I hand over now to Achambhram.
Very good,
Welcome everyone to Friday Night Live at Nollamaa.
So,
To be live means to be alive and to be alive means to be here.
So,
If you can turn off your mobile phones,
That takes you away.
Once you turn off your mobile phone,
The next thing to turn off is your mobile mind,
Which also goes around all over the place and receives calls from the past and the future.
So please put yourself completely out of range,
Delete everything,
And we can start by pressing the delete button of sight by closing our eyes.
So sight,
Delete,
Close your eyes.
And when your eyes are closed,
You start to feel your body,
To experience it.
And as you remain with your eyes closed,
Focusing your attention on your physical body,
After a few moments,
Maybe a minute or two,
The awareness of the body will start to grow strong.
As you become sensitive to some of the feelings in your body.
And when you regret that sensitivity,
If you need to change a posture,
To move a leg,
To move a hand,
To stretch the back or whatever,
Now is the best time to move,
About a minute after closing your eyes,
When the sensitivity is established.
.
And when the body is well set up,
In other words,
You've felt the body,
You've adjusted the body,
So it's the maximum comfort,
It will never be perfect,
But it's good enough.
Then let go of the body and start focusing on the mind.
By that I mean we deliberately abandon all of the difficulties,
The problems,
The burdens and duties,
Which weigh us down and tire us.
In particular we start by letting go of concern for the past,
Disengaging from the future.
Whatever is going to happen next,
We'll see what happens.
We don't need to plan,
We don't need to anticipate,
Nor do we need to fear.
Just let the future run wrong.
As for the past,
It's all gone.
It's all dead moments,
And now we've buried the dead moments.
Instead of trying to learn from the past,
How about learning from the present,
By being here.
This is what I meant by Friday night live.
Alive to air broadcast of present moment awareness.
When all the past disappears,
When all the future vanishes,
What you're left with is called now.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Stay in the now as long as you can.
Just settling in the moment as you settle deeper and deeper into the present moment,
You should come closer and closer to the silence of the mind.
All speech in a commentary usually exists outside of the now,
Describing something which has just happened or thinking about something which might happen.
At the moment there's hardly anything to say.
As you deepen the present moment awareness,
You come closer and closer to silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Now if you want to watch the breath,
You can just know the feeling which tells you the breath is going in or the breath is going out.
It does not matter where you watch the breath.
Just to know breath going in or breath going out is enough.
Remember always silent in the moment,
One breath at a time.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
Silence.
So coming close to the end of another meditation period,
How do you feel?
What's the change since when you started?
Whatever peace,
Relaxation,
Freedom you feel,
This is the result of meditation.
This is why we meditate,
For peace,
For freedom,
And also seeing clearly.
I'm now going to ring the bell three times.
When the bell finishes sounding for that third time,
Please come out from your meditation.
Okay.
Silence.
Silence.
