Content / Description
Investigation: need to have sharp knife before investigating, i.e a stable and calm mind; Investigation: it's not intellectually sorting things out, it's questioning ; Delusion: it's hidden behind greed & hate, you can't see how it works; The path: you need to know little (the 4 Noble Truths, Anicca/Anatta/Dukkha) but practice a lot; Kamma & caste system: if someone is low caste because of kamma, still we should have compassion and try to help if we can; Kamma: you can't nullify bad kamma with good kamma; Time of death: good to remind the person the good things he/she did to feel lighter and not to go down.
