00:00 Piti is a process; elation; imagine that you’ve been without something

09:53 Being elated as an object of meditation: internally and externally; bliss; joy; rapture; spiritual peaks

23:59 The Lion King: finding sangha; no worries for the rest of your days; control of piti and sukha

32:18 The steps of ānāpānasati; being satisfied, comfortable, free from fear — the skill of elation; Artesian well example; kundalini

43:02 Internally: finding elation in the senses

47:53 Tying the metaphors together

50:25 Finding seclusion

51:35 First jhāna: bath powder, dough; one mind moment at a time
