2016-01-02 It’s Like This Now 58:51
Ajahn Sucitto
This one slogan can be a reminder of how to sustain mindfulness as we leave the retreat. What we’ll notice is that most of the time, right now there is dukkha caused by the underlying ‘me’ sense. Meditation is an essential part of our spiritual training, but not the only part. Working in community is an invaluable aspect of spiritual training – it provided a context where we can get past the ‘me’ sense and get to the ‘we’ sense.

2016-01-02 Swapping Out Clinging for Sati 29:44
Ajahn Sucitto
Grasping occurs when the citta is not comfortable. It gets overwhelmed by feeling and experience. The difference between sati and clinging – they both apprehend things – is sati is very patient. It simply bears things in mind with no particular goal. Sati can spread and expand to include the grasping, clinging reflex when it arises in the experience of embodiment. This is the place for realization.
