Knowing Through Dispassion
37:24
|
|
Ajahn Sucitto
|
|
|
Mindfulness offers the ability to sustain, to notice, and therefore to be wise. Through this we can experience feelings that arise as energy in the body. Stepping back, there is a shift from being in these to a knowingness of them, with resultant dispassion. This is the liberating process of insight.

Generating Skilful Feeling
34:30
|
|
Ajahn Sucitto
|
|
|
Mindfulness is about knowing how one is affected. We come to know where impulses and intentions/motivations come from, whether these are spiritual or worldly. With skilful intention, there is the possibility to generate pleasant feeling within ourselves. We can find joy in our own presence rather than through external means.

Energy,view and Anapansati
37:43
|
|
Ajahn Sucitto
|
|
|
When the mind is relieved from pressure, we can review the experience of what’s running through the mind, feeling the changes in terms of somatic energy. This energy body has primary intelligence, and retains learnt impressions. Through mindfulness of breathing, we calm and soothe this energy body – with resultant clarity.
