Foundations of Mindfulness + Q&A
This talk / Q&A was originally posted on Ven. Yuttadhammo Bhikkhu’s YouTube Channel. To watch it on YouTube kindly click here.
00:00 Welcome
01:44 On the topic of... Foundations of Mindfulness
34:27 What is the overall objective of satipatthana, as in the usefulness we are to get from being mindful? I don't mean that "it leads us to liberation” but what use does mindfulness itself do for us?
37:22 When there are several distractions at once, should I choose to note one first, and then go after another, or should I just note what is the most prominent in each moment?
38:20 Would we need meditation if the whole world was peaceful? What did people do before meditation was discovered, and is there something higher than meditation that we haven't discovered yet?
43:19 How to deal with friends who are not into meditation? Many friends invite me to dinners where they consume alcohol. I personally do not like to go there, but I will have to go because of friendship.
47:48 I can do walking meditation way longer than the sitting meditation. Should I keep it this way?
49:13 I’ve been meditating for many years now, but recently I feel I’m somehow "regressing" and I’m not experiencing the benefits. My mind is all over the place and I’m suffering more. Is this normal?
53:51 Whenever I try to clear my mind and focus on breathing, I find myself hyperventilating and getting anxious. How does one relax into mindfulness as a beginner?
57:02 What do you think of enduring pain during the meditation?
58:01 Is it possible to meditate while going through daily chores like during work, exercise, eating etc.? How does that look like?
58:33 How do I know when to start walking meditation, as a beginner?
59:11 If I evoke a negative emotion out of someone even if it wasn’t my intention, am I karmically responsible or am I only responsible for my state of mind?
1:03:10 How do I develop a constant state of awareness?
1:05:15 As a meditator, am not inclined to trying new things/activities. Does this mean I have a fixed mindset and should I cultivate growth mindset?
1:10:15 Sadhu...
