Inhalt - Beschreibung
Eating once a day: "what is hunger? Feel it."; Panna: wisdom is based on experience not thinking; Meditation: in the west, they teach meditation to get rid of unpleasant feelings, here we investigate them; "To overcome hell, you have to swim through the fire of hell"; Anger & lust: our experience will show us they are one and the same thing, we have to go beyond symbols, views and opinions, just the pure feelings; Forest tradition: in the west, you just need to sit long enough on your cushion to get enlightened, in the forest tradition, they go to fearful and lonely places, sit on the path of snakes and tigers; Comparaison given by the Lord Buddha of training a bhikkhu like a war elephant; "Easier to fight alone a whole army than to fight oneself": this is the teaching of the Lord Buddha; Investigating pain: observing, accepting and then asking the right questions until the heart knows; Pleasant meditation: don't be afraid to get attached when meditation is easy or pleasant, that's a trick of the kilesas to make you stop.
