TRUSTING THAT THE MIND KNOWS HOW TO PRACTICE

Sasanarakkha Buddhist Sanctuary Retreat Zoom Q&A Group A+B 16 January 2023 (38:15-39:17)

Yogi: Sayadaw, how do you consider your mindfulness in daily practice?

Sayadaw: I’m merely checking occasionally. I’m not concerned that sometimes I’m mindful and sometimes I’m not. I trust that the mindfulness knows how to do its work.

I regularly check in, not so much to see if it’s there or not, but if it’s good or not so good mindfulness, whether it is on the ball or not so on the ball.
