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.
2006-06-17 Glorious Failure 57:54
Over time we experience of the limitations of body and mind. What we rely on doesn’t actually work. Life is a failure, but we can make it a glorious failure. The practice of Dhamma-Vinaya helps keep the spirit bright and impeccable in what we do. Dhamma means to establish ethical clarity, mindfulness, lovingkindness; Vinaya is bringing these ideals and aspirations forth into a living context.

2006-04-22 Opening, Suffusing, Releasing 61:06
A lot of suffering is related to a particular mode of doing, an involuntary overwhelming doing. Through mediation we cultivate a different way. By shifting the mind to presence, mind opens to a subtler aspect of doing on the feeling, subjective level – suffusing. We come out of the grip of how we usually attend. This is release.
