Day 3c – Questions and Answers

This is a compilation of the retreat given by Ajahn Asoko on 7-9 July 2023 at Amaravati Retreat Centre, UK. Questions are précised: 00:13 Q1 - Do you know what you are going to say at the start of a session? 12:34 Q2 - When there is pain or discomfort in meditation, my mind drops back into awareness-based knowing as it makes the pain more bearable. When the sensations are pleasant however I find it more difficult to connect to awareness. Do you have any advice? 15:56 Q3 - Once we [learn to] abide in awareness/consciousness, how can we find an appropriate action in the situation when it is required? 18:41 Q4 - I teach at a secondary school with kids having mental and emotional health issues. I’d like to offer mindfulness at lunch times. Do you have any suggestions for how to engage children?

This is a compilation of the retreat given by Ajahn Asoko on 7-9 July 2023 at Amaravati Retreat Centre, UK. Questions are précised 00:22 Q1 Why are we born? Is it the driving force of the sankharas? 15:23 Q2 What advice do you have for a chronic procrastinator? 18:13 Q3 What is the difference between impermanence, uncertainty and doubt? 21:32 Q4 How would you deal with a rat infestation in the monastery? 22:39 Q5 What is the best way to overcome the wandering mind when meditating? 31:50 Q6 It is clear that meditation has beauty in the life of the monk. Is there also room for the dynamic explosion of energy? 34:09 Q7 Can you add some reflections on the 32 parts of the body? 48:29 Q8 Could you please explain the difference between awareness, consciousness and mindfulness? 49:39 Q9 Is it accurate that when I see, hear, smell, taste, touch, and cognize through the senses they arise in consciousness? I react if they are not known and when they are known silence appears. 54:11 Q10 I understand bodies as being part of nature, naturally created within the heart of a star and ultimately will end up in a black hole. So none is “I”. But what about consciousness? Is it just an arrangement of atoms? 01:07:18 Q11 After walking meditation I sat down, not watching the breath and what I was seeing was the people and the trees, zooming in and out automatically. This lasted for about 10 minutes. Later I saw my daughter. Are these experiences fake or real?
