Thanksgiving Retreat 2011, Session 6 – Nov. 24, 2011
11. “Hypothetically, a meditator through practice gains an experiential understanding of the Four Noble Truths and is established in mindfulness and equanimity. Life is good, and the glass is half full. However, there isn’t a belief in rebirth and that suffering will end in this lifetime. Why should the meditator continue of the path?” Answered by Ajahn Pasanno. [Four Noble Truths] [Happiness] [Rebirth] [Cessation of Suffering] // [Relinquishment]
