Reading from AN9.3, Ajahn Sucitto reviews the 5 things that lead to maturation of mind to becoming completely liberated. Receiving supportive company runs throughout. It’s not something we do but something we associate with. It involves not the active aspect of energy but the receptive aspect, so we can absorb the skilful, give it time to settle and ripen so wisdom can arise.

Attention is a constant thing, so if you don’t place it, it will find its own place, and it will generally place itself into suffering – what could be, should be, things we can’t quite manage. Place it somewhere useful, starting with the body. This is the foundation. [10:03 instructions on breathing and breath energy] With good clear breath energy, mind can establish mindfulness. Careful attention prepares the ground so there’s something suitable to be mindful of. [20:10 begin silent sitting meditation]
