Often we experience ourselves as a complex interweaving of layers of habits, beliefs and emotions. Investigating the obvious aspects of the outer layer, and being aware of our attitude about that layer, the layers gradually dissolve. The pairing of the wisdom of acceptance with the clarity of mindfulness guides us through our moment to moment experience towards freedome.

2008-07-20 Come Into The Body 44:34
Ajahn Sucitto
Download Listen
When the cascade of thoughts and feelings come rushing in, rather than, ‘What am I going to do about it?’ ask, ‘Where am I right now?’ It doesn’t seem relevant, but it brings us out of the scenario and into the body. Steadied in the flow of feeling, we can then learn the particular skill of being with rather than being in them.
