How Letting Go & Meditation Happens | 2024

Ajahn Brahmali gives a talk on the process by which meditation happens, exploring the three key qualities namely letting go, enjoyment, and mindfulness with a particular focus on letting go as the foundational quality that allows the others to follow. He also describes the roles of other valuable meditation supports, including the gentle mind, morality (sila), and good company (kalyanamitta), as well as offering reflections on the chattering of the restless mind as it starts to relax and how thinking naturally fades away when the meditator recognizes the futility of solving life’s problems through thought.Recorded 2024-06-15-This talk by Ajahn Brahmali was recorded and made available for free distribution by the Buddhist Society of Western Australia (BWSA) under the ⁠Creative Commons⁠ license. ⁠You can support the Buddhist Society of Western Australia by pledging your support via their Ko-fi page.⁠
