2016-09-10 Embodiment as Basic Sanity 34:59
Ajahn Sucitto

We can use the body as a means to pause from immediate reactions and perceptions. From this place we can extend, allowing a shift so that something more compassionate, spacious, and authentic can arise.

2016-09-10 Ground, Balance and Wholeness 33:10
Ajahn Sucitto

Guided Sitting Meditation: (Guidance begins at 10 min, and then again at 25 min) Ask the body to align and find balance, then allow it to happen through vitality versus will power. Look for wholeness with regards to physical pain: rather than splitting into a 'me' who has a stiff shoulder – can it be included?

2016-09-10 The Body's Intelligence 28:29
Ajahn Sucitto
Download Listen
Standing Meditation: The body has an intelligence that can't be figured out by the mind. It can find the place of least stress and effort, and establish balance. In this way, embodiment moderates the mind.

2016-09-10 Let Nature Take Its Course - Don't Interfere 46:29
Ajahn Sucitto
Download Listen
When we project forward into an imagined future – a "tele-reality" – this interferes with our natural sanity. When this tele-program is unplugged, empathy, ethical sense, and wisdom grow.

2016-09-10 Embodied Presence is Always Here 17:05
Ajahn Sucitto
Download Listen
Intro & Guided Meditation: Embodiment is not the visual or notional form of the body, but a domain of sensations, pressures, temperatures, and movements. When attention is turned to this embodied experience and we relax what doesn't need to be activated, calm and sensitivity are naturally generated.

Ajahn Sucitto

Ajahn describes two pilgrimages, one a six month to India's holy places (audio book here: https://whereareyougoing.podbean.com/), and one to Mount Kailash. 01:04:10 Q1 Did you cry ever? 01:04:33 Q2 Did you feel you achieved your objectives? 01:05:17 Q3 Would you recommend this to others? 01:06:26 Q4 Would you do it again? Q5 01:06:56 In Poland where I come from, a big religious [experience] is national sport, with thousands of people walking to the shrine [/ stadium]. It’s not a pilgrimage but a great sense of community, a mass movement. 01:07:46 Q6 What was the purpose of your talk this evening? 01:08:44 Q7 One of the things I got from reading the book, somehow we get the idea we should be getting somewhere in meditation, and this got smashed to pieces several times in the book.
