For centuries, meditators have grappled with distraction, rumination, and obsessive thoughts during their practice. The Buddha addressed this challenge in a comprehensive discourse, offering five effective methods for skillfully managing unskillful mindstates. In this half-day program, we will look at this discourse (MN 20) and explore how to wisely apply its teachings to our thinking minds, both in meditation and daily life. We will also develop related skills, such as recognizing thoughts and effectively navigating through the five methods. Go here to register for this dana based event.
