Q1 00:06 Sometimes at home I fall asleep meditating. I feel at peace and focused but just relaxed too much. Can you advise? Q2 13:23 Could you please give some advice on how to prevent attachment and clinging arising? Q3 18:52 What are the factors for wisdom to arise? Q4 25:52 What are the purposes of not eating after 12:00? Why can we eat only a little bit, like some cheese? Q5 32:32 I love my family and want them to know who I am. Fear of losing them is somehow close to the fear of losing part of what I am. I like the Vedic term jiva that may also be called individuality. Is it possible that jiva has no identity, no limits and no attachments? Are the inter-connection of compassion and loving kindness, forms of attachment? Q6 40:58 How best to support or love someone whose mind is exhausted and burnt out? Q7 45:15 We've heard about right effort and right view, what about right action? They seem very similar. Q8 49:37 What are the best or most beneficial hours for meditation? Q9 52:28 When labelling feelings with the three qualities anicca, dukkha, annata, is it a good idea to do it also with feeling of joy or piti?

Q1 What is the goal of a meditation session other than maintaining awareness of what arises and ceases in the present moment? 07:45 Q2 What is the goal other than being enlightened? 14:11 Q3 how can we deal with remorse regarding situations where in hindsight we feel we should have acted? 26:13 Q4 how can I make disturbance the objective meditation? Can you give advice on how to deal with aversion? 34:07 Q5 What about resistance to walking meditation? What are the benefits of walking meditation? 42:00 Q6 There's knowledge in my mind that one action is not conditioned to the following one. There's a gap between the feelings and craving. With skilfulness we can stop this unskilful movement. Can you comment please?

What Do We Rely On in a World Like This?

What do we rely on in a world like this? When everything feels marred by conflict and division, violence and chaos, the mind easily fixates on fear, confusion, loss of faith. But if we keep fixating, our lives begin to organize around those energies. Taking refuge is a way of interrupting that pattern. Refuge not as a belief statement, but more like a commitment or a resolve to keep moving to align with a particular orientation to life. That we choose, again and again. And this view shifts dependency from external conditions to awakening, to the truth, to the field of practice.
