Luangta: he saw the future 20/30 years ago that he would help to save the Thai nation from the crisis. Avijja: is the master in our heart and we believe it without questioning it. Khandhas: all the 5 groups (body/feeling/memory and association/thoughts/consciousness) constantly change, arise and cease but the citta/observer doesn't change, doesn't cease. Finding the right teacher: if your practice improves then stay with him even if he kicks you out. The Lord Buddha just pointed out the path, up to us to go along it. Examples of kamma and retribution. Citta: the mind doesn't grow old, so we can always train it even on our last day.
