0:00:01.035,0:00:05.945 When practiced at home, should I watch your[br]clip at the same time? 0:00:06.680,0:00:13.283 It's up to you. You will reach a point when[br]you have enough of my guidance. 0:00:13.417,0:00:18.867 You will want to practise on your own.[br]You don't want to listen anymore. Enough! 0:00:18.944,0:00:24.294 Before reaching that point, you're still hungry[br]of listening and reading. 0:00:24.677,0:00:33.927 It means you still want support and [br]motivation from teacher. If so, you need to listen. 0:00:34.329,0:00:39.329 At least, listening to my voice,[br]you would gain guided wisdom from me. 0:00:39.673,0:00:46.633 It helps you to understand but it won't last.[br]Dhamma is quite strange in this respect. 0:00:46.773,0:00:56.273 We think we understand but the knowledge can disappear,[br]not forget, disappear but you understand again. 0:00:56.471,0:01:03.221 Listening is a good reminder. [br]Each time will remind you of different thing. 0:01:03.316,0:01:11.816 I have lots of information to offer,[br]it's impossible for you to pick up everything! 0:01:11.918,0:01:18.894 Not like that. Listening again may help you to[br]pick up the bits you missed before. 0:01:18.894,0:01:24.744 You may think you focused well, [br]really concentrate. 0:01:24.860,0:01:31.290 But...why I never heard of this before, Ajahn![br]I can't remember you said this! 0:01:31.375,0:01:38.655 This happens to everyone because we[br]cannot pick up everything in one session. 0:01:38.740,0:01:43.940 You can't digest everything either, so[br]listening again helps you digest better. 0:01:44.039,0:01:51.069 Of what you missed. So, you don't listen[br]to dhamma just once, neither does reading. 0:01:51.230,0:01:58.750 My book, Auad-u-ta-ri, you should read once[br]in every 2-3 years. Reading the 1st time, 0:01:58.810,0:02:05.190 you may be at the bottom of the hill,[br]3 years later, you've progressed to midway, 0:02:05.287,0:02:09.637 So, you will understand what [br]you couldn't 3 years before although 0:02:09.708,0:02:15.428 you've been reading the same book.[br]So, wait another 5 years, you have more understanding. 0:02:15.516,0:02:26.223 Because your spiritual journey is progressing,[br]the same as listening to my teaching videos. 0:02:26.867,0:02:34.957 Likewise, if you still want to listen to me[br]in class, it means this young tree needs nurture. 0:02:35.184,0:02:41.954 If the main root is not deep enough to find [br]water by itself, then you still need help. 0:02:42.252,0:02:52.212 Such help is the support of [br]guided wisdom from teacher. 0:02:52.752,0:02:58.842 You also need inspiration. Besides,[br]listening to my voice 0:02:58.973,0:03:03.023 is a matter of resonating vibration[br]of energy, 0:03:03.234,0:03:13.124 My voice generate frequency of energy which can adjust your frequency, which could help you reach inner peace, 0:03:13.170,0:03:21.154 the goal, Nirvana, easily. This is[br]why people like listening to chanting. 0:03:21.340,0:03:30.849 Buddho, Buddho...such vibration [br]could connect you with Buddha's frequency. 0:03:31.625,0:03:38.465 That's why listening to teaching video[br]has several impacts. 0:03:38.565,0:03:44.195 But if you feel having enough of listening, you can stop[br]it means that you can rely on yourselve 0:03:44.283,0:03:49.763 you have gained your own intuitive wisdon[br]the result of your own practice. 0:03:49.821,0:03:56.121 You can be your own refuge. 0:03:56.328,0:04:03.298 So, you must observe your own feeling.[br]hungry for guidance or not. 0:04:03.469,0:04:09.859 sometime you do, sometime you don't. 0:04:10.152,0:04:14.422 Just observe and be sensitive of how you feel[br]no set rule. 0:04:14.510,0:04:18.350 This is just a general idea, understand?
