Session of Q&A; Uncomfortable feeling when receiving: how to understand the mechanics of the heart; Restlessness while going back to the world: guard the senses with sati; Happiness: people look for happiness in material things and capitalism relies on greed for those things; Western societies rely a lot on greed and selfishness; Stories of Ajahn Martin's upbringing; Psychology: Freud is one of the greatest mind; Modern psychology, classical psychology and Dhamma; Modern science: what we cannot perceive (like heaven/hell/the citta) does not exist; Is Dhamma scientific? It depends on the definition of “scientific”, in Dhamma you can prove the laws exposed by the Lord Buddha with your own eyes and your own practice; Common sense vs. knowledge: we use to have more common sense, now we have more knowledge; How to know if someone has attained some stages of enlightenment: you need to be at least at his level or above to know this; Attachement to bad moods: there is always a pleasant part in them.
