Ajahn Brahmali: "Five Factors That Support Meditation (AN 5.53)" Dhamma-Talk, Med, Q&A 28.07.24

Описание: Ajahn Brahmali talks about the Metta Sutta with a focus on developing your own virtue, and expands on the rarely discussed, five factors of Right Effort as taught by the Buddha (AN5.53). These five include confidence/faith in the Buddha (Saddha), having good digestion and being healthy, non-deceitfulness and being honest at the right time, establishing the energy (viriya) and lastly, having the wisdom into the nature of arising and passing away. The Q&A which follows includes questions on how to deal with past khamma that bothers the mind, meaning of consciousness in Nirvana, dealing with the ego when faced with difficult situations, how to balance harmless worldly pleasures with the meditation practice and how to respond to negativity coming from someone else.
