00:00:00 The simile of the snake (MN 22) Dukkha, dukkha-nirodha; life is not dukkha

00:08:30 The second and third noble truths; the noble eightfold method is the solution

00:14:47 Seclusion and the purification of mind: right noble view, right sati; meta is the outcome of practice

00:20:42 Right effort: make a change right now; any thought can be improved

00:23:23 Wholesome and unwholesome thoughts; getting rid of the hindrances immediately; sukha

00:29:20 Right noble unification of mind with its supports and features (MN 117); samādhi

00:38:15 Right attitude: samma sankappa; the attitude of a winner, a lion

00:41:50 The Mahasi method: setting up your private accommodation in the city dump; the 16 stages of insight

00:47:36 Mahasi and Goenka are missing elements; work with the noble eightfold path

00:53:31 Breathing well; using body and mind to control feelings (MN 48)

01:00:29 Kusala and akusala; wholesome and unwholesome; to diagnose; stop wanting things

01:07:28 This is all you need; forget about it; throw it out

01:11:50 What is important to you? (MN 87)
