Right Effort and Self Esteem | Ajahn Siripañño

Ajahn Siripañño discusses right effort and the influence of cultural attitudes in developing motivation to practice. He urges us to know ourselves. For example, how do we respond to teachers' methods, to stimulus? What is the right balance of effort and patience so that the practice is enjoyable, sustainable and leading to growth? When we get it right, then meditation can be effortless; like a springboard diver who performs a flawless dive.
