Paying Attention to Feelings Inside | Ajahn Dhammasiha at Dhammgiri Forest Hermitage


Listen Later

Ajahn Dhammasiha encourages us to turn our mind away from constant preoccupation with external events and distractions, and instead to pay attention what's going on inside of our mind.He uses the example of the pleasant and unpleasant feelings we experience right now:The wordly, sensual pleasant feeling of just having eaten a really nice meal.The spiritual pleasant feeling of making good Karma ('Puñña') through generosity, and from experiencing the emotion of faith/confidence in the Triple Gem; and from developing virtue and samādhi.The worldy painful feeling of having lost a love one recently.The spiritual painful feeling ('Saṃvega') of experiencing impermanence, and yearning for the final release from sickness, death and all suffering through the relaization of Nibbāna.Next, we gradually substitute the worldly sense of loss with the spiritual urgency to realize the escape from all impermanent phenomena. And we replace the worldly pleasant feelings with the spiritual happiness from Dāna, Virtue and Meditation.www.dhammagiri.org.auwww.facebook.com/dhammagiri-forest-hermitagewww.youtube.com/channel/UCJINt0JJBfFm_x0FZcU9QJwwww.tinyletter.com/dhammagiri/archive.
