It takes a strong person to be willing to face our own feelings and thoughts and not be deterred or give up. Without some determination, we will never get out of the Fisherman’s net. No matter how high we jump or which direction, we’re still caught. This method enables us to go beyond thought, opinions, analysis and all things that we normally do to improve ourselves. This is the real solution as the Buddha taught 2500 years ago. It is still taught because it still works for all who put forth the right effort.  Don’t be discouraged, just practice, just do it! Beyond what logic tells us is possible, sheer time and effort will help us make progress.

 

The path was laid out by nature, anyone who walks the path can make progress. We all have the same original mind that we need to uncover through our effort. No other activity is more worthy.

 

We are extremely fortunate to have Achan Da Nilpant and Achan Nipen Nontamart leading and guiding our meditation. Finding monks with this level of expertise is extremely rare. Take advantage, it’s an opportunity of a lifetime.
