Recharge - Find Refuge
38:39

Ajahn Viradhammo
|
|
|
Ajahn Viradhammo, states the importance of finding time to get away from problem solving, and daily tasks. Places of silence like monasteries, afford one the possibility for this. When we get away from recursive thought, and the need to problem solve, we can finally, settle into a silence, that allows one to become aware of awareness. To make that awareness a refuge, rather than all the noise in the "foreground".

What is "Fulfilment"?

Ajahn Viradhammo
|
|
|
Ajahn Viradhammo, contemplates, the means we have to attain fulfilment.
He reflects, on Generosity, as means, living an ethical life, via the precepts, and finally on "Humility". Humility here as a that which is free from the sense of me and mine, or Ahankara Mimankara. Acknowledging the uncomfortable/unpleasant, but residing in the sense of the background, the awareness, that is always here, always present and unchanging.

Sense restraint

Ajahn Viradhammo
|
|
|
This talk was given on a visit to Cittaviveka Buddhist monastery (UK) in Jul 2026.
Ajahn Viradhammo, reflects on sense restraint. Without sense restraint attention falls on the conditioned, rather than the unconditioned. We see the foreground, as opposed to the "background" of awareness. While it is possible to "notice" phenomenon, without sense restraint, the mind doesn't truly settle into silence without sense restraint, and the falling away of the noise caused by input from the senses. It is in the silence of the mind, that attention on awareness can flourish.
