Years ago, Ajahn Brahm, like many of us, had the difficulty in meditation "Why is it that my mind goes wandering off?" Ajahn answers that it was because what he was experiencing at the moment was not delightful enough. When your mind is wandering off, Ajahn encourages you to embrace your mind and stay in the moment. As your mind becomes still, the delight in meditation will start to build up.

How does one interpret the first precept in everyday life? Is being a Buddhist and a soldier mutually exclusive? Are there instances when one can perform a ‘mercy’ killing and not attract negative results? How does kamma work in relation to the murdering of living beings? How might society justly deal with such grievous actions and ultimately, how can one forgive?

Ajahn Santutthi teaches us that when our mind is calm it can listen to our own instruction to let go of thinking and be in the present moment. Ajahn also inspires us to deepen our practice to the point where meditation does not feel like a chore but our passion, something that we look forward to rather than feeling that it is something we have to do.

What Ajahn Santutthi likes about Buddhism is that we can learn the deeper parts of the teaching through the simple practice of meditation. Ajahn says that through meditation, we can understand kindness, clarity and a mind that is free from worry to name a few.

Ajahn Brahm gives a talk on meditation and how it works. One of the central principles and practices of Buddhism has been meditation. Those who know anything about the history of Buddhism know that it started with one person meditating under a tree. If there’s any holy book in Buddhism it is the holy book of meditation in which you can read in your own heart, in the stillness of your mind rather than any scripture.
