Talent or Striving, Which is More Important?
12/12/2021 Duração: 15minIn this videoconference talk from 8 Oct, 2021, Ajahn Anan talks about the results that come from past lives, and the effort that has to be made in this life, in order to meet with success.

But persistent effort must be made in this lifetime, and this must be imbued with Dhamma."

A Temporary Gathering of Elements

Refuge and Putting Down Burdens
07/12/2021 Duração: 13min2021.03.20 | We may think carrying a heavy block of gold will bring us happiness, but all we get is suffering, and there is no end to it. We all want lightness but pick up heaviness continuously. We carry burdens up until old age, sickness, and death, and then keep carrying it to the next birth as well. Seeing clearly the heavy object for what it is, we can realize lightness. To help realize this freedom, we go for refuge in the Buddha, Dhamma, and Sangha.
