Whilst the practice of meditation is very important, so too is the basics of how we relate to the people in our lives every day. The quality of the relationships that we develop with our family, work colleagues and the people we meet with every day is going to have a strong bearing on the quality of our minds and the quality of our lives, so it pays to give wise attention to this according to Ajahn Vayama.

This was Venerable Kassapa’s first visit as a teacher to The Armadale Meditation Group and we hope to see more of him in the future. Venerable commenced his instruction by explaining why he meditates. Venerable used his own life experiences to highlight the benefits of meditating whilst asking us to have Positive Actions In Our Day. Whilst Venerable is referring to the Noble Eightfold Path, he used his own experience in lay life to demonstrate how right action and right speech actually work.

Venerable lead the group in a longer than usual meditation beginning with a body sweep. Towards the middle Venerable moved us gently towards a breath meditation. An easy meditation well suited to beginners and experienced meditators alike.

After the meditation Venerable continued his talk on positive actions and the benefits before opening to questions from the group.

Ajahn Nyanadhammo gives a talk on speculation (in Pali ‘papanca’) and how it ties up so much of our mind’s effort, and yet so rarely correlates with reality – and so often gets us in to trouble!

Sometimes, unpleasant feeling is too intense to be mindful of. Ajahn Hasapanna teaches us how to be aware of our unpleasant feelings. Firstly by noticing how unpleasant feelings arise in our body and then by breathing in peace and exhaling unpleasant feelings i.e. letting them go. The unpleasant feeling will eventually reduce or cease.

We suffer unnecessary from thinking too much about problems in our life. These problems are never-ending. The only way to stop suffering is to stop our unwholesome thinking mind, because then we can develop the wisdom and clarity to solve our problems.
