This recordings begins with a little bit of chanting, then an introduction to Ajahn Santutthi. Ajahn then guides a short meditation and gives a Dhamma talk.

All the way from Perth, we are honoured to present Ajahn Santutthi. Brick by humble brick, with unwavering effort to uphold the Dhamma, Ajahn builds his monastery for the benefit of the Dhamma. Today we go inside the mind of a great man, to find out how he stays equanimous amidst the turmoil of a fevered world and what Ajahn's attitude is, to staying strong in the face of the oppressive external expectations.

Often we think "no pain, no gain," however Ajahn Brahm says this is not true for meditation. Instead Ajahn teaches, "no delight, no depth." In other words, if you can’t relax and delight in the present moment, then you won’t go deeper in your meditation.
