"Wise, energetic disciples of the Buddha meditate frequently. Working hard, they practice the Dhamma, giving it top priority. They experience the incomparable freedom from bondage, Nibbāna." - Dhammapada Verse 23

In this episode, I share the advice given to me by the monks at the monastery. How to balance Dhamma practice while being a Lay disciple, and some thoughts for cultivating Saṃvega (Spiritual Urgency) and Renunciation. Hope you find it helpful.

May all sentient beings be at ease.

"Those who are persuaded by lust and laziness, 

are weak and not disciplined. Emotions overpower 

such people easily as the wind overpowers a weak tree."

- Buddha

In this podcast I discuss the causes of lust, and the practical methods taught by the Buddha to control and overcome it.

Suttas for reference:

Mahānidāna Sutta - Digha Nikaya 15

Do Devas and Bodhisattvas exist?

May you all be well and happy.

In this episode we dive into a very important discourse of Buddha "The Fire Sermon" which contains very powerful insights to guide us in this dark world. Seeing what we are going through today as a society, this discourse can help us to put things into perspective and show the way out of ignorance and suffering.
