Marjolein Janssen: Cutting the Chain of Mental Proliferation

from Dharma Seed: dharma talks and meditation instruction · host Marjolein Janssen

(Insight Meditation Community of Richmond) From a simple moment of contact, the mind can create a lot of mental proliferation (papañca), leading to stress and conflict. This talk shows how to interrupt that process through clear, present-moment awareness, drawing on the Honey Ball sutta (MN18), and the Buddha's teachings to the wanderer Bahiya (Ud 1.10).
