Gratitude: Count Your Blessings | Guided Buddhist Meditation | Ajahn Dhammasiha | Dhammagiri | Kataññu Katavedi

Listen Later

In this guided meditation, Ajahn Dhammasiha encourages us to recollect those fundamental things we usually take for granted, but which are in reality great blessings.

Instead of having a long list of complaints, rather let us consider what we have to be grateful for:

  • Born as a human being in a peaceful, wealthy country like Australia
  • In reasonable good health with unimpaired mental faculties
  • At a time when the teaching of Buddha is still available
  • When we have 'Kalyaṇa-Mitta' (good spiritual friends)
  • When we have Forest Monasteries
  • And when we have at least some confidence/faith in the Triple Gem
  • (...)
  • ( There are many more, feel free to fill in all the other blessings you can find in your own meditation 😊 )


    • When we count our blessings, we feel contenment, satisfaction and joy in our meditation, and the mind can settle down easily.
