Sasanarakkha Buddhist Sanctuary Retreat Zoom Q&A Group A+B 16 January 2023 (1:12:04-1:13:58)
Yogi: When fear arises, I can be aware of the aversion and disliking attitude towards the fear. How else can I explore?
Sayadaw: You don’t need to explore; you just need to be content that you’re aware.
If you’re happy with yourself that you’re aware, you’ll continue to be aware. Then, when there is a lot of awareness, the mind will learn on its own and exploring will happen by itself.
The things you can be aware of are your feelings, body sensations and thoughts; that’s all you can be aware of.
What can be understood, the mind will do at its own pace. You just need to be happy that you’re aware.
