Inhalt - Beschreibung
Happiness: “Happiness is born in our heart, but also anger & free”; Dukkha: if we could be contented the way the world is, the way people are, we wouldn't be dissatisfied, we would be happy and contented all the time; 3 characteristics of this Universe: anicca, anatta & dukkha; The 4 Noble Truths; Sila and the 5 precepts; What is 'I'? We identify ourselves with the 5 groups/khandhas (body, feelings, thoughts, memory & associations and consciousness) but they are constantly changing and out of our control; How to deal with moods; Samadhi: a place to rest the mind before doing the work (of investigation/panna); Body contemplation: everything that comes in contact with the body is nice & beautiful (food, cloth etc.) everything that comes out is disgusting (spittle, sweat, falling hears or nails etc.), why? Misunderstanding of body contemplation in the West: you don't have to make the body loathsome, you will see it naturally; The 4 stages of liberation and the 10 fetters to overcome; Kilesas: it's a real fight not to let the mind going out.
