01 06 Q1 I don't have any particular devotional practice. Is this like a Brahmavihara practice? 01:41 Q2 Regarding the relationship between citta and yoni as in yoniso manasikara, I relate to citta on a moment to moment basis. Yoni seems to be a seat of integrated wisdom. 20:15 Q3 Can you explain about metta practice. 27:31 Q4 Someone said resentment and aversion are natural conditions of the mind. They're not self and when seen as not self, they disappear. Can you comment please? 34:17 Q5 I would like to know if the inner tyrant is considered wrong view.

A talk given at the Insight Meditation Center of Western Mass with QnA.
Questions are précised: Q1 33:26 You were talking about the inner and outer skin. It seems this inner skin creates suffering. How do we start to be able to deal with this?Q2 37:34 Those words: Open, allow, let go are such a release. But something can happen that scares me, fear of annihilation. How do you practice with the insecurity of monastic life without being scared? Q3 42:03 In moving from control, do you go through indifference? Q4 43:50 Would you mind speaking about qualities of willfulness, striving, urgency, rigidity around meditation and holding attention in the body and that urgency. Q5 52:10 I feel very uplifted being so close to a monastic. Could you say something about the challenges and the fruits of being in robes for so long?
