Singapore Q&A 21.7.2023 (17:22-18:25)
Yogi: If I keep on contemplating about ageing and death, won’t I be thinking too much?
Sayadaw: Instead of contemplating, it is better to just recognize as a reminder that we’ll grow old and there will be pain – it is a process. You will not forget then.
When you contemplate, check if the mind is calm and peaceful. If the mind is not happy, then there is dosa. If so, it is not contemplating, it is complaining.
