Dhammagiri Buddhist Podcasts · 5 ноября 2026 г. · 26 мин
In this Dhamma Talk, Ajahn Dhammasiha explains the difference between superficial distractions in our meditation, and the deep underlying defilements that cause disturbance. The superficial distractions will gradually calm down if we diligently and patiently continue attending to our meditation object. They are just an echo of all the input we receive from conversations, social media, watching youtube and playing computer games, and so on. Therefore, it's also important to increase levels of sense retraint in our daily life to reduce the distractions. But there's also distractions that originate internally, from our desires & aversions, from greed, hatred and delsuion. These internally originated disturbances take longer to abandon. They have to be identified and addressed through the hard work of analysis, wisdom and insight in order to be weakend over years and decades, until they can finally be cut by profound insight in the experience of awakening.
