The greatest gift is the
gift of the teachings
 
Ajahn Sucitto's Dharma Talks
Ajahn Sucitto
As a monk, I bring a strong commitment, along with the renunciate flavor, to the classic Buddhist teachings. I play with ideas, with humor and a current way of expressing the teachings, but I don't dilute them.

2011-09-10 Guided Meditation - Directing Attention To Arising 48:07
Begins with guidance to establish a relaxed, steady, upright posture, wishing well throughout the body. When a balance of energy comes, begin turning the mind around. Get back to where the thoughts and memories are coming from. Direct yourself to the place of arising, before it takes form. The sense of formlessness and openness can then be experienced.

2011-09-10 Meeting The World 41:21
Practice meeting your reality directly, just being with what arises without getting involved. The spiritual faculties come alive and support you. When there’s nothing you can’t meet, what else do you need? Through this cultivation, you have a calming, cooling refuge place in your life.

2011-09-03 Floating On The River Of Mind 41:34
When we meditate, we notice that mind is like a river, constantly moving along, continually generating conditions. One thing we can always come back to is paying attention. When we want or don’t want something, it generates stress. Just be open and pay attention. This unbiased attention is most useful. Mind settles by just paying attention.

2011-08-30 Guided Meditation 55:41
Mind is endlessly moving, meandering, outflowing. Meditation is about bringing the mind back through the use of particular reference points. Use the guided meditation to firmly, kindly, repeatedly bring the mind back.

2011-06-12 Guided Meditation - Life and Death 39:49
Death contemplation triggered the Buddha's search for the deathless. It is a recommended regular recollection that helps sieve the relative from the more profound. Guidance is given to contemplate various aspects of living and dying with questions for deeper reflection.
