What is a skilllful mindfulness practice which evaluates and investigates our experience? Ajahn Karunadhammo discusses five mental factors which can be used to assess our experience: contact, feeling, perception, intention and attention. With these, we can recognize unwholesome habitual tendencies and create different responses to experience in line with Dhamma. These mental factors are not personal, although we often take the factor of intention for example, to be me or mine. In a mature practice, we can stop the world of fabrication altogether and allow the momentum of the mind to unwind, relax, let go. This talk was given on July 1, 2017 at Abhayagiri Buddhist Monastery
