Content / Description
Practice in the West: just to feel ok, to feel better and not digging deeper & going through difficulties; Who are you? What is “Self”? Not the body, the feelings, the thoughts or the memories, we have not the control of them; Explanation of the 5 precepts; Kamma, hell and heaven; The roller coaster of birth and death; Sotapanna: only them, we are sure to reach Nibbana and not to fall in the lower realms; Ajahn Martin's personal practice: up to 18 hours a day, eating once a week, not concerned about anything else than practice and the will not to be reborn again; The hide-out for the kilesas is in the heart; Meditation is observing, not controlling; Body contemplation: stay focus on only one part for one hour (or more).
