Wisdom alongside meditation | EN | Ajahn Brahm*

Sometimes meditation is frustrating and disappointing, then we should practice insights. And just as in the story of Sam and Vi, each with their dog, Metta and Anapana, climbs a mountain both for deep peace and a clear view, so we can climb the meditation mountain inside.  But we have blind spots, we see only what we want to see, and don't see what we don't want to see. Real insights goes much deeper then you think is obvious, and wisdom is not believing what you see. And few stories highlight these blind spots. Basically, you need a strong mind to see clearly!  And on the way to the big insights and stages of awakening, there are many smaller wisdoms to develop − our minds have powerful abilities and we can even remembering our past lives.   This teaching was given in Oslo 2022:https://dnbf.org/en/2022/11/ajahn-brahm-weekend-retreat/ - - - Please, feel free to recommend this podcast to your friends!
