Sasanarakkha Buddhist Sanctuary Retreat Zoom Q&A Group A 6 January 2023 (30:55-34:25)
Yogi: I can feel that my practice is blocked and it cannot move forward.
Sayadaw: Nothing blocks you except your own beliefs. When we expect the practice to be like this and that to mean we’re improving, we’ll feel like our practice is not improving when we don’t get what we expect.
We’re not supposed to be thinking about where our practice is going; we’re only supposed to be practicing.
There is no block except our expectations. As long as we’re practicing, the practice is moving forward. We only have to check if we’re practicing.
Watch out for those expectations.
