Not Me, Not Mine: Better Let Go | Ajahn Dhammasiha | Buddhist Teaching Dhammagiri

After the meditation session, Ajahn Dhammasiha offers reflections on the realationship of Samatha/Samādhi (Calmness/Concentration) & Vipassana (Insight).

After the samatha meditation has weakened the mental hindrances, and suffused our mind with joy and brightness, we can develop insight by simply obesrving phenomena as they truly are.

If we are not distorting our experience of feelings, emotions, thoughts and perceptions due to delusion, but observe them as they really are, we recognize their impermanent and therefore ultimatley unsatisfactory nature.

And why would we want to hold on and regard as me and mine something that is impermanent and unsatisfactory?

Better to end all I-Making & Mine-Making, and to let go!
