Singapore Q&A 21.7.2023 (00:21-02:40)
Yogi: How do I maintain interest in the practice?
Sayadaw: If you recognize the benefit of awareness, you’ll want to practice.
Do you understand the difference between being aware and not being aware? You’ll be interested if you can see the advantages of the practice.
The benefit is more obvious when people are suffering.
If you can notice the difference in the quality of mind when you’re aware and when you’re not aware, then you’ll be more interested in practicing.
Yogis try to meditate because they’ve already experienced something good from practicing.
