The attitude of ‘conviviality’ is an attempt to encourage you to see the holy life as something beautiful and enjoyable, and to open to it rather than just shut down...excerpts from the book Intuitive Awareness

Trusting in Simplicity (page 147)

Awareness is your refuge: Awareness of the changingness of feelings, of attitudes, of moods, of material change and emotional change: Stay with that, because it’s a refuge that is indestructible. It’s not something that changes. It’s a refuge you can trust in. This refuge is not something that you create. It’s not a creation. It’s not an ideal. It’s very practical and very simple, but easily overlooked or not noticed. When you’re mindful, you’re beginning to notice, it’s like this. – Ajahn Sumedho, Amaravati Buddhist Monastery. www.amaravati.org
