Path (ariya attangika magga). Aligning with Bhante Punnaji’s teaching, ManoLead uses the word Supernormal instead of the common term “Normal” because of the term ‘Ariya,” used by the Buddha, means something above the normal. Our services and people set us apart. Everything we do to transform leaders are meticulously planned down to the finest details.
