Yogi: During a retreat, if I experience something that I have never had before and it is hard to name the experience, what should I do?

Sayadaw: If you don’t know how to name it, it is okay to call it an object or something being known.

Sometimes, it is hard to express because the experience is something new.

Even if we cannot think of a name, we can still understand that it’s an object; then, the mind won’t be agitated and go into thinking.
