Directing the Mind Inside | Guided Buddhist Meditation | Ajahn Dhammasiha | Dhammagiri

We are far too occupied with external events: She said this, he did that, politics, social media, and so on... Our mind gets constantly pulled outside into the world.  In meditation, however, we direct the mind inside. We turn our attention to internal experience:  What do we feel?  What emotions do we experience?  Can we directly experience our physical body?  Once we become aware of our physical body and our internal feelings, thoughts, and emotions, we start to understand where they come from, what are the causes and conditions for them to arise.  Once we understand where they come from, we are able to abandon the harmful ones, and to cultivate the beneficial ones.
