2021.12.15 | Attachment to our bodies and minds is a heavy burden. As soon as one attaches, the experience of heaviness arises right there.

2021.04.15 | In this talk, Ajahn Anan reflects upon the importance of mindfulness, humility, clarity and calm in order to see things for how they actually are.

2021.04.11 | Ajahn Anan discusses different types of emptiness and how to realize them—natural emptiness, emptiness from samadhi, and emptiness from wisdom.

2021.04.07 | We practice sila, samadhi, and panna, the path of virtue, collectedness, and wisdom—this cuts off clinging to views and conceit, thinking one is better, equal, or lesser.

2021.04.05 | If we live our lives without much awareness or attention, our minds will be unsettled and thinking without end. So we need to find some inner rest, and the place our hearts can relax and recharge is in the practice. Whether we use mantras or topics of contemplation, this path of meditation brings about calm and inner ease. This then forms a basis for the arising of insight.

2021.04.03 | In this talk, Ajahn Anan tells us of the ways that people can falsely believe in their attainments. For beings who have actually realized a stage of awakening, they won’t want to attach to it. They see that picking up anything—even awakening—is heavy and a cause of suffering. They understand that there is knowledge, but no one who knows.

2021.04.01 | Despite all the material development we’ve experienced, our hearts still suffer. No one has been able to invent a gadget to bring our minds to calm.

2021.03.28 | We practice restraint in virtue, to be mindful, to collect our minds in samadhi, and this allows the mind to see clearly that all conditioned phenomena are, by nature, unstable and ever changing. With this clear seeing, the mind realizes purity, Nibbana. Therefore, we have effort and firm intent to practise the Dhamma to see this for ourselves.
