When visiting us at the Armadale Meditation Group, Ajahn Brahm always starts and ends the evening with humour. Tonight was no exception. Cleverly, Ajahn uses humour to bring us into the present moment. We are listening, we are focused, we are laughing and at ease. Forgotten are the troubles of the day, the plans for tomorrow. We are here in the present moment with Ajahn Brahm, listening intently to his jokes, funny stories and his instructions on meditation.
Ajahn Brahm led us in a thirty minute meditation easily enjoyed by beginners and experienced meditators alike. To begin, Ajahn simply asks us to make ourselves comfortable and as much as possible to relax. Not a traditional body sweep. Ajahn then progresses us to simply dealing with what is in front of us, rather than trying to suppress or dismiss our thoughts. Instead, encouraging us to focus on the silence between thoughts. As we practice this, the silence between thoughts gets longer.
After meditation Ajahn opened to questions. Several of the questions are those many of us face.

What should we do when we have thoughts, especially negative ones coming into our mind? Ajahn Brahm says that the more we try to get rid of them, the stronger they'll persist. Instead he encourages us to investigate the source of those thoughts.

Ajahn Jhanarato - Structured vs Unstructured Meditation - The Armadale Meditation Group
Wednesday Apr 10, 2019
Wednesday Apr 10, 2019
Ajahn Jhanarato prefers an unstructured meditation so begins the night by explaining why. We do have a tendency when learning something new to want or need instructions or structure. Though many of us still like to have a guided meditation, sometimes it's interesting to just start our meditation and see what arises.
Though preferring an unstructured meditation, Ajahn then led us through a longer than usual body sweep meditation.
