Yogi: I thought I was following Sayadaw’s instructions, but I wasn’t really doing it right. And it was inspiring today when I could really follow his instructions. 

The moment I could follow Sayadaw’s instructions, the mind changed and I could see things clearly. Confidence arose and I felt relieved.

Sayadaw: When the practice falls into place, it brings up a lot of faith and inspires the mind to continue. However, don’t discount the previous days – it was because the mind was trying those days that it fell into place today.

Yogi: I also appreciate the simplicity of Sayadaw’s instructions because they are really simple. It is incredible how we make them complicated and manage to entangle something that is really straight forward.

Sayadaw: It is the nature of the unwholesome minds to complicate things – that is their job.
