WHEN RIGHT ATTITUDE ARISES, AWARENESS FOLLOWS
Yogi: When any defilement arises, should we have the right attitude by saying it is only nature?
Sayadaw: Yes, when right attitude comes, then awareness follows. Right attitude is wisdom thinking; that’s why we call it right thought.
Because you hear about nature and have the knowledge of right attitude – the way to think – and you apply in your practice many, many times – over time, the mind understands the meaning of nature.
Later, you don’t need to intellectually apply too much right attitude because awareness and wisdom can arise together.
