Thursday the 26th August,2010 - Dharma Discourse by Jeff Oliver.
Jeff:
Jeff has given a number of talks fat AriyasomVilla over the last year or so. Previously he practised both as a monk for 6 years, and as a layman under the tutelige of revered Burmese master U Janaka in the Mahasi Sayadaw lineage. More recently he has been practising with the Burmese master Sayadaw U Tejaniya.
Topic:
Much of dhamma is a small shift in attitude or focus of attention. Life goes on otherwise as normal – just like a small pinch of salt transforms the taste of some particular food. In particular, changing ones attitude to "Suffering" has big effects. Changing ones attitude to Vedana (liking and disliking – which rules the untrained heart) makes a huge difference. What shifts in attitude are required, or are useful? …..
