Thank you, Ajahn Achalo, for this inspiring talk and for sharing your personal experience! I am a lay practitioner for 27 years and I am experiencing states of mind like you described here. So I find your words very encouraging. Will re-read Fire Sermon. May you be well and happy!

Thank you 💕🪷

A comparison of a burning house with the suffering mind is very helpful 🙏

Thank you for these much-needed words of encouragement.

Grateful for the teacher
