Wonderful Dhamma. I practiced various meditation techniques in the past with that wrong view that they will bring about magical results. Despite finding it illogical. Viewing five clinging aggregates as dukkha, practise to directly see it, to abandon its cause, to experience cessation and develop the path should be the way.

This “order” vs “disorder” way of presenting suchness is brilliant. Thank you.

Any moment there is idea or thinking arise, greed hate delusion are in it. knowledge of what is panna in the pratice is misunderstood by many meditation. practitioners. Right view arise when he know what is rightly know the meaning of panna. More discussion more idea and result more views. Panna is as the BUDDHA say SEEING THINGS AS IT REALLY Are In vipassana practice there are samatha tools in it ad well as panna tools. Many misunderstood that vipassana does not arise calmness/samadhi, they are wrong.

Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu

He’s right, but only about %97 of the time. If one pays attention for a sustained period of time, long enough for the mind to cease its normal, habitual patterns, then you will have a special experience, the experience of direct knowledge. This is what happened when Charles Darwin sat on the Galápagos Islands watching the various plants and animals long enough for centuries of Christian cosmology to cease coloring his perception, his preconceptions dropped and he directly knew this dependent origination of species, which he called evolution. This same process can be seen within when the mind is observed consciously from a place of satisfaction, not wanting anything, happily looking. But I’m sure Ajahn Nyanamoli knows he can’t speak for all of humanity even if he sounds like he is

Bhante. If one should aim to maintain Samadhi/mindfulness regardless of external circumstances where does seclusion fit in, in all this? Maybe seclusion is necessary first in order to "develop" that Samadhi and once developed, one can get out of seclusion and live surrounded by other people? Thank you very much.

Bhante, are you then referring to the notion of ' intention' behind the watching of the mind ?

31:36 great eg 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️

🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹

What specifically is meant by "restraining the senses"? Is it the practice of abandoning the desire and aversion?

Bhante, can you discuss Nandiya sutta?

Meditation objection is to weaken the kelisa by samadhi and then rooted it out with panna(knowledge to aniccha, dukkha, anatha) The four foundation are to be the main subject to comprehen as it arise in the mind and body. Practitioners must know clearly what is the 4 foundation of mindfulness mean and clearly acknoledge and aware of it while practicing meditation. To exactly know Mind object has arisen (Sangkara ) and the concious of knowing it. Sangkara lead to body and arise feeling sensation (vedana) has arisen and if not eradicate it will return the vedana back to the mind and manifest it further. By seeing the cause of arisen ignorance (sangkara) that leads to sanna till vedana, one immediate cut it from continue growing that lead to karma formation. By preventing new karma formation at every moment in your meditation practice, one will suddenly extinguish the flame of birth when the panna that cut hindrances(kelisa) are fully develop. When one understood the connection of the link between mind, mind object, body and feeling. Then one will progress in the vipassana meditation till one become Sotopanna, Sakadagami, Anagami Arahat. Enlightment will be fully understood and all speculative conventional idea disappeared completely.

This absolutely pwns all the dogen zazenists.

When you should be able do meditate under all circumstances, why then is there a need for seclusion in higher practice? I see how both have reasons for themselve, but they seem to contradict each other. Shouldn't you be able ( practicing rightly ) to obtain arahantship, while being surrounded by the lay life? Why is there a need to abandon your circumstances, when you should be able to practice regardless of them?

Fantastic upload! Correct breathing techniques are really important especially for those struggling with anxiety and panic attacks because they actually work! Keep it up!

isn't the need to adhere to virtue or maintain it wrong view too? That virtue is also wrong view?

Buddhists who meditate do not do so in a vacuum without any regard to the other path factors or teachings. The beginning premise is why purely secular meditation will not result in enlightenment, and should not be used as a blanket invalidation of contemporary Buddhist meditation practices.
