Yogi: Whenever I see defilement, I can’t help but want to get rid of it.
Sayadaw: Don’t judge nature. Defilement is not good but it is also nature. We have to understand the nature of defilement.
First, we need to understand that defilement is nobody, it is nature. Craving is just craving, it is nature; anger is also nature. Getting rid of defilement is much later.
Every time defilement arises, you need to remind yourself that this is nature and I want to understand this nature of the defilement.
You need to appreciate the awareness every time defilement comes. Why? We can cultivate sati, samadhi and panna because of the defilement.
You can use this object to cultivate the quality of the awareness. If you think this way, you will not resist the defilement too much.
