🙏🙏🙏

[@paragozar]

Thanks for all these, working on listening to each one.

[@Buddhist.Teachings]

You are welcome, these are great gems. Don't sleep on the Collected Teachings of Ajahn Chah. They offer a lot of wisdom as well.

[@paragozar]

It's funny you should say don't sleep because I often fall asleep listening at night and resume in the morning. But yeah, this is among the greatest teachings available of all time, just sitting here on KZbin .

[@Buddhist.Teachings]

Haha! The Ajahn Chah talks are much shorter... And I am with you, I dont listen to Sumedho Talks at night because they are just too long. ;-)

[@kalpanaperera7588]

Just exhausting to have an identity and keep it going … such a tiring illusion.

[@ilexevergreen5405]

Yes, tiring to respond to others about your outer shell & have them want reassurance of their outer shell
