Kilesas: why do we take all this junk (past, futur, greed, anger, loneliness) with us? "Take a holiday from yourself" as Ayya Khema was saying; Samadhi: the key of samadhi is interest and determintation; Ajahn's personal story when he was a layperson and was setting up his sati: he was always training it (walking in the street or going to his work on his bike); "Everything else was unimportant" Other people and co-workers could have some fun about him but he didn't care and in the end, they change their mind. Walking & sitting meditation: can we get the same results?
