1988-05-11 The Contemplative View 48:28
Ajahn Sucitto
Trust in the contemplative view and life simplifies by itself. Contemplation channels our ways of recognizing and knowing things so the awakening mind begins to cultivate wisdom. Then we can recognize why we experience suffering and put an end to it.

1988-05-09 Awakening to the Way Things Are 63:27
Ajahn Sucitto
We were all born with the capacity to be aware – this is the reflective mind. It has to be cultivated or it becomes distorted. Mindfulness of body and breathing helps slow the mind down so it can reflect, recognize that experience is conditioned, arising dependent upon circumstance. When mind awakens to the way things actually are, one touches the deathless.

1988-05-09 The Path of Direct Experience 59:24
Ajahn Sucitto
Thought is an abstraction – we step back from experience and form an idea, opinion, judgment. This Path steers away from thought, and inclines towards direct, felt experienced. Enter experience and work from within the doubt, confusion, aggression with a clear, pure Buddha mind, not the thinking mind. With this unification of mind there is the end of suffering.
